...a legal and valid election

Translation: If tRump wins the election.

With tRump calling election fraud without even one vote being cast. The insurrection ain't over.

I must say I don't understand the logic tying all these posts to Mike Whell other than to annoy him.

Given he's now banned from this forum for 6 months, what's the point?

Good point.

From page 2 in the site rules thread.

"We will also start enforcing the rule that is strictly enforced at AK: public discussions of moderation decisions are off limits. That means that if discipline is imposed, there will be no cartwheels of celebration or bitching about it being unfair. There are plenty of topics here for discussion. Moderation will not be one of them."

Since that member has garnered another time out and is unable to defend himself, let's cool it with the references to Whell unless you'd like to join him.

Thanks, mgmt.

Republican governors in 15 states reject summer food money for kids

The program is expected to serve 21 million youngsters starting around June, providing $2.5 billion in relief across the country.

The governors have given varying reasons for refusing to take part, from the price tag to the fact that the final details of the plan have yet to be worked out. Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds (R) said she saw no need to add money to a program that helps food-insecure youths “when childhood obesity has become an epidemic.” Nebraska Gov. Jim Pillen (R) said bluntly, “I don’t believe in welfare.”

But isn't tax cuts a form of welfare for the wealthy?

Those of the wealth are major campaign contributors. They "break off" a bit of those tax cuts' savings and they're redistributed in the form of campaign donations. Those 21 million youngsters are neither voters or campaign contributors. I bet lots of those that say all sorts of nasty things about such programs to feed kids are in favor of taxpayer funding of private schools.
