It is not coincidental that Chicago becomes the place where the insufferable communist activist teachers become most visible in their attacks against parents and students. In the method of using the sector of education as a weapon, the Marxists in Chicago are the epicenter of communist ideology.
Chicago is Saul Alinsky, Bill Ayers, Bernadine Dohrn, and of course, Barack Obama. The teacher’s union in Chicago is a fully communist education movement, with an entrenched belief that all children belong to the grand communal outlook they represent.
So, it does not come as a surprise to see the Chicago Teachers Union tell the city officials ‘they are in charge‘ and they will dictate COVID policy.
CHICAGO – Classes were canceled Wednesday in Chicago, the country’s third-largest school district, as union leaders and city officials failed to reach an agreement over how to operate schools safely amid the surge in coronavirus cases – an impasse cemented with a late-night vote from Chicago Teachers Union that could lock students out of in-person learning until mid-January.
“Right now, going into school puts us at risk, puts our students and families at risk,” union President Jesse Sharkey said in a press conference Wednesday morning. “That’s the simple truth of the matter. This is a virus that’s raging through the city.”
Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot rebuffed the claims by union representatives that the entire district should operate remotely until the rapid spread of the highly transmissible omicron variant subsides or until city officials enforce more stringent safety protocols.
“I cannot stand here in good conscience as the mayor of this city,” she said, “and tell you that it makes sense to shut down an entire system. If I thought it did, if I heard that from our public health experts, then I would be the first one to tell you that’s what we must do.” (read more)
Modern Democrats are communists. Their modern tools for power retention are based on Marxism. Their increased influence and success are the downstream consequence of their use of Barack Obama.
After decades of effort and positioning, using racism as a weapon, Obama became the tool and inflection point to mainstream communism as an acceptable political effort inside U.S. politics. Everything after, including the issues today with Omicron et al, is simply a consequence.
Although I feel sorry for working parents with young children along with students who lack the ability to basically teach themselves, I would not want my children in a classroom in today’s school system.
Transgender teachers
out of control fighting – usually initiated by blacks
black lives matter flags hanging on classroom walls
along with Rainbow flags and Black power flags
teaching critical race theory
asking whites to curb their inherent racism
blatant sex education; teaching gay and lesbian sex
masturbation, condems, etc. Fifth and sixth graders
watching explicit birthing videos
What is basically pornography in school libraries
(personal experience with my second grade granddaughter)
teaching that America is bad
teaching all the wonderul things other countries
have contributed to the world while basically ignoring the US
on and on and on
No thanks! My granddaughter can’t wait to go back to in home schooling.
I also feel sympathy for parents. But, they MUST protect their children. Either take control of the school boards or organize to develop a plan for shared homeschooling by employing teachers who are not communist lefties and teach reading/writing/math and civics.
Time to break the d___ unions!
Patton was correct when he wanted to roll up the soviets and Stalin after Nazi Germany was beaten. We have been at war with commie Russia ever since.
Separate the ideology from the good people and I am in total agreement. The people, in whose name all this sh1t is done in the name of, deserve peace!
There is no need to “roll up” Russia. Russia has a GDP equivelent to New York. A minor player compared to China. The real problem is all the pension funds propping up the Communists in China. Once that bubble pops look out.
And in the west MacArthur wanted to do the same with China and was demonized by the pansy liberal politicians of the 40’s.
Each day it seems like more and more of America is slipping away as these bullying monsters blanket over all that is good.
All the more incentive to Make America Great Again, Again!
Tomorrow the bully monsters will be on steroids with their phone muh, insurrection celebrations.
It seems that way because it is true. Now it is past just slipping away and is flowing like rushing water through a broken dam. All the while our elected Republican “representatives” steal fuel from the machinery that we need to plug the leaks. Our system is broken, our America is dying a slow and painful death while we watch and wring our hands. Time to abandon ship and bide our time until we can rebuild from the ashes that Liberty will become.
Goodbye America, it was nice to know ya.
These people are morons, like school is the only place you come in contact with the common cold or flu.
The strange thing about this mess is the schools are Still open. Kids can go to the school have their meals.
Aren’t we worried about the kids health? Or just the commie teachers.

Schools, just like the courts and jails, want out of actually performing the tasks they are paid for….in order to pocket the saved money.
Per Daily Beast this next COVID variant could be a “tripple whammy nightmare .” So, you know, better get extra scared.
I believe this year you see effects of a virus or chimera that will cause instant, intense internal bleeding and death within two minutes of the signs. I don’t know if the mRNA is behind it, but it will overwhelm any mitigation attempts. It won’t be stopped by any government and the elite will drop dead where they stand.
This would normally be the fodder of Coast-To-Coast AM but these days not that far fetched.
Source for this assertion?
I believe it was from Mission Impossible 2
Are you talking about “bullets”?
I feel like printing out this article just so I can draw a beard and mustache on Obama. Is that wrong?
Yeap, the FIB is probably on the way for you now for because of that insurrectionist statement.
Wishful thinking, let me get away with optimistic, someone, somewhere, who didn’t previously know, has now realized that the government teachers union and their members don’t have children high on their priority list.
If you are employed in the public edumacation system and you in any way support the teachers unions and critical race theory – either as an active supporter or by quiet acquiescence – you ARE the problem. There is not one shred of difference between you and the sexual predator grooming our children. You are the sworn enemy of American children and you will treated as such. We know you.
These Parents overwhelmingly vote Democrat…Their parents overwhelmingly voted for the Democrat…..Hard to feel sorry for these people….Are these parents in the streets protesting the teachers and the Union??? No….and there you go….
This is a stumbling block, isn’t it.
And what have YOU done to change things? The kids in Chicago schools (and other municipalities) are American children.
For the last several decades I have been telling anyone who would hear it that our public schools do not teach.
Back in the 1990s, one of the bigger magazines of the time (Newsweek?) devoted an issue to “The Tutoring Age”, describing how schools were not teaching kids how to read, and parents had to hire tutors. Yet Americans in droves continued to go along with the fiction that schools were for “socialization”. Well now we have this Socialist nightmare.
Much more difficult NOW to end it, but that must happen if we are going to
survive

Not my responsibility to figure out Chicago’s problems…I don’t live there and would never live there…I live in SWFL and that’s what I care about….Chicago’s problems is very simple…..The Blacks need to stop voting for Democrats and other minorities…..If 95% of ‘Whites’ voted Republican it would be considered Racist….Yet, any other ethnicity can vote lock-step with their ethnicity and it’s acceptable, perfectly fine….
If a hurricane hits SWFL I will just assume you will turn down any help from outside SWFL. With all the election fraud going on, how anyone can come up with opinions based on numbers given to us by the media or any other Democrat controlled bureaucracy is more a reflection of their personal wishes and beliefs.
Exactly, The citizens of Chicago overwhelming vote for free stuff and the truly incompetent evil politicians who will give it to them. They get exactly what they deserve!
That’s the problem, Wonder, these people are not really Americans!
There is not one democrat alive I have any sorrow for. It makes zero sense to feel sorry for the enemy of freedom and Liberty. The fact they are dumb and stupid is their handicap and they can live with it….screw’em.
Something like a quarter of persons residing in Chicago are now illegal alien Hispanic. But for all the illegal immigrants, Chicago would have had a huge net loss in population over the last 10 years. Even if some vote illegally, I doubt most bother.
Can you really blame this state of affairs on “voters” then? Maybe better blamed on eligible voters who don’t, or just fixed elections
Totally agree! It’s scary to see some posters here try to hide their “inner klan” tendencies.
To more than a few here, the definition of an honest election is one held in a place and among people they despise so therefore, those people deserve every bad thing that happens to them.
I don’t think the free stuff crowd in Chicago and the Leftist politicians there who provide it them would ever rush to your defense, Boogey!
Obamicron.
Condomicron.
Reassemble Omicron = Moronic 😂
Fire
Them
All
Yes FTA and what you said too.
must. break. unions.
I agree. Indeed, close the schools and then FIRE their asses. 😂
This will cause more people to move next the money runs out or the illusion of money runs out the Dem cities are in slow collapse waiting for Fed money as always That’s the BBB Bailout BigCity Bonds
Modern Democrats are Communists. For sure ! And all RINOs are Fascists. We have been getting hit by both for the
last 100 years !!!
You could make every single person in Chicago a millionaire but it would change very few lives. They could shoot more, steal more, dope up more etc, but within a few months, everything would be back to their “normal”.
The Che Guevara flag reminded me of an article I read about how much Che Guevara hated Black people.
Marxists pretend hard to not know things.
The teachers’ union hold too much power. If they can successfully force “Remote Learning” onto the American public, they can slow our economy WAY DOWN.
They know this, at it ENCOURAGES their commie leadership.
When I first joined the faculty at Minnesota in 1977, we had remedial programs in two subjects– math and computer science. We expected students to graduate in four years.
In 1989, my department became the 41st to take the plunge, and it was starting to be accepted that students would need five years to earn a degree. So, the rot in public education set in long before Obama; I would put the terminus post quem somewhere in the mid-60’s. Over the decades, it became increasingly clear that the high school graduates best prepared for higher education were the home schooled, followed by the products of private academies, then the Catholic schools. If university faculties had not dumbed down their curricula, it would have been obvious thirty years ago that K-12 public education was a very bad and very expensive joke.
Went from catholic school to public high school circa 1969. I was several grades ahead which I attribute for me being a goof off in HS.
I want to personally thank the teacher’s union for the large in-kind campaign contribution to the non-rino republicans everywhere for both 2022 and 2024.
“Right now, going into school puts us at risk, puts our students and families at risk,” union President Jesse Sharkey said”
No, sending a child into your Marxist education camps is putting them at risk. Best just to never reopen your cesspools of lower learning ever again.
So what you’re saying is, they were right that students are at risk, just not in the way they intended?
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/114039.Exposing_the_Real_Che_Guevara
I read this book. Excellent. That pig Guevara spent his days signing death warrants for Cuban citizens convicted in kangaroo courts. The firing wall was outside his office. He sometimes shot the victims himself. That Americans should ever wear this commie b%st%rd’s picture shows how much God has removed His protection from America, and how much Satan has influenced if not entered into Americans and America.
Excerpt
The reality, as we learn from Cuban exile Humberto Fontova, is that Che wasn’t really a gentle soul and a selfless hero. He was a violent Communist who thought nothing of firing a gun into the stomach of a woman six months pregnant whose only crime was that her family opposed him. And he was a hypocrite who lusted after material luxuries while cultivating his image as a man of the people.
Exposing the Real Che Guevara is based on scores of interviews with survivors of Che’s atrocities as well as the American CIA agent who interrogated Che just hours before the Bolivian government executed him.
👍👍
All Marxists are hard core lying hypocrites.
Send them all home – forever.
Sundance seems to be hitting the Communists hard today. Maybe we are getting over the target now. No?
OK. Next contract 2 weeks of work and 50 weeks vacation.
The 2 week work period will be scheduled during cold or flu season.
Hugh Hewitt show today decrying this.
His solution? More centralized power – in 2024 get the “red wave” Congress and Republican president to outlaw public unions nationwide. Because what we need is less power to the states, more to the feds, right Hugh?
Silver tongued scum. Never let a crisis go to waste.
Not that I’m endorsing public employee unions. They are poisonous. But states and local jurisdictions can and should deal with that devil, no more centralization.
Good ! The longer the Gubment Screwels are closed the better for us to monitor more closely what garbage they are trying to feed the mind of our beautiful children. ! Keep the schools closed for good until they are no longer Communist Indoctrination Institutions .
Like Amjean says , I feel very badly for working parents that have no other option than to send kids to these horrible prison of the body and mind centers.
Teachers Unions.
The name says it all— teachers.
Unions exist to get better pay and benefits for their members. In this case-teachers.
Teachers Unions have nothing to do with the education of students.
Absolutely nothing.
P.S. Homeschooling,parochial, private..
Anything but Public Education!
Taxpayers letting the inmates run the asylum & destroy the youth.
Hmm… whassup?
Homeschooling seems to be the only option for those who wish their children to learn the foundational truths that made America the once-great country it was. For those who think they are unable to homeschool, keep in mind there are homeschool co-opts where parents band together to help teach each other’s children. These co-opts are common in most places around the country.
For more good COVID/Vax info – https://anchoredinhope.com/
Striking teachers & school staff should be treated like students quarantined after being “exposed” to c19. They should be confined to their homes for the duration of the strike. That will smarten them up.
THEY are the insurrectionists. Along with Pelosi, Ilhan, AOC, Pressley, Rashida, et al.
-8 traits that comprise the world of Communist Teachers(ideological totalists)
Milieu Control(social media, quarantine, self-isolation, remote learning)
Mystical Manipulation(great society, BBB, great reset, pachamama, utopia)
Sacred Science(race/climate/mask/welfare science)
Demand for Purity(injection mandates, DEI)
Doctrine Over Person(pretending not to know things)
Loading the Language(critical theory, emotional learning, newspeak)
Confession(kneel, social shaming, victim/oppressor hunting, self-loathing)
Dispensing with Existence(censorship, lawfare, ritual defamation)
My opinion only.
One of the largest costs all schools budgets is the cost of the insurance premium of assuming liability of children during the school year.
Question: If the children are not physically on school property are these school districts still making payments for these policies.
Hmm…
No Work… No Pay! The liberals have caused a whole generation of kids to be used as political pawns. This nation will pay for an entire generation for the harm they have caused to American School Children!
To bad we don’t have anyone in Chicago who has any “BALLS”…and fire the “Commies” like Reagan did to the air traffic controllers when they went on strike….Oh wait!….”LIGHTFOOT” doesn’t have any “BALLS”….NEVER MIND
Oh, don’t forget Hillary as a Chicago communist who sat at the feet of Bill Ayers.
Dems will harm children and their parents to keep the unlawful education unions supporting them.
All this over a upper respiratory cold!
Here in the Socialist subs of Houston during lock down last year Some school districts had 3rd party venders handing out box lunches to students while their parents drove up in benz and BMW’s!
