Virginia PTA Moves To Eliminate School’s Parent Group After Anti-Critical Race Theory Candidates Elected

[Harry Mathews]

[EAN NOTE: KNOW THIS: Your public schools ARE the Deep State. The teachers, administrators, and countless government contrators that swarm around the schools like so many blood sucking mosquitos, are not fit to be any where near your children. They despise parents and their goal is to take everything away from you that they possibly can; including you money, your freedom and ESPECIALLY your children.
