Teacher who tried to ruin Trump aide's life with glue charge, suspended

The teacher who tried to ruin White House advisor Stephen Miller's life and possibly getting him a week of detention and eraser-cleaning, is getting suspension.

Miller, an alleged "controversial" aide to President Trump, had been accused of glue-eating by teacher Nikki Fiske when little Stephen was in the 3rd grade. That made him about 8-years-old; certainly old enough to know that eating glue could, and probably will, come back to haunt him one day.

Fiske, however, was not lauded by her school and instead, has been forced to take a "time out."

The Daily Beast reported:
The teacher who claimed this week that controversial White House aide Stephen Miller ate glue as a kid has been suspended from her job. Miller--now the mastermind behind Donald Trump's most hardline immigration policies--was an odd kid, according to comments from veteran teacher Nikki Fiske. She recounted this week to The Hollywood Reporter: "He would pour the glue on his arm, let it dry, peel it off, and then eat it. He was a strange dude."
But was he as strange as that weird 9-year-old in the back of the room that farted incessantly and ate his boogers?

The Hollywood Reporter said the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District has placed Fiske on "home assignment" while deciding what to do about the matter. [Something about privacy matters and "her release of student information." Maybe they frown on it.]

The angry teacher also said of then 8-year-old Miller: "I was always trying to get him to clean up his desk--he always had stuff mashed up in there."

Fiske said that she was not concerned about Miller academically. Obviously, he is an intelligent man. But then again, wasn't he something of a typical child? Kids do weird stuff--it's in their job description.

But what the hell was The Hollywood Reporter thinking that it was a good idea to publish this crap?

Do you see now why Trump won?

Another lib-dude bites the dust: CBS fires Brad Kern

CBS has fire "NCIS: New Orleans" [pronounced Nawleens] show-runner Brad Kern after a multiple allegations of misconduct were investigated by an outside counsel, as opposed to law enforcement.

The left-leaning network's spokesperson told Fox News, "We have ended Brad Kern's role as consulting producer on 'NCIS: New Orleans' and his overall deal with the studio." In other words, they fired his misogynistic butt.

The news was first made public by The Hollywood Reporter. "Kern harassed and unfairly penalized women, repeatedly bullied a nursing mother and made racially insensitive statements," as well as other claims.

Last month Les Moonves, CBS's Chief Executive, resigned after no less that a dozen women came forward accusing him of sexual misconduct in an article by Ronan Farrow.

The Hollywood Reporter said that "several former 'NCIS: New Orleans' employees reached Monday said that they believe Kern would still be working at CBS" if Moonves wasn't gone.

CBS said after the Moonves dismissal that it would give $20 million to organizations "that support the #MeToo movement and equality for women in the workplace."

And to make CBS appear to be appalled and surprised.

Kern was initially accused of scumbaggery last December--the allegation was of sexual harassment and discrimination against a woman and using racially insensitive remarks in the workplace. CBS told Variety that investigators found evidence of "insensitive" and "offensive" comments, but nothing about any harassment or discrimination came up.

It didn't end there as more accusations caused CBS Television Studios to hire an independent investigator back in June "to look into allegations of harassment and misconduct," The Hollywood Reporter reported as reporters often do.

"My thoughts are with everyone who had worked for Mr. Kern who was unjustly fired, made miserable until they quit or otherwise endured unpleasantness." But it isn't clear if CBS plans to rehire those that fled. If they did, they would have bragged about it.

"I hope that this signals the end of the era of show-running he represented," an "NCIS: New Orleans" staffer told THR.
