Last night, Fairfax County school board member Abrar Omeish woke-washes 9/11, causing a parent to shout, "It's a sham!" Board member Ricardy Anderson admonishes Omeish. I had signed up to speak, but they didn't draw my name out of the hat. Here is what I would have said!
Abrar Omeish dares to recommend @fcpsnews chief diversity officer Lisa Williams @FCPSEquity consult Amaarah DeCuir who scolds teachers to NOT call the 9/11 hijackers "terrorists." In a new @FairfaxTimes column, I write that this woke-washing must stop. fairfaxtimes.com/articles/fairf…
Read this piece by @lukerosiak who shows you why you must pay attention to this story. Abrar Omeish brags her dad was a 9/11 first responder. He is also a leader at the mosque, Darul Hijrah, called "the 9/11 mosque" because so many hijackers prayed there. dailywire.com/news/school-bo…
In 2010, Shakir Elsayed, the imam of "the 9/11 mosque," Dar-ul Hijrah, and a friend of Abrar Omeish's father, Essam, called Fairfax County police on me and other women who dared to pray in the main hall BEHIND the men. That's how progressive they are. thedailybeast.com/showdown-at-th…
You think this is just guilt by association? No. It's a pattern. In 2007, then-Gov. Tim Kaine removed Esam Omeish from a state commission because Omeish had called for jihad against the state of Israel. Omeish claimed it was a "peaceful" jihad. nbcnews.com/id/wbna21016079
Esam Omeish's alma mater, now called Justice High School, denies him an award because of his call for jihad against Israel. Fast forward, and daughter Abrar Omeish returns to the high school to...wait for it...urge students to jihad. Peaceful, she insists

What is the connective tissue here 20 years after 9/11? Extremist views of Islamism, political Islam. Hate of Israel. Victimhood. Hate for America. Now they use wokeism as a Trojan horse for their dangerous intolerant ideology. It's a LONG WAR, friends.

Tonight, a whistleblower sent us @DefendingEd the @fcpsnews Grade 2 Summer Learning 2021 guide. Look at “Suggested Texts”➡️“Safe” by “Woke Kindergarten” with this message for 2nd graders: “I feel safe when there are no police.” YouTube then cues up Woke K’garten’s “pronoun” books
Here is the “Learning Guide” for 2nd graders from Fairfax County Public Schools, VA, with the hyperlink to “Woke Kindergarten” reading of “Safe,” with the message: “I feel safe when there are no police.” @FairfaxCountyPD @stella_pekarsky

Here is the video that @fcpsnews recommends for second graders with the message, “I feel safe when there are no police.” 👮🏽‍♀️👮🏼👮🏾‍♀️👮🏻

Many asked me who is clapping when Michelle Leete says, "Let them die!" about folks with different viewpoints. In my work as an independent journalist, I investigated. My findings: @FairfaxDems organized the protest. Its chair @BryanGrahamVA applauds, "Let them die!" Thread
What the video illustrates is the many that @FairfaxDems rallied for the protest, present when “Let them die!” was said: @BryanGrahamVA @FEA_Fairfax @JenniferBoysko @KimberlyAdams @gpalber @GSchoradt @TJAlumniAG @FairfaxNAACP cont below. Protest ad is on fairfaxdemocrats.org
Could you please comment @FairfaxDems @BryanGrahamVA on why you applauded when “Let them die!” was declared? Could others please also comment on why they just went on with the protest without saying anything, even now? Protest organizer @GSchoradt is a @DemsProvidence official.

“Let them die,” says @FairfaxNAACP leader Michelle Leete at protest before @fcpsnews board. Folks against critical race theory are here, with protestors including Leete opposing them. It’ll be 🧨 tonight. Watch at fcps.edu/school-board/s…
Now a @TJAlumniAG member applauds “students of color” in new TJ Class of 2025. Too bad the 70% of Asian students at TJ don’t count as being “of color.”
Now police tell a parent opposed to critical race theory she can’t wear her flag scarf inside. And a white blonde woman tells me that she doesn’t agree with my writings on TJ but acknowledges my right to speak. Uhhh…thanks? #FirstAmendment #FreeSpeech

TJ PTSA's president is an attorney @arnoldporter , which represents lobbyist @TJAlumniAG. TJAAG lobbied to kill the merit test to TJ. She says TJAAG is not her client. She voted to NOT release a survey showing parents support the merit test. Does she have a conflict of interest?
@arnoldporter @TJAlumniAG I asked @arnoldporter and the TJ PTSA president for comment. They did not reply to my request for comment.
Why does this matter? Thomas Jefferson HS for Science and Technology is a crown jewel in America's education system and winning it is a feather in the cap -- or crown -- of woke activists, represented in this battle by @TJAlumniAG and @arnoldporter. This is no ordinary fight.

🧵BREAKING! According to a FOIA we filed @DefendingEd, @fcpsnews signed a $49,600 purchase order with @LeadershipAcad_ for a bogus "anti-racism" survey rigged to drive the consultants business.
Read the column I wrote with Elizabeth Schultz @RealClearEd👇🏽
realcleareducation.com/articles/2021/…
🚨ACTION ALERT. @DefendingEd created a portal where Fairfax County residents can send a message to @FCPSSupt Scott Brabrand, FCPS School Board's 12 members + new Chief Equity Officer @LisaLwilliams13
to express their opposition to the the biased survey.

MUST READ @USATODAY chronicles the national movement against teaching hateful critical race theory to kids. One thing: it's not just "Republicans."
@aliaemily cites new @DefendingEd poll that reveals MOST folks oppose racist ideas of critical race theory.
usatoday.com/story/news/edu…
Media needs to stop pigeonholing this as "conservative." @USATODAY @aliaemily recognizes: "A recent poll by @DefendingEd found more than two-thirds of respondents "opposed schools teaching that America was founded on racism + is structurally racist."
defendinged.org/press-releases…
The @USATODAY piece acknowledges: "Close to 3 in 4 respondents said schools shouldn't teach students that white people are inherently privileged and people of color inherently oppressed."
