What drivelous bigoted drivel

You should be ashamed

[trebb]

Or maybe her senses are still intact and she remembers when education was the actual goal.

[MayflowerMadam]

I think it’s just the opposite. A much older person remembers what real education is.

[Chgogal]

A person in their 30s will have a Woke education. An eighty year old was educated when there was heft to the subject matters.

[Chgogal]

That is a plan I can get behind.

[Wallace T.]

The education someone in their 30s received would depend on whether he was educated in private or home schools vs. public schools. My homeschooling. My guess is that many younger politicians who are conservative are probably products of Christian schools or were homeschooled.

[Chgogal]

That’s your guess,

Homeland Security: Rep. Mark Green (Tenn.)
Green beat out Rep. Dan Crenshaw (Texas) to fill a vacancy created by former Rep. John Katko (N.Y.) retiring from Congress.

Green told reporters that he plans to have two full-time committee staffers working from the U.S.-Mexico border.

The staffers will ”be sitting there with [Customs and Border Protection],” Green said, “sending us real time updates on what CBP needs and the issues - whether it’s a big drug bust at the border, we’ll send a bunch of members down for, you know, for that and those kinds of things.”

The Homeland Security panel will have a major role in oversight and policy relating to the migration surge at the border, and plans to bring Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas in to testify. 

Green said that his focus will be not only on the physical border, but on cybersecurity and inter-agency responsibilities in the cyber space.

I’m stunned we chose a person who’s going to be 80 to run education. My gosh will she even remember being in school. This was a bad pick.

She voted against certifying the 2020 sham and supported the Texas v PA lawsuit challenging the results. Good enough for me.

[momincombatboots]

Eliminate every department of, except defense.. roll that back and it’s Happy Daysall over again.

[Alas Babylon!]

Jason Smith (R-MO) seems to be the most conservative of the four mentioned. The other three are all moderates.

Yeah, that's the problem with the Washington DC Republicans.

Only one out of four is conservative.

[Wallace T.]

I looked at several under-40 representatives in the 117th Congress, and here are the results:

Madison Cawthorn: Homeschooled
Jake LaTurner: Public school
Kat Commack: Public school

From the newest Republican members of the 118th Congress 41 and under:

Eli Crane: Public school
John James: Catholic school
George Santos: Public school
Mike Lawler: Public school
Nick Langworthy: Public school
Max Miller: Public school
Wesley Hunt: Private school

[shalom aleichem]

she’s the only one who an read and write cursive

[napscoordinator]

Definitely not. Baby boomers destroyed this country. They still want to continue to watch it until completely dead.

[bert]

You are incorrect. The woman is older than a baby boomer. You disparage an old lady with unfounded nonsense

Us octogenarians resent such upstart ignorance from prevailing

[napscoordinator]

Give me a break. You were the first one to complain about old people in congress. Now suddenly it’s cool to you. You are something else. She’s got more in common with baby boomers as she’s like 3 years older. She destroyed the country pretty easily as well. 80! I think you forgot how that was when you hit it 15 years ago.
