Missouri to strip public libraries of all state funding in retaliation for censorship lawsuit.

Missouri to strip public libraries of all state funding in retaliation for censorship lawsuit.

Would it still be public libraries without public funding?
Or are they also funded by local towns and cities?

I believe municipal funds are also a thing, yes.

I believe municipal funds are also a thing, yes.

I figured for larger cities like St. Louis or Kansas City, but I wonder if smaller towns can afford it still with a lack of state funds.

North Dakota lawmakers ban approval voting system used in Fargo

Well that's disappointing. Another win for the Uniparty I suppose...

Sure they can. They'll just have to jack up property taxes to Illinois levels.

Not when the Republicans keep doing stupid things like this.

I stand by what I said. Biden is the face of the Democratic Party and he believes it is strange when black people are clean and articulate and thinks all 7 Eleven employees speak with an Indian accent. That is, when he is able to think at all. Most of the time, he doesn't know where he is. States violated the Constitution in stealing the election by bypassing the state legislature in allowing mail in ballots. Now we have the real President indicted on nonsensical charges. Bill Clinton wasn't arrested when he committed perjury. America is a banana republic and it is time for states to leave the union.

This is very basic Putin propaganda. It's pure projection of how Trump actually behaves.

Lake County collects the highest property tax in Illinois, levying an average of $6,285.00 (2.19% of median home value) yearly in property taxes,

I don’t know about them. Here; the libraries get funding from multiple sources.

Why do red states treat it like a competition to be the dumbest state? Is it just about attempting to consolidate power among the leadership, or are the leaders equally dumb? I'm conflicted.

When you base your party platform on ignorance and paranoia, education is your enemy.

Anger and anxiety - inside pro-Trump online networks

None of the reactions are all that surprising, but are interesting to note, nonetheless.

[Vassenor]

So it turns out that arming teachers actually did nothing to stop the Nashville shooting.

[American Legionaries]

This shithole country isn't even worth living in anymore.

Never has been.

[Fan-T Pashtunistan]

In the American Spectrum, authoritarians, totalitarians and collectivists are on the left.

in case anybody thought this nonsense had some merit
The first people the Nazis collaborated with were conservatives. The people neonazis collaborate with right now are all conservatives and liberals.

Indeed Donald Trump himself went from neoliberalism to happily drawing support from people bearing swastika flags.

If people changing their ideologies automatically had those ideologies all along, Hitler was friends with the founder of the Nazi Party who was, until Hitler, a socialist (the PRE-HITLER Nazis were socialists, hence the name).
In any case, you would be considered conservative on racial issues.

a poor, bedumbed, traumatized society cannot by definition exercise the basic expectations of democratic governance

and for that, you have to start early -- kids either going hungry or yearning for the mines -- and thorough -- by destroying any expectation that government can actually work for them, by minimizing positive public outreach to the absolute minimum AND maximizing public cruelty to the absolute maximum

I think they should both be/have been (I don't know the statute of limitations) arrested and given a long prison term.
America was already a banana republic (NOTHING against the American people, just how their systems have gone downhill) under Trump, if anything they were one under Ronald Reagan and possibly before.

You should stand by less stupid things.

And yeah, I'm calling bullshit that you actually care about politicians acting offensively.

States violated the Constitution in stealing the election by bypassing the state legislature in allowing mail in ballots. Now we have the real President indicted on nonsensical charges. Bill Clinton wasn't arrested when he committed perjury. America is a banana republic and it is time for states to leave the union.

Oh god, another election denier...

Has anyone got that list of big name GOP peeps who routinely vote by mail?

You should take a gander at this article:

The renaming of the German Worker's Party (DAP) to the National Socialist German Workers' Party (NSDAP) was partially driven by a desire to draw upon both left-wing and right-wing ideals, with "Socialist" and "Workers'" appealing to the left, and "National" and "German" appealing to the right.
