I seem to remember that a major religion once splintered because of something very much like this.
GOP operatives Jacob Wohl and Jack Burkman, convicted election fraudsters, were paid $960,000 in the second quarter to secure a pardon for a former nursing-home operator who defrauded the government of $38 million. Trump pardoned the man, Joseph Schwartz, last month.

Even some of the president’s closest advisers have been surprised by a number of the recent series of pardons.

Now that Bari Weiss pulled a segment telling the truth about Trump's deportations to let Stephen Miller have his say (i.e. spread propaganda), it's a good time to check out our deep dive into Miller's real worldview and agenda, which doesn't pull any punches:

When we receive a subpoena, we must comply with it. If we violate federal law, we face stiff penalties. When it comes to Trump and his administration, the legacy media applies a different standard. It's not that they normalize Trump’s lawlessness; they have now started to celebrate it.

It WAS a redacting error. Abrego Garcia's attorneys filed a correx that now redacts the quote drawn from the sealed Dec. 3 court order which concluded that Associate DAG Aakash Singh had a “leading role in the government’s decision to prosecute” Abrego Garcia. www.courtlistener.com/docket/70476...

The significance: DOJ had insisted to the judge for weeks that acting USA Robert McGuire alone made the decision to indict Abrego Garcia, which should foreclose any inquiry into the role of Main Justice. But internal DOJ docs now show otherwise, the judge apparently found in the still-sealed order.

Gov. Walz is telling the truth. He should have been our VP.
Walz: "It's very clear that the entire federal government is weaponized against Minnesota. They're threatening us. And this is what happens when you have a floundering presidency and it's about those ballrooms. Now we're back on transgender folks."

Opinion | Racism among white Christians is higher than among the nonreligious. Here's why.
For most of American history, the light-skinned Jesus conjured up by white congregations demanded the preservation of inequality as part of the divine order.
