Blind leading the blind

Jim Runstead

In another example of political overreach, state Sen. Jim Runstead (R-White Lake), along with seven other state senators, sent a letter urging the Michigan Association of School Boards (MASB) to withdraw its membership and affiliation from the national organization for its urging of the U.S. Justice Department “to investigate and prosecute parents as ‘domestic terrorists.’” It appears it’s all over parents out-of-control protests at school board meetings over purported teaching of “critical race theory” – or more realistically, the ability of schools to teach about different races, nationalities and historical perspectives. His office did not return phone calls.
