Polymarket still has Paxton with only a 40% chance to win. What's changed in the past 2 weeks that would indicate Talarico is being "exposed"? There are a few "boys in girls sports" commercials going around, and a strange "sold out to the Chinese" ad, but we're also seeing a lot of Paxton corruption ads and Adam Hoffman related ads.

So what do you think has changed that the prediction markets don't see?

Maybe its just for the lulz, and to watch the populist histrionics?

Oh noz! Consequences of my actions!

You were calling the 2 American citizens killed by ICE "terrorists" a day after they were killed. So was the administration, the same one you just posted propaganda for. You'll have to forgive the skepticism from all us "communists" on what you consider a "terrorist".

These race and gender studies programs teach critical research and writing. The premise is that there is something to discovery about a topic, and a way to explain that through research and writing. The actual topic of the project is much less important than the method.



What can one do with this outside of academia? Not arguing you're right. You are. But the utility, and the amount invested, is what i would question.
Guys, I agree that getting fed loan money out of the equation would be the best way to lower costs, I just don't think doing that for specific degrees will have the upstream impact on other degree costs. Not funding your gender studies degree won't make a university incentivised to charge me less to be an engineer.

Now if you remove ALL the loan money over a defined period, I have no doubt universities would have to adjust.

Goodbye to most of the classical western education. A degree in classic literature doesn't usually pay well. Philosophy doesn't pay well either.


I understand thinking they will do this stupidity, but my guess is this is more focused on "DEI" degrees. Women's studies. Racial studies. Gender studies. Etc...

I think they just have to advertise with a larger umbrella than what reality will end up being.

Just a guess though.

But there i another way.... Junior / community college.



I agree and support this direction. But GD convincing an 18 year old that this is an affordable, reasonable alternative is like trying to get legislation through this congress. :banghead:

Eliminate federal student loans.


100% agree with this. That's the only thing that will drive down tuition significantly.
Can we just make all the degrees more affordable, please?

I could understand PRIORITIZING those with additional criminal records, but you have to arrest all illegal aliens DHS encounters.


Sure. But you don't raid the beef packing plant full of illegals 1 month before midterms while beef is high as hell, and the ranchers associations for 3 GOP states are begging you to stop taking their help. Which is exactly what's happening

Funny story. I watched his son dominate his HS homecoming game at WR & QB last weekend. Tx 5A. He was better at WR. Looked like his dad a few times with the slant and the Acceleration over the middle.

Oh. Sorry. "Muh cheating." :rolleyes:

So you added a new meme to go with the 4 other responses you use exclusively? Just add "you voted for Kamala" to the bottom half of the meme so you don't have to think so hard about which to use.

Two bird with one stone, and all that.
