Teachers' unions are not experts. Teachers unions are out to promote themselves--not the teachers and not the schools, and definitely not the students.

Where were you teaching? Which teacher union was it?

Because no one cares. It’s not like some crime was committed or there was an attempted overthrow of the election like on Jan 6, this was just a peaceful political demonstration. Right-wingers are wound up about it but most people don’t care because they’re not that interested in politics.


No one cares? According to whom, you? You’re the spokesperson for “most people”?

This liberal Virginia certainly does care and am disgusted. Sounds like plenty of people in Charlottesville did as well. This is so distasteful and so is your brushing it off as NBD.

Dirty politics as usual. I don’t understand why Jennifer McCellan wasn’t good enough for the Virginia Democratic Party and why Terry had to come back to “be our savior”. Ridiculous. This stunt is so sleazy and gross.

Oh yeah? Where do you teach? In a public school system, or some kind of unaccredited bible-thumper private? I’m betting the latter based on your absurd post. It reads like typical anti-union trash talking points.


Union teachers are the only bulwark standing between society and the brainwashed spawn being raised and indoctrinated by their rightwing loon parents. If it weren’t for public school teachers offsetting all these idiot parents and their lunacy, we’d be up to our eyeballs in school age little fascists. Teachers are typically the only people exposing these kids to Progressive ideals and questioning the nonsense these children are being fed at home.


Assuming you aren't a troll, you are part of the problem. Many parents don't want teachers indoctrinating/pushing political ideologies in a public school classroom.

+1000. And, whether this PP likes it or not, all parents have the ultimate decision on how their kids are raised. I don’t want mine indoctrinated by the public school agenda so I take responsibility for their education myself by paying for private school. That is my right as their mother.

Are they gathering at Richard Spencer’s old place?

What’s very clear is that Terry McAuliffe is a sleaze, and he’s comfortable working with people who’ll pull stupid and tasteless stunts that just underscore how our of touch he is with his constituents.

And, the other day, McAuliffe tweeted out that Trump is coming to Virginia to campaign for Youngkin. Not happening.

No idea who or where that is but the rally was at the plaza area. If you were there you couldn’t have missed it! 500-1000 people, easily, by 7:30 am. Many ready to knock on doors all day. Come join us!

Trump is having a tele-rally on Monday, is he not?

I think it was a poorly-done stunt. I get the message, but the delivery sucked. Windsor should stick to undercover videos.

At the same time, put blame where it’s due. This was the Lincoln Project and activists, not a political party.

It’s certainly not a deal breaker for me when there is a Trumpy candidate. I don’t want to embolden the real-life white supremacists they were trying to mock.

Did Trump change his mind? Bummer.
