It is fascist, and gender critical is becoming part of it. If you don’t want males in female sports, you’re expected to support Israel enacting genocide every day for 600 days and counting. I voted for Stein not because of her tra stance, but because I felt her anti war approach was most important.

Attorney General Pam Bondi announced forming a task force to tackle anti-Christian biases in the US https://reddit.com/r/thescoop/comments/1k6hm8j/attorney_general_pam_bondi_announced_forming_a/
April 23 2025, Officials launch task force to root out ‘anti-Christian bias’ in VA: https://www.militarytimes.com/veterans/2025/04/23/officials-launch-task-force-to-root-out-anti-christian-bias-in-va/
Quote:President Donald Trump in February ordered VA and 15 other agencies to establish the anti-Christian-bias task forces to “end the anti-Christian weaponization of government.” He claimed that past administrations’ support for abortion rights and diversity efforts amounted to an attack on Christian beliefs.
How convenient.

That's terrifying to me. Everyone in the handbasket, we're heading to Gilead. Or maybe to the Book of Revelation.

I want to scream that this is unconstitutional, but who the fuck is even listening at this point.

No one, that's who.

I thought this was an interesting Reddit comment under a link to a judge in New Mexico being arrested:

And under that comment, this interesting comment, although I don't know enough about Opus Dei stuff to have a good sense about how "real" it is versus being conspiracy-theory:

At some point, someone is going to shoot up ICE agents during a raid because the idiots refuse to identify themselves and what they're doing is functionally identical to being assaulted at gun point

Makes me wonder if the current administration is counting on that as a reason to declare martial law.
If I worked for ICE, I would NOT be enthused about the idea of raiding someone's house in plainclothes and no warrant. A lot of households are going to be "shoot first, ask for warrant later." Trump's administration is sending ICE agents on suicide missions.

Yes, they're looking for an excuse. I'm sure Stephen Miller has the declaration invoking the Insurrection Act already drafted and ready for Trump's signature.
