Dem Rep. Ro Khanna Is Shocked — SHOCKED — to Learn Progressive Education Is a Race to the Bottom – Twitchy

The Democratic Party has wholeheartedly embraced the soft bigotry of low expectations. In the name of ‘equity,’ they’ve pushed to eliminate honors and AP classes because they were just too White/Asian, and it wasn’t fair.

Rather than demanding other students strive for better and excel in school, they punished the achievers by dumbing down the curriculum.

And now Rep. Ro Khanna is trying to make political hay out of something his party did:

It is absurd that Palo Alto School district just voted to remove honors biology for all students & already removed honors English. They call it de-laning. I call it an assault on excellence. I took many honors classes at Council Rock High in PA.

Get dragged, Khanna.

If only someone had an in with the party doing this.

If only.

Did you see what they did to Rowena Chiu? It’s radicals in your own party who are doing this to school districts up and down the state.

The Democrats are like locusts, moving in swarms and destroying all in their path.

Wow, Ro finally seeing the light. Perhaps there’s hope for education in CA.

Your party is destroying education in the name of equity. Dumbing down students so everyone is equally stupid.

How brilliant.

No one accused the Democrats of being smart.

Why are you surprised? The left has been destroying quality public schools for years!

Hand the guy a mirror.

Progressivism is a race to the bottom.

Yes it is.

Anyone else think the only reason he posted this was to brag about his high school career like some dork version of Al Bundy? https://t.co/49A1Emq1Xi

TRUTH.

The purpose of a system is what it does. And the teachers unions, along with the Democrats that support them, want your kids dumber. https://t.co/U3po4uBQo1

And it shows.

This is sickening. Why not honor the students who deserve honors??? https://t.co/m1KNKg4PmZ

Because it’s ‘unfair’ and ‘racist.’

That’s why, at least according to Democrats.

Every man who excels is proof that we are not all equal. They will do everything in their power to bury that proof because their false god demands it–for as long as we allow them to. https://t.co/FB4CtXNREj
