Mike Johnson caught on hot mike saying that Republicans will cut Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security next year which he calls "entitlements"
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Government being viewed as an obstruction to liberty didn’t really kick in until the Reagan era. Even Richard Nixon, for all his myriad faults, would today be viewed as (at least somewhat) progressive. Boru

It's weird how there are government officials in the UK mirroring the conservative ignorance of 'Murican officials.

At Turning Point USA conference, women offer away their right to vote
Several women said they’d be willing to give up their right to vote if it meant creating a more conservative country at the Turning Point USA Women’s Leadership Summit recently held in San Antonio, Texas. “My perspective as a Christian woman is that my husband and I are one flesh,” Alexus DeGraaf told the Canadian CBC news outlet at the Christian Right mega-convention. “I vote the same way he does, so honestly, I would be okay with giving up my right to vote, because I know that he would represent me well.” She was one of a few women who expressed this to the CBC, including rising conservative star influencer Savannah Stone, who peddled the idea that there should be just one vote per household, instead of per person, with deference to the husband’s choice of candidate. “If my husband’s the head of the household, I am the neck, and we work very cohesively together,” Brooke Foxworthy told the CBC. “So, I would imagine if he was voting on behalf of our household, I would be fine with that.” Ideas about restricting women voting seemed connected at the summit to ideas about restricting voting in general: A reporter from The Nation reported seeing “No Voter ID, No Vote” stickers throughout the conference. The women’s leadership summit was headed by Erika Kirk, the widow of the ultraconservative founder of Turning Point USA Charlie Kirk, who was murdered last September. President Donald Trump has credited Turning Point for mobilizing young voters for his campaign and drafting scores of young people to the Christian Right movement. https://www.democracydocket.com/news-ale...t-to-vote/

Some MAGA rando posted on X that 675 ballots for Spencer Pratt were found in a dumpster in San Recto, California. Slight problem: San Recto doesn't exist.
