New York Times falsely smears DOJ religious liberty training as bigoted

In an article covering the recent training the Department of Justice held for its attorneys on religious liberty issues, the New York Times claimed with a blaring headline that the event spurned “concern among lawyers” because the workshops supposedly taught ways to “blunt civil rights protections for gay and transgender people.” This liberal spin on the topic chooses to paint the department as bigoted and discriminatory and overlooks the progress it’s made to bolster religious liberty protections. It’s also a blatant attempt to diminish the importance of religious liberty and mislead the public.

Per usual, the newspaper embellishes its thesis with thin evidence to support it.
