Woke up to an email from the principal of my child’s school. Erika Kirk is speaking at Pinnacle High School

This Friday, she is speaking to the student club, behind closed doors, on campus, during lunch. The student club has 35 members and they are allowed to bring one guest. She will have an armed security detail. Anyone else see an issue with this?

Are Democrats left wing?

I am asking mostly to gauge the leanings of this group. Edit: Thank you for the responses, most of them are what I've hoped they were.

Lake Havasu politics ruined an Arizona spring break party

DJ CEO is a DJ, producer, and artist. He was booked to DJ in Lake Havasu for spring break, just DJ not perform his own music or anything else literally just booked to cater to the college kids partying for spring break and play top 40/hip hop hits. Not being from the area or following the politics of the area he had no clue that the owner of the venue was also the mayor of the town and was up to re-election. Some locals who weren’t even the demographic that he was booked to cater to and don’t even attend spring break parties found out he had produced a song called “F*CK ICE” last year even though it had nothing to do with the booking the mayor buckled under political pressure and canceled the event last minute. Should booked talent have to be subject to the politics of all the places they get booked to if they aren’t there for anything political? This is the same venue that has hosted drag shows as well as acts such as Tech N9ne, Paul Wall, Baby Bash, 2Chainz, and many others. Were they all subject to the same scrutiny? Only difference is this was an election year. DJ CEO was even told over the phone by the mayors assistant that the cancelation was due to the election coming up although they deny all political motivation when confronted by New Times. Interesting read none the less. What are everyone’s thoughts on this?
