It will take action, solid and unrelenting confrontational action, at the local level – to include ousting the leftist propagandists, before this insufferable control will end. Kudos to the parents who refused to back-down; now they need to remove these pontificating board members. “Whatever It Takes!”
These people have no idea who they work for. In their elitist mindset they are operating above the citizens of their district. This type of leftist outlook must be removed from every school board in every district everywhere. It will take engagement by every patriotic parent, but it needs to happen with a sense of urgency.
.
Citizen video below that shows what came next…
The district released a statement from Superintendent Dr. Scott A. Menzel:
ARIZONA – The Scottsdale Unified School District Governing Board and I are disappointed that this evening’s regularly scheduled meeting had to be recessed because of non-compliance with district policy that visitors wear face masks at all times while on all district property. After 1) explaining the policy to the audience, which is the district’s authority to establish, 2) asking that attendees put on masks in order for the meeting to begin and 3) setting up an overflow room where those who did not wish to comply could watch the meeting virtually, the Board voted to recess the meeting until a future time.
We understand that there are differing opinions on the need to wear masks to prevent the spread of COVID-19. We fall on the side of doing what is within our authority to do in order to protect the safety and well-being of our students and staff. The district’s decision to maintain the mask policy through the end of the school year (May 27) was previously announced, as has the plan to make masks optional next fall. Most of our students are either not eligible or have not been vaccinated, and by following a careful mitigation strategy devised in concert with local, state and federal health agency guidelines and recommendations, we have been successful in preventing our schools from becoming COVID breeding grounds. As a result, we have been able to offer in-person learning opportunities to those students wanting and needing it since last fall. (read more)

I guess parents extent of involvement is electing these donkeys. Then parents rights end.
Sadly it’s just NOT the parents. It’s anyone in the community – if they live there they can vote!
Perhaps a more just system would be to allow ONLY those who fund the system through property taxes to have a vote. That’s what “skin in the game” really means.
On a related note: We own a rural property in Mohave County AZ and I recently noticed that over 60% of our property tax bill goes to A SINGLE SCHOOL DISTRICT ON AN INDIAN RESERVATION!
I am ashamed to say that i didn’t vote for anyone on the School Board, on the theory that I had no children in the school district and I would leave that to the parents of children who knew more.
Now I know more.
I wonder if a lot of people regularly do what I did and will no more. They have awakened a sleeping giant.
it absolutely is happening across the country … its sad we let them do this, but we can still make a change. although, I had some teens doing some work for me today and they were telling me about a class they have to take each week to discuss their emotions – but its really just the teacher banging on about BLM and how awful all the white kids are. these are white kids. and they see thru this BS.
My son was one of only a handful of white students in a college class when the teacher kept ranting about white privilege. It was very uncomfortable for him to say the least.
One of the Hispanic kids finally erupted when the teacher went on to disparage christianity. The student said something to the effect that brown people are Christians, too.
It’s disgusting that these bully pulpit “teachers” are ever allowed in a classroom.
Time to do more than be impolite.
I was just reflected to our school board which is great. But the sad part is that only 39 people in a small community of 335 homes chose to vote in the school board election. I received 35 of the 39 votes. This is a small example of what is going on all around the Country. The recent School Board election in 5 districts had the smallest turnout in history for this area of LI NY. People obviously don’t care about what is going on in there schools and what is being taught to the children.
And yet LIers pay some of the highest taxes in the nation. Unbelievable. Congratulations on your reelection, @ Eastender.
My grandkids will start this august school in Scottsdale here. We have been voting for school boards in the past but since we were not “involved” we only asked around here or there.
We now know.
Another unveiling.
Same with the judges which is an elaborate job to find out who these judges are.
Last “election” we did not vote for judges as we wanted them all out.
In fairness, they have to pay school taxes whether they have students in schools or not.
Well, if they’re taxpayers, they have that right.
Want to fix it? HOMESCHOOL!!!! Fixes brains, families, and morals!!!!!
If you search for Upper Arlington Ohio School Board Masks Restrooms, there is another good video there of parents stepping up at a meeting earlier in May. One of the parents, a woman, brought receipts! She had the school board president dead to rights in lie after lie, as well as violations of open meeting laws in an effort to shoehorn all gender neutral bathrooms in a new school building. Very impressive.
The people have the power if they’d just realize it.
Bingo. Take your kids OUT!
You got it! And get our people in….no reason for us to hand them the schools (meaning our kids) on a silver platter…..we need to be in the education business, as part of protecting and preserving our traditions and heritage
Exactly! This is NOT just a mask tyranny issue. I wish people would understand that the people that behave and think this this way are also CHOSING THE curriculum and the curriculum is BAD. However bad you think it is, it IS WORSE. The kids are being dumbed down and indoctrinated. It is pathetic. All of these schools are teaching COMMON CORE GARBAGE. Look for a classical ed school in your area. Save your kids.
It’s still a problem if the majority of OTHER, non- vigilant parents are allowing their kids to be brainwashed, and setting your kids up to be persecuted in the future. Therefore, the entire curricula has to be changed.
We need to support those brave parents who will step forward to be the tip of the spear, in whatever way we can.
And still make sure they don’t teach Marxism. Even private schools are teaching communism to students.
Before this year I would have said the same. My grandkids have been in private catholic schools ever. But their situation changed financially.
So they will be in a public charter school and we will be involved.
The religious and private schools are
1. Full
2. Very expensive
My two kids were ‘lifers’ (K-12) in private school. Basically, these schools follow the public school curriculum. At the least, parents are allowed a voice.
And they have to do more than be impolite. Run them out on a rail.
If those people think they’re mad about masks, wait until they find out that their kids are being taught racist, anti-American, Critical Race Theory…
Exactly, time to start a parallel education structure.
I remember years ago when Bill Whittle recommend creating parallel structures of a lot of things to starve out the dysfunctional leftie versions…
please share. i am extremely interested in learning this.
lots of info on Bill Whittle’s parallel structures, WB:
https://duckduckgo.com/?q=bill+whittle+parallel+structures&atb=v273-1ud&ia=web
looking at it now. ty
The UNION and every School District survives on head count. Take the heads away … you take their $$ away. Take their $$ away … you take their power away. Pull your kids NOW!
Yep, the principal at the school (I quit, not gonna teach or follow CRT) is absolutely FREAKED OUT by the 20% decline in enrollment.
That’s power bleeding out. And 20% fewer indoctrinated students.
Oh, I remember one public school district that was absolutely gutted by the Hasidic Jew community. Their children all went to Yeshiva, so they weren’t about to throw around their tax money without a say as to how it’s spent.
Every school budget was defeated for several years. The PTA moms were absolutely apoplectic.
I was so proud of those taxpayers! Anything is possible when people put their minds to a cause.
#StarveThatBeast ??
This tactic actually works. It was done by the Nazis who set up parallel police and other services that resulted in public support. The mafia also did this, also the cartels. These are all negative examples but the tactic is not inherently bad. Alternatives can promote competition and show what the people want. Monopoly is wholly unnecessary except for tyrants.
See my comment above about hippies doing this and yes it worked but ultimately coopted..ie, health food stores became Whole Foods, etc.
Must work on relieving parents of non-attending students of the tax burden.
I always tell these gov’t dullards that we taxpayers are BUYING A SERVICE OR PRODUCT, and we expect value for our money.
And if we are “investing”, as they always tell us, then I expect a return on my investment (ROI), BACK TO ME, that is MORE than what I invested.
And the current educational product, and the ROI, SUCKS! No more.
That’s what the hippies did in the 60’s and 70’s with counter culture; started their own schools, stores, etc…it can be done
Thanks to the ChiComms’ bioweapon closing down the schools, the field is plowed and the seeds are planted.
I recently left public education (taught physics) after our new, racist, principle would say this phrase over and over again, “Is this an opportunity to talk about equity?” That’s Critical Race Theory. Did you know, for example, that homework (especially if you grade it) is racist? How about math grades?
He started off the 20-21 school year last summer with a half-day 1619 Project series of videos using George Floyd “understanding” as the pretexts for showing them. To this day I regret not recording the meeting and posting links to it on the District’s social media pages. The district is still about 75% white, and I can pretty much guarantee that the parents would hit the roof if they knew the principal was pushing his racist agenda on teachers (and by extension, students).
One of the guys I work with at my new job was asking me what the heck is going on in the district (his kids are in elem./middle school). I just looked at him and said, “If you’re asking me that, you already know you need to get your kids outta that school district. Find a great Charterf, put them in Parochial School, but get them out of the true public school and school them yourself if you have to.”
USA citizens will have to start going to Mexico or somewhere else for medical care.
The AMA announced that it is going to reform the AMA, doctors, medical schools to get rid of systemic racism and start teaching equity, critical race theory, get rid of meritocracy, etc.
So, when we need surgery and a “doctor” who was awarded a medical degree just on ethnicity and not on grades, performance, etc….. people will die.
Same with engineers, math, etc. Every field of study.
These Communist scum are blatantly and purposely destroying everything. Pushing the West back to the Dark Ages.
Maybe you jest,
However.
We were in Cabo 18 months ago.
Sure we are relatively well off Canadians, and as such enjoy many benefits. Benefits we don’t take for granted.
That said, we had heard of international travel for non Mexicans to use their medical system.
Well we checked a few things out when we we were there. An American style hospital in San Jose Del Pedro was incredible.
We visited a dental office to enquirer as to accessibility and cost. ( a friend we know had flown to Texas somewhere and crossed into Mexico near the borde, and had an incredible amount of dental work done for $3000.00, Canadian estimate nearly $10,000.00
They had a two week vacation, great dental work and still saved a few thousand.
As the Canadian system believe it or not is very good for the “ Big Stuff” ( we have two family members suffering from blood cancers at present, one just started treatment a month ago, the other still alive a fighting 2 1/2 years later.
The U.S. system may not have been affordable to them.)
That said less serious stuff is pitiful. For years Canadians went to the States, for elective surgeries.
Well Mexico is now a recommended destination for those that cannot afford or access the U.S.
Of course regular Mexican citizens access to such high end facilities does not exist.
That is another discussion.
Socialism truly does suck!
It drains the lifeblood out of everything.
God bless PDJT
Teeth cleaned and a tooth extracted in one visit to a dental office in Mexico: $50
Wow!
Amazing really. Insurance companies and government entanglements quadruple the price of everything.
I fell in Mexico last year, and broke my wrist in 3 places. Met an osteopathic surgeon who got me in a nice hospital the next day, put 2 plates in my wrist, excellent anesthesia (neural block), 1 day in the hospital, aftercare, high quality everything….$5000 US out of pocket.
Mao’s cultural revolution all over again. Please heed Mao’s own words …
“Revolution is not a dinner party”
Pretty funny, those of us with the means have been leaving the country for medical for years now. I go to Costa Rica, although I have a primary care physician here as backup in case I need support fast. I pay cash for some of the best care in the world down there.
Less than 30% of Doctors belong to the AMA.
Even lefty Docs know they are a joke.
WTS: What % of doctors are lefties?
I’m guessing that if you knew what percentage of doctors were under 45 years old, you would have a pretty good answer to your question.
Most
I pulled my kids out in 1991 when our neighborhood school started teaching in Spanish only.
I went to the school and raised a big loud fuss before I left. Told em my kids can’t read the BS that they brought home as homework.
Waukegan Illinois is a turd world dump.
If you check out The Thrivetime Show with Clay Clark on Rumble, he has lists of doctors that will treat you according to what you need. He is supporting America’s Frontline Doctors. This is OUR country, and I’m bloody well not going out of the country for anything. The bozo’s who think they know better than we do about our own health and well being can take a hike.
The only way to go about rescuing the doctor- patient relationship is to cut out the greedy insurance industry and pay cash instead. Many others do this, as well.
Suddenly, I was able to obtain HCQ and Ivermectin prophylaxis for this Covid-19 plandemic. Just like that, too (snaps fingers).
So many others ran out for those experimental shots, because they were denied the proper treatments.
Airline pilots too. They have to be blacks even if they can’t fly a plane.
That happened 50 years ago with the San Francisco fire dept. Got so bad that the longtime guys took early retirement because they wouldn’t follow ignorant, arrogant stupid AA blacks into a dangerous fire.
As we’ve continued to learn more about the COVID19 hoax, the more it appears to me that there is no actual COVID-19. And if there is a COVID-19 then it’s almost completely useless in terms of its biological function.
Remember, the cases of the flu during the COVID period have been effectively zero. That alone should make people wonder.
But as we have looked at how the issue was forced into the spotlight, this “disease” is more media driven than ANYTHING else. The media pushes the narrative, the politicians (and even Trump) had to follow it through to some sort of conclusion. Trump, of course, took a page out of the Democrats’ playbook….
What do I mean?
Before the Democrats were in favor of civil rights for black people, they were steadfastly against it. But when they saw they were on the losing side, they reversed course and decided to exaggerate their support for civil rights for black people by granting them special treatment and especially by rigging the system so that they are on welfare and using the welfare system to destroy black families.
And in Trump’s case, he was prepared to stand against the COVID-19 nonsense and then reversed course and made claims (which they DARE not deny!) that he saved millions of lives! So when he found he wouldn’t be able to control against they mass hysteria drummed up by the media, he took control over the hysteria and went WELL beyond what anyone would expect — he managed to get vaccine research fast-tracked among other things.
Like the Democrats, Trump exceeded the game created by the media and the political establishment bent on removing him from office. And he did an amazing job at it.
The disease which matches the horrifying death numbers and symptoms does not exist. The “test” (The PCR test) isn’t a medical diagnostic tool. It’s a tool for finding traces of viruses and bacteria. And it runs in redundant cycles. So “obvious” contamination appears within the first cycles but less obvious traces may appear after more cycles of testing. The problem with extra cycles is that false positives become the rule rather than the exception. So by requiring testing to run X cycles, they control the outcome by controlling the value of X. After Biden was sworn in, they lowered the value of X and then case numbers dropped significantly.
This whole thing was rigged. But it was DRIVEN absolutely by the media.
Knew that the corporates, media and otherwise — and bureaucrats, led by Faucci and others like him — were driving this, but thanks so much for the specifics.
My friend was interviewed to teach at a charter school. I thought it was a great idea until I read the school was run by Chan Zuckerberg. These globalists have co-opted even the parallel school systems. And I’m sure they’re knee deep all over DC, as well.
Last Election Day, there were no identifiers like “R” and “D” on the paid advertisements and one candidate ran on all party lines. The UNiparty is nothing if not thorough in it’s methodical deconstruction of all things western, including free elections.
They can’t persuade people, they will coerce them, must control all systems.
They simply can’t compete, so they force. They have NOTHING TO OFFER. NADA. ZIP. ZILCH.
I believe the Critical Race Theory is why the parents attended the school board meeting. The mask issue was a delaying tactic by the board.
Our school district took the same position. Masks for the last few weeks and then will be optional next year. The principle believes next year will be normal – school dance, parents and volunteers allowed in school to help. I don’t think anyone likes the masks. I unfortunately think these school boards are catering to the 10% of people, staff and public, that are scared of their shadow. Just like the Woke Corporations catering to the 10% or the 13% of the population who cram BLM propaganda and fear down their throats.
I agree it will take parents and the community to stand up and say enough. Another problem though is they fall back on the CDC “guidelines” for “safety”.
Whats funny is the state line is 10/15 minutes up the road from me, the school district in the other state only has “masks encouraged”. No outbreak there in the other state, despite 2 schools in our district (unfortunately they were in the poorer “black” area), just 20 minutes away from no masks, having quite a few “Covid” cases in the fall making our whole district go virtual for a few weeks due to quarantine issues, not people being sick issues. This happened with mask wearing. There is no science to it, just the CDC making crap up for political purposes.
What’s the best way to push back on the CDC guidelines? remember these people don’t care about facts – they don’t care if there is no cases, or no spreading, just covering there own a$% against the Karen’s of the world.
They are “educators”.
It is their job (if they are any good at it) to educate their employees about how things are working elsewhere in the country — say, Florida?
Or maybe the administrators live in such a bubble that they are not aware of what is happening elsewhere in the USA and elsewhere in the world.
Maybe we need to enlighten our public servants with the information that is out there, if they haven’t been incentivized to learn on their own
STRIKE. Pull your kids out of school — that will remove a lot of oppressive funding — and organize with others who do the same. School’s out for summer now; you have time to find alternative spaces (homes and churches?) and cooperative assistance. Your group doesn’t have to be huge and unwieldy. A dozen parents of good students, pulling out, will hit them where they will hurt (their wallets).
Homeschool laws by state:
“Learn all about withdrawing from public school, state requirements, testing, mandatory subjects, deadlines, and more….”

Here’s one option

Here’s another option, resources used by many Mennonites historically. It’s affordable and traditional.
You don’t have to be Mennonite
https://www.rodstaff.com/
“Rod and Staff Publishers
Books, Textbooks, and Curriculum
Welcome to the original online source for the full line of Rod and Staff curriculum — Biblical, conservative, thorough, well-established, dependable, proven”
My mother heavily used the Rod & Staff curriculum for my sister and I growing up. I can vouch for it. Their English books are especially excellent.
…for my sister and ME… English grammar didn’t take, apparently.
and most people don’t know why it’s “ME” rather than “I”….but I bet you do:)
If you really want to get technical, my sister and myself. Please pardon my vernacular.
Interesting, the Sikh community here in British Columbia is massive.
I know many, having worked with them, socialized with them and have one as a good friend.
Although Khalsa ( Sikh) schools are common. My friend and his family went to a traditional Mennonite school. In the largely Mennonite/ Sikh community.
It’s a big big world out there, and our VSG PDJT,
Has opened the eyes to so very many.
I view PDJT as a gift, a gift that keeps on giving.
Seton Home studies is another, with Catholic flavor. I highly recommend it, even if you are not Catholic.
You can just skip over the history bits that deal specifically with the Catholic Church, but the rest of it? Awesome.
First history text I ever read that had kind words to say about Cortez, who ended an industrial scale human sacrifice operation in central America.
Very anti-communist and unapologetically pro capitalist.
The non-Aztec population were begging Cortez to come in and take over!
It is time to do just that. Government runner schools is one of the 10 planks of communism.
Back when my kids were schoolage, I researched homeschooling using Mary Pride’s book. We ended up staying in school — my kids loved their schools and were very good students — but I was prepared to pull them out at any time if they were mistreated or administrators tried to bulldoze me as a parent.
Highly recommend Mary Pride’s “Big Book of Homeschooling” for a vast array of resources and reviews
https://www.home-school.com/catalog/pages/bigbook.php
If I may suggest, also consider the home schooling resources from Hillsdale College. Free. Online.
https://k12athome.hillsdale.edu/
If interested in Charter Schools, also see:
https://www.hillsdale.edu/educational-outreach/barney-charter-school-initiative-2/
As well, the Khan Academy has over 13,000 videos covering Arts/Humanities, computing, math, chemistry, reading and language arts, etc. Very good primary or supplemental resource.
https://www.khanacademy.org/
We used Mary Pride’s book to start educating ourselves on homeschooling resources. It was amazing to realize how much homeschooling material was available that we had never heard about. We would also highly recommend it.
I pulled my son out of the Scottsdale schools years ago due to their teaching on Columbus Day (this was 1995). I sent him to Catholic school and also used a home schooling curriculum from Calvert Academy (in Baltimore Maryland) for my son from 4-7 grades. The curriculum was wonderful. When he arrived at high school one of the teachers called me up and asked me what i had done because he was so well-prepared.
I just checked out their online and it looks very user-friendly. Get out now parents! i was working full time too. You can still do it, in the evening and especially if you are working from home. There are other ways to make up the socializing and need for other children.
Rainbow resource https://www.rainbowresource.com/
…like Christmas when catalog came in. We homeschooled all 4 K-12 at less than 2k per year on average. Having them close together was good in that we recycled a lot of curricula and some years just bought one grade of material and extra workbooks for last years materials.
They’ll simply cite an MSNBC report that Florida was a COVID dystopian nightmare death camp run by a Republican who hates children. When you try to argue them using data, they’ll scream at you and call you a denier.
Hokkoda, I’ve confronted many a teacher and administrator. Nicely, because that’s how I like to work… but my children were my reason for existence (not some burden that I was trying to pawn off on someone else)
They aren’t used to being confronted, was my experience.
My parents had allowed both of my brothers to stay in a second-grade classroom that was run by a sadist. For real, she would line up the children just about every day and punish them them whacking their hands with a ruler. For nothing. (I attended the same public school, but had a different teacher)
Many people vacillate between an obsequious adoration of teachers and schools, and reasonable expectations that you would have for yourself if you were a teacher (there are many teachers in my family, and I once wanted to be a teacher myself)
If you can be kind, firm, reasonable, and if you are a Believer, pray for guidance to say the right things at the right time… you just might have an impact. Go for it. The only thing we have to lose is our future, and all that makes life worth living
And the parents who want to use racism against you in the cities, accusing you of the ol’ “You just don’t like my child” (if consequences are given), often adding “because you’re (r word)” are certainly not hesitant to speak up (and administrators are right by their sides), so definitely traditional parents should be doing it…
Bravo! We need more hands-on parents. I was a stay-at-home mom when it was frowned upon, and I was also a very involved parent. But too many parents, as you say, pawn their kids off on someone else so they can drive nicer cars, wear expensive clothing and keep up with the Kardashians.
They even dress up their kids like rap artists. And this is precisely why we are in the predicament we find ourselves in today.
Catholic schools nationwide have been open all year and there have been no outbreaks or dead teachers or students in the hallways.
My Aunt always jokes “Catholic kids don’t get covid.”
What, no body bags? Impossible! /s
Need to clarify who is the master, and who is the servant/employee.
That would solve everything.
They’re trying to avoid lawsuits. They know that if some kid who is 200lbs overweight, type 2 diabetes, and a smokers gets CV, they’re going to get sued for negligence by the parents. Never mind that eating 6 cheeseburgers and smoking are the actual problem. All the parents are going to do is find that one teacher who refuses to wear a mask during lecture and say, “My precious little darling got CV19 from that unmasked teacher.” There will be no evidence of this, and nobody else (including the teacher) will ever be symptomatic…but the School Board knows they’ll lose in court anyway and have to pay millions.
So, instead of saying “Attend at your own risk, we’re not masking our employees,” they do what Liberals always do: punish everyone to satisfy a few. Most people weren’t wearing masks last year. Mask mandates were due to screaming cat lady Liberals.
It’s the 10% that terrorize them. This is why school standards are cratered. I might set a standard that is 6 feet high. The bottom 10% make zero effort to reach the standard. The parents complain and threaten to sue because their kids are failing. Teachers are told “Can’t we meet them half way?” So the standard gets lowered to 3 feet so the kid can pass. That is now the new standard…until the next kid comes along and refuses to do the work, at which point the standard becomes 1.5 feet.
Pissed my (former) principal off when he started doing that in a staff meeting by saying our expectations are too high especially for minority students. I came off mute and simply said, “Do you know what another word for expectations is? STANDARDS. If you lower your expectations of work, you are by-definition lowering the school’s academic standards.” When I left, we were no longer on speaking terms, and I am very, very, happy about that.
Does the CDC site still say “masks MAY help” rather than WILL help?
I haven’t checked lately but that is what it did say.
I wouldn’t pay any attention to what the CDC says. I’d feel better doing the opposite of what they say.
IMO Every government agency is crooked and totally politicized.
https://www.foxnews.com/us/racism-serious-public-health-threat-cdc-says
I’m a Ford fan, but you nailed this.
CDC is not a government agency. Look it up.
No, but what about OSHA and the EEOC? And workers comp insurance? They all weigh in on social distancing, mask mandates, and of course those MAGIC VACCINES (that aren’t even FDA approved yet) that make this all go away!
Did you know the CDC is a private corporation. It is not government.
Much like the Internal Revenue Service.
Or the Federal Reserve.
Don’t know, but I expect that the government would hedge its bets.
Bravo!
—–signed,
Been there
That makes sense but I think its more than that. I think they like control and power and they like looking down on all the unwashed. I think they are condescending as hell in that video.
Besides, they would win in court. The medical literature does not support mask wearing for preventing the virus. Stanford University recently in the last month published a study that mask wearing has no effect on the virus.
In court, they would be able to bring in all the experts and data that say masks have no effect and there is nothing the Judge could do to keep this out.
True, and I don’t argue with that. I just happen to think they care more about money than kids, and lawsuits eat at their money/power.
Covering their a$$es for what, I don’t know. They are repeatedly excused from responsibility and accountability for their decisions, there can’t even be a successful law suit, how does one prove where they contracted covid? It’s merely political theater, exercising control over the peons.
how does one prove where they contracted covid?
Short answer..
You can’t.
The average person takes between 17,000 and 23,000 breaths a day.
Try proving which breath allowed the Rona in.
They try to “prove” it by contact tracing. If a group of people have Covid-19 they trace it back to the first one who exhibited symptoms. If, say, a group of people get it at work on one shift, it opens a workers comp case.
This forces companies to comply with the mask and distancing guidelines to shield themselves from liability.
That is the game though, isn’t it Judith?
If a company is enforcing masks and distancing, yet a “Group” of people come down with Covid at work (assuming a single individual infected outside the facility gives the group covid), doesn’t that prove the masks don’t stop the spread?
Where is the liability to the business when the “Official Government” solution is a product that does not and can not (as stated on the packaging .. for the manufacturers liability purposes) prevent transmission of the virus?
Good question. You would make a fine insurance adjuster! OSHA has adopted these mask and distancing rules in the workplace, however, so good luck fighting it!
Right now the CDC has issued new guidance lifting masks in certain situations, but only for the experimental vaccine volunteers. However, OSHA has yet to weigh in on that.
It’s like a game of leap frog.
Imagine you have a model train – set up in your garage. You’ve imagined and created the perfect landcape for the train to travel through.
There is, of course, the initial station, from which our journey will begin. Additional “Stations” are created (where passengers and various “types” of rail cars can be exchanged, as circumstances warrant) each time you place a new piece of track.
The final destination is identified…
We’ll name that Station, “Utopia”.
You have a train locomotive and 4 cars in your train set, but, only 6 pieces of track.
You begin at your initial station by laying 2 pieces of track (future narratives, if you will). You place your locomotive on the first piece of track (1st narrative). You then lay the second piece of “narrative” in the direction you want the locomotive to travel (Utopia).
You then “nudge” the locomotive forward, onto the second “narrative”, reaching the first station on the journey and now have an open “narrative” (1st piece of track) behind the locomotive, for your first rail car.
Let’s name the locomotive “Agenda”, and the first rail car, “Diamond Princess”, shall we?
You then place your 3rd piece of track “narrative” in front of the locomotive “Agenda” and move the train forward (toward Utopia) opening up a space for your 2nd rail car, which we’ll name, “Nursing Home”… just for fun.
Nudge the “Agenda” forward on your 4th piece of ” narrative” and add your 3rd rail car “Isolation”.
Add your 5th “narrative”..
Move the “Agenda” forward.. and place your 4th rail car, “Spread”, behind the others.
Add your 6th “narrative”..
Move the “Agenda” forward..

The NEA is more than 3 million democrats FIFY,
And I’m not kidding – my wife spent 40 years in education. Hint: she wasn’t in the NEA.
Did you live in an “open shop” state? My mom taught special ed, and she hated when the unions finally got control, and the schools took fed money. Just prostituted themselves for that money.
Yes, thank goodness. Lots of pressure to join the union, but it isn’t required.
The only reason they talk about relaxing the mask requirement is to push the vaccine trials instead. No more masks is the carrot on the stick .
And those who remain steadfast against their relentless propaganda will get the yellow star (masks) instead.
The new generations are not being taught history. They are being conditioned to believe objective truth and natural rights don’t exist and are instead false constructs detrimental to humanity that need be eliminated from society. It is no less than the brainwashing of generations. What’s more is that if you speak up against THIER ‘truths’, which they base on personal emotions and not logic, you are chastised and thrown out of society via modern day cancel culture tactics designed to eliminate opposition and dissent. Double standards have never been so blatant. It’s passed time for everyone to wake up and stand up to this self empowering tyrannical minority bent on destroying individual freedoms.
And don’t forget, their children will get a classical education at private school.
This condition is a long term Frankfurt School goal to take doen this country from the inside,
yep
Science is LESS VALUABLE that psycholgy-science(what people believe). you control beliefs , you can control socieities.
It is precisely because we have not been taught real history in the last 70 years that most people have no idea what it really is you are talking about.
The Frankfurt School has been insidiously successful beyond even Marx’s, Engels’s, and Marcus’s fevered imagination! Saul Alinsky was an after-thought, but another effective one.
Thank you for your post!
If more people on “our” side don’t take the considerable effort and emotional pains to actually educate themselves in real history, what happened “there” — anyone wondering, look up the Bolshevik Revolution and its causes, and the resulting horrors, to include the Holodomor — WILL happen “here.” It’s inevitable, if this self-education and stopping of this evil trajectory doesn’t happen within this decade.
Once again, thank you.
Start by reminding everyone what normal people look like. They do NOT wear masks! Normal order must be restored! That’s the propaganda that works for us.
My school board in Westchester County NY will now have a conservative on it. He and a moderate whom he supported won the 2 seats up for election yesterday. I spoke to the conservative a week or so ago and he was very much against CRT and the other propaganda being pushed in our schools. To tell you what a big deal this is – my area has a large Hispanic population that has always voted Democrat, until now. He told me spoke to many Hispanics who are very much against CRT and they hate the Latinx labeling as well.
Yes, I remember a conversation i had with a woman at my office who was upset because people were saying she was a “Latina” and she said, ” I am a Mexican, not a Latina.” I said, “The New York Times says you are a Latina.” And she said, “Who are they to tell me who I am? I am a Mexican. I do not want to be put in the same pot as Cubans and Puerto Ricans.”
The left condescends to everyone. The big secret is they really don’t like people, they like power.
And they are pitifully ignorant of the many shades of Latino populations (and how much they despise each other).
So ignorant.
Trickle down tyranny MUST be confronted.
smart words, keep using that phrase until it sticks with others.
once you see it said elsewhere , then you know it met saturation.
Love that phrase
And don’t forget, their children will get a classical education at private school.
The good people of AZ should start with lawsuits and boycotts. Start suing…school boards, teachers union, any government agency that is still using this bs to lord over them.
Plenty of actual data that proves what these want to be tyrants are wrong. None of this is about safety.
Real damages are being done to children. Young kids are going to be jacked up from this. Think what divorces do to young children. Tax dollars being used improperly on top of everything else.
AZ politics is very rigged. Ask yourselves who really runs that state…can use last few elections there to get a good wag.
Not sure of counties can sue but they should sue Maricopa, Douchey, and anyone else responsible for the disenfranchisement and tyranny.
Remind them that there is no royalty here. They are not betters.
Only Liberty.
I’ve said this before. A large group with a dedicated spokesman needs to go to the county prosecutor. They need to file a criminal complaint of conspiracy to commit child abuse against all the school board members for mandating that children have to wear masks in school.
After that they need to go after the school board superintendents and then the principals. This group also needs to inform the parties involved that they are going to take legal action against them, both criminal and civil. That way the school boards will have to begin to discuss this mask madness with their attorneys. Nobody is going to want this hot potato. They may just suddenly do a 180 without any explanation other than-“ The scientists have said the science is now settled and the children need not wear masks anymore.” Desired outcome achieved. Then get solid candidates to run for office and boot them to the curb. Remember nothing changes until the lawyers get involved. Force the school board to talk to their legal representatives about this. That is where it all starts and ends with the lawyers.
The school board in my town voted months ago to make masks optional. Then just this week, they voted unanimously to end all distance learning, plus they told parents if they don’t like it, they should enroll their kids in a school that has that option next year.
Also, it sounds like Leander, TX, needs some good conservatives on their school boards–the lesbian-authored, sex-focused books on their reading list are disgusting!
Oh my goodness… I live in that area and while I don’t have kids in the school district I was disgusted to hear about the book reading list and they are pushing CRT in Leander…Last I heard parents had staged a walk out on 4/28…I never thought I would see this crap in my area, but we have A LOT of out of people moving in from CA and East coast.
Ya, and all those CA and East coast folks moving to TX are conservative.
At least that’s all I ever hear.
Ya, I know, I don’t buy it either.
in summary,
You are witnessing the evolution of victimization.
First step – make victimization a trophy and the most important person of the group
Second step – weaponize it to give “victims” the advantage in all aspects of life
This STEP – weaponize the further harm to the victim actors ( they acted terrified and unable to do their job because mask werent worn in the room – Keep in mind they were in the room prior to running out. – would be dead anyways with how deadly this virus has been presented)
——–
Fork in the road for America – was when victims were decided as a valauble positions, versus taming the WILD WILD WEST and overcoming all.
NO PLACE BETTER ON EARTH that America – for white, black, hispanic, asian, eastern, gay, trans, pronouned, etc…..
tar and feathers or just good old-fashioned shunning. If the local community, would shun the school board and other local government scumbags a lot of their crap would end.
It’s no fun when your kids don’t get invited to birthday parties or have anyone to play with. It’s no fun when you have to call multiple plumbers to get one to come to your house. It’s not fun to be ridiculed and shamed every time you go to the grocery store. Etc. Etc.
Public school is child abuse. Instead of wasting your time confronting school boards, administrators and teachers, start homeschooling, form a homeschool co-op, investigate your local private schools.
For the life of me, I can’t understand why people send their children to leftist indoctrination six to eight hours a day and expect their kids not to be indoctrinated.
This goes double for college. I can’t tell you how many people I know who sent their well-adjusted, decent kid off to college and they came back a raving lefty lunatic that causes nothing but misery in the family.
Questioning The War On COVID-19
A war effort based on bad information has endangered civil liberties, promoted public disorder, and deepened our social divides.
https://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/questioning-the-war-on-covid-19/
Last year, America went to war against an invisible enemy. Calling himself a “wartime president,” Donald Trump deemed the outbreak of COVID-19 “worse than Pearl Harbor … worse than the World Trade Center.” Democrats echoed his martial rhetoric. Joe Biden proposed a revival of Franklin D. Roosevelt’s War Production Board. Andrew Cuomo urged Americans to support our troops, though in this battle, he said, “the troops are healthcare professionals.”
Wartime spirit spread. Every night at seven, the streets of Manhattan echoed with cheers for “frontline” healthcare workers. Vegetable seeds were backordered for “victory gardens.” A writer in the Atlantic hailed“one of the most beautiful moments in our country’s long history—a moment of shared, galvanizing national spirit that has existed in perhaps only in a handful of epochal years before, like 1776, 1861, 1933, and 1941, and, in modern times, after 9/11.”
Lockdowns, social distancing, and masks were promoted not just for their health effects but as expressions of officially approved public spiritedness. Cuomo asked: “You want to honor the healthcare workers, and the people who literally gave their lives? … Wear a mask.” The journalist Matthew Zeitlin wrote: “To contribute to a great national cause in World War II you had to, like, die face down in the muck on some tiny pacific island. Now you can literally stay at home, watch the Sopranos or that Netflix dating show and be a hero.”
Dissent was not tolerated. Those who challenged lockdowns and masking requirements were depicted as white nationalists, neo-Nazis, or simply unhinged. As with the flag pin after 9/11, failure to wear a mask could be taken as a sign of disloyalty.

I may be wrong but I do not remember Trump saying that Covid was worse than Pearl Harbor or 9-11. My perception of his stance was that it was a complete hoax but of course he could never say that.
Maybe it was the outsized, over-the-top *response* to Covid-19 that President Trump was referring to?
This is what we did, at it’s paid in dividends. Spread the word because our youngest is in a fantastic private college holding a 4.0 GPA.

Dr. Ron Paul was called “Dr. No” for a reason, because if the bills in congress did not mirror the constitution then he voted no!
Thanks for the info!!!
Proud Scottsdale Resident. Hope to see more people stand up to these little pathetic Napoleon wannabes
Remove the entire board.
Some attendees “felt uncomfortable” about other attendees who were not wearing masks?
As the song goes, Feelings. Nothing more than feelings…
“Most of our students are either not eligible or have not been vaccinated, and by following a careful mitigation strategy devised in concert with local, state and federal health agency guidelines and recommendations..”
SD ⬆
guidelines and recommendations.. ?
Guidelines…
Because we were told to tell you to.
Recommendations…
Do what your told
And listen to the stilted expression….not even they believe what they’re saying – we can tell by how they use the most bureaucratic and formal language possible…
Indeed, vladdy.
I run into a hell of a lot more ADULT snowflakes than I do kids.
You can reason with kids. Adults are true believers even if their beliefs make NO sense.
THIS ⬆
They don’t care one who votes as long as the Democrat Socialists of America or the Farm Labor Party wins. DSA uses A Red Rose for their symbol. The other party is only in Minnesota and that might not be the exact name.
“Breeding grounds” apparently has a lot of definitions.
Here in this part of NY too.
https://babylonbee.com/news/satan-announces-masks-will-still-be-required-in-hell
Now they need to visit each and every one of the board members homes and “peacefully” protest for nights on end.
Schools never were at risk of becoming “a breeding ground” for the china virus. It has been public knowledge since last June that asymptomatic infectees do not transmit the disease (a finding that WHO announced from its contact tracing efforts).
Most school-age infectees are asymptomatic and almost all young people who do get symptoms have mild and brief symptoms which have a correspondingly low transmission rate.
Schools are simply not an important vector of transmission. They never were and they never could be, which might be a bit unlucky, given that young people are not at significant risk of harm from this particular version of the Fauci-CCP virus.
When a mutated version comes back around it might, like the Spanish Flu, attack the young instead of the old, at which point we will be very sorry we tried so hard to keep them from getting the harmless version and gain what would likely be substantial cross immunity against future Fauci-CCP variants.
Alas, letting the Fauci virus run through the schools never was a possibility. It just doesn’t transmit well enough among that group. But at least they could have still gone to school instead of having a year of their lives confiscated from them in a vain attempt to “save grandma” (and to save fat-assed tye-died nose-ringed cross-dressing woke-totalitarian “teachers”).
We aren’t supposed to force some people to sacrifice their lives for others in this country in the first place, never mind on fraudulent bases that don’t actually help anyone.
It only seems to transmit really well in nursing homes or hospitals. I wonder why?
“When a mutated version comes back around it might, …..” I’ve heard that all mutated versions of viruses are mutated DOWNWARD, that is LESS lethal or dangerous.
A lot of wealth in Scottsdale, more than enough to fund more than several new school board members.
Won’t be long until it happens.
This is my school district. My child is graduating this week. I’ll wear a mask to his graduation over my dead body. Look for me on the news 🙂
Don’t have any kids in school but if I did, I couldn’t stand it. After all the horror stories from distance learning, critical race theory indoctrination, legal action because a gun was in background, and leftist propaganda and mask mandates with no basis, is it time to say that some public education is worse than no education at all?
Seems that many parents could quit their jobs, collect the government dole, do a rudimentary home school education, and kids would be better off.
They would be happier and healthier too.
So agree, but it would be a means of “direct action” if we took it upon our selves to also get OUR people into the schools in wide numbers. Since there will always be some people who want “the experts” (heh, I’m laughing here) to do certain jobs, there is no reason we should not be entering the field, encouraging our (mature, not PC) offspring and friends to enter the field, and considering certification (yeah, I know, dumb, but that’s how it is until we change it) as mid-life career changers…
How better to be sure our ideas are spread and engrained in the next generation than by taking advantage of the fact that there are these centers-of-learning/propaganda/indoctrination/truth — whatever we make of them — in all of our communities — and send our people there to be sure it’s done correctly?
Could not agree more with all the home-schoolers and have recommended it when I was a public school teacher…but it’s sad that we do not take advantage of situations as the left does, when this is one thing (government schooling our taxes pay for) that we could USE to our benefit — and for the benefit of generations to come.
Individual teachers can install that “classical education” instead of following the foolish fads and trends districts push –because they are the ones that are there in the classroom. Tradtitionalists using sources such as E.D. Hirsch make sure that their students (home-schooled or in the classroom) get that knowledge, but we have to be there for society as well as for our own familes….Because there will always be other people, who send their kids to public schools — so we have to get involved in every way possible.
When it comes to schooling and use of language (as well as loyalty to our own, ideologically), I fear we fall behind the left — they know it and they continuously use it against us.
I had two friends from my CCW class who had been employed by Pratt-Whitney for several years, and when it closed, they decided to get gov’t jobs. He was a teacher, she worked at the sheriffs dept, in 2012. (Bottom of the 2008 depression in FL).
One night at dinner, they were complaining they hadn’t gotten their 3% annual raise, complaining bitterly.
My jaw dropped, as I knew that many of their neighbors were LOSING THEIR JOBS, AND THEIR HOMES…And I said so…To count their blessings. They momentarily looked ashamed, but it passed quickly!
And they were professed Christians. We never had dinner again, and they cut off the friendship. Entitled as hell, ungrateful, unreachable. Not Christian.
The rot runs deep.
At least they got into the meeting. In Buncombe county NC their idea of a public meeting is to sit in a windowless room with face masks on and 6 ft apart from each other with someone with a camera filming them and showing it on facebook. They then threatened to arrest people if the didn’t disperse because they declared it a protest and they didn’t want to walk through the people at the end of the meeting. There is something underway to address what happened ie affidavits will be served to board, sheriff, and deputy who blocked the door and would not even let people use the bathroom. Hopefully this week.
Don’t stop there people. Your Library board and Fire District board are also just as guilty abusing your tax dollars. Both are porn shit holes and double dippers.
.
Another thing patriots need to put on the agendas is to push for “Sunshine” laws in your state that are modeled on Florida’s — state and local officials are prohibited from meeting in secret. All must be public.
Meanwhile, Ron DeSantis needs to put the hammer down on state and local officials and employees who somehow ALL are “voluntarily” masking up even though they are no longer allowed to enforce masks on the “customers”. (Really? I don’t believe it. Coercion comes in many forms.)
This is the prevailing attitude you get from low-level bureaucrats when your VOTE DOES NOT MATTER.
Casual observations from my shopping trip today: Tractor Supply, 70% of customers masked; Walmart, 90% of customers masked; Aldi’s, my wife and I were only people in the store without a mask. A lot of fear out there yet, or maybe it’s brainwashing. I would say mission accomplished by those who conducted the social behavior experiment via Covid restrictions.
I have been going into stores unmasked all day yesterday and today. No one has said one word to me masked or unmasked, shopper or employees. Even the Dollar Tree had a sign saying that you need a mask to get in the store. I ignored it the sign and no one said a word. I saw some smiles for the first time in a long time.
Here in North West Oklahoma it is the opposite. 99 percent maskless in our stores.
The larger cities, Tulsa, OKC, or around a medium city you run into the liberal pearl clutching busy bodies wearing masks. The good thing is these liberals mostly have a need for self preservation, so they say nothing to the maskless crowd.
The liberals here are learning real fast that when you confront someone here about a mask, the pushback is real and it can get physical real fast. The liberals revert to the fight or flight instinct.
Guess which one they pick? LOL
Also
Our public school, where my grandsons will be attending, No Mask Policy.
Curious? Where are you located?
WV. Went shopping in Morgantown. Couldn’t believe I saw so many people still wearing masks.
NEW BOARD!
NEW BOARD!
NEW BOARD!
LOL
I think those petty bureaucrats are in for a rude awakening come election day!
Oh… wait… Are they Scamocrats?
For those who have school age kids. Leftists make up the majority of school board members, so either run for a trustee position, homeschool, or suffer. Pick one.
And they don’t take kindly to conservative board members…Will gang up on you and make life miserable, call private meetings and exclude you, etc.
Good run with a friend and campaign together, get elected together.
Prolonged oxygen deprivation must be really good for healthy little minds . .
We are citizens, not subjects. We control government, not the government controls us.
I heard this today from someone, and we need to start telling these School Boards this is the way it is.
Our way or the Highway.
That snarky letter by the School Superintendent Dr. Scott A. Menzel needs to be printed out and stapled to that smart asses forehead. Tell him that was by the authority of the citizens
take them out and line up against a wall.
This is how 5 million March to DC, one school, one committee at a time. Build a wave!
Here is a good website to get COVID information:
https://swprs.org/face-masks-evidence/
https://swprs.org/vaccines-the-tip-of-the-iceberg/
https://swprs.org/covid-rna-vaccines-deaths/
https://swprs.org/israel-why-is-all-cause-mortality-increasing/
https://swprs.org/can-covid-vaccinations-drive-covid-deaths/
so, none of the students have gotten covid and the schools are open again… but this board just wants to use its ‘authority’ for………………………………..?
This type of leftist outlook must be removed from every school board in every district everywhere.
This type of leftist outlook MUST be REMOVED from every level of county, city and state government everywhere!
We’ve had enough of this crap.
In my district all the school
board had to do was threaten to defund a school activity and all the mommies fell right in line. It was pathetic to see this strategy play out over and over again.
The only people who ever challenged the school board were those members of the community who had no skin in the game except for the skyrocketing taxes they paid towards generous compensation packages for teachers and administrators.
And those “challenges” were limited to two minutes a month, if the board meetings were even open to the public at all.
How did we become so accustomed to totalitarianism?? To accept it, or wield it?
NOT AMERICAN!!
I used to stick my neck out a lot and try to organize the sheeple to initiate positive changes. I started petitions to bring to school and town meetings, initiated studies and was active in many community efforts ..
But most residents don’t want to know about it and can’t be bothered to get involved. Nothing gets done in the end without the voters.
Today, I got my notice in the mail to vote for the school budget, with all the budget breakdowns. However, the vote took place two days ago. This is typical.
I live in an area where several teachers reside. Guess where most of their kids go to school. If you said CATHOLIC school you win the prize.
Sadly, parents will fight for their children over masks but not their futures in an overspending federal government (which they cannot evade) and a two tiered justice system.
Yes, this is a sign of good things but we need priorities and focus.
School board elections are typically non-partisan (sic) which allows all sorts of stealth candidates, often union shills to get elected.
Government indoctrinates. The Church educates. It is as simple as that.
Pardon the vulgarity but, what a bunch of candy asses.
Health and welfare is not in the constitution. Supream Court just said so. For whatever that worth. These Leftist insects have no authority to do any of this.
The problem is liberals have morphed into fascists and are easily led into policies that are destroying the fabric of our society and country. This is being done purposely so freedom which is the basis of our people’s lives is swept away so that satan followers can enslave us for their pleasure. God Bless All Patriots who stand against this madness and oppose the satanic globalist pedophiles!
Which is the REAL reason we need to get SERIOUSLY back to God. He’s never left us.
Follow those 10 Commandments
These are just the beginning, but y’all get the idea!!!!
Extraordinary restraint by the audience. Too much in my view.
where are all those “people of color” ?
