Daily Wire reporter Luke Rosiak is working with Peter Schweizer, the #1 bestselling author of Red-Handed and Clinton Cash, for a major investigation of U.S. public schools, The Daily Wire can report.
Rosiak, who broke the story of the Loudoun County, Virginia bathroom rape, is a fellow with Schweizer’s Government Accountability Institute (GAI) in addition to his role as Daily Wire investigative reporter.
The arrangement between Rosiak and Schweizer brings together The Daily Wire — which has led the pack in revealing problems in K-12 schools — and GAI, one of the nation’s foremost investigative groups specializing in exposing special interests on both sides of the aisle. GAI exposed congressional insider trading, leading to a law called the STOCK Act, it brought the Clinton Foundation’s influence-peddling to the fore and discovered Hunter Biden’s overseas deals even before the 2020 election.
Schweizer’s most recent book is “Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win, which documents prominent Democrats’ and Republicans’ sweetheart deals with China.
The result of the two-year collaboration is Race to the Bottom: Uncovering the Secret Forces Destroying American Public Education, written by Rosiak with a foreword by Schweizer. Both “Red-Handed” and “Race to the Bottom” are published by HarperCollins.
“My work as an investigative journalist involves sifting our nation’s political class for evidence of corruption,” said Schweizer. “What I have seen over my decades of work is that corruption is most likely to fester where no one is looking. What Luke has found is that some of the same forms of deception, self-dealing, and corruption that I have seen in the halls of power are also occurring behind the friendly-seeming facades of the schools in your town. He identifies systemic rot in an area that is, somehow, simultaneously omnipresent and remarkably under-scrutinized.”
The project has been underway since late 2019, before the COVID-19 pandemic and before teachers’ unions engaged the public by shutting down schools. The shutdown, however, inadvertently exposed what has since become known as Critical Race Theory because online classes let parents see, for the first time, what their children were actually being taught in schools.
GAI’s decision to begin an investigation into K-12 schools years ago shows that it was ahead of the curve again.
“Luke Rosiak’s exhaustive work in this book shows that while it might have been parents’ first glimpse of such issues, they did not appear in K–12 schools overnight. Through the stories of local school systems in different parts of the country—from inner cities to wealthy suburbs and rural areas—Luke shows readers how, for years, local K–12 school systems have been captured by a variety of special interests whose allegiance is to anything but the ‘three Rs,’” Schweizer said.
Another GAI “fellow” is former Congressman Jason Chaffetz (R-UT), who authored “They Never Let a Crisis Go to Waste: The Truth About Disaster Liberalism,” a book about politicians’ use of COVID-19 to ram through unrelated agendas.
