The other night I addressed the local chapters of the League of Women Voters and NAACP as part of a panel on the Voter amendments on the VA ballet. I was there on Marriage Equality which includes no discrimination against race, codifying interracial marriage for all Virginians.

There were two entities: America 250, a bipartisan organization chartered by Congress, and Freedom 250, a Trump-backed group. Companies intending to donate to America250 were supplied routing and account numbers that directed their funds to Freedom 250. wapo.st/4fe4Whs

Donors were misled by Trump-backed Freedom 250, House Democrats allege
The lawmakers’ report alleges that Trump allies worked to divert funds away from America250, a bipartisan effort to mark the nation’s semiquincentennial. Freedom 250 denies the allegations.

I asked my MAGA focus group if they were angry about Trump using the presidency to make $2.2 billion in a year-and-a-half. Most stared at me blankly, and one asked if any of this had to do with trans.

By speaking out, this Major has likely relinquished his right to millions of dollars of future benefits and entitlements of his service. Health insurance, pension, etc. When Hegseth was threatening Mark Kelly an other veteran members of Congress, that’s what he was after. Not a small show of courage

Marco Rubio is against birthright citizenship. But Marco Rubio *is* a birthright citizen. Ted Cruz is against birthright citizenship. But Ted Cruz was born in Canada. He only got US citizenship by a birthright citizenship law because of his US mother. They are both shameless hypocrites.

First of all, Rejected is a strong word - the wrong one in this sentence. To be clear, this PCA report is not a report that outright rejects Christian Nationalism and in fact starts out with “it’s difficult to define” 🫠 Yes I have read it.

Playing dumb is not the leadership the American people need right now, even if the majority seem to love that tact. Being daft only discredits your opinions & scholarship &ability to assess imminent dangers. “A wizard should know better!” (Sorry I’m a geek but I can’t help but see Saruman in this.)

if someone says "Christian Nationalism is difficult to define" they are either morally unserious or theologically lazy. Maaaaybe if they said this in 2020 I'd go, ok, so let's define it. NOT in the year of our LORD 2026.

So many senior appointees in the Trump admin got positions they were utterly unqualified and unprepared for because of their social media presence or Fox appearances. MAGA cheers it on. Then it constantly comes back to bite them when they screw things up - like the Texas gerrymander.

Treating anti-Blackness as beside the point, as not disqualifying, as something to be overlooked, I’d argue, is partially how we got here.

We must note that all the condemnation of Tucker Carlson platforming Nick Fuentes has been about anti-Semitism and there has been an alarming and revealing silence around his anti-Black racism and white supremacy. When the head of the Heritage Foundation apologized, he only cited anti-Semitism.

it’s a big mistake to underestimate values of rising Christian Nationalists & their views on gender equality, in light of the reality of lengths they go to for their beliefs & power. To ignore their rhetoric or try to diminish their impact is to sacrifice our daughters & sons to a misogynist regime.

Picture of a truck with Ben’s quote displayed on the side, which says: One of the most successful deceptions of our time was getting so many Americans to fear diversity more than racism, equality more than misogyny, democracy more than fascism, immigrants more than authoritarians, the poor more than corrupt billionaires, and empathy more than cruelty.

If the PCA Study Committee Report on Christian Nationalism never mentions Heritage Foundation, project 2025, American Reformer, the CREC, and America First Policy Institute, it’s just running subterfuge for all of them. Now if they come back actually condemning any of these, that will be something 👀

What's the evangelical theology behind Trump's Israel (& Iran) strategy? Many analysts & pundits are pointing to "Dispensationalism" (a.k.a. Rapture theology), but it's actually much weirder & more alarming than that. Here's a sample from Dutch Sheets... 1/ www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3rk...
