Tony Perkins leads the Family Research Council (FRC), which says “abortion is never medically necessary to protect the life of a mother,” supports Alabama’s anti-IVF ruling, & seems to oppose birth control. He’s still bullying Heidi Przybyla 🌺 for calling out Christian extremism. 1/

1/Whether there's actual bias in play at SCOTUS, the public has lost confidence because of recent ethics debacles. The Court doesn't have an army to enforce its decisions. It has to hold itself to the highest standards so the public has confidence when it decides the hard cases &…

Biden: Since I took office, FEMA has provided Texas alone over $13 billion in three years in disaster relief. When disasters strike, there's no red state or blue state where I come from.. just communities and families looking for help so we're standing with everyone

Trump's former COS (young earth creationist Mark Meadows) burned documents > meeting w/ Scott Perry in the runup to Jan 6 (per a sworn witness). A suit has been filed to remove Perry from the ballot. Perry now wants the House to cancel Biden's State of the Union address. 1/

granisnark 5/ Here, Roger Stone says that, although he was baptized Catholic and still considers himself Catholic, he’s now a “parishioner” of the Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church in Fort Lauderdale (the church designated as an anti-LGBTQ+ hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center).

Roger Stone’s Florida church, Coral Ridge Ministries, sued the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) after SPLC called it an anti-LGBTQ+ hate group. Coral Ridge asked SCOTUS to review their case, but only one justice felt they shld do so: Clarence Thomas. 1/ thenewcivilrightsmovement.com/2022/06/claren…

'Paul Weyrich, the late religious conservative political activist & co-founder of the Heritage Foundation' & the Council 4 National Policy, a Christian Right umbrella, wrote that their theocratic agenda 'must be packaged,' i.e., masked, in 'non-religious language.' #ShadowNetwork

Meryl Streep was spot-on.

Steve Bannon has long wanted to “destroy the administrative state.”He’s also long courted Catholic extremists, like Heritage president Kevin Roberts who recently told him that Project 2025 is preparing the next POTUS to immediately start dismantling the administrative state. 1/

Do we want to live in the kind of world that will result if Ukraine loses? NO! So why not finally seize the $320 billion in frozen Russian reserves and use them to help Ukraine when Congress stupidly refuses? I’ve shown that the law NOW permits doing this
