The chair of the stateās House Education Policy and Administration Committee appears to have promoted the idea of āsegregated schoolsā in a Signal chat.
Scandals involving the Signal messaging app keep popping up in the Republican Party.
Lest you believe such controversies are confined to the Trump administration, New Hampshireās House Republican Office has issued a defiant statement on behalf of a top GOP state lawmaker who backed āsegregated schoolsā in a newly leaked Signal chat.
The revelation comes as Donald Trump and the MAGA movement press forward with an unabashedly racist, pro-segregation political agenda and tries to whitewash the history of racism in the U.S.
This is who and what the conservatives and the Republicans are.
Donāt let anyone tell you otherwise. Way too many thinkpieces that seem to have as a built-in assumption that Donvict just came along and somehow ruined the Republican Party. Thatās bullshit - people like David Brooks spent lots of money and ink and flowery language on papering over the fact that the Republican Party is full of Republicans for decades and pretended that Rush was just some fringe phenomenon.
Itās just the mask is coming off. Having Obama in office followed by a piece of shit racist like Donvict following him has simply pried these people loose of their usual self-editing. Now they donāt feel they have to edit themselves at all.
Another historical turning point was desegregation and white flight to xtian private schools (segregation academies). There was a decision there that boiled the blood of the racists and they took up a home in the Republican Party and married far-right white supremacist shit with xtianity under their ābig tentā. I think they still donāt quite have their way on this, but weāll see how long that lasts under this administration. It has galvanized Republicans for years, though. They are infuriated that their kids have to sit in schools with Black kids and are dying to reverse that.
