Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona said on Friday that he does not "respect" people who are "misbehaving in public and acting like they know what’s right for kids."
Cardona gave a video interview with the Associated Press discussing the state of education in the U.S., including the recent Supreme Court decisions on race-based admissions and President Biden’s attempt to relieve student debt.
Cardona was also prompted to address his past comments saying that public education was "under attack."
"I wonder whether this is something other education secretaries have had to grapple with," AP reporter Collin Binkley asked Cardona.
"I [sic] been in education, you know, about 25 years. Not including the time I was in higher ed as a student. I’ve never seen it where it is now," Cardona replied.
The education secretary explained further that while he doesn’t have a problem with differences of opinion, and it was possible to discuss things in the past, he doesn’t "respect" people who he claims behave badly in public.
"There was civility. We could disagree. We could have healthy conversations around what’s best for kids," he said. "I respect differences of opinion. I don’t have too much respect for people that are misbehaving in public and then acting like they know what’s right for kids."
Cardona went on to say, "Or people that have a problem when we're trying to provide some support for those who are buried in debt complain about a 10 thousand dollar support for thousands of their constituents but are Ok taking over a million dollars in loan forgiveness themselves as an elected official."
"That hypocrisy--I want to call it out at the top of this conversation because there is a team that is fighting for kids and a team that is fighting against kids."

Thanks—and brutally content free but disgusting at the same time.
Perfect for the admin of the current puppet occupant.
“”There was civility. We could disagree. We could have healthy conversations around what’s best for kids,””
Bullcrap. This pervert wants a quiet civil discussion about whether or not to take an innocent 5 or 6 year old and show them drawings of blowjobs and doing each other in the azz. They want them raped in restrooms and teach them to lie to their parents.
Courts have repeatedly ruled that public comment cannot be stopped even if comments are “rude, disrespectful, or personal speech about government officials or government actions,” and while civility can be encouraged, it cannot be required.
Demands to be civil to the School Board perverts are illegitimate.
There might be a smattering of truth to the statement...
After all, with full knowledge of the insidious nature of the government indoctrination centers, they committed their offspring to them anyways...
