Hey! Today’s one of those Mondays that you can listen to David Waldman, but you aren’t required to use headphones! (Unless you’re shoveling snow.)
Greg Dworkin was also observing Martin Luther King Jr. Day this morning, but not the time, so he was a bit late to the KITM patter party today.
Across the nation, MLK Jr. is universally venerated. Of course, conservatives prefer their leftist heroes quiet beneath the ground. Glenn Youngkin helped tamp down the grave with a “day one” signing of an executive order banning divisive uppityness in K-12 education. Divisiveness has been a problem in schools since… well, that’s something we shouldn’t be discussing in schools, isn’t it? Cuckoo Wren Williams in fact prefers students know something less than nothing and his “day one” action was to submit a bill to mandate that. Wren, of course copied someone else’s work for his submission. Youngkin also mandated the elimination of mask mandates for schools, but existing levels of education encouraged Virginians to not comply.
Some believe female soldiers look a little girly dancing.
If actual Census figures got out, just think of how divisive that could be! Stupidity is being mandated across the country, which journalists will tell you is a clever move by Republicans, lest some of their wokeness might peek out. The most trusted man in America, Joe Rogan may speak out as he wishes, but all others better watch their step. Many Supreme Court Justices fall right into the middle of the Fox News demographic and behave accordingly. The GQP has determined election outcomes to be incredibly divisive and to be eliminated, but earlier outcomes might still need to be addressed after the midterm elections.
Russia is having a frustrating time getting the US to obey Trump-like to their commands these days. Denmark is warning of a rising threat from Russia, China, Iran and others, including phoning in threats to family members.
Oh, and there’s Omicron still, which hasn’t peaked yet, but reading the tea leaves Greg predicts things might become much better in the next short period of time.
