This is partisan thinking at its worst. "Oh, I don't care if Trump shoots a guy on Fifth Avenue. He has an R next to his name, so he can't be worse than the Democrat!"

He is. And quite frankly, the clown show in the House of Representatives shows they all are.

I am so bleeping sick of partisanism
.

Maybe there are milder forms of partisanship that are fine, but what has happened now is that a great many people reflexively defend/support statements or actions solely because someone on "our side" did or did it, and they oppose criticize something solely because it has been supported by the "other side".

So they'll oppose aid to Ukraine solely because Biden supports it.  Or they'll oppose any more funds to Ukraine because Trump does, only until the moment Trump decides that forgiveable loans are fine, at which point they'll flip their position without batting an eye.

We should support or oppose actions, and defend or criticize statements, based not upon who did or said it, but upon the substance.  And that seems to have been lost by many, especially the die-hard MAGA types.

President Joe Biden appeared to confuse the Israeli port city of Haifa with the Palestinian town of Rafah in the Gaza Strip during an interview on Wednesday in his home town Scranton, Pennsylvania.

In video circulated by the Republican National Committee — but evidently cut from the version of the interview that  eventually aired on TV stations — Biden claimed credit for having pressured Israel not to launch an attack on its own city:
 
The president was apparently trying to claim credit for pressuring Israel, in response to a question about how he had responded to anti-Israel, pro-Palestinian protesters who have followed him for months.

Defunding NPR has been on the "to do" list for 30 years. Republicans have consistently refused to do so.

PBS, too.  And yet, here they remain after 30 years (or so).

If you don't like it, you're free to leave.  North Korea is taking applications.

Claudine Gay to Teach 'Research Ethics' Class

No, this is not the Babylon Bee. It is real life on an Ivy League campus.

Claudine Gay, as you recall, is the utterly disgraced former president of Harvard University who put herself in the crosshairs by defending calls for genocide and then was exposed as a serial plagiarist.
 

It seems right for a professor to teach research ethics to Ivy League students. Who better?


I read the news earlier this week on The College Fix, and never got around to writing about it. But as it is Friday and I am in need of a bit of humor to end my week, I decided to take a stab at it.

The GOP has punted the ball to the Dems because House GOP has no game plan.

Once again, the GOP does not know how to be a governing majority party, proving it deserves to be in the minority again.
