Trump Claims Biden Wants to "Eliminate America's borders"

FACT CHECKS This series will focus upon fact checks done by recognized and reputable sources AP Fact Check: Trump says Biden wants to “eliminate America’s borders.” THE WALL TRUMP, claiming Biden wants to “eliminate America’s borders”: “He wants to tear down the wall — he actually suggested tearing down the wall that we fought so hard to get built.” — North Carolina tele-rally on Friday. THE FACTS: That’s false. Biden’s immigration plan does not include money for new border fencing, and he and his campaign task force on immigration aren’t calling for any new walls. But neither has proposed taking down existing barriers. Asked specifically by NPR last month if he would tear down the wall, Biden said: “No. There will not be another foot of wall constructed on my administration, No. 1.” “No. 2 … I’m going to make sure that we have border protection, but it’s going to be based on making sure that we use high-tech capacity to deal with it and at the ports of entry. That’s where all bad stuff is happening.” https://apnews.com/37d23266a1c10496574b6be3d54eb4ca?utm_source=piano&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=morningwire&pnespid=luZrsfoIXB6NwyP5Xe59fzdpxfgi7.bfv1sfmUjO

Federal Appeals court: Detroit students have a right to literacy

Constitutional Rights #1 Literacy Federal Appeals court: Detroit students have a right to literacy By Corey Williams | AP April 23, 2020 at 5:32 p.m. PDT https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/appeals-court-detroit-students-have-a-right-to-literacy/2020/04/23/0b35425c-85c3-11ea-81a3-9690c9881111_story.html WEST BLOOMFIELD, Mich. — Students at underperforming Detroit public schools have a constitutional right to literacy, a federal appeals court said Thursday in reviving a lawsuit against the state of Michigan. The court sent the case back to a federal judge in Detroit who had dismissed a lawsuit against state officials. The 2016 lawsuit alleged that the city’s public schools were in “slum-like conditions” and “functionally incapable of delivering access to literacy.” A basic minimum education should be recognized as a fundamental right, said judges Eric Clay and Jane Stranch in a 2-1 decision from the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. The ruling came on the same day that gro...

Upholding the Constitution and Laws of the State of WA

On Behalf of WEA’s More Conservative Members #4 Why I’ve Decided to Support Kim Wyman, Despite WEA’s Failure to Endorse Her for a Third Time. 4.13.20 “The Secretary of State takes an oath of office to uphold the (US) Constitution and the Constitution and Laws of the State of Washington to the best of her ability. It is imperative that the Secretary follow those laws without regard to personal preference or party affiliation, as adherence to the law is not optional.” Kim Wyman Kim Wyman has 26 years of experience as an election administrator and has overseen well over 100 elections. During those years, her administration has been known for its nonpartisanship in running elections and managing the offices. She does not take a stand on public issues, such as choice, gun control, same-sex marriage, taxation, minimum wage, or charter schools, that may or will come up for a vote. For that reason, voters see her and the office as being impartial. When Pres. Trump’s Elections Fraud Co...

The “Other Washington” Republicans

On Behalf of WEA’s More Conservative Members #29 The “Other Washington” Republicans Since I am an educator, the principle about education is closest to my heart. This principle was revised before Washington State passed its Charter Schools Initiative or resolved the McCleary case. “We value public education - Public-funded public education is a fundamental obligation of our society; it provides the civilizing glue that bonds together the large, diverse segments of our society and the skills necessary to realize its opportunities.” I find the statement about bonding “together the large, diverse segments of our society” particularly important, as it recognizes the existence of that great diversity. For me, however, the most important words are the first two: “Public-funded”. Actually, the motion that was made used the words “Publicly-funded”, which seems more grammatically correct. Since charter schools were not yet underway, the focus was public schools v. private schools. Wit...
