If you think the ‘Christian Nationalist’ form of sharia law can NEVER happen here, check out the answers these tRump judicial nominees are giving in their Senate confirmation hearings. This sh!t is the total opposite of Freedom of or from religion.
That entire exchange was astonishing! Here's what I just published about this morning's hearing. nominationnotes.substack.com/p/judicial-n...
Judicial Nominee Tells Republican Senator: “I Believe Every Word of the Bible”
It was a jaw-dropping exchange. And: Every nominee refused to say who won the 2020 election or comment on January 6.

Instead of responding only with thoughts and prayers, Australia will respond with laws and regulations. Because, unlike the United States, it values the lives of its citizens over any sick adulation of firearms.

Hegseth and his flunky mouthpiece hopes there are people stupid enough to believe this. Which essentially means the MAGA base will buy it and nobody else.

Just remember...there was absolutely nothing normal about the United States Deputy Attorney General, Todd Blanche, meeting with Ghislaine Maxwell. Nothing. Not by protocol. Not by precedent. Not by any stretch of the imagination.

Attended a Hands Off rally/protest in Wilmington Ohio this morning in bright red Clinton County. People showed up from Highland, Brown, Adams, and Warren Counties. Close to 200 people stood in breezy, rainy weather waving at passing traffic, holding signs, and building a community of informed voters
