So basically, only Christians people will be allowed to work for the government? If you have a Bible thumping co-worker shoving Republican Jesus down your throat everyday, and tell them to back off, you’re fired? MAGA Christians will weaponize this on their LGBTQ co-workers and whoever they hate…
The Trump admin has ordered State Department employees to report on any instances of coworkers displaying “anti-Christian bias” as part of its effort to implement a sweeping new EO on supporting employees of Christian faith working in the federal government. www.politico.com/news/2025/04...
State tells employees to report on one another for ‘anti-Christian bias’
“It’s very ‘Handmaid’s Tale’-esque,” one official said.

Trump: "One thing I learned about the coal miners -- that's what they want to do. You could give them a penthouse on 5th Avenue and a different kind of a job and they'd be unhappy. They want to mine coal. She was gonna put them in a high tech industry where you make little cell phones and things."

Trump thinks he's a king above the law. Last night, a federal judge ordered him to stop deportations under his outrageous use of the Alien Enemies Act—but he did it anyway. Now, Venezuelans are being held in Bukele’s El Salvador mega-prison for at least a year.
