‘Pretextual war on parents’: NSBA letter comparing parents to domestic terrorists was ordered by Biden’s education secretary, email shows

The highly controversial National School Boards Association letter sent to President Joe Biden that compared protesting parents to domestic terrorists and led the FBI to use counterterrorism tactics against parents was drafted at the direction of Biden’s education secretary, Miguel Cardona, a newly obtained email indicates.

The potential bombshell — which raises serious concerns that the Biden administration engaged in a preconceived war on concerned American parents — was revealed in an Oct. 5 email exchange between two of the NSBA’s board members, Marnie Maldonado and Kristi Swett.

In the exchange, Swett, who serves as the association’s secretary-treasurer, responded to concerns from Maldonado about the letter by recounting that interim CEO Chip Slaven had “told the [board] officers he was writing a letter to provide information to the White House, from a request by Secretary Cardona.”

The email communication was unearthed by the activist group Parents Defending Education through a Freedom of Information Act request.

Parents Defending Education previously reported that the NSBA had coordinated with the White House and the Department of Justice for weeks prior to the sending of the letter, notifying state directors that “a letter requesting federal assistance would be sent.” The association even allegedly altered the letter’s text at the White House’s request. – READ MORE
