I'll be so curious where he decides to go to school.
The education he got (or didn't get) there may make his entire college experience a surprise.
Not sure yet. There's some pretty powerful forces against it going mainstream. Hard to say.
.
That looks so good. Thank you. Is it going to be on Prime?
New documentary going to be coming out, Long Knife. Takes off from Killers of The Flowers Moon. Leonardo DiCaprio's father is an executive producer of it. One of the most, if not the most influence of our politics and our environment today.
.
It's really hard to escape a cult. It would be hard to imagine he hasn't already been brainwashed by the Koch school he's been going to.
This isn't the first time I've seen Drudge flip on Trump.
Yes, I think it may be. But perhaps that's what he wants.
The entire school sounds insane. I'm sure we'll all be interested to find out where Barron chooses to go to college. Wherever it is, the diversity will be a shock to his system.
That is rather surprising.
I particularly find this member of the board interesting.
James Golden
James Golden is a talk radio producer, call screener, and radio host best known for working 30 years with The Rush Limbaugh Show. Since 2001, he has been a producer/executive for Premiere Networks, the largest radio syndication company in the United States. As a senior partner of Golden Creative Communications, LLC., he launched a podcast, Rush Limbaugh: The Man Behind the GoldenEIB Microphone, on iHeart Radio. On August 23, 2021, he returned to WABC and sister station WLIR-FM to host a 4:00-5:00 afternoon show and Saturdays 7:00-10:00 am. He is also the author of the book Rush on The Radio: A Tribute from His Sidekick of 30 Years, published in November 2021.
That figures. He was a big supporter of Romney, but his Wikipedia page says nothing about Trumpty.
Oddly, I went to the Oxbridge Academy's site to confirm that the graduation ceremony is on the 17th at 7 p.m., but could find no information about it at all. Maybe the school's just trying to keep gawkers away.
Another weird and strange school. Their board of trustees reads like right wing podcast.
Who owns Who owns Oxbridge Academy?
Koch founded Oxbridge Academy in 2011 and has donated more than $100 million since the school's inception. He is also the founder of Oxbow Carbon LLC, one of the world's largest refinery and natural gas byproducts recyclers.?

You missed the point
I think we already knew that. And... yes, we did:

I was a victim of misinformation that's been going around. Mostly that he didn't go to the high school grads is what's out there, but I guess there's versions of the college ones too.
I only know that he attended Tiffany's because there were photos of him there. Naturally Marla Maples was there as well. I don't think Melania was.
But of course in this case, he made a big deal of telling his supporters that he and "the family" had been planning for this enormously important event "for years".

I stand corrected. I was a victim of misinformation that's been going around. Mostly that he didn't go to the high school grads is what's out there, but I guess there's versions of the college ones too.
Trump's still a traitor, criminal, rapist, officially was the worst president on record, lacking any ability to lead, mentally destitute, emotionionaly disabled, a want to be dictator, and won't even be able to wipe his own ass within a couple of years, that's if he can do it now. I'm afraid to say how I really feel.
But yes, Traitor trump went to his kids graduations and according to Snopes, this will be his first one missed if he doesn't go. Not entirely sure how long he was at any of them, maybe only made an appearance. I don't think he could maintain for any length of time in that setting now, he can barely maintain for a shorter time, less aggressive atmosphere rally where he just goes on autopilot and it doesn't matter to the cult that many of the things he says don't make any sense.
Court time is taking a toll, and the only way he is even to do that is by sitting deadweight like Jabba the Hutt, sleep, fart, and do the one trick he knows to the cameras at the end.
Trump Never Attended Any of His Children's High School or College Graduations?
The former president's complaint that he might be unable to attend his son Barron's high school graduation due to his trial spawned misinformation.

Federal judge indefinitely postpones Trump classified documents trial
https://www.cnn.com/2024/05/07/politics/judge-postpones-trump-classified-documents-trial/index.html
Cannon indefinitely postpones Trump’s Mar-a-Lago documents trial
Judge Aileen Cannon has indefinitely postponed former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago documents case, punting some court dates into late July while declining to set a trial date.
The Tuesday order — issued less than two weeks before Trump’s trial was still on the books to kick off on May 20 — leaves unclear when Trump’s case will ever come before a jury.
Cannon pinned the delay on the need to resolve numerous issues dealing with how classified information will be handled at trial, details governed by the Classified Information Procedures Act (CIPA).
“The Court also determines that finalization of a trial date at this juncture—before resolution of the myriad and interconnected pre-trial and CIPA issues remaining and forthcoming—would be imprudent and inconsistent with the Court’s duty to fully and fairly consider the various pending pre-trial motions before the Court,” Cannon wrote.

Apparently some apes also make and use stone tools...
Good article. I wonder what plants the Orangutan used to heal his injury? And that picture is so cool!
You're probably right. I wonder how long they've been using spears. Did they first see a human doing it, or did they figure it out themselves? According to this person, they learned from local fishermen:
A male Orangutan clinging to an overhanging branch imitates the local fishermen to spear a fish with a pole on the Gohang river of Borneo island. They have been documented to be using tools for quite a long time, but this picture is extraordinary. pic.twitter.com/JcN0SQ3OU0

I bet if someone came in to teach the orangutans how to make the forks themselves, they would quickly learn how to do that.
Orangutans are very smart, and a lot like us. There's a video making the rounds at X of one mashing up leaves with antibiotic properties to put on a wound on its face. And the leaves worked; the wound healed. They also use spears to catch fish.
Many years ago, I read a story about orangutans at a reserve in Southeast Asia. They were stealing the knives and forks of tourists, because they wanted to use them... to eat. The reserve authorities were appalled, and made sure the tourists didn't bring that kind of thing in, because forks would artificially "humanize" the apes.
And at the time, I wondered if we have the right to do that. The orangutans seem to want to "improve" themselves. Why should we stop them from doing that? It's like trying to make some "unspoiled" Amazonian tribe of humans stay that way.
Judge shopping again!
New York’s abortion rights amendment thrown off ballot, for now
Democrats plan to appeal with the assumption that Democratic-dominated higher courts will eventually let the ERA stay on the November ballot.

ALBANY, New York — A measure that would codify abortion rights in the New York constitution, as well as other equal rights, was tossed off the ballot Tuesday, a blow to Democrats’ efforts to get the question to voters in November.
A conservative judge in upstate Livingston County rejected the measure in a court ruling, questioning the legality of the ballot question. Democrats hope the measure will drive out turnout in a critical election year where New York will have a half dozen battleground House seats that could determine control of the chamber next year.
Democrats plan to appeal with the assumption that Democratic-dominated higher courts will eventually let the ERA stay on the November ballot — one of a number of states with abortion rights measure on the ballot. They have been preparing to use the ERA and its enshrinement of abortion rights into the state constitution as the core of a $20 million effort to drive out voters.
“This is a disappointing court decision, but we will appeal because New Yorkers deserve to be protected by their Constitution, especially as our basic freedoms and rights are under attack,” Attorney General Tish James said in a statement.

But for now, the decision in the lawsuit brought by Assembly Republican Marjorie Byrnes handed Republicans some momentum on the issue.
“Once again the legislature and Governor Hochul are found to have violated the state constitution,” state GOP Chair Ed Cox said in a statement. “In their rush to pass this amendment, the Legislature never held a single hearing on the proposal, never consulted with outside constitutional experts, and falsely asserted this amendment was necessary to protect abortion rights in the state.”
Byrnes had argued that Democrats failed to follow the proper steps before sending the amendment to voters. The state constitution says that before legislators vote on amendment, the attorney general shall be given 20 days to render an opinion on whether it conflicts with other parts of the constitution.
The amendment was introduced and passed on July 1, 2022, before an opinion had been offered.
“In order to amend the constitution, the majority violated the constitution,” Byrnes said in an interview earlier this year.
Supreme Court Judge Daniel Doyle agreed and dismissed Democratic arguments that they had substantially complied with the constitutional requirements.
“’Substantial’ compliance is not compliance, and this Court cannot condone actions taken by the Legislature in derogation of the expressed will of the People,” he wrote.
In the weeks the case was argued, Democrats accused the GOP of forum shopping and warned that they might be dealt a temporary setback in Livingston County.
But they were confident that they would eventually win once the case reached the Court of Appeals — which has recently handed Democrats victories on issues such as redistricting — and the issue would remain on the ballot.
“This ruling is nothing but a baseless attack by the anti-abortion minority, and we are confident it will be overturned on appeal,” Andrew Taverrite, spokesperson for the pro-ERA New Yorkers for Equal Rights, said in a statement. “Our focus will remain on educating and empowering voters so that they can vote to protect their fundamental rights and reproductive freedoms in November.”
Democrats have tried to focus the debate over the ERA on its pro-abortion language as they attempt to energize their base in a state critical swing races in the New York City suburbs and in upstate.
Republicans, meanwhile, have focused on everything else that the amendment does. That includes its protections of transgender rights, an issue highlighted by former Rep. Lee Zeldin at a Monday appearance in the Capitol.

Two years ago CNN released a photo taken by the photographer Anil Prabhakar in the forest in Indonesia. The image shows an orangutan, currently under threat of extinction, while stretching out his hand to help a geologist who fell into a mud pool during his search. When the photographer uploaded the photo, he wrote this as a caption: “In a time when the concept of humanity dies, animals lead us to the principles of humanity.”
He didn't go to his kids other graduations.
I think he did go to their college graduations. He was, at least, at Tiffany's a few years ago.
And Johnson is FOS.
Now that's funny. I'm sure he previously intended to attend the dinner, not the graduation (which apparently is at 7 p.m.). But now that he's made a huge thing of it in court, it'll look bad if he doesn't turn up for Barron.
It really is a thing. lol

That works too, but some enterprising developer could surely develop a "sarcasm" font.
At least put a "not" or something on the end of it when it's not as clear.
.
I think the 'surprising turn of events" comment was total sarcasm. Someone NEEDS to develop an identifiable "sarcasm font"
Surprising turn of events? Pretty much expected to most not in a cult. He didn't go to his kids other graduations.
I think the DOJ should charge some republicans with accessory and interfering with the law and justice. Just a bunch of dangerous liars and partners in crime.
THIS is why every single vote matters.

Trump Skips Barron's Graduation for MN Event
In a surprising turn of events, Trump has decided to skip his son Barron's high school graduation on May 17th to attend a political event in Minnesota. This decision has sparked controversy and disappointment among his supporters, especially after Trump had previously expressed his disappointment over potentially missing the graduation due to a court appearance. The Minnesota GOP announced that Trump will be the keynote speaker at their Lincoln Day dinner on the same night as Barron's graduation, leading to speculation about Trump's priorities and the sincerity of his earlier complaints. The incident has left many questioning Trump's commitment to his family and his political ambitions, with some social media users expressing their disappointment and others finding humor in the situation.

The dog (puppy) was only 14 months old. Only shows stupidity and lack of any qualifications, emotionally or mentally to be a good pet owner, let alone be training one. If someone had the puppy before and was having trouble with it, the trouble was with those people and not anything to do with the puppy. If the character and intelligence of a person can't even be in charge of one of the most, maybe the most faithful and loyal of animals, says a lot to their abilities to be in charge of policy and governing of people. The mental act of being able to tie up a perfectly healthy dog, a friend and companion to her young children which she lies about being the opposite, and shooting it out of her own frustrations and bragging about it because she thinks it's a nice story for the cult says it all.
Noem shoots a puppy for being a puppy and then shoots the goat for being a goat. She had/has the money and available options to let professional dog trainers train any dog for hunting or for just a behaved pet and advise her in proper dog training techniques if that's what she was after. Her actions indicated different personal issues.
She probably still likes to tear wings off of flies just to see it suffer with a mentality level that can't even do that right.
At that dog age, even with the worse treatment or no training at all, could have been brought around to growing into a good dog, even a good hunter under a decent owner. That's just the way dogs are. Can't say the same about people like her, she's a lost cause.
.
Sorry, but she just isn't gong high enough.
She gets a 7.
Ha! Kidding
Good lord!!

Noem, 52, stressed that Commander, who was removed from the White House last fall following dozens of reports that he bit people, had presented safety issues to staffers and Secret Service agents.
fwiw, what I've read suggests that Commander was perfectly nice to staffers. He just didn't like Secret Service.
Does anyone know how old Cricket was when the Noem family adopted her? Kristi makes it sound like they had Cricket practically forever but then she also says another family had trouble with her before she was adopted? The whole story makes no sense and now she thinks Biden should have had Commander killed.
Kristi sounds the the perfect VP for Trump but even her lust for blood might be a little too far him.
Kristi Noem defends apparent threat to kill Biden’s dog Commander: ‘Say hello to Cricket’
South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem stood by a passage in her upcoming book in which she appeared to say she would also kill President Biden’s troubled dog Commander and quipped that the president pup would “say hello to” Cricket, pup she famously boasted about shooting.
Noem, 52, stressed that Commander, who was removed from the White House last fall following dozens of reports that he bit people, had presented safety issues to staffers and Secret Service agents.
“Joe Biden’s dog has attacked 24 Secret Service people. So how many people is enough people to be attacked and dangerously hurt before you make a decision on a dog?” Noem pondered on told CBS’ “Face the Nation” on Sunday.
The Biden White House announced that Commander was given away to relatives in February.
