Teachers Pissed At Us?
That is the question. Why are the teachers at BISD pissed at us?
So, we have about 9 emails and three calls from teachers (or they say they are) screaming at us saying don’t blame us for the failure of BISD. Okay, we never have. What we did say is that there are a group of teachers that have pulled down the district. How? Rather than teach they are escorting students through high school, which doesn’t help anyone especially the student.
This leaves us saying: “You broke it, you bought it.”
Now do we blame all teachers? HELL NO. Do be blame the leadership of the teachers groups in Southeast, Texas? Hell yes.
Why?
We believe just like every other lobby group they forget why there are there. Teachers are there to teach. The first reaction we always get, like this week, is that we have no idea what is going on in the schools and the break down of the family. Okay? True, we are not there everyday, but it is important to note that there really is not that much they can do other than push the students issue to the parents and the administration, where it is said that it is a push through system at BISD. Reading is at an all time low – why not say no graduation and we will try again next year? Math, only 18% of BISD students are proficient in math to graduate. But no, we push them through and now we send a bunch of kids out into the world with no math skills. In some cases they cannot even pass 8th grade testing at BISD.
Even the judges are frustrated at BISD as they see criminals, not even being able to read on the 6th grade level and they are in 12th grade? What the hell?
Now on the other side of the fence we have the kids going through school and getting good grades, studying, working hard to get into a college, and the frustration of our friends over at Lamar University telling us the same thing. According to one professor we spoke with 1/10 kids are ready for college work. The others? Well they get confused with they fail in their courses.
Again? Who is responsible? It falls on the teachers and the administrators.
We here at the Review love all teachers. We love how they care, we love how they try and teach only to be hit by a brick wall of stupid. And we love how they try and reach out to the parents who are now (in Jefferson County) are living in a 60% divorce parental home (for those of you in South Newton County means 6 out of 10 families are in a divorce situation). Just ask the two divorce judges. They will tell you.
So get mad at us for pointing out the social failures. We get the teachers. But the teachers need to point out the obvious, not get up in front of a new school board and talk about open doors rather than closed doors. That has to be one of the funniest things we have ever seen or heard. Safety? We are in that business. Teaching? We are also in that business. Holding yourself responsible for your bit of the pie in failure? We too are there as we have a zero sum failure rate placed upon us.
Maybe just maybe take some of the responsibility. Your pay is up like you asked, the children’s test scores are down unlike what you promised. The teachers are becoming radicalized, because they can. And the kids are losing.
Again, teachers and administrators and families, “You broke it, you bought it.”
Now fix it.
Republican Shock
It was a busy week last week. In fact, before we knew it, it was Friday, and our editor had lunch downtown. And out of nowhere, as he was walking into the Riverside Grill to get his wonderful Steak and Mushroom hamburger (which we highly recommend), there at the door was none other than Dillion Richardson! A nice, firm handshake, and we’re off to our meeting.
Now, why do we mention this? Well, as we were in another meeting before going into that meeting, something had happened the night before. There was an election. We were told that it was a meeting where nobody showed up again. However, our sources, who had tried to call us, couldn’t get through to our editor, as he is again a very busy person.
Anyway, finally, during the lunch meeting, a bombshell was dropped.
Seemingly, there was a meeting (not so secret) inside the Jefferson County Republican Party. It had to do with getting Dylan Richardson elected to office as a Pct. Chairman.
No, we are not kidding. The Dylan Richardson who runs around and fakes his credentials, blows air up political asses, and has his own set of legal problems. Ya, we are not kidding. He got elected to the Pct. Chairman for the Jefferson County Republican party as nominated by the GOP Chairman himself.
You cannot make this stuff up!
Now, some of you might be asking why we are a little poofed up about this? Well, let us refresh your memory. Here is a wake-up call?
Or maybe this:
Wait? Who is that? Oh, that is Tom Flanagan with Robin Mouton after a nice dinner together at the Schooner Restaurant in the back of the building, all by themselves.
At the same time, we were snapping pictures (after being tipped about the meeting), a police officer was having a nice dinner and snapping pictures, the feds are said to be in the same restaurant snapping their own and video. Why? Well, it seems Mr. Flanagan is under investigation, as well as Mr. Richardson.
Why is this a big deal? Seems there is testimony of MONEY LAUNDERING by a certain guy who was paid to be in between. His name? Dylan Richardson.
Now this last week, Flanagan had the opportunity to give states evidence on some other fun things he knows, we are told. He turned down that opportunity. As he should. So now it looks like his head (Richardson) is on the block. Dylan likes to talk. And there are recordings we are told of him talking to those whom he thinks are his friends. What he has not figured out is that this is Jefferson County, and when you are charged, no deals when it is political, unless, of course, you want to say everything you know.
Just ask some of the reverends. Hint, Hint, Hint.
What is it all about, and again, this is too funny for what we have been told:
- Miles Haynes, incoming President of the Neches River Fest, got caught on Government Phones ordering sex snacks while working, and now they are looking at his credit cards! (Do they wear those funny hats and masks in jail??)
- Christina Delegoto and her involvement with Tom Flanagan. She was Neches River Fest CITIZEN OF THE YEAR (fits – right?).
- Dylan Richardson, for his involvement in money laundering with Flanagan.
- And four others that were involved in a building fire and other crimes.
- Did we mention the IRS special investigations being involved? Guess not.
So now you get the drift. Those dark clouds tonight are what is coming, we are told, in the next few weeks. And the bigwigs in the big chairs in the media all know we are told. They have known for months and have not written ONE STORY. And it doesn’t come up on the cell phones of the reporters. If you catch our drift. Oh, do we long for the old days of Kelly Phillips, Al Zipp, Dan Walich, Tiffany Murphy, and many more who were REPORTERS.
But now, what do we have in the media? NADA. They are all gone.
So to warm you Republicans up, Dylan Richardson is now a Jefferson County Republican Pct. Chairman. And some of the dumbass Republican Women are so happy! No really.
We are wondering how the new chairman is going to spin this. If we hear out of his mouth ONE TIME that “they are presumed innocent,” we are going to go nuts. That means this new chairman has NO IDEA what he is doing, and he is listening to the wrong people.
So much work the party has done will be flushed down the toilet.
The good news for the Republicans is that the Jefferson County Democratic Party has hired Mary Bond to take over again (giggle, just making it up).
Every time we say it, “YOU CANNOT MAKE THIS STUFF UP”, we find that some of these people in office have NO IDEA of what they are doing. And that shows why SET is in so much trouble. The same people, the same schemes, the same false flags, the same inability to lead.
But it gives us here at the Review GLEE to point it out. And we will continue to do so.
