Gran is right....we need Scott to replace Ronna....he IS the head of the RNC!! The REAL RNC, that is. (I think it was Gran who mentioned this...apologies, if not.)
Why PDJT continues to prop her up, is beyond me. I know he knows a LOT more than I do, but...confounding, nonetheless.
Scott is doing the Lord’s work, with his grass roots efforts.
Wow.....if true!
Not sure if I’d offer the $100M bucks, though. Maybe a % of earnings.
That’s just me.
I wonder what Mad Max Waters will say about this. For decades she was on the Rs for sending crack to black neighborhoods.
LOL, LG is feisty this morning!
Now I’m spent on another errand, got to run to Home Depot to get some tile samples. I guess I’ll have to wait till this afternoon to find out what’s new with the Truckers.
BBL
crispy looks so soft, plump and fluffy, sweet taste to the swamp.
Not that I believe we should be funding Community College either, but Brandon chose crack pipes over college. No student loan forgiveness, no community college, this won’t go over too well with the youth votes.
First lady Jill Biden acknowledges goal of free community college is dead, for now

Washington — First lady Dr. Jill Biden admitted Monday that her goal of establishing government-backed, free community college for eligible students is not going to happen — at least not anytime soon or as part of some modified version of President Biden’s Build Back Better agenda.
The legislation is languishing on Capitol Hill, where its key opponent, Senator Joe Manchin, a Democrat from West Virginia, says he is not going to do anything to revive it as originally written. But Manchin and other Democrats are hoping to salvage at least some of the proposals through far more modest legislation.
Biden told a national association of community college leaders that Congress has so far failed to pass the Build Back Better plan “and free community college is no longer a part of that package. We knew that this wasn’t going to be easy — and Joe has always said that. Still, like you, I was disappointed. Because, like you, these aren’t just bills or budgets to me. We know what they mean for real people, for our students.”
“And it was a real lesson in human nature that some people just don’t get that,” she said.
It is highly unusual for first ladies to wade into policy fights, especially when it’s to admit that their signature issue of concern is on the fritz. But Biden is the first first lady to keep her full-time day job as a community college professor, so her staff says he’s eager to remain engaged on the subject.
And she’s not giving up entirely. In her speech, she added that the president is still fighting for the issue: “Joe doesn’t quit. He doesn’t give up. He is keeping his promise to rebuild our middle class, and he knows that community colleges do just that. He knows that you are our greatest resource and our best investment. He will keep fighting for us.”
News of the first lady’s speech was first reported by The New York Times.
Mr. Biden put forth last year his sprawling $3.5 trillion domestic policy agenda, which included plans for free community college, paid family and sick leave and free pre-Kindergarten. But the proposal was scaled back to address concerns from Manchin and Senator Kyrsten Sinema, a Democrat from Arizona, over its price tag, and proposals for free community college and a paid leave program were dropped.
While the House passed a version of the social spending plan in November, the legislation in its revamped form suffered a fatal blow in the Senate after Manchin announced in December he could not support the proposal.
Mr. Biden told reporters during a press conference last month he believes the Democratic-led Congress could approve “pieces, big chunks” of his signature spending package and acknowledged Democrats are “going to have to probably break it up.”
But Manchin last week reiterated the legislation is “dead.” Still, he did not rule out supporting a smaller measure.

It was me!
Scott is such a terrific young man who has a couple of really terrific parents behind him.
Remember he couldn’t do what he does without their full support and help.
I send stuff to Cruz`s site. But I don’t know if you have to have an address in the State they represent. 123 ABC Street, Trumpville, SC.
I haven’t since I found they almost wholly use illegal workers.
Very good!
Can’t believe it’s not the Bee. So will they only distribute to racial minorities? Remember back when it was said that the government put drugs out in black neighborhoods to eliminate them?
All I see is two small blue and white boxes.

lol, I just posted something similar. This would make a great ad targeted to black voters.
*HUG*
Thanks!
Hummmmm, I wonder why?
This would make a great ad targeted to black voters.
No kidding....NO free college, but FREE crack pipes, in the hood.
I’m sure Ronna, Midge and Keven McCarthy-Luntz are working on this, now.
Not.
Thanks for confirming.
I didn’t know that, about his folks. That’s great!
