Supposed moderate Frederick City candidates Tom Trott, Joe Adkins, and Rob Callahan have no trouble accepting canvassing help from the extreme right wing Orange ballot folks. Remember that when it comes time to vote city residents!

Moms For Liberty is trying to keep it a secret that they want to dismantle Policy 443 and push through the opt out policies, y’all know what to do. What kind of elected official tries to keep the public out? Not a very good one.See the link below to sign up to speak.

Well, well, well. “Peaceful innocent people” are showing their whole ass. Kirby is no better than that lunatic who left a threatening note against all Democrats on that family’s porch because they had Biden-Harris signs in the yard. What a terrible human being. It’s a shame the FBI is now a full blown clown show.

Perpetual school board candidate, Cindy Rose, is encouraging people to report FCPS teachers who may have expresssed anything other than grief over the murder of Charlie Kirk. Notice that two current school board members liked the post. I wonder if they would retroactively agree with going back and reporting anyone who celebrated the attack on Paul Pelosi or the shooting of the two Minnesota legislators and their spouses. (That’s a rhetorical question we already know the answer. ) This kind of stuff is dangerous, and along with the firing of Jimmy Kimmel last night, should really give you pause. The supposed Constitution/ 1st Amendment crowd is showing us that their beliefs are very situational.

For today’s “rhyming with history” lesson we bring to you a 1920 pamphlet entitled “A Measuring Rod” that was distributed and used by schools and libraries to promote the Lost Cause narrative of the Civil War. A very discredited interpretation that many of these conversative groups are trying to take us back to. Be aware of words like “transparency” and “ back-to-basics” as they are dog whistles for trying to erase peoples experiences not only from our past, but also our present. https://archive.org/details/measuringrodtot00ruth/mode/2up?g

Round and round and round we go, where it stops nobody knows! We've been taking a bit of a hiatus around here, because there is just too much going on in the world and sometimes it gets, well, a bit heavy. If you don't follow Humans of New York, please take a minute to read this because we've never so identified with a Facebook post before....

This is a cautionary tale that Frederick County would benefit from considering. Truly a must read. "In 2015, the kind of language Blasingame used—calling her candidacy part of the ”pathway of establishing His Glory”—likely still came off as too fringe for a large suburban district like Cy-Fair. Prominent New Apostolic Reformation figures like Lance Wallnau and Cindy Jacobs had yet to normalize Seven Mountains ideas in political circles by identifying Donald Trump as God’s chosen tool to take the mountain of government. It would take three election cycles before Blasingame won a seat on the Cy-Fair board."

Cy-Fair ISD’s school board banned books and stripped vaccine curriculum. Now, a group of parents are running to make the school board boring again.

Excerpt: Black said in an interview on Thursday that he supports Porter’s rights and anyone else’s right to “redress grievance with government under the First Amendment.”

He said he laughed when Porter pulled his shorts down because he found Porter’s freedom of expression “rather amusing.”

“I found his particular antics humorous and within reason under the First Amendment,” Black said. “I think it’s wonderful that individuals have that right in our country.”

Shaun Porter, a confrontational activist, walked up to the Frederick County Board of Education dais at a meeting on Wednesday, turned around so that his butt faced them and pulled
