@Gfycs @Ryanhillstead84 @tonyposnanski Sorry, dude. The Sox have clearly angered Jobu. Banana Ball Magic doesn’t have standing here.

@dmcnamee @Ryanhillstead84 @tonyposnanski Those damn Bananas made the Red Sox lose today. Do your research!!!

The person that is on your timeline shitting on the Savannah bananas is the same person who thinks Trevor Bauer should be a starter for the Mets, Donald Trump should’ve won the Nobel peace prize, and Kid Rock is the best rapper on the planet.

@CDV4Democracy @LEBassett At this point, “said nothing” is the best description of your reply to OP. In what ways do ABA, LSAC, the IEEE, or the WNBA keep out worthy applicants to legal ed/practice? You’ve laid your charges and, despite this being Twitter, I want to understand your foundation for them.

@dmcnamee @LEBassett I said nothing about the standardized test.

They’re going after law school accreditation because they can’t find accredited lawyers willing to work for Trump’s DOJ

@mvndiaFC Depends. I haven’t been to my undergrad library in ages, but you only had to be student to check out an item or access special collections in the main library. The medical library was restricted entry to med college students and staff.

Can you not just walk into most campus libraries?

@Ryanhillstead84 @tonyposnanski How? I’m pretty sure they played a full slate in the Show, across the minors, and internationally. If that’s ruined then someone goofed.

@tonyposnanski No. The bananas are ruining baseball. I hate trump btw

@CDV4Democracy @LEBassett Now it’s LSAC, too? Anybody else you’d like to add to the list? Take the GRE instead of LSAT, go to a unaccredited school, and practice wherever they accept you. Seriously, what should I be reading to find the substance behind your talking points?

@dmcnamee @LEBassett Combined with the LSAC, the combination of policy and enforcement, to make law school rankings, compel law school admissions committees to decide, away from pure ability, aptitude, experience, merit-- let alone the applicants needed in law for Justice for all.

@CDV4Democracy @LEBassett Well, I’m an old, straight, white dude that was just admitted to an ABA accredited program. Are you suggesting that was because of some policy diktat from the ABA rather than the school’s own admissions considerations?

@dmcnamee @LEBassett ACCREDITED schools, private & public-the requisite accessible programs to pass bar in MOST jurisdictions. ABA monopoly sets policies, requirements for law school accredited admissions committees. Compelling LS to accept applicants for rank by policy not merit & nondiscrimination.

@CDV4Democracy @LEBassett There are law schools that aren’t ABA accredited. Feel free to attend one.

@dmcnamee @LEBassett I said nothing about the bar. I am referring to the private monopoly on studying law.

@ChrisKlemmer Nah. Replica Yankee Stadium has all the charm and warmth of a Cemex factory.

Am I entering the worst park in the MLB?

@CDV4Democracy @LEBassett State Bars set the rules for who can practice, not the ABA. If the Louisiana Bar wants to accept 200 Abita labels as proof of minimum academic competency, laissez les bons temps rouler.

@LEBassett Maybe. But. You have to remember. The current accreditation model, ABA policies lead to decisions made by ranking & discrimination, not ability, merit, talent. Policies set by a private monopoly to be allowed to study, practice public law.

@photog_JayMac Orlando had a AA team for ages. Moved it from Tinker Field nearish downtown to Disney WWOS under the “tourists will love to see baseball on their family vacation” logic. That team is now the Montgomery Biscuits.

So I'm in Orlando this weekend for a volleyball tournament. Specifically the tourist corridor. Where they want to build their baseball stadium. That is a terrible idea. Traffic is everywhere. And sure, tourists will go, but will locals? I doubt it. #DreamOn

The arguments behind every landmark Supreme Court ruling have never been freely available to the public… until now. Thanks to a gift from the Wolf Law Library at William & Mary Law School, more than 125,000 #SCOTUS records & briefs are now freely freely available on the Internet Archive, spanning 1830 through 2019. The arguments that shaped America, including Brown v. Board of Education. Loving v. Virginia.

@loughnane_kevin @americamag Tony Schwartz wrote The Art of the Deal, and ceasefires don’t usually include bombings and missile attacks. Stay out of traffic, Spanky.

@americamag Trump wrote the art of the deal. He spoke in the only language the mullahs understand and knew darn well he wasn’t bluffing. Now we have a 2 week ceasefire to work with. Stay in your lane, Leo!

@Forbes @SteveForbesCEO I’m all for a good free market approach. This isn’t it. Where is the break up of monopolies and trusts that strip choice from the market? Where’s the attack on the cult of “shareholder value” that leads to so many claim denials? This is a warmed-over skit from the eighties.

.@SteveForbesCEO explains why free markets are the cure to the disease of out-of-control healthcare costs and will spare us from the disaster of a government-run single-payer model. #WhatsAhead

@ELMiKiNGBiNG @GeauxGabrielle Get it right, sugar… this administration has decided it is the sole arbiter of who is legal and will change that without any due process. TPS? Reversed. Green card? Revoked. Naturalized citizen? Denaturalized. Any “legal“ Cuban could quickly find themselves declared illegal.

@GeauxGabrielle Get it right honey, its the illegal Cubans!! Not the ones here legally sweety!!

Florida Cubans truly thought they were gonna be EXEMPT from Trump 2.0? Pathetic.

@TB_Times Segregationist horse crap. How is Episcopal math class different - other than the classroom being 90%, or more, white. We can work out public education for all that can be augmented by private, religious instruction - funded privately or by the religious institution of choice.

Florida should fund religious charter schools, AG Uthmeier says tampabay.com/news/education…

@TruthQuest1122 @Ne_pas_couvrir @KentAtwater7 In historical context, because she was groundbreaking reporter, Dorothy Fuldheim, and Ben Stein was some putz escaped from White House comms who wrote Nixon’s holiday proclamations. In other words, she was the star, Stein was a wannabe, and WFB needed to fill a chair that week.

@Ne_pas_couvrir @KentAtwater7 Yes she was not accurate or intelligent. Why was she even there?

Here’s Ben Stein in 1979 describing television as an engine of cultural demoralization. He argues that a small clique of producers and writers pushed a left-coded inversion of reality onto the public. They despised traditional power centers and hated figures like Buckley. They propagandized the nation into accepting a fake world where businessmen are villains, criminals are the good-guys, small towns are sinister, military officers are proto-fascists, and work barely exists.

TPS revocation, denaturalization, jus sanguinis, tribal disenrollment. All related, right?

@TBBaseballMkt Suspicious of a Florida developer with close ties to the Governor? Next you’re gonna tell me you don’t trust the raccoons to stay out of your garbage cans!

Water St 1.0 brought a lot of transplants who disrupted Tampa's apt and housing market. And the godawful influencers. Where are the people for the Rays Water St 2.0 gonna come from? More New Yorkers? Honestly this part makes me suspicious of Zalupski.

@TheLoopyBlgger Respect. I just don’t understand why Mike Gallego jerseys are so popular, though.

Shouts to all the Yankee fans who’s pinstripes jersey doesn’t have a name on them

@academic_la Biblical stories set prior/near to Bronze Age collapse have long been viewed as oral tradition + morality tales. Exodus may blend middle Bronze Age migrations w/ religious origin myth. Fine. Bringing this up during Passover? Mishugaas. Want to do forged Josephus passages next?

Here is why the Passover story of Egyptian Exodus is completely made up. Not only is there no evidence for it, but it is chronologically impossible. Not on the scale mentioned in the bible or on any scale at all: 1) Decades of intensive archaeological surveys in the Sinai Peninsula have failed to uncover any remains, such as pottery, encampments, or human waste, that would indicate a population of over two million people spent 40 years wandering the desert. Not one piece of pottery, one hearth, or one Hebrew inscription from that era has been found in the Sinai. 2) Ancient Egypt was a highly literate society with meticulous administrative records. Despite this, no Egyptian text from the Bronze Age mentions a mass slave revolt, the devastating plagues, or the loss of an entire army in the sea. 3) Modern archaeology suggests that the ancient Israelites were actually indigenous to Canaan. They appear to have emerged from local Canaanite populations during the Bronze Age collapse, rather than arriving as a conquering force from outside. 4) The biblical figure of 603,550 men (totaling roughly 2.5 million people including families) is logistically impossible for the time. A line of that many people, walking eight abreast, would have been hundreds of miles long, meaning the front would reach the destination while the back was still in Egypt. 5) The Book of Exodus mentions places like the city of Rameses and the land of Goshen, as well as the use of camels, which were not in existence or common at the time the events were supposed to have occurred. This suggests the story was written centuries later. Archaeology shows that at the time the conquest was supposed to happen, Jericho had no walls and was either a tiny village or completely uninhabited. 6) If 2.5 million people entered a land from Egypt, you would expect to see a sudden, massive shift in technology, diet, or burial customs. Instead, we see a slow, internal evolution. The people who became "Israelites" were likely local Canaanite farmers and nomadic herders who moved into the highlands to escape the collapse of the coastal city-states. 7) The Exodus is said to have took place well before there is evidence of Israelites existing. The bible has it at 1446 BCE. The first mention of Israelites is in 1208 by the Pharaoh Merneptah. He mentions them as a foreign people with no ties to Egypt. 8) The biggest hole in the story is that during the 13th century BCE (the time of Ramesses II), Canaan was an Egyptian province. Egypt had forts, tax collectors, and governors all over the "Promised Land."If the Israelites fled Egypt to go to Canaan, they were essentially "fleeing Egypt to go to Egypt." 9) The story appears to have been made up during the Babylonian Exile in the 6th century BCE. They needed a story to give them hope: a story where their God defeats a superpower Egypt) and leads them back to their homeland. By creating a shared "escape" story, they turned a collection of local Canaanite tribes into a single, unified nation. So this is a beautiful story, but a complete myth. Its greatest value is that it has inspired many to pursue freedom, most famously African Americans who identified deeply with the story.
