First off, credit to Chuck Ross who noticed this had been released and started tweeting about it. As you may recall, the National School Board Association (NSBA) sent a letter to White House last September which asked for a review of threats against school board members and which suggested the Patriot Act could be used against parents who were compared to domestic terrorists. Days later AG Merrick Garland issued a response which didn’t mention the Patriot Act but did say the FBI would be checking in with school boards around the country.
But as word of the original letter spread people were outraged. By the end of October, the NSBA had apologized for “some of the language” in the letter. But the apology was too little, too late. Within days five state school board associations had withdrawn from the NSBA. By December the number of state associations leaving the national organization reached seventeen. That represented about 40% of the NSBA’s annual dues. By January the number had climbed to 19 and the Washington Post reported the NSBA was on the verge of a total collapse.
Meanwhile, in an attempt to help them understand what had gone wrong the NSBA hired an outside law firm to write a report about what went wrong. That’s the 55 page report that was released today.
The first takeaway is a confirmation of something we learned last year. The letter was arranged by Chip Slaven, the interim CEO of the NSBA at the time. However, the White House, in the form of White House Senior Adviser Mary Wall, was heavily consulted about the letter during its drafting.

It is time for separation of school and state.
+1! Well said.
I’d settle for:
separation of school and FedGov; and
real (instead of fake or feigned) separation of school and any and every teacher’s association that wants to broaden its slice of the pie at the expense of students and their parents.
Have public schools outlived their purpose?

Not if their purpose is to promote
Marxism and pedosexualism.
AND
Provide fetus’ to abort for profit
Provide surgery patients for the trans doctors for profit
Provide mental patients for mental health professionals for profit
Churn out drugged confused agitated God hateing Marxists to commit mass shootings for the Mao Stream Media to use for distraction and profit.
But other than that ,,,,
.
Not if their purpose is to train children to embrace cradle to grave government, and to groom children for homosexual exploitation.
In which case the public schools are thriving.
The Cheatin , election fraud Dem party is at war with America , at war with the Constitution, so should this school board domestic terrorist crappola surprise you?
VOTE THESE BA$TARDS OUT in November
I TREASURE the one room school education I got.
The closest term to Biden Administration politically correct "domestic terrorism" term in the Constitution is "domestic violence" found in Article IV, Section 4 imo. And that section is a big problem for Biden Administration's so-called domestic terrorism imo.
"Article IV, Section 4: The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence [emphases added]."
More specifically, the delegates to the Con-Con didn't want the untrusted federal government dreaming up just any excuse to stick its big, unwanted nose in the affairs of the sovereign states. So the delegates made Section 4 to require federal government to stand down to actual INTRAstate domestic violence, unless elected state government leaders formally request assistance from the feds to deal with such violence.
In fact, Justice Joseph Story had explained Section 4 this way.
”§ 1819. It may not be amiss further to observe, (in the language of another commentator,) that every pretext for intermeddling with the domestic concerns of any state, under colour of protecting it against domestic violence, is taken away by that part of the provision, which renders an application from the legislature, or executive authority of the state endangered necessary to be made to the general government, before its interference can be at all proper [emphasis added]. On the other hand, this article becomes an immense acquisition of strength, and additional force to the aid of any state government, in case of an internal rebellion, or insurrection against its authority. The southern states, being more peculiarly open to danger from this quarter, ought (he adds) to be particularly tenacious of a constitution, from which they may derive such assistance in the most critical periods.” —Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution, Article 4, Section 4.
In other words, if Trump Administration had likewise unfairly demonized parents by claiming possible violence from parents as excuse to stick its big nose into state affairs, then desperate Democratic-controlled Congress would actually have a good case to impeach Trump under Section 4 imo. (This is not saying that the post-17th Amendment ratification Senate, divided by corrupt, constitutionally undefined political parties would find necessary 2/3 majority votes to remove him from office as was the case with his mock impeachments by Democrats.)
Corrections, insights welcome.
Too late...
It has been too late since the 1960's & 1970s when the Nation's world-acclaimed public education system was abolished...
There is absolutely no strategy or tactics that will change this disaster...
This cancerous government-indoctrination replacement system, controlled and operated by the communists, has, long since, fully metastasized...
Only heroic surgery will remove the disease from the Nation's body...
Ditto.
The more kids you put in one place, the more problems there are.
My cynicism leads me to believe White House Senior Adviser Mary Wall
wrote the whole thing and Chip Slaven is getting the credit for writing it.
JMO, YMMV
