According to the interim report released on March 21 by the House Committee on the Judiciary and its Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government, there is more than enough evidence to prove that the National School Boards Association (NSBA), working in coordination with the Biden administration, created out of whole cloth the pressing need for federal investigation of parents. Twenty-five of those parents were investigated, but not a single charge was brought, indicating that the entire outrage was “manufactured” with no “legitimate basis,” according to the committee.

In September 2021, in response to parents protesting what they perceived to be major educational issues brought to light during the Covid-inspired lockdowns, Viola Garcia and Chip Slaven, president and CEO of NSBA, respectively, signed a letter to the White House stating, “America’s public schools and its education leaders are under an immediate threat. The National School Boards Association … respectfully asks for federal law enforcement and other assistance to deal with the growing number of threats of violence and acts of intimidation occurring across the nation.… NSBA believes immediate assistance is required.”

Only five days after receiving the letter, Attorney General Merrick Garland issued his instructions directing “the FBI and U.S. Attorneys’ Offices to meet in the next 30 days … to discuss strategies for addressing this disturbing trend,” weaponizing the agencies under his command to go after American citizens exercising their First Amendment-protected rights.
