There won't be dancing when that s*** hits federal court. Appeal it to the federal courts. Because that goes against that state's Constitution and the federal courts can and will decide that.
Oh Jess, I am so pissed about this... a Bill needs to be written that: the will of the people should not be challenged by-any government body once it has been proven to be the voice of majority. Not Congress, not the Judicial. They are REPRESENTATIVES, not KINGS!
Yep it starts with this then every election 🤬, but everyone keeps saying wait until 2026🙄, we can’t even keep them from overturning the will of the people now
The WH is shutting down Job Corps effective NEXT WEEK. 60,000+ students across the country are being sent home by next Friday essentially putting many kids on the street
This makes me both sad and mad as hell. Job Corps is vitally important to schools and children. I personally know of several kids who were on bad paths that went on to lead productive and successful lives because of JC. This will mostly (but not surprisingly) impact POC and low income households.
I do realize that the program has some issues. But why not try to fix it, rather than just throw in the towel?
They make it more obvious by the minute that cruelty was always the point.
And of course the fed used enrollment/ graduarion rates, etc statistics from the covid lock down as justification for poor performance to shut it down.
POC, Trans, at risk; you name it, they are getting kneecapped.
There are kids currently 2 FRIGGIN WEEKS away from getting thier high school diploma and certification for thier trade. They will walk away with NOTHING!
I hate being from this state. What are we known for? Bigotry, hatred, lack of education, lying about caring for families, banning books, sticking our heads in the sand...ugh.
I definitely see all that, but the land is so beautiful and so are the seasons and the caves are cool and the rivers and its home to almost every single person I love. Lots of racists but lots of good people too!
Yeah, my grandparents were from northern AR. That clay is deep red. I always notice it, too. Where we are in MO we have the red clay, just not as deeply colored.
I’m in Clay County and it’s kinda gray clay, we border KC to the northeast. The first time I tried to dig through clay I thought what the fuck, did I hit stone? Trying to bury numerous pets over the year has sucked. 8 inches deep ya hit clay.
Damn I was really hoping that in the video a giant hand was going to come I and either grab the dancing idiots and squash them or a fist was going to pound them into the ground…maybe after we figure out how to fix this?
They don’t know the history of public services, most of which stepped in and we’re formed when private ventures failed. Bus service? Water service? Fire service? All eventually failed as private enterprises.
Missouri Republicans do this, and Republicans in general ignore the will of the voters on issues, because they know that voters will continue to vote for Republicans even when their elected officials defy them. It’s like fans of an awful sports team that keep going to the games no matter what.
1/2 @piperformissouri.bsky.social Jess, you know state laws and procedures. This is a temporary injunction. Planned Parenthood sued the state to halt the ban and allow amendment 3 measures to take effect. Zhang ruled the ban violated the amended MO constitution and license reqs were discriminatory.
2/2. The Bailey argument is about licensure and regulation. (But that argument is a total sham) The circuit court ruled that Zhang didn’t follow proper procedure before her ruling in December. This created the temp injunction. What actually happens next?
