The problem isn't my math, it's that there are people in Bay Minette who are neither Black nor white. Their demographics were not mentioned in the article.

61 years ago today, the Food Stamp Act was signed with the hope that no American would go hungry. Now, we’re still pushing to make that vision a reality. As Trump guts SNAP, we’re fighting back because no one in our country should struggle to put food on the table.
Note the purposes of the act, and that the program was assigned to the Department of Agriculture. The program benefited farmers too. uscode.house.gov/statutes/pl/...
Now that we can Google our names and find out that our names are not unique, we can appreciate having a weird middle name.
NEW: DOJ says the Guatemalan children should be back in the custody of the Office of Refugee Resettlement by 10:30 p.m. ET. It counts 76 children who had been boarded onto planes at the time the court blocked their removal. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
This is what happens when you obliterate the presumption of regularity. Endless homework assignments because the court can't trust the government to follow orders in good faith.
#Florida man who stockpiled weapons & maintained a “hit list” against Jewish and Black Americans including U.S. Rep. Jared Moskowitz, has been sentenced to 25 years in federal prison. www.sun-sentinel.com/2025/08/31/m... via @sun-sentinel.com
I think it previously belonged to Lauren Bacall and Rudy got to keep it.
Thanks, good to know I am not alone.
New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!
Is he POTUS now?
Ya don't have to be a tax attorney to figure that out.
An old lady in Alabama appreciates your timely and accurate reporting, Kyle.
UPDATE: A federal judge has barred the Trump administration from deporting 600 unaccompanied Guatemalan children overnight, halting the effort while many of them sat on the tarmac in El Paso — and maybe have, in one case, been in the air. t.co/4QRs4oLf0G
The President of Portugal Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa called the orange felon a Russian asset in a live televised speech. Well done, this is how you do it. 👏
Our Republican leaders are like the Russian communist boogeymen I was warned about in the 1960s. - People were expected to rat out their relatives. - People could be imprisoned w/o a trial. - People would disappear. - Consumer goods unavailable. -Rulers are affluent; others are merely surviving.
Chills.
Ditto slavery. We can never made the descendants whole. It can never be as it would be had no Europeans arrived. I favor cash and land. Not the crappy land that is toxic from pollution, either.
That is interesting. If everyone at all levels is a thief, why should I follow an illusory social contract which forbids thievery?
See Les Misérables! Or read the book! Or the Classics illustrated comic book!
Don't we know it! SCOTUS has been the primary issue for me since law school. All other issues seem to eventually find their way there.
I live on land that was previously inhabited by Muscogee Creek Native Americans (Jefferson County, Alabama). They were forcibly relocated to Oklahoma.* I hope my title insurance covers this. * I think about ways to purge this nation's collective guilt. I don't think it will happen in my lifetime.☹️
Thanks, I was thinking of the female judge appointed by President Biden, who will go to heaven if it exists.
Has anyone ever told you that you have issues with women?
Him?
Here comes the judge: Born in Trinidad & Tobago, educated at St. Francis College in NYC (BS), Hofstra Univ. (MBA), and Brooklin Law School (2010). Clerked for Sotomayor, appointed by Biden. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sparkle...

Ha! I wonder if Sacha Baron-Cohen is available.
BREAKING: A federal judge has *blocked* the Trump administration from abruptly deporting 600 unaccompanied Guatemalan children — perhaps within a matter of hours — granting an emergency restraining order after advocates called the plan illegal + dangerous. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
True. Vladimir Putin's experts have diagnosed from afar. We have the Goldwater Rule promulgated by the American Psychiatric Association. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goldwat...
The business model for journalists fell apart due to the internet. Editors have been eliminated. The first to publish gets the most hits. Many self-described journalists never went to J school. We readers have to work a lot harder to get the facts.
That arbitration clause could be between the two corporations owned by the same people. Weird about your professors, and that this was known to students.
This lawsuit sounds like a law school exam covering civil procedure, real property and environmental torts. The quarry is in Alabama. The defendants (two churches, a pastor, a corp.) are in Alabama. The state court is in Indiana where the plaintiffs are incorporated. www.al.com/news/huntsvi...
Clean energy isn’t “woke.” It’s an essential part of our energy future and saves us all on power bills. This administration’s war on offshore wind and solar is just going to raise Americans’ utilities.
That is one dangerous family.
Is that the bald head of Stephen Miller?
You're welcome!
Republican individuals & groups. Your work helps get Republicans elected. If a Republican is not sufficiently compliant, firearms advocates support their primary opponents. That's how we got so many GOP idiots in Congress. That's why the constitution is being ignored by Republicans in Congress.
Others do fund you.
No paywall here: apnews.com/article/immi...
RNC = Republican National Committee. It's a specific organization. Political actors and corporations can donate money through PACs.
Hello @snopes.com . Has any woman come forward and accused Trump of sexually abusing her when she was a "little girl?" Or when she was under the age of majority?
I agree with one thing Mr. Emanuel said: "I don't think the public should be in that space." I probably wouldn't use the phrase "in that space" because it sounds ridiculous to me. I'd say the public should not make these decisions. The public lacks expertise.
Congratulations, this photo is authentic! I appreciate it. newrepublic.com/post/198416/...

A lot of the South and Central Americans who are being arrested by ICE are asylum applicants. They were allowed to live freely pending a hearing on their applications. The lack of judges slowed the process. The majority of these applications will be denied. www.uscis.gov/humanitarian...

Okay, my 101-year-old grandfather is really enjoying the responses he’s gotten here, so I’ve finally convinced him to let me share something he’s been working on for years; a series of sculptures he calls “Trumpinnochios.” Here’s one of his best. I’ll share a few more in this thread.
perma.cc/P8FE-QNPU Johnson had a team of supporters behind her—anti-abortion conservative donor Steve Baer and a man who calls himself “Al Taylor,” a mysterious foul-mouthed ex-producer of The Jerry Springer Show, the two unified by one common passion: a blinding hatred for Donald Trump.

Snopes and professional journalists have tried to authenticate the claims found on the internet regarding Trump and juveniles. None were unsuccessful. It's funny that the "people are saying [insert lies]" guy may be brought down because of false allegations made by his enemies.
Thank you. This paragraph states that Bush REFUSED TO DECLASSIFY those pages, which is not the same thing as deleting those pages.
If that is true, then you can post several links to prove it, as you were asked to do earlier.
While Mr. Carey set fire to his own flag, he was very careful not to endanger anyone or anything. That's the actus reus. It was not Mr. Carey's intent to harm anyone or anything. It was his intent to protest an unconstitutional executive order, as was his 1st Amendment right. No mens rea.
This comment is in reference to "Bush the senior was sitting in meeting in DC with Bin Ladens when planes hit." Snopes confirmed that the photo was altered to put bin Laden's and Bush's faces on other people.
I think that the companies that don't pay a tariff are the companies which don't receive any goods from overseas. No payment, no delivery.
I quit watching CNN when I saw Rick Santorum every time I tuned in. Santorum was no longer in the Senate, thank God.
Sorry, Eric, you will lose your lawsuits. legalclarity.org/can-you-sue-...
RFK Jr. taps his top deputy, Jim O’Neill, to be the new CDC director. Both men appear to wear skinny ties from Otaa. Otaa's ties are made in China from microfiber, a kind of plastic that, under the right conditions, can migrate to your balls.
I suspect that the victim was a cousin or niece. Had the article given much more information about her relationship to the perpetrator, her identity could be figured out by those who knew them.

You got caught. Admit your error like an adult, if you can.
I have no idea what you are talking about. Misplaced post, perhaps?
Idaho. Mormon. Athlete. Not going to be registered as a sex offender. Prosecutor reduced charges in plea deal and asked for ten years of probation. Dahle was a minor when he committed offenses. Pleaded guilty to "lewdness involving a child." www.eastidahonews.com/2025/08/form...
I hope I never get on your bad side because that is an excellent insult!
My fees were low enough that low-income single mothers could afford me for their paternity & child support cases. In any event, Lisa Cook doesn't need a pro bono lawyer. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisa_Cook Hopefully, the court will order the defendant to pay her legal fees and expenses.

You will see a woman name me and call me out for wanting lawyers to be paid for their work. She quote-skeeted me for the purpose of insulting me. She turned off replies. I am a retired Legal Aid attorney and solo practitioner. Her criticism was not well received. Everyone deserves fair pay.
Good morning, Ratched! People do love to complain that the Democratic Party doesn't do anything. Other people complain because Democrats accept donations from wealthy people, corporations and PACs.
Lawyers have expenses: student loans, housing, food, transportation, clothing, health insurance, office space, clerical staff, paralegals, malpractice insurance, electronic legal research etc. They are precluded from taking cases which conflict with this client's interests. Lawyers should be paid.
I found nothing online about O'Neill's personal life. I noted that he worked in the Bush White House and Health & Human Services before, but not as a scientist. He wrote speeches. O'Neill's name is so common it's hard to find out anything about him. Does that make sense?
Wasn't Marco kidnapped? #GH I remember Jason showing up outside the room where Marco was held. I don't remember Marco seeing any familiar faces. In any event, Marco thought Sonny arranged the kidnapping.
Don't trust your memory. Fact check!

I recommend RAISE followed by TOUCH. That gets all the vowels except Y, and many frequently used consonants. Wordle has already used these words.
I have no issue with AG Bondi's attorneys being overworked.
Why pro bono?
What facts did you consider before reaching this conclusion?
What do you call a fighter with no weapons?
Except that is easily disproved. Bondi wasn't AG when that deal was made, and she wasn't in that county either.
Karen Bass is the mayor. Whether anyone can control the LAPD is another matter.
How did you determine that? It's more likely that you are unaware of what Democrats are doing and saying.
The new ICE song by Jesse Welles nails it. ICE isn’t recruiting heroes, it’s recruiting the bitter, the rejected, the ones desperate for a badge to cover their failures. Losers with power become the most dangerous kind. (c/o Caroline Codsi)

I'm looking at the State Department's website. The 1st step is: A related citizen or lawful permanent resident (green card holder) must file Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative. OR a US employer may file Form I-140. If someone doesn't qualify for either one, they cannot legally immigrate here.
"...all they're doing is posting on social media." How did you determine this?
Trump knows that Chicago is a chaotic crime scene because he watched the Blues Brothers.
I believe you, so I guess I'm not mentally ill. I am a bit of a grammar pedant though.
I often talk about the fact that MAGA does not access the same news as the left wing. I present to you Exhibit A. Dr. Daskalakis’ resignation letter excoriated RFK Jr. and shared that RFK Jr. was lying to the public, manipulating data, and ordering unethical actions. This what Fox News served.
Oh, hell no!
Yes.
