The Tennessee Conservative [By Kelly M. Jackson] –
This week, Penny Schwinn, Tennessee’s Education Commissioner since 2019, announced that she would be stepping away from the role making way for a new appointee.
Many have expressed a hope that that this would be an opportunity for Governor Lee to choose a replacement that would be different from Schwinn, since there have been reasonable criticisms of her overall performance from both sides of the aisle.
One day later, the announcement came that the replacement for Schwinn would be Lizette Gonzales Reynolds, who based on her LinkedIn profile, has not just a similar background to Schwinn, but they overlap in many places including both having served George W. Bush when he was Governor of Texas, and having filled the same exact role, one right after the other at the Texas Education Association.
Reynolds, however, appears to have an even deeper relationship to establishment, globalist oligarchies such as The Bush Family and The Haslam Family, and additional ties to organizations that are funded by the likes of George Soros, Bill and Melinda Gates, Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos.
Her work history aside, the focus for this report is primarily on Reynold’s volunteer associations and her academic credentials. Those experiences and education could be an indication about what kind of initiatives she will champion as the primary decision maker for the education of every child in Tennessee public schools.
According to information from grassroots organization Tennessee Stands, Ms. Reynolds serves or has served on several boards for education organizations that base their initiatives in SEL (Social Emotional Learning), CRT, and Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. These organizations include Knowledge Works, Generation Citizen, and IDEA Public Schools.
Reynold’s education was through The Parhara Institute, which is tied to The Aspen Institute, both organizations heavily funded by Soros and Bill and Melinda Gates.
The Aspen Institute’s core principle appears to be helping to create an “equitable” society include and look to be entirely based, according to the website’s missions statement, on the idea of eradicating racism – not sound economic policies, or education that teaches important hard skills that translate to real opportunities for financial independence, or even a relationship between decisions and consequences.
Reynolds, who will be in charge of shaping the future of education in Tennessee for the foreseeable future, comes from a training background focused on eradicating a belief that according to data, has all but disappeared in mainstream society, regardless of what the mainstream media narrative attempts to espouse.
According to research, Reynolds has no real world teaching experience in her background. Her only educational background is a B.A. in Political Science and the two-year program at The Pahara Institute.

Of course, because Bill Lee is an anti American, freedom hating, pervert loving RINO who loves when Christians get murdered as it enables his gun grab. The gun grab is designed to encourage his leftist terrorist buddies while taking away Christian’s right to defend themselves.
No surprise he picked a Sorros pervert pushing sub human to run mis education in TN.
Thank you Kelly Jackson and TCN.
