I wish I didn’t have to harp on this as often as I do, but I’ll continue to do so because my hope is that it leads to change on some small scale.
It’s essentially become my motto: if you have children in public school…pull them out before it’s too late.

The nation’s two leading Leftmedia papers of record, The Washington Post and The New York Times, have finally, after months of relative silence, decided that the recent beating Critical Race Theory has been receiving from concerned parents and conservative media like ours warranted a defense. In that vein, the Post and Times published articles that are intended to both deceive and downplay the imminent threat posed by CRT. Continue reading
Question my sanity, but I’m considering running in this election to recall California’s Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom. Here’s a big reason why.
No one doubts that bad K-12 public school teachers exist. There is a phenomenon known as the “turkey trot,” in which bad teachers wind up in the worst schools. Why?
There is a connection between bad schools and lack of parental involvement. When you have strong parental involvement, parents pressure their schools to remove such teachers. Because of strong, protective teachers unions, these teachers are rarely fired, merely shuffled from school to school, until they land in one where few parents complain. (Continue to full story…)
“We oppose attempts to ban critical race theory and/or The 1619 Project,” the National Education Association (NEA) said in a resolution late last week. At its 2021 annual meeting, America’s largest teachers’ union — and largest union of any kind — passed a slew of pro-CRT resolutions. They also approved “an already-created, in-depth study that critiques white supremacy, anti-Blackness, anti-Indigeneity, racism, patriarchy … capitalism … and other forms of power and oppression.” The resolutions amounted to a declaration of war on parent organizations that have sprouted up as sentinels against encroaching wokeness. The victor will determine the path of education for America’s children and — by extension — our country’s future. Finally, the battle lines are drawn clearly.
Ever since parents began sounding the alarm about critical race theory, the woke Left has denied that schools were teaching CRT. “Critical race theory is not taught before law school,” said MSNBC guest host Alicia Menendez. Continue reading
This Independence Day, a poll from Issues & Insights revealed that only 36% of adults aged 18-24 said they were “proud to be American,” compared with 86% of those over the age of 65. This shouldn’t be surprising. America’s children have been raised in a system dedicated to the proposition that America itself is evil, a repository of discrimination and bigotry, a country founded in sin and steeped in cruelty. Continue reading
A school board meeting in Virginia was abruptly ended just minutes into a public comment portion on Tuesday after board members faced heat over left-wing school policies like Critical Race Theory indoctrination and the “transgender” thought police. Loudoun County Public School (LCPS) Board Chairwoman Brenda Sheridan had warned the crowd of parents against interruptions and soon called for adjournment following cheering and applause for one speaker. That speaker just happened to be former Virginia state Senator Dick Black, who excoriated the board over the blatant push of leftist indoctrination in schools. Continue reading
Quite possibly one the greatest threats that our nation is facing right now is racism.
This used to not be the case until liberals and the mainstream media started pushing this crap once again before the elections just like they always do in order to pick up votes. One of the ways that racism is being spread though among the younger population is through the teaching of Ȼritical RaȻe The0ry. It may seem like it’s not, but the ideas that are a part of this ideology as well as the potential impact it will have on our children and the future of this country is catastrophically harmful. Continue reading

I can’t believe it but I have to admit it. When I first saw this report I was mildly shocked. As we well know, given the level of depravity and steadily-declining immoral conduct on regular display by the Democrat Party and its various supported groups and causes, being shocked by the left is steadily becoming more and more unlikely. We’ve all said it, a proverbial million times: “Nothing these people do shocks me, anymore.” Continue reading

My most recent article on the Unitarians and socialists controlling public schools drew so much negative response in certain quarters that I felt like I struck a raw nerve. That convinced me that I had done something right. When the leftists respond with vehemence to something you wrote or said you can tell you hit a nerve.
The public school system is one of those sacred cows you are never supposed to touch. The leftists always respond in defense of public schools when patriotic Americans point out egregious things that system does. I can imagine, somewhere down the road, some erstwhile leftist in Congress will introduce a bill to make criticism of public education a “hate crime” committed by “domestic terrorists” and then all the commentators on CNN will spend every night for a week pointing out the holiness of public education versus the “evil” of those who dare to question what it is doing to, not for, our kids.

The recent June 21st issue of The New American magazine is a special report on education in America. The people that publish The New American realize that the major problem we have with education in this country is the public school system. An informative article by Alex Newman in this issue is entitled Government Schools vs. Christianity. Among other things Alex Newman noted: Despite the myth of religious ‘neutrality’ and ‘secular’ schooling perpetrated by the government school establishment and its apologists, all education is fundamentally religious in nature. That is just as true in government schools across the United States as it is in Islamic madrassas of Pakistan. The only question is what what religion and what worldview is being taught.” This is a cogent truth that most people, Christians included, never seem to grasp. Continue reading
In May, South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem became the first candidate nationwide to promise to combat action civics and the un-American ideology of critical race theory by signing the 1776 Pledge to Save Our Schools, a pledge drafted by a new patriotic education nonprofit.
“Teaching our children & grandchildren to hate their own country & pitting them against one another on the basis of race or sex is shameful & must be stopped. I’m proud to be the 1st candidate in America to sign ‘The 1776 Pledge to Save Our Schools,’” Noem wrote. Continue reading
Florida’s Republican Governor Ron DeSantis has signed a bill that would require at least one minute of silence, and possibly more, in public schools at the beginning of every day, so children can pray or meditate.
DeSantis signed HB 529 known as the “Moment of Silence in Public Schools” bill into law on Monday. Under the law, public-school principals will be required to direct first-period teachers to institute moments of silence. Continue reading
Passionate patriots of the day like parent Xi Van Fleet, Fairfax County Virginia school teacher Lilit Vanetsyan, and so many others will someday go down in history as the heroines who came along when they were most needed to rescue all school children from the chokehold of political indoctrination in the classroom. Continue reading
A recent report from the Heritage Foundation has found that a majority of teachers familiar with Critical Race Theory support it, while at the same time a majority of parents are unfamiliar with this ideology. However, of those parents who are familiar with CRT, the majority are either undecided or reject it. Continue reading
The liberals in positions of authority in the education system have proposed senseless, racist, Marxist, and really, just pure propaganda in the name of “diversity”.
For some reason, they feel that their radical ideology should be forced upon children in order to foster “inclusion”. So at what point do these radical ideas cross the line and violate the same rules they claim to uphold? Continue reading
I find it rather ironic that one of the world’s richest men, who got rich by making computer software developed using advance algorithms is trying to indoctrinate children against capitalism and against advanced math. All this is supposed to be about racial equity – it is insulting to racial minorities for schools to lower standards so that minorities won’t fall behind. That is assuming that: 1. There are no smart minority children and that 2. that minority children want to remain uneducated and poor. That is racism in its most repugnant guise -supposed help that is actually designed to cripple those it is supposed to help. All done to further the agenda of a very few crazy fanatical white folks who in truth feel very superior to said minorities and are virtue signaling to try to defend their own self-righteous B.S. ~ Mary
Across the United States, public schools seem to be in a race to see who can destroy their student’s futures the fastest. In the name of “racial equity,” many school districts are now pushing the idea of de-tracking their advanced math curriculum to keep all students at the same level from grades K through 10. The programs silently at work behind the scenes declare their goal is to “challenge the ways that math is used to uphold capitalist, imperialist, and racist views.” Continue reading
An Illinois school district is under fire after they confiscated a little girl’s Bible while she was reading during recess, the American Center for Law and Justice alleges.
“How could this still be happening in America,” the ACLJ asked in a statement. Continue reading
Paul Rossi, Teacher
A private Manhattan high school that charges $57,000 annual tuition has been blasted by one of its own teachers for indoctrinating students with ‘anti-racism’ ideology that ‘induces shame’ in white students for being ‘oppressors’.
Paul Rossi, a math teacher at the school, says that he went public with his complaints against his employer, Grace Church High School in the East Village of New York City, even though he is aware it might cost him his job. Rossi published his blog on former New York Times Opinion writer Bari Weiss’s Substack newsletter.
But a spokesperson for the school, whose famous graduates include X-Files actor David Duchovny and New York Times columnist David Brooks, told DailyMail.com that Rossi will not be fired or disciplined in any way for going public with his criticisms. Continue reading
I have written about Critical Race Theory before, and I probably will again. It is such a pernicious world view that it deserves all the negative publicity possible. At this point, several state legislatures around the country have bills in their legislatures to ban the teaching of this theory in their public schools and, while I have no use for the public school system, I do applaud these efforts. At least some in these state legislatures recognize what a horrendous insult to real education this leftist drivel really is.
However, for some reason, that does not hold true in the state of Washington. According to Washington Mandates Critical Race Theory (WARNING – potential security Risk) this leftist plague will be visited on all public school students in that state. According to this article: “The race-obsessed framework isn’t relegated to schools in Seattle, where you’d expect a victim-centered ideology like critical race theory to flourish. Thanks to the state’s Democrat-controlled legislature, a trio of bills just signed into law mandates critical race theory training for all public school teachers. Another even requires training for medical students, teaching them it’s as essential to be social justice activists as it is to treat patients. While critical race theory mandates go into effect in the 2022-2023 school year, many districts are already jumping on board.” Two mentioned are the Issaquah School District and the one in Bellingham.

In March of 2021 writer Christopher F. Rufo did an article for Hillsdale Colleges’ publication Imprimis in which he dealt with Critical Race Theory and its origins. I can’t deal with it all here. It is long and informative and you may be able to find it on the internet – if it hasn’t been censored off by now. For my purposes here I will give you a brief quote. Mr. Rufo noted that: “Critical race theory is an academic discipline, formulated in the 1990s, built on the intellectual framework of identity-based Marxism… Continue reading
