Title IX violations? The Great Valley School District has made national headlines. A complaint filed by a former school board president is being investigated by the Civil Rights Office of the U.S. Department of Education. It alleges that district policies have subordinated the interests of biological girls to those of so-called transgenders. In related news, a detransitioned girl, subjected to reassignment surgery as a minor, won a $2 million judgment.

Funny how TDS leftists loved Tom Homan when he served in high-ranking immigration enforcement roles during Obama’s administration, where he was appointed Executive Director of Enforcement and Removal Operations at Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). In 2015, Obama awarded Homan the Presidential Rank Award. According to the Obama Administration: “Homan was a key official overseeing record-setting illegal immigrant deportations, with his agency carrying out over half a million deportations in 2013 alone.”

Grace, you truly are amazing. Not! Your submission, posted on February 6, was the most garbled application of words placed on paper. Everyone uses Google. The trick is not to use the first piece of information as fact. As in any research, one has to review and understand comparative articles before using them as a reference. Ask Mininninger; he uses it, and you didn’t list him. Perhaps you should learn to read first.

ICE left Minnesota, and the anti-ICE protesters are still rioting. They were so violent that the Minnesota State Patrol had to arrest scores of them. Do any of them have jobs other than protesting? Who has time to do this? Oh, that’s right, folks like Joshua Kagi, president of American Baptist Churches and a Pottstown councilman. He has time.

Logical Lady, you absolutely have someone speaking for you — it’s the Democrat Party. You know, the group that embraces socialism, taxation, public school unions, antisemitism, illegal immigrants, murderers, rapists, drug dealers, transnational gangs, sex traffickers, insurrectionists, election fraud, mandated vaccines, globalism, insider trading, Medicare fraud, anti-law enforcement rioters, and killing unborn babies. Quite the moral dream team. That’s your tribe, so sleep easy knowing they’ve got your voice … and your conscience.

The morons who say producing ID to be able to vote is unfair are obviously looking to cheat or defraud the election process, just like the state of Georgia did in 2020.
Mainstream MAGA
Don’t be surprised if Trump “finds” 11,779 votes in Fulton County, Georgia. He needs to satisfy his ego. They recounted the votes three times, with the same outcome. Even if he had won Georgia, which he didn’t, it still wouldn’t have been enough for him to win.
So initially, we learned about airflights with migrants flying all across our country at night, dropping them off. No one could explain what was going on. It was a secret. No one voted for this. No one was asked if they thought it was a good idea. We watched on TV thousands coming across the border, being told the border is closed. No Democrat politician is being honest with us about what they were doing.

President after president has routinely hosted a bipartisan governors’ conference in Washington, DC. Not this year, as the whiny, butthurt little man Felony Don the Lying Con is barring Democrat governors from this meeting. Just another vindictive, shortsighted move by this dementia addled wannabe dictator. MAGA — Morons Are Governing America.

Why is the NFL still pushing that divisive “Black national anthem”? There is no such thing. The NFL is the only institution doing it. You’d think they would be embarrassed. It’s so George Floyd. The NFL needs to get with the times.

More and more people like PK are seeing through the mainstream news media’s one-sided coverage. As The Mercury and Fox News report, Minneapolis protests and others are not “organic” but rather promoted, paid for, and led by not only elected officials but also by foreign countries. As PK said, people like Joshua Kagi are being used by these anarchists.

Priorities: We are led to believe that our government does not have the resources to provide affordable healthcare. This same government is spending billions of our money to fund ICE, which intimidates and threatens and attacks and arrests and kills American citizens. I reject these authoritarian priorities!

Marine Forever, Obama deported illegals back to their country of origin and without stepping on their human rights. Righty Tighty, wrong! Autopsies on Rachel and Alex have ruled their deaths as homicides. Joe Frank, despite MAGA misquoting and misjudging you, you always try to remain civil and informative. You prove you are a gentleman every time you have my back, and for that, I am grateful.

The real paid agitators are the Fox and NewsMax right-wing opinion pundits posing as journalists. Brought to you by Rupert Murdoch and Chris Ruddy. And AG – You must be new around here. I posted links and sources here until the links were no longer published. I always challenge MAGA to fact-check me. You might learn something. One can’t believe the truth and support Trump unless they’re irrational or straight-up bigots.

Yes, Real America, I have opinions of my own. I don’t fall in line with blue-haired, nose-ringed, tattooed middle-aged, man-hating women. I don’t like men in my restroom, or in my daughter’s sports or locker room. I don’t like $5 gas. I am pro-life. I don’t like illegal immigration. And most of all, I really, really like it when my husband opens my car door.

Buenos dias MAGAs! For the 13 people who watched the Kid Rock show during halftime of the Super Bowl, it was god-awful. Terrible guitar playing, wacky country music, disjointed lip-syncing by Rock, and in general, no rhythm at all. I remember when whites could dance. What the heck happened?
Lefty, Groovin
Thoughts on Bad Bunny’s performance: Imagine being so hateful that you can’t hear joy, just because it’s in Spanish. Being mad at Bad Bunny while eating chips and salsa with guac while drinking tequila is just wild!

I hate to admit it, but I missed going to the gym today. That makes 78 years or 28,470 days in a row.
