A nice story!-----“What are we doing for the farm girls?”
In December 1909, at a teachers’ conference in Columbia, South Carolina, a government speaker stood proudly explaining a new federal program for boys. - Things You Didn’t Know About Animals and Nature Young farm boys across the South were receiving seed, land, and agricultural training.
Their crops were producing harvests far larger than their fathers had ever managed.
Newspapers called it progress.
Officials called it a success.
- At the back of the room sat a 27-year-old schoolteacher named Marie Cromer.
- She taught in a one-room schoolhouse in rural Aiken County.
She was the teacher, the principal, the administrator, and often the only educated adult many children saw all week.
- She listened quietly.
- Then she raised her hand.
- “What are we doing for the farm girls?”...

Rep. Josh Gottheimer, D-N.J., said, "This is a seismic shift in supporting a key ally, and I think it's a devastating shift. I think people are bowing to political pressure instead of actually looking at the facts on this."
Reports blamed the shift against Israel on the democracy's response to the 2023 terror attack by Hamas, whose members invaded Israel and slaughtered some 1,200 innocent civilians, often in horrific fashion.
Marco Rubio: A war against domestic terrorism - American Thinker
As he stated, "It is time to crush this evil forever.” - Matthew G. Andersson
Moreover, he put his finger on where this ideology comes from, what fuels it, and what protects it:
- His concept of terrorism got at the heart of what fuels it: radical progressive leftism.
Moreover, he put his finger on where this ideology comes from, what fuels it, and what protects it:
- universities,
- media and
- the courts.
Domestic radicalism has many roots and branches, but those three institutions make up the primary “radicalism triangle” that is self-reinforcing.
- Their common output is language and ideology.
- Radical ideology works through symbols and words...

'Jarring': Democrats, CNN talking heads whine about Hegseth's plan to maximize testosterone in the military | Blaze Media:
"The key here is that many young men have low testosterone levels, which puts them at a disadvantage in terms of muscle mass, energy, and that could be an issue if you are in combat," Khera said.
Khera noted that while you have to be careful not to give someone testosterone unless "they do have some kind of symptoms," the benefits of hormone replacement therapy are increased muscle mass, decreased risk for depression, and decreased fatty deposits.
Damn good response!-----Statement on President Trump's Speech Regarding Muskegon:- Muskegon County Republican Party | Facebook
Last night on July 16, 2026, President Donald Trump mentioned Muskegon in his speech about election integrity. - Muskegon County Republican PartyLet’s take a moment and review the facts based on our conversations with the Muskegon Police Department and the Prosecutor’s office.
- During the election cycle of 2020, it was reported that an individual (female) had been detained with thousands of ballots.
- Prior to being detained, she had put an undisclosed number of absentee ballots in one of the ballot boxes and had more in her car. She also had in her possession a map of other ballot box locations to drop off more ballots.
- She was basically a “mule.”
- She admitted she was receiving gift cards in lieu of payment for what she dropped off.
- This was first investigated by the Muskegon Police Department, who then turned it over to the Prosecutor's office.
- The Prosecutor turned it over to the State Police, who then turned it over to the FBI.
- We have not received any further updates regarding this situation for close to 6 years, and there have been no prosecutions.
- Once it was turned over to the FBI, the situation and case seemed to have disappeared.

Even Under Trump, FBI Fights FOIAs That Would Show How Much Agency Paid Big Tech to Censor Conservatives
Even Under Trump, FBI Fights FOIAs That Would Show How Much Agency Paid Big Tech to Censor Conservatives:
Never assume that the federal government’s perennial resistance to transparency stems from something passive and morally neutral like institutional sclerosis.
Instead, consider whether federal agencies’ determination to preserve secrecy through every change of administration has a much darker explanation.
Pay for your own master's degree in puppetry
Don't ask taxpayers to foot the bill. - Joanne Jacobs
- Under the new Student Tuition and Transparency System (STATS), students won't be able to get federal loans for "undergraduate programs whose graduates cannot out-earn a typical high school diploma holder and graduate programs whose alumni cannot beat a typical bachelor’s holder...
- "If a program cannot show that it leaves its graduates financially better off than if they had never enrolled, it should not be underwritten by federal taxpayers," said Under Secretary of Education Nicholas Kent.
We are being told that the wildfires in Ontario are being driven / fueled by climate change.
Specifically, more extreme heat and increased drought.
So, unlike the journalists and most meteorologists regurgitating these talking points, I looked at the actual data since 1910. - Chris Martz@ChrisMartzWX
- There isn't much of a trend there; in fact there is a significant decrease in the worst of the drought categories despite the spike in 2023–24.
Very few people these days in this line of work build datasets from scratch.
But I do it because if someone makes a claim, it's very easy to test said claims against observational data.
In most cases, alarmist narratives crumble with scrutiny.
- While alarmists get the basics right about the physics of Global Warming Theory in an “all else being equal” hypothetical, the real-world is a far more complex and details are hairy.
