If any of you are sick of Muslims sticking their noses into American history and culture, raise your hand. If any of you are sick of weak-kneed, no gonads leftists, allowing them to run roughshod over American traditions because they’re afraid of offending these pushy, obnoxious foreigners, raise your other hand.
The Texas State Board of Education is proposing changes to the mandated school curriculum that would eliminate lessons about the American Revolution and marginalize our Founding Fathers.
Who is proposing these changes? Naturally, it's the Council on American-Islamic Relations, supported by three spineless Republicans who have paired with aimless Democrats to push for alterations suggested by individuals who have no right to make recommendations.
So, what changes does this group want to make? Well, to name a few, they want references to the Black Robed Regiment removed; the regiment consisted of Protestant pastors who supported and fought for the American Revolution.
Of course they do. It’s natural for Muslims to want to minimize/erase the bravery of any other religion. They want their political movement (Islam is NOT a religion) front and center.
Get this, the board also struck out the definition of the American flag as a symbol of independence because one of the board members stated that not all people were free when America was established.
Julie Pickren is a member of the state board of education, and she appeared on Todd Starnes’ national radio show on Friday to try to explain how this madness could take place in Texas.
During her interview with Todd, she stated that Republicans and Democrats worked together to remove parts of the American Revolution from required history lessons.
This is both frightening and bizarre beyond words. They specifically rejected the stories of Valley Forge and the battles of Lexington and Bunker Hill. Instead, the board wanted to focus on modern-day America and emphasize figures like Oprah Winfrey rather than George Washington.
Pickren stated that an effort is being made to delay the vote. If this occurs, it could give parents more time to organize and stop this nonsense. This is simply an updated version of Common Core. They taught our children that our Founding Fathers were viewed as domestic terrorists.
Texas Public Policy Foundation’s Mandy Drogin told Texas Scoreboard:
“How any patriotic American can support the removal of significant Revolutionary War battles, including Lexington, Concord, and Valley Forge, from Texas public schools’ U.S. History standards, is beyond me.”
The Islamists not only want to delete portions of American history and rewrite others, but they also want to inject themselves into it where they don’t belong. As part of their (suggested) alterations, they presented some 300 pages of changes and recommendations, including one that alleged the Alamo had ties to Islam. A lie that is simply not true.
America was founded by Christians, not by Muslims, and we must not allow anyone to try to alter that truth.
Recently, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis posted on X:
“Those who reject the core meaning of the American Revolution in favor of agenda-driven revisionist history are not trying to unite around a common story.”
The fact that this is happening in Texas is beyond the pale. This situation should never have reached this point. Why is the school board even considering these nonsensical, baseless changes, and why weren’t the parents aware?
We’re not talking about cutting the number of computers or limiting the number of children per classroom. This is about either eliminating American history, changing the truth about American history, or outright lying about American History. None of which are acceptable.
Since the Islamists are so interested in decimating American History and culture, perhaps we should start dissecting their murderous and miserable history, specifically the Quran. Perhaps we should publicize everywhere their beliefs on women, women’s rights, and the rights of gays and lesbians.
At this point, an American version of the Quran should be high on the priority list. It should be published and distributed, and the American version should be widely discussed on conservative talk shows with no rebuttal allowed, no sense muddying the waters, right?
The Texas State Board of Education should be ashamed. To allow this would be an abomination. It’s time to wake up and be proud of our nation.
In case you haven’t heard, our country is celebrating its 250th Birthday this weekend. Do the right thing, stop this nonsense now, and any other time it raises its ugly Islamic head.
