Aimee Rogstad Guidera, Youngkin’s education secretary pick, is deeply tied to the education swamp on almost every issue.
You told it like it is. The sheep should have fought in 2020 instead of listening to the Judas Goats. But they will find out for themselves soon enough.
We don't use Dominion. The sources of cheating are the dirty voter rolls, endless early voting, eliminating ID, and counting fraud (not algorithms) Our main problems in Virginia are feds, immigrants of certain types, and other imports from blue states.
To sweep all that fraud under the rug and ignore demographics is pretty much an algorithm game usually played by people who don't know a thing about algorithms designed to discredit any legitimate investigation into the fraud.
It's not necessarily for Virginia. They need a real election, with a weak candidate on both sides (weak democrat in trouble vs. weak republicant who will be a weak republicant like they always are) to see what a battleground / purple state will do.

I'm not discrediting that, either. I know that is the case. It takes all of that to win. That's how Murphy won. Youngkin will not do a damn thing about any of that, which is why he was allowed to win. He's harmless. And his new Education Secretary is more proof he is a Trojan horse's ass.
Aimee’s pic won’t post but she is an early 40’s, attractive, redhead and mom with two daughters and a husband named Bill.
Her partial bio below imparts NOTHING, as far as I can tell, that would encourage conservatives and seems written to obfuscate not inform. Public Schools in cities that are in Blue States are a fraud upon the American Public and should be CLOSED immediately on an emergency basis as they have become a cauldron of child abuse.

FOUNDER, FORMER PRESIDENT & CEO, DATA QUALITY CAMPAIGN
Aimee Guidera
Aimee Rogstad Guidera is the former President and CEO of the Data Quality Campaign (DQC), a national, nonprofit organization leading the effort to empower educators, students, parents, and policymakers with the information they need to make the best decisions to improve student outcomes. Aimee believes that data have the power to transform education to ensure every child in this country is prepared for success in college and careers. Since it launched in 2005, the education and policy fields have come to rely on DQC’s research and landscape analyses as the only source of information that captures the “state of the states” on effective data use—first with the 10 Essential Elements of Statewide Longitudinal Data Systems, and then with the 10 State Actions to Ensure Effective Data Use. Aimee continues to advocate for better access to and use of data so that educators, parents, and policymakers will have the insights they need to inform better decisions to support student achievement. A respected thought leader in education, Aimee was named one of TIME’s 12 Education Activists of 2012. She has also been cited as an expert on education policy and the value of education data by publications such as Business Week, NPR, and Education Week. Aimee is a Pahara-Aspen Education Fellow and an alumna of the Institute for Educational Leadership’s Education Policy Fellowship Program. She serves on the board of directors of the Institute for Educational Leadership and the Friends of the Hennepin County (Minnesota) Library. Before founding DQC, Aimee served as the director of the Washington, DC, office of the National Center for Educational Achievement. She previously served as vice president of programs for the National Alliance of Business (NAB), worked in the education division of the National Governors Association’s Center for Best Practices, and taught for the Japanese Ministry of Education. Aimee received her bachelor’s degree from Princeton University’s Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs and earned a master’s degree in public policy from Harvard’s John F. Kennedy School of Government. Aimee and her husband, Bill, are the parents of two school-age daughters. She is an active supporter of her daughters’ public schools and has served as a classroom volunteer, parentteacher organization leader, and advisory committee member. Aimee believes that parents, students, and teachers need to be equally strong legs of the stool of academic success.

She also currently sits on a advisory board at Harvard. If that doesn’t scream conservative Republican nothing does.
>> Who’s the governor? Who signs the paycheck? <<
When Ronald Reagan said, “Personnel is policy,” he wasn’t being stupid. If you think that the governor is going to personally approve everything — or even just about anything — the Secretary of Education does, you have not one clue why the office of the Secretary of Education exists.
I'll take harmless over detrimental any day. I'd pin my hopes (if any) on stopping. the green boondoggles that will drive up our energy prices. He said he would delay the gas tax for a year. That's not much but he better at least do that. Second, we don't need "clean energy" in 2030 as McAwful promised or in 2050 as the current law states. He said the 2050 law would be give us California prices and unreliability.
Is anyone familiar with the recall process in Virginia? Virginians need to be ready to move into recall mode the minute Youngkin starts breaking his promises.
There is a theoretical recall in Virginia, but by circuit courts rather than elections. It’s not even clear such could apply to a governor.
Recall is a western states thing. Practically, it is impossible in Virginia.
......so your thinking is that she is a conservative based upon a degree from Harvard and being on an advisory board at Harvard?
That’s a shame.
Glenn Youngkin caught lightning in a bottle.
He’s certainly not Our Guy.
So you say.
Knowing NOTHING. About me.
Funny.
What a DUMB thing to say.
New Hampshire?
No. Glenn is not “your guy”.
I remember when "W" was the second coming here on FR.
So business as usual is O.K. with you? A candidate is elected soley on the basis of two or three core promises to the voters and then renegues on day one, and you’re fine with that? How about you give an explanation on why you disagree rather than throwing out empty insults. Is is too hard for you to string together a few intelligent arguments?
Use your brain.
Buy a TB.
Take it to the track.
Watch it perform.
Then place your bet.
I write in simple sentences so that simple people can comprehend.
Look at this thread. How many people jumped on Youngkin days before he was even inaugurated.
“Wait and see.” That’s been my message from the beginning.
Make a note, Mike. Get back to me in three months. Let me know how it works out.
“You have one job: provide education for the children ... with the best degree of academic excellence possible”
News re. Yonngkin’s administration (as soon as it actually started) is good and getting BETTER every day!
