FALLS CHURCH, Va. (AP) — A Virginia Senate committee has killed two key pieces of education legislation sought by Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin, including one that was designed to eliminate teaching of critical race theory in K-12 schools.

The committee on Thursday also killed a bill that would have made it easier to create charter schools in parts of the state.

If, as they claim, that CRT does not exist then WHY do they care if Youngkin wants to eliminate it? According to them it does not exist.

They usually claim that CRT is not taught in schools but that bills like this would have a chilling effect on any discussion of racial issues at all, because people would claim discussion of racial issues was CRT and file lawsuits.

CRT may not be taught as such in schools but it certainly shapes the curriculum and the minds of many teachers.

Leftist democrats lie...and so do all those who vote for them. Democrats of all sorts are simply not trustworthy.

...and so far Democrats on the Education and Health Committee have blocked his legislation from moving forward.

I would not call them Democrats.

Gov. Youngkin has a pen and a phone. Use it to exec order the agenda over the Stalinazis holding the State Senate hostage.

“I would not call them Democrats”.

Last year, I called them Bolsheviks.

Regardless of which moniker we use, they are not Americans. That being said, it is time to recall some of these traitors.

Democrats don’t care about blacks. They’re controlled by the Teachers Union.

..."We are not just going to be waiting for legislation in order to make sure that we're providing Americans the kind of help that they need. I've got a pen, and I've got a phone. And I can use that pen to sign executive orders and take executive actions and administrative actions that move the ball forward..."

The Gov. should follow the Kenyan usurper's plan.

Changing a state requires working at multiple levels.

It starts with the local village council, the county board, the schoolboard and the elected county sheriff. Once the county municipal governments are under control, the control of the state legislature becomes easier.

This will not end well for the D’s... but they have two more years to play their games.

It’s OK we have a number of other tools to turn the screws on anyone who practices CRT in Virginia.

Here’s an early heads up that PWC is going to be a very exciting watch in the days to come.
