The Racial Justice Alliance is pissed. The legal weed industry is too damn white, they say. Not enough people of color. And they say it was built to be that way, and they demand that Vermont change theirs.
If you were thinking about violating Thanksgiving restrictions, the state of Vermont expects you to think twice. They have announced plans to interrogate parents and students next Monday. Did you travel for Thanksgiving?
In June, the US Supreme Court ruled that states could not discriminate against schools based on religion regarding tuitioning rules. Grandparents from Croydon, NH, promptly sued the state over its prohibition. Three families in Vermont have just done the same in theirs.
Liberty is much rarer than life, but Vermont has successfully turned some of its people against it. The State’s health department (peace be upon them) received 194 complaints about COVID19 violations of the State’s Emergency Orders.
When things don’t go your way, you change the rules. That’s the look I’m getting from Vermont, where parents announcing their intent to homeschool is up 75%. The problem? “State law at present allocates funding to school districts on an “Average Daily Membership (ADM).”
Manchester Vermont thought it had become a COVID19 hot spot. The areas went into crisis mode, but the problem was not a coronavirus outbreak; it was a crappy CDC test outbreak. By the time the dust settled, nearly all the positive tests were negative.
If you were thinking about spinning up a private or charter school on the fly, Vermont is ripe for picking. A majority of Superintendents said they wouldn’t be able to open public schools before Sept 8th. Why? They are not convinced they will have the staff or teachers to “do school.”
The pressure across New England to engage in useless virtue-signaling grows. Vermont Governor Phil Scott has introduced a statewide order mandating masks in public. To slow the spread, don’t you know.
Four days ago, we reported on how 33 of 63 positive test results in Manchester, Vermont, were false positives. If that’s disconcerting, hold my beer. That number went up. Of the 65 positive tests reported, 48 turned out to be false positives. That’s a 73% failure rate.
Vermont Governor Tim Scott (D – Registered as a Republican) has an announcement. He is appeasing the idiot Left by “joining 15 states and the District of Columbia in a push to electrify buses and trucks.” Electric shock therapy might be better because these vehicles are worse for emissions, not better.
