Racist tweets from a Dept. of Ed. speechwriter

Just a few examples:

"The West has a serious Indian issue. … These recent arrivals have no allegiance to our nation and seek to replace our culture and history with theirs."

"The Great Replacement is real no matter the Democrat or Republican flavor."

-About a report on Christian nationalism by reporter Tina Nguyen: “The Founding Fathers were Christian, and none of them had the surname Nguyen.

-About immigrants and their too-darn-hard-to-pronounce names: “Star Wars named paperwork Americans” and “This type of naivety is how we ended up with…all the other Stars Wars Americans that occupy our land.

-And about a video of a woman of color supposedly pushing an ICE agent: "Reminder, you have to CHIMP OUT."

Come visit us on Substack and meet Constanine Stanovich...PLUS you'll get to meet his boss who wants MAGA gun owners to "embrace...violence as a pillar of American politics."

By using vague words such as “acknowledge,” he carefully wordsmiths his way around making any explicit threats…but what his article is implicitly hinting at is very obvious - and very frightening:

"The right must unapologetically embrace the substance of the left’s complaint that the 2nd Amendment endorses violence as a pillar of American politics. …

"Instead of pretending our guns are only for outdoor sportsmanship…we should acknowledge what they represent and accept the violent responsibility they entail. …

"Guns kill people; they are made for violence. But this violent threat is and always has been the load-bearing wall of our house divided.

"Instead of begging the destructive and divisive left to allow gun ownership…we should acknowledge the violence implicit in arming ourselves for conflict."

Not all, I admit, but nevertheless, the statement should have been "Some of the Founding Fathers."
I guess that would have diluted his point?
