Updates on the Potential Genocide in Gaza
Israel keeps bombing Gaza, and Congress keeps stumbling around to fire off some more tax dollars toward a nation that’s already committed numerous war crimes and is suspected of engaging in genocide.
Lovely.
Murfreesboro Mayor Shane McFarland Cries on Twitter about More Immigrants Coming to His School District
McFarland bemoaned an increase of immigrant students in the Murfreesboro City School District placing a burden on the taxpayer.
He did this on the same day that the American Civil Liberties Union and other suing parties settled out of court with the City of Murfreesboro over an anti-drag ordinance that McFarland championed.
As part of the settlement, the City of Murfreesboro—its taxpayers—will cough up $500,000 to the ACLU and suing parties. McFarland, for some odd reason, had nothing to say about that burden on the taxpayers.
