I suspect that their population decline is having an impact on Putin's attitude and actions, beyond just this issue:

https://www.cnn.com/2022/08/18/europe/putin-mother-heroine-award-decree-intl/index.html

I also suspect that the money is unlikely to be enough to prompt parents who are 'merely' at 5 children, for example, to try to flesh it out to 10.

Even a math dunce can compute the yawning gap beween the cost of having ten children and raising them and $16K.  Never mind the gross insult to women, returning them to the status of breeding machines.
Having children is a gross insult to women?
How?

Working for Putin explicitly, now, huh?

Getting paid to have children is a gross insult.

Texas joins 21 other states that have declared war on LGBTQ school children and teens who qualify for free school lunches, to try to block their access that the Biden administration is insisting upon.

Why the FUCK do these states want to discriminate against poor kids over this issue?!!!
Because it has nothing to do with discrimination.

Your words have nothing to do with logic.
LOL!
Because it has nothing to do with discrimination.
Which is why you have no argument.

You can repeat yourself as often as you would like.

But you have said nothing to support your empty words.

Singling out a group that is often discriminated against to say they should receive no protections and should be able to be excluded from a service is discriminatory.

I wish Charlie was not running in this primary.

In addition to campaigning on the Them mahfuckahs crazy! Dems have to sell on how they working toward the future and how the GOP screwing young people.

Charlie is going to try and appeal to the reasonable Republicans (and no, there is no silent majority out there) and in doing leave the people who have grown through 9/11 in elementary school, two wars, two economic crises, a million people dead from a global pandemic and because they were in lockdown they watched a man murdered by the police.

They then saw the defeated political party attempt to overturn the election where THEY turned out and overwhelmed the GOP voter suppression strategies.

Then they saw the defeated party mount a violent assault to overthrow the government and come damn close to succeeding.

Then that same party used the Supreme Court they stacked to declare women are no longer full citizens.

That demographic is not even thirty years old and they grew up in an era of mass shootings in schools, movie theaters and concerts.

And people wonder about these kids?

I am glad it is not not worse (even though it is) but those are people you should target, the ones who will still be fairly young 15 years from now.

When the Republicans yap about inflation you say shut the fuck up!

You voted against the Inflation Reduction Act! Tell the people WHY!

In politics if you are explaining you are losing and the GOP has a whole lot of explaining to do

Try as I might, I cannot fathom Paxton's assertion that "regulatory chaos" will result from NOT witholding free lunches from children who are already qualified for them.

You continue your habit of vacuous statements, claiming others are wrong, while offering no support for your position.

IOW, your lack of credibility is well earned.

Quote
Edward Luce of the Financial Times observed today: "I've covered extremism and violent ideologies around the world over my career. Have never come across a political force more nihilistic, dangerous & contemptible than today's Republicans. Nothing close."

Shocking though that observation was, it was nothing compared to what came next. General Michael Hayden, former director of the Central Intelligence Agency under presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama, retweeted Luce and commented: "I agree. And I was the CIA Director[.]"

Just a snippet from a fairly long piece that touches on many different problems with today's GOP and its view of America.

One of the things Cox Richardson mentions that I've read elsewhere, but which I don't recall seeing here is Secret Service's sitting on a threat to Pelosi for several days, then telling the Capitol Police about it on the evening of Jan 6, after the insurrection had come and gone.

This is bizarre and fucked up.

Why the fuck are you asking us to explain to you what the Houston Chronicle's policies are for articles?!

(a) You could write to the Chron and ask, yourself.

(b) If you actually care about what they said, you could look that up, as well!

But (c) it seems far more likely that you are seeking to diminish the information by belittling the writing, rather than engaging with the substance of the piece, about which you have expressed no opinion other than to cast doubt about whether such an announcement was made.

"If Paxton's office made an announcement..."

Why on Earth phrase it that way, rather than just, "why didn't the Chron include the whole announcement with the story?"
