The nefarious forces of darkness don’t stop coming for our kids at local public libraries. As such, we must remain vigilant with library board appointments. That old cliche could never be more true. All that’s required for evil to prevail is for good men to [not supply applicants to their local library board.]
We regularly do this work quietly. That’s because the less attention we bring to it, hopefully, the less attention will be paid to it by the wokies. However, our work is occasionally noticed by the media, who are notorious for getting all of the details wrong. I just couldn’t let a recent article by the Advocate go unchallenged. As usual, the Advocate puts out erroneous information matter-of-factly as if it were the truth. It’s not.
In the video, I’ll be referring to some deep research we did on Christie Maloyed about a year ago. She’s the leftist’s failed three-time candidate for the library board. Here’s the link to that article:

Facts First. Even When They’re Inconvenient.
Some outlets or groups tell you what to think. Others have discovered there’s an easier way to build an audience: tell people exactly what they want to hear. We’ve chosen a harder path.
At Citizens for a New Louisiana, we start with the evidence — public records, financial disclosures, court filings, voting records, audits, and original documents — and follow it wherever it leads. Sometimes the facts confirm what we expected. Sometimes they surprise us. Sometimes they disappoint our friends. Either way, we publish them.
That approach doesn’t always produce the loudest headlines or the easiest fundraising. But over time, it produces something much more valuable: TRUST. If you value independent Louisiana journalism that puts evidence ahead of outrage and principle ahead of tribe, please help us continue the work.

Publi libraries date back to Andrew Carnegie, over a century ago. Now that everyone has access to the Internet, owns a cell phone, are they still a public good?
I am an avid reader but believe that our tax-paid libraries serve mostly as baby-sitting services, especially for unwed mothers. My daughter-in-law is a college librarian up north; she and the entire American Library Association are rabid Left-wingers.
We should close the Lafatette public libraries down and save the city millions each year.
