Why the sudden interest in test scores in a particular city?

Do you have an explanation for them? None of your leftist buddies have come up with one.

Remember, the school district in question has the third highest spending per student in the country, so you can't revert to your usual weak fallback position.

No definition of censorship includes the words forcible.

Only the douchiest dem doofus would claim "censorship" for a tweet that wasn't taken down (and is probably still there today), but look the other way when the entire Twitter account of one of America's biggest newspapers is suspended in order to prevent them publicising the Biden crime family laptop story.

Why the sudden interest in test scores in a particular city? Interest in a certain laptop computer or Hillary Klingon's server and emails waning? But wait. KKKarlson has gobs of videos of citizens strolling through Das Kapital. Not interested in classified documents roaming Willy Nilly or impending criminal indictments?

Foxy News and "the big lie" finally bit them in the ass?

Foxy Muse, shows its real colors, as damning emails reveals, from the Dominion Voting Systems law suit court filing, that they once again, are nothing more than the sham and fraudulent news media, we've also known them to be. One without an once of any type of journalistic integrity.

The emails show, that behind closed doors, between executives and their big on-air-pundits, that no matter what, they continue to perpetrate "the Big Lie" and the fake MAGA election claims, that was inevitably more appealing to their ratings and bottom line, than it was to tell the nation, the truth.

Naturally, it wasn't very hard to sell to the gullible masses of QAnon\Repubs\MAGA insurrectionist supporters on the right, as they bought "the Big Lie" ...hook, line and sinker.

That's Foxy Muse, they will always chose lies for the sake of ratings over the truth, every time. I think one politician said it best (or facsimile), "Fox News is nothing more than a state own media company, an extension of the Republican party" (Note: This was while or since Trump took office).

Seriously, folks; sleep well in the knowledge that every kid in Baltimore can tell you what the square root of 8 is inside of five seconds. That hurdle has been surmounted now and forever into the future with the help of that little calculator / selfie device stuffed in their hip pocket.

But if they're fed and believe the America-hating horse shit shoveled down the throats of Faux News viewers and most other winger sources viewers, the country is doomed.

What the moron brigade will do is say that this is all "fake news". That's why it is so easy to be a Repub. If something doesn't conform to your warped worldview, you just scream LŰGENPRESSE at the top of your lungs and the rest of the moron brigade just nods.

Dear God you are a cretin. Asking someone to remove a post, and doing nothing when they refuse, is not censorship.

Censorship is when you forcibly remove a post or prevent someone from publishing something. Like the left did with the Biden crime family laptop corruption scandal, and much more besides.

Just for once in your simple, CNN-watching, public miseducation-brainwashed life, try and engage what few gray cells you possess behind your dull cow eyes.

No definition of censorship includes the words forcible. That is something you came up with in your warped homophopic, xenophobic and misogynistic mind. https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dic...ish/censorship or https://www.collinsdictionary.com/di...ish/censorship.

But this is very typical of MAGAworld. So much so that Twitter started keeping a database of requests https://www.rollingstone.com/politic...ip-1234675969/ I wish the above article would have detailed how many requests came from Donnie the Dumbass' administration and how many came from President Biden's administration.

And speaking of "misinformation", more Repugs are suspended from Twitter than Democrats because they spread more BULLSHIT. https://www.newsnationnow.com/busine...-takes-a-look/ But this isn't surprising because most of them believe more bullshit.

Glaring as it maybe, it's only 1st grade students, don't over think it.

Like I said, it's not how you start your schooling, it's how you finish your schooling. The state has some of the best great graduation rates, in the country.

No, it is not only first graders.

https://foxbaltimore.com/news/local/...2-in-new-study

"Among the list of 23 schools, there are 10 high schools, eight elementary schools, three Middle / High schools and two Elementary / Middle schools. And it's important to note, another 20 Baltimore City Schools had just one or two students test proficient in math. ".

Also, why are you talking about Maryland's state graduation rates? This is about Baltimore city.

Democrat-controlled Baltimore city public education receives far higher funding per student than the rest of Maryland (the third highest of any district in the entire country) and yet its results are terrible as we can see.

Again, now that your usual leftist canard of "muh funding" has been proven false, how do you explain this?

Why? If you Google " Top 10 Largest School Districts by Per Pupil Current Spending", that's the first thing that comes up. But if you follow the link on the chart, it will take you here.

https://www.census.gov/programs-surv...-finances.html

That's better...much appreciated!

[Spidy]

...

Also don't label people you don't know.

That's literally his thing.

Don't worry though, if enviably, he ends-up calling you the "D-bag" word insult. You won't be the first and you probably won't be last.

[Tiny 12]

My goodness indeed...kkkk! It that your fancy way off saying I don't know what top and bottom of the illiteracy and literacy rate tables look like.

Exactly.

I think most people know what the bottom and top of a chart looks like, never mind the percentages you care to spin.

Yes, that's correct too.

[Spidy]

SPIDY, my goodness, you think that 84% of the population in Mississippi, Louisiana and Nevada is illiterate? No wonder you insist on calling Nevada a swing state instead of a blue state. Those numbers are the % of the population exhibiting "basic prose literacy skills." Or what World Population Review is calling the "literacy rate." Subtract the literacy rate from 100% to get the % of the population that's illiterate, defined, again, as the % of "American adults age 16 and over (that) lack basic prose literacy skills defined as ranging from being fully unable to read to only being able to understand short, commonplace text in English, but nothing more advanced." California and New York are at the top of the list, with only 76.9% and 77.9% respectively exhibiting basic prose literacy skills. Nevada, New Mexico, and Louisiana are in 8th through 10th places.

My goodness indeed...kkkk! It that your fancy way off saying I don't know what top and bottom of the illiteracy and literacy rate tables look like.

Spin it any way you want. I think most people know what the bottom and top of a chart looks like, never mind the percentages you care to spin.

Red states like Mississippi and Louisiana are commonly at the bottom illiteracy and literacy rate tables. Period.

[Tiny 12]

Glaring as it maybe, it's only 1st grade students, don't over think it.

Like I said, it's not how you start your schooling, it's how you finish your schooling. The state has some of the best great graduation rates, in the country.

I don't believe that's correct. From memory, I think that included elementary, middle and high schools. However I'm too lazy to look it up. Maybe you could do me the favor of providing something that says it's only 1st grade students, since I dug up links for Chris' chart.

As to your defense of Maryland and the Baltimore school system, which you make solely because they're blue, Chris is right. Maryland is probably in the top 5 in the nation in advanced degrees and income per capita, because of all the high level, highly paid employees of the federal government, government contractors, and lobbyists and think tanks and the like. Yet still many of the schools are a laughingstock.

[Tiny 12]

Do you mean the theft, misappropriation and miss-allocation of educational funds and welfare aid / funds, in a state like Mississippi, that continually rank at the bottom of the country in corruption, poverty and education.

What are you talking about? The link you provide has Mississippi, Louisiana and Nevada at the bottom of the literacy rate table, with 84%, 84% and 83.9%, respectfully. Check the tab, that shows the "bottom" of the literacy rate table, in your link.

The results from your link, is very much in-line with the results, from a previous " illiteracy table" I provided, that uses a few other metrics, but mirrors the same results w / are to red states common at the bottom. No bias here, just the data. See the following link.

https://wisevoter.com/state-rankings...rate-by-state/

Your link of "literacy rates" only showing the reciprocal of what I already showed you, with illiteracy rates.

SPIDY, my goodness, you think that 84% of the population in Mississippi, Louisiana and Nevada is illiterate? No wonder you insist on calling Nevada a swing state instead of a blue state. Those numbers are the % of the population exhibiting "basic prose literacy skills." Or what World Population Review is calling the "literacy rate." Subtract the literacy rate from 100% to get the % of the population that's illiterate, defined, again, as the % of "American adults age 16 and over (that) lack basic prose literacy skills defined as ranging from being fully unable to read to only being able to understand short, commonplace text in English, but nothing more advanced." California and New York are at the top of the list, with only 76.9% and 77.9% respectively exhibiting basic prose literacy skills. Nevada, New Mexico, and Louisiana are in 8th through 10th places.

Btw, "Reciprocal" doesn't mean what you think it does.

Also, when you say that red states are common at the bottom of the wisevoter list, yeah, you're right. Iowa, Utah, Wyoming, North Dakota, Montana, and Alaska are all in the bottom 10, of the LEAST illiterate states, according to wisevoter.

Yeah, that's not what I asked for. I asked if there was a webpage, associated with the chart. Meaning a page that had text associated with the chart. Got it?

Why? If you Google " Top 10 Largest School Districts by Per Pupil Current Spending", that's the first thing that comes up. But if you follow the link on the chart, it will take you here.

Which is greater, 10+ significant and now revered legislation proposed, fought for and passed when Dems held the WH and the majority in both houses of Congress or 0 by Repubs when they had the same advantage?

Every Great Repub Depression / Recession and Massive Job Losses of the past 100 years minus none of the Great Recoveries, Economic Expansions and Job Gains = ?

81,000,000 votes vs 74,000,000 votes + 306 EC votes vs 232 EC votes + 65 lost court case challenges and no wins = ?

5 months with no Pandemic Prevention and Response minitoring and reporting minus a 2 month heads up to avert a Pandemic and all of the deaths and economic destruction that followed = ?
