Dafuq is his major malfunction? He's a dick just to be a dick. And fucking up people's lives.

More illogic from that fuckwit. Lots of prisons actively train the inmates to get their barber or cosmetology license while incarcerated. Studies show it actually reduces recidivism by about 40% They also train plumbers and electricians and welders. Will they be banned for 5 years too?

https://www.orlandosentinel.com/2024/07 ... oridas-ok/Textbook authors told climate change references must be cut to get Florida’s OK
The directive appears similar to requirements the state imposed on math and social studies textbooks said to include “critical race theory” and “social justice” material
Textbook authors were told last month that some references to “climate change” must be removed from science books before they could be accepted for use in Florida’s public schools, according to two of those authors.
A high school biology book also had to add citations to back up statements that “human activity” caused climate change and cut a “political statement” urging governments to take action to stop climate change, said Ken Miller, the co-author of that textbook and a professor emeritus of biology at Brown University.
Both Miller and a second author who asked not to be identified told the Orlando Sentinel they learned of the state-directed changes from their publishers, who received phone calls in June from state officials.
Miller, also president of the board of the National Center for Science Education, said the phrase “climate change” was not removed from his high school biology text, which he assumed happened because climate change is mentioned in Florida’s academic standards for biology courses.
But according to his publisher, a 90-page section on climate change was removed from its high school chemistry textbook and the phrase was removed from middle school science books, he said.
The other author said he was told Florida wanted publishers to remove “extraneous information” not listed in state standards. “They asked to take out phrases such as climate change,” he added.

Those kids are going to be shocked when they grow up and get out into the Real World. Or, you know, look it up online.

Total side note: If Trump's physical and mental health had been covered the way Biden's is now, DeSantis would likely have been the nominee.

I can't for the life of me understand why the media wants to make Trump president. Sure, he's good for clicks, but once he gets back in and all of his handpicked minions are in place, how long before they'll be able to post anything not Trump approved propaganda?
