Unless you “extemporized” an awful lot, I cannot imagine how THIS talk could have been so mistakenly interpreted.

I’m sorry the moderator didn’t ask you a slightly different version of the termination of parental rights question, viz what might be your position on government-provided counsel in cases where the court seeks to terminate parental rights?

I enjoyed your prepared remarks – sorry I missed the talk. Keep up the good
work.

the solution is to stop Child Protective Services

The solution to many things is to stop CPS – they are at least as bad as the problems they are supposed to fix.
