"As a president second to none in blasphemous self-depiction and besotted by venomous white Christian nationalism, Donald Trump and his MAGA authoritarian enablers have attempted to supplant separation of church and state with an authoritarian-imposed neo-Confederacy — a theoretically mandated rigid hierarchy in which white males hold the power. During his 250th Independence Day celebrations, we once again saw how dramatically that anti-constitutional, anti-American vision conflicts with our authentic democratic values expressed in our foundational documents and consistent with our deepest faith traditions."

@MikeDunnAuthor@kolektiva.social absolutely....and three quick points....that's per year....that's, and I'm spitballing here, maybe half of what they are REALLY evading, and if you shift the window to the top 2%, a veritable bonanza.
"At recent Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, judicial nominees, including John Marck, avoided stating whether the 22nd Amendment would bar Donald Trump from seeking another term after two wins. When Senator Coons pressed for a clear acknowledgment of the two-term limit, none responded."
Should immediately disqualify such nominees...

@tchambers@indieweb.social this is phenomenal!....."Let's try to understand what we're talking about. The mRNA cancer vaccine isn't advertised as a vaccine like the one for Covid: it's not intended to prevent anything. It's a real therapy. The principle is to teach the immune system to recognize tumor cells as enemies, providing it with a precise molecular profile. It's a bit like giving a detective a perfect mug shot, instead of telling him to "look for a tall guy."

@petergleick ...every day is just another swift kick in the b*lls reminder of how epically wrong the MAGA-SCOTUS anti-American conspirators were with their ruling, without explanation or logic, of Presidential immunity. Unbridled evil moron can act without any possibility of consequences.

"Former Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, who has formally broken with the Republican Party, said Mr. Trump’s personal enrichment was further proof that MAGA voters needed to abandon the G.O.P.
“The GOP is a disaster,” she wrote on X. “The Republican Party hijacked MAGA, pretended to be America First and MAHA, and then sold us all out. Then Trump rubber stamped the entire con job while taking checks from literally everyone.”
