A conservative Harris County parents group reported that a left-leaning group published the social media content of high school students who are organizing a Turning Point USA(TPUSA) chapter in the Spring Branch school district. The leftist group, “Be the Change SBISD,” reportedly sent messages to its more than 700 members calling for action against sponsoring teachers and the students. The Harris County chapter of Moms for Liberty posted a report on social media saying that a “TPUSA Club America” high school chapter’s members were “DOXXED” by adults by publishing their social media content to their members in an apparent attempt...

The FBI has released internal records on Moms for Liberty, the non-profit activist group that opposes the public-school system’s attempts to indoctrinate students to favor genital mutilations, mask mandates, racial profiling and other un-American ideals. However, the internal records are unrelated to the Justice Department’s targeting of Moms for Liberty and other protesting parents—a scandal from October 2021, when Attorney General Merrick Garland issued a memo directing the FBI to divert counterterrorism resources towards tracking alleged threats at school board meetings. Instead, the records detail threats Moms for Liberty members apparently received in 2022. A December 2022 FBI memo details...

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — New federal court rulings are narrowing the Biden administration’s enforcement of a rule for protecting LGBTQ+ students from discrimination and allowing critics to limit it even further school by school. A federal judge in Missouri blocked enforcement of the rule in six additional states, bringing the total to 21. The decision Wednesday from Senior U.S. District Judge Rodney Sipple, an appointee of President Bill Clinton, applies in Arkansas, Iowa, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota and South Dakota. It comes just a week before the rule is to take effect.... The various federal judges’ rulings block the rule...

The Department of Justice saw fit to monitor the goings on within the group "Moms for Liberty," a grassroots organization designed to protect children and schools from radical leftist, especially when it came to matters of sex and LGBT indoctrination. According to the Daily Wire, the DOJ’s Community Relations Service (CRS) tracked the group alongside actual hate groups such as the Ku Klux Klan, as internal documents show. The emails that detail the DOJ's monitoring of Moms for Liberty were revealed thanks to a FOIA request from America First Legal on behalf of the Daily Wire. The CRS is tasked...

Let's start here with the bad news. The legacy media is every bit as manipulative and deceptive as you know they are. We already were aware of that, but Sunday night's 60 Minutes segment about 'banning books' in America put the problem in stark relief once again. But here's the good news. Conservatives are onto the game, and they know the corporate media cannot be trusted as far as you could kick them. So, when Moms For Liberty founders Tiffany Justice and Tina Descovich agreed to appear on 60 Minutes to talk about the problem of gender ideology in schools,...

Are parents who are concerned for their children’s education “haters”? Are they bigots? Do they deserve to be treated as “domestic terrorists”? The answer to all of these questions should be, “No.” But lately, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), a group that claims to be the last word in who are haters and hate groups in America, has now added Moms for Liberty to their infamous “map of hate.”

The Republican Party of Florida suspended Chairman Christian Ziegler and demanded his resignation during an emergency meeting Sunday, adding to calls by Gov. Ron DeSantis and other top officials for him to step down as police investigate a rape accusation against him. Ziegler is accused of raping a woman with whom he and his wife, Moms for Liberty co-founder Bridget Ziegler, had a prior consensual sexual relationship, according to police records. “Christian Ziegler has engaged in conduct that renders him unfit for the office,” the party’s motion to censure Ziegler said, according to a document posted on the social media...

On Saturday, parental rights group Moms for Liberty posted pictures of a package they received in the mail which contained letters that students from a Seattle Middle school allegedly made in class, claiming that the organization was “bullying” LGBTQ youth. The package had a return address of SPS (Seattle Public Schools) and JSCEE (John Sanford Center for Educational Excellence), the headquarters of the district. In the package were cards that appeared to be drawn by children, directly calling out the organization with phrases such as “Say Gay,” “Gay is slay, stop being a rat” and “stop bullying and excluding LGBTQ...

Star Trek actor LeVar Burton threatens VIOLENCE against parental rights group Moms for Liberty “Moms for Liberty? No? Good. Then hands will not need to be thrown tonight.” The 66-year-old actor also discussed the group during a recent interview with Esquire, rejoicing that “hardly any candidates backed by Moms for Liberty won their races” during the 2023 election cycle. He added, “These are people who would rather children not know the truth. Those kids will never know what they’re missing, but it’s our job to stand up for them, to be their voices and their advocates. That’s what being an...

Although most people think of Charleston, South Carolina, as a charming historic city (it is one of the world’s top vacation destinations), it was also one of the pivotal players in the American Revolution. Now, to the extent that we’re seeing a second American Revolution playing out, one that centers around the left’s desire to control and destroy our children, South Carolina is again playing a role. I wrote before about the school board battle and Moms for Liberty. This time, the war involves the mayoral battle and…Moms for Liberty. Moms for Liberty, as you know, has a very simple...

Moms for Liberty has, in recent years, been a major player in America’s culture wars. The group has been behind the drastic increase in book ban attempts across the country, influenced local leaders to implement anti-LGBTQ+ policies, and railed against educators and others in communities, smearing them as child abusers. In 2023, Moms for Liberty held its annual convention in Pennsylvania, sparking widespread protests. Now it has set its sights on the state’s many school boards. There are 500 different districts spread over Pennsylvania’s 67 counties, and ahead of next week’s elections in the state, HuffPost found that Moms for...

A brilliant strategy, rooted in both common sense and law, has resulted in a victory for both decency and parental rights. Moms for Liberty, a conservative group dedicated to defending parents and students against government overreach, capitalized on a new Florida statute and compelled a school board to bypass its own procedures by voting immediately to remove obscene literature from school libraries. The group’s strategy unfolded in a dramatic way at a school board meeting on Monday in Indian River County, Florida. According to WEAR-TV in Pensacola, Florida, parents and others affiliated with Moms for Liberty selected books from the...

It looks like these authoritarian leftists are getting quite desperate. Only a month after the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) falsely labeled Moms for Liberty as a hate group, folks on the hard left are now trying to weaponize the IRS against the parental rights advocacy group.This is the latest in the ongoing conflict between right and left over the school system. The attorney filing the complaint is hoping to have Moms for Liberty stripped of its 501(c)4 non-profit status, which would make it harder for the organization to raise funds.A Michigan attorney has confirmed she filed an Internal Revenue...

LGBTQ+ protestors who recently attended a Ron DeSantis presidential event claim they were physically abused by staff and attendees for holding up a rainbow flag during the speech. The governor has been viewed by many as the Republicans' culture war candidate, due to various anti-LGBTQ legislation pertaining to K-12 education, book bans and his public spats with Disney that have resulted in litigation. Protesting turning into violence is not entirely uncommon at campaign events. One protester was purportedly punched and kicked at a Donald Trump rally in 2016 before being escorted out, according to NBC News. However, research by the...

The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) recently added two grassroots groups, Moms for Liberty and Parents Defending Education, to its “hate map,” labeling them “antigovernment” for daring to disagree with the SPLC’s political beliefs. In their Wall Street Journal op-ed condemning their inclusion on the list, Moms for Liberty founders Tiffany Justice and Tina Descovich say they were targeted because SPLC wants them to “sit down and shut up.” They are right. Labels like “antigovernment,” “radical,” and “domestic extremist” are increasingly weaponized against ideological adversaries. Instead of debating the merits of ideas, it is easier to tar and feather speakers....

A Democrat state representative in New Hampshire called members of Moms for Liberty "a--holes" and compared them to terrorists, as the up-and-coming parental rights group rises in influence. "A--holes with casseroles, taliban in minivan," state Rep. Catherine Sofikitis said in a charged Twitter post about the group Sunday, garnering dozens of quote tweets condemning the tweet. Sofikitis, who was first elected to the state House of Representatives in 2016, received backlash from the New Hampshire Republican Party for the tweet, calling the comments "disgusting." "The saddest part is that they seem to reflect the Democrat Party's disdain for parents who...
