Do they mean the woman he bribed to close an investigation of his scam university? That Pam Bondi?

This from the guy who wouldn’t even put his hand on the bible when being sworn in? I think the prosecutors have somewhere to start.

Awesome. They’ll prosecute liars, thieves and false idols. Finally some good news. Right?

Christian Nationalists wanted their Nazi uprising, they got it.

And the less specific he is in talking about things like this, the more this will be blatantly abused

What happened to freedom of religion?

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

The xtianists think freedom of religion means choosing from one of hundreds of various xtian sects. They think freedom FROM religion does not exist in Jesusland.

They'll do to freedom FROM religion (which the first amendment requires) what they did to the right of privacy in Roe...

Doesn't this still require specific existing laws (as in actual statutes) to charge someone with violating? Or can they just charge and convict on arbitrary things they don't like, now?

The thing with Trump is, he doesn't care. He will do whatever he can until he's told he can't. So, until this gets challenged and makes its way through the courts, he will do it. So much of our system is built on "norms" that he can get away with doing things that seem like they shouldn't be allowed. Until democrats start doing the same, they'll keep losing for failing to do what the people want.

Under his eye. You're all so fucked. Anyone not looking to leave that country is fooling themselves.

It's not as simple as leaving the country. Not everyone has a passport here. And the vast majority of Americans cannot afford to up end their lives and skip town let alone move to another country entirely. Then it comes to which country to move to. Most countries have requirements for visa entry. If you intend on staying permanently, you have to meet even stricter requirements like higher education, and even then, they won't permit your visa if you aren't in a field that would do good for their country. Some places may have a program similar to America's H1B visa where you can get a job and work in that job to stay in the country but then your livelihood is at the mercy of a stranger in a foreign land letting you keep your job until you can convince the government to give you citizenship. You don't just move to another country. And anyone who can just move to another country is exceedingly privileged.

I'm not leaving. I'm here til the bitter end.

I think this is a good time to promote a blog and podcast that I like:

It's about time. Those poor christians have always been marginalized in the USA, just like white men who own property. And billionaires. And the 1% in general. When will someone finally think of them?

If you can't read sarcasm in the above, you're too illiterate to be on the internet. Get off the internet.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
