There’s a way to wish your fellow Americans a joyous and blessed holiday without it coming off as a defiant threat. The Trump administration Christianists on social media sure aren’t doing that — which is probably the point.
Trump officials and agencies went full Christian Nationalist on Christmas Day. It's another reminder of how much this administration hates the First Amendment.

It was also after years of quack eugenics going mainstream that lead to this.
Hitler claims our eugenics 'scientists' inspired his genocide of the Jews.
It's just like today's anti-vaxx BS.

In 1941, as the U.S. prepared for WWII, the American Red Cross launched a national blood program for the military. What most people don’t know: the program initially banned Black Americans from donating at all. This was Jim Crow in a lab coat. (cont)

Good Blood, Bad Policy: The Red Cross and Jim Crow
A 1940s Red Cross rule, which racially segregated blood, propped up notions of racial difference and Black inferiority.

During World War II, the Red Cross refused to accept blood from black donors
In December 1941, a few days after the bombing of Pearl Harbor and America’s entry into World War II, a Detroit mother named Sylvia Tucker visited her local Red Cross donor center to give blood.

Putin: The US is interested in using the Zaporizhia Nuclear Power Plant for cryptocurrency mining.
Per Kremlin, Russia is negotiating joint management of the station with US WITHOUT Ukraine's participation, with the option to then sell electricity to Ukraine.
Zaporizhzhia is Ukraine.

Trump: "Russia wants to see Ukraine succeed. It sounds a little strange but President Putin was very generous in his feeling toward Ukraine succeeding, including supplying energy, electricity and other things at very low prices."

It's all downstream of the idea that Republicans are the natural rulers of this country. Their policies are a force of nature, and if the levees fail it's not the hurricane's fault.
This is exactly the mindset Rs would like us to have. A bunch of nominal leftists don't realize they're being played.

“At least Santos had the Courage, Conviction, and Intelligence to ALWAYS VOTE REPUBLICAN!”
