Contrary to our Lt Gov's (R-IN) belief that religion should be intertwined with politics, perhaps separation of the two is exactly what's needed?

I really detest this era where I'm forced to agree with Rand Paul. Of course, Sen Paul could've prevented this by voting for impeachment or not confirming Hegseth.
