The school board in Sunol Glen School Unified School District in California has voted to allow only the state flag and the U.S. flag to fly over school buildings, outraging many people on the left.

Liberals obviously want to be able to fly the LGBT pride flag and BLM flags at school buildings and this measure would prevent that.

This is an example of what can be done when parents retake control of their local school boards.

Parents outraged after California school votes to forbid banners other than American, state flag

Parents and staff are claiming a California school district is targeting LGBTQ Pride flags after the board voted to forbid the display of banners other than the American or California state flags.

Trustees representing the Sunol Glen School Unified School District in the East Bay, which serves 270 K-8 students, engaged in a tense exchange with attendees at a Tuesday meeting.

“The symbol of the flag solidifies that message,” Sunol Glen Superintendent and Principal Molleen Barnes said during Tuesday’s meeting. “Tonight, with this resolution, our board members have been clear where they stand.”

Barnes also noted that the school has previously displayed Pride flags to remind LGBTQ students and families they “are a place of equity and inclusivity.”

“When a school starts endorsing any single particular point of view, that can be divisive,” Board President Ryan Jergensen said when asked to explain the proposed policy. “The school should be inclusive of all. Individual views are irrelevant. I prefer to seek more for what unites us as a school.”

People on both sides of the issue turned out.

Opposing rallies happening now. At 6, the Sunol Glen School District will consider banning any flag besides the American & California flag from being displayed. Some say that impacts groups like the LGBTQ+ community, while others support the measure. Story at 11 @abc7newsbayarea pic.twitter.com/WXhPyLZM7A

This was the right decision.

Nicolás Maduro, the dictator of Venezuela, and Xi Jinping, the Chinese dictator, had a pivotal meeting on Wednesday, 13, at the Great Hall of the People, located in the capital of China, Beijing. Their discussions centered on the complex diplomatic and trade relations that bind their countries.

Maduro, on his first visit to China since 2018, concluded his journey, which included stops in major Chinese cities such as Shenzhen and Shanghai, as well as the Shandong province.

It was a day marked by significant signings, totaling 31 cooperation agreements between the communist nations. These agreements spanned a wide range of areas, from agriculture to culture, encompassing economy, trade, energy, mining, education, science, technology, industry, and aerospace development.

Through “X” (formerly known as Twitter), Venezuela’s Foreign Minister, Yván Gil, announced that the meeting between Maduro and Xi Jinping resulted in an agreement that elevated the bilateral relations between China and Venezuela to a “full-fledged strategic partnership.”

Particularly noteworthy was Venezuela’s commitment to support the Chinese initiative known as the New Silk Road, an ambitious Chinese project aimed at strengthening global trade infrastructure and increasing political influence.

Furthermore, there was a consensus on the need to enhance communication between both totalitarian regimes, further deepening the bilateral ties that date back to 1974 and were substantially strengthened during the tenure of the late Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chávez (1999-2013).

Maduro, in his social media posts, expressed that the two nations are now writing a “new chapter in their relations,” demonstrating a promising optimism about the future of Sino-Venezuelan cooperation.

The relationship between Maduro and Jinping serves as evidence of how communism has acted to regain global power and exert even more influence within the geopolitical context.

The dangers of Maduro and Jinping’s meeting are even more concerning when considering the visit of Kim Jong-Un, the dictator of North Korea, to Russia. He was received by President Vladimir Putin, as reported by TGP.

The current advance of totalitarian regimes worldwide is proof that the West has not yet grasped the magnitude of the problem unleashed by the communists.
