Libs lie. Always lie!-----Tennessee town bans “indecent exposure, public indecency, lewd behavior, nudity or sexual conduct.” Gavin Newsom calls this a ban on being gay.

Tennessee town bans “indecent exposure, public indecency, lewd behavior, nudity or sexual conduct.” Gavin Newsom calls this a ban on being gay. - Harris Rigby

"According to the world's most reliable news source, Gavin Newsom, the city of Murfreesboro has BANNED being gay in public!...

• The lie-Murfreesboro passed an ordinance in June banning "indecent behavior," including "indecent exposure, public indecency, lewd behavior, nudity or sexual conduct." As journalist Erin Reed first reported, this ordinance specifically mentions Section 21-72 of the city code. The city code states that sexual conduct includes homosexuality.

• The truth-The term "homosexuality" stopped being part of a city code prohibiting inappropriate "sexual conduct," the Murfreesboro City Council decided recently...The council unanimously voted to eliminate the term, "homosexuality," from the code's definition prohibiting inappropriate sexual conduct.

Yeah, Newsom is sharing straight-up fake news...

NASA GISS: NASA News & Feature Releases: NASA Study Finds Increasing Solar Trend That Can Change Climate - Mar. 20, 2003

"Since the late 1970s, the amount of solar radiation the sun emits, during times of quiet sunspot activity, has increased by nearly .05 percent per decade, according to a NASA funded study.

• "This trend is important because, if sustained over many decades, it could cause significant climate change," said Richard Willson, a researcher affiliated with NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies and Columbia University's Earth Institute, New York...

"Historical records of solar activity indicate that solar radiation has been increasing since the late 19th century. 

If a trend, comparable to the one found in this study, persisted throughout the 20th century, it would have provided a significant component of the global warming the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reports to have occurred over the past 100 years," he said...

Employers are fed up with college 'waste,' opt for skilled blue-collar workers instead

"Employers don't value college degrees as much as originally thought, recent survey data shows, and the disdain is behind a restored appreciation for blue-collar job-seekers that bring skill and experience over education...

• An additional 24.4% responded with "somewhat no" while the remaining 8.7% responded either "somewhat yes," "strongly yes," or "other."...

The Inside Story of How Palestinians Took Over the World

The Inside Story of How Palestinians Took Over the World - Gary Wexler

"The brilliant Palestinian plan to capture the pliable minds of American college students was laid out in front of me 25 years ago, during a very sinister business meeting in Israel.
It was around the time of the Oslo Accords. 

I had been hired by the Ford Foundation to create a marketing institute for their grantees in the country. Ford was funding the operations of both Jewish and Arab organizations within the Israeli green line, in an effort to help build a vibrant liberal civil society...

• When we interviewed the Jewish organizations, the atmosphere was almost giddy with hope, possibility and belief in Shimon Peres’s new Middle East. Each organization we interviewed talked excitedly about peace and co-existence, a flourishing economy among both the Jews and the Palestinians, collaborative projects and interchanges.
• But when we interviewed the Arab organizations, the word “peace” never passed their lips. They spoke of independence, dignity, self-rule, a state. One person even told me she would never use the word “du-kiyum” (co-existence). “There is no such thing as co-existence,” she stressed...

One More Gone Woke: Girl Scouts Stick With BLM, Will Train to 'Decenter' Whiteness - By Alex Parker 

"...In case you're unfamiliar, "antiracism" isn't the mere absence of prejudice. 

• Rather, it identifies people as oppressors or victims -- the former category being congenitally Caucasian. 

UCLA Law Professor Kimberlé Crenshaw puts it this way:

Antiracism is the active dismantling of systems, privileges, and everyday practices that reinforce and normalize the contemporary dimensions of white dominance. This, of course, also involves a critical understanding of the history of whiteness in America.

...its webpage on "Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Racial Justice":

Our commitment to antiracism:

Girl Scouts of the USA is working to become an antiracist organization...

Said pledge includes the endorsement of an openly Marxist, anti-nuclear family federation:

[W]e know that Black Lives Matter. We commit to doing all we can...to help create the change in our communities that is long overdue.

GirlScouts.org claims "tolerance isn't working" -- it "simply isn't good enough." What is? The answer might be found in an upcoming series. 

The Daily Wire reports the Scouts are holding a four-part DEI Racial Equity seminar. Courtesy of woke workshop wonder The Equity Paradigm, session titles are as follows:

• Foundations in Racial Equity (December)
• Foundations in Internalized Racism (January)
• Understanding and Decentering White Supremacy Culture (February)

Getting rich from your tax $$ as they stifle YOUR free speech!-----Meet NewsGuard: A Censorship Tool Billed As An Arbiter Of Truth

Meet NewsGuard: A Censorship Tool Billed As An Arbiter Of Truth - BY: LEE FANG

• With government contracts and corporate backers, NewsGuard seeks to monetize the work of reshaping the internet.

"...In an exchange that came to light in the “Twitter Files” revelations about media censorship, Crovitz, former publisher of the Wall Street Journal, touted his product, NewsGuard, as a “Vaccine Against Misinformation.” 

His written pitch highlighted a “separate product” — beyond an extension already on the Microsoft Edge browser — “for internal use by content-moderation teams.” 

Crovitz promised an out-of-the-box tool that would use artificial intelligence powered by NewsGuard algorithms to rapidly screen content based on hashtags and search terms the company associated with dangerous content.

• How would the company determine the truth? 
• For issues such as Covid-19, NewsGuard would steer readers to official government sources only, like the federal Centers for Disease Control...
