Liberals claim that Trump represents a threat to free speech.
Meanwhile, New York Attorney General Letitia James, during her sordid career, targeted the NRA, Vdare an anti-immigration group, Betar, a pro-Israel organization, and now local school boards.
Legal Insurrection has the story.
Attorney General Letitia James and Education Commissioner Betty A. Rosa issued a “Joint Guidance on Harassment and Bullying at School Board Meetings.”
The vaguely worded “Guidance Letter” warned school boards statewide that “misgendering” students—using pronouns based on biological sex—or publicly supporting sex-segregated sports and facilities could lead to board members’ removal from office.
The letter doesn’t just threaten board members directly, it warns against even allowing any questioning of transgender policies by members of the public.
Board members who permit the harassment of LGBTQ+ students may expose their school districts to liability under New York law.
Under the First Amendment, school board meetings are considered limited public fora. This means that school boards that allow public comment “may make reasonable, viewpoint-neutral rules governing the content of speech allowed,” including prohibiting all comments on a particular topic that would have discriminatory, harassing, or bullying effects.
School boards in New York should be mindful that their “meetings are an inappropriate venue to air personal or political grievances.” Members of the public can ask local school boards questions about a wide range of issues. But purely ideological statements opposing students’ rights under New York law are an unproductive diversion from boards’ important work. Such statements can harm children, who unwillingly find themselves held up to public scrutiny and recrimination by members of their school community.
SED and OAG caution New York school boards against exposing students to these harms. For example, school boards should not entertain baseless allegations that transgender students’ identities and experiences are illegitimate, or that their mere presence in school spaces and participation in school activities is harmful to other students. Nor should boards allow individuals to intentionally misgender district student
…boards of education that permit harassing and stigmatizing comments about LGBTQ students in public meetings may expose districts to liability under this law
Yes, this is a legal letter from the top prosecutor in New York warning school boards that they will be liable for civil rights violations if anyone at a public meeting questions the idea of men playing sports against women.
The First Amendment is functionally a dead letter in New York until either AG James is sent to jail or the Supreme Court intervenes. We’re watching the total destruction of freedom of expression in this country in real time by the very same people who are screaming that Trump is trampling ‘democratic norms’.
You can imagine their reaction if a red state AG had sent out a letter warning not to allow members of the public to comment at school board meetings about DEI. But the same people freaking out because Stephen Colbert couldn’t air an interview with a senate primary candidate think that this tyranny is the right side of history.

Leturdpile James is still walking around free? Way to go, AG Bondi. Focus on what’s important, like the long dead D-Bag pervert, Jeffy Epstain.
Yes, we’ve wondered how the holocaust and destruction of freedom happened when it did. How people could do what they did. Not anymore, because what was done then is being done now. It is as if a human-being like Letitia and all her ilk only looks like a human-being. What we see is a human-being body suit that is being unzipped with every controlling, manipulative word and action, ‘unburdened’ by shame, revealing the true monster-being.
If the words of the Declaration of Independence are to be taken seriously, and applied to our times, to live, to be free, to pursue happiness, then don’t you think that a second American revolution is fast approaching? To quote from America’s absolutely foundational document:
“….all Experience hath shewn, that Mankind [the real humans, not the monster imposters], are more disposed to suffer, while Evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the Forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long Train of Abuses and Usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a Design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their Right , it is their Duty, to throw off such Government , and to provide new Guards for their future Security….”
Just because your four year old wants to play with matches, doesn’t mean you must run out and buy him/her a box of matches. “Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:6 KJV. If your child wants to “change” sex, take your child out behind the barn and whip it out of him/her! Yes! A Spanking!
“could lead to board members’ removal from office”
That sure sounds like a threat. Of course it is, but it’s more. This is aimed at ANYONE who differs from the Dem’s dictates.
Yes, and Letrashia James doesn’t have the authority of power to remove board members from office. She’s still talking shit after AG Bondi gave her a free pass on arrest and prosecution.

Very Orwellian. The Left would never use the term “thought crimes,” in their covert attempts to install their ideologies into the minds of the public. Instead, they prefer to dress it up as “education.” But no matter how they try to sell their authoritarian mandates, it still smells like Democrat propaganda.
it is not a girls sport if boys are allowed to play in it. A little common sense would tell you that.
btw if you want all just call it whatever the sport is and not have 2 defining gender sports for it.
It’s not just the muscular, strength, or speed advantage of a typical male over a female’s.
It’s about allowing an “intact” Male who “identifies as a female” to strut naked, even “sporting an erection,” into the girls’ showers with them, and to insist that “she” has the “right” to do so due to “her” “gender identity.”
My suggestion, even though, like Associate Justice Katanji Brown Jackson I’m “not a Biologist” ?
If I had a 16-year-old granddaughter, that she’d brandish the gleaming, serrated stainless-steel steak knife I’d had have given her, and rehearsed her to snarl back at the Tranny in the girls’ locker room:
“Well, you’ll never be a woman. But after this, you’ll never be a man again, either! SO GET OUTTA HERE!”
