Believer in and supporter of true freedom of all, not of a few to dominate others. I support the rights of women, LGBTIQA+ folx, religions including atheists/agnostics and all marginalized minorities - or majorities politically marginalized.

A few reminders about the SCOTUS immunity decision for Presidents:
It does not provide immunity for prior crimes.
It does not provide immunity to the President's cabinet.
Similar to Roe v. Wade, it can be overturned in the future.

A very dangerous, subversive lie repeated so often by White Christian Nationalists. No, we are NOT and never have been a "Christian Nation". We've always been a nation of widely diverse religious beliefs and non-belief.
