Missouri Freedom Initiative Livestream 7:30 p.m. -- Silver and Gold!

 

 

From Patrick Holland's livestream notes:  

 

"While we often delve into strategies for legislative success in Missouri, tonight's focus shifts to the underlying imperative of the Constitutional Money Act.

The urgency of this matter cannot be overstated. Citizens for Sound Money, with Daniel Diaz at the helm as Executive Director, has been an important ally in our quest to pass sound money legislation in Missouri. Daniel joins us tonight to dissect the precariousness of our current financial system, underscoring the necessity for a viable alternative.

The looming shadow of a potential economic downturn, particularly in the realm of commercial real estate, has sparked concerns of a crisis that could dwarf the turmoil of 2008. These discussions, largely absent from mainstream media, have found a home on alternative platforms, highlighting a brewing storm that could have profound impacts on us all.

This narrative of fiscal distress extends to the education sector, where schools, rather than tightening belts, have leveraged recent bond approvals to secure funding, amplifying the tax burden on local communities. This trend, echoing the fiscal challenges of states like Illinois, serves as a stark reminder of government priorities, often at odds with the well-being of its citizens."

Funding our own demise

From: WLA, an alternative to the ALA

 By Gretchen Garrity 

Taxpayers--citizens of Christian County--are unknowingly funding the American Library Association's advocacy for overthrowing our nation. Our local library, the Christian County Library, has sent Executive Director Renee Brumett, to an Ohio ALA conference this week that...well, let them speak for themselves.

 Dan Kleinman of the World Library Association details the facts. I've drawn shamelessly from his article.  Read his article (and do read the whole thing, there's lots of similar quotes from the main speakers):

 

"So the "Big Ideas" for public librarians to learn on the public's dime are anticapitalism, with a side helping of racism and hate.  This is what librarians are learning as Big Ideas to kick off their day at an ALA conference with an inspiring speaker sure to challenge their minds and spark their creativity.  Then they come back to the local communities and implement the anticapitalism and racism and hate they just learned.  All taxpayer funded.  All of it.  Memberships, conferences, travel, meals, incidentals, all of it."

 

The PLA, Public Library Association, IS the ALA.

Now do you see why citizens have been petitioning the CCL for over a year to no avail? When your librarians and a majority of board members are activists, courtesy of the Marxist ALA, you will get nowhere with an appeal to decency, child protection, and community values.

When the library budgets $30,000 for staff and board travel, not to mention thousands for "training" and whatever else they have stuffed into the budget under innocuous sounding categories, it's time for a review.

And it is long past time for the CCL to sever any and all ties with the American Library Association and its chapter member, The Missouri Library Association. There are alternatives to the Marxist ALA such as Kleinman's WLA.

 

The MSBA is in a sticky spot

From: MSBA

 By Gretchen Garrity

There were several very important outcomes to yesterday's (April 2, 2024) municipal races in Christian County. First, the Christian County Health Board has three new members who are dedicated to individual freedom. It is a huge win for citizens.

Second, the President-Elect of the Missouri School Boards Association, Ozark School Board Member Patty Quessenberry, was defeated. After 27 years as a school board member, the voters decided change was needed.

Now for the sticky part. According to the MSBA by-laws, the President of the MSBA must also be a current school board member:

"Article IV - Board of Directors
Section 1 - Qualifications
With the exception of the position of Immediate Past President and any ex-officio member serving as chair of the MSBA Council of Past Presidents, to be eligible to serve on the Board of Directors a person must be a member of an Active Member Board and shall have served at least two years on their local Board of Education."

 

From: Christian County Website

 Quessenberry has just been voted off the Ozark School Board. The by-laws further state:

 

"Art. IV, Section 8 - Resignation

Resignation, Automatic - A member of the Board of Directors who vacates a local board position, with the exception of the President and the Immediate Past President, shall immediately relinquish their position on the Board of Directors."

It's possible that Quessenberry can become an individual member according to Art. II, Sec. 5 of the by-laws, but she will not be able to hold elected office.

That she was elected President-elect last year may give the MSBA a little bit of wiggle room if they are adamant about retaining her as President in 2024. However, their own by-laws are clear. To keep her on as President of the MSBA when she is no longer a school board member, is problematic.

Patty Quessenberry on "Social Transitioning"

From: Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery on X

 

 By Gretchen Garrity

At last Tuesday's candidate forum in Ozark, a woman named Amy Cooper asked the candidates their opinion of Rep. Jamie Gragg's bill (HB 2885) that would make it a crime for a teacher to assist a child in their desire to transition from one sex to the other. An impossibility, of course. The term "social transitioning" is not what is happening. This is what is happening, and that's not the worst of it.

School Board member and president-elect of the Missouri School Boards Association, Patty Quessenberry, answered out of her "Christian" sensibilities. It's a doozy. Her pastor needs to help exorcise the progressive tendencies she expressed in her answer.

To suggest, as Quessenberry did, that a Christian is not supposed to make a judgment regarding the emotional and physical mutilation of troubled children, but to make sure they feel safe in their delusion, is depraved. She does say the right words at one point--that it's not for teachers to help a child to "transition," but her overall answer was anti-christian in its intent.

Quessenberry then defends teachers and says she wants teacher retention in Ozark. Okaaaay. What does Ozark teacher retention have to do with Rep. Gragg's bill? What is she saying?

God will ultimately hold her accountable for her "non-judgment" of the diabolical and profit-driven gender movement that is deeply harming the psyches and bodies of children. Is this the type of individual who should get another term on the Ozark School Board? For more on Quessenberry go here.

UPDATE: Example A of why our local school board elections are vital: Joe Biden has declared March 31, 2024 as Transgender Visibility Day. Gender ideology is a top-down imposition on our local communities. Resist.

School Choice--Where Politics Makes Strange Bedfellows

Special interests--the big bad kind--are pushing HARD for school choice.

Public school boards, superintendents and staff should understand the implications for them if school choice is passed. This is one of those rare times when people usually on the opposite spectrum (like homeschool advocates) can come together to oppose an awful bill (SB727). It needs to go down in flames.

The Jeff City RINOs love to hate Mo Education Watch. If you are on Twitter, give this account a follow.

Looks like we have the annual Govt School Choice lobby meltdown in action.

Last year the same exact people came after a House Rep for voting no on Open Enrollment. They are rabid.

How Schools Suppress Free Speech

Spokane school board candidate Ed Unger speaks up about the onerous rule regarding free speech at the Spokane R-VII School District, a rule adopted in July 2022.

 

Here is the actual rule that is suppressing free speech in Spokane R-VII School District. It is very similar to other local districts. It's time to insist on our rights of free speech. If your school district has similar rules, it's time to let the school board know it won't be tolerated. Voting is one way to have your say. Local elections are Tuesday, April 2, 2024.
