     Many American parents are outraged after U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland ordered the FBI and U.S. attorneys to help local authorities fight what he called, "a disturbing trend" of harassment, intimidation, and threats against school board members. 

    Garland deployed the FBI after the National School Boards Association demanded President Biden take action against parents who have spoken up in contentious school board meetings across the country.

    The association says the threats are comparable to "domestic terrorism" as angry parents protest issues like critical race theory, pandemic restrictions, and transgender activism. The group sent a letter telling Biden that protests made by parents and other concerned citizens should be classified as "hate crimes" and urged him to use the USA Patriot Act against the protesters. 

    Conservative critics and parents immediately lashed out at Garland's order, calling it an attempt by the Biden administration to prevent parents from being actively involved in their children's education.

    "President Biden's latest decision is part of a disturbing trend in the Democrat Party to silence parents," House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) tweeted Tuesday. "We should encourage family participation in our schools, not baselessly attack opposing views because leftist groups want control over curriculums."

     Biden's America.........concerned parents are now terrorists. an_light

    Don't forget Yellen wants banks to monitor and report every bank transaction over $600 while they constantly let the rich dodge taxes and hide money off shore and steal from regular citizens who work. Remember when the Pandora papers dropped and we had to get the fakebook hearing front and center? Gee, wonder why? Trying to hide the real story.

    But it's okkkyyyyy the 1 trillion dollar coin is going to save the economy! Let's just mint 450 while we're at it! That'll show the world we're at the top.

    National school board association asks for federal help because of widespread violence and threats at school board meetings across the US. Angry mobs have interrupted school board meetings, leading to some arrests.  Governments can assist local police in investigations.  Sadly, schools have become political battlegrounds over issues such as mask mandates, treatment of transgender students and how to teach US history of racism.  However critical race theory isn't even taught in K-12 schools. NSBA isn't trying to stop free speech or protests.   Illegal to harass public servants just doing their jobs to ensure proper education of students in a safe environment.

    Critical race theory is definitely being taught in K-12 schools throughout the country. 

    There are plenty of examples that prove collective guilt is being taught to young students. In Cupertino, California, an elementary school required third graders to rank themselves according to the “power and privilege” associated with their ethnicities. Schools in Buffalo, New York, taught students that “all white people” perpetuate “systemic racism” and had kindergarteners watch a video of dead black children, warning them about “racist police and state-sanctioned violence.” And in Arizona, the state’s education department sent out an “equity toolkit” to schools that claimed infants as young as 3 months old can start to show signs of racism and “remain strongly biased in favor of whiteness” by age 5.

    The purpose of CRT has always been the same: to teach people that America is an irreparably racist nation built on racist institutions upheld by racist people. It is a sinister and toxic ideology, and it is being taught to children in the schools that we, the taxpayers, fund. Don’t let the Left fool you into thinking differently.

Far right extremists attempt to suppress truth, limit teaching and stroke unreasonable fear in education.

    If Democrats are against teaching CRT in grades K-12, then why are they against banning CRT from being taught in grades K-12?

    This is when people like Midnight will bury their heads in the sand, bow out of the discussion, and pretend like it never happened. 

    The ostrich effect can be a serious drawback to tackling societal problems. Because it’s so overwhelming to contemplate the severity and complexity of these issues, it’s often easier for Democrats to just ignore them entirely, and to reject information that contradicts their official stance.

    Bullshit. And America knows it!!!!
