Public schools don’t exist to educate. They exist to tyrranize, groom, and control. That’s the lesson today, as Charlie opens the show by interviewing Jaiden Rodriguez, the boy kicked out of school for his “Don’t Tread on Me” backpack patch. Then, Pastor Jack Hibbs talks about the California AG’s office suing his local school district to make sure teachers can groom children with impunity while keeping parents in the dark. Hawaii resident Ed Dowd discusses the tragic calamity on Maui.

Teacher Calls Kid’s ‘Don’t Tread on Me’ Flag Racist l Tomi Lahren is Fearless
Shame Tomi is a Deep Stater taking orders from Fox and she is Anti-Trump. We’d respect her more outside of specific issues like this. On this she is dead on. – Sgt Pat
The director then argued that the flag is associated with “hate groups,” linking to this weak article that cites a “graphic design scholar” who claimed that “some may now see the Gadsden flag as a symbol of intolerance and hate—or even racism.”
They cited @USEEOC , which admitted that the flag “originated in the Revolutionary War in a non-racial context”… But then said “However, whatever the historic origins and meaning of the symbol, it also has since been sometimes interpreted to convey racially-tinged messages…”
As you can hear his mom say in the video, Jaiden wanted to stand up for his (non-racist!) beliefs. So after he was kicked out of class, he asked his mom to take him to the news station to get the word out.
(He got the idea from a @tuttletwins book 💪🏽)

“There was painted a Rattle-Snake, with this modest motto under it, “Don’t tread on me.”… The power of fascination attributed to her, by a generous construction, may be understood to mean, that those who consider the liberty and blessings which America affords, and once come over to her, never afterwards leave her, but spend their lives with her.” – Benjamin Franklin – Kari Lake

- BIG WIN: Vanguard School Board rules that Jaiden is allowed to wear the ‘Don’t Tread on Me’ flag on his backpack after a teacher told him to remove it. Good wins “Upon learning of these events today, The Vanguard School Board of Directors called an emergency meeting. From Vanguard’s founding we have proudly supported our Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the ordered liberty that all Americans have enjoyed for almost 250 years. The Vanguard School recognizes the historical significance of the Gadsden flag and its place in history.” “This incident is an occasion for us to reaffirm our deep commitment to a classical education in support of these American principles.” “At this time, the Vanguard School Board and the District have informed the student’s family that he may attend school with the Gadsden flag patch visible on his backpack.” Collin Rugg
- While it’s absurd to see that this child was kicked out of class for simply wearing a “Don’t Tread On Me” patch on his book-bag, it’s INCREDIBLE to see his mom going to bat for him against the administration. We need more Mama Bears. – CJ Pearson
