As I’ve said many times: if you want to hire STEM graduates to teach in high school, pay them better. An annual bonus.  Non-STEM teachers are a dime a dozen.  But because of the liberal notion that teachers should paid based on degrees and years teaching instead of merit, this problem will continue to compound

The high schoolers skipped school, marched, and protested for what didn’t happen at school.  Typical highschoolers, reacting to a partial story/truth.  The Pullman Police Department has completed its investigation into an alleged sexual assault that was reported by Pullman High School staff. The initial report was that the alleged assault occurred at the high school.

Are the other 10% asleep?  Not the we need polls to tell us the obvious, but the vast majority of Americans (over 90%) now rate inflation and the economic decline as their top worry going into the November mid-term elections. This comes from the latest the latest POLITICO/Morning Consult poll , which traditionally tends to

Gotta love Dan Foreman. From the Moscow-Pullman Daily News:  The only candidate who strongly disagreed with the state’s [covid] response was former Sen. Dan Foreman, R-Viola, who is running against Nelson. He called for an investigation, both into the state’s actions and into the medical community, for the decisions they made. “Your constitutional rights were

Yes. Really.   Using shipping containers to plug gaps in the U.S.–Mexico border wall violates federal law , a Biden administration official told top Arizona officials in a recent letter.   “The unauthorized placement of those containers constitutes a violation of federal law and is a trespass against the United States,” Jacklynn Gould, a regional director

The Supreme Court on Wednesday was asked by a Wisconsin tax advocacy group to block the Biden administration’s student loan debt relief scheme, which is set to take effect this weekend. The emergency filing from the Brown County Taxpayers Association asked Justice Amy Coney Barrett, who is responsible for handling such requests from the 7th

Gain of function is another name for biological weaponization.  Watch the deflection of Fauci away from the weaponization of bat coronavirus in Wuhan.  A National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases official said the agency will further evaluate a controversial Boston University-commissioned preprint study that developed a COVID-19 hybrid that killed “80 percent” of lab

Welcome to 1984.  Oil markets are drifting sideways this morning after the Biden administration plans to release 10-15 million barrels of crude from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve in a bid to suppress gasoline and diesel prices at the pump ahead of the next month’s congressional elections, Bloomberg said citing people familiar with the matter. President

Well, Dems are going to try and fix that. They are mandating that all school children are vaxxed and boosted for Covid.  Yet another reason to bail on the gov’t schools.  Few people have received updated COVID-19 vaccine boosters since it was first made available in August, according to recent data published by the federal

Remember the Democrats’ mantra: our election software is perfectly safe. See, Biden was elected, not Trump! Los Angeles prosecutors on Oct. 14 accused the CEO of a Michigan-based election software company of being involved in a “massive” data breach affecting at least thousands of victims, including minors. Eugune Yu, 64, who heads Konnech, a company

Another fascinating data point.  As U.S. inflation remains at multi-decade highs, the Federal Reserve has been aggressive with its interest rate hikes. In fact, rates have risen more than two percentage points in just six months. In this graphic – which was inspired by a chart from Chartr – Visual Capitalist’s Janna Ross and Sabrina

Not Northern Idaho. Fairchild AFB in Spokane is a ground zero location.  After President Biden’s nuclear “Armageddon” statements and reports, the federal government is purchasing $290 million in anti-radiation drugs for use in “nuclear emergencies,” the first question that comes to mind is where to shelter in the event of nuclear war.  To answer that question, the survivalist website Survivalfreedom.com outlines

Fascinating Since the 1800s, our global population has grown from 984 million people to almost 8 billion – an increase of more than 700%. Which regions around the world have led this growth, and what’s expected for the rest of the century? As Visual Capitalist’s Carmen Ang details below, this animated visualization by James Eagle

Troy school district. Go figure!  Few aspects play a more important role in a child’s development than their educational experience. But among the nearly 50 million American public school students in grades K-12, the quality of that experience varies considerably. Key measures – ranging from annual budgets to graduation rates, and everything in between –

Oof!
