As we all have learned, especially over the past four years, if you are a Christian, conservative, Republican, or just a parent who is concerned about your kids, then you have a target on your back.

We all watched in horror as The American Federation of Teachers, under the control of Randi Weingarten, decided she and her left-leaning cohorts knew better than parents. Therefore as a result of her misguided egotistical rant, she encouraged Joe Biden’s DOJ to classify these caring moms and dads as domestic terrorists. As a result, parents across the US have been harassed by Biden’s DOJ and FBI, and accused of domestic terrorism and a threat to the safety and democracy of our country.

“This Natural Waterfall [in south Stafford] is one of the features that will be along the proposed Historic Ferry Farm to Cannon Ridge Waterfall Riverfront Trail. The waterfall is on over 1,000 acres of Conservation Easement riverfront land that runs for miles upstream on the Stafford side of the River into four Counties. Currently, there is no public access to the Waterfall except by boat on the Rappahannock River. The proposed trail would finally provide Public Access to the Conservation land.”

“We must secure access to the easement land before the developers try to create private access to the public lands. The Trails need to be Free to Stafford and Fredericksburg Residents. We should also give Spotsylvania the option to buy in as a regional park.”


Opinion

“Universities get about a trillion dollars a year from taxpayers. On average about 90%+ of contributions from university faculty and staff go to leftist causes and candidates.

So essentially we are being forced to not only subsidize the leftist indoctrination of our children. We’re being forced to subsidize the campaigns of the politicians who continuously advocate for more of your tax dollars going to hyper-leftist universities.

We write to you as individual members of the Manassas City School Board regarding the recent article “Metz Middle scores decline…” and the significant online discussion that ensued.

However, we reject the notion that a high share of ESOL students inevitably condemns Metz to its current level of performance. To move forward, we must thoughtfully and accurately identify the problems facing our middle school, and we firmly believe that our students can achieve at a higher level.

It’s easy to spend money when it’s not your own.

At the last Prince William County Board of Supervisors meeting of 2023, I spoke to the board about the massive cost of feeding board supervisors during their meetings. I showed a video of county residents waiting in food pantry lines.

The Prince William County Supervisors are up for re-election this year.

A Bristow homeowner’s group asked all incumbents and candidates for your Board of County Supervisors to state their positions on five contentious land use cases: Prince William Digital Gateway, Devlin Technology Park, John Marshall Commons Technology Park, Potomac Technology Park and Bristow Campus.

Predictably, five incumbent supervisors declined to respond. They were Ann Wheeler, Kenny Boddye, Margaret Franklin, Andrea Bailey and Victor Angry. These are the same five supervisors who voted against a resolution to prevent “lame duck” land use votes. Do I detect a trend here?

Since then, we have seen our education system destroyed and money wasted on an Equity Department that does nothing but pit our children against each other based on the color of their skin.

We have watched the school board do everything within their power to take parents out of our children’s education while they push gender ideology and anti-racist rhetoric in the classroom.

“I believe we have one of the greatest school systems in the country, and I’ve been proud to serve as chairman of the school board. We have made significant improvements in student success, safety and security, space and infrastructure, and salaries.”

But, has he and the other Democrats on the PWC school board actually made significant improvements to Prince William County Public Schools?


Opinion

Ann Wheeler’s anxiousness to schedule a vote on the controversial Prince William Digital Gateway rezoning before the Planning Office has even completed its review is hardly surprising. She has been in the tank for this project from the outset, and her blatant subservience to corporate masters was largely responsible for her electoral defeat.

Now shift the focus to her accomplices, who have thus far evaded the same level of accountability.
