DeSoto ISD Ed Thread 🧵 I went to the DeSoto ISD school board last night to discuss two items: 1) The first was regarding the tax rate presentation from the TEA conservator Dr. Andrew Kim who moonlights in other ISDs, such as Beaumont ISD, Lake Worth ISD, and Socorro ISD and is paid $14,000 per month from DeSoto in addition to the other compulsory district payments.

After hours of listening to the RPT Texas GOP committee deliberate and try to shrink the number of issues on the platform, they finally allowed public testimony around 10:00 pm. I suggested we put School Choice™️ at the VERY BOTTOM since it was too late to kick it out altogether. School Choice™️ keeps us from addressing the most important issues in Texas. Families Engaged Texas My next suggestion was to define strings : Accountability measures - testing Accreditation - control teachers - hiring - eliminates God and religious freedom Accounting - where the money goes Academic - controlling what is taught Alignment - UNESCO, WEF, global standards with all children on devices learning the same junk Access - what better way to access those outside the system (private/home) than to dangle the money? Administration - Certified Education Assistance Org (CEAO) Astroturf Always follow the money…

Hot take🔥🥵☀️ ☀️ I was out walking my grandbaby in Georgetown, TX and got fired up after seeing this beautiful Georgetown ISD historic administration building. #txed #txlege 🔥 If Greg Abbott gets four more years to destroy public education in Texas, we will no longer have ANY public options because the privatization agenda will shift our tax dollars to special interests, real estate bros, edtech vendors, nonprofits, P3s, consultants and stink tanks. 😈 It’s the devil we know vs. the devil we don’t 👿 🔥 They will shutter as many campuses as possible and will auction off the schools to the highest bidder or co-locate to for-profit charter schools but taxpayers will be stuck with the debt. 🔥 Arsonist Abbott and his firefighters like Morath, Miles and Todd Williams are deceiving voters with their takeover plans. 🏫 You may be at odds with your local ISD like I was for years with the dipshits running Richardson ISD but I can say with all confidence that what is coming is unrecognizable and unconstitutional. 🤖 It’s not education. It’s privatization. It’s globalization. It’s TECHNOCRACY. 💸 They will continue passing vendor bills and will drive up spending for voucher subsidies which will engulf homeschool and private school kids and fold them into the same system as the 5.4 million public school kids. 🏫 All education options will be centralized and controlled by the state and federal government. 🇺🇸 They will call it “education freedom” and “parent empowerment” but it will be enslavement and an enclosure.

Who is Bad Bill Buckley? State Representative Brad Buckley is the Chair of the House Public Education Committee which held a hearing yesterday to discuss all the glitches in House Bill 2 authored by him but lobbied by Commit Partnership and Morath. He allowed the invited testimony to go first for all three topics below: • HB 2 monitoring • Teacher recruitment and retention • Special education The public speakers were sandbagged at the end of the day when the majority of the reps were absent. Those of us who signed up to speak on all three topics had to do them back-to-back instead of immediately following the invited testimony.
