Biden sent 70 secret night flights of migrants from border to Florida

More than 70 flights transporting migrants from the southern border to Jacksonville have landed in the dark of night in recent months as the Biden administration struggles to empty overflowing border facilities, the office of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said.

It is the first time the state of Florida has disclosed the number of confirmed flights arriving in the state since the summer. The governor's office has scrambled in recent weeks to uncover who is facilitating the mystery flights landing in northern Florida daily, but the Biden administration has refused to disclose any information, one official said.

"We're in a sad situation of trying to run an investigation. Who is facilitating this travel? How are they getting here? Who are the support people? Who are the sponsors?" Keefe asked.

I guess I should be happy that you are sad because it is an admission that you view teaching as relevant and impactful on society.
I've always seen the irony in the many on the right who degrade the teaching profession out of one side of their mouth while bemoaning the negative effects of the educational system on society out of the other side.
I'm guessing you guys can't fully appreciate that irony.

But no need to be sad. When I had the honor and privilege of teaching kids, I followed my favorite Einstein quote:
“Education is not the learning of facts, but the training of minds to think.”
In fact, it's a poster I always encourage new teachers to place in their classroom.
I have seen many students, many adults, and a whole lot of people in the PF, who knew plenty of facts but could not think their way out of a wet paper bag.
It was never more evident than in my first venture into the 2a thread. I was amazed at the amount of factual knowledge coupled with the complete inability to think.
Einstein had a notoriously poor memory. When asked how it was that he could not know his own phone number, Einstein replied,
"Never memorize something that you can look up.”

Today it is even worse, we are now surrounded by non-thinkers who are only memorizing alternative facts.

Yes clearly you are brilliant as evident by your districts test scores and teaching your own kids to have careers in political activism. Not to mention you were completely factual and logically wrong in the 2A thread. Like I said there are some great teachers out there, unfortunately you don’t seem to be one of them

Who in the hell is flying these, and on what/who's airplanes are they?

The problem that conservatives have with the Public Education System is that teachers are not "training minds to think". They are "brainwashing the minds of America's youth to think like them."

It seems like more conservatives would get into teaching.

Among teachers in our district, conservatives outnumber liberals. Not to the same ratio as the county as a whole, but close.

Forgive me if I don't trust for one second your classification of people as "conservative".

Maybe I should have said "vote republican". Better?

So, now you're telling me that you know how every teacher in your district votes. I consider that statement every bit as reliable as your classification of people on a scale of liberal to conservative.

Wait. Isn't this needless carbon emissions in the atmosphere?

Yes, it does .... but they don't care ..... hypocrisy on display at it's finest w/Democrats.

No matter your political affiliation you have to admit this one is pretty good.

Democrats are still buying those votes in advance .... a good strategy in winning elections.

I don't really give a flip what you believe.
It's odd that you are so vested in the false belief that only liberals teach.

Not only are you a brainwashed liberal that believes are the lies from the left, you can't read either. 423 never posted that "only liberals teach".

 

[CagleMtnVol]

This!

lol.....no one actually believes that only liberals teach.
But he did seem bizarrely reluctant to accept that I live and work in a district where the majority of teachers are conservative.
Here are some general questions for you guys to ponder.
What % of public school teachers nationwide claim to be conservative?
Would the % be the same in California and in Oklahoma?
Would the % be the same within every district of California or within Oklahoma?
Would you expect the political views of teachers to partially mirror the views of the community?

This just serves as further proof of how you twist people's words to try to change the conversation. I had no clue where you live. I don't care. It has no bearing on what I said. I said that I don't trust for one second your classification of people as "conservative". You then claimed that the majority of the teachers in your district vote Republican. Like a lot of other things that you like to try to claim as fact, you have no way of knowing that. Therefore, once again I will state that I don't trust your statements.

This!

A POTUS would be assassinated before they could get any of that done. But yeah that’s what needs to happen.

who cares about the political makeup of teacher in Cali or Oklahoma? They all just need to teach math , reading , writing, and actual history. And STFU about their political preferences.
