In yet another embarrassment to President Joe Biden, Education Secretary Miguel Cardona deleted an X post in which he advocated listening to “Hip Hop” that promotes sexual perversion.
Not that sexual perversion would embarrass anyone in the Biden administration. After all, it hired a bald sadist and part-time luggage thief to help run the nation’s nuclear waste disposal program. But this time, the problem isn’t a pervert in heels, dresses, and lipstick.
It’s the top official in the education industry. Even Biden’s hard leftists, it seems, have their limits, particularly when a Cabinet secretary is caught advocating filth.
The Post
Though Carodna deleted his recommended list of music, the internet is forever, and a concerned homeschooling Mom preserved it.
“A little known fact about me: I love hip-hip To celebrate the 50th anniversary of hip-hop, I”m sharing my #EdBusTour23 playlist.”
There followed some of the fare to which Cardona listens on the road as he buses from school to school to pretend he is improving education.
Tops on his D.O.P.E bus tour playlist was Juicy by a Biggie Small, aka The Notorious B.I.G., a hardened criminal killed in a drive-by shooting.
The galactically stupid “lyrics” in that ghetto hymn weren’t those that infuriated mothers who think Cardona should promote good literature and not the trash to which he listens.
No. 2 on Cardona’s list was Still Not A Player, by another estimable personage called Big Pun, which is short for Big Punisher.
The federal education secretary thinks kids should listen to these lyrics:
Mama, I’m thick, huh? I’ll rip my pr**k through your hooters
I’m sick, you couldn’t measure my d**k with six rulers
Hold up, chula, I’m all about gettin’ loot
But I’ll knock that boot if you out to get koofed
I don’t wanna be a player no more
I’m not a player, I just f**k a lot
But Big Punisher still got what you’re lookin’ for
Uptown, baby, uptown
I don’t wanna be a player no more
I’m not a player, I just f**k a lot
But you know Big Pun and Joe still down by law
Who’s down to f**k tonight?
I love ’em butter pecan to blackberry molass’
I don’t discriminate, I regulate every shade of the a**
Long as you show class and pass my test
Fat a** and breasts, highly intelligent bachelorettes
That’s the best, I won’t settle for less
That’s not all of it, but you get the idea.
The dearly departed Tupac Shakur is another hardened criminal with whom Cardona warbles along. He too was killed in a drive-by shooting, a suspect in which was Cardona’s other muse, Biggie Smalls.
It appears that “D.O.P.E” accurately describes Cardona.
Mothers React
Understandably, those concerned that schools kids can’t read, largely because of public schools, cracked him on the knuckles.
“Are you serious,” Moms for Liberty wrote, citing lyrics in Still Not A Player. “Only 1/3 of American public school students are reading on grade level and you are riding around the country promoting profanity.”
“Listen to what you want at the gym, but when you are around children- maybe stop with the sex talk?” Moms for Liberty cofounder Tiffany Justice posted on X. “Is that really too much to ask @SecCardona?”
Failing Schools
Apparently that is too much to ask. When he’s not jamming to Big Pun and Biggie Smalls, he’s is promoting “equity” in schools. Cardona worries not about reading and writing.
In October last year, Cardona announced that DOE would spend $116 million on “on equity and accessibility for students.” His department, he said, is focused on “investing in schools and communities that have shown a commitment to intentionally serving students and closing opportunity gaps based on race, place, and circumstance in America.”
During “Black History Month” last year, he tweeted that hiring black teachers is a “key priority:”
One of my key priorities is elevating & encouraging teacher diversity. Black male educators play a valuable role in our education system. Representation in the classroom matters & we know it can have powerful & lasting effects on students.
Cardona could always ask some of his hip-hop heroes to break from shooting each other and teach some music classes, but anyway, asked about declining math and reading scores among students, Cardona replied that “mental health support access is a foundational part of the experience for our students and staff.”
“If we’re serious about supporting our students’ mental health, we need to make sure we’re using every dollar available towards mental health support,” he wrote on X in July.
While Cardona travels the country on the taxpayers’ dime for photo ops at schools and yammers about “mental health,” some of those same schools are wrecking education.
As The New American reported last week, the schools in Portland, Oregon, are poised to eliminate failing grades for cheating and refusing to do schoolwork. Other systems have done likewise.
Cardona has yet to divulge his plans to arrest declining test scores in reading, writing, and arithmetic. Maybe the dog ate them.
