Kaitlin Collins still thinks she can trigger the press secretary into losing her temper and saying something clicky and sound-bitey. She wishes so bad she still had the former administration to try to trip up.
Oh, Lord, yes, the seg academies: the Glorious South's response to Brown v Board. I know all about that.
The assault on public education more generally dates to the 1980s, though, through the attack on teachers' unions, and the introduction of focus-grouped wedge issues like Intelligent Design, presented in Luntzean mantras as a mere "alternative viewpoint."
This more recent devolution, the Koch-funded attacks on school boards here and now in 2021, the Critical Race Theory stuff, the rush to ram through Heritage Foundation-written laws banning the teaching of all but a glorified, whitened, brightened, Limbaughized version of US history---this is new as a national movement. This is post-Trump, this is happening under cover of the Big Lie, simultaneous with the massive eruption of voter suppression laws: this is dangerous damn stuff
We're not competing for who was the first one to notice how shitty it all is: I'm merely reacting to the speed with which the fascist movement is consolidating its gains, and its ideology, in the public schools. They clearly had a hell of lot in the pipeline, just waiting for the smoke and noise and distraction of the Big Lie.
It's a 3-day delay. It's not like it's going to make a huge difference. They can deal with the delay, or they can spend a month debating whether to change the House rules to remove the requirement for the delay, or they can just wait 3 damn days and move forward.
Sadly, they apparently are meeting next Tuesday to draft the papers, at least according to the statement. Who knows, maybe if he has the weekend to think about it, he might change his mind. HAHAHAHA.
Or vomit on and digest the arresting officer, a la The Fly

While I know this phrase is a cliché, I'm gonna plow ahead anyway: I am shocked but not surprised.
I never realized they gave it some swing. Huh!
this is wonderful!
Has Peter Douchey been put into permanent time-out?
This is also a Ted Cruz move, but in his case he vomits through his eyes.
Beautiful boy!
What the fuck kind of "opposing perspective" to the Holocaust even is there? Are we instructing students that actual genocide is okay now?
Gee, does that sound like anything from recent experience? Huh ...
I'd look for my shocked face but I'm in my mother's hoarder house and I didn't pack it, not like you can find a goddamn thing in here anyway
(Well, you can now, because I've been busting my ass around here for four days)
