Baltimore teen earned a GPA of 0.13. He only passed 3 classes in 4 yearns of high school but his transcripts show his class rank is 62 out of 120. This means, nearly half his classmates, 58 of them, have a 0.13 grade point average or lower. foxbaltimore.com/news/project-b…
Baltimore mom thought her son would receive his diploma this June. “But after four years of high school, France just learned, her 17-year-old must start over. He’s been moved back to ninth grade.”
Baltimore public school kept moving her son to the next grade for 4 straight years.
What’s interesting about this Baltimore high school is that although only 1% of the students are proficient in Math and Reading, they have a 48% graduation rate.

This public school, which has a 98% minority student body, is graduating kids who they have failed to teach.
Baltimore spends 25.2% above the national average for education. It’s not money that’s the problem. mdpolicy.org/policyblog/det…
Baltimore public school administrators, including the district’s CEO, are handsomely compensated.

CEO Santelises had “cash compensation was more than $126,000 higher than that of the U.S. Secretary of Education, a cabinet-level position.” forbes.com/sites/adamandr…

My most vivid memory from 9/11 was the smell of burnt flesh.

It wasn’t until the next morning that the reality of what happened the day prior truly settled in. I was still in disbelief until I opened my window…

The Smell of September 11 townhall.com/columnists/mar…
I woke up on September 12, 2001, to rays of sunshine beaming on my face. It looked beautiful outside. It was a brand new day, and the terrible dream about the day prior seemed to be over. I walked over to my bedroom window and I opened it.
I inhaled the air, expecting the crisp, fresh smell of a New York September morning, a scent that I loved so much. But my heart quickly sank. I smelled something different. I smelled something that will never leave my memory for as long as I shall live. I smelled burnt flesh.

Biden’s OSHA mandate for employers affects 80 million workers & requires vaccinations or rigid weekly testing. Enforced with $14K per employer violation.

All the while, the vaccine isn't preventing infection, isn't preventing spread, & becomes ineffective after a few months.

Biden will force ALL 2.1 million federal workers to get vaccinated, with NO option for testing because it's the "only way" to get back to normal, he says.

Except the vaccine isn't preventing infection, isn't prevent spread, and becomes ineffective after a few months.

WTF. WTF.

Evil, shameless propagandist.

Biden got 13 American soldier killed.

Biden left behind Americans.

Biden left behind US service dogs.

Biden left behind Afghan women.

But he shows off that he “rescued” 100K able-bodied Afghan men who should have stayed to fight for their land.
No, they weren’t all translators. We didn’t have 100K translators.

We had about 2,500 translators and family members. And they appear to have been brought to the US earlier this summer.

Women left behind to be raped, tortured, enslaved, or worse.
