DeSantis Condemns Biden Administration for Targeting Parents With FBI

"In recent months, there has been a disturbing spike in harassment, intimidation, and threats of violence against school administrators, board members, teachers, and staff who participate in the vital work of running our nation's public schools," Garland continued. "While spirited debate about policy matters is protected under our Constitution, that protection does not extend to threats of violence or efforts to intimidate individuals based on their views."

Using the FBI to look into vocal parents is being perceived as an egregious effort to intimidate parents from attending school board meetings to voice their opposition.

But 2022 gubernatorial candidates and Florida Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried, believes that Garland is only calling on the FBI to investigate parents as a way of protecting those same parents, children, and teachers from any potential harm.

Fried also went as far as to say that DeSantis was embarrassing Floridians by pushing parental choice in schools.

"Attorney General Garland is using law and order (FBI) to protect children, parents, and teachers from crime. Florida will continue to be embarrassed by Governor DeSantis and his contempt for the law and the safety of our children," tweeted Commissioner Fried.

DeSantis has said that critical race theory teaches children to believe "America is a rotten place." While the Biden administration asserts that CRT is not taught in K-19 schools, that argument has already been debunked.

The Broward County School District in Florida is openly pushing CRT education on their website. They are not hiding it.,
