The person lying about that was Trump's own Inspector General. Of course he came out with some lame excuse later to cover up how bad that was. So was the General who walked with Trump lying when he apologized for it?? Trump and his lying cronies are FOS.
Dude I posted links from credible news sources. Game over lol. But in all seriousness, when people have TDS, Trump can never be vindicated of anything. Suddenly “conspiracy” (because that’s what it would be called if someone questioned an official release from Biden) is acceptable and we can’t trust them.

But honestly I’m done debating all of this. We are going to believe what we are going to believe. You have yourself a good day.

-no. You may not know this but Cuba existed pre-castro...he slaughtered and displaced anyone who wasn't on board with being a soviet satellite.
Yes. Those cars are foreign made from before the embargo. Cuba never had an auto industry because they were right next door to us and just imported everything. Castro didn’t destroy their domestic auto manufacturing. They never had it to begin with.

99 percent of the BS comes from the state dept of Ed and the Ky Legislature. The local school is just stuck trying to carry out all of the mandates, laws, regs and BS that rains down on them from above. The average local school in Kentucky is stuck in the middle of a sh"" sandwich between the dept of ed/state politicians/parents and the local school board.
I'm not saying schools shouldn't have some accountability.....but when you spend more time documenting what you are doing every day to prove you are accountable than you spend actually teaching....it is out of control.
Agree 100%

And why do they have to drive those cars? Because they can’t get new ones. Why can’t they get new ones? The capitalist embargo. They aligned with our enemies so we destroyed their island nation that relies on imports. We’re the ones to blame for the material conditions in Cuba.
U're 1 sick sob.

-but he destroyed the relationship with Cubas largest trading partner.

^it wasn't "our" fault as you stated, it was Castro and his gangs fault.

I agree. I enjoy the debate even if we don't always agree. I do try to at least not be too much of an azzhole about it. I think we do agree on some things sometimes.

Just released? That article was from Jan. 27th. Damn near a month ago.
You are correct. I didn't look at the date. They got some money but not as much as they were entitled to. Again...I think the freezing of the Go Fund Me is government overreach. The only problem I have had with the trucker protest is their long term shutdown of roads/bridges. Other than that I support their right to protest and think the Canadian government has been surprisingly heavy handed and authoritarian with their counter measures.
Clearing roads and arresting folks is ok....but freezing their assets, go fund me's and closing down restaurants that serve truckers is BS.

Ridiculous. We could have just, you know, not done it. They didn't force us to do anything. That's weakling talk.

We didn’t stop them from trading with others. If other countries stopped trading, it’s because they also wanted to. I’m sure they’ve got more than enough support from Russia. Castro got rich off the backs of his countrymen.
 
-dafuq are you talking about, dion.

-castros Cuba was a soviet satellite. The stated goal of the soviets was to bring down the USofA...why the hell would we play nice with them*.

*I mean we did feed the soviets for the majority of their existence. Grain from the Great plains kept their population from staving to death.

-anywho. This shouldn't bother you as all these dudes we're talking about weren't *real* communists, amirite?

Well there is is. Russia takes eastern Ukraine with a stroke of the pen. Pretty much what I was trying to tell @vhcat70 would happen. Now russia will move into protect that region and they will be welcomed in Donbas. Another Crimea where Russia just takes what it wants. Sanctions will do zero and if Ukraine tries to take it back Russia will plow them all the way to Hungary.
 
We don't have money for pensions, teacher raises, new buildings, better benefits, school security or sub pay raises.....but we have money to help private schools.
People think the schools are bad now? They have no idea what is coming Kentucky's way in the next decade. Our schools now will look like a mini Harvard compared to the garbage dump public schools are heading toward. Mark my words.
Yeah Ky kids and parents are gonna love the people with no training, no long term commitment, no education or any proven ability to run a classroom or school. But just keep on bashing teachers right? You reap what you sow.

These states adopted the same laws and policies Kentucky is currently adopting.

Eff you dude, they threatened us with effing NUKES, you lousy piece of human debris.
 
I don’t know any profession that has exhibited more defensiveness than teaching. They deflect and complain all the time. They act as if they were tricked into becoming teachers or are forced labor. Then they run around acting like no one else could do their jobs. No other profession I can think of acts as much a victim as teachers.

While I respect people who go into teaching and know there are people who have sacrificed to serve in that capacity and who do great work, it’s the whiners who make the profession insufferable.

And the stated goal of NATO was to bring down the USSR. I’m against all the proxy wars, Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan. That includes Cuba and the economic aggression.
 
I can't and won't defend teaching pre k kids about sh** like you mentioned. I have no idea where that is going on but I bet it isn't in Kentucky or 99.9 percent of the schools across America. Using one insane example to paint the entire education system as crazed is ridiculous.
It is not the numbers or 2+2 that the racial bias graphic is about. It has to do with asking yourself how hard you push the students in your class to achieve. It has to do with the types of examples you use in your word problems that some kids relate to better than others. It has to do with the types of projects and hands on activities you use. There is nothing wrong with trying to reach every kid in your room and get the most out of them. Self reflection and striving to be the best teacher you can be for ALL your students is a good thing....not a thing to be vilified.

So SCIENCE DUDE, you recommend we use math word problems like from season one of The Wire?

When Wallace's sister came figure out a math problem and he asks her if she has ____ # of packages, and sells ____ to so and so, and then to so and so, and then gets recapped, how many caps does she now have? She gets it right and he says, why can't you do that with school? She says, cause if I get the count wrong out here, I get beat.
Or Venus from WKRP in Cincinnati? Teaching the atomic structure to young toughs?

Lol

You mean like this?

A) that has nothing to do with bail and dismissal of criminal charges, you clown.

B) they only did that after the spectacular backlash they were getting. They realized they just basically destroyed their own business model. Idiots.

I have never defended the Canadian government freezing anyone's assets. That is government overreach....kinda like when Trump used the national guard to clear peaceful BLM protesters for a photo op holding a Bible.
BTW...I was an absolute professional and NEVER discussed politics with my students aside from current events or history related content to which I NEVER took a side or gave my opinion. My students never had any idea who I voted for or to what political party I belonged.

Funny you say that, yet every point someone brings up, you and your Neverending TDS immediately compare it to some nonsense fake news showing that Trump did it first, amd Trump was ackshuallllly much much worser!

Public schools are a colossal failure in some areas. Why must the kids in those schools remain trapped there under the thumb of teacher unions?

Something stopping them from building a car factory? They have plenty of natural resources, I'm sure.

But sure, blame the USA.. last I checked, Cuba was open to most of the rest of the world. You might not be aware, but lots of Europeans vacation there, amdoad up on cheap cigars. Lol.

So socialism fails when it can't deal with capitalists?

Why don’t you do us a favor and name a communist economy that exists alongside a democratic political system.

You won’t, because controlling property must by definition mean eliminating individual liberty.
Why don't you do us a favor and name a communist economy that exists alongside any political system.

You won't, because there haven't been any.

Nope. Just calling out hypocrisy from both sides when I see it.
You can't scream bloody murder about BLM blocking bridges then clap 👏 when it's the Canadian truckers doing it.
You can't scream bloody murder about BLM using donations or Go Fund Me accounts to help with legal fees or bail $$$
but cry when the trucker's Go Fund Me gets shut down.
You can't scream bloody murder about the Canadian government using heavy handed approaches to squash the trucker resistance but cheer when Trump uses the national guard to tear gas and attack peaceful protesters in order to get a photo op in front of a church with the Bible.

I think the Canadian government is dead wrong about some of their approaches to this issue...but I'm at least consistent about calling it out on both sides.
