David Campbell’s Child Pornography Case at Butler Tech: The real danger lurking behind the teaching profession

I couldn’t talk about it at the time in August when David Campbell was indicted on 23 counts of child pornography.  I know him a bit; he runs the Butler Tech robotics division as the director.  I want to think that Butler Tech does good things for kids who need opportunities, so the story of yet another teacher who has sexual problems is just piling on at this point.  I’d be happy to hear that there is any teacher who is happily functioning productively these days because radicalism has taken over the profession in such devastating ways.  And this news only confirms its tragedy.  But more than anything, I was serving on a grand jury in the next county that involved many of the same kinds of cases and investigations. I would contaminate the cases I was hearing testimony to by providing comments.  And it was during this grand jury session, I heard about Campbell, which bothered me quite a lot.  Because I had known this guy, I shook his hand and worked with him on several occasions.  Twenty-three counts is a lot, and because I was a foreman on that grand jury, I had the context as to just what those charges were and how prosecutors presented the case.  And what kind of evidence has to be produced to get such a broad indictment.  Knowing all that, the chances of David Campbell being innocent of those charges are slim.  For my cases, I had to watch much evidence of what child pornography is, what it means to possess it, and peddle it by sending it to someone else.  When that information goes to the IP address on your personal computer, there is no way it could have gotten there unless he wanted to obtain it freely. 

Until my grand jury service, I had never seen child pornography, and specifically anal sex.  I have heard people talk about it, but there was a part of me that thought the possibility of applying sexual applications to a bodily exit was impossible.  I could not see how such a thing could be considered sexual, let alone to have fully grown adults apply such a technique to children.  It’s one thing for people to say something about it; it’s another to see.  For several child pornography cases, I had to see things in testimony that I had thought were previously impossible.  These cases were essentially the same as what Dave Campbell was being indicted for, so it wasn’t good.  And what was worse was a look into that world where so much of this child pornography was out there.  It wasn’t unique and hard to find.  It was abundant and detrimental.  The amount of people that were involved in this child pornography network was very high. And the cause of it was vast and highly destructive.  But any claim that a person in his position could make that the pornography accidently ended up on his computer and that he was innocent of the charges was an almost next-to-nothing chance.  I have gone my entire life up to this point not seeing anything close to resembling child pornography, so it’s certainly easy to avoid until I served on a grand jury where I had to see evidence in cases like the one charging Dave Campbell.  So that made me even more angry about it, and I wasn’t going to comment until my jury service was over, which it is now.  And to say I’m disappointed again by the Butler Tech teachers would be a vast understatement.

It is impossible to mentor young people if anybody allows their mind to consume child pornography in any state.  I can’t understand any sexual practice that does not involve a perfect recreation area applied to a female application process in the way that makes a baby.  Sex is designed to be a bottomless pit of perversion to provide the kind of stimuli it takes to procreate.  And that, by design, should only happen a few times in a person’s life, enough to produce a few kids.  Sexual lifestyles cannot be a hobby like building model airplanes.  If you are always looking for perversions to stay interested in it, you are going to go insane.  It takes the intellect of a human being not to act out of primal cravings like some dog humping the leg of a chair whenever they get excited.  Humans are supposed to rise above that intellect to higher places.  And child pornography has no place in a healthy society, especially among teachers who are teaching young people.  Once that line has been crossed, there is no going back.  No reform for David Campbell will allow him to teach children again.  But the worst part of this case is that he’s not alone.  Under the current woke rules of entry, the teaching profession is filled with these broken types of people.  And my grand jury experience showed me just how vast this network is.  It would be sad if it were only one child.  And I would consider experiencing sex with that one child a capital offense with at least life in jail.  But I saw a video with hundreds and hundreds of different kids, which is a peek into a very dark world that, at the very minimum, has to be defunded and disabled.  There is no redeeming value for people convicted of child pornography. 

The more people I know in the world, the more disappointed I am with their conduct.  Dave Campbell, when you meet him, gives off no trace that he would be so interested in child pornography.  He acted like a perfectly average person.  So, knowing all this only leads to my suspicion of how many teaching professionals are doing this.  And based on my personal experience, not just with this case but over the years, it is much higher than 1% of the population.  This is a dire situation considering just nearby Lakota schools, which are also in Butler County.  It’s why parents were so upset at the behavior of the Lakota superintendent when he indicated any sexual attractiveness to children in a police report taken under questioning.  People know how dangerous this child pornography issue is and how many kids are being pulled into it by trusted adults, only to be ruined forever in such devastating ways. By the time some of these teachers talk and share stories in the teacher’s lounge, we are seeing a vast network of well-paid people with way too much recreational time on their hands to feed these obsessive traits of unhealthy sex practices.  It’s bad enough when it’s adults who explore all these permissive lifestyles of pornographic sex practices.  Because those lifestyles don’t generate excitement any longer, turning to the perversion of child pornography is a common step, not a unique one.  It breeds participants in the teaching profession because they have access to so many children, and their high rate of pay and short working hours give them too much time to feed a destructive personality disorder that is too easily concealed by public facades of the teaching profession.  I think there are a lot of Dave Campbells out there; they just haven’t been caught yet because it takes so much time to collect the evidence, and the prosecutors can’t get them all, especially the borderline cases, which is even worse in the context of Dave Campbell from Butler Tech.

The Supreme Court Rules in Favor of Vanessa Wells and Against Lakota Schools: Lawyers run these public enterprises and that has to end

I think the courts are a poor substitute for dueling.  We’ve tried to bring a civil discourse to conflict management, but it hasn’t worked, and that is undoubtedly the lesson at Lakota.  We tried to help that public school in Butler County, Ohio.  But they are infested with dangerous progressive policies and expensive legal advice, which they have been wasting money on for years.  And they got caught in a lot of mess over the last few years, which I think only goes in one direction.  Once President Trump is back in the White House, there will be significant reforms to how schools are funded and managed, starting with the Department of Education, and lots of things will change in the public school system and the lawyers who run them.  And to that point, a small window of that kind of change was seen when the Vanessa Wells case against Lakota schools was heard by the Supreme Court of Ohio and found that Lakota had been deceptive in their attempts to conceal information from the public and they awarded Vanessa her information request and legal fees reimbursed.  It’s a story many of us thought from the beginning Vanessa Wells would win.  She’s brilliant on legal matters and is more intelligent about attorney issues than most practicing lawyers.  So they weren’t prepared for her and a small army of diligent moms, one of which did get elected to the school board, which caused them all kinds of problems.  Because they weren’t prepared for opinions, they couldn’t control those opinions through their standard practice of restricted public disclosure.  The Supreme Court of Ohio found that Lakota had acted unlawfully in its desire to conceal public disclosure regarding the actions of their superintendent at the time, Matt Miller, who eventually resigned over his actions once his bizarre threats of lawsuits did not gain traction.

When it was learned through a police report the kind of life that the superintendent was living, many parents didn’t want to pay his salary.  This issue won’t go away; there will be a lot more of this in the future, especially now that the Supreme Court has ruled the way it has in this Wells case.  I happen to know Vanessa very well.  Interestingly, many of my personal friends are involved in Supreme Court cases, but this one was big, and the case law that spawns off it indicates the future of education.  Essentially, public entities do not get to conceal information important to managing their taxpayer-funded endeavors.  Lakota schools got caught trying to hide the bad behavior of its employees from the public, which was revealed clearly in the email correspondence that the superintendent’s lawyer tried to enforce on a community they didn’t respect.  There was a lot of talk at the time that Matt Miller was going to sue the Lakota school system as he was still employed as the superintendent over harassment by the school board led by Darbi Boddy.  To make a long story short, the school board is the management body represented by the community and is supposed to have control of all these radical lefty employees in these public schools.  But what was revealed through this process, and because Darbi Boddy pushed the issue in less than polite ways, was the level of manipulation that truly goes on in the background by lawyers who run the schools.  The school boards are only there, in all public school districts, to give the illusion of public disclosure, the issue of civilian oversight that I have been talking about recently a lot.  Because it is at the heart of the problem in just about everything we discuss regarding government.  Over the summer, I have been a foreman on a grand jury, and that is the same kind of case there.  All the lawyers involved play a game of respecting civilian oversight while they work in the background to completely rule as unelected bureaucrats at every level, with what they think are complicated legalisms that only they understand. 

Working with Vanessa and Darbi, along with many other people, many of them excellent legal minds, we learned a lot about where the actual costs at Lakota schools go and how they seek to protect a kind of Never Trumper political agenda with ruthless zeal. Significantly, what was done to Darbi Boddy to get her off the school board and defend themselves from what is an inevitable future of public disclosure.  But part of that process was this little game that was exploited by the letter Lakota tried to conceal from the public where the lawyers are showing they are really in charge of the school, and their defense of avoiding public scrutiny was to threaten to sue all of us involved, and ultimately the school itself by the sitting superintendent who mistakenly felt that he had a right to privacy as a public employee that he did not have.  Vanessa and I received a similar lawsuit letter, which played out over this period, as did several others who were involved in having an opinion about the lifestyle choices of the superintendent that we found objectionable and even dangerous to children.  Vanessa, Darbi, and many others have spent a lot of money on legal bills to defend themselves from this public school’s poor management practices.  I laughed off the threat as ridiculously stupid and handled my legal matters on my own.  I approach those kinds of things to treat it like I do when I fix my cars.  I wouldn’t say I like professional opinions; I want to do it myself when something breaks because nobody, in my opinion, can do it as well as I can.  I work with many lawyers; if I need to, I’ll use them as a bandwidth issue.  But this case was clear to me at the start, and the purposeful attack by the legal people involved in Lakota were obvious constitutional violations, and I knew any court challenge would fall apart at the first stages of review. 

We’ve also seen this same strategy play out in national politics. It is undoubtedly a progressive trend that has been floating around legal firms for decades, and it came unraveled at Lakota schools in ways that only confirmed my worst suspicions.  When the threat came to us, Vanessa and I talked about it while I was on vacation with my family in a really nice place as we bought everyone ice cream on a scenic waterfront.  I became furious because such a silly matter was disrupting my time with my family, so I made a point to ensure everyone was paid back for that incursion in my life.  But what was so audacious about the threats was their designs to keep the public out of their business, so bad things could happen without any civilian oversight.  And the Supreme Court saw it the way I knew it would that day, buying ice cream for my family.  But to the level that these lawyers have even hoodwinked the school board members, that was shocking, and I learned about all of them far more than I wanted to know in this process.  And that system won’t be allowed to continue, I can say that.  However, there is a process, and the Trump election is the next point of interest.  Electing more school board members only to have the legal people attack them and toss them off so they can avoid civilian oversight isn’t going to be tolerated.  And that is what this Supreme Court case of Ohio essentially means.  And the angry moms out there know it.

Sodomizing a 17-Year-Old Girl in the Butler County Jail: When all the adults let down kids

The trouble with stories like this one is that I like many of the people involved.  But here’s the thing, and this goes for all adults: it is a privilege to have the trust of children, and they need us to help guide them into their first functions in life.  The wonderful thing about kids is that they have their whole lives in front of them, so I think trade schools like Butler Tech do great things by giving kids specific skills that will launch them into life.  I am very supportive of Butler Tech in my neighborhood as I live within a few miles of their three major campuses and know many of the people who run it personally.  Putting kids in contact with a valuable skill, or skills in technical fields, is a great way to start in life, so I am very supportive of Butler Tech in Butler County, Ohio, and their mission.  But often, intent does not match reality, and by the time you start putting a bunch of lazy slugs into the mix you end up moving from a dream of conception to a nightmare reality and that is what we learned about on a national story from the Louder with Crowder Show who unraveled an alarming story of national importance right in our back yard, yet again.  Why can’t the adults in these schools behave themselves?  Wait, I know the answer, I’m just being rhetorical. 

So this wasn’t a one-time, oops, where a young 17-year-old girl, who was an intern for the Butler Tech criminal justice program, was left alone with inmates at the Butler County Jail.  This was a systemic problem day in and day out where nobody was managing the poor kid even as she was being exposed to hardened criminals and murderers, freely.  And the best answer to come from Tony Dwyer was, “Well, she’ll be 18 soon, and we hire 18-year-olds at the jail.”   The permissive attitude is going on at the jail where this young lady was able to have sexual relationships with at least two of the inmates and send letters to the extent that they wanted to marry her and were claiming her as their own over the other inmates.  And the sex went to such an extent that she was sodomized, which was all indicated in letters to her from the inmates.  The first problem is that she, as a criminal justice intern, was so unsupervised that she had time to build up all these relationships that led to so much sex.  Obviously, nobody was watching what was going on, and if they did know about it, they were so brain-dead that the atmosphere of permissiveness was a long way away from community expectations.  What was pathetic was that once the Louder with Crowder report hit the national news, all the news outlets from traditional media made the story all about the contraband she helped smuggle into the jail.  Very few news outlets caught the actual crime of the story, in how the Butler Tech structure left this poor kid completely unsupervised and exposed to all these dangerous elements over a sustained period.  This relationship building between the student and these inmates went on for a long time, and once caught, nobody seemed to be responsible, and the only person who got into trouble was the little girl.  They are prosecuting her for smuggling in contraband to the inmates and other poor conduct. The responsibility was the other way around; all the adults who were supposed to teach her criminal justice let her down detrimentally.  And they all embarrassed us in our community by making a good thing bad on a national stage. 

Upon hearing this story, I first thought that Julie Shaffer was now on the board at Butler Tech, along with many other presidents of school boards from our local region.  Lakota schools are the closest to these Butler Tech facilities, so she is just one of the guiding voices on the board.  But all this happened recently, in March of 2024.  Julie just won an election, even though people know about the stories of her out-of-control drinking in public, the loss of clothing at educational events, and being found in embarrassing and compromising ways.  People voted for her anyway, and she played a crucial role in using lawfare to eliminate school board members she didn’t like, who were elected by the community.  And she hasn’t just done that once recently, but on several occasions.  When people make mistakes, she has used those mistakes to pound them into destruction, and she is one of the guiding voices at Butler Tech.  So when we see teachers who fall short of expectations, which we have in this case, it all starts from the top, from the board members.  They all love to play house and use the kids to make themselves feel important.  But when it comes time to take responsibility for anything, everyone else always has the problem.  Never them.  But when the question is asked, why did Butler Tech’s teachers think it was all right to let 17-year-old girls run around in the general population of a county jail unsupervised? Julie Shaffer and the board members are the first to be responsible.  They love the authority of board positions and to be called leadership.  But when someone needed to look out for the well-being of this young girl, they blamed the girl.

Julie has advocated for all kinds of permissive sexual lifestyles, most recently the whole superintendent controversy at Lakota.  No wonder the staff and teachers have such permissive attitudes about sex, especially after the excuses the Lakota school board had while they tried to keep their superintendent even after the public learned about his reckless sexual lifestyle.  They even helped him find another job.  So what could go wrong when many of these same people were responsible for putting a 17-year-old kid in jail unsupervised with murderers and sexual deviants?  All the adults wanted to say to the public was that there was a program to teach kids about criminal justice by giving them access to real-world scenarios.  They left the whole sodomizing out of the story, and when the rest of the news reported the story, it was all to protect the adults from their responsibility in the matter.  It became all about contraband, while sex with minors was pushed entirely to the back of consideration.  And that is the problem with all these education institutions these days; they are entirely too permissible about sexual lifestyles to the point where they can’t see right from wrong, even right in front of their faces.  Is sex that easy in jail?  Who runs these places?  Why do inmates get to call people all the time?  And how could a young girl walk around jail and go behind closed doors and have sex with so many people, and the guards didn’t do anything about it?  And when an independent journalist breaks open the story, the only person, all the adults, wanted to blame was the kid they were supposed to be teaching?  You have to be kidding?  Yet, that is what we are dealing with, and it isn’t very encouraging.  Extremely embarrassing.  When adults have permissive attitudes about anything, this is the result we end up with.  And all these adults, in this case, were way too permissive, and they have let down so many kids who are looking for real mentors to show them the way in life.  In the case of this young girl, they showed her the ugliest side of life and threw her into the deep end, only to blame her when it all went wrong.  How pathetic!

Good to See the People of Fairfield Schools Aren’t Stupid: In Lakota, corruption put Christina French in a seat to protect the radical teacher’s union

I was happy to see that the people in the Fairfield school district, who just voted down their ridiculous school levy, were not stupid.  As I have always said and will continue to say, you are stupid if you vote for a school levy.  These public schools are cesspools of Democrat politics, and they rot the children from the inside out, purposely.  So, feeding those ridiculous Democrats incubation factories is stupid.  The schools are controlled by radicalized laborers who want to be paid too much to do too little and offer a community very little in return for the massive investment.  So, in the Fairfield schools just north of Cincinnati outside the I-275 loop, a community that is only a fraction of what it once was, they said no to their tax levy, which is a good sign of things to come.  People have learned a lot over the last few years, especially since all the Covid lockdowns exposed this clown game for what it truly is, and more people than ever are ready to admit that public schools are only a free babysitting service for parents too busy, to take their kids anywhere else because they are too poor to take their kids to a private school or find some other alternative.  Public schools are like public toilets; nobody cares about what happens inside until you have to use them.  And when you use them, they are always in a state of degradation.  I love education, but we don’t do nearly enough of it.  But public schools are not my idea of education.  They are more like prisons of social conditioning to feel all the wrong things and express all the wrong values.  I don’t believe public schools got it right, especially over the last few decades.  They have become propaganda factories for Democrat politics, and any good that was intended with them has long gone from social analysis.  Nothing says “I don’t love you, kid” more than sending them to the rat race public school attached to your zip code. 

With all that said, I have had many, many, many people ask me to run for school board in my community of Lakota.   And we’re not talking about slack-jawed losers but brilliant and influential people.  The game has always been evident to me, but for the sake of those people, I have tried to do whatever I can to make public education better for the scope of a community.  And in management, saying no is a significant first step to whatever Democrats think they need.  Even if they ask for an extra gallon of milk, inflated, wasteful people who look to the government to fill their bottomless pit needs must be told no.  That is certainly true regarding wage levels, which are directly associated with the inflated budgets that public schools utilize.  And to have someone say no often is why people have wanted me to be on the school board.  But I would never waste my time on such a fruitless enterprise, especially since the name of the game is to have closet Democrats running the school board to pave the way for the teacher unions to have easy contract negotiations.  And the whole game is set up like a parasite to a community’s property values, like a gun to the head of a robbery victim.  It’s just not a positive experience in any way, significantly once kids grow up beyond the fifth grade and stop having parent presentations to see the art their kids did in school pasted all over the wall as if to justify everything.  Once the kids get into middle and high school, where puberty is running away with logic, everything gets a lot less cute and useless for the dollar value.

However, I’ve tried to help put conservative school board members on the board in my school district of Lakota several times over the years.  But a pattern emerges that is quite obvious.  Rival school board members who don’t like the conservatives use woke laws to protect them from voter intentions, which is the case with Darbi Boddy in Lakota.  She was a Tea Party type conservative on the school board, and that group worked hard, just as they did Todd Parnell before her, to use woke rules to remove members they didn’t like, then the board would override the pick of the public and appoint their liberal members.  In this case, because of a legal technicality driven by a bunch of people who might otherwise call themselves conservatives, a court order kept Darbi from attending school board meetings, which, after 90 days, allowed the Lakota school board to vote her off the board and appoint a new member, without going to the taxpayers.  In this case, it ended up being Christina French after a long list of excessively liberal names offered themselves as options.  French is not a conservative, let’s just put it nicely.  But she represents the kind of people that the teacher union wants on the school board, and as the out-of-control costs stack up into chaos at Lakota, they try to do what Fairfield just tried to do, with tax increases in more overt liberalism as policy, don’t say I didn’t try to warn you.

The community Republicans should have stood behind Darbi better than they did.  Isaac Adi, who ran as a conservative for the board, voted to put French in Darbi’s seat, and he’s the one who caused all the trouble in the first place.  Darbi shouldn’t have let her temper get the better of her, just as Todd Parnell shouldn’t have, but these people can infuriate you.  And they can support child molesters and break all kinds of laws and get away with it because they are Democrats.  The rules are only there to control Republicans because we have allowed that system to manifest that way and make conservative politics, which is, in the majority, a passive role in the education business.  This is why public education is failing everywhere and why it costs so much to get so little.  Because there are so many RINOs, which was undoubtedly the case with Darbi, they didn’t back her, so they get to deal with Christina French, Julie Shaffer, and those other radical Democrats.  Many of them probably call themselves Republicans at wine tastings, but their behavior is overtly liberal, and it shows in their spending habits.  No matter who we put on the Lakota school board, this will always be the result.  Republicans have to walk around on egg shells while the Democrats are dancing on the tables naked and laying face down in the bathroom by the toilet at education conferences, and they get away with everything, because the teacher’s unions wants such fools in charge of their budget.  See why?  Which is why I say, and will continue to say, if you vote for a school levy you are stupid.  I can at least add to that that I’ve tried to help make school boards better, but the future of public education is to put the funding to the child, not the zip code, and make the schools earn their money, drive down their costs, and attract children to their enterprise through competition.  Of course, the public schools won’t be able to afford government union wage rates, but that’s the point.  That doesn’t benefit anybody but the parasites who have access to the next generation of children.  And if you want to fix education and help kids access learning, that’s the only next thing to do.  Everything else is nonsense.  More money doesn’t help the kids at all. It only increases corruption, as we have seen in Lakota over many years.  The more money, the more corruption, and the process that got rid of Darbi Boddy and put Christina French in her place is corrupt beyond repair.

‘Remember the Alamo’ at Lakota Schools: Fake news hiding lawyer activism toward progressive politcs

“Remember the Alamo” is all I could think of as I saw Julie Shaffer’s signature on the notification that was sent to Darbi Boddy, hand-delivered at 7 AM on Monday, the 18th of March, 2024.  The letter was to notify Darbi that they were going to vote on the Lakota school board to vacate her seat since she had not been attending meetings, and now that a 90-day period had occurred, they were going to act on it on Wednesday the 20th.  What they failed to disclose to her or the media in the wake of the incident was their complicity in the occurrence.  Darbi wanted to attend the meetings as a popularly elected school board member but couldn’t because of a court-ordered restraining order that prevented her from being 500 feet from Isaac Adi, another school board member.  So Darbi was prevented from attending the meetings by activism from that same school board, which did not work to resolve a condition they caused under advisement from Lakota’s lawyers and little Judge Lyons.  And I emphasize “little” because it exhibits a common trait many of these people get into politics for, to begin with, the power the office brings and what they are willing to do with that power.  In this Darbi Boddy case, abuses of power are everywhere, and it was interesting to watch.  But as I looked at that signature and listened to the lies that the various school board members told the public about the incident, I couldn’t help but wonder what kinds of lies Julie Shaffer told people in the wake of her famous “Remember the Alamo” dancing panties party at an education retreat where she had to be put back together again by another school board member after a night of scandal and degradation.  And here was this same person signing the notification to Darbi Boddy, her political rival on the board, to using legal gymnastics to remove her from the board, then lie about it to everyone in the wake.

Like I always say, the rules are often made to protect the incompetent

Of course, the actual Alamo that occurred in Texas during the Spanish-American War involved a mob of parasites who overran the outpost there on the wild frontier, and some of America’s greatest heroes were killed in the bloodbath.  That is what is happening at Lakota schools; only Darbi Boddy will live to fight another day.  What was lost was a seat that was worthless as there an onslaught of parasites converged under the pressure of radicalism to take back their school from conservative influence.  The most significant value in Darbi’s term in office was that it revealed all the bad things I have always said were there and showed them to the community for what they are.  I wanted the election process to work, and I worked with many people I usually wouldn’t talk to for the school’s good to help make it happen.  But upon seeing that letter given to Darbi, I felt relief and freedom from playing nice with people who didn’t deserve it.  It wasn’t the first time I was willing to work with people who were not precisely as conservative as I am to do something good for Lakota.  But I get tired of being let down by them because they don’t have the guts to follow through, and they always compromise with radicals.  Ultimately, many people like to drink and get disgraced at some of these public events.  Everyone knows the Julie Shaffer story of her “Remember the Alamo” event, yet she was in a position to play her part in removing a school board member to protect the real people who run the Lakota school board, the lawyers, and the courts. 

Very true stuff. Revenge is the balance of existence. Always remember the battle cry of The Alamo and the giggles of drunken fools saying the same

Until Darbi was on the school board, I hadn’t noticed how much the Lakota school board punted everything to legal advice.  We always assumed we elected school board members and they worked on our behalf to run a community school.  We didn’t know that the school board was but a front group for lawyers in the background who are very progressive.  I know many of them, and they are not bastions of conservative value, especially those in the big law firms.  They are very much aligned with the Larry Finks of the world, politically, so when Darbi or anybody would speak in public to stop political activism from infecting our children, these lawyers work in the background to advance their cause on the radical left.  And the value of school board members to them is to pave the way for political activism.  And anybody who stood in the way of that would be eliminated.  The public election process was only an illusion to keep the tax money flowing through what people thought were honest elections.  But when someone like Darbi got elected, this was how the system protected itself.  If they couldn’t be controlled, they’d be eliminated.  In this case, they found a complicit victim in Isaac Adi to play his role, just as Julie Shaffer has, and the new Bobblehead Doug Horton and the outright communist, Kelly Casper.  That school board doesn’t represent the public, but it does the dirty work for the lawyers and keeps money flowing to them with easy cases and billable hours.  Because they are too stupid to think on their own, the legal bills add up for the law office with easy money that they protect with viciousness, obviously present in this Darbi Boddy case. 

And many of the characters involved are so stupid they don’t see the obvious, much like the Remember the Alamo moment in history, or Julie Shaffer’s personal disgrace, the comfort of the mob mentality often hides them from reality.  They think they can build a five-member board with hand-selected advocates for a new facilities plan and that they’ll put forth a tax increase that the public will support.  Yet, just next door in Fairfield, they just tried for another levy, which was shot down rather spectacularly.  And they forget that Darbi Boddy was popularly elected in their drunken binges where clothes are undoubtedly optional, and they giggle about it within the power of their networks of misfits.  And that she is still popularly supported.  What they have done to her will be remembered, certainly.  I think Darbi is far better off.  We learned what we needed to learn from her being in that seat, and it exposed people I had previously thought were decent people.  But it’s better to know who is doing what and why they did it, which we know now.  Like that classic battle in Texas, the short-term mob behavior overran the fortifications.  But soon after, the entire war effort collapsed under its own weight.  This is what I see happening at Lakota schools as a direct result.  The politeness was gone.  Fake news was presented for all to see because they knew the truth of what the school board did to Darbi under the guidance of the lawyers who ran everything against the taxpayer’s wishes.  And yes, we will “Remember the Alamo.”  We now have the freedom to act on what we know, which we didn’t have before because we had to work with the system to prove that we could and were willing.  But now we are free of that burden, thankfully.  We can “Remember the Alamo” and apply justice without regret.

How Corruption Begins: When the power of government is used for personal gain

Everyone has different ideas about corruption, its appearance, how it was born, and the cost of it to civilization.  But I did get a clear view of it recently while at an event involving Don Jr. at Lori’s Roadhouse for a campaign event with Bernie Moreno, supporting him for senate.  At those kinds of positive events, there are always political people who show up, and as I arrived, I ran into Darbi Boddy, who wanted to attend and show support for the people there.  But, as this is a story that has all kinds of bad elements to it, Isaac Adi, the other school board member that I had been involved with to put conservatives on the board at Lakota schools; there has been a restraining order put in place keeping Darbi from being 500 feet from Isaac, essentially preventing her from attending school board meetings, because a bunch of political people want to get rid of Darbi off the school board and they are using Isaac to challenge her in court over a dispute the two of them have had where he claimed he was concerned for his safety.  This has resulted in Darbi losing her CCW and being unable to attend any event where Isaac was also present.  So when Isaac shows up at some political event that Darbi is at, she has to get up and leave, by the court order.  It’s an entirely ridiculous notion that a woman the size of Darbi was going to be some physical threat to Isaac Adi, who is a reasonably good-sized person, but that is what happens when your courts are corrupt and politics takes over logic.  As it stood, Darbi wanted to see Bernie Moreno, so I met her in the parking lot and scouted out the venue to make sure Isaac wasn’t there, which he wasn’t, so she entered and talked to people as she normally would.

About twenty minutes later, Isaac arrived, and as I watched him enter the building, I saw him walking in a way I had not seen before.  I’ve known him for a while and tried to help Isaac on several occasions, so I came to know him as a compassionate, nice Christian man.  This person he has become during his first two years on the school board was surprising to me.  I was most disappointed in him when he joined the labor union in laughing at my name when it was brought up in a school board meeting, as he joined the crowd in a mob-like free-for-all.  The criticism didn’t bother me; I expected that.  But that he played a part in it bothered me because I thought he was a better person than that and would not participate in those kinds of things.  But it wouldn’t be the first time someone like this let me down.  So I took note of it and moved on.  I have talked to Isaac occasionally, but I gave up on him over a year ago as he was politically useless.  It was an experiment that was tried, but when Lynda O’Connor went off-script, Isaac’s political future was tossed out the window.  So any interaction I had with him was minimal.  I had not seen enough of him to reveal the person he had become since he got caught up in this lawyer scam against Darbi, and the power of the courts had gone to his head in genuinely destructive ways.  He entered the building to sign in like Connor McGregor entering an MMA fight; he was slinging his arms out, counterbalancing his large belly in a very theatrical way, which was interesting.

Upon seeing this, I went to find Darbi to tell her that Isaac had arrived.  She immediately gathered her things to leave.  I offered to give her my hat and jacket so she could sit on the opposite side of the room, far away from Isaac, and attend the political rally anyway.  Nobody would have known the two of them were even close.  She declined the offer and said she had to honor the court order, so she left.  The whole thing was ridiculous; this court order put upon her for purely political reasons was taking away her liberty senselessly, and people weren’t doing anything about it to defend her, and all that power that Isaac suddenly had over her had gone to his head.  And he was enjoying that power way too much.  For something that was legally questionable, to begin with, it now was a power that a person like Isaac had over people in his community, a political rival, that was the most concerning.  And since I had not interacted with him much over the last few years, the corruption was evident.  What he was now was built by the corruption of politics and was a good lesson of everything that can go wrong and often does.  I knew him when the effort at elected office was full of good intentions, and he was promising.  And I can think of hundreds of people I have known, just like Isaac, who all started the same way.  But thousands of compromises later, and their shelf life near expiration, most of them fail and become corrupt to some level or another, and it was shocking to see how far Isaac had fallen in such a short time. 

When people stop doing what they know to be right or even think to be correct and serve institutional concerns, the process of corruption begins.  Then, corruption takes root when people like Isaac learn the kind of power they can have over other people given to them by the power of politics.  Soon after, they become one of the many who learn that institutional power compensates people who lack private power, so they seek the power of government to do what they lack the courage to do themselves.  And that is clearly what happened with Darbi and Isaac on the Lakota school board.  He lacked personal courage and was quickly swept away by the corrosive forces that enjoy making vast amounts of money off an institution that collects taxes from the public and distributes it for power, using children to extort the villainy.  And once he learned that he could have a lot of power from appeasing the institution over his values and peer groups, he knew what that power could give him.  In this case, he was able to meet celebrity political figures, and he could force Darbi to leave and deny her the same enjoyment through the power of the courts, which was given to him for other reasons, all corrupt in their own way.  We say corrupt because the relationship intends to abuse government power for personal gain.  Isaac might be a pawn in that game, but the seduction of the abuse of it was something he was enjoying, which encouraged more of the same behavior.  When the law is used to support personal power and punish other people who challenge that power, it is corrupt.  And when you look at the many millions of other such cases nationwide for many of the same reasons, you can see how our political landscape has become so corrupted.  The temptations to fall to corruption are too much for most people, and that is the case with the Lakota school board and the reason that Darbi Boddy had to leave that event.  Not because it was the right thing to do, but because political power had been abused to give power to private people they otherwise would have never had, if not for the power that government offers people willing to abuse it.

If you Vote for the Fairfield School Levy, You’re Stupid: What really causes communities to fail

I’ve said it for years, and it’s just as relevant today as it ever was, perhaps more so.  If you vote for a school levy, you’re stupid.  That’s what Darryl Parks and I always said on WLW radio when I was a frequent guest.  Many of our old interviews are still on my YouTube site, where we talked about why in a thousand different ways.  When he was the program director for Clear Channel Radio, we spent many hours discussing what had come true in public education today, well before anybody else realized it, and nobody can’t say that they weren’t told.  It was just an inconvenient truth that nobody wanted to admit to.  When they thought of public school, they thought about school jackets, class rings, homecoming dances, and the social aspects of being around other kids.  But public school designed by socialists, Marxists, and outright communists under John Dewey was never intended to teach anybody anything useful.  It was always about social controls that would last the duration of people’s lives with liberalized sentiment and submission to authority, which served the notion of big centralized governments.  And the entire system has collapsed on itself.  Finally, people have admitted that sending their kids to public schools was something they’d instead not do if they could get away with it. Suppose they could afford a private school or some other alternative.  And that is the state now where there are massive waiting lists for alternative schools to the government school option at the center of everyone’s community.  It’s taken many years, and COVID was the final straw, but people have finally admitted that the public school option is one they’d love to get away from for the benefit of their children.  Based on what we know now, if you are choosing to send your kid to public school, it’s more for your convenience than that you love them.  Nobody would choose to send a kid to a public school and, in the same sentence, mean it when you said to them, “I love you.”  Those things do not go together.

And so it goes; knowing all that, my wife and I were shopping at Bridgewater Falls in Fairfield, and we noticed all the yard signs advocating for a new tax levy for Fairfield Schools.  Fairfield is a school district neighboring Lakota, where I live, and they have been flirting with a new levy in Lakota for several years.  Public schools were designed to burden a community, so everyone has to go through a kind of divorce with their government schools where property values are perceived to be directly connected.  For years, it has been thought that people move into or out of a community based on the quality of the schools.  That’s what real estate people will tell you anyway, but that has, too, been a lazy way to manage school districts.  Government schools that are controlled by radical leftist teacher unions with consistently high wage rates in mind have no means to generate more money to pay their staff but ever-increasing burdens on their property taxes.  So the game continued; home values would increase, making more taxable revenue available for the government schools to confiscate.  That money is then used to program the next generation of children into the ways of Democrat politics, anti-God sentiments, transgender bathrooms, and racial politics, making for much of their youth, future Democrat voters.  Public schools are essentially teaching anti-family and a replacement of domestic concerns with obedience to centralized government. 

So the longer a community survives this process, the more burden and expensive those government schools become before there is a collapse, and the following community with the next shiny thing becomes the new destination, leaving the old community behind and used up.  That has been the story of several communities around Butler County, especially Fairfield, where I have much experience.  My wife and I were married and went to church there for many years when it was a destination community for many people all over the country.  I have watched this government school game for a long time, and behind it all is the communist intention to attack private ownership.  We are seeing this trend in Liberty Township, within the Lakota district now, where apartments and lower-cost living seek to attract lower-income people who don’t own so much private property.  It’s not a massive conspiracy; I know all the trustees involved.  They are nice enough guys.  But it’s in the handbook of community development, written by the same dumb people from the United Nations who designed these horrible public schools.  What could go wrong with a community entirely of apartments and people who vote but don’t own property?  Then, people who own property are squeezed out of their homes with high taxes, and before you know it, the tax rates are too high and unmanageable, and people move away once their children grow up and start lives of their own somewhere else.  In the background of all these apartments and condos is the hope that the children will stay in the community when they grow up if only affordable options exist.  But what you end up with is Democrat voters until they grow up and take on more responsibility by starting a family of their own.  So they vote for school levies, but their landlords end up having to pay the taxes, and the schools achieve one of Karl Marx’s goals: the destruction of all private property.  We have seen this cycle everywhere, and Fairfield has suffered from it.  Most of their best companies picked up and left because the taxes were too high, the same story that could be told in every community around Butler County, Ohio, for the last four or five decades.  The Lakota schools are watching if any of these levies pass so they can try independently for their own.  We have managed to keep the taxes low in Lakota because plenty of people have a hostile reaction to the prospect of higher property taxes.  However, the system was built to fail in every way, providing a tempting lure to busy parents, free babysitting while they work, and dual income lives to pay for all this mess. 

However, changes are coming with another Trump administration; serious reforms to public education will happen by eliminating the Department of Education, which should have occurred during the Reagan administration.  But the communists fought to prevent it with the standard fear tactics, which Reagan listened to.  And so we have had this uncompetitive socialist model ever since, and Trump is poised to change it.  And to that point, the most apparent change will be that any federal dollars will follow the child, not the zip code.  That will mean that Fairfield, Lakota, Mason, and several other government schools along the outer loop of I-275 will have to fight to have children in their schools to access the funds that come with them.  And their cost structure will be challenged severely, which would be great.  Many teachers at Lakota schools make over six figures, which is a big part of their quarter of a billion-dollar yearly budget. If you have attended a school event anywhere lately, you will see many of these teachers can afford to miss a sandwich or two.  They are not specimens of excellent health, let’s just put it nicely.  The entire system is poised to fail, whether levies are approved or not.  And knowing all that, if you vote for a school levy, as I have said for several decades, you are stupid.  It’s silly to vote for any public school for more money that they are just going to waste on radical Democrat teachers.  And until we change that, it’s stupid to give them even a penny more.

Sheriff Jones on Glenn Beck: Talking out of both sides, especially when it comes to Darbi Boddy

As much as I think we all want to get behind Sheriff Jones’ terrorist watch initiative in Butler County, Ohio, I couldn’t help but wonder if the same guy talking on the Glenn Beck Radio Show was the person who had stripped away the CCW of school board member Darbi Boddy, over a bogus civil protection order filed against her.  Anybody with any logic knows that Sheriff Jones has played his part in allowing another school board member, Isaac Adi, to file a motion of protection against Darbi Boddy essentially over pure politics.  The lawyers who run the Lakota school board don’t want someone like Darbi, a staunch conservative MAGA type of community representative negotiating labor contracts with the radical leftist teacher’s union, so they have all worked in the background to find some way to remove Darbi from the school board by some legal nonsense such as this civil protection order that Isaac filed against Darbi, constructed on the back of a napkin and abused by several political figures in the know.  This is a clear case of abuse of government power to subvert the will of the voters who put Darbi in office.  But because these political figures, and their legal handlers reject who the voters put in their political club, they have turned toward the power of abusive government to edit that decision in a vile and disgusting way.  So when Sheriff Jones, who is at the center of the case, says to Glenn Beck, “The sheriffs work for the people, and if the people don’t like the job they do, they can vote them out.”  That clearly isn’t the message in the Darbi Boddy case.  The unsaid statement from politicians like Jones is that we control the law, and we can come up with anything to destroy you, including taking away your CCW over a phony political charge meant to keep an elected officeholder off her duties for 90 days so they can appoint some weak loser they can control for contract negotiations.  Essentially, the local version of Joe Biden, to join the others they have allowed on the school board.  Wherever there is a lot of money, we should expect this kind of corruption.  But what is new is that we learned the lawyers are actually the activists behind election fraud, which is what all this is: the removal of a public pick for office to manage the affairs of the community. 

Sheriff Jones had a pretty good meltdown at a nomination interview with the Central Committee types at the end of 2023, where he did not get an endorsement.  His response was anger in stating that he didn’t need a party endorsement, and his response for his upcoming re-election was to go it alone.  So he has picked this immigration issue, which we all agree on, and booked himself on several big national shows to bring celebrity representation into Butler County, which we also like.  I like seeing my sheriff on the Glenn Beck Show and other places discussing important counter-terrorism topics.  But we also expect to walk the walk and not just talk about it.  Jones was in trouble with the Central Committee people because of how he handled the Darbi Boddy situation and Lakota school politics in general, especially the behavior of the previous superintendent.  Then there is the Roger Reynolds case; Jones has been caught many times trying to destroy his political rivals over the last several years, so there wasn’t an option to vote him out of office.  He destroys anybody who might try.  After I learned from several people who knew what happened between Jones and the Central Committee, I thought we probably should have put up someone to run against him.  But people liked him enough to give him the benefit of the doubt, so in that way, Jones sabotaged any rivals before they could be put forth. 

So, the guy we heard on the Glenn Beck Program was not the same person we are dealing with in our community.  I wish it were. I like that Sheriff Jones who can do media and represent us nicely to the rest of the world, and I’ve told him that directly on more than one occasion.  But this activist who uses the power of office to abuse that power and take down political rivals, such as what is happening against Darbi Boddy, is what makes the world a much worse place.  In Darbi’s case, the sheriff who pulled her CCW is a sheriff by the name of David Duchak from Miami County.  But all these sheriffs know each other, especially on this issue. Sheriff Jones has allowed it to happen and done all he could to blow on the embers of discontent, only not directly to maintain plausible deniability.  My statement on who cares about a Concealed Carry Permit, we are a Constitutional Carry state for just this very purpose.  We can’t ultimately trust the government not to abuse its power, so gun rights are a check on that power, and the police don’t get to use the machine of politics to disarm the public.  I view a CCW as a good practice and will continue to maintain one.  But in Ohio, it’s not necessary.  This is also the problem with red flag laws.  When it can abuse its power, as it is against Darbi Boddy, to remove her from an elected office they don’t want her in, the government can use the law to destroy people, including disarming them under some bogus suspicion generated by that same government.  Who believes a big man like Isaac Adi is terrified of a 110-pound Darbi Boddy dripping wet?  (Which is why most women don’t like her) Yet because Isaac made an accusation, the powers of government have been allowed to ruin the life of Darbi Boddy in very destructive ways, particularly on gun rights. 

Meanwhile, the terrorists are a real threat, and we do need to do what Sheriff Jones is saying, at least to the media.  Private people are the fine line between success and failure, which we just recently saw when young thugs at the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl party opened fire into the crowd of a million or so and were stopped by private citizens bold enough to put an end to the senseless violence.  The police were then called to come in and clean up the mess.  And now that the Biden administration has allowed many terrorist cells into our nation through his open border policy, we have a lot of similar threats that are undoubtedly going to continue.  And our best hope of minimizing casualties from this threat is to have private people helping law enforcement manage the danger.  And Darbi Boddy is one of those people with whom Sheriff Jones should be aligned, not antagonizing over political power.  You can’t talk out of both sides of your mouth.  You either want to stop terrorist threats with community involvement, or you just want to go on Glenn Beck and other shows to talk a good game to get re-elected so that you can just abuse the power of elected office to bring meaning to a life otherwise lacking.  But you can’t have it both ways, which is why the Central Committee was hesitant to endorse him in the first place.  Sheriff Jones’ performance had come into question, and people have been thinking about firing him.  Yet it’s not nearly as simple as he tried to make it sound to Glenn Beck.  But we don’t have anybody to rival him because he has used government power to push away rivals and maintain himself as the only choice.  But if anything, that lack of community unification has made us much more vulnerable to terrorism than anything else, and Sheriff Jones has undoubtedly played his part in that discontent.

Election Fraud at Lakota Schools: The lawyers are really in charge and are keeping Darbi Boddy from attending meetings

It’s one of the most disgusting cases I’ve ever run into regarding outright election fraud and the tampering of an unelected group of losers who think they run the world from the shadows. No, we aren’t talking about the World Economic Forum people in Davos or the many secret societies plotting and scheming for the world’s downfall so they can attain power. No, we’re not talking about Dr. Fauci, Bill Gates, Ralph Baric, and the many conspirators at Fort Detrick who took gain of function research, as a bioweapon, to the Wuhan Lab in China to alter a SARS virus so that it would be transmissible from animals to humans when it otherwise wouldn’t be, and release it to harm the public during an election year as they were all desperate to stop President Trump and to use the crises to steal the 2020 election. In many ways, this story at Lakota schools is worse and has taken some time to unravel. You always hear things here and there, but the whole story didn’t quite come together until this past week when Darbi Boddy went to her latest hearing in court, where fellow school board member Isaac Adi was pressing charges against her for violating a stalking order. It was always odd that a big man like Isaac would be afraid of a woman like Darbi Boddy and would pursue a restraining order to keep her away from him with some ridiculous 500’ distance rule. But as we have watched how in sync the courts are with the powers of legal firms who are running the Lakota school board for easy labor contracts with the radical leftists of the teacher’s union, the strategy became quite clear. Run out the clock with Darbi with this fake restraining order built on a completely fake legal case so that the legal firm advising the Lakota school board could keep Darbi away from school board meetings for more than 90 days, which would then allow the board to vote her off and designate a replacement they found more preferable over who the voters had picked.

The most important person isn’t even featured. Where’s Darbi!

When people want to say that there is no election fraud and that the 2020 election was the “most secure in America’s history,” what we are seeing with this case is that there is massive election fraud in every election, in every community, and they have been hiding viciously in the background in plain sight all along.  And the Darbi case at Lakota has smoked them out for all the tampering they have been doing for years.  But when we wonder why our taxes are so high or our government doesn’t listen to us, remember this case for all its surface innocence but diabolical scheming behind the scenes.  I know about this because I know all the people and was at the center of this story from the start.  So it all adds up well for me due to the knowledge of the history.  But when the radio station WVXU and the other local media say that Darbi has not been attending her meetings to fulfill her role as a newly elected school board member, it’s not because she doesn’t want to.  However, the legal firm running the school board at Lakota won’t let her, which is why this week was so significant.  I talked to Darbi to see how her court cases have been going, which are unjustified.  Essentially, since September of 2023, Darbi hasn’t been able to attend Lakota school board meetings because of this restraining order from Isaac, so my question to her was, isn’t there a way to participate in the meetings without physically being there, such as with Teams or Zoom?  Julie Shaffer did that during COVID-19, where staying at home was part of the compliance madness during the lockdowns.  And the answer was no because legal counsel for Lakota advised against it, which is the period at the end of the sentence for me, revealing the entire scandal. 

Darbi would do whatever she had to do to attend school board meetings.  But this legal team for Lakota schools has been doing, which is evident in the behavior of Isaac and Lynda O’Connor, who was just voted off the board, is picking winners and losers away from what the community wants.  And these are the same people who happen to negotiate the labor contracts.  It is a highly maniacal bit of political activism to preserve inherited laziness.  But I would not call it uncommon.  It is the same garbage that President Trump has been going through, and it all came to light to us in these dark days of the Biden administration, nationally and locally.  Essentially this law firm, a big one in West Chester with lots of lawyers working at it, is keeping Darbi Boddy from attending school board meetings with this technicality provoked by Isaac, who wants to appease all these people. And when an alternative has been proposed to allow her to attend meetings remotely, those same people are smacking it down.  This is a plan they have had from the beginning to get rid of Darbi and undo a representative that the voters picked in an election to do their business.  But the message to the community from Lakota and this law firm they hide behind is that voters are not in charge.  We (the law firms) are.  And if we want to get rid of someone on the school board, then we will, and there is nothing the public can do about it. 

As I told Darbi, and I’ve said to many people this year, she can do a lot more on the outside than actually being on the board.  We tried to bring logical management to the Lakota school board, and a lot of people joined together who might not otherwise have a lot in common, and we gave Lynda O’Connor, who was president at the time, a three-vote majority.  And we saw what they did with it.  So, to answer a question I know about, which occurred before Darbi Boddy was ever sworn in, right after the election in 2022.  There was a dinner, and these lawyers were there, and they made it a point to remind Darbi who was really in charge, who elected them (her and Isaac), and who they needed to listen to from now on.  Darbi made it clear she would always listen to the taxpayers.  And those people were not in charge, did not get them elected.  They might have paid some money for some yard signs, but they didn’t have that kind of power.  But they wanted everyone to believe they did.  We showed them who really had power when Lynda O’Connor was defeated this year for her role in all this, which they had propped up much the way Biden is propped up as President of the United States.  And like I told Darbi, dump those losers, there is a lot more power on the outside than on the inside.  It was nice of her to try, which she still intends to do.  But when legal firms are running the school, which we now fully understand, and is why teachers get away with so much bad behavior and cost so much money, being part of the system only ties up your hands to fixing anything.  The only power these people have is in the audaciousness of their deceit from the shadows and their law offices, where they think their control over the legal system gives them power over the voters and taxpayers, which has been a devastating revelation.  Yet, we are better off knowing it than the suspicions of conspiracy we might have had prior.  Now we know, and we know the names and places—and the truth.

A few months ago, I did several articles defending Ken Paxton, the AG in Texas, from the attempted impeachment process going on there to essentially remove him from doing what he’s doing now, defending the border from the Biden invasion strategy and suing cities over marijuana amnesty policies—issues that the power players at all levels of politics want to see happen because they profit off the chaos. And many influencers across the country who look for their source material for their podcasts, radio shows and television shows appreciated the big picture concept, which is why they read and watch my material.  There aren’t many sources for these people who see the whole picture because the day-to-day stuff consumes their vision, so they find such context very helpful.  And now we see why they wanted to get rid of Ken Paxton.  It’s the same legal maneuverings that have plotted the destruction of President Trump, for all the same reasons.  Because they want to take him out so there isn’t anybody to actually do the job they are elected to do.  And we see it in local politics as well and is certainly the motivation behind trying to destroy Darbi Boddy, the Lakota school board member.  Those who want to loot and pillage off the kids who attend the school and the taxpayers who fund it don’t want people like Darbi on the board.  So, they use these legal tricks to rob taxpayers of their voice.  And they sucker people like Isaac into their schemes by making them feel important with celebrity pictures and a belief that the system is more significant than them and that they must sacrifice for the “greater good.”  And before you know it, you have the case we have at Lakota, lawfare built on fear tactics and concealed maneuvers intentionally deceiving any spirit of public disclosure to preserve a system of looting that is baked into the foundations of all politics.  And it’s up to us if we will continue to put up with it, now that we see the game that has been going on since the foundation of the country but was hidden behind smiling faces, fundraisers, and hugs at political events.  The sinister underbelly is explicit, and it’s there to preserve the lazy, corrupt, and outright evil that loots off the work of the people who are being taken advantage of openly because they trust too much, to their detriment.

Lakota Trying to Run Out the Clock on Darbi Boddy: The revelation of wealth confiscation and business terrorism behind a vile plot of judicial activism

This is an important story because it’s essentially the same playbook happening nationally regarding politics and legal gymnastics.  Now that we’re in a new year, the Darbi Boddy case at Lakota schools is an interesting discussion because it involves local issues that are precisely the same as those being applied to President Trump, revealing a game plan that wasn’t so obvious.  That information is valuable for understanding all the various characters and what they are up to, which we would never have learned anything about if not for the election of Darbi Boddy.  But to catch everyone up, the media has gone cold on the story since the glitter has worn off over the last several weeks.  All through December of 2023, the thoughts were that Darbi Boddy, the Lakota school board member, was going to be thrown in jail for violating a court order to stay away from another Lakota school board member, Isaac Adi, who ran with her in a recent election with a GOP endorsement.  A lot has occurred since then to show lots of political tides and community sentiment that essentially had those two in conflict, resulting in a court action that required Darbi to stay 500 feet away from Isaac at all times, including school board meetings.  This left everyone scratching their heads as to what the motive was, and to fulfill her role as a school board member, Darbi has been fighting for her right to attend the meetings as she was elected to do, which has now caused a violation of this court order, which has attached to it jail time and all kinds of penalties.  Then, after an arraignment on December 18th, the plot became much more straightforward as to what everyone was after, which is where it stands going into January of 2024, where her next court date isn’t until the 29th.  The goal has been to keep Darbi out of school board meetings so that they can then enact a 90 day penalty applied to school board members who vacate their post and can then be removed from the board.  This court case has been a plan to do what they couldn’t do any other way, to try and remove Darbi from the school board by running out the 90-day clock with stalled court dates and judicial activism. 

This is the same method that the Secretary of State has been using in Maine, Sheena Bellows, with her case to attempt to keep Trump off the primary ballot there using the 14th amendment.  We’re seeing in 2024 a plan we long suspected, but now under pressure is being revealed in truly audacious ways, especially in the Lakota case.  The use that government unions have baked into the system to appoint judicial activism manipulations as a means to protect their confiscation of wealth from taxpayers.  After all, if you get to the actual reason that there is so much hatred of Trump, it all points back to a radicalism of government unions, which touch just about everything that flows from tax money, everything from the FBI to teacher unions.  They don’t want a Trump negotiating anything regarding their wages and benefits, and their goal is to put the dumbest people possible into positions to rubber-stamp their renegotiated contracts.  Trump has shown that he is perfectly willing to work with unions, and many union members have crossed over from Democrats to support Republican positions because the President has been very reasonable in working with them.  But the labor union leaders attached to government unions want only one thing: weak community representation that is easy to control so that the best labor contracts are possible, which benefits them.  They don’t like Trump because they don’t want to negotiate, so we see this level of radicalism applied to him using legal gymnastics to protect their stranglehold over taxpayer wealth confiscation.  And the media plays along because most are involved in organized labor in some form or other.  We can talk about the Deep State and the conspiracies of the World Economic Forum.  But once the rubber hits the road, it all comes down to controlling the people who decide how government money is spent.  And they don’t want a Trump or a Darbi Boddy representing taxpayers standing in the way. 

I knew it would be a tough job when Darbi was elected.  She was tough and persistent, but I wasn’t sure how it would go because we had never seen anything like it at Lakota.  Lynda O’Conner asked me for help, so I went to help her get two more votes on the school board to represent a conservative point of view, and Darbi was one of them.  With three votes, I thought seeing what would happen next would be interesting.  And what we learned was that the only conservative was Darbi, who represented a kind of Tea Party approach to school board management.  The hatred applied to her was unreasonable and about much more than personal ideological differences.  So, the government school forces on all political sides showed their cards and went after Darbi with such an unreasonable hatred that has been beneficial in pointing out what I have been saying about the public schools for several decades.  And we have learned a lot of valuable lessons.  In the Lakota case, of course, there is a lot more to the legal case between Isaac and Darbi, where third-party members have been blowing on the actions against Darbi, hoping to start a fire that would burn her role on the school board down, and one of the surprising directions has come from the legal firm of Frost Brown and Todd ahead of the upcoming teacher union contract negotiations.  Once you trace the origins of the legal case against Darbi, it runs right into their door because they work on behalf of the school board to negotiate with the teacher’s union.  It has been revealed that they have been behind the strategy to play this legal game in attempting to destroy Darbi’s life just because she is in the way of those 2024 labor negotiations.  Darbi asks lots of questions that many of them do not want on any public record.  This is all based on what multiple people who know the situation have told me and is well more than rumor.  Not the opinions of slack-jawed losers, but thoughtful people well-positioned who are deeply concerned by what they have been seeing. 

For those concerned, Darbi Boddy has a new lawyer and is fighting these charges in a way that should clear her completely.  The charges against her are made-up nonsense on the back of a wet napkin in a Waffle House at 2 AM and don’t carry much weight, which is why they have been stalling with all these hearings.  Their primary goal is to hope to kick Darbi off the school board using that 90-day clause.  Then they can appoint some liberal to replace her position.  Attempts at being reasonable by having Darbi attend school board meetings and still satisfying the distance requirements with Isaac have been avoided because Lakota does not want to work to find a solution to accommodate Darbi Boddy as a school board member.  They want to get rid of her.  The revelation there is that the teachers’ union wants to assert the level of control they have over the entire situation.  This is how they ultimately get inflated contracts with astronomical benefits; they remove people in management who might resist their demands and put in place a bunch of powder puffs who are happy to give out awards to kids and do all the cosmetic stuff that makes community pride seem alive and well, while in the background this sinister progressivism of wealth confiscation turns the whole ordeal into significant business terrorism.  With Darbi’s continued legal fights, she intends to return to school board meetings and finish her term over the next two years.  But regardless of all that, the revelation of these legal games has been very educational.  It has taken some of these beliefs about how taxpayer money is spent out of conspiracy theory territory and placed them into political strategy on both a national scale and a local one.  It’s all the same game plan, and in knowing that, the weaknesses in their progressive positions are apparent.  And something we are far better off knowing than we were before.
