A school board member in New Jersey was caught posting hateful Facebook messages to Rashida Tlaib. Ana Kasparian, Adrienne Lawrence, and Jayar Jackson discuss on The Young Turks. Read more here:
"A New Jersey school board member will likely face an ethics investigation for sharing posts disparaging of Muslims, including two Democratic congresswomen, on his personal Facebook page.
The posts from Toms River Regional school board member Daniel Leonard include one that states, "my life would be complete if she/they die" over a photograph of a U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib, a Michigan Democrat who is Muslim.
School Board Attorney Stephan R. Leone said Tuesday that the comments on Leonard's Facebook page "are totally inappropriate, not condoned by the Board of Education, and do not reflect the board's attitude or opinions."
Leonard, 42, of Beachwood, represents that town on the nine-member regional school board. He was elected to the board in 2016 and is seeking re-election in November.”*
