COVID-19 is not necessarily a right-vs-left issue. The disease affects people on both sides of the political aisle despite the fact that mainstream media and Democrats claim only large conservative events are “super spreaders” of the disease. They never mention Black Lives Matter protests but are quick to lambaste the Republican National Convention in a common bit of hypocrisy.
Reactions to the coronavirus are also not purely driven by worldview as there are plenty on the right who have bought into the lockdown mantra. But those calling to reopen the nation, including schools, are generally right-leaning, which brings us to the current opportunity. According to Newsweek, teachers are resigning at alarming rates due to two opposite factors. Some are leaving because virtual classrooms are terrible and others are leaving over fears of schools reopening:
Veteran K-12 teachers in states across the U.S. are resigning and retiring at higher rates as schools begin reopening amid the coronavirus pandemic this fall, with educators citing the stress tied to remote learning, technical difficulties and COVID-19 health concerns.
Several teachers who recently resigned, retired or opted out of their jobs ahead of pandemic reopening efforts say leaving their kids has been hard, but remote learning has made their jobs too difficult. One Florida teacher said she became paranoid due to the constant requirement of being live-streamed to dozens of students throughout all hours of the day. And an Arizona high school science teacher said he resigned from a job he loves after his district voted to return students to in-person classroom learning—creating a health risk he and many other teachers say they aren’t willing to take.
The two seemingly paradoxical concerns have caused many teachers to seek different career paths, different roles or to focus on raising their own children.
For decades, the left has been systematically taking over certain systems and industries in the United States. Their control of mainstream media is widely documented, for example. Education is another industry in which the political leanings are so one-sided, it has now become difficult for conservative Americans to become teachers and professors. Whether by the nature of the ideology—conservatives are generally practitioners rather than educators in their field—or based on concerns of being isolated, there have not been enough right-leaning people getting into the education system. Now is the time for that to change.
The exodus from education is an opportunity for right-minded Americans to participate in the teaching of our youths. There may not be enough leftists leaving the field right now, but at this point even a small infusion of conservative thought would be a benefit. The minds of our children are too important to let only leftists control their education.
With leftists teachers abandoning their jobs and their students, can conservatives qualified to be educators step in to fill the void? They should. America’s youth indoctrination centers desperately need to be changed from the inside.
COVID-19 may take down an independent news outlet
Nobody said running a media site would be easy. We could use some help keeping this site afloat.
Colleagues have called me the worst fundraiser ever. My skills are squarely rooted on the journalistic side of running a news outlet. Paying the bills has never been my forte, but we’ve survived. We have ads on the site that help, but since the site’s inception this has been a labor of love that otherwise doesn’t bring in the level of revenue necessary to justify it.
When I left a nice, corporate career in 2017, I did so knowing I wouldn’t make nearly as much money. But what we do at NOQ Report to deliver the truth and fight the progressive mainstream media narrative that has plagued this nation is too important for me to sacrifice it for the sake of wealth. We know we’ll never make a ton of money this way, and we’re okay with that.
Things have become harder with the coronavirus lockdowns. Both ad money and donations that have kept us afloat for a while have dropped dramatically. We thought we could weather the storm, but the so-called “surge” or “2nd-wave” that mainstream media and Democrats are pushing has put our prospects in jeopardy. In short, we are now in desperate need of financial assistance.
The best way NOQ Report readers can help is to donate. Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal as well. We need approximately $11,500 to stay afloat for the rest of 2020, but more would be wonderful and any amount that brings us closer to our goal is greatly appreciated.
The second way to help is to become a partner. We’ve strongly considered seeking angel investors in the past but because we were paying the bills, it didn’t seem necessary. Now, we’re struggling to pay the bills. This shouldn’t be the case as our traffic the last year has been going up dramatically. June, 2018, we had 11,678 visitors. A year later in June, 2019, we were up to 116,194. In June, 2020, we had 614,192. We’re heading in the right direction and we believe we’re ready talk to patriotic investors who want to not only “get in on the action” but more importantly who want to help America hear the truth. Interested investors should contact me directly with the contact button above.
Election year or not, coronavirus lockdowns or not, anarchic riots or not, the need for truthful journalism endures. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report going.

American Conservative Movement
Join fellow patriots as we form a grassroots movement to advance the cause of conservatism. The coronavirus crisis has prompted many, even some conservatives, to promote authoritarianism. It’s understandable to some extent now, but it must not be allowed to embed itself in American life. We currently have 8000+ patriots with us in a very short time. If you are interested, please join us to receive updates.
