Yesterday, we successfully won the inclusion and the establishment of the US Civilian Climate Corps in the Build Back Better Act. This program is set to create over 300,000 public service jobs for people of all ages to help mitigate climate change and environmental injustices.
You support another racially divisive social program?

Closing a jail is good? why?

Wow, a progresssive beat a slightly less progressive candidate by 30 points! In a city that has a history of liberal mayors.

How they are always obsessed with skin pigmentation... by the way, how is an Asian now considered a "person of color"? Would that be "yellow"? No disrespect to Asians. SMH

That phrase sounds like it was poorly translated into English. Who says ‘person of height’ or ‘person of fat’?
Beyond that, I think the woke crew considers Asians to not be ‘persons of color’ for things like college quotas/set asides (affirmative action). Of course that same crew doesn’t realize white is actually a color so we’re not talking genius types in any case.
I have an update about that house with anti-Biden signs with obscenities all over the lawn and their fence. I guess someone made the home owner remove the ones with the obscenities. The other anti-Biden signs have remained.
I did not know how to properly title this. Anyway as I am leaving the Stop and Shop in East Islip today. I hear a bunch of horns honking on sunrise and see pickup trucks driving East bound with flags all over. I was like WTF is this now? I go home and about an hour later I am sitting outside on my front porch. I see another big pickup truck driving westbound on Sunrise with several flags and signs all over saying F....ck Biden. Has anyone else seen this? I am not crazy about Biden either but I don't think I would go to that extreme. First it was the Trump supporters parading down main Street from East Islip to West Islip honking horns go trump. Now today total opposite. Armageddon has begun. Next it's riots in the streets if not already.
Clean that up with Let's Go Brandon.

I'm a new member here, and I just wanted to stop by to congratulate Biden on his historic infrastructure bill. What a great bill for America!!
