Indian immigrant rips Democrats who rejected her nomination to education board: 'Blatant lies and smears'
Fox News
Gov. Glenn Youngkin appointee Suparna Dutta spoke with 'Fox & Friends First' after her Virginia Board of Education nomination was rejected following her defense of the Constitution.
Dutta, who was appointed by Youngkin in July, was set to be confirmed by the Senate of Virginia Tuesday when a last-minute Democrat amendment to remove her from nominations passed on a party-line vote, according to a progressive group that tracks the state's General Assembly. Taylor Penley is a production assistant with Fox News.
The ousting followed a heated exchange last week during a board meeting reviewing proposed changes to history and social science standards in Virginia public schools. Two of the foundational principles outlined in the learning standards are that the "Declaration of Independence and the Constitution are remarkable documents" and that socialism and communism are "incompatible with democracy and individual freedoms."
