I have come to realize that this country was in an even more dangerous and dire state than I had thought possible. Nov. 8th wasn’t the 11th hour, it was truly 5 minutes to midnight.

I am extremely happy Elton john will NOT be in the inaugural ceremonies. SIR Elton was easy to replace and already has been.

The divisions in this country are just growing deeper and deeper.

How long before some sort of organized violence?

The Democrat/Commies are determined that they will rule us or they will completely disrupt every aspect of civilized society.

I wonder if there was a big news story when they didn’t perform at Bill Clinton’s 2nd inaugural in 1996? The story said its been 20 years.

I am sure other bands from actual states will be honored to play. Screw you district! Flyover county does not give a wit!

Call me when you are out of frozen food so I can laugh!

“It’s the kids’ loss of a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to attend a presidential inauguration. Of course, that won’t matter to the leftist school officials who decide for the kids.”

And that’s the way it is.

No marching bands of yutes? That does it - I’m definitely not going to the inauguration now. I might not even watch it on tv.

So? Just makes room for another band somewhere that would LOVE to have the honor of marching in an inaugural parade.

That’s what you would expect from a town that votes for a druggie mayor over and over again. I do hope trump does something about the creepy neighborhoods in DC. They could level them and start all over.

DC Public Schools spokeswoman receives backlash over social media posts
Fox 5 DC ^ | 12/14/16 | Staff

Public backlash is being aimed at DC Public Schools Spokeswoman, Hilary Tone, over one of her tweets about her desire to ‘abolish’ all white men.

On Tone’s personal twitter account @HToneTastic, the schools spokesperson quoted a news story about former Texas Governor Rick Perry being named as Donald Trump’s energy secretary, department Perry said he’d eliminate back in 2012. She commented “In that case I’d like to be Secretary of White Men.”

This is how bad the Marsixt Left has destroyed love of country in America’s public education. It will be a long climb out of the hole they have placed our children.

We should have learned about this earlier so we could vent our total dissatisfaction to the school leadership who has allowed this disgraceful disrespect.
