| 2021-02-21 |
| [NYPost] Members of a California school board resigned en masse after they were caught mocking parents during a public video meeting about re-opening schools shuttered during the pandemic. All four members, including president Lisa Brizendine of the Oakley Elementary School District board, resigned Friday, according to a Fox News report. The board members were caught on video complaining about parents who wanted teachers to return to their classrooms. Brizendine appeared to mock parents who “want their babysitters back” during the Wednesday meeting which trustees thought was private. |

| #7 Teachers unions are the most powerful entity in this country. It's like Mexico, where the teachers are the most powerful, the most left-wing and the most corrupt of all the public employee groups. Complete domination of the Democrat Party. No organized opposition at all ... private schools are tiny in number. Catholic schools try to avoid scrutiny. Homeschoolers have no organization whatsoever. |

| #6 So all four assholes quit the board to... go back to not working for the schools? Why do I not see any calls for widespread decertification of teacher's unions? |

| #5 ^ Maybe they wanted out before anyone uncovered something worse than their tone-deaf antics. Like malfeasance or some such... |

| #4 the most surprising part of this story is that they all promptly resigned. no 'out of context' shuffle or the 'sorry you were offended' boogie-woogie |

| #2 I foresee the number of school bond votes headed deep south in the near future, not just in Oakley. |
