Back when, I tested myself on the 100 potential citz questions. I was mortified to get only 98 correct. I doubt that skoolchildren today could get more than 20 correct.

I heard a discussion not long ago. One guy trashed Bidementia and said, "If I were president, I'd have given those clowns [in Gaza] 24 hours to release all hostages alive and well. One minute past deadline, I'd turn their sand into glass and soak the remains in pigs' blood."

We hope to embed Mini-B. at a reasonable time, si man. We can itinerary either 2 ESs or one MS for Saturday, si man.

Party with the rubias after Mini-B. embedded, cavort we man.

Friday GS/ES report, see man: We itineraried 2 GSs and 2 ESs, balanced portfolio man. The GSs and second ES were duds, oh well man.

This piece also has the Thread-Reader version of Jonathan Turley's running comments during the SCOTUS hearing. Quite interesting, especially the line of questioning from Justice KBJ. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Supreme Court 'insurrection' hearing and the set-up that began before January 6, 2021 Those claiming that Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, ratified after the bloodiest war in American history to prevent states from packing Congress with former Confederates, now bars Trump from the ballot, argued their case before the Supreme Court today. Seemingly, it didn't go well for them. However, I want to take this opportunity to remind everyone that this day's argument was the culmination of a Uniparty set-up on January 6 to destroy Trump.

Ooo. Reaction? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Make the U.S. citizenship test harder Currently, a citizen wannabee only has to get 6 out of ten civics questions during the interview portion correct; that's about the equivalent of D-. That's simply not good enough for those who presume to assume the mantle of American. Even 7 out of 10 would be forgiving as that equates to about a C, but America begins with A. Not only must the passing threshold be increased, but the questions need to measure comprehensive civics knowledge, rather than just reward someone with sound short-term memory. It's simply too simple, even without the plethora of study guides. The USCIS is conducting a pilot test that replaces oral questions with multiple-choice questions. That's an improvement because their design requires a broader base of knowledge. An example can be found here.

Sen. Kennedy Just Levels Janet Yellen on Bidenomics and High Prices [...] "You're a good sport to go out every day and try to defend Bidenomics. It's like trying to defend a fungal infection. Bidenomics is really just paying more to live worse, isn't it?" Kennedy quipped. Then Kennedy asked her some very important questions about whether prices would be going down.

BREAKING: Biden's Unannounced Nighttime Speech an Absolute DISASTER [...] The address was scheduled for 7:45 p.m. but did not actually get underway until around 8 — well past his usual 7 p.m. bedtime.

He was belligerent and defensive, and it was a terrible look. [...] https://pjmedia.com/matt-margolis/2024/02/08/bidens-unannounced-nighttime-speech-an-absolute-disaster-n4926280

Colorado Had a Bad Day at SCOTUS on Trump DQ Let's preface this discussion by reminding ourselves that predicting a Supreme Court decision based on oral arguments is usually a fool's errand. Justices often engage in Socratic-method questioning of the lead attorneys, challenging them to allow a better exposition of their arguments, and to cover gaps that may have appeared in the motions. After spending my morning listening to the full two hours of argument, however, I do have one question. Will the decision to throw out Colorado's disqualification of Donald Trump be unanimous, 8-1, or 7-2?
