News Corner

An amazing thing happened Tuesday morning in Rockville – and our Party did not organize it.

Several hundred people showed up for a rally at the Board of Education demanding back the ability to protect their young kids from participating in discussions and material regarding sex and gender transitioning in the public schools. They believe that for kids from kindergarten to 5^th grade to have sexual content and government sponsored discussions of changing their sex provided them by folks other than their parents or guardians is wrong. They consider it religious freedom to raise their children morally without government interference.

It was organized by people of faith, majority Muslim with Christian & Jewish participants. Many, if not most, were immigrants from overseas who had come here for the promise of freedom and democracy. 

Kristen Mink, a new and unique member of the County Council, who has advocated for police defunding while at the same time phoning them for personal assistance - and who's led hate rallies against UARE.US - called out Muslim parents for being on the same side as "white supremacists" at the Board meeting.

I didn’t see it on the local news, but it was in the local press and picked up by FOX nationally. Read former State Senate candidate Anita Cox’s article.  The local press had a biased story noting about 60 people were there, the videos show hundreds of Moms, Dads and neighbors, some in traditional dress, who’d taken off time from work or home to show their deep concern. Many of them were from countries where a demonstration like this would lead to arrest, but they came anyway.

A Liberal Circular Firing Squad took place at the Board of Education building on Tuesday June 6^th. Could it signal the start of a red wave?

For conservatives that had hoped for a local “red wave” in the November 2022 election, the demonstration that took place on June 6^th outside the Montgomery County Public School (MCPS) headquarters in Rockville may prove to be that long awaited turning point. I had been notified about an “Urgent Call to Action” by the Family and Religious Right (FRRF) group that organized the protest and I arrived at the headquarters building about one hour into the protest, during my lunch hour. What I witnessed was an incredible sight (politically speaking) - two constituencies of diehard liberal voters standing across from each other separated by a road and their opinion on what exactly freedom means. The issue: their kids and the newly approved MCPS “inclusive” curriculum that threatens to force-feed indoctrination through a selection of books such as Pride Puppy. In other words the woke-mob crossed the line in coming for their kids.

Gene Schaerr:  Safeguarding Our Freedoms

By Ann Guthrie Hingston

The freedoms guaranteed by the First Amendment are the underpinnings of our democracy. These are the freedoms for Americans to assemble, worship in the manner we choose, petition our government, operate a free press and, most importantly, speak freely without threat of government interference.

At a time when these rights are being challenged, we celebrate Gene Schaerr, a Derwood Republican and nationally recognized attorney, for using his exemplary legal skills to safeguard our freedoms and privacy.  We thank him and Martha, his wife and a Central Committee member, for their continuing generosity to the Republican party.  On Saturday, June 24 at the MCGOP Summer Soiree, Gene Schaerr will be a featured speaker.
