Can’t Make This Stuff Up!

Just when you think it can’t get much more weird, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, Elsie Arntzen, finds yet another bizarre way to enter the Tin-Foil-Hat Hall of Fame.  Here’s her recent statement from La La Land.

“It’s imperative that we talk about these challenging issues. Let’s talk about boys in girls bathrooms and that safety issue. Let’s talk about those litter boxes that some schools are putting out for children who want to view themselves as some sort of an animal. Is this where public education should be? I say no.”

—State Superintendent Elsie Arntzen, speaking about culture war issues in public schools during an Aug. 15 interview on Voices of Montana radio.

While we are at it, we would be remiss not to point out recent bizarre and unsubstantiated claims made by Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen.  The Montana Free Press covered Knudsen’s statements as follows:

“Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen has accused one of the state’s most prominent abortion providers of falsifying records and ‘flagrantly’  violating state law by withholding required reports about sexual assault against minors and statutory rape, suggesting that similar alleged inaction by the organization  ‘could be happening with human trafficking victims.’”
