NEW: From the wholesale gutting of federal agencies to the ongoing government shutdown, Russ Vought has drawn the road map for Trump’s second term.

Vought has consolidated power to an extent that insiders say they feel like “he is the commander in chief.”

“Church-state separation is under severe threat from Christian Nationalists who want to impose their narrow beliefs on all of us. This House resolution is a breath of fresh air ... our country needs a national recommitment to the separation of church and state before it’s too late." - Rachel Laser

We exist to push back on #ChristianNationalism. Putting a spotlight on these toxic ideas is vital to squashing them.

We are so glad that they gave our friend @andrewlseidel.bsky.social a chance to counter this . Religion has a place. Just not in government. Reject #ChristianNationalism. Vote accordingly.

You cannot get any more unAmerican than what Tom Oliverson is saying.
The #separationofchurchandstate is foundational to this country. It is an American original. Without it, we become a #theocracy and cease to be America.

It's hilarious that Donald thinks we would believe that *anyone* would turn to him for knowledge about Amelia Earhart—or any other history lesson. He didn't even know what happened at Pearl Harbor when he visited during his first term. He's a moron.

'Dangerously uninformed’: New book says Trump didn’t know what happened at Pearl Harbor

The book said, “Trump had heard the phrase ‘Pearl Harbor’ and appeared to understand that he was visiting the scene of a historic battle, but he did not seem to know much else."
