    So with these Tweets you are just reinforcing what I have stated. Basically none of these text books were banned because they contained CRT material. These text books were removed because they used Common Core to teach math -- an educational method which is no longer being supported in Florida.

    Of course this did not stop DeSantis and his cronies to strongly promoting that these math books were removed due to having CRT information. Yet when NPR simply states the same thing as DeSantis & his cronies -- suddenly according to "Tony Kinnett" on Twitter, NPR is no longer worthy of funding.

    So it turns out the supposed "worksheet" posted by Christina Pushaw is completely fake and not the original. This should not surprise anyone considering all the false information she previously has pushed.


    Florida’s complaint about CRT in math books comes from faked equation problems

    Your article doesn't say it was faked. The headline (meant for click grabbing) claims it was, but then you see this in the article:

    When DeSantis' press secretary Christina Pushaw posted screen captures of objectionable math problems, it turned people to search which math book would use such a math problem, only to discover that the problem wasn't in a book. It was part of an internet worksheet and the company that posted it online had it removed.

    And Pushaw said it was from an online source, which I mentioned in the post.

    And if it were fake, why would the school apologize? Right, they wouldn't. Maybe that's why "rawstory" which is your favorite site as of late, is rated so poorly on Mediabiasfactcheck

    The article shows the original worksheet that was posted as educational material for teachers to use, and it this is very different than the worksheet in Christina Pushaw's Tweet. She is using a Tweet with an altered worksheet to fit DeSantis' political narrative.

    Your articles says it was edited. So I'm not surprised it now shows as different.

  9. Florida is so anti-business. First Disney, now Twitter.

    He can say it all he wants, but there's no way for DeSantis or the State of Florida to hold Twitter accountable for anything.

    As for Disney's tax breaks - removing them is a good idea. Aren't you liberals for taking tax breaks away from large corporations? Or is it only when they aren't going against republicans?
