Council Member Mink associated middle schoolers with white supremacists and bigots. That was very hurtful. After all, not all supremacists are white. Bigots and white supremacists routinely use, albeit with declining efficacy, voting rights violations to block out people not like them from winning elections. As noted in a previous post, the entire Board of…
During the 2022 election season it was not popular to be associated with a church that ascribed to beliefs that were counter mainstream MoCo culture. In fact, if you belonged to a church that did not support, for instance, gay marriage or transgender ideology you were labeled “hateful”. This was especially evident in the school…
A brief follow-up to earlier posts where we clearly showed Montgomery County Councilmember Will (Yemi?) Jawando has made several misleading and outright false claims in official ‘proclamations’ or government communications (e-mails from his office) concerning his familial ancestry and story and how it is intertwined with Black American slavery and overcoming government-supported segregation. The most galling of these…
Did you know Montgomery County has five “Sister Cities”? Three are in Asia, one in Africa and one in, yep, Marc Elrich’s favorite country, El Salvador (more on this in another investigative post). Per the ‘about’ page on the County’s Sister City website, the mission here is: People have come to Montgomery County, Maryland from…
Local author, and general thorn in the side of Montgomery County COVID lockdown fanatics, co-authored a book that was published in 2023 titled, “Stolen Youth: How Radicals Are Erasing Innocence and Indoctrinating a Generation”. If you haven’t purchased a copy yet, you can do so via Amazon, here. The book summary on Amazon: The kids…
Montgomery County Councilmember Kristin Mink (Democrat, District 5) gained local and national notoriety as an “activist” and self-described “outspoken advocate for climate, immigration rights, and social justice.” In March 2020, CM Mink wrote on her blog that she “while still teaching middle school (virtually), I co-founded Masks For America, a volunteer-run nonprofit that crowdfunded, sourced,…
Number 10 Hypocrisy is not a good optic. With no data to back her claim of systemic racism, Ms. Mink has called for defunding. She has called for reducing the presence of police in our communities in order to limit interactions between police and the residents they are called on to serve (while other elected…
The hypocrisy and irony inherent in HB433: Expanding the Freedom to Serve Act, sponsored by David Fraser-Hidalgo and Cheryl Kagan, are too blatant to go unchecked. The bill states, “There is an ongoing shortage of police officers in our communities. The Freedom to Serve Act will significantly increase the potential candidates of law enforcement applicants…
Since 2008 various cases regarding public officials blocking individuals on Twitter have gone through the court system. Repeatedly the courts have affirmed much of the public’s right to read and reply to these government communications. In fact, the recent departed Governor of Maryland, settled a case outside of court related to this very issue, paying…
