“In recent years there has been research revealing radical undertones in the books written and the illustrations drawn by Dr. Seuss.”
A national educators organization is telling schools to avoid reading Dr. Seuss because the children’s books allegedly have “racial undertones.” For more than 20 years, March 2 has been recognized as Read Across America Day in honor of Dr. Seuss’s birthday. The reading recognition day was founded by the National Education Association — the nation’s largest labor union — in 1998. This year’s theme is “Create and Celebrate Diversity.” Learning for Justice — a left-wing educators group — is demanding that Dr. Seuss be canceled. A prominent Virginia school district has taken marching orders and ordered its schools to avoid “connecting Read Across America Day with Dr. Seuss.”

“On January the 6th, I objected during the Electoral College certification, maybe you heard about it,” the senator said to loud applause
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) spoke a lot about loving America during his speech at CPAC, but he only got the crowd out of their seats when he bragged about his literal attempts to destroy it. “You know, on January the 6th, I objected during the Electoral College certification, maybe you heard about it,” the senator boasted as the crowd rose. As Hawley tried to continue, the audience, who gathered in Florida on Friday for an event that celebrates the Republican party’s most extreme positions, stood and cheered as the senator said, “I stood up. I stood up. And I said I said we ought to have a debate about election integrity.” But Hawley is lying. His actions on January 6th had nothing to do with debating “election integrity” and everything to do with currying favor with Trump and his die-hard supporters, who could help the senator’s political aspirations going forward.
