‘Born For This’ - The Nation’s Largest Teachers’ Union ‘Preps Teachers To Fight Against Incoming Trump Administration’

Haley Strack at The National Review reports National Education Association (NEA) Staffers hosted an on-line webinar titled Preparing for a Second Trump Administration, in which they advised Teachers how to combat the incoming President’s policy agenda and advance pro-illegal immigration and pro-social justice rhetoric.  Officials covered a number of other issues, including Trump’s stance on illegal immigration. “We begin by acknowledging that we meet on the traditional lands of many Indigenous People, land upon which participants of this call live and work,” said Caitlin Ehlers, who serves as the Board Director of the Student Washington Education Association, during the Zoom-held webinar, before discussing President-Elect Donald Trump. “Our President-Elect is threatening to annex Kalaallit Nunaat, AKA, Greenland and his coalition is directly responsible for land grabs and eco-savage from the Great Plains to the Amazon.
