Sheila Jackson Lee Confidently Pronounces to Schoolchildren That the Moon is "Mostly Made Up of Gases"

She's thinking of her own nasty fart-moon.

The Party of Science (TM) continues to astound.

Democrat congresswoman incorrectly tells schoolchildren that moon is "made up mostly of gases"

During an eclipse event at Booker T. Washington High School in Houston, Texas Monday, Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee made puzzling remarks about the moon's composition, incorrectly suggesting it was "made up mostly of gases." This statement diverged sharply from established astronomical facts, sparking both amusement and concern over public understanding of basic space science.

The comments were made as Jackson Lee participated in a community event focused on Monday's eclipse, aiming to engage and educate attendees about astronomical phenomena.

Lee, a former member of the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology, described the moon as a "complete rounded circle, which is made up mostly of gases," a description that inaccurately represents the moon's solid, rocky nature.

NYT: Bragg's case is weak, but it is strong enough for Judge Merchan. Sure the whole thing might fall apart on appeal, but the point is to put Trump on trial *now.*

That's the NYT admitting that.

That way Biden and Democrats can call him a 'convicted felon' in the campaign. 'But in the following months, Bragg beat back legal challenges. He detailed the crimes that Trump was trying to conceal -- violations of state and federal election law and state tax law. When Trump's lawyers tried to move the case to federal court, the judge there, Alvin K. Hellerstein, rebuffed them, saying that the fact that the alleged fraud happened in a federal election was "not a basis" to move the case. Then the New York judge overseeing the case, Juan M. Merchan, ruled that Bragg's prosecutors had presented "legally sufficient evidence" for the grand jury to reasonably find that Trump intended to defraud voters and the government. Some initial skeptics have come around, even if they believe that the legal questions surrounding the case will probably re-emerge in appeals.

Biden will run only on abortion.

President Joe Biden can't base his reelection campaign on any actual successes, so he has to base it all on supporting the killing of unborn children.

Abortion is just about the only thing Biden has working for him in his reelection campaign, which explains the wall-to-wall media coverage of former President Donald Trump's grand abortion plan. Trump dropped his ridiculous notion that he could reach a "compromise" with Democrats on the issue, reaching the conclusion that the issue should be left to the states.

This is a five-alarm fire for Democrats and their media allies because every opinion on abortion that isn't legal abortion up to birth with no restrictions is a five-alarm fire for them. Biden and Democratic operatives want to turn this into the biggest issue for 2024 because it is the only issue that Biden even has a pulse on at this point.
