“The people coming on these [H-1B] visas have built this country,” Biden added.
“He said the H-1Bs built this country? So the country didn’t exist before 1998? That is interesting,” responded Rosemary Jenks, policy director at NumbersUSA. If Biden is elected, she said:
Facebook Bans Network With ‘Boogaloo’ Ties - The New York Times
"Facebook said on Tuesday that it took down a network of accounts, groups and pages connected to an antigovernment movement in the United States that encourages violence.
People and groups associated with the decentralized movement, called boogaloo, will be banned from Facebook and Instagram, which Facebook also owns, the company said. Facebook said it had removed 220 Facebook accounts, 95 Instagram accounts, 28 pages and 106 groups as a result of the decision.
It is also designating boogaloo as a dangerous organization on the social network, meaning it shares the same classification as terrorist activity, organized hate and large-scale criminal organizations on Facebook.
As a result, Facebook said it would ban people and organizations linked to boogaloo, and remove content that praises, supports and represents the movement.
...On Monday, Reddit said it was banning roughly 2,000 communities from across the political spectrum that attacked people or regularly engaged in hate speech, including “r/The_Donald,” a community devoted to President Trump... Read all!!!

Michigan superintendents: Skip standardized test this year amid coronavirus | Bridge Magazine
"Michigan students, homebound for months because of the worst pandemic in a century and facing a return to school with social distancing and possibly face masks, shouldn’t have to take standardized tests.
That was the message of State Superintendent Michael Rice, a bipartisan group of legislators and school leaders from across the state Thursday.
If tests are eliminated for the upcoming school year, students would not take the M-STEP, third-graders would not face the possibility of being held back in grade for poor reading scores on the M-STEP, and teachers would not have student test scores used as part of their annual performance reviews...

"Might as well get ready for the annual July 4th fireworks...no, not the ones in the sky, the usual flood of articles about how bad America is and why celebrating our freedom is some "ist" kind of bad.
I noticed some have posted the article how Mount Rushmore is really a celebration of white supremacy but the Salt Lake Tribune got a head start on Sunday with a gem headlined: "Being born someplace isn’t an accomplishment". It featured this wisdom:
"Beyond that, I’m not sure what “proud to be an American” even means. I don’t much care for its undeniable “We’re better than everyone else” ring. Try as I may, I am hard-pressed to see what makes American-ness intrinsically better than, say, Liechtensteiner-ness, Canadian-ness, or Basotho-ness. A human is a human, neither inferior nor superior, point of origin notwithstanding."
Like how one can count on falling leaves in Autumn, one can count on articles like this any time there is an opportunity to celebrate our nation."
Three events last week showed that Democrats do not want a mere transfer of power if they win the November election: they intend to revolutionize our entire system of government.

‘The precinct is on fire’: What happened at Minneapolis’ 3rd Precinct – and what it means | MPR News "...It was 9:53 p.m. when a Minneapolis police officer sent out an urgent call to the other officers who remained in the 3rd Precinct. “We need to move. We need to move,” he shouted over the police radio. Protesters were breaking into the back of the station, and officers were preparing to take an unprecedented step in American policing: to abandon their precinct building. “The front has been breached,” an officer called over the radio just before they fled.
“They’re coming in. They’re coming in the back.”In a dramatic exit, a squad car rammed through a gate near the station in south Minneapolis, leading a motorcade racing from the parking lot.
Patrol officers in riot gear left on foot, hurrying past a jeering crowd hurling rocks and fireworks.

Mob Rule Imperils Western Civilization. It's Time for Courage, Leadership.
"The war on history has spread across our country and has even spilled over to other parts of the Western world. Now, on a daily basis, we see scenes of lawless mobs attacking and tearing down statues, and defacing monuments of every type—often as authorities stand idly by.
But this violence has hardly been reserved just for statues.
