When I say some some historians will tell you... the point I’m making is that there are alternative viewpoints out there from people with phds..

it’s not all cut and dry like we learn in social studies in govt school

Yeah but come one, admit it, you qualify that it comes from a historian because you figure that gives it more weight. Unfortunately just because people have phds doesn't mean they are free from bias or that they are above cherry picking data to suit their own personal beliefs/opinions.

You also did it again in another post above where you say that because allegedly the chief of the Capital police said to Congress that zero guns were found on anyone inside the Capital you're not going to accept anything to the contrary because that would mean he's lying to Congress, as if nobody ever lies to Congress. Of course that's not the real story because you obviously took your story from someone else's talking point or you remembered something you heard on the news incorrectly. It wasn't the Chief of Capital police that told Congress that no guns were found, it was the FBI counterterrorism division's assistant director Jill Sanborn who said that the FBI didn't find any guns and since that suited Republican Senator Ron Johnson's agenda (he's the one that asked Sanborn if guns were found) he didn't question further and you're also omitting the first part of Sanborn’s response, when she declined to speak for the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department or U.S. Capitol Police. Since this misreporting came from The Epoch Times, I'm guessing that's where you got it from or from some other source wanting to downplay what happened on January 6th.

trump canceled on July 4th... By republicans. In Alabama. lol.


Canceled Trump rally in Mobile leads to political finger-pointing
https://www.fox10tv.com/news/mobile_...f0d6515a5.html


The Alabama Republican Party had former President Donald Trump lined up to speak at the event Saturday against the backdrop of the USS Alabama Battleship. But planning hit a snag over concerns that the even would violate the USS Alabama Battleship Commission’s ban on partisan political events and, perhaps, even state law.

A member of Trump’s team, who spoke on FOX10 News on condition of anonymity, rejected that explanation on Tuesday. He laid the blame squarely on the shoulders of Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey, calling it a “purely political decision by the governor’s office.”


But but but... liberal college campuses....

Michelle Fiscus, a pediatrician and state medical director involved in overseeing vaccinations in Tennessee shared a memo that outlined the state law regarding vaccinations and minors. The memo found its way to social media and Tennessean lawmakers were upset that older kids have the right to make some decisions on their own. Their collective response was to have Dr Fiscus fired.

just saw that on local news. her treatment by the state (for stating a fact about TN law; it was ruled on by the TN Supreme court in 1987) is just another in a long line of embarrassments for the state, with Senator Marsha Blackburn being another....

Would also likely have to do with the fact that in the last few years producing 'American made' motorcycles isn't very financially productive anymore.

Lolapalooza should have canceled this old douchebag long ago. Where the hell did they find him, and is this what Lalapalooza is these days? Limp Bizkit and DaBaby?

Is this your last year in attendance, NEW ENGLAND?
