Three Things the Left Lied About — June 7, 2025
The nation’s best-known expert on lying, Pamela Meyer, has said that “Lying is a cooperative act… A lie has no power whatsoever by its mere utterance. Its power emerges when someone else agrees to believe the lie.”

The Left tells many lies, but truthtellers will never cooperate with their schemes. Instead, they must unite with one another, shedding light on the most important issues affecting the nation and world.
The first lie told by the Left this week involves a Texas bill (SB10) that mandates the display of the Ten Commandments in every classroom. The bill received strong support, with the Texas House voting 82-46 to approve, and the Senate voting 28-3. The bill, sponsored by Sen. Phil King (R-Weatherford), “requires every classroom to visibly display a poster that’s at least 16 by 20 inches featuring a specific version of the Ten Commandments.”
Though Democrat lawmakers sought to amend the bill to require other religious texts from Hinduism, Islam, and Buddhism, their efforts were not successful.
America and the Ten Commandments Have a Rich History
“Nothing is more deeply rooted in the fabric of our American tradition of education than the Ten Commandments. The very way we treat others in our society comes from the principles found in the Ten Commandments,” declared Texas Representative Candy Noble (R-Lucas), who helped sponsor the legislation in the Texas House. She added, “In these days of courtroom mayhem, it’s time to return to the truths, to the fabric of our educational system. Respect others. Don’t steal. Tell the truth. Don’t kill. Keep your word.”
Texas Senator Phil King explained, “The Ten Commandments are part of our Texas and American story. And indeed, as the image of Moses on the U.S. Supreme Court attests to that truth.”
The Left Says the Ten Commandments are Unconstitutional
The Left is not happy about God’s Law being displayed on the walls of public school classrooms. Vikki Goodwin, a Democrat from Austin, Texas, complained that the Ten Commandments trampled on freedom of religion.
State Representative Vincent Perez, a Democrat from El Paso, insisted that posting the Ten Commandments “risks promoting one religion over others, something our Constitution forbids.”
Award-winning journalist and host of The Sentinel Report, Alex Newman, clarifies, “Of course, neither the U.S. Constitution nor the Texas Constitution forbid the Ten Commandments. The commandments were not expelled from government schools until the 1980s. In reality, both constitutions were literally based on the Ten Commandments and the Bible.”
Newman adds, “As then-Harvard President Samuel Langdon explained to New Hampshire lawmakers in 1788 while encouraging them to ratify the U.S. Constitution, the document and the government it established are literally based on the Bible. This was common knowledge for centuries in America until a deliberate campaign to hide the truth.”
Leftist groups, such as the ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union), Americans United for Separation of Church and State, and the Freedom from Religion Foundation, have stated they will challenge the bill. But lawmakers who support it are not backing down. They now join other states that have passed similar laws, such as Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Louisiana.
In response to the passing of SB10, Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick wrote, “By placing the Ten Commandments in our public-school classrooms, we ensure our students receive the same foundational moral compass as our state and country’s forefathers.”
The Left wants Americans to believe that the Ten Commandments violate the religious freedoms of students when the truth is that our nation, courts, and schools were founded on their principles. The Declaration of Independence is a document that DECLARES that the Creator (God) gives mankind their inalienable rights. In effect, the religion of atheism and secularism is the biggest threat to religious freedom in America.
Hamas Spreads Dangerous Fake News
The second lie told by the Left this week involves a claim made by the Gaza Health Ministry that the Israeli military killed dozens of Palestinian civilians near an aid center on June 1, 2025. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) and the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) “have denied reports of Palestinian deaths from officials at the Gaza Health Ministry, a Hamas-run agency.”
In a statement on X, the IDF explained, “False reports have been spread in recent hours, including serious allegations against the IDF regarding fire toward Gazan residents in the area of the humanitarian aid distribution site in Gaza. Findings from an initial inquiry indicate that the IDF did not fire at civilians while they were near or within the humanitarian aid distribution site and that reports to this effect are false…the IDF calls on the media to be cautious with information published by the Hamas terrorist organization, as proven in many previous incidents.”
The Left Sides with Hamas
The Left-leaning CNN rolled with the Gaza Health Ministry’s version of the story, running an article titled, Dozens Shot Dead and Injured Near Gaza Aid Hub, Health Ministry and Doctors Say. The Palestinian officials allege that at least 31 Palestinians were killed and up to 170 were wounded near the aid distribution area in Rafah, but the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, which runs the aid site, insisted that “all aid was distributed today without incident. We have heard that these fake reports have been actively fomented by Hamas. They are untrue and fabricated.”
Videos released by the foundation show that the aid site was “uneventful on Sunday morning when the Israeli attack was said to have taken place.” No gunfire can be seen in the security footage.
Karys Rhea of the Epoch Times called the incident a “false blood libel about Israel killing Gazans.” She noted that antisemitic attacks are being fueled by propaganda that paints Israelis as savage murderers. On June 1, a deranged man screaming “Free Palestine” threw Molotov cocktails at people attending a peaceful outdoor event commemorating the Israeli hostages still in Gaza. In a crazed rage, the Palestinian activist identified as Mohamed Sabry Soliman, sprayed innocent participants with gasoline, yelling, “Death to Zionists!… They are killers! How many children you killed?” Inside a vehicle registered to the attacker, authorities found paperwork with the words “Israel, Palestine, and USAID,” according to federal authorities.
At least 12 people were injured in the attack, and “one woman was so severely burned that her hair was charred.” Others had “their pants burned off– skin melted.” One victim was an 88-year-old person who had fled Europe during the Holocaust.
On May 21, 2025, another antisemitic attack took the lives of two Israeli Embassy staff members, Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim. The young couple was shot and killed by a gunman who yelled “Free Palestine” and “wanted to kill Jews.”
The Left wants the world to believe that Israel is perpetrating violence and deliberately murdering Gazans when the truth is that Hamas uses the left-wing media as its mouthpiece. By planting lies in the minds of people, this terrorist organization that uses its own citizens as human shields creates a web of hate against Israelis and Jews around the globe. The truth is that Israel and Jews everywhere need our prayers. Antisemitism is a disease that is spreading because of targeted propaganda created by Hamas and those who do its bidding.
Sesame Street Celebrates Pride Month
The third lie told by the Left this week revolves around the once-beloved children’s show Sesame Street. On June 1, a message was posted to their X account featuring “colorful puppet arms linked together, symbolizing unity and support for the LGBTQ+ community” and included the caption, “On our street, everyone is welcome. Together, let’s build a world where every person and family feel loved and respected for who they are. Happy Pride Month!”
Leftists applauded the post, with one user writing, “Shoutout to Sesame Street for raising me to be empathetic and caring towards everyone.” Another user referred to Bert and Ernie as “gay icons.”
Backlash Over Woke Messaging is Fierce
Conservative voices were quick to jump into the conversation with one user stating, “This is grooming. This is criminal. This is perversion.” Michael Knowles from the Daily Wire commented, “Nothing to see here: just a publicly funded puppet show promoting weird sex stuff to your three-year-old.” Another post emphatically declared, “Leave the kids alone. Sickening.”
The truth is that more and more Americans are fed up with “pride” messaging that targets children and teens. While the Facebook version of the Sesame Street post garnered more positive comments, there was a barrage of negative reactions to their pride message on X.
In response to the Sesame Street post, one X user provided an AI Overview in the comments, which said, “Pride, considered the first and worst of the seven deadly sins, is an excessive love of oneself and a rejection of God’s will. It manifests as an inflated sense of self-importance, arrogance, and a refusal to recognize God’s grace and dependence on Him. Pride is seen as the root of other sins because it leads to a turning away from God’s will and a focus on one’s own desires.”
Truthfully, pride is a sin, but celebrating a sin is even worse. Shows like Sesame Street should focus their time and energy on the ABCs, 123s, and wholesome values. Instead, their programming has become a springboard for woke agendas that confuse innocent children.
Lord Jesus, there are so many lies, it’s hard to keep up with them all. We need your help in fighting this never-ending battle for truth. Use us as a mouthpiece for righteousness and truth in a world steeped in falsehood.
These are just a few of the lies told by the Left this week. How are you praying?

YHVH, the battle for truth continues! Thank You for raising up voices for truth in this quagmire of lies and deception. You foresaw this day, and warned us again and again in Your Word. John 8:44, John 16:13, John 17:17, Romans 1:25, II Thessalonians 2:10-13, etc. Forgive us, Lord, for allowing lies and deception to take root and grow in our own lives, in our homes, in the church, in our schools, in our nation. We are reaping the fruit, and it is destruction. Deliver us Oh, Lord from ourselves, as we choose to be sanctified by Your truth. John 17:17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy Word is truth. May it season and inform our speech in order to bring life!
Lord “Use us as a mouthpiece for righteousness and truth.”
