A Caldwell, Idaho school board meeting devolved into chaos Monday after a member cut the mic of newly-elected Republican State Senator Chris Trakel who was passionately speaking against a proposed policy that would allow transgender students into girls’ bathrooms and locker rooms.

The arrogance of these people is breathtaking... hope they are recalled!
Good for him.
Will he have guts enough to propose defunding them?
Why can’t a small town easily recall and/or replace school board clowns in the voting booth?
Idaho of all places. The rot stretches far and wide, but THEY VOTED THESE PEOPLE IN....Canyon county residents, you voted these people into office.
Ida Ho used to be a reliable red “nazi” state before the locust invasion of California destroyed everything in its path…especially the sun valley region, though they have also ripped their mandibles and claws into Coeur D’Alene as well especially with Seattle refugees who were previously california refugees before they wrecked seattle
The Dems know THEY can’t get elected, so they register as Republicans, they talk like conservatives, & then they do what they do. These people do need to be recalled.
The left’s strategy is to refuse to debate conservatives.
If the school board is in violation of state law requiring half its members to be parents, then go to court to have the school board declared illegal and void.
Why are you so certain that they did indeed vote for this?
The media has come to the school board’s rescue. The Idaho Statesman described Trakel’s behavior as “deplorable”. The Deep State board members knew that their policies are extremely unpopular. Five officers from Caldwell Police Department came to the school board meeting. Have school board meetings always required a police presence?
Good to see Republicans getting assertive for a change.
Tar and feathers.
A Lot of people that are running for public office lie in order to get elected. Now it is the job of the voters to bring a reckoning to the liars.
Why can’t a small town easily recall and/or replace school board clowns in the voting booth?
Best Question.
I suppose a district school board election falls on a county ballot?
School Board Nazis!
If you think that’s much, if your government agencies of the state and federal government had to hold open meetings with the public, they would use teargas and beanbag shotguns on the public.
“Will he have guts enough to propose defunding them?”
It wouldn’t make any difference if the school board was defunded. No school board members in the schools in Idaho can be help liable in court for actions they take concerning the boards actions. So the responsibilities of complaint, to include court action, falls to the board of trustees for the state. And the people you saw on the video are not responsible for the actions of the board they govern that are questioned.
They should be nailed to the cross for handling it the way they did, and since they are not being paid, and are not employees of the district, they should be relieved or court actions will follow.
