Mother of Fourth Grader Shocked by ‘Horrific’ Letter From MAGA Congresswoman to Son: ‘You Attacked a Child

Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-NC) responded to a letter from a fourth grader by telling him he had been propagandized by a teacher who is “indoctrinating you.”

That teacher assigned Christian Mango, a 10-year-old from Greensboro, North Carolina, and his classmates, to write a persuasive essay and send it to someone in a position to act on the request.

In an interview with Fox 8 in Greensboro on Monday, Christian explained that he chose to write to Foxx to urge her to support giving people rebates for purchasing electric vehicles. His mother, Emily Mango, said the topic was chosen by her son.

The type to call the cops if your lawn isn't perfectly mowed or someone parks on the street.

Guess she's leaning into it.

She reminds me of the old lady in the marble rye episode of Seinfeld. I loved that show.
