Biden's approval rating has been low and I don't understand why. Like objectively, why are his ratings like 8 to 10% lower than Obama's or Shitler's at this point in his presidency. Why is that? I mean, objectively, his presidency has not been a disaster. I am looking for answers that would mean exceptional problems, because his approval rating seems exceptionally low. We aren't in a war, the economy is booming (much better than the rest of the western world), unemployment is low, his office acts with dignity. I am not looking for partisan asshats to speak nonsense, like the nation is descending into chaos because of immigrants or such nonsense. I am looking for tangible reality-based reasons for this historically bad approval rating. The way I see it are the following: 1. hyperpartisanship getting worse 2. his age 3. Gaza war The biggest negatives over the past couple of years-his failure with the student loan forgiveness and abortion rights I blame on Republicans. read more

Smith's daughter testified that she'd previously had two consensual sexual encounters with her attacker in the school bathroom. On the day of her assault, they'd agreed to meet up again. "The evidence was that the girl chose that bathroom, but her intent was to talk to him, not to engage in sexual relations," Biberaj, whose office prosecuted the case, told me. The boy, however, expected sex and refused to accept the girl's refusal. As the The Washington Post reported, she testified, "He flipped me over. I was on the ground and couldn't move and he sexually assaulted me."

The boy was indeed wearing a skirt, but that skirt didn't authorize him to use the girls' bathroom. As Amanda Terkel reported in HuffPost, the school district's trans-inclusive bathroom policies were approved only in August, more than two months after the assault. This was not, said Biberaj, someone "identifying as transgender and going into the girls' bathroom under the guise of that."

So, to classify this as a trans crime is just gross, ignorant bigotry.

AND BTW

since jeff is so concerned about the rights of the accused in school sexual assault cases, the school district had no option but to return him to the district (even at a different school).
