WaPo fact-checker gives KJP two Pinocchios for claim about Florida's 'dystopian' education law
Fox News
A Washington Post fact-check ruled on White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre’s claim that the Florida education law prevents gay teachers from showing family photos.
"Teachers in Florida have already faced the devastating consequences of the existing law. Under threat of having their licenses revoked, gay teachers have been forced to take down pictures of their spouses from their desks and censor their classroom materials. Censoring our classes is not how public education is supposed to work in a free country. Conservative politicians love to complain about the so-called cancel culture, all while threatening teachers with losing their jobs if they teach something that the MAGA extremists don’t agree with," Jean-Pierre said.
