Florida Governor Ron DeSantis fired back at President Joe Biden for the President’s recent comments regarding banning books —a thinly-veiled shot at the Sunshine State’s CRT clean up efforts. DeSantis spoke with Laura Ingraham during an Ingraham Angle town hall event.
“Today there are too many politicians trying to score political points, trying to ban books – even math books,” Biden said Wednesday during the annual National and State Teachers of the Year award ceremony.
“Did you ever think when you’re teaching you’d be worrying about book burnings and banning books all because it doesn’t fit somebody’s political agenda?” Biden added.
DeSantis shared his thoughts on the comments with Ingraham.
“We want education, we do not want indoctrination,” DeSantis said.

DeSantis added that his administration believes parents have a “fundamental role” in their children’s upbringing and education while Biden and his administration believe parents should “butt out” so schools can indoctrinate “what they think your kid should learn or believe.”
“This is a huge debate in our country – it’s sad that it is,” DeSantis continued.
“Why would you not want parents involved? But they don’t want parents involved because they know that will represent an obstacle to them indoctrinating them the way they want.”
