WHO IS IN CHARGE OF OUR CHILDREN’S MINDS, THE WOKE GOVERNMENT OR PARENTS?

 WHO IS IN CHARGE OF OUR CHILDREN’S MINDS, THE WOKE GOVERNMENT OR PARENTS?

By Domenick J. Maglio PhD. Traditional Realist

 

Just a few years ago American citizens would proudly announce that parents are responsible for raising their children. Biblical scriptures have been inspirational in creating successful and law-abiding civilizations. There was no question who was in charge of children in the USA. The answer was self-evident, parents had a biological connection and raised their own children. The only exception was children being taken by totalitarian governments, most recently communist ones.

 

It was shocking to hear teachers, administrators, journalists, and union heads testifying at school board meetings that they, not parents should have the power to educate students as they see fit. In other words, woke communism will be taught to US children regardless of the views and rights of parents. 

 

In the past several years some teachers stood up in school board meetings saying that teachers were more important and responsible than parents to decide on the values that should be taught to their students because they had higher education. This was an extraordinarily shocking statement announced in a publicly televised forum. The teachers, their unions, and school boards announced outright communist concepts that they had the right to determine what should be taught. This was not a mistake where radical teachers that had gone awry, but one backed fully by the education bureaucracy and many of our communist politicians.  New Mexico School Boards Association Trainer, Andrew Sanchez, said. “Parental rights end when you decide to send your kids to public school.

 

There was strong negative parental reaction to these school board directives where the government education bureaucracy should be in charge of what is being taught to students. Some of the protesting parents have been attacked and arrested as well as being investigated by the FBI and DOJ. The government is going to war with the US citizens’ right to parent their own children. These parents reiterating their rights have been labeled domestic terrorists.

 

It appears at this time in US history, parents seem to have little to no rights as to what should be taught to their children. This should send chills down the spine of every God loving American. If the governmental teachers’ power supersedes parental power, we are entering a direct woke communist takeover of the minds and souls of our children. We, the citizens of the United States cannot ignore this in-your-face disregard of parental rights. The American Federation of Teachers president, Randi Weingarten, reposted a Washington Post article titled, "Parents claim they have the right to shape their kids’ school curriculum. They don’t." 

 

State indoctrination and propaganda openly practiced in our school systems needs to be confronted by all citizens, politically oriented left or right. This direct challenge to parental rights means if we accept the dominance of the state through the educational system, we are openly accepting a totalitarian country that rules everything from the top down. This will indicate Americans have become sheeple giving up our own children to the state authorities. This means our US constitutions is not worth fighting for even for our children

We have no rightful excuse for accepting the woke brainwashing concepts placed into our children’s thinking. We can no longer use the argument that we are so busy making and spending money that we can no longer raise righteous citizens. 

 

If parents relinquish their basic responsibility of instilling traditional values in our loved ones, we deserve to live in a repressive government with only government dictates. We cannot continue to turn the other cheek. Our children’s minds and values are more than worth our time and energy. Fight now or lose all our Biblical rights of living a free, Godly life. 

 

As insane as it sounds, pedophiles have been fighting for years for adults to have the right to have “consensual sex” with youngsters. There is no reasonable argument for pedophilia to be legalized in the US. It is a destructive act that has no benefits for any child. In other words, we sink further into evil once we start to sacrifice our children’s bodies as well as minds. There is no end to the depths of hell children will face if parents ignore their parenting responsibility.  We will lose everything that makes us free.

 

Allowing the educational bureaucracy to take away the rights of parents to love and educate their own children according to traditional values and teachings is like using a hydrogen bomb on the sanctity of the family in the United States. This is a declaration of war against the citizen’s rights and liberties of every American. A woke communist agenda has been adopted in our educational system. We have no right to claim ignorance because we have been informed.

 

By allowing government to usher in a totalitarian communist existence it will mean our citizens have accepted a death warrant for America. This take over is not being slow walked. It is happening at warp speed. We need to unite quickly or lose all our freedoms. Our children are our destiny.

THE CONCEPT OF REPARATIONS WILL CREATE MORE DIVISIVENESS

 THE CONCEPT OF REPARATIONS WILL CREATE MORE DIVISIVENESS

By Domenick J. Maglio PhD. Traditional Realist

 

America is not yet a communist nation. The self-serving government officials taking citizens tax money and choosing to pay members of certain protected groups while withholding it from others will only cause injustice and resentment. It will open a Pandora’s box of unmeasurable unfairness issues that cannot be logically justified. 

 

 All humans have suffered some form of unwanted prejudice, misfortune, or tragedy. Every person has suffered unfairness in their life. The list is never ending. A child witnessed one parent killing the other, a person born with a defect, a child abandoned on the street, being stolen at age 5 for child sex trafficking, the death of a precious loved one, are a few of the unfortunate situations people must live with regardless of the shade of their skin. Each of them suffered, do they deserve reparations?

 

Almost all those entering the new world of America had some suffering. The pioneers in history had no government handouts in settling wilderness land that the Indians saw as their own. These settlers honored the land grants they received by building homesteads while having to protect themselves from natives wanting to regain their land and lifestyle. 

 

As later foreign immigrants poured in from all over the world, many stayed on the east coast in poor urban neighborhoods while others moved into the interior to find a way to survive. There were no upscale hotels and incredible food to greet them. They had to make do with whatever they found to sustain them. 

 

Slave traders brought mostly black slaves to sell. Many were sold to plantation owners for building and maintaining the crops. Many suffered under horrible injustice from some evil owners while others were more humanely treated. How do you quantify the ultimate loss of one’s being?  Some “indentured servants” were treated worse than the slaves as they were of little long-term value to the plantation owners. They had to work until they had paid off their debt then they would be free and if they died in the meantime, it was not a big deal.

 

There were waves of immigrant groups who lost much of their dignity when they attempted to be accepted in this new country. The Irish were discriminated against by signs in store windows that stated, “No Micks Need apply.” All non-English speaking people such as the Polish ([Pollocks) German (Krauts) and Slavic (Slavs) suffered humiliation before they were accepted as American citizens. Should they be paid reparations?

 

The enormous influx of Italians in the turn of the 20th century flooded into Ellis Island. A portion of them were returned to Italy as they did not pass immigration standards. Some were turned back for any physical defect and others for being too dark skinned. Like immigrants before them, they were shut out of business opportunities leaving most of them to do manual labor at a menial salary. Many Latin Americans faced similar housing and employment discrimination living in tenements with several families in a small, poor apartment.  

 

Currently the United States’ open borders policy is creating a disastrous situation. Border crossers may now be receiving government assistance but eventually it will end when a new administration turns off the spigot of government welfare. Could it be that these individuals flooding into our nation may demand reparations for breaking the law? They have already received financial benefits by not having to go through the bureaucratic hoops and pay the thousands of dollars necessary to receive citizenship legally. 

 

Today in an age where some children are treated as princes and princesses, too many believe if they do not receive the latest electronics, most expensive shoes and clothing, they are being abused. It is even worse with teenagers. Many act as if they have been horribly abused by punitive parents and should be compensated by the government’s financial reparations.

 

The wonderful news for US citizens is that they can overcome their discrimination and mistreatment by making good life choices for themselves. They can make choices today and stop wanting the government to take taxpayers money to give to them and certain protected classes.  

 

If we open Pandora’s box of reparations, all citizens will be holding out their hand for a free phone, free college, free housing, and an exhaustive list of other things. American success is that we have the freedom to choose our own lifestyle. We can work hard and be careful with our money like many immigrants did throughout our history. We have the freedom to decide our own fate. 

 

When government officials mandated citizens’ tax money go to one group and not another we are in the territory of socialism-communism which has never worked in history. This dysfunctional totalitarian method of taking from one group and giving to another only creates unfair and chaotic divisiveness.

AMERICAN CITIZENS LAST

 AMERICAN CITIZENS LAST

By Domenick J. Maglio PhD. Traditional Realist

 

Our America policies seem to be more concerned about other nation’s feelings rather than our citizen’s interests. Our “woke” administration is allowing our southern and northern borders to remain wide open to allow anyone to enter our nation. The US landowner’s private property on the borders is being invaded by foreigners. They are breaking into homes, robbing, and destroying crops or using weapons to terrorize them. A significant number of these illegals are drug cartel infiltrators, child traffickers, and vicious terrorists. Our own citizen’s lives, and property are being sacrificed by our governmental policy. 

 

The reality is the state and local governments are providing these illegals hotel residency, food, and transportation to those who demand it. These invaders are being treated better than law abiding US citizens. These priorities are upside-down making no sense. The illegal immigrants’ needs first, citizens last. 

 

The people in East Palestine, a small town in Ohio had a train derailment of hazardous chemicals which contaminated the vicinity. Many affected citizens were seen on TV suffering from serious ailments. They were told by federal officials that there was nothing to worry about as there was no contamination of soil or water. The federal government including FEMA , the present administration, and the state government of Ohio did little to nothing to intervene while claiming to the people that everything was under control. 

 

President Biden has not yet visited this contaminated city or showed them any economic package to aid their suffering. Yet, President Biden went to Ukraine to visit with President Zelensky highlighting a billion dollars and weapons to support this foreign nation. The President did this while ignoring East Palestine’s serious issues. US citizens last, President Biden’s business associates first. 

 

President Biden’s concern for China’s reaction to shooting China’s spy balloon before it went across the entire USA was more important than sending a strong message to China that we are a sovereign nation. The president projected weakness, not strength as the leader of the free world. 

 

The Wuhan virus which many scientific experts initially indicated originated in China and now the FBI has evidence demonstrating that it most likely came from the Wuhan lab. This is still denied and downplayed by the administration and press. Once again, the USA is acting subservient to the CCP. American sovereignty comes last compared to China’s provocative spying on our nation.

 

On the domestic front, many blue states and federal agencies are conceding power to the pro- riot groups and hardened criminals. After the 2020 riots “Defunding the Police” had the result of losing thousands of police officers making our streets even more unsafe. The infamous George Soros has financed the elections of woke attorney generals sympathetic to criminals. He persuaded them to release the criminals back into the public without serving any sentence. This means a criminal who commits a violent crime is back on the street the next day to continue committing crimes. This is the reason why so many of our cities are seeing rising crime rates. Criminals first: citizens last.

 

After the Supreme Court decision to send the issue back to the states, pro-abortion rioters marched in front of Supreme Court justice’s homes. They particularly honed in on Justice Kavanaugh’s home. This is against our established laws yet Attorney General Garland, the head of the Department of Justice, refused to enforce their law. This was a partisan move from the head of our justice department. 

 

Almost all of our US policy decisions are not percolating up from citizens to their representatives. Instead, they are being mandated from the White House down to citizens. This authoritarian process from the top down to the people is un-American. 

 

Global warming assumptions are coming from the globalist elites to our federal government. Our mandated Covid-19 shots came from government bureaucrats, not from a consensus of the scientific community. The support of the Ukrainian war came from the administration not the consensus of the people. Our public-school curriculum is not from the parents (who have been investigated for expressing their opinions) but from the teacher’s unions. Forgiveness of those who did not pay student loans was a method of the executive branch to gain votes. CRT, reparations, and DEI are also ways to gain popularity and votes of blacks and the woke. EGS Environmental Social Governance, is a concession to the worldwide corporations who will be major elite partners in the emerging one-world government.

 

WE THE PEOPLE have an immense amount to lose if we do not stand up to the disregarding of the rule of law. Our constitutional republic’s brilliant checks and balances to keep citizens in control of the US government is essential.

 

American citizens first, not last.
