Promote mass exodus from public squirrels

Its good to see states pushing back on this overreach.

MO, FL

Even our Lt. Gov Mark Robinson got into the act (NC Gov Cooper is a leftist weasel, and a spineless one at that)

Won't that overwhelm private squirrels? Those little guys are used to keeping to themselves, and only so many people are able to home squirrel. I mean, think about mowing your lawn - how many trees have you got?

Maybe 1000? 1500 trees? Dunno for sure.

Stay in the government tree if you wish. I mean what do people really expect from government school?

Oh, so you're squirrels are priviledged!

'I'm A Little Worried About What My Son Is Learning In School,' Says Dangerous Domestic Terrorist

October 6th, 2021 - BabylonBee.com




EL MONTE, CA—"I'm a little worried about what my son is learning school," said a dangerous domestic terrorist at a school board meeting earlier today.

The radical insurrectionist went on to say that "teaching kids to be racist and all about graphic depictions of sex seems a little problematic to me," confirming fears that she has been radicalized by fanatical right-wingers.

She was quickly added to the FBI Most Wanted list after expressing her concern that her children were being influenced by Marxist teachings and radical sex instruction by crazed left-wing nutjobs. Experts say she may be part of a growing number of deranged extremists who violently question the government's ownership of their children by attending the "open comments" portion of a school board meeting.

At publishing time, she had confirmed her belief that parents should be the number-one influence on a child's mind and that the government does not own her children, causing FBI agents to gun her down on the spot, saving us all.

Powerline brings up an ugly thought

"But the more insidious reference is to “threats.” How, exactly, is the FBI going to investigate these purported threats? The NSBA’s letter to Biden specifically invoked the PATRIOT Act as it relates to domestic terrorism. I take it the reference is to Title II, “Enhanced Surveillance Procedures.” Title II provides broad authority for interception of electronic and telephone communications. So does Garland’s direction to the FBI mean that the Bureau will undertake to collect emails sent and received by parents who are concerned about Critical Race Theory? Or monitor their telephone calls?"

There was a time when such a thought was ridiculous. but not now

We are witnessing the birth, in real time, of the Amerikan Gestapo.

Understand it for what it is. Biden & Co. don't really know what they can do legally, and don't care. They also don't really know what they can get away with politically. Finally, they don't really understand what is logistically possible. They're basically trying to make enough noise to scare PTA parents into submission without saying anything specific enough to get themselves hauled into court or overrun by a bunch of mamas with pitchforks and torches. They can't help (or can't be bothered to sort through) the uncertainties they're facing, so they're trying to exploit uncertainty as a social control weapon.

This has been the issue with the current regime from the get go. Can't extend the eviction moratorium? Fuck it, re-issue it and make the courts strike it down. We'll get a few more months out of the illegal order.

We are living in, and witnessing, a post-constitutional society. The law just simply does not apply at that level anymore. The law is a joke, something to be laughed at while elites sip their martini's (err, veggie shakes) and issue dictates to the serfs.

^^^ Not entirely, IMHO. They've got a year and a month before the next elections, and the mere fact that they managed to steal the Presidency by corrupt practices in one county in each of five states does not mean they have the ability to steal the House and Senate.

If Biden acts beyond his powers, the moves can be challenged in court. If the court process takes more than a year and a month (and court processes often do), then both houses in Congress could quite easily flip before Biden's high jinx escape being reversable by the courts - or the government.

If both houses flip, Biden can no longer tell the government to act on his unConstitutional horse manure because Congress can cripple his ability to do so.

Focus hard on court challenges and 2022, and ignore the sniveling hand-wringers who would quietly surrender to the Potato Behind The Curtain because they can't imagine what they would do about it. This ain't over yet.

Merrick Garland’s problems with his son-in-law just got worse

https://www.americanthinker.co..._just_got_worse.html

Over the last few months, as COVID brought classrooms into American homes, parents learned that their children are being taught Critical Race Theory (i.e., Whites are evil; Blacks are pathetic) and magical thinking about gender, as well as being forced to wear masks that don’t protect against disease, but do interfere with children’s health, learning, and socialization. Their vigorous complaints saw the National School Board Association suggest they’re “domestic terrorists” and Merrick Garland answer the call. We learned, too, that Merrick Garland’s son-in-law, through his company, Panorama Education, sells CRT materials to public schools. And yesterday, it turned out that Panorama is also spreading material calling Trump and his supporters “white supremacists.”

Alexander “Xan” Tanner, a very White man, is married to Merrick Garland’s daughter. Tanner co-founded Panorama Education, which purports to provide a data platform that delves into students’ psychosocial issues in order to help schools intervene in problems and improve the school climate. In a word, it’s creepy. The company, of course, insists that it’s all about diversity:

We believe Panorama is strongest when our team reflects the tremendous diversity of the students, families, and educators we serve. We aim for Panorama to be a place where team members from a wide range of identities and experiences are valued, included, and able to thrive. In our partnership with clients, we work to increase equitable access to education, especially for students from communities that have been historically underserved by America’s schools.

Yeah, right.... Go to the linked webpage and look at the employee picture. It’s a sea of White faces with a small number of racial minorities among them. All these people, obviously, have used their White privilege to deprive BIPOCS of career opportunities and, according to their own values, should be ashamed of themselves. Still, these privileged White employees feel competent to assure school districts that they’ll help fix racial inequities on campus.

The company is doing more than pushing the racist obsessions of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. It also tells public school districts across America the vile lie that Trump and his supporters are “white supremacists”:

An education company co-founded by Attorney General Merrick Garland’s son-in-law issued a “resource” for teachers this year that claims supporters of former President Donald Trump are White supremacists.

The educational workshop released by Panorama Education, co-founded by Alexander “Xan” Tanner, the group’s president, revolves around “systemic racism” and includes an article as a resource that states the Ku Klux Klan and attendees of Trump’s rallies are both “examples of white supremacy.”

The 2021 workshop in question from the group, titled “SEL as Social Justice: Dismantling White Supremacy Within Systems and Self,” includes a portion of “resources” for teachers, one of which links to a Medium article titled “How White Supremacy Lives in Our Schools, written by Altagracia Montilla, a self-described “freedom-dreamer, facilitator, and strategist committed to dismantling oppressive systems.”

In the article, Montilla wrote, “The rise in images of overt white supremacy in the media feeds into the confusion about white supremacy. While the Ku Klux Klan and MAGAs at half-empty Trump rallies (not that these are mutually exclusive groups) are in fact examples of white supremacy, they are not the only examples.”

The article also said “murderous police officers” were examples of White supremacy and claimed White supremacy “is everywhere, pertinent and pervasive, woven into the fabric of our society and reflected in every institution and organization in the U.S. including schools.”

“One of the purposes of listing characteristics of white supremacy culture in schools is to point out how schools consciously or unconsciously use these characteristics as their standards making it difficult, if not impossible, to open the door to other cultural norms and standards,” Montilla claimed, listing “Perfectionism,” “Worship of the Written Word,” “Paternalism,” “Defensiveness,” and “Right to Comfort” as “school practices that act as antidotes to white supremacy culture in schools.”

Montilla went even further in the piece, claiming that schools only “celebrate students who adapt or conform” to ideals that are rooted in White supremacy.

“The reality is while schools may say they’re invested in diversity and equity, they really only celebrate students who adapt or conform to the cultural norms rooted in white supremacy,” the Panorama Education approved resource stated. “Naming and identifying the characteristics of white supremacy culture in schools so we shift from accepting these characteristics as norms towards recognizing them as destructive — is the first step to working toward building schools that value all students.”

Merrick Garland shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near questions about what’s happening in America’s public schools. His conflict of interest is overwhelming, given that his daughter’s financial well-being is dependent on peddling the same racist material America’s parents, both Black and White, rightly find deeply offensive. Add in the racist partisan attacks and Garland can only be seen as further politicizing an office that exists to serve all Americans, not just Democrats.

Loudoun County, Virginia father who was dragged out of woke school board meeting and arrested was trying to tell other parents his daughter was raped by a boy 'in a skirt' in the girls' bathroom and that staff ignored it.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/ne...-girls-bathroom.html

A Virginia father who went viral after being dragged out of a Loudoun County school board meeting and arrested for protesting its proposed transgender policies has now revealed he was trying to tell the room that his daughter had been raped by a boy 'in a skirt' in the girls' bathroom.

Scott Smith was photographed on June 22 being dragged out of the heated meeting with his torso exposed in Leesburg, Virginia. The 48-year-old plumber was ridiculed on social media afterwards and was painted by the left to be a deranged, right-wing bigot.

But in an interview with The Daily Wire that was published on Monday, he explains that he was trying to stick up for his daughter, who he says was attacked at Stone Bridge High School on May 28 by a boy 'in a skirt' who took advantage of the trans policies to get into the girls' bathrooms and assault her.

He said he exploded with rage at the meeting after hearing the school's ultra-liberal staff claim they had never received a report of a sexual assault by a transgender child in the bathrooms or changing rooms when he says that's exactly what he reported to them on May 28.

Now, Smith says the school board went out of its way to protect the child - 'a sexual predator' - but demonize him because he opposed its liberal policies.

'It has been so hard to keep my mouth shut and wait this out. It has been the most powerless thing I’ve ever been through,' he said.

'My wife and I are gay- and lesbian-friendly.

'We're not into this children transgender stuff. The person that attacked our daughter is apparently bisexual and occasionally wears dresses because he likes them.

'So this kid is technically not what the school board was fighting about.

'The point is kids are using it as an advantage to get into the bathrooms,' he said.

On the day of the incident, Smith says the school told him to come to the campus because his daughter had been physically assaulted. They did not say she had been sexually assaulted.

Once he got there, he says school staff told him they would handle it internally, choosing not to call the police for an as-yet unexplained reason.

He was enraged by the decision and challenged them on it. The school board then did call the police but to report Smith, not the boy, for making a scene.

'I went nuts. I called the principal a p****. Six cop cars showed up like a f****** SWAT team,' he said.

The school's principal sent out an alert that day warning parents of what had happened involving Smith, but it said nothing of the sexual assault allegations in the bathroom.

It's unclear exactly what happened next but Smith ended up at the hospital with his daughter.

There, they told doctors what happened and a rape kit was performed.

'Thank God that I drew enough attention to it, without getting arrested, that we got an escort to the hospital and they administered a rape kit that night,' he said.

The rape kit verified his daughter's claim so they took it to the police and a case was opened.

The teenager was arrested two months later - after the school board meeting - after an investigation by the sheriff's office.

'We did respond. At the time, the juvenile was 14-years-old. He was charged with forcible sodomy. After that, it goes through the courts.

'The May 28, 2021, case at Stone Bridge High School involved a different set of circumstances and a thorough 2-month-long investigation was conducted to determine the facts of the case prior to arrest.

'This case is still pending court proceedings,' a spokesman for the sheriff's office told DailyMail.com on Tuesday.



The boy was charged with sodomy for the alleged assault on Smith's daughter in May, but the sheriff's department did not release details of it at the time. The same boy was charged on October 7 with assaulting a different girl in a different school. A sheriff's spokesman confirmed to DailyMail.com that it was the same boy, but they could not reveal his identity

In the weeks and months that followed, Lancaster and the juvenile boy's attorneys' were working out a plea deal but it's unclear if the school board ever took action against him.

According to Lancaster, the boy confessed to what happened in police interviews.

Lancaster, who is a partner at the Leesburg firm Whitbeck Bennett, says she accompanied Smith's daughter to interviews with prosecutors.

At the meeting on June 22, Loudoun County School Superintendent Scott Ziegler said the school had never had any form of incident inside a bathroom or locker room involving a transgender child.

'To my knowledge, we don’t have any record of assaults occurring in our restrooms,' he said first.

He went on to quote Time magazine research that he said disproved the notion transgender kids might sexually attack cisgender kids, and said: 'I think it’s important to keep our perspective on this, we’ve heard it several times tonight from our public speakers but the predator transgender student or person simply does not exist.'

Smith said he became irate. He started arguing with another woman at the meeting, labeling her a 'b***h' after she allegedly denied his daughter's claim.

He was then charged with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest.

Garland and the DOJ admit that they did no research into whether there has been any increase in violence or threats to school boards before he directed the FBI to begin targeting parents who speak at school board meetings. He simply read the letter from the partisan NSBA and took their word for it.

Incredible. Banana republic level stuff - this clown was a hair's breadth away from being a lifetime Supreme Court justice.

I recall thinking at the time Zero nominated him "Well, we could do worse." Looks like I was wrong on that count

When Mitch McConnell dies and approaches the gates of heaven, the gates will not only open, but bells will ring, angels will sing, God himself will stand there and welcome Mitch with open arms...and all because of that one act of denying Garland a seat on the Supreme Court.

I wonder how much encouragement Garlands son in law offered him to target parents resisting the indoctrination of their children? Regards 18DAI

He was never going to get the votes in the GOP-dominated Senate, anyway. That was ostensibly one of the reasons McConnell refused to entertain the nomination: It would have been a waste of the Senate's time.
