        God no. They should retweet John Oliver's story from last night and then GO BACK TO TALKING ABOUT HEALTH CARE.

        We should cast it for what it is: criticism of the government. Also separate curriculum (always political) from speech. In many of these CRT bans, speech (by teachers) is also outlawed. It is a freedom issue. Does the GOP want to say you can't criticize the government?

        I'll be curious to see if that happens, or if Dems insist on continuing to play to the fears & fervor of the right.

        Oppose the GOP's aggressive bans, don't support teaching CRT in schools, sounds like the winning play imo
