Angry, Deranged Oligarch Is How The Press Saw Him

Granite Grok - Fri, 2025-01-10 01:00 +0000

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-01-09 21:00 +0000
It took me a few years to get my school district (SAU73) to figure out that Agents of Government (elected and bureaucratic officials) cannot abrogate a person’s First Amendment Free Speech rights.

Please humor me for a moment, close your eyes, and picture the Mr Bean meme.  It’s a quartet of him standing with his hands on his hips, looking at his watch, sitting Indian style, and lying down.  The caption says, “Me waiting for (insert long-awaited item here).”  I’m starting with that exercise because, just like ...
