This is obviously a lie. There has not been one proposed law that would ban anyone from teaching this Douglass speech. The fact that this person would lie about what is actually happening like this doesn't exactly inspire trust in their fitness to teach anyone about anything.
So @saribethrose tried to respond to a factual assertion with an opinion piece also lying about what is happening & what people are concerned about, then she blocked me. Again, if these people can't be trusted to discuss issues honestly, they can't be trusted to teach your kids.
People are objecting to neoracist propaganda being taught to kids.

Left, knowing they can't defend the substance of those ideas to the public/parents, has reacted by 1) arguing we aren't defining that propaganda correctly (CRT) 2) lying about what is being objected to
Now we can argue about what to do about those objections (bans etc), but that requires an honest discussion about the substance. Whether you call it CRT is purely semantics and no one is proposing banning discussions of slavery or the history of racism.
Just to emphasize how dishonest the original tweet claiming there is an attempted ban on teaching Douglass is, here is the Texas bill enrolled:

Notice anything about documents listed as essential parts of the curriculum?

Any comment, @saribethrose?

@saribethrose "They are trying to whitewash history by banning us from teaching Frederick Douglass" (thousands of likes)

Actually law: It's essential that you teach kids about the writings of Frederick Douglass.
Almost funny the extent to which these people rely on lying and silencing opponents. After they got called out for lying, they blocked me. Then Twitchy did a story on the exchange (link below) so they started calling for a boycott of their advertisers.

Another block and reply hoping I won't notice. Also, notice how casually they accuse people they disagree with of being white supremacists (in this case a Jew that has been extensively targeted by the alt-right). They literally don't know how to debate substance.

My God with these people. I called her out for a lie and then she blocked and proceeded to smear me behind a block (full thread below)

Now her friends are jumping in trying to get me banned for it.

This tactic is so despicable. They try to silence anyone who calls them out or confronts them about their dishonesty.

@DebraMessing actually retweeted that tweet lying about me because they are used to being able to completely silence any criticism.
I was going to let this go, but enough is enough. Now they are actively starting a harassment campaign targeting me.

Please report this tweet to @TwitterSupport for his attempted harassment:

This did not go the way Joy Reid thought it was going to go. She doesn’t know how to debate substance so instead she does declares conclusions and gets frustrated when Rufo doesn’t just accept them as factual.
Notice that aside from just trying to yell over Rufo she doesn’t engage in the actual substance of the topic, her whole argument is over whether the things Rufo and others are (rightly) objecting to are technically defined as CRT. But that’s just definitional, not substantive.
Let’s say we concede this silly point Reid and others are focused on that the neoracist and intersectional propaganda being normalized and increasingly taught in schools isn’t technically CRT. Now what?

How does that change the debate over whether it should be forced on kids?

This is from the Washington Post's homepage right now. A 5 minute video propagating ignorant neoracist nonsense. It's really astonishing the extent to which this stuff is becoming mainstream and normalized, especially by the press.
This is what the current education fight is really about, but people are intentionally pretending not to understand that. The same activists mainstreaming this stuff in the press are also trying to insert it into education. Trying to frame every subject around race.
These views are legitimately harmful and backwards. They shouldn't be normalized and they certainly should not be forced on young kids via public education that is funded by taxpayers. Parents have every right to be concerned and want to step in.

Incredible.

Iranian elections only consist of hardliners because the regime limits who is allowed to run. That has been true since 79.

Not everything is about Trump.
The article is even worse than the headline. It's full of misinformation meant to deflect blame away from the regime for their behavior by pretending they were moderating before Trump. This propaganda isn't even an opinion piece, It's published with a byline of "CNN staff".
The whole article is premised on the idea that moderates actually enjoyed substantial prominence in Iran before Trump withdrew from the Iranian nuclear deal, which will come as a shock to anyone who knows anything about Iran's actions at the time.

These tweets were back to back when I did a search on this topic. As always with such incidents, responsible people should wait for the facts.
CBS local news is reporting that the driver is telling police it was an accident where his foot got stuck, but a bunch of other outlets are citing @DeanTrantalis claiming it was a targeted terrorist attack.

Possible, but irresponsible to speculate unless he has more info.
@DeanTrantalis Now people with large platforms are amplifying claims that this was an attack targeting DWS.

Maybe that's accurate, but seems we need more info first.

Anyways, praying for those injured and the family of the person who died.

This is an important video covering how CJ Werleman uses made up claims to try to promote hatred against Jews and the Jewish state.
If you want to understand how these antiSemitic blood libels get spread on social media, this is a great example. CJ took a made up claim from 2014 and pretended it was real and current; now it has spread to hundreds of thousands of people who believe it.
And yet it has to be exposed by a small Jewish group because the disinformation reporters at mainstream outlets that spend their time exclusively on the extremists and conspiracies on the right are nowhere to be found.
