The n-word spewing Capo Unified School Board member will (likely) not run again.
But Judy Bullockus and the Moms For Liberty Nutty Nut Squad have a plan in the works.
I often wonder whether people like Judy Bullockus, the n-word spewing member of the Capo Unified School Board, take pause.
What I mean is, in all the MAGA worship, in all the LGBTQ+ loathing, in all the n-word dropping, in all the mean-spiritedness … do these folks ever find themselves sitting in church come Sunday, praying to God and Jesus, and wondering, “Am I behaving righteously? Or am I a duplicitous sinner?”
I did not write those last sentences for impact. It’s serious. Take, for example, the four Moms For Liberty-backed members of the Capo Unified School Board. Bullockus, Lisa Davis, Jennifer Adnams and Lisa Zollinger. They all have human heads. Human bodies. Fingers and toes and hairs and butts. Which means they almost certainly also have genuine human emotions and (just maybe) empathy.
So as they’re trying to muck up our educational system with potential book bans and parental overlording and school mergings and things that are terribly unpopular by those who value public learning, does a small whisper in the back of their frontal lobe say, “Hey, maybe you shouldn’t …”
As they hear the replays of Donald Trump bragging about grabbing women by the pussies, or paying off porn stars, or mocking POWs for being captured, does a small whisper in the back of their frontal lobe say, “Perhaps I’m off …”
Does that ever happen.
I bring this up because I have been informed that Bullockus—aka: the Biggie Smalls of Crown Valley—is not planning on running for reelection next year. Which actually makes sense, considering she needs free time to visit the Clayton County, Ga.-based “Gone with the Wind” plantation home. But what I’ve also been told is instead of simply riding off into the sunset at the completion of her term, Bullockus may well step down early, thereby allowing the Stepfords to appoint the (hard-right, anti-reason) person of their choice.
While this might sound fairly pedestrian, it is anything of the sort. Should Bullockus resign, the board votes on a replacement. And the Jesus is my Co-Pilot Foursome has the numbers to make it the lemming of their choice.
The big problem with this is, as soon as they take over Bullockus’ slot, that lemming is an incumbent. In local elections, incumbents can be excruciatingly difficult to beat. Why? First, because they can talk about having done this and that and that and this (true or not). Second, because (sadly) 80 percent of locals don’t pay attention to school board elections, and usually absentmindedly vote for the familiar names. Third, because the right-wingers hand out tiny bottles of bubbles—and everyone on the planet loves motherfucking bubbles.
And the thing is—the plan is absolute bullshit. Like, it’s neither righteous nor decent. It’s gaming a system. Playing voters. I don’t know God personally, but my guess is a heavenly frown upon this plot.
It’s clear by now Bullockus will not step down for the n-word. So, hell, finish out your term. Do the job you were elected to do. Complain about rainbows and the number 69. But resigning in order to gain a MAGA election edge (especially in a local election) is simply wrong and deceitful and immoral and duplicitous.
Ask God the next time you’re in church.
She’ll tell you.
Thank you for pointing out how the system can be gamed.
