Remember: preachers and politicians telling you that "the separation of church and state doesn't exist" are lying to you because that separation is the one thing that prevents them from imposing their religion on you and your kids.
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth's senior adviser on religious issues, Ryan Higgins, has said the “Separation of Church and State does not exist," railed against “the satanic cult of LGBTQ,” criticized gay adoption as “buying babies,” told women that "No ‘career’ will ever give you the fulfillment you’re looking for that can only be found from being a mother,” and compared abortion to the Holocaust, posting it was like “saying Nazi concentration camps were ethnic end-of-life care.”
Sources say Higgins has played a role in shaping some of Hegseth's most incendiary remarks on faith and religion, and is now a key player in the newly announced Office of Religious Affairs at the Pentagon.

The average price of a gallon of gas nationwide is now a $1.29 higher than before the start of the Iran war. Despite voters' concerns, President Trump continues to tout how much money big oil companies are making because of it. Our opening tonight:

It should confuse everyone. It's why nobody takes MAGA Christian faith seriously. It's insane to pretend to care for migrants and then elect someone who has build an entire political empire on demonization and dehumanization of migrants. It makes your gospel look small and stupid

CBS deleted this post and reposted it admitting that their original one was misleading. And the misleading post from CBS was intentionally misleading, not an innocent mistake. CBS continues to lose credibility.

Elon Musk has spent more money on politics in the last 2 years than George Soros has spent in his entire lifetime.
Just a heads up: Religious freedom protects Muslims, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists and people of every other faith and the nonreligious.
Persecuting Christians is wrong. So is persecuting anyone else for their beliefs or lack thereof.
It’s religious freedom, not Christian freedom.
Religious freedom is a fundamental human right and must be protected both here at home and abroad.
Earlier this month, Pakistan’s Supreme Court upheld the conviction and death sentence of a Christian man accused of blasphemy against the Prophet Muhammad. This is one of many examples of the persecution Christians continue to face around the world simply for professing their faith in Jesus Christ.
On International Religious Freedom Day, we are reminded of our duty to be a voice for those suffering because of their faith and to forcefully advocate for governments to uphold their responsibility to protect innocent lives.
As conservative Christians continue pushing the boundaries of religious accommodations, it’s important that we atheists and humanists learn to assert those same rights.
Religious freedom isn’t just for believers.
An atheist requested a "religious accommodation" to refuse AI at work—and his university agreed.
David Durman says generative AI conflicts with his Humanist beliefs.
Kudos to @americnhumanist for making it happen!

As nationalist movements around the world reel from voter anger at their policies (or lack of them), they are all using the same playbook.
Reject results they don’t like and claim fraud.
Try to physically stop voters they don’t like from voting.
Resort to violence.
🗳️ A fight broke out inside a polling station in the Palestinian town of Tira in central Israel on Tuesday, after Arab Knesset member Ahmad Tibi confronted an Israeli settler trying to block Palestinian citizens of Israel from voting, the Palestinian newspaper Al-Quds reported. Video shared by Palestinian politician Mustafa Barghouti shows a tense confrontation inside the station.
🔸 Local sources told Al-Quds that armed settlers were present inside polling stations in Palestinian towns, posing as observers for far-right parties to intimidate voters. The legal rights group Adalah called for urgent action over shortages of Arabic-language ballots in several towns.
🔸 Israel's ruling Likud party also deployed paid teams outside polling stations in Palestinian towns to collect footage and testimony that could be used to challenge the results if Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's bloc appears headed for defeat, Haaretz reported.
🔸The operation, estimated to cost millions of shekels, runs separately from official election monitors and reportedly covers nearly every polling station in Palestinian communities.

Article I, Section 4 is about as clear as the Constitution gets: states run their elections
Nowhere in that clause is there a role for Trump’s DOJ to play in California

Christianity’s global spread was marked by colonialism, forced conversions, destruction of Indigenous cultures and religious persecution.
International Religious Freedom Day should celebrate the freedom to believe or not believe, not the spread of Christianity.

Lowering the Medicare age to 50 would cost $180 billion a year. That's $70 billion less than the budget increase the House passed for the Department of War.
We could have healthcare over warfare.
I'm proud to cosponsor @RepJayapal's bill to lower the age from 65 to 50.
