Winsome Sears says CRT weaved into school curriculum

 Washington Examiner:

Virginia Lieutenant Gov.-elect Winsome Sears blasted critical race theory on CNN Sunday, insisting that the ideology is "weaved" into the state's school curriculum.

Sears lambasted CRT on CNN's State of the Union, emphasizing the importance of teaching children "the good, the bad, and the ugly" of American history.

"You oppose critical race theory being taught in schools, which I should say is not part of Virginia's curriculum," CNN host Dana Bash told Sears."You did say, though, that the good and the bad of American history should be taught, and we should also tell viewers that you're the former vice president of the Virginia Board of Education."

"Explain how you think race should be taught in Virginia public schools," Bash asked.

Sears disagreed with the notion that CRT is not part of Virginia's curriculum.

"I beg to differ that CRT is not taught ... It is part of the curriculum, it's weaved in and out of the curriculum," Sears explained. "In fact, in 2015, former governor who was just defeated, McAuliffe , his state Board of Education had information on how to teach it. So it's weaved in."

...

The left and proponents of CRT try to make semantic arguments to cover up the teaching of  CRT and Sears is not letting them get away with it.  One of those dodges is that they are just teaching history, but when you tell young people that they were borns as oppressors or victims that is not history and it is also totally untrue.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t

Bin Laden's concern about Zarqawi's remains

James Robbins: ... Bin Laden suggests that President Bush should allow Zarqawi’s body to be returned to his family in Jordan, but this is a matter that is up to the Jordanian government, which so far has not shown much interest in facilitating a homecoming. Bin Laden mocks King Abdullah II, calling him a Coalition minion, and asking “w hat scares you about Abu Musab after he’s dead? You know that his funeral, if allowed to happen, would be a huge funeral showing the extent of sympathy with the mujahedin.” A large crowd would definitely turn out, though most people would be on hand to demonstrate their anger and disgust. Last November’s hotel bombings in Amman , masterminded by Zarqawi, are still fresh in people’s memory, and mentioning them to Jordanians has the same visceral impact as memory of the 9/11 attacks does here. Jordan has adopted a zero-tolerance policy towards those who choose to mourn the country’s least favorite son, and four opposition members of parliament who paid con
