[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I also think it's kind of sneaky and dishonest that Miranda has no reference to her role as a founder/leader of APE on her website. We know what you did and who you did it with. Just own it. Be honest.

What are you talking about? THere is literally a FAQ on her website.

About APE:

What is Arlington Parents for Education (APE)?
Arlington Parents for Education is a local bipartisan group of Arlington parents that formed during the pandemic out of a Facebook group to advocate for APS to provide the option of in-person school. I remain proud of my advocacy, which involved efforts on a county-wide basis to persuade, engage respectfully, and use evidence, and leadership in encouraging others to do the same. APE still exists and you can learn more on their website.

I have been also proud of how our Arlington community has moved past that divisive debate to work together to continue to better our schools. As we came out of the pandemic, I helped shift APE’s focus to good governance issues and academics. Currently, APE’s advocacy activities range from meeting with local elected and APS officials, to publishing a regular newsletter on APS and speaking at School Board meetings, to active participation in the Arlington Civic Federation. A number of members are active politically in Arlington Democrats.

I resigned from APE’s board last year in order to pursue election as your next School Board member. I’m asking for your vote! [/quote]

The truth doesn’t mattter to these trolls. They just complain on AEM and then spread trash here. [/quote]

That is new, was not there the other day. Interesting.[/quote]

I wonder if she also removed the photos with the insane campaign dude. [/quote]

It's still kind of hidden. Why doesn't she put it on her about me page, where she lists the other stuff she's done? Is she trying to distance herself from APE? [/quote]

It’s never enough some people. She doesn’t talk about ape! It’s too hidden! They won’t disclose their donors!

And on the other hand,  folks doxx people,  posting their addresses, asking questions about their employers and personal beliefs on a public forum. I don’t blame ape for not publishing that info and releasing the hounds on folks.

I saw the AEM thread which is how I learned about it. I didn't see any addresses so I'm not sure what you're talking about with that. I thought it was very interesting that one of the founders of APE works for a Koch-funded organization. Maybe that's peachy with you, but that's information I want to know going into a board race. ESPECIALLY with the nuttiness that's going on at our state level. But maybe you agree with all of that. You seem VERY focused on this so it sounds like you are either the person who works for this org or closely aligned with this, and upset that this got exposed.
