Alabama GOP Chair: AEA Would "Slit Our Throats"

Hold on to your hats, ChumCity citizens, because things are getting spicy in Alabama politics! State Republican Party Chairman John Wahl recently dropped a bombshell, agreeing "100%" with the idea that the Alabama Education Association (AEA) would figuratively "slit the throat" of Republican officials to help Democrats win. Ouch!

Wahl's Fiery Remarks

Wahl made the comments on WVNN's "The Dale Jackson Show," responding to a rather pointed question about the AEA's allegiances. He didn't hold back, folks.

No Love Lost

Wahl was quick to point out that he isn't exactly buddy-buddy with the AEA. He even bragged about pushing through a rule banning the AEA from donating to school board candidates, aiming to reduce their influence on education. "This is not a love affair with the AEA, okay?" he declared.

Homeschool Concerns and Broken Promises?

However, Wahl also defended his recent dialogue with the AEA regarding regulations potentially targeting homeschool families. He claimed he secured a "no regulation" pledge from them, aiming to protect parental rights. His strategy? Call them out and hold them accountable!

Holding AEA Accountable

Wahl made it clear that if the AEA goes back on their word, he'll make sure every lawmaker in Montgomery knows they "lied to me." He emphasized that the Republican supermajority in the legislature boxes the AEA in, forcing them to play by the GOP's rules. Will the AEA keep their promise? Only time will tell, ChumCity!
