  1. I‘m neither an African or Hispanic American nor a person who feels he has the knowledge or experience to assert, as you do: “There is no reason that African Americans and Hispanics cannot emulate what recent immigrants do.” Your self-assured pontification on the matter is noted, if only for being consistent with your posting history,
  2. Because they are recent immigrants. The fact recent immigrants, regardless of race, frequently outperform established citizens is well documented. Sorry if this upsets your perforative view of particular race groups and your long expressed views of immigrants to the US. https://www.psychologytoday.com/gb/blog/nurturing-resilience/201910/why-do-immigrants-outperform-native-born-americans?amp https://www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/immigrants-outperform-native-born-americans-two-key-measures-financial-success-n1020291
  3. A bit like politicians making decisions on what medical procedures may or may not be performed.
  4. The utterances of other politicians are not the topic of discussion.
  5. Perhaps not without forethought. Oh and welcome to the Forum.
  6. I’m not a cocaine user so must ask. Do cocaine users usually leave their drugs lying around in places accessed by countless people to be easily found?
  7. Call me when Biden brags he shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and not lose support.
  8. Trump’s hysterical innuendo sounds an awful lot like that accusation confession thing of his.
  9. You need to be a bit more precise on who it is you are referring to.
  10. I can think of a number of laws to get all outraged and affronted over, this isn’t one of them. Not by a very long way is this a law I have any problem with.
  11. I confess, I gave a sigh of relief when my kids ignored being pointed at the Ivy League and chose instead to opt for Russel Group and LERU. Ivy League might give a young person a great head start, but it far too often comes at a ridiculously exorbitant cost to their parents.
  12. The specific US Federal law: https://www.justice.gov/criminal-ceos/extraterritorial-sexual-exploitation-children
  13. “Small businesses and manufacturers are warning that federal environmental regulations targeting certain chemicals will have a widespread negative impact on the economy.” More precisely, removing a chemical with serious health risks might have a negative impact on profits.
  14. An actual serious danger to children is under ‘House Arrest’. Not a lot of joined up thinking going on.
  15. He didn’t just buy’ the original, he paid way over the price to buy Twitter and he used a large wad of money belonging to a Saudi Arabian Prince to do so. Now his/their investment has a competitor on the horizon. Free market loving right-wingers are struggling with how to respond while keeping all their credibility intact.
  16. Come James, lighten up, competition is a good thing. Unless of course it’s competition against the Billionaire ‘Space Karen’ who you thought was going to champion the fight against those you disagree with.
  17. Just what Space Karen Musk doesn’t need.
  18. Sneak him out to the Walter Reid Memorial Hospital in the middle of the night, administer the Montreal Cognitive Assessment Test and never admit why. It’s the done thing.
  19. Biden’s relationships within his own family are a personal matter for him and his family. It’s a low bar to set but just so long as he doesn’t start wielding the power of the Presidency to forcibly remove other people’s children from their parents and throw other people’s kids in cages.
