Who is profiting from this announcement? That might explain why it's being done. Even if the argument is improved efficiency or whatever catch phrase, the top reason will be to allow someone to cash in on our tax investments.

What is he saying? That because some women are gay there aren't enough women for (nevermind people aren't owed another person) heterosexual men? But by that logic, because some men are gay, that should even out the opportunity matches for heterosexuals, no?

As a resident of a MD county that went for Trump +30 and not too far from Baltimore, these Red State/Blue State references miss the mark somewhat because, in MD, aside from the greater Baltimore/D.C. it's all R and with large maga factions. Interestingly our school board is not maga.

I live in a Trump +30 county. I think there are enough nearby people willing to take such risks to make it feasible from a personnel perspective. The challenge would be the coordination, logistical support, and secrecy necessary for success.

Assuming future free and fair elections, Moore likely has a tough re-election in MD in '26. If he wins, a presidential bid may be in his future. I'm in a more rural part of MD, so most of my neighbors never liked Moore but he is facing head winds with our budget - a lot of which is due to Hogan.

Hi MI Mom - maybe not for your sons yet (it sounds like they are younger) but you and your daughter might enjoy (if you haven't already) "Firekeeper's Daughter" by Angeline Boulley. Strong female characters, takes place in MI, and lots of themes. One of my favorites in recent years.
