[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] In April, the University's Senate Committee on Curricular Affairs passed the 'Removal of Gendered & Binary Terms from Course and Program Descriptions'
The senate recommended replacing freshman/sophomore/junior/senior with 'first-year',' second-year' etc.
Other recommendations included replacing 'underclassmen' and 'upperclassmen' with 'lower division' and 'upper division'
The phrase 'him or her' was also replaced with 'them' in a bid to become gender neutral
Reaction to the resolution online has been mixed, with some people mocking the move as a failed attempt to be 'woke'

They should stop using words altogether. I mean, they're speaking *English*, fer cripes sake. If that isn't the language of dead white men, then I don't know what.

Ah, 'Penn" state, university and state, are named after that white male William Penn. Talk about white male oppression, but act on that. Got to get a new name.
#8
How the hell is "Senior" a male word? These people are insane, ... or else this is more deliberate mangling of language to unhinge any rational thinkers and enforce NewSpeak.

[NYPOST] Rep. The Ageless and Downright Brilliant Comrade Maxine Impeach 45! Waters ...U.S. Representative for California's 43rd congressional district, serving since 1991, a total of 29.45497 years. A member of the Democratic Party, she is the most senior of the twelve black women currently serving in the United States Congress, and a member and former chair of the Congressional Black Caucus. Before becoming a member of Congress she served in the California Assembly, to which she was first elected back when Disco was in flower, in 1976, which would make it 44.45292 years. She has been a politician for virtually all her adult life. If she was a little brighter she'd be a Communist... (D-Calif.) may not be the biggest fan of police, but she apparently has no qualms about federal air marshals.
The liberal politician is among the members of Congress from both parties accused of turning a program created to protect airline passengers in the wake of 9/11 into a "concierge service," Fox News reported Friday.
According to the Air Marshal National Council union, politicians began requesting extra protection while traveling to and from their districts — and even while going on vacation — in the wake of the deadly Jan. 6 riot at the US Capitol.
In response to those requests, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) allegedly began pulling marshals from flights deemed "high-risk" so that they could protect members of Congress instead.
One of those was Waters, who flew from Washington to Minneapolis last month during the late stages of the trial of former police officer Derek Chauvin in the death of George Floyd.
During her visit, Waters made headlines when she told news hounds that if Chauvin wasn’t convicted, anti-police protesters would have to "stay on the street and we’ve got to get more active, we’ve got to get more confrontational."
According to a House Ethics Committee ...think of a nudibranch pretending to be a vertebrate... complaint, Waters was accompanied on her April 17 flight to Minneapolis by two armed Capitol Police and two U.S. Secret Service agents, according to the report.
She then requested two air marshals to join her on the plane and two more to escort her through the Minneapolis airport when she arrived.
U.S. Capitol Police denied to Fox News that any of their officers accompanied Waters.
The complaint states that the air marshals were moved off a high-risk flight to accompany Waters to Minnesota. The flight they were moved from allegedly "took off with no armed law enforcement on board leaving a gap in National Security."
"That was not an official business trip," Air Marshal National Council executive director Sonya Hightower LoBasco told Fox News. "We still don’t have any justification as to why government resources were utilized to fly Ms. Waters out to Minnesota."

"Abuse of power, abuse of authority, in the form of "malfeasance in office" or "official misconduct"

The Capitol Police are federal LEO’s and have concurrent jurisdiction nationwide. Protecting Members of Congress by direction of the Speaker is authorized. She does NOT rate USSS protection so who directed it?
[Red State] Joe Biden wants to present this image of himself as the congenial moderate who wants to unify everyone.
As we’ve seen so far, his first few months have been anything but.
It’s apparently not great for the folks working with him behind the scenes either.
As we saw during the campaign, Biden lost his temper multiple times with voters and reporters, two groups you would think you’d be trying to court while you’re running, not yell or scream at. He called one girl a "dog-faced pony soldier," insulted another man with "Look, fat," even challenged a voter to "go outside" and told him that he was "full of sh**." He even put his hands on a reporter after the reporter kept pushing him on a question. Biden was always losing it when someone actually dared to challenge him. And that was even in public, with all kinds of reporters on him, watching his every move.
What must it be like in private, when he doesn’t even have that stricture of being in public? Apparently not good.

'When queried about his first hundred days the president threw himself to the ground and began to rapidly describe a broad circle with his legs while screaming 'Moe, Larry the cheese' in a high pitched voice.'
#10
He knows the democratic representation system is almost finished. Even the 'resistance' is well and done with, after the overreaction on capitol hill.
Dictators and crooks who come to power through coups and takeovers usually behave the same. They know there is no opposition coming now. Until the people themselves drag them out and lynch them.
This one will wither and flounder and leave the Harris woman in charge. And if you think this is irresponsible behaviour watch then.
#11
That's what happens when your meds aren't just right. My guess is that they, including Doctor Jill, have Biden so hopped up on prescription drugs that if it isn't just right he goes off like this. I've seen it happen.
[DAILYCALLER] Rep. Liz Cheney’s ouster proved Republicans are a bigger threat than the 9/11 hijackers who killed thousands of Americans, according to a USA Today editorial. Umm... Threat to what?
The removal of Cheney from her leadership position suggests that the GOP has endorsed election fraud conspiracy theories, USA Today editor David Mastio wrote in a Thursday editorial. Endorsing such conspiracy theories, which allege that President Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. Old, boring, a plagiarist, fond of hair sniffing and grabbing the protruding parts of women, and not whatcha call brilliant... or is that an act?... didn’t actually win the election, poses a bigger threat to the U.S. than 9/11 hijackers ever did, he said.
"The fact that the majority of Republicans believe our election was stolen is a sure sign that more violence is to come," Mastio wrote, according to USA Today.
"After 9/11, the leaders, financiers and backers of the turbans had had their one shot at tearing America down," he said. "Their only hope was to hide in caves and pray we wouldn’t find them. After Jan. 6, the leaders, financiers and backers of the insurrection feel no such fear."
Cheney has been an outspoken critic of former President Donald Trump ...The tack in the backside of the Democratic Party... and of allegations that the 2020 election was stolen. The Wyoming Republican Party censured Cheney after she voted to impeach Trump over his alleged incitement of the Capitol riot.
Republicans voted to oust Cheney from her position as conference chair, the third-highest ranking position in the House GOP caucus, on Wednesday. Rep. Elise Stefanick, a Trump ally, was elected as Cheney’s replacement on Friday.

Truly a substance free editorial. Accuse your opponents of being conspiracy freaks (why, you must be craaaazy!), make a bogus assertion of continued violence (hey, what about BLM & Antifa, huh?), and the belief that your political opponents are comparable to Islamic nutbags intent on death and nothing else.
Some things shall not be challenged, or questioned.

Our local newspaper of record was bought out by USA Today (Gannett Publishing) a few years back. It has sucked big time ever since. We dumped it shortly after they turned left.
This headline likening the Cheney ouster to the 911 hijackers is not a great surprise.

Solution: .68 cal paintball Claymore that can be attached to front bumper, grill, roof rack that can be rudimentarily camo'd as fog lights. Replace paintballs with pepperballs. Each mine is armed with 22 balls. Be sure to pay the few extra $ for the remote triggers.

Lots of "missing" ballots in the Maricopa County recount, up to 17.5% missing in individual pallets. That's before any canvassing for invalid mail in ballots. Yet, the Republicans the the real threat to "democracy".
Same here in my Middle eastern GA. area.
Gannett Publishing purchased the newspaper laid off a lot of local staff and start using Inter-Sate and International resources to put the paper out and website together.
USA Today (Gannett Publishing) subscribers and renewals dropped to such a LOW number. That they have been offering 6 months for $1 ... yes one ($1).
Pre Gannett Publishing, the Augusta Chronicle use to have an great paper with a open but monitored Public comment section on any article except (AP) articles.
That also quickly ended with the take over by Gannett Publishing.
Then it was constantly select for publication ANTI-TRUMP letters to the Editor and Anti-Conservative Rants and Raves. Then no public comments allowed.
Given how many 100's of outlets USA Today - Gannett Publishing owns, it seem like a Lawyer looking for $$$$$ would file a ANTI-TRUST suit and restriction of trade by Monopoly.

Gannett has become the largest newspaper publishing company in America. It is headquartered in Tysons Corner, VA (McLean, Virginia mailing adress).
[FOXNEWS] The Biden administration was slapped with a lawsuit on Friday after Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton launched a suit countering changes to the state’s federally funded portion of Medicaid last month.
In April, the administration rescinded a Trump-era eight-year extension to provide billions of dollars in federal funds annually for Texas’ uninsured residents, which was set to expire next year.
While the move does not revoke healthcare funding through 2022, Paxton called it an "unlawful abuse of power aimed at sovereign states."
"The Biden Administration cannot simply breach a contract and topple Texas’s Medicaid system without warning," he said in a Friday statement.
Texas has held a waiver agreement with the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services since 2011, which reimburses hospitals for the "uncompensated care" provided to uninsured individuals along with innovative health care projects.
The Trump-granted extension would have continued funding for hospital reimbursements through 2030 but would have dropped the innovation funds allotted through the waiver.

Surprise! The Socialists don't really believe in socialism, they just believe in The Bloc.
[AMERICANTHINKER] Sure looks that way. Seven weeks after being named Biden's border czar, she's in some sort of defiance against the job Biden gave her and racking up failures. The attorney general of Arizona is calling on Biden to fire her. According to the Washington Examiner:
"Her response to the border crisis has been absolutely abysmal, so I am requesting that she be replaced as your 'border czar,'" Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich wrote in a letter to Biden.
Maybe "abysmal" is what Joe wants. But on the other hand, the nonstop news of Biden/Harris administration's border failures aren't helping Joe at the polls, either. He's holding up personally, for now, but the public is against his border policy, according to this poll cited by Joe Concha. Harris, however, is underwater, and her failure to do her job as border czar is the major reason. It's only a matter of time before the erosion of standing moves to Joe, and the public starts blaming him, too.

The handwringing by the conservative press regarding the Biden/Harris border is a joke.
There is no border crises, to the progressives, the situation is exactly as they want.
[ENGLISH.AAWSAT] The Biden administration notified Congress this week that it will send millions of dollars in US assistance to the Paleostinians aimed at promoting peace with Israel even as violence between the two sides rages.
As the conflict intensifies despite US calls for restraint, the administration notified Congress on Thursday that it will provide $10 million to Paleostinian groups in the West Bank and Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... to support exchange and reconciliation projects with Israelis. The recipients of the aid were not named.
The State Department said Friday that the money is part of more than $100 million that the administration allocated to the Paleostinians earlier this year, reversing a near total cutoff in support under former President Donald Trump ...Perhaps no man has ever had as much fun being president of the US... In a notice to politicians obtained by The News Agency that Dare Not be Named, the US Agency for International Development said the $10 million would go to support "people-to-people efforts to bring together conflict-affected groups to address divisions that may be rooted in group differences such as ethnicity, religion, status, class, or political affiliation in areas affected by conflict and civil war."
It said the money would be spent mainly on cross-border projects between Israel and the West Bank and Gaza, but might also include programs for Jews and Arabs living in Israel.
The fighting between the two sides has been intensifying, with rocket attacks from Hamas, the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,forces of Evil in Gaza on Israel and increasing retaliation from the Israeli military. Violence between Arabs and Jews within Israel has also been increasing.
The Biden administration has made no secret of its belief that Trump’s approach to the Mideast, which alienated the Paleostinians, was flawed and made prospects for peace less likely. The administration has announced $130 million in assistance to the Paleostinians, which appears aimed at encouraging them to return to negotiations with Israel.

Ya know, we could cut out the middleman here and rocket Tel Aviv ourselves. Prolly save a bunch of money. Makes the scam a bit too obvious though.
Plus all those disappointed people who were counting on getting their beaks wet. A cynical person might think beak-wetting was the whole point of this exercise.
