thanks! Celerity May 2019 #8

In other words...no impeachment now or soon. Continue investigations of whatever. Honeycombe8 May 2019 #13

Not necessarily. Yours is only one of many possible inferences. LanternWaste May 2019 #21

"Impeachment may be unavoidable" is self-explanatory. It means maybe, but maybe not.nt Honeycombe8 May 2019 #22

No. It means what it says which is "The House may have to impeach." emmaverybo May 2019 #32

"May." Not "will." Not "should." Not "probably." Not "likely." Maybe, maybe not. As I said.nt Honeycombe8 May 2019 #34

Okay, that's what I thought. The fed doesn't have control over that. Honeycombe8 May 2019 #12

A number of other candidates have said they will raise teacher pay...funny no one said anything Demsrule86 May 2019 #15

Another candidate said he/she WILL raise teacher pay? Who? Honeycombe8 May 2019 #16

Harris has for sure...and there are others. Demsrule86 May 2019 #19

Oh. I don't follow her. She's okay, but not one I'm zeroing in on. nt Honeycombe8 May 2019 #20

Sanders. He called for $60k salary minimum for teachers, IIRC. WhiskeyGrinder May 2019 #23

I don't follow him, either. With several saying that, maybe the fed has control over salaries?nt Honeycombe8 May 2019 #25

No, it does not. When candidates make statements like that, I'm assuming they're talking about WhiskeyGrinder May 2019 #26

I see. Then that's what the candidates should say. Honeycombe8 May 2019 #27
