Conservative pundit and author Dana Loesch noted on social media Monday that a news crew from NBC showed up at a local school board meeting as parents blasted members over critical race theory.
Loesch noted in a lengthy Twitter thread that many parents were not only upset at the district’s attempt to adopt the highly controversial CRT but that the school board also authorized the expenditure of thousands of taxpayer dollars to hire a Dallas-based public relations firm to sell the theory and smear opponents.
“Our school board meeting is underway and NBC is there working on a hit piece to smear parents who’ve objected to the board breaking TX Open Mtgs Act, hiring a PR firm and refusing PIRs, all to bully residents into funding CRT as curriculum,” she began, accusing the Carroll Independent School District board of allegedly hiding its actions from the public.
“It’s interesting that the school entered into a deal with @sunwestpr and then suddenly hit pieces about community members began appearing everywhere. Magically, NBC is now sending cameras to our school board meeting. Of course, we can’t see invoices, so it’s all a mystery,” Loesch, who hosts a daily show on The First TV streaming network, added.

The PR firm she referenced is Sunwest Public Relations.
“The CRT proposal included establishing punishment for students who commit microaggressions — defined in the draft plan as ‘Microaggressions are defined as everyday verbal or nonverbal, snubs or insults, whether intentional or unintentional,’” Loesch continued, going on to describe what was happening at the meeting.
“Parents are right now blasting the $8,500 retainer given to @sunwestpr (the language of the letter to the school board is insane) and the school’s refusal to share invoices. Mother speaking now is a journo speaking out. ‘Taxpayer money was used to slander parents,’” Loesch wrote, spot-quoting the mother.
She went on to claim that parents who have objected to CRT being thought in the schools “have had their property vandalized” and “kids bullied.” Loesch described a student from a “single dad household” who runs a lawn service so he can buy a vehicle being bullied by “adults trying to run down his service’s ratings because he spoke out.”
Loesch also indicated that she was being asked by various people “how a town in Texas” came to adopt “Marxist CRT curriculum.”
“The answer is that no one watched the school board,” she explained. “Numerous seats were filled by unopposed candidates. That’s exactly how it happened.”
“Hopefully @sunwestpr releases invoices on this; I’d hate to think our school board hired a PR company to attack our community after they violated TX Open Mtgs Act,” she wrote.
“A mom and former teacher at the mic and is blowing up the corrupt school board with receeeeeeipts right now. HOO BOY. I doubt she will be approached by NBC to give her legitimate criticisms of the board and objections to their CRT proposal,” Loesch added.

“Apparently NBC is out talking with proponents of the CRT and supporters of the corrupt board while moms and dads are taking the board to task at the mic right now.”
She when on to note that other parents were speaking out against the CRT, including “many minority community members.”
Several users online responded to Loesch’s thread.
This is exactly – EXACTLY – one of the reasons why I’m running in my district in Texas!

CRT is racism.

Outrageous. They are doing this all over the country. Secretly developing a plan for complete indoctrination

They clearly don’t know who you are. You are the one who went on CNN, stood toe to toe with a coward who let kids die on his watch while being accused of blatantly false actions on an unfriendly network. I hope you step to the mic and school them.

The fight against CRT being taught in school is going to be super important! I hope parents can stand their ground!
