Ingrid Gant, former president of the Arlington Education Association (AEA), was arrested after police conducted a six-month audit that showed she embezzled $410,782.10 from the union, according to the Fairfax County Police Department. Gant was charged with four counts of embezzlement and allegedly used debit cards for unauthorized purchases and gave herself multiple bonuses.
Gant was fired from the union in March 2022 after she failed to provide tax returns and financial reports to board members, according to WRIC News.
Before being fired, Grant addressed a letter to the superintendent of Arlington Public Schools regarding the spread of COVID-19, the New York Post reported. Grant called indoor lunch at school a “super-spreader” and said as Omicron cases increase, teachers will be making the “ultimate sacrifice.”
After an Arlington parent shared a copy-edited version of the letter, it went viral on Twitter in June 2021, according to the New York Post. The parent who shared the letter noted that the president made 20 grammar mistakes.
In January, a former teachers union treasurer in Pennsylvania was charged with embezzling more than $400,000 over the past eight years, according to the Reading Eagle. Detectives determined that the treasurer was withdrawing money from the union’s bank accounts and putting the money in her own.
Fairfax County Police Department and the AEA did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.

EDITOR’S NOTE: What is behind the current war against America’s children? Why are so many adults killing their unborn children right up to the moment of birth, or even after? Why are millions of kids sexualized virtually from birth, and injected with an experimental “vaccine” proven to be both ineffective and dangerous, then as toddlers transported to events glorifying mentally ill, demonically possessed men dressed as women?
Why are America’s children systematically sexualized at school, and by transgender recruiters on social media platforms like TikTok, seducing many into “identifying” as the opposite gender, or a brand-new imaginary gender, then encouraged to take powerful drugs and hormones and have their healthy breasts amputated or undergo chemical or surgical castration?
Why are our children simultaneously indoctrinated with toxic Marxist ideologies like “critical race theory” intended to condition them to hate and reject their own country, parents, faith, race, gender and themselves? Why are they simultaneously being frightened of the future by being fed lurid, terrifying – and groundless – apocalyptic tales of the imminent destruction of the world due to global warming?
No wonder youth suicides have skyrocketed, as have depression, anxiety, addiction and drug overdoses. Indeed, fentanyl, the No. 1 cause of death of younger Americans 18 to 45, destroys multitudes of children annually.
Make no mistake: The harm being done to America’s children in this multi-front war is not accidental: Children are the primary target.
WHY? How can all this be happening in the greatest nation on earth? Who and what is behind it? And HOW CAN IT BE STOPPED?
