Critics question Garland’s school board crackdown after son-in-law revealed as social justice education kingpin:

Attorney General Merrick Garland, who earlier this week injected the FBI into the nationwide debate over far-left local school curriculums, has a son-in-law whose company has gotten rich peddling K-12 educational materials obsessed with “systemic racism,” “intersectionality,” and white supremacy.

Alexander “Xan” Tanner, who married Garland’s daughter Rebecca in 2018, is the co-founder and president of Panorama Education, a major player in the teacher training and curriculum industry. Panorama pushes race-focused surveys and conducts trainings on systemic oppression, white supremacy, unconscious bias, and intersectionality — all under the rubric of “Social-Emotional Learning.”

Critics who viewed Garland’s recent order as an effort to chill parental outrage over controversial theories finding their way into mainstream classrooms say the family connection is a bad look.

“At the very least, it certainly creates an appearance of a conflict of interest,” Ian Prior, a former DOJ spokesman and the executive director of Fight For Schools, told the Washington Examiner. —>READ MORE HERE

Conflict Of Interest? AG Garland’s Family Getting Rich Selling Critical Race Theory Materials To Schools:

When it comes to conflicts of interest, Attorney General Merrick Garland appears to have a huge one.

Merrick’s daughter, Rebecca Garland, is married to the co-founder of an education resource company that pushes critical race theory – which angry parents across the country are protesting. Taking matters into his own hands, AG Garland tapped the FBI on Monday to huddle with local leaders to address a “disturbing spike in harassment, intimidation, and threats of violence” against teachers and school board members.

As the Conservative Treehouse writes:

Well, well, well… This is interesting. U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland recently instructed the FBI to begin investigating parents who confront school board administrators over Critical Race Theory indoctrination material. The U.S. Department of Justice issued a memorandum to the FBI instructing them to initiate investigations of any parent attending a local school board meeting who might be viewed as confrontational, intimidating or harassing.
