$30,000 Debate Challenge Issued to WCSD President Beth Smiith 💰 Local businessman Robert Beadles is well known in Washoe County regarding elections and elected officials. Now he is putting $30,000 up for grabs in a challenge regarding the race for Washoe County School District trustees. Beadles posted the following message on his own Operation Sunlight website : “$30,000 challenge for Beth Smith, AKA Death Smith, to publicly debate Paul White and stand by her policies and votes. Are her policies and votes making our kids safer, or closer to death and ruin in life like the parents and teachers say? If she agrees to the debate, you can decide! I would love to see Beth Smith (she/her/hers), Washoe County School District Trustee, AKA Death Smith, in a debate with someone who actually speaks the truth about the dire situation our kids and grandkids are in under her watch. I’d like to see a debate between Beth and Washoe County’s own Paul White, who is running for School Board Trustee District G. I would happily pay $30,000 in Beth’s name to a real program or organization that truly benefits the kids if she would publicly debate him. We can iron out the details of place, length, which stations and media will be present, and who will moderate; I’m easy that way.” Beadles primary concern is Smith’s policies and her public refusal to answer for them when questioned. Of particular note has been her public statement labeling parents and community members speaking at public board meetings with positions contrary to hers as “domestic terrorists”. Paul White, whom Beadles is willing to pay Smith to publicly debate, notes that under Smith’s leadership: ⁃ WCSD has a daily absence rate between 30 to 62%. ⁃ Students and staff at numerous schools have reported 50 to 75% of kids using drugs every day on campus and in class. ⁃ Some of the high schools have as many as 30 or more girls being sex trafficked pimps, and the district is aware of it, and doesn’t care. ⁃ Most recent test scores show students scored between 60% and 85% at a level considered functionally illiterate. Would you be willing to watch such a debate? #reno #sparks #washoecaounty #wcsd #nevada
