If a family's total income is less than the family's threshold, then that family and every individual in it is considered in poverty...

A small Christian college in America’s heartland is fighting a legal battle with far-reaching implications.
At stake is the school’s ability — any school’s ability — to restrict spaces such as dormitories and showers to only women.
What was once unthinkable for a Christian college became an all-too-real problem the day Joe Biden was sworn in as president.

GOPers unhappy with GOP "leaders"-----She needs to go.
She needs to go. Dave "Real America’s Voice news reports that Ronna Romney’s leadership as the RNC Chair is a joke.
She’s way behind the democrats in harvesting ballots.
- She has raised her pay to $437,000 a year, lives in luxury with an apartment with a bowling alley, swimming pool and gym, spent thousands on makeup and hair and has spent millions on private airplanes and limousines.
...She needs to go.
She was catapulted into this job with uncle Romney’s money...
Ronna is part of the establishment and never should have been re-elected to live in luxury while doing poorly in her job.
Heh!-----Conservatives in a ‘conservative McDonald’s’ overheard praising Biden and Harris
"This tweet reminds us of all the tweets from Jacob Wohl based on something he overheard in a “hipster coffee shop” … where left-wing women propositioned him rather aggressively. Now there are liberal and conservative McDonald’s, and we’re afraid we’ve been eating at the wrong one.
Anyway, the story goes that this guy was in a conservative McDonald’s and overheard the conservatives there saying that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris were actually doing a pretty good job.
The story sounded fake enough without putting Kamala in there — no one thinks she’s doing a good job.

Lamonte Mims and Fantasy Decuir shot 71-year-old Edward French to death while robbing him of his camera and wallet in the early morning hours of July 16, 2017.
Decuir is seen shooting French even though Mims, who is holding French, had already stolen the camera.
...On Monday, the jury found Mims guilty on three charges of second-degree robbery, possession of a firearm by a felon, contempt of court and two other theft charges. Jurors found Decuir guilty of two second-degree robbery charges and two other theft charges. “The pair were acquitted on a charge of inflicting injury on an elder likely to cause great bodily injury, and the jury deadlocked on the charge of murder 10-2 in favor of guilty for both defendants...They are black.
