Chinese Virus Playbook for Dem Politicians Based on Activist “Science” Group’s Extreme Projection
Democrats are currently gushing about certain projections coming from an activist organization called Covid Act Now, which is advising policymakers across the nation to take draconian steps to handle the current China virus crisis.
Judge Clay Jenkins, who implemented a shelter order for Dallas County on March 22, 2020, Tweeted on March 24, 2020, “Good morning,Texas. Here is an interactive map that prepared by science that shows their projections if we move as a state from your current order to the #StaySafeStayHome order I have implemented
@GovAbbott 430,000 deaths v 5000 #FlattenTheCurve covidactnow.org/state/TX”

However, journalist Jordan Schactel pointed out in a Twitter thread to remain skeptical about figures coming from this organization.
Quick thread: Fun facts about Covid Act Now, the org that is mobilizing press, politicians, & citizens to rally behind mass quarantine/lockdown: 1) They were founded by Dem activists. 1 of them, Igor Kofman, works full time to defeat Trump in 2020. Another is a Dem legislator.

Schactel believes that this organization is providing “junk data”:
2) Their models, which in retrospect have proven inaccurate, promised total healthcare system catastrophe if states did not enact immediate draconian measures to supposedly stop the spread of the virus. They are both providing junk data & pushing *their solutions* to the issue.

The journalist also mentions how lockdowns are no silver bullet to this crisis.
3) Important to note that lockdown has no consensus in the scientific community. In fact, exhaustive studies, both in US institutions and globally, have shown that quarantine/lockdown has never worked to stave off pandemics. So why is this org pushing Econ & societal lockdown?

Additionally, Schactel calls attention to the Imperial College projection that is now receiving “heavy scrutiny” from the scientific community:
4) Their models come 100% from Imperial College UK projection that is coming under *heavy* scrutiny from scientific community. IC UK produced the famed doomsday scenario that guaranteed 2MM dead Americans. The man behind the projections is refusing to make his code public.

The journalist then concluded by telling his followers to go on Google and do their own research:
5) Do a Google News search for “Covid Act Now” and u will find an endless stream of publications, both local & national, referencing the projections on the website. Let’s stop to the spread of fear mongering outfits w/ bad data & questionable motives like CovidActNow /End.

In times of such hysteria, it serves to do independent research and take anything coming from the mainstream media with a grain of salt. It’s likely biased and purposely slanted to attack President Donald Trump.

Southern Baptist Convention Reverses Course on Name Change After BLP Reporting
They say they’re not changing their name.
The Southern Baptist Convention has sought to dispel reporting from Big League Politics on the organization’s planned name change, arguing that the institution isn’t formally changing its name.
To correct multiple inaccurate reports, “We Are Great Commission Baptists” is the 2021 Annual Meeting THEME.
The GCB descriptor was approved in 2012 for churches to use if it would be helpful in their local context.
The Southern Baptist Convention remains our official name.

But a close look at the American Christian church’s plans relating to its name reveal that it’s played with the idea far more seriously than they’re making it seem.
Reports of a name change first emerged in a Washington Post article published on Tuesday. SBC President JD Greear told the Post that “hundreds of churches” affiliated with the denomination had “committed” to using the phrase “Great Commission Baptist” as an alternative to the denomination’s longtime moniker. The change would come as Greear touts his support of the Black Lives Matter, although he’s been careful in pointing out he doesn’t support any formal organization related to the movement. Greear also is renaming the church he personally pastors with the term.
The SBC’s 2021 convention will also organize under the motto of “We Are Great Commission Baptists.” Sounds a lot like a name change, even if the SBC’s leadership is steadfastly maintaining it isn’t.
The name ‘Great Commission Baptist’ is theologically sound in the Christian religion, but it’s somewhat questionable that the organization’s leader appears to be emphasizing it at a moment in which political correctness is making its entryism into many Christian churches and organizations.
It seems as if the organization’s figurehead is keen to present himself as a liberal-style suburban Evangelical to the Washington Post, but he changed his tune quite quickly when the rank and file membership of Southern Baptist churches learned that he was promoting the idea of a name change.
