California governor sends his children to private school as local public schools remain closed

Just The News: California Gov. Gavin Newsom is sending his children to attend modified in-person instruction at a private school even as the public schools that serve his local district remain closed for now.

Newsom’s children are “phasing back into school,” he told media on Friday, “and we are phasing out of our very challenging distance learning that we’ve been doing, so many parents are doing up and down the state.” more here

  1. How are private schools exempt from the same rules applied to the very same circumstances — a school, with teachers and children, presumably sitting at desks, walking hallways, eating lunches, etc?

    Oh, I get it. A Teachers’ union. Let’s just be clear. This isn’t about a virus or protecting children and families from anything.

  2. …no matter how good you think your society is, how equal, how level, one person’s going to be on top giving orders from an air conditioned stateroom, and another person’s going to be cleaning up the shit Antifa throws on the streets on a nightly basis.

    P.J. O’Rourke puts this a bit better in his work “Eat The Rich”…

    “It’s interesting how-level society as you will-someone always turns out on top. I was thinking this as I was sitting in the office of the Minister for Consumer, Religious, Youth and Stport Affairs. It wasn’t a lavish office by U.S. Cabinet Secretary standards, but it was lagom-two big, joined suites on a corner looking down the street to Lake Malaren. The walls were painted fashionable teal. The furniture was hip and blond. All salaries in Sweden may come out, after taxes, somewhat the same. But who get the room with the view? Who flies off to European Union cheese-food milk-fat-content subcommittee negotiating sessons on the sunny isles of Greece? And opera tickets are heavily underwritten by the Swedish government. What a releif to the working stiff. “Bundle up the kids, Helga, we’re all going to seee Claude Debussy’s “Pelleas et Melisande”!””

    …but the point remains, that someone WILL be on TOP, and that someone WILL rule YOU for HIS benefit and NOT YOURS…

    “It would be newsworthy if this were not the case. Of course he exempts his own kids. That is what Democrat politicians do.”

    …ask Hunter Biden how THAT works…

    …the devil doesn’t have many tricks, but he DOES always have a fresh generation to try the SAME tricks on. That’s why so many stories in the Bible sound so familiar, he’s done them before…and before…and before…but all you need to do is convince the kids their elders are stupid and that THEY, the kids, know better (which isn’t hard to do from about 2 on), add to that media insulation, schools not teaching history, and the fact that it is the doom of men that they forget, and here we are all over again…

  6. On Poland: It’s too bad that our WWII vets never wanted to talk about “The War.” They could have shared all the grist and gristle of just how horrific it is when totalitarian gov’ts take power.
