This is not valuing male athletic achievement over female athletic achievement but recognizing the physical factors that contribute to athletic performance, which in many instances give men and advantage over women in heads-to-head competition. To explicitly discuss these differences is not transphobic, in my opinion. One can support transgender identity and equal protection under the law on the one hand, but not necessarily support transgender athletes as "equivalent" when it comes to athletic competition.equivalent" when it comes to athletic competition.)

- Cruz wants to abolish doors - Workflow + (Senator Ted Cruz of Texas has continually … Senator Ted Cruz of Texas has continually put forward a lie—that we don’t need gun control in the US. Now he is spreading a lie about that lie! He says the best way to avoid school shooting is to make schools more like prisons or military facilities, to “harden” them. The general idea, apparently, is that if a school has one point of entry, and that doorway is well guarded, a gunman might have greater difficulty killing people inside. Who needs gun control, the argument goes, when all we really need is door control.</br></br>There are a variety of reasons this is a difficult idea to take seriously.</br></br>First, I’m reasonably sure this would be a serious fire hazard in many school buildings nationwide.</br></br>Second, a lot of schools have windows.</br></br>Third, what about schools made up of several buildings, with students walking outdoors between them. Mandating “one door that goes in and out of the school” would be literally impossible.</br></br>Fourth, mass shootings don’t just happen in schools — and I’m not sure having one entry point to a grocery store is realistic.</br></br>Finally, there’s also reason to be skeptical of the underlying point. Juliette Kayyem, a veteran of the Obama administration’s Department of Homeland Security, and currently a lecturer in international security at Harvard, wrote on Twitter, “The ‘one door’ theory of schools is not how we think about education or design, but it’s also not how we think about security. It actually is bad safety planning. A ‘psychopath’ would then just target the kids backed up in line and waiting for this ‘one door’ to let them through.”</br></br>Or put another way, those looking at Cruz’s idea as a credible policy proposal are almost certainly making a mistake.</br></br>https://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/maddowblog/latest-school-shooting-ted-cruz-focuses-doors-rcna30630</br></br>URL: https://www.salon.com/2022/05/26/ted-cruz-thinks-he-has-a-better-solution-to-uvalde-school-than-control-door-control/o-uvalde-school-than-control-door-control/)

"Lucky I Declassified!" he wrote in a post this Wednesday.</br></br>Trump's comments about this supposed declassification have been very vague. But conservative writer John Solomon, one of the people Trump named as a representative in his dealings with the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), was more specific in a Fox appearance on August 12. Solomon read a statement, which he said was from Trump's office, claiming that Trump "had a standing order...that documents removed from the Oval Office and taken to the residence were deemed to be declassified the moment he removed them."</br>This is patently false. Trump and his team have not provided any proof that Trump actually conducted some sort of broad declassification of the documents that ended up at Mar-a-Lago. What's more, eighteen former top Trump administration officials, including two former White House chiefs of staff who spoke on the record, told CNN in August that they never heard of a standing Trump declassification order when they were serving in the administration and that they now believe the claim is false.

- Bird Names for Birds - Workflow + (The concern about eponymous and honorific … The concern about eponymous and honorific common bird names is not new. But the movement to see these names changed is.</br></br>Eponyms (a person after whom a discovery, invention, place, etc., is named or thought to be named) and honorific common bird names (a name given to something in honor of a person) are problematic because they perpetuate colonialism and the racism associated with it. The names that these birds currently have—for example, Bachman’s Sparrow—represent and remember people (mainly white men) who often have objectively horrible pasts and do not uphold the morals and standards the bird community should memorialize.</br></br>The vast majority of eponymous common names were applied to birds by European and American naturalists during a period of time known as colonialism, when (primarily) European countries subjugated, exploited, and populated territories held by non-white peoples. To legitimize this endeavor, the concept of race as a classification system was developed, and the white “race” and civilization were considered superior to all others. The impacts of colonialism were global, and the false concept of race used to justify colonialism resulted in the reality of racism, a reality which has structured societies, interactions, and even survival ever since.</br></br>Eponymous common names are essentially verbal statues. They were made to honor the benefactor in perpetuity, and as such reflect the accomplishments and values that the creator esteemed. We are not bound by either the intention or the regard; we should make decisions about who and what we honor based on our own values, values that create a more equitable world for all. By continuing to use eponymous common bird names, we continue to reference and honor our distressful colonial heritage and the racism that was a direct consequence of this malicious exploitation. This is unacceptable, and we must do better.</br></br>Current events in 2020 renewed societal emphasis on social justice and have shown that the time to reevaluate is now, and are largely why this initiative formalized. We are overdue individually, as groups and communities, and as a society to reevaluate our biases, remove barriers of all kinds, and be better. </br></br>Bird Names For Birds—both the initiative and the actual bird names—will not end racism. It won’t even end all of the EDI problems within the bird community. However, it is one step. It is one problem that the bird community can be self-aware of, acknowledge, and rectify. </br>A growing movement to reexamine names bestowed on everything from college campuses to city streets has swelled to encompass birders, ornithologists, and conservationists. Doing away with honorifics, they say, and renaming birds for the qualities that make each special, could make the birding world more inclusive for those who have long been left out or pushed away. Once unthinkable, the scientific body that governs bird names is finally embarking on a process that could redefine not only what we call myriad birds but also birding itself. </br></br>About 150 of the roughly 2,000 North and Central American bird species have honorifics. Most were named for naturalists, such as Alexander Wilson, a chronicler of birdlife during the early 19th century and widely considered the father of American ornithology. The handful of names that commemorate women mostly use first names; Anna’s Hummingbird is a tribute to French courtier Anna Masséna, wife of an amateur ornithologist. While these figures don’t stir up much controversy, other species are saddled with heavier burdens.</br></br>Audubon’s Shearwater and Audubon’s Oriole honor renowned avian artist John James Audubon (also the namesake of this magazine), an enslaver who collected skulls from Texas battlefields during his travels.

Get a daily recap of the facts that matter. Sign up for the free Mother Jones newsletter. A newly discovered laptop, the FBI, a trove of emails, October, a presidential election—it sounds familiar. Especially when you add in a Russian disinformation campaign. On Wednesday, the New York Post released what it hailed as a bombshell: an unidentified computer repair store owner in Delaware had come to possess a laptop that contained Hunter Biden emails (and purportedly a sex tape), the hard drive and computer was seized by the FBI, the store owner at some point passed a copy of the hard drive to Rudy Giuliani, and one of the emails suggested that Hunter, who served on the board of Ukrainian energy company Burisma, may have in 2015 introduced a Burisma official to his dad, Vice President Joe Biden. The story depicts this as a big scandal, and Guiliani tweeted, “Much more to come.” </br></br>But the key point of the article was predicated on false information that Giuliani</br> has been spreading for a long time—and that appears to be linked to a Russian disinformation operation that the Post neglected to note in its article. That is, the Post piece, based on an unproven smear, is in sync with Moscow’s ongoing effort to influence the 2020 election to help President Donald Trump retain power. (The FBI and other parts of the US intelligence community have stated that Vladimir Putin is once again attacking the US political system to boost Trump.) </br>And this story presents a challenge to the American media: how to report on an orchestrated campaign to affect the election that relies on disinformation, salacious and sensational material, and the revival of allegations that have already been debunked.legations that have already been debunked.)

How do we know that government aid isn’t the reason the economy’s tanking now? Just by looking around the world, and observing. If it were the case that stimulus led to inflation, then of course countries with the greatest support would have the highest inflation. But that’s not true. Europe, which offered people way, way more support than America and the UK, has lower inflation rates. And plenty of countries which offered people no support — because they’re poor nations — have skyrocketing inflation rates. </br></br>It’s not about stimulus.</br></br>This isn’t demand-led inflation. When people subscribe to this naive pop myth that “printing money during the pandemic caused inflation,” what are they really saying?
