Brooks Resigns, China Tensions, And More On The Brett Winterble Show
Manage episode 485671806 series 2873625
Tune in here to this Tuesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show!
Brett kicks off the program joined by Breaking Brett Jensen to discuss the sudden resignation of Jamie Brooks, principal of Ardrey Kell High School. Brooks, who had been suspended with pay since May 2, informed staff of her departure earlier that afternoon, drawing mixed reactions from parents and the community. Her controversial tenure included backlash over mandatory social justice homerooms, a bat infestation incident known as “batgate,” and a violent altercation involving a football player and a Muslim student that led to lawsuits and public outcry.
Later, we're joined by Gordon G. Chang, noted China expert and author, to talk about the Trump administration’s move to revoke Chinese student visas and growing tensions with Beijing. Chang supports the visa revocations, citing serious concerns over espionage, surveillance, and intellectual property theft involving Chinese students monitored by state agents. He warns that legal pushback from U.S. judges could undermine national security, describing the situation as an “emergency.” Chang also addresses forced Uyghur labor in Chinese factories supplying global brands and emphasizes that such goods should be banned under U.S. law.
