The president of the National Education Association (NEA) was mocked over the weekend for giving a "totally unhinged" speech that reminded critics of a comedy skit from a famous American TV show. 

NEA President Becky Pringle banged on the podium, flailed her hands in the air and screamed about winning "all the things" repeatedly at the NEA's Annual Meeting and Representative Assembly (RA) in Philadelphia. X critics compared the moment to an iconic scene with Dwight Schrute from "The Office." 

During the screechy speech, Pringle called for transformative social justice change in the education system in the pursuit of equity.

"To unite not just our members, but the nation to reclaim public education as a common good, as the foundation of our democracy, and then transform it into something it was never designed to be—a racially and socially just and equitable system," Pringle said. "We worked hard to rid ourselves of a tyrannical, deceitful, and corrupt White House, but the reality is that the seeds that were sown during that horrible season continue to germinate." 

"We are the ones who help shape the heart of this nation's hope and dreams. We are the ones who hold steadfast to the belief in the plausibility of the possible. We are the heirs of all who did this work before us. We must keep going. NEA Delegates, we can do this work. We must do this work," she added.  

"Our students are depending on us to win all the things," Pringle said, while continuing her screechy pitch.  "All the things! All the things! All the things."

Critics, such as school choice advocate Corey DeAngelis called her speech "off-the-rails" and compared it to a scene from "The Office." 

"These power-hungry control freaks think they own your kids. They're in a cult that worships government and detests parents. It's time to defund teachers unions and allow the money to follow the child," Corey DeAngelis told Fox News Digital. "Becky Pringle pulled a Dwight Schrute. She is off-the-rails and desperate to maintain control over the minds of other people’s children."

The creators of Dwight's speech based his over-the-top performance upon real speeches by Italian fascist dictator Benito Mussolini.

"Blood alone moves the wheels of history!" Schrute said in the episode. "It has been a lifetime struggle. A never-ending fight. I say to you, and you will understand that it is a privilege to fight! We are warriors!… Rise and be worthy of this historical hour! No revolution is worth anything unless it can defend itself! …We must never acquiesce, for it is together, TOGETHER, THAT WE PREVAIL!

Critics said Pringle's speech carried similar screechy riffs and mannerisms. Pringle proposed transforming the education system with social justice. 

"Her overwrought, hyper-partisan tirade amounted to an advertisement for school choice," said Heritage Foundation research fellow, Jason Bedrick, in a statement to Fox News Digital.

"During her speech, Pringle claimed the NEA would 'continue to embrace the profound trust that has been placed in' them. Apparently, she hasn't seen the polls showing record-low public trust in public schools," he added. "Even Pringle's over-the-top, Dwight Schrute-like theatrics can't distract from her union's role in the dismal state of education in this country, from keeping schools closed for far too long during COVID, to shielding bad teachers from accountability--all at the expense of students' learning."

Political consultant, Matt Dole, reached a similar conclusion, believing the fictitious Schrute was Pringle's "speech coach." 

It wasn't the first time critics drew the comparison. 

During last year's RA speech, the National Review's Jack Crowe said, "Pringle believes she’s a revolutionary; that is the only conclusion to be drawn from the truly unhinged speech she delivered."

"Channeling Dwight Schrute, Pringle urges her colleagues, not to raise the nation’s embarrassing reading and math scores, no, but to ‘fight for freedom,’ the National Review added. 

Fox News Digital contacted the NEA for comment but did not immediately receive a response.  

Two anti-Israel protesters were arrested at NASCAR’s second annual Chicago Street Race on Sunday after locking themselves inside the fence for 40 minutes. 

The protesters held up a sign that read, "Pritzker: We charge genocide" and "Bombs for Gaza, prisons for Illinois" while sitting on top of the fence. 

Pritzker is in reference to Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker, who protesters called out for using Illinois "state dollars to finance Israel’s genocidal campaign [in] Palestine."

Organizers of the protest released a statement that said the act was done to condemn "local, state and federal governments’ ongoing genocide and mass imprisonment agenda."

The statement also said it condemned NASCAR driver Alon Day, who is Jewish and has publicly shown his support for Israel in its war against Hamas.

"Organizers also condemn the attempt made by Chicago city officials and NASCAR to manufacture consent for Israel’s mass death campaign by using the race as a staging ground for ‘proud Zionist’ driver Alon Day’s Israeli propaganda (although, it seems Day’s racing skills have made this attempt an uphill battle)," the statement read, per the City Bureau’s Grace Del Vecchio.

ISRAELI NASCAR DRIVER ALON DAY TO PAY HOMAGE TO HOSTAGES AT UPCOMING RACE, SLAMS RISE OF ANTISEMITISM

The organizers poked fun at Day for wrecking his No. 45 Chevy Camaro after a mishap under a yellow caution flag during a practice session on Saturday. Day crashed into Justin Allgaier’s stationary vehicle after an earlier collision with a tire barrier. Day was unaware of the hazard, and "when I came there, I mean, on my side, I couldn’t hear anything."

Day recently spoke with Fox News Digital about how he was hoping to do more than just racing in Chicago this weekend.

Day, the lone Israeli driver in NASCAR, wanted to pay homage to those still held captive by Hamas after its Oct. 7 terrorist attacks. He drove his Camaro for Alpha Prime Racing, with Jet Support Services inc. (JSSI) and Setna iO serving as two of the sponsors. 

Day’s car was wrapped with JSSI-branded blue and white, which are the colors of the Israeli flag. The car also had the Hebrew word for life on it, חי, in tribute to those being held captive. But unfortunately for him, he wasn’t able to race on Sunday after the wreck because Alpha Prime Racing didn’t have a backup car for him. 

Day said he has five friends who are among the 116 people still believed to be held captive by Hamas. 

"I think I’m more motivated than ever. I won four times, the European Championship, and I always did it for my own success," Day said. "Like all of us, we’re human. We try to be the best we can. We try to win [championships] for ourselves.

"I think this time something a bit [changed] in me – doing that not only for myself but actually for the whole country, for the hostages, obviously for the [Israeli] soldiers, for the Jewish community in general here in the United States – I’m motivated by something else, by the war, by friends that are still hostages. This is what actually wants me to push to do even better."

Day also said in the interview with Fox News Digital that he believes anti-Israel agitators made the streets of Chicago dangerous. 

"The pro-Hamas protests on the streets, especially in the streets of Chicago, which is actually getting really dangerous. I was there for a couple of days, like a week ago, and I felt the need to check that I’m not wearing anything that can identify myself as Jewish," he said. "I mean, this is how bad it is. Sounds like Germany in the ‘30s that I need to hide my Judaism."

The organizers of the protest also demanded that "President Joe Biden call for a permanent cease-fire and for the U.S. to cut all aid to Israel, including local and state governments" and condemned Pritzker’s plan to spend "over $900 million to build two new prisons in Illinois."
