From "Texas launches plan to open Turning Point USA chapters in every high school/Republican officials in Oklahoma and Florida have also launched plans to expand the presence of the conservative youth organization founded by Charlie Kirk" (Texas Tribune).
Naturally: "Petitions calling for the removal of the school chapters have also emerged, with some students and parents criticizing the national organization for what they describe as 'racist, homophobic, and sexist hate speech on college campuses across America.' The Southern Poverty Law Center, a civil rights group that tracks extremism, describes Turning Point as an organization with a strategy of sowing fear 'that white Christian supremacy is under attack by nefarious actors, including immigrants, the LGBTQ+ community and civil rights activists.'"
Painfully: "Disclosure: Southern Poverty Law Center has been a financial supporter of The Texas Tribune, a nonprofit, nonpartisan news organization... Financial supporters play no role in the Tribune’s journalism...."
How dishonest is "it would not be illegal" given Senate Bill 12?

SPLC a civil rights group...
Hahahahaha!
Kind of hard to call out dishonesty in a post that suggests SPLC is a civil rights group and the Texas Tribune is non-partisan. Maybe if we all pushed for a smaller government, this wouldn’t be a problem. I’m not going to die on the hill thinking SPLC or Texas Tribune want smaller government.
There has always been a gay club in school, called the drama club.
The government has been promoting degeneracy on behalf of Feminism for decades.
Perhaps the government should stop promoting degeneracy.
It would have been nice to have it promote nothing but leftists and Karens can't have that. If they can't henpeck men who make their coddled lives possible they will have nothing to do.

I believe that there are "progressive, left-leaning causes" beyond the LGBT+ ones.
Samesies! Talking about sexual parts and encouraging patriotic faith are exactly the same! Right?
Because splc has been the cancelers
..The Southern Poverty Law Center, a civil rights group that tracks extremism, describes Turning Point as an organization with a strategy of sowing fear..
which SURE SOUNDS Like something someone OWNED AND OPERATED by the Southern Poverty Law Center would say.
Special Peculiar Liberal Corporation
This is about separation of cult (e.g. progressive sects) and state. This is not about the transgender spectrum (e g. homosexual orientation), but about the transsocial spectrum including Diversity (e.g. racism, sexism, ageism, feminism), simulant conversion/corruption therapy, homosexual grooming, etc.
Texas tribune is the worst account for anything
Albinophobia? Abort the Rainbow symbol in human context, sequester the colored/divisive/exclusive rhetoric. Save the lions, lionesses, and their unPlanned cubs in gay pride parades.
Splc worships the Old Gods
It's hard to believe that the SPLC is still pointed to as your standard for All that is Good and Pure in the year of 2025. They've got a hideous track record of muckraking.
Texas, under Abbott, seems to be flailing around in all directions. Meanwhile, it's the number one home for the Muslim Brotherhood in America. After Dearborn, MI, that is. But, let's worry about the Gay community.
Splc put a target on charlie kirk literally thr definition of chutzpah
Conservative: pro-Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.
Liberal: divergent.
Progressive: monotonic.
These are the people that helped foster the hatred that got Charlie Kirk a**a**inated. They can straight up f**k off!
Gay is a joyful state of mind.
Pride is a parade of lions.
The transgender spectrum has been divided by the politically congruent ("=") into exclusive blocs under the Diversity umbrella, with their own banners and rhetoric targeting captive audiences, particularly children in schools, scouts, churches, etc.
SPLC is in stage 4 Burge: wear its carcass as a skin suit, while demanding respect
If enough TPUSA's are operating on Texas University and school campuses maybe they can pray for Jesus to make the governor walk again. I imagine it happening like the final scene in Dr Strangelove
Splc and cair the wondertwins of progdom

“SPLC a civil rights group...”
Yes, the SPLC is a civil rights group. That they are tells you what the term “civil rights group” actually means these days.
Yes Sir, that's what I want ! I want the government to focus their limited energies on getting Turning Point into the high schools ! Yes, Sir ! Never mind about all those pesky issues you were elected on....... You know, health care, the economy, so forth.
Mid terms are going to be a big disappointment if this is the level of game the Republicans are bringing.

That's how I interpreted Abbott's comment.
Southern Poverty Law Center is a lie-filled corrupt terrorist organization - that spreads lies and HATE.
I tried to find out what Senate Bill 12 actually says. The Tribune links don't tell you. As far as I can tell, it requires parental consent for LGBTQ clubs and allows parental opt-out for LGBTQ "instruction." No banning.
So nothing dishonest about "...it would not be illegal..." Presumably he was responding to a question claiming that Bill 12 makes such clubs illegal.
The ACLU - thru litigation - is attempting to force a School in Elizabeth, CO - to keep pornography and other sexually explicit material on the shelves in the public School library.
the leftwing media(D-soviet) of course lie and say it's evil conservatives attempting to burn books.
I tried to find out what Senate Bill 12 actually says.
Just like the "Don't Say Gay" bill that they never actually quoted. When the Lying Left (BIRP) Media want you to know facts they give you the facts. When they withhold the facts from a story it is because they are writing propaganda not NEWS.
But only every time, to quote the long lost Drago.
Just apply that standard to any Trump story. If they don't produce the quote or the facts, be wary. Shit, just be wary anyway. They are such lying sons of bitches.
MJB--agreed. And the search engines steer you to the MSM spin and away from the facts.
I'm all for anything that keeps the grooming gangs out of public schools.
100% for Abbott's initiative.. I live here in Texas and I know what is going on. Thank God we are not slouching toward being another California.
Senate Bill 12
"The Southern Poverty Law Center, a civil rights group that tracks extremism ....".
I'm not sure "tracks" is the right verb. It implies following, but where extremism is concerned, the SPLC grift is way out in front.
Aggie: "Never mind about all those pesky issues you were elected on....... You know, health care, the economy, so forth."
Gotta play the long game too. Push back against the long march through the institutions.
Plus without Abbott's Illegal Bus Lines, we might never have gotten enough attention on that issue, which might have meant no Trump 47. So I tend to respect his judgment. CC, JSM
There was once a "Reagan Project" that aimed at naming something in every state after Ronald Reagan. It's better that these things develop organically, rather than as a result of organization and lobbying.
Not to infer that TP USA is a grooming gang. A little GOD never hurt anybody. Besides. They're not pushing it down your throat like LGBTQ.
The SPLC has long been a leftist-oriented activist group. It is in no way unbiased.
Public schools are “progressive, left-leaning causes.” No initiative needed.
This makes me a little happier every day that i do not live in Texas. Get rid of Abbott and Paxton and maybe the state will be marginally livable. Get a good person in like Talacico or Crockett and people may even become "normal" instead of "christians" who are not christian at all, like the peeps at TPUSA
A little GOD never hurt anybody.
Oh yeah? Tell that to Joan of Arc or the millions, of people killed for belonging to the wrong denomination. Heck, the Thirty Years War wiped out almost half the population of Germany.
After years of filling kids' heads with lazy left wing bullshit we have decided that the solution is to instead fill kids' heads with lazy right wing bullshit. Derp.
Why look so hard into history Freder? Don't the millions killed every year in service to Allah count as killings for God?
A little G_d never hurt anybody: Allahu Akbar
I mean it is difficult to find a Christian corollary* to the typical muslim killer shouting "allahu akbar" before doing his god's work.
Just post one example for comparison. I'll wait. It must be easy since you bitch about christians so much.
*Outside the Crusades, that is, the ONE time that we acted like them in recorded history.
victoria thinks Crockett is a “good person”, lol.
Okay then…🤪🍾
$5,000 total to TT from SPLC per TT's website.
Cheap date.

This makes me a little happier every day that i do not live in Texas.
I suspect the Texans are pretty happy about it, too.
Mike (MJB Wolf): The Crusades are the (more than one time) Christians got militarily expeditionary against Muslims, but Western Civ was built on defense against Muslim imperialism, from the Gates of Vienna to Lepanto to Tours to Roncevaux Pass and on and on. This history of defense could roll all the way forward to the little girl with the knives recently in Britain.
