There are two major problems with this Bridges math curriculum; 1) it is aligned with the Common Core concept that has dumbed down our students, and 2) it is filled with "social justice" leftwing examples that politically brainwash children. Neither of these things are in the best interests of students. We should reject politicized curricula. Florida rejected the SAVVAS math curriculum because it injected CRT into math problems.
It was particularly concerning when Dr. Phillips whose job is to coordinate new curricula told the school board that the Bridges curriculum was "not Common Core" in spite of Beidges own website boasting that it was, in fact, aligned with Common Core. Is Phillips just that out of touch that he did not know, or did he deliberately mislead the board? Neither answer speaks well for the school administration's handling of this curriculum.

The FBI has done so many things to trample on our Constitution in its partisan political intervention that it is not savable. That is sad considering the past honorable history of this organization, but it is now in a position it can simply not be trusted any more. We need a new national law enforcement agency with new leadership and new employees, and most importantly a structure that cannot be misused for political purposes like the FBI has been.

Maybe it was a poor business decision to settle that case, or maybe they were in a court with an adverse judge and a politically hostile jury and just deciced to cut and run. There are places in this country where conservatives cannot get a fair trial and probably places a liberal cannot get a fair trial.
But the way the MSM and PBS / NPR blatant skew things politically in their "reporting" is not journalism. It is political proseletizing. The MSM is little more than the propaganda arm of the Democrat Party.

This horror story is oh, so similar, to the nurse who was the whistleblower at that child gender transition clinic in Missouri. These ghoulish doctors are following in the footsteps of Josef Mengele in mutilating children and premanently altering them with high powered drugs, while the doctors and Big Pharma are lining their pockets with profits from this nightmare inflicted on vulnerable children. And it is so clear from the whistleblowers, that no one in these clinics really gives a hoot for the children they are butchering.
IT is great that so many states are banning this nightmare. It is no surprise that the hair-sniffer-in-chief Biden supports this abomination against vurnerable children. What is outrageous is the wokesters like Little Bobbie who either condone it or claim it isn't happening. And we have East Carolina University Medical School, right in our backyard, doing this to children as well. At least the Brits used a mental health facility for this butchery, not a general hospital.

Commented on Florida bans DEI in public universitiesNorth Carolina is throwing away a lot of taxpayer money on this radical DEI garbage at our state universities. Why is our "Republican" legislature allowing this travety? Why is liberal Republican Jon Hardister who has headed key legislative committees that should deal with this asleep at the switch? His failure to act on DEI makes him totally unacceptable as a nominee for Labor Commissioner. Just say NO to woke Jon Hardister in the GOP primary for Labor Commissioner.

Commented on If I were the Devil...History is history. It is not "white history" or "black history" or "green history" or "pink history". It is just history. That is until you try to politically distort it with something like CRT or the 1619 Project. What you want, Bolshevik Bob, is woke history and that is not real historty at all. Even the originator of the 1619 Project has admitted it is not history. You loony left woke buffoons want to make everything about race, but it is not. As race hustlers, you are the main racists of today. You purveyors of America's Maoist Cultural Revolution do, indeed, attack great explorers like Columbus as part of your War on History. Don't you comprehend you are being both anti-Catholic and anti-Italian when you do so?

Your obsession is with something not related that has been dead and buried for over half a century, although your nutty 150 year timeline below contends it ended just eight years ago. I did not have anything to do with that, but if you say you did you must think you are older than the oldest person in the Guiness Book of Records. All you can do, Bolshevik Bob is to deflect because you have no legitimate arguments on the issue at hand.

As to BLM being Marxist, there was a video posted on this site 2 or 3 years ago, where one of the three co-founders of BLM boasted that she and another of the BLM co-founders were "trained Marxists". The third co-founder had lots of Marxist connections but apparently she was just an untrained Marxist. I take them at their word as to what they are, but apparently you want to whitewash it.
As to you, your support of attacks on history is identifal to Mao's Cultural Revolution, and you clearly support the Marxist CRT. Of course, there are other strains of totalitarianism that also support similar attacks on history like Muslim fanatics like ISIS and the Taliban and fascists.

Bolshevik Bob is taking the same position on destroying historic monuments that was taken by ISIS, the Taliban, Hitler, Stalin, and Mao. He is a fellow traveller with all of those cancel culture tyrants.
Confederae mounuments were erected at the same interval after the war as the Union monuments, and inded a similar interval as World War I and World War II monuments. And who is it that has been making major attacks on monuments here? The Marxist BLM organization, that's who. BLM has been attacking historical monuments all over the world..

President Eisenhower signed an executive order saying that Confederate veterans are American veterans and are to be treated the same way. Those who want to dishonor any of our veterans are scumbags who are beneath contempt. Bobbie, you ought to take your Maoist Cultural Revolution over to where it started in Beijing. Anti-veteran anti-southern bigots like you are not wanted here. Begone, troll.

Arlington House and its surrounding lands, now the Arlington National Cemetery was the private property of General Robert E. Lee, inherited from his father-in-law, and seized without compensation by the yankees during the War Between the States. Removing the monument is one more yankee outrage.
ANd Bigot Bob, you have just outted yourself as an American Maoist pursuing the American far left's Cultural Revolution in attacking our history. You are a despicable scumbag. And you clearely have no problem with monuments to yankee war criminals like Sherman and Sheridan, with their widespread arson, looting, rape, and murder of southern civilians in blatant violation of the Geneva Convention of 1863 and of the preceding Common Law of War.

What is NOT true is the far left narrative you always parrot. It is mostly a mixture of lies and half truths, but you follow it blindly, Big Government Bob. The woman who concocted the 1619 project has admitted it is not history. CRT is a reqrite of history by admitted Marxists to try to foster divisions in society that the far left can exploit. They are both political distortions of history, but the far left like yourself follow them blindly.

What is not real history is CRT, the 1619 Project, and similar crap. Martin Luther King's call to judge everyone by the content of their character instead of the color of their skin is an ideal that ought to be taught in schools, but it is not part of CRT because it calls for racial harmoney instead of the racial division that CRT seeks.

Don't be too sure of what MLK would be if he were alive today. Take his neice, Alveda King, who was active in the civil rights movement herself. Her politics went from being a Democrat state legislator and supporter of Jesse Jackson for president to a public supporter of Donald Trump for president in 2016 and 2020. She responds to the CRT / DEI / ESG advocates by saying the only race that is important is the human race. MLK may well have followed a similar path to that of his neice.

Martin Luther King's concept of "judging people by the content of their character instead of the color of their skin" aligns exactly with the American principle of equality of opportunity. The DEI dogma, on the other hand, aligns with Kark Marx's Coummunist Manifesto and the concept of government imposed equality of result.

Let's look at what happened. The bill as filed prohiboted BOTH the actual practice of gender reassignment procedures both surgical and pharmaceutical, and the use of state money to pay for it. A late committee substitute (a frequent tactic of the "leadership" when they want to ram something through against the wishes of the GOP base) took prohibitions on pharmaceutical intervention out of the bill. The floor amendment restored that ONLY as to use of state funds.
Now let's look behind the scenes at what happened. The forces working against this bill inside the Raleigh Republican establishment were from two directions. One was Big Medicine's waterboy in the legislature, State Rep. Tim Reeder (RINO-Pitt), who wants Big Medicine to continue to make big bucks by screwing up children. This contrasts with Utah where a private practice medical doctor was the chief sponsor of successful legislation to shut down this quackery completely, as private practice medical doctors in other states have been. Reeder, however, works for corporate medicine, which looks at dollar signs more than anything else. The other force working against common sense has been the nest of homosexual supporters within Speaker Tim Moore's own office, who wanted to water down this bill as much as they could. This group is led by Moore's deputy chief of staff who is also a leader of North Caorlina's main Gaystapo group, Equality North Carolina. These people wanted to take the drug restrictions out completely and did so in their crooked backroom "committee substitute". There was enough backlash, they had to restore it by a floor amendment on the portion of this travesty that least impacted the bottom line of corporate medicine, so it was restricted to the state funding part. Tim Moore was in the thick of efforts to water down this legislation. Hopefully, the senate will add these provisions back, but the threat to solid leiglation there comes from another water boy for corporate medicine, RINO Senator Jim Perry. As it stands now, unscrupulous quack doctors in North Carolina will still, under this bill, be able to administer the very same drug used for chemical castration of rapists to gender confused young boys and drugs that often cause sterility to both young boys and young girls. In short, this bill allows what is really monstrous child abuse by unprincipled doctors in our state.

Commented on Transfuture shockNo, what is misleading is to say they "exist". The reality according to European experts is that most gender confused children, about 85%, naturally grow out of it. That is why the British National Health Service now advises their doctors not to even suggest new names or pronouns for these confused children, much less surgery or drugs. The American left wants to "fix" them in a state that they would likely grow out of naturally. What the American left is pushing is simply child abuse.

Big Government Bob once again displays either his ignorence or his shooting from the hip without knowing what he is talking about. Hillsdale College was founded by abolitionists and has admitted black students since it was founded in 1844. That was a time that many northern states had "Black Codes" that were far more draconian in stripping black people of their rights than the later Jim Crow laws. In spite of those Black Codes, Hillsdale took a stand and admitted black students. "KKK" "white supremacy" Nonsense! You are an uninformed blowhard, Big Government Bob.
