Is the show called Dumb & Dumber or Beavis and Butthead or The Bald Man & the Tramp?
Frankly, yes, because if that was all a student learned about they would not end up well educated. For example, I was an English major in college. You might consider that worthless, but I went to law school and ended up doing very well. If instead of English I had majored in "business" or something allegedly more useful, I would (arguably) not have been as well prepared for law school.
Jemele Hill is a full fledged moron.
Jan 6ers sure are triggered.
Yeah...I cna't imagine subscriptions will be on the rise with that pairing.
Does Rex know Jemele essentially hates white people based on skin color

CNN Poll: Most Biden detractors say he's done nothing they like since becoming president | CNN Politics
Nearly 6 in 10 Americans disapprove of how Joe Biden is handling his presidency, with most of that group saying there's literally nothing Biden has done since taking office that they approve of. The finding, from a CNN Poll conducted by SSRS in January and February, highlights the entrenched...www.cnn.com
I don't disagree with the life skills and common sense things. That is one thing that schools have gotten away from that kids need. I do think that allowing parents to determine what is taught, not taught and such is opening a door for chaos. People on this board nearly come to virtual punches over a ball game can you imagine what those meetings would be like?
They just put out a memo in my highly woke corporate office in Washington D.C.:
"Anyone who violates company policy as it pertains to making an off-color joke, a racist or sexist remark, an unwanted sexual advance or a statement that could trigger repressed anxieties in a co-worker will be required to watch 30 hours of the Rex Chapman-Jemele Hill subscription podcast on CNN."
I think they have finally come up with a plan that will stamp out all political incorrectness.

Adidas has a bra for that.
Rex reminds me of a pedophile. The bald head, gap tooth, no visible eyebrows. One strange, strange looking dude.
Seems silly but the ire should be at the Randi Weingarten types that drove it to this point.

The Good:
The vaccine distribution system was good.
I'm good with the Infrastructure Bill.
I think he is handling the Russia crisis pretty well.
The Bad:
I think how we exited Afghanistan was a big mistake. That's also on our actual military commanders.
I don't like the "smoke kit" federal monies regardless of whether a crack pipe is included or not.
He botched the border issue initially. Trump went too far right/he went too far left.
His vaccine mandates for private sector companies was a huge government overreach.
I've got nothing against Rex Chapman's opinions. I've just got my fingers crossed that he isn't on the air long enough to embarrass the BBN by saying or doing something inappropriate.
Basic high school curriculum:
Mandatory
Math

Foreign language
Computer class
Physical education/study hall if you play sports
Electives
Civics
Finance
Health
Accounting
Industrial arts
Home economics

Probably forgot a few electives - but that’s pretty much it, how f’ing hard is it? If the lefties woulda stuck to this the parents wouldn’t be throwing a fit.

I didn’t say that was all they would learn. Just examples of things no longer taught in any significance in primary and secondary schools. After my earlier post I considered going back to edit adding law overview classes as curriculum needed.
Go to college to study and major in whatever you want. But primary and secondary education needs a significant revamping. It’s been a disaster since the creation of the DOE, whether that’s a causation or not.
It’s a faulty idea to think that every, or even most, students need to go to college for a generic four year degree. The result is we’ve pumped out a generation of students that aren’t particularly skilled in anything and can’t do basic everyday tasks, whether those are trade skills or not running up an enormous amount of debt.
For context, I went to a private school 9 out of 12 years (all of high school) and have a bachelor’s degree. I can say without hesitation that there was a lot of content that just didn’t have real world application or was useful outside of knowing it for exams.
He's got every right to his opinions; just like I have the right not to listen to him. Thankfully the paywall virtually ensures I won't be subjected to his ramblings.
You're good with the same Infrastructure Bill that includes a Vehicle Mileage use tax? A tax on the hardworking poor and middle class Americans who commute to work daily? The same people Biden promised taxes wouldn't be raised on? Will this tax be in addition to the gas taxes we pay at the pump or will it replace those taxes? only about 25% of that bill is going to Fix the roads, bridges and transportation systems. The rest is filled with pork and Green New Deal nonsense, with some social justice nonsense thrown in to boot.
It's already been mentioned but teachers need to take back the teachers union and the dept of education. They don't represent teachers, students or education anymore. It's all politics.
It's also mostly directed at JCPS. They are out of control and nuts.
Legislature doesn't get involved until it has to.

Purdue Pharma picked up the slack.
This is my personal opinion, so take it for what it's worth. I think civics (meaning education about our governmental system, why we do what we do, how it works, etc.) and economics (macro and micro) should be mandatory. Civics may already be, but I'm sure economics is not. I think one of the biggest problems we have is ignorance about why our system of government is structured the way it is and economic ignorance. I see politicians say some of the dumbest things in terms of economics and people fall for it because they don't have a clue about the subject. In fact, I think both of those are far more important and relevant than a foreign language.
This is self inflicted. I have absolutely no sympathy for the school board or schools. Nonsense over the last 2 years and all of it in general has been incredibly disappointing. Enrolled my daughter in private school and will be doing it for my other 2. Never in a million years would I have thought I would be doing that. Let the schools get infiltrated with nonsense and now you see nonsense from the other side. You’ve been shit for 2 years so you can f*ck off and deal with the consequences.
Look at this shit. This is what you’re spending time on in public schools? Want to teach kids how to read an interpret actual data about masking instead? I hope Darlene from BFE makes it so all you can teach is Thomas the train in the sixth grade you DBs
He's good with all of it. He's all about the cause.

You mean Trump's vaccine distribution system.
As for infrastructure, they're saying you can't take new land for road right of ways, just improve existing footprint. So new & wider bridges & more lanes for any road are out the door. Big reason is so more of money can be used on upgrading public transportation.
Trump didn't go too far right on border. Just what do you mean?
You must think inflation is great.
Supply chain shortages must be great too.
Ivermectin that is prescribed by your doctor and distributed at your local pharmacy is not a horse dewormer. That is medication 100% for humans. You’re lying, just like your CNN heroes.
Need a Subway Usage Tax. City dwellers can't be exempt. Ankle bracelet monitors on all riders. You're exempt if you get mugged in the station on train or pushed onto the tracks.
This is not during the school day.
It’s not even clear that it’s in a school. (It might be)
It’s a bunch of kids on the mayor student advisory board, in the northeast, in a metropolitan city, with kids who are interested in government.
She’s not a teacher.
Anything else I need to point out?
