To draw any conclusions from the Bachelor or Bachelorette is beyond dumb. It's all scripted and it is scripted to create chaos, tension and division. It's TV at it's worse! What do you expect. My biggest complaint with the show is the belief that a half dozen producers and staff could select a couple dozen of the opposite sex and that the single male/female could find true love in that selection by others. Kind of a modern arranged marriage.

One comment in the article "committed relationships are more likely to emerge when women control the selection process.". Probably true. My sister in law told me once that women choose their husband and not the other way around. After some thought I realized she was right. But not for the reason explained in the article. My explanation for this is simply that the woman is the half of the relationship who is more likely to be unhappy and more likely to seek someone else when they are unhappy. So it makes sense that if the woman choose the man she wants that the relationship is more likely to last.

Do I watch these shows? Kind of. I sit there while my wife watches them and I'm careful to not make fun of them or comment. An example of an exception to that rule took place this week. When the bachelor had to chose those who would remain my wife said "he won't pick the sister because dating two sisters would cause problems". Wrong! I said. THAT is the purpose of the show to cause problems and drama of course he will pick the sister AND he will pick the bi-polar bitch that no one likes! And he did, because it's all scripted, every line, every tear, every rose.

This begs the question. We can all agree that IQ can be raised and a good education creates smarter children with a better chance of economic and social success. SOOO!!! WHY DO'T WE DO A BETTER JOB EDUCATING ALL CHILDREN??? Why do we allow the teacher union to scuttle public education for their personal gain of money and power. Every child should get a decent education, black, brown, white, whatever. Every child should be able to read at adult level upon graduation and do simple math. Why do we allow the teachers union to take that from our children???

"Trump White House official Peter Navarro sentenced to 4 months for defying Jan. 6 subpoena"

He should have demanded that they prove he did not appear and testify and insist that all documents and records from the J6 committee be placed into the record to prove he wasn't there.

Also it seems to me that since the J6 committee chose to destroy all records, which was against federal law, that in effect negated any requirement for anyone to testify. There is a legal Latin phrase for it "it doesn't matter" or "no harm no foul" or "the outcome wasn't affected" by his action or lack of action.

Sued in what jurisdiction??? Our courts are corrupt. That is why all the J6 defendants get jailed most of them having literally done nothing wrong. That is why Trump was charged in NYCity, DC and Fulton County Georgia.

No! The "smears" were true. The problem is that the Fox lawyers knew that without regard to the "smears" being true and that as a news outlet they did nothing wrong that they would likely lose and have to pay the much higher cost if they lose because the Lawyers, courts and juries are corrupt. If the venue had been changed to a small town in Iowa Fox would have gone to trial.
