The manager of Chelsea is not happy with the incident at the Florida school!
Just weeks after calling out George Santos for defrauding a veteran and denying his sexuality, the comedian has come out for certain educational institutions removing books related to LGBTQ+ subjects. He drove his point home in a clip he posted on social media with a young child whose relationship to him is unknown.
Chelsea Operators Partner With Students To Bring This Message To Florida
In addition to making people laugh, Handler has made a name for herself as an advocate for the LGBTQ+ community. The “Chelsea Lately” alum reminded her fans of her stance when she uploaded a video showing her in ski gear in a recent snowy environment.
The clip begins with the comedian and his assistant — Charley — introducing themselves before delving into what prompted the recording — a book being banned from the school library. In the words of the 48-year-old:
“Recently in Florida, because, of course, it’s Florida, public schools and libraries were forced to purge their bookshelves of any literature that contained even a hint of LGBTQ characters or romance. Teachers are forced to hide these books, or they can face criminal charges from the state.”

After Charley pointed out that the teachers were “rough enough,” Handler informed Florida that there were “a lot of other things to clean up” in the state, including “alligators, adults going to Disney World alone and pythons.”
The young student then emphasized the need to “create a school environment that is inclusive and ready to welcome children with open arms,” before Handler quipped:
“What will be banned next? A book that shows women having fun? Let’s show our support and solidarity to our teachers who have to continue to be patient with your mischievous children. And now the government wants to put them in jail for telling their children to read ‘Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.'”
The 2009 Ally for Equality Award winner finished, “And if Willy Wonka isn’t an iconic gay character, I don’t know who is.” As expected, the candid dialogue drew support from Handler’s fans as they took to the comments section to share their agreeable views.
Leading the charge was a former teacher who thanked the comedian before stating, “We need MORE convo about what’s going on in education. The Lorax is also a forbidden book. WTAF?!”
“Thank you Charlie, for your smart and insightful public service announcement! Kids should read everything!” a second person commented, while a third asked, “Ugh it’s 2023. Why do people still think like this? Can’t we accept everyone no matter what they believe or who they love?!”
Another teacher revealed that they are “right now fighting this battle” in Maine, adding, “We’ve also been called babysitters, pedophiles and others. We’ve lost excellent teachers to hostility in our community as well.” A fifth commenter claims:
“You’re great on your own but so much better with Charlie (sp?) by your side. Florida should clear Desantis instead.
In case you missed it, Governor Ron DeSantis has been on the warpath with the LGBTQ+ community since last year when he signed a controversial bill into law that prevents schools in Florida from teaching students about issues of gender and sexual orientation. The bill stipulates that any teacher caught violating the prescribed conditions will be subject to legal action.
Although it was officially called the “Parental Rights in Education” bill, it was renamed the “Don’t Say Gay” bill by its critics in response to the situation, according to UK is independent.

The Blast reports that Handler didn’t splurge when she celebrated her 48th birthday last month. According to the report, the “Girls Behaving Badly” star took the festivities to the snowy mountains, where she continued a three-year tradition of skiing in scantily clad clothes.
For this year’s event, which she showed off on Instagram, she wore a strapless bikini top made from a mash-up of Canadian and United States flags, plain black bottoms and a matching beanie. Despite the chilly location, Handler looked unfazed as he skated recklessly in the snow before enjoying a beer and a smoke.
Set to Eminem’s 2002 song, “Without Me,” the defiant post was captioned, “48! Salud!” The video has been played over four million times and has received nearly 490k likes and 17.6k comments.
A perusal of the comments section revealed that Handler’s fans and fellow celebs were living through it as Sophia Bush exclaimed, “I’m obsessed with yooou! ?.”
