The teachers unions lobbied Rachel Walensky to let teachers give Zoom "classes" from vacation spots so that children could suffer the worst educational decline in history: math and reading scores for 13-year-olds hit lowest levels in decades.
The NYT rats out their teachers union co-conspirators:
The federal standardized test, known as NAEP, was given last fall, and focused on basic skills. The 13-year-olds scored an average of 256 out of 500 in reading, and 271 out of 500 in math, down from average scores of 260 in reading and 280 in math three years ago.
Achievement declined across lines of race, class and geography. But in math, especially, vulnerable children -- including Black, Native American and low-income students -- experienced bigger drops. ...
The last time math performance was this low for 13-year-olds was in 1990. In reading, 2004.
Gay extremists have a constitutional right to free access to your children's minds and bodies:
A Democrat witness swore to Congress that it's just not true that any male professional tennis player could beat Serena or Venus Williams -- why, men couldn't even score a point on them!
Riley Gaines, also testifying, then pointed out that both Serena and Venus Williams lost to the 203rd-ranked male tennis player. If I remember right, the man won every single game, except for one. So like 6-0, 6-0, 6-1.
But other than that, the Democrat witness and trans cultist was 100% accurate in its sworn Congressional testimony.

Lunatic Rebekah Jones, who has been fired with cause from just about every job she's had, and who has been unemployed for three years after a failed career as a DeSantis Stalker, sits in her hovel's closet and brags about all the two degrees she's earned, which makes her a Scientist whose mentally-ill claims are not to be challenged.

David French: I almost joined a cult... for love.
Almost, cvck?
Does a Swingers Club count as a cult or is that just a social thing?
In the summer of 1993, I almost joined a cult. For love.
David French was born in December, 1969. In 1993, he was twenty four years old.
This isn't a high school kid joining a cult "for love." This is a full-grown man, graduated from college, and presumably now in law school.
And this emotional basket-case almost joins a cult for love.
The next time you feel the gales of David French's hurt feelings blowing across the internet, remember, he's admitting to you that he's an emotionally-damaged manbaby.
It was the same cult featured in the current most-watched show on Amazon Prime, a documentary series called "Shiny Happy People."
This is the cult that the Duggers were in. You know, they had that son that committed sex crimes.
I'm going to address the issue of abuse below, but I also want to focus on a different question: Why are otherwise good, solid people attracted to movements like Gothard's? How can they not see its controlling darkness?
My own story isn't uncommon. If you lived in evangelical America in the 1980s and 1990s, you'd often encounter men and women who were deeply influenced by Gothard. When I was 24 years old, I was engaged to a woman I'd been dating for two years. She and her family followed Gothard's teachings and attended events
sponsored by the Institute in Basic Life Principles. She told me that she couldn't marry a man who hadn't attended its introductory course, the Basic Seminar. Just as important, as it happened, her father said he would not allow his daughter to marry anyone who refused to attend the seminar.
So I said yes.
Pastor French uses his New York Times column to bash Christians, as usual, and then offers this incredible observation:
The Apostle Paul stated a universal human truth when he declared that "we see through a glass, darkly." We can know things only "in part." The Gothard movement and movements like it reject that sense of doubt. They purport to reveal all the deepest truths and answer all our most difficult questions. Yet no person possesses such wisdom. And if there is one lesson we should take from "Shiny Happy People," it's this: When people claim to personally light the path and clear away the darkness, you know they are leading you astray.
Pastor French sets himself up as an absolute Moral Authority and indisputable church elder every week.
The Holy Spirit just emailed me: "This guy, huh? Are you kiddin' me with this?"
Finally, morbidly obese satanic pervert Sam Smith "identifies as svelte" for purposes of jumping into the crowd, expecting to crowd surf.
The fact that he apparently identifies as a normal-weight man does not seem to bend physical reality to his will. Turn your sound up!
