On November 7, elections for local school boards will occur in communities all over America. Many of the public schools of this nation have been co-opted by the radical, LGBTQ lobby and their powerful allies to be used to sexualize and indoctrinate children into a distorted and harmful view of sexuality. Will you protect our kids this November by voting in your school board elections for candidates who will stand up for biblical values?

When the Hunger Games book series came to the big screen in 2012, many people were disgusted by the premise. In that series, a dystopian society in the future enslaves its population, and when the people rise up, their rebellion is crushed. Every year thereafter, in a display of brute force, “the Capitol” requires each district to send a boy and girl between the ages of 12-18 to compete in a fight to the death. The idea that watching children slaughter one another could be valid entertainment left some people wondering if we were crossing the line as a society.  

Fans of the series said we shouldn’t worry, as it was just fiction, and that nothing like that could ever really happen. This is America, after all: the land of the free, home of the brave. Where families and children are cherished. 

But today’s headlines show that our nation is indeed sacrificing its children, and in more ways than one. The LGBTQ lobby and it’s woke and corrupt allies in media, business, government and education are sacrificing our children to a depraved and predatory ideology unlike anything we have seen before. 

If It Walks Like a Duck… 

In 2021, the San Francisco Gay Man’s Chorus posted a video on YouTube entitled, “A Message From the Gay Community.” You might remember it. The lyrics boasted: “We’re coming for your children,” “And you will barely notice it.” “You think that we’ll corrupt your kids if our agenda goes unchecked. It’s funny just this once…you’re correct.”  

When some concerned Christians raised an alarm, the producers of the video said they didn’t mean what they said, and the performance was just a parody calling for “tolerance.” But, two years later, it’s very clear that the Gay chorus video had nothing to do with tolerance, and everything to do with a real agenda of grooming children to accept distorted sexuality as normal and healthy. In June, the Post Millennial shared a video on X with the caption: “Fully naked adults riding bikes expose their genitalia to children at Seattle Pride.” [Warning: the video contains graphic nudity and is not suitable for young viewers.] 

All over the nation, the organization “Drag Queen Story Hour (DSH)” is hosting drag shows expressly for children in schools and libraries. Their website states, “DSH captures the imagination and play of the gender fluidity of childhood and gives kids glamorous, positive, and unabashedly queer role models.” Imagination, as defined by Merriam-Webster, is “the act or power of forming a mental image of something not present to the senses or never before wholly perceived in reality.” 

Parents across the nation are discovering that school library shelves have been stocked with graphic books portraying sexual activity by minors, especially homosexual activity. The books also often include portrayals of alcohol and drug use, obscene language, and attitudes that foster disrespect of parents and religious belief. Truth and Liberty did a search of the public high school library in Woodland Park, Colorado (the small, rural Colorado town where its offices are located) and discovered over 50 LGBT books.    

The Scriptures say that devising wicked imaginations is an abomination to the Lord (Proverbs 6:16-19) on par with shedding innocent blood. Willfully foisting on the minds of innocent children sexually themed images of any kind is abhorrent behavior. How much more when the sexual imagery is distorted and bizarre? 

The Enemy Among Us 

The LGBTQ lobby’s agenda to subvert children has found willing and powerful allies in the corporate, media, and political worlds. A movement is now well underway in legal and academic institutions to decriminalize and de-stigmatize pedophilia.  

Three years ago, Ghislaine Maxwell was arrested and ultimately sentenced to twenty years in prison for conspiring with Jeffrey Epstein to sexually exploit minors. Epstein was well known for cavorting with billionaires, celebrities, and government elites. One hundred eighty-three individuals were listed as having connections to Epstein, including many notable celebrities and high-level politicians. Not a single arrest has been made, even though there are logs to clearly identify who visited Epstein’s Island.  

Allies of the LGBT agenda include corporations like Target, Balenciaga, and Disney. Earlier this year, Target’s 2023 “PRIDE” collection featured the “Abprellen” clothing line led by transgender satanist Erik Carnell, who defended Target’s decision while infamously wearing a “Satan Respects Pronouns” t-shirt.  

A search of Target’s website for “pronouns” reveals that Target is continuing to sell a seemingly endless variety of products for children and infants promoting homosexuality, transgenderism and even satanism. The grotesque products include “pride” t-shirts, books about transgenderism, a Satanic bible, and “tucking” apparel. Perhaps the most disturbing result to come up when searching for pronouns is children’s laxatives. Laxatives are used by gay men in preparation for anal intercourse. What other conclusion can be drawn from Target’s decision to make children’s laxatives show up in a search for “pronouns,” except children are being groomed for deviant sexual behavior involving adults?  

In 2022, the high-end fashion company Balenciaga launched a marketing campaign featuring pictures of young children holding teddy bears wearing gear associated with sexual sadism and masochism and a black lace thong. The pictures also showed a copy of a United States Supreme Court case addressing child pornography, and other items suggestive of S&M. Another ad featured a young boy standing in the midst of multiple items suggestive of Satan and Baal worship. The company’s quick apology after the scandalous news broke, claiming that it knew nothing of the campaign, rang hollow when people discovered the unbelievable imagery posted on the social media account by their chief designer, celebrating Satan worship, cannibalism, and a disemboweled child.  

The Walt Disney Corporation, once the go-to destination for wholesome family entertainment, came under fire last year when a video recording surfaced of executives discussing their plan to insert a “not-at-all-secret gay agenda” into children’s programming, and to “add queerness” wherever possible. 

Disney was not aiming only for its own children’s programming and theme parks. It wants to influence politics too. When Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed the Parental Rights in Education law, which states that “Classroom instruction by school personnel or third parties on sexual orientation or gender identity may not occur in kindergarten through grade 3 or in a manner that is not age appropriate or developmentally appropriate,” Disney became decidedly political, denouncing the commonsense legislation in a public statement

Afterward, Disney promptly donated $5M to LGBTQ charities to show they meant business when it comes to empowering teachers to talk to five-year-old children about sex, especially gay sex. But not to worry, as the world’s largest provider of children’s entertainment, with a net worth of $145B, there’s no shortage of wealth to invest in the indoctrination of our children. 

Erin Lee’s Story 

On a recent episode of The Truth & Liberty Live Call-In Show, Colorado mom Erin Lee shared her encounter with the devastating LGBTQ indoctrination efforts underway in our public schools. She recounted that in May 2021 her 12-year-old daughter went back to school after Covid lockdowns, wanting to connect with peers her own age once more. She was invited by a schoolteacher to what they were told was an after-school art club. But it wasn’t an art club at all.  It was a Gay and Lesbian Student Alliance meeting. The guest speaker that day was Kimberly Chambers, the director of SPLASH Youth of Northern Colorado. SPLASH’s website states that they “serve” youth ages 5-24, hosting meetups both online and in person, discussing topics such as polyamory (the practice of having more than one intimate or sexual relationship at a time) and meeting up for events like pride marches or drag shows where children are encouraged to bring dollar bills to tip performers like “Lola Gag” and “Trina Tuckit.” 

The Poudre School District teacher never warned Lee about the real purpose of the meeting, much less that Chambers would be speaking to her twelve-year-old daughter about things like puberty blockers.  Lee stated that, in the meeting, Chambers asked Lee’s impressionable preteen daughter whether she was “100% comfortable” in her female body.  When she said, “no” (like almost all 12-year-old girls would), according to Lee, Chambers told her “Then you are transgender.”  Lee’s daughter was also asked “Who are you attracted to?” (at 12 years old), and when she said she didn’t know, she was informed that she was “queer.” Lee recounted that Chambers went on to tell the girl that her parents may not be “safe,” but that she (Chambers) was safe and shared her personal cell phone number and instructions on how to set up accounts on social media platforms Discord and What’s App so that she could communicate with a “safe” adult.  According to Lee, Chambers also told the young girl that it’s okay to lie to her parents about the club. To top things off, they showered her with rainbow flags, stickers, and other LGBTQ material, as well as introduced her to other children in the class as her new friends.

When Erin Lee’s daughter came home and announced to her mom, “I’m trans,” Lee was stunned. She contacted the school with her concerns. School officials dutifully stood behind the LGBTQ recruiting session. Emails discovered by Lee show that school officials conspired to report Lee to state child protective services for opposing their agenda. Lee was so angered by the predatory behavior that she called the police, but the police said because it occurred in a classroom and there was no accusation of physical touch or exposure of body parts, they could not do anything. 

The events introduced a long period of confusion and depression for Lee’s daughter where she ultimately left a suicide note for her parents. Thankfully, the young girl finally opened up to her father that she really didn’t want to be a boy, and the healing process began. Today, Erin says her daughter is in a much better place, but not without battle scars. The Lees are currently suing the Poudre School District for violating their First and Fourteenth Amendment rights. They have also removed their children from PSD. Their hope is the lawsuit will help enforce parental rights, as well as encourage other parents to speak up. 

What Can We Do? 

In the Hunger Games story, the brutal victimization of children by the powerful elite was enabled by the cultural belief that the children did not belong to their parents, but to the Capitol, to be used as political pawns. Our consciences tell us that God created the family and instilled in parents the role of protector, nurturer, and teacher. Yet today, the LGBT lobby, in league with teachers’ unions and other progressives, has launched an aggressive assault on parental rights. 

The assault on parental rights in this nation initially surfaced in the 1990’s when Hillary Clinton book infamously titled, “It Takes a Village” advocated for compulsory, universal government-run preschool. Today, the President of the National Federation of Teachers has endorsed the view that parents have no right to shape the education of their children and that standing up for parents’ rights is just a political ploy by white racists. The national, union-dominated school board association went so far as to demand that the FBI treat upset parents as domestic terrorists, a notion that Merrick Garland, Biden’s attorney general, was perfectly willing to implement. 

This November, we have a chance to stand in the way of those who would use our children for their dark agenda to normalize perversion and attack God’s plan for the family. Approximately 9,000 school districts across 35 states are holding regular school board elections in 2023, impacting over 10 million students. We can pray, we can vote, and we can volunteer for those candidates who will uphold a biblical worldview

Please stand for the children of this nation against these dark forces by voting in school board elections in your area. Make sure you vote for candidates who will fight for biblical standards of family and sexuality in our schools.  

Make no mistake, the San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus video was no parody.  

The satanic inspiration of the LGBTQ lobby’s effort to target children is apparent to all with open eyes. Note the open satanism of Erik Carnell and the satanic imagery in the Balenciaga ad campaign. Truth and Liberty co-host, Alex McFarland recently posted this photo to social media, depicting a letter from someone claiming to be Satan boasting that his servants were making inroads in the areas of government, media, and education, all while making threats against our children. 

The proof is impossible to ignore. Powerful, dark and highly organized segments of our society are indeed coming for our children. Will you stand with Truth & Liberty this November to protect our children from their evil agenda?
