Mother Starts $5000 GoFundMe for 1st Grader She Says Has OCD Because of ‘Critical Race Theory’

 

Robin Steenman, the chapter head of “Moms for Liberty” in Tennessee, is raising money for a family she says has been so traumatized by “critical race theory” that a first grader requires psychological help.

 

The GoFundMe is asking for $5,000 because the family’s 7-year-old daughter is in treatment for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder because she was taught “critical race theory” in her first-grade class.

 

Steenman recently appeared on Glenn Beck’s radio show to talk about her work in her community to create hysteria around the teaching of CRT. She boasted that she’s recruited 1,100 angry parents in her community to organize for “Moms for Liberty,” a right-wing group run by conservative women who masquerade as a community mom’s organization.

The ad's too short.  

 

They trimmed out "Not one person in my Party voted for it."

“We’re in uncharted political territory,” a former GOP official told me.  

 

Actually, we're not.  Seen it before.  Germany.  1939 or so.

Do They Really Believe The Lies?

 

famous German once said, “if you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.” The case of Trump, his defenders in Congress, and their allies in conservative media is different. They told big enough lies, and repeated them so often, that they came to believe their own falsehoods.

 

For example: The Biden administration recently decided to withhold lethal aid to Ukraine. Senator Marco Rubio tweeted, “Remember when freezing military aid to Ukraine was an impeachable offense?”

 

Of course, that was not why Congress impeached Donald Trump. Now, does Rubio believe this lie? Maybe. But it certainly appears that his transformation from laissez faire capitalist to a man eager to use the power of government against private businesses is sincere.

 

Another example: Senator Ron Johnson once admitted in private that he knew Donald Trump lost the 2020 election. But the revealing part is that he also believes that the left is an existential threat to America, unlike the patriotic people at Trump’s rallies who, Johnson says, love America. And because Johnson has talked himself into believing that the entirety of the left is an existential threat, he has allied himself with anybody anywhere—even Vladimir Putin—to stop them.

 

Here’s another example. The Claremont Institute was founded with two principles: a reverence for statesmanship and a belief that America’s Founding documents were demi-biblical Truth. Today, the people at Claremont are so dismayed by the left’s “existential threat” to America that they published “The Flight 93 Election,” apologized for the most unstatesmanlike president America has ever had, and now openly question the wisdom of the Founders while suggesting that the Constitution be reimagined. The students of Lincoln’s statesmanship and Crisis of the House Divided now reject Lincolnism because tHe LeFt Is So BaD.

In a country that was split 51-49ish, I have a hard time buying the "protecting the minority from the majority" sentiment.    Trump won in 2016  by less than Biden won, and I don't remember Santorum screaming about how the minority interests must be protected.  This is just another attempt to go against what the original context of that statement was meaning.

GOP women's group dismisses Greene and Boebert as 'carnival barkers'

 

A major fundraising group for GOP women is taking aim at Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) and Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.), likening them to "carnival barkers."

 

The Value In Electing Women (VIEW) PAC, founded in 1997 to increase the number of Republican women in Congress, is condemning the actions of both GOP lawmakers, Business Insider reported Wednesday.

 

"While we rightfully celebrate the number of GOP women serving in the House, I've always professed quality over quantity," VIEW PAC Executive Director Julie Conway told the outlet. 

Being in Congress is not a "joke" or "reality show," she added.

 

"Our women have fought too hard for too long to be respected and taken seriously as legislators, policy makers and thought leaders. We cannot let this work be erased by individuals who chose to be shameless self promoters and carnival barkers," she said.

 

The PAC, which has raised more than $20 million for Republican female candidates since 2010, said it will not be endorsing the Greene or Boebert in the 2022 midterm elections, when both lawmakers will be seeking a second term in Congress.

Its fun to see the right refer to themselves as the minority and the silent majority at the same time. Especially when you consider they are most white and male. 

 

Their heads must explode on a regular basis. When putting them back together, they always leave something out.

Imagine being stupid enough to believe what this dip**** says.  Imagine looking at this guy and think, yeah, he represents my views. I’ll vote for him.  The right cries about “liberal elitists”.  No, not elitists, just not complete ****ing morons.
