I identify as a progressive Christian—mostly to stand in solidarity with others who have experienced harm in conservative Christian spheres. But my loyalty isn’t to the left of center, it’s to Christ who is above all the labels. If you’re conservative and kind, we can be friends.

Best case: The President of the United States knew about a pedophilia ring and did nothing to stop it.
Medium case: He also used his office to protect the perpetrators.
Worst case: Because he was one of the perpetrators.

So to be sure I understand the MAGA position on this:
•Saying Happy Holidays = War on Christmas
•No teacher led prayer in public schools = War on Jesus
•No 10 Commandments on Courthouse = War on Christianity
•Shooting Christian Pastor in the head = Not Crossing The Line
Got it.

Q: We've seen images out of Chicago of federal agents shooting faith leaders with pepper balls and arresting journalists. Where's the limit for you on what's acceptable conduct by federal agents?

On the one hand, Talarico (a Presbyterian seminarian) using a religious framing as part of his Senate campaign announcement isn't that surprising (see next skeet).
On the other hand, this is some *like whoa* religious left messaging here, and may well have some real traction in Texas in particular.

"Harvard can't use race as a factor in admissions, but ICE can use race as a factor in detentions" is a retrenchment essentially to a pre-Civil War understanding of the Constitution. It's vanishingly few steps removed from "Latinos have no rights which the white man is bound to respect."
