, a Republican candidate for Northampton County, Pennsylvania, executive said he would get school boards to bend to his will by showing up"with 20 strong men" and giving them"an option — they can leave or they can be removed."
"If these people get into positions of school boards, they will start to set curriculum. And that will have a long-term effect," Timmer said, adding that the push for activists to run for school board seats is"as or more alarming than anything I've seen so far." The organizations began flexing their muscles in the conservative backlash over critical race theory, which was often used as a catch-all phrase encompassing diversity training and other anti-racism efforts.
Shorter version: Republicans pounce.
You failed to mention the political driving force of the teacher's union
Trump is a great American hero and leader. Greatest President we will ever see
Such dishonest framing. SchoolChoice has been a thing for decades & has NOTHING to do w/Trump. Trying to make it about Conservatives is just idiotic. It’s about taxpayer $ going with the student, freedom to choose a school, being competitive globally. YOU’RE making it political.
The groups you cited are not 'grassroots'- it's a huge astroturf campaign. They are well funded, staffed, and coordinated. They push the same 'toolkits' and 'expose' links. Much like anti-abortion groups. Add in vote suppression, and it's the same old GOP playbook, new issue.
GOP has been BREEDING CONFLICT- DESTRUCTION& CIAOS SINCE 2000. Is it because their GUILTY OF 911- Jan6 Attack on DEMOCRACY
If you didn’t realize the kids have been used for a while now you been napping. How many school shootings & the fight for the right to keep slaughtering the babies do you need to note this fact? Different battle of the same war by conservatives who are actively anti-life.
This is the platform they’re going for because it’s easy access. If it wasn’t masks and the fictional CRT, they’d argue about liberal perceived books and curriculum. They literally just want something to argue about and it’s the children that suffer.
For all the talk, talk, TALK nothing will be done to stop the GOP's MASTERPLAN; perhaps that’s because nothing CAN be done—if that IS the case, by foolishly, patriotically, clinging to your system of government, your GULLIBLE CONSTITUTION, you’ve brought this on yourselves!!!
And people better wake up and pay attention as to who is elected to their school board.
