On Wednesday, Republican Senator Marsha Blackburn asked Attorney General Merrick Garland if parents who protest at school board meetings belong in the same category as the terrorists who carried out the Oklahoma City bombings.
Blackburn’s comments reference a letter from the National School Board Association to President Joe Biden that accused concerned parents of “domestic terrorism” and possibly violating the Patriot Act.
The exchange took place as Garland testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee. RELATED: Amazon Set To Release ‘Mayor Pete,’ A Documentary On How Pete And Chasten Buttigieg ‘Changed History’ Blackburn Grills Garland
Blackburn asked Garland about an October 4th memo that showed how local law enforcement and the Federal Bureau of Investigation could collaborate for “discussion of strategies for addressing threats against school administrators, board members, teachers, and staff.”
“Knowing that you really helped bring to justice those that caused the Oklahoma City bombing,” Blackburn said to Garland , “would you really, honestly, put parents in the same category as a Terry Nichols or a Timothy McVeigh?”
“My God,” Garland immediately replied. “Absolutely not.”
Blackburn responded, “Then why, why would you ever release a memo? I mean, did you write that memo? Did staff write that memo? What would have led you to do this? It is so over the top.”

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
