Boy, a bunch of crap has happened/come out the last couple of days,

including discovering that George Washington, were he to come back for a day, might take up a whip and go through the university named after him.
George Washington University in Washington, D.C., has apparently decided that giving students more “flexibility” means freeing them from taking required courses in U.S. History — even if they’re history majors.

According to The College Fix, the new requirements allow for students to take an optional course in previously required courses, or a high score on a placement test to opt out of the requirement, but the mandate to take U.S. history is no longer in effect.


As noted, even if this had been the right address/right people, what moron thought this would be a good action to take?
Officers from the New York Police Department raided a Brooklyn home on Thursday, arrested the family living there, and then posted pictures to Snapchat—yes, really—with the caption "Merry Christmas Its [sic] NYPD."
It wasn't until later that the cops realized they had raided the wrong house, and arrested and publicly humiliated the wrong people.
'Unprofessional' is an understatement.
"The worst part was the Snapchats," Kimberly Santiago, one of the people wrongfully arrested in Thursday's incident, told the TV station. "He doesn't deserve to be a police officer. If he does that, what other things he does on the low that nobody knows?"
Exactly the problem with a lot of other crap some departments let a cop get away with.


Same as "You don't need a gun(or any other weapon), the cops will take care of you", isn't it?  Which means the gun bigots are acting just like the British who pushed us into the Revolutionary War.


Suddenly, it seems, the left has discovered freedom of association. After years of telling religious people that they had a moral and legal obligation to throw out their religion and serve same-sex weddings, provide contraception, and fund abortion, the left now realizes that the ability to pick and choose those to whom you give your services is actually rather vital.

Don’t expect it to last.

Of course artists should be able to turn down clients. So should religious bakers. But you won’t see the left acknowledge that. The only freedom to turn down clients is the freedom for leftists to turn down conservative and religious clients, not the other way around.


We've got a bunch of people who seem to want to follow the lead of the PRC on 'fake news'.  With themselves being the definers of 'fake'.


Actually, considering some of the crap he's thrown out, the message could just be "Ignore the Archbishop of Canterbury."


Once again: Che really was a murdering, torturing, tyranny-minded little shit.  "But he looks so good on a shirt!" isn't a defense.


Apparently another of Trump's appointees is someone that bastard McConnell doesn't like.  Good.  Worth it just for that.


Socialism!
Between 2012 and 2015, "the rate of death among babies under a month old increased more than a hundredfold in public hospitals run by the Health Ministry", the New York Times reported in May. "The rate of death among new mothers in those hospitals increased by almost five times in the same period."
When you've screwed things up this badly, that anyone can continue to pretend things are glorious, and defend this, is a definite sign of insanity.
