While we are glad that @MiamiHerald is highlighting book censorship in schools locally, their coverage here shows an ongoing pattern of failing to do the most basic research & reporting on the players & politics behind local school board politics. 2/

As we’ve posted times before:

If you attend Proud Boy rallies and roll with Moms for Liberty and similar groups to school board meetings, prepare to have your name and face forever posted on the internet for the world to see.

Daily Salinas just found out. Salud!🍻 #FAFO 12/ Image
