We've asked before if anyone can name one competent person in the Biden administration — just some appointee who's doing his or her job well. And we can't think of one. They're all a disaster.
Education Secretary Miguel Cardona is among those losers. Not only do we have the vice president flying around and lying about Florida's black history curriculum, but the Secretary of Education is also lying about it, saying that Florida's leaders are trying to "censor history." Some sort of talking point must have gone out this week.
I refuse to stay silent as Florida’s leaders try to censor history, gaslighting communities of color.

Our children need to know our history, the good and the ugly parts, so that we can raise a generation who will not repeat its mistakes.
Has Cardona even read Florida's history curriculum? Of course not.

What history is being censored?

Do you guys get an email for these talking points or just have a meeting?

This is gaslighting

Clearly the talking point memo went out and now you're all in line with the current smear/lie of the day. Resign, you hack. #SchoolChoice

Still trying to recover from your awful tweet about teachers from earlier in the week?

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt.

Florida is focused on teaching true and accurate African American history.
If you actually read our standards you’d know that. https://t.co/e8lmPtq2C7

Just remove the progressives from teaching and we will be fine. https://t.co/MGd8kl2bsj

Did you do any research into the curriculum? Of course not. Too busy bowing to every one of Randi’s demands.

LOL! Florida's gaslighting? That 1619 crap he wants taught is ultimate gaslighting.

You sounded just like VP Harris there for a moment...you guys have pulled one small comment completely out of context so you can frame what is a non-issue into something to slander DeSantis and rile up your audience...Shame on you.

They're desperate for a Trump vs. Biden rematch.
Every reference to slavery in the FL curriculum, verbatim, lifted directly from the text of the document. You are the one who is lying. You're counting on people to take you at your word and not read for themselves. https://t.co/Lw0O28Mv3v

You should have stayed silent to avoid the fool. But, alas, we now know who you are.

He should have stayed silent, or at least read Florida's black history curriculum before posting this. And this is the Secretary of Education we're talking about.
