    This is all over allowing whole milk to be served again in public schools which stopped being served in favor of low-fat skim, 1%, and 2% after child health initiatives were put in place during the Obama administration.

    These people are ridiculous.

      Being ridiculous is the point - to denigrate our institutions with frivolity and poor leadership.

        To the point to which we equate all politicians with this type of behavior, and just throw up our hands in disgust.

          The arc of history sometimes bends imperceptibly towards justice, and at such times it is our lot to bend it ourselves.

        That, and they are adequately representing the portion of the electorate that thinks InfoWars is reliable news

      Now I disagree with the ridiculous arguments they have been making in favor of this, but I think whole milk should be offered as an option to school kids. There are increasingly more studies that show the fear of fats in food is unjustified (not to mention that manufacturers’ solution was to replace fat with sugar in their products).
