Idiot of the Week: NJ School Board Member , "Disgusted by LGBTQ Curriculum" Literally Flushes her Career Away

 If you are on a video meeting at work and you have to go to the restroom, turn your video screen OFF
and MUTE your microphone. Then leave the computer in your office. Don't take it with you into the bathroom AND leave your video and audio streaming. Well, this week's idiot of the week did just that. It seems to be Karma anyway, since she was so hateful against LGBT people. Let this be a lesson to the idiots... Karma will catch up with you, or you'll just show the world how dumb you are in other ways. Here's the story of this week's idiot!

NJ school board member resigns after bathroom mishap in Zoom meeting 

By Lia Eustachewich NY POST November 25, 2020

A New Jersey woman who once said she was “disgusted” by LGBT curriculum flushed her career on a local school board down the toilet this week by accidentally broadcasting her bathroom break on Zoom during a public meeting.

Frances Cogelja resigned as a trustee of the Hackensack Board of Education over the embarrassing video fail Monday night when she brought her laptop into the bathroom to relieve herself, according to the Daily Voice.

Cogelja apparently was unaware she’d left the camera on — and her trip to the toilet was witnessed by nearly 140 attendees of the virtual meeting, including students.

The board’s vice president, Scott James-Vickery, addressed the NSFW spectacle later on.

“As far as I’m concerned, while our teachers are being professional and you’re at home, sitting on the toilet, we are moving on with this district doing what’s best,” he said.

Cogelja’s resignation was announced by the board Tuesday afternoon.

It has until Jan. 29 to fill her board seat.

Reached by phone, Cogelja declined to discuss her resignation with The Post.

“I will not have a statement,” she said.

Cogelja made headlines over the summer for saying she was “disgusted and appalled” by a new law requiring LGBT history to be taught in classrooms, NorthJersey.com reported at the time.

“I find it repugnant that someone’s sexual preferences have anything to do with their contributions or achievements in society,” Cogelja wrote in an email to acting Superintendent Rosemary Marks in February. “Everywhere I turn, this alternate lifestyle narrative is being shoved (down) our children’s throats. Where does it end???”

Her comments earned her hours of attacks from parents at a subsequent meeting, with parents demanding she resign, the publication said.
