I was troop leader for GSUSA, and you called it. The organization is very protective of its image, in order to be open to kids from ALL cultures. The rules regarding political activities under the Girl Scouts banner are clearly stated, and if there are any questions or requests for an exception, the staff is always willing to help.
This troop could have simply cleared the plan in advance, or participated in political, humanitarian fundraisers without involving the organization. The fact that the leader decided to break the rules, take offense, disband, and publicly infer that the Girl Scouts values are questionable says a lot about who has what agenda.
I just read HB 269.
There’s a big list of hallelujah shit for Utah schools. IN GOD WE TRUST must be displayed prominently. Selecting excerpts (cherry picking for god) from the Magna Carta, the Ten Commandments, the Mayflower Compact, the pledge of allegiance, etc and displaying or distributing copies of these excerpts in public schools is an acceptable part of the curriculum. This indoctrination shall not be censored due to religious or cultural beliefs.
To answer your question, no, the 10 C’s is just a tiny piece of the dismantling of free thought. The “non-profit” church now demands to have carte blanche influence on all kids in public schools.
“Other well-known international food companies such as Nestle have also continued their operations in Russia. Nestle was added to Ukraine’s list of “international sponsors of war” in November 2023.”
Of course Nestle is there.
This $44m allocation is from the June 2023 pledge, and is for “spare parts, weapons stations, avionics, and ammunition”. Oh, there’s also part of that 2023 package that provides training to pilots, valued at fifteen million dollars, can I get an Amen!
It’s better than what the USA is doing, but it’s still just re-announcing support that was pledged 7 months ago.
I was talking to this old man from South Dakota last week. He stated “we’re being invaded because our president won’t do anything.”
When I explained that a President can’t run around making laws - Congress is supposed to make the laws, but they haven’t, he snapped “Well, he should MAKE them!”
Isn’t it frightening that adults believe a POTUS is directly and personally responsible for state and local decisions? Like he has the authority to break any law and force all elected officials in the USA to bow to his tyrannical will? And that when he doesn’t do this, everything is his fault, so he shouldn’t be re-elected?
Isn’t that terrifyingly absurd to you?
This crisis is caused by every adult Texan who didn’t vote against - or who voted for - Governor Greg the sadistic psychopath Abbott, who proudly values the protection of toxic waste more than human life.
The state of Illinois should place these 13,200 people in hotels with complimentary room service, and bill it ALL to the great state of Texas. I’m sure those taxpaying patriots are happy to put their money where their vote is.
I’m disgusted that the President has to stop to ask for support against Russian Invasion! The entire world should be begging Ukraine to accept limitless aid while so many Ukrainian people lose EVERYTHING as they hold back the global threat that’s worried nations for decades.
A federal judge has paused the lawsuit against Meade and Franklin County until after the criminal case. The officer had argued that simultaneously defending himself in both cases would put him in a no-win situation.
It seems a “no-win situation” is being Black while bringing sandwiches to Grandma’s house.
Waiting for Russia to claim it was nose-to-tail full of Ukrainian prisoners of war.
