Hey, the U.S. Secretary of Education came right out and said it: he doesn’t “respect” parents “acting as if they know what’s right for kids” (https://tennesseestar.com/uncategorized/education-secretary-says-he-doesnt-respect-parents-thinking-they-know-whats-right-for-kids/jtnews/2023/09/25/).

Hear that, you plebs! You’re paying boxcar-loads of money to “educators” who admit that they despise you! Who think they have a license to groom your kids for sex. And teach them that race is everything! Transgender lessons out the wazoo! The whole Far Left culture-killing, family-destroying Fun-Pack!

So… Is Secretary Miguel Cardona right–you’re just a bunch of ignorant peasants, unworthy of respect? Do you want to re-elect his boss, SloJo Biden? How about keeping the whole gang of them in power, lording it over us and using our kids as lab rats in their social experiments?

What do ‘educators’ have to do, to get you to pull your children out of their teachers’ union schools? Or is there just no limit to how much they can insult you and trample on your wishes?

They take your silence as consent. (At first I made an error and typed “content.” Now I wonder if that really was an error.)

Confessions of a Blindfolded Newsman REPRINT

From March 27, 2023

In the 1970s the U.S. Dept. of Education was founded, and various states set up their own departments of education, or else greatly expanded the powers of those already in existence. These steps drastically altered the state of public education in America… not that it ever was all that good an idea in the first place.

I was a newspaper reporter and editor in those days. Among other duties, I covered three school boards and had part-timers covering the rest. When a major story came along, we worked on it together.

Very important changes were put in place back then. These happened right before my eyes: and I’m ashamed to tell you that I didn’t see them. Right out there in front of me, and I might as well have been wearing a blindfold. I can only say I couldn’t see the forest for the trees. Too many distractions kept me from seeing the big picture.

I saw the state education bureaucracy swallow the authority of the local boards–and didn’t realize what I was seeing. I remember now a meeting of the Matawan Board of Education, in which a nerd from the state came and told the board members what New Jersey would be expecting of them from now on.

One member objected. “What is this?” he said. “It sounds like one of those old Soviet five-year plans!” The response was a coy “Tee-hee! Once you buy into the program, you’ll have a clearer understanding.” What I didn’t realize was that he already had a very clear understanding of exactly what the state was doing! But he wound up resigning, and it never occurred to me to sit down with him for an in-depth interview.

Dammit all! I was a newsman, and this was news! I had it in my power to inform the public that they were all being taken for a ride. That they were down there in Trenton growing the government at the community’s expense. That the teachers’ union had the state wrapped around its little finger.

So the people who paid for the schools, and sent their children there, would no longer be getting what they thought they paid their taxes for, but what Far Left teachers’ unions and quasi-Marxist, grey ponytail “educators” in Trenton thought they ought to get.

By and by the newspaper workload became too heavy a burden for me and I resigned, too.

People who don’t much like us, and want to change our way of life, have been working on our schools for fifty years.

Pull your kids out of there. That’s all that’s left for us to do.

‘A Really Lousy Vision for America’ (2014)

Look at this, ten years ago–that’s a long time. But when it comes to abusing the country they’re supposed to govern, there’s no limit to the damage they can cause.

A Really Lousy Vision for America

Yup–government’s job is to “help people change their behavior.” Can you imagine anything more grim and threatening? More antithetical to the spirit by which America was founded?

Well, I can’t.

Walz: Push for ‘Kackle’ When You Shop for Groceries

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

Go ahead–tell me that’s the wrong answer.

Is Tampon Tim quite all there?

When you go grocery shopping, he says, go up to people you don’t know and urge them to ignore those inflationary prices and vote for him and Kacklin’ Kamala. He wants you to back them up against the shelves and have “hard conversations” with them.

His parents have a lot of answer for.

https://twitchy.com/samj/2024/09/15/tim-walz-wants-people-to-approach-others-at-the-grocery-store-n2400978#google_vignette

We went grocery shopping this morning. I don’t know how I would have reacted if some stranger tried to corner me so he or she could stump for Kamala. I like to think I would have just stared at him until he went away. Failing that, I think I might opt for a raspberry.

“Politicize everything” has long been a Democrat pillar of wisdom. Gee, how could it not work?

Remember September 11

Facts You Didn't Know About the Original World Trade Centers ...

The World Trade Center… then

Today is the 23rd anniversary of one of the very worst things ever done on American soil: the all-Muslim terrorist attacks on New York City and the Pentagon. When they crashed their hijacked airliners into the World Trade Center, thousands of Americans died.

Is our government fully, totally, committed to protecting us from those who would slaughter us? In a world where Sept. 11 can happen, and does happen, is it altogether sane even to think about being governed by Kacklin’ Kamala and Tampon Tim? I am not persuaded that they love their country. That us an understatement.

Are we safer now that our government has left our borders gaping open and refuses to enforce our laws?

Terrorism isn’t over. The next attack could happen tomorrow.

God defend us. The state won’t.

 

Government Wants You to Eat Bugs

“Mm-mmm! Won’t my pet lizard be jealous of me!”

They’re doing it again–trying to get normal people to eat bugs. Save The Planet, dontcha know (https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/08/28/government-backed-research-centre-public-insects-lab-grown/).

A government-funded campaign is touting Bug Cuisine for the undefended people of the United Kingdom. (Yeahbut! They’ll be lab-raised insects! Finger-lickin’ good!)

Let’s… what are they selling us?

Abort your babies.

If you don’t abort ’em, at least sterilize ’em with “gender care.”

Eat bugs.

Honk if this program attracts you.

Brought to you in all its glory by the World Economic Forum and the Democrat Party (Labour Party, in the UK).

Are We SURE We Want to Keep Public Schooling?

Your children’s “teachers” hate you.

Taxpayers in Loudon County, Virginia, are paying some Far Left doozie in their school administration more than a quarter million dollars a year to demonstrate how much she despises the people who pay her exorbitant salary (https://www.dailywire.com/news/loudoun-schools-public-relations-honcho-linked-to-anonymous-social-media-attacks-on-journalist-parents-little-d-k-white-people).

And get this. She’s the district’s “family outreach” honcho. (It only hurts when I laugh.) She has voiced contempt for “sex-starved middle-aged soccer moms.” Those people who pay her salary.

And she’s done it before. Loudon County isn’t her first gig.

Why, why, why are we lavishing public money on elitist incompetents who hate us and damage our institutions? If our country goes belly-up–well, couldn’t have done it without our “educators.”

There has to be a better way than this.

Entrusting our children to radical idiots in teachers’ unions is such a bad idea!

P.S.–I forgot to mention that she has asked the federal government to (ahem!) “punish” a local news station for its unfavorable coverage of the school district. Obviously they shouldn’t be allowed to criticize school officials.

Democrat Governor: Black Kids Don’t Know What a Computer Is

New York NOW | Governor Kathy Hochul & Her First Year in Office | Season 2022 | Episode 34 | PBS

Who’s she going to insult this time? She does naturally what Don Rickles had to work at.

Boy, do Democrats ever take their voter base for granted!

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, at a weekend business conference in California: “Black kids in the Bronx don’t know what a computer is” (https://apnews.com/article/hochul-black-kids-bronx-computer-comment-e0c3c69b1ebf9639d8f9e402096f8446). “They don’t even know what the word ‘computer’ is.”

Amid the inevitable backlash, “I misspoke,” she said. She went on to blather about using Artificial Intelligence “to address social inequality.” How about using it to address her head-in-the-clouds elitism?

You support these Democrats year-in, year-out–well, could that be the reason they think you’re too dumb to know what a computer is? Really, it’s astounding, what they get away with. Watch American Jews vote Democrat even as the Party tries to curry favor with Hamas.

Is there anyone these Democrats respect? Is there even one bloc of voters that is not expendable? Is there a limit to how much they can insult people before theyblack lose their votes?

Betcha the answer is “no” to all three.

Democrats’ New York: Subway Assaults Up 53%

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

New York City's subway crime through the decades – New York ...

Maybe they’ll assault the police dog, too.

So you want to ride the New York City subways, do you? Make sure your affairs are in order before you start.

Felony assaults on the city’s subway system went up 53 percent in 2023 (https://www.breitbart.com/2nd-amendment/2024/03/25/felony-assaults-subway-jump-53-percent-gun-controlled-democrat-run-nyc/).

Not even the police officers are safe on the subway: 100 of them were assaulted, too.

And 25 percent of the assaults resulted in “substantial injury” to the victims.

Well, this is what you get when Far Left political appointees in district attorneys’ offices get their hands on the justice system. They’re too busy witch-hunting Donald Trump to bother with protecting New York’s citizens.

Why do they do this? It’s their ideology.

We are governed by people who do not like us.

‘Mommy and Daddy Don’t Need to Know…’

This is what you want for your children? Really?

[Thanks to Susan for the nooze tip.]

California has a law that says a school district can’t keep secrets from the children’s parents. But it doesn’t seem that most “educators” obey it (https://chrisbray.substack.com/p/california-parents-are-fighting-back?).

But then, as one school board member said, “Parents do have expansive rights, and they should; but they don’t own their children.” Meaning “We do!” So no, “Mommy and Daddy don’t need to know about the sexy things we discuss in second grade, kids…”

Seven districts, over the objections of the state school board, have already adopted parental notification policies. The state is out to nail them for that.

Hello, people! You keep sending your kids to these schools because _______? Fill in the blank and win a dunce cap.

Quite simply put, the teachers’ unions have no intention of respecting parents’ rights and they’re not about to change their minds. The only alternative is to pull your children out of public school.

Unless, of course, you want your seven-year-olds discussing Sexy Things with Teacher.
