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.

https://www.chron.com/news/houston-texas/article/Ken-Paxton-suing-Biden-over-policy-protecting-17333016.php

Why the FUCK do these states want to discriminate against poor kids over this issue?!!!

If Paxton's office made an announcement, why doesnt this writer include it in its entirety?

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?"

Then you might want to learn to read.

You might want to learn to insert meaning into your posts.

When you link to a piece and comment accordingly, YOU own it.

From you, that's hilarious.

But no, I own making sure the subject of the link is there. I don't own editorial processes over the piece. The quotes from the statement were clear enough about what he meant and unlike OAN or Fox and its paper relatives, The Chron has no rep for distortion.

Throw these words into Google and the release will come up:

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.

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.

And your comment is not even slightly a response to Bart's comment, to which you appended it.

I believe you have read this all wrong.  Biden wants to take free lunch from everybody, not just LGBTQ

Kid is a twisted crackhead who has it all mixed up.

It makes him pretty common these days.

Just try to be best while those around you build back better. You will not be excluded any more than usual, I promise.

Maybe this should be put up on the Russia thread as well.

He wants to use that threat to get Texas to stop their threat to discriminate.

I think it's an asinine way to go about it, like threatening to take away highway money if a state won't agree to speed limit or safety belt requirements. But it is a standard tool in the Feds' arsenal.

Good try, asshole.

Man ( finally) Bites Dog

CNN has ended Reliable Sources mainly because viewers found the program totally UNRELIABLE
Brian Stelter has been fired coming on the heels of the canning of legal commentator Jeffrey Toobin gives us hope that CNN will stop sucking up to democrats and at least try to be journalists, not paid members of the DNC.

Ward is not a reliable source, unless you mean for misinformation.

Reality is a Democratic plot to dim wards whiteness. The thing that bothers ward about it is how well it works.

There was no misinformation in any part of my post.
