VP Harris on DeSantis: Any Push to Censor America’s Teachers ‘Wrongheaded’
Breitbart ^ | 02-17-2023 | Pam Key

Posted on 02/17/2023 10:58:11 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Vice President Kamala Harris said Friday on MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports” that she believes it is “wrongheaded” for Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) to “censor” what is taught in Florida schools.

Mitchell asked, “Let me ask you, what does Governor Ron DeSantis not know about black history and the black experience when he says that slavery and the aftermath of slavery should not be taught to Florida schoolchildren?”

Harris said, “I don’t know what he knows and what he doesn’t know, but I know this, any push to censor America’s teachers and tell them what they should be teaching in the best interest of our children in partnership with the parents of America, is I think, wrongheaded.”

For whom does she think American “teachers” work?

The same article will appear in 3023.

There is no time limit when the hussle keeps paying off.

It's not what he "does not know", it's what he DOES know.

Forgive me, but where and when has DeSantis said that he does not want slavery and the aftermath of slavery to be taught?

the liberal motto now is “Can’t question anything, no matter how vile or disgusting”- Sorry Harris- we don’t play that game! Wrong is wrong! And teachers should be held accountable through lawsuits and loss of jobs if they keep teaching bad crap in schools- Kids are there to learn the fundamentals- NOT to hear about a teacher’s deviant disgusting sexual practices, or racist CRT

Yeah, karamel toe? You talking about the Communist Teacher’s Union that pushes this agenda... and comes to the White House events, the President and her fag girlfriend with green hair? This is an Agenda... not “teaching”.

And Harris is a pervo stonehead dumba@@ of the first order. Vegetable verbage in a tossed salad of unfathomable meaning.

And... karamella it is NOT with the participation or approval of the children’s parents. Which is why the immense pushback of the parents through their elected officials... and NOT through...you! Burn another bong full of the shite you are smoking.

Unless they’re promoting capitalism or pro-American Christian values.

Then they need to be banned for diversity - right Kammie?

She spent so much in Canada in her early years. Did she happen to learn the why of English being spoken there at all?
The history of English language usage is racist in Canada or so I’ve been told.

Any censoring of teachers is wrong headed?

Well then why do Democrats pressure social media companies to censor everyone who questions the sacred cows of the Left? I am not aware of any special exemption for teachers in this censorship that the Democrats are very much in favor of pushing.

On the other hand, if somebody hires me to read a commercial for the product would we call it "censoring" and think it bad for the people to tell me what I am to say about their product as a condition of my employment? It is up to the employer to determine what I say on behalf of a company. In the same way a teacher in a private school should teach the curriculum the school gives them to teach and if they instead want to be sexually explicit to small children in their teaching in a way that would make parents angry, for goodness sake it is no violation of their right to speech for this to be banned. They can groom kids on their own hours. A public school of course is like a private school that tax payers are forced to pay for. Why can't we demand that they refrain from teaching our kids sexually explicit stuff when our kids are too young--since we are paying for the teaching? Don't care what the teacher does in their own time, just keep it away from the kids.

Harris should be careful about picking a fight with DeSantis.

There was a notable difference in intellect between Pence & Harris during the VP debate, a debate that was unfavorable for Harris.

The Florida Governor is a much stronger fighter & champion than Pence.

She is an idiot from a foreign culture. Indian and raised in Canada.

US Teachers have always been censored. There has never been a time when teachers were free to expose pupils to porn, homosexual porn, and body mutilation. Never....

It has to be codified today, but that “freedom” has never existed.

Now go put your kneepads back on.

wtf is this idiot rambling about? Yes teacher can be censored. They have a set curriculum on their chosen subjects and a responsibility to stick to facts. If they veer into browbeating students with opinionated garbage then yes, they shall be censored.
