Florida AG James Uthmeier is threatening Catholic school voucher funding unless they weaken their vaccine rules. Because nothing says "religious liberty" like holding money hostage until Catholic bishops accept the government’s theology. www.friendlyatheist.com/p/florida-ag...

Florida AG threatens to defund Catholic schools unless they loosen vaccination rules

James Uthmeier is leveraging taxpayer money to force his anti-vaccine beliefs on Catholic schools, which refuse to offer religious exemptions for required shots

Don't worry, Despicable Donnie's personal attorney is also planning to make abortion illegal even to save the life of the mother. Women are useless and irrelevant anyway, unless they're pretty, young bottle blondes who adore the Pedophile in Chief. Just ask any man in the Trump Regime.

We urge senators and the public not to ignore Blanche’s un-American objective to transform the Justice Department into a vehicle for advancing religion. Read more ➡️ ffrf.us/4fPEutU

Having consistently called the candidate "Abdul El-Sayed," Trumpublicans are now suddenly calling him "Abdulrahman Mohamed El‐Sayed." I bet "barack ***HUSSEIN*** obama" understands. El-Sayed must be much more of a danger than Trumpublicans are willing to admit.

Schiff: "The president is entitled to his own views about me or anybody else. He is not entitled, however, to use the DOJ to go after his political opponents. The day we say that's ok and the day we confirm an AG who says that's ok is the day the rule of law becomes merely an unenforceable idea."

Rep. Max Miller: "Taking my toddler daughter to the ER because I broke my toddler daughter's collarbone was a contempt violation of our shared parenting plan." Me: And you, "Mister" Spouse and Child Abuser, are merely contemptible.

Rep. Max Miller: "When I was reported for child abuse of my daughter for a broken collarbone, my daughter was in my ex-wife's care 9 out of the last 11 days and she took her to the emergency room, which is a contempt violation from our shared parenting plan."

honestly can't stress enough, as a former family law attorney, how depressingly common Max Miller's behavior and words are, right down to the petty fixation on custody procedure and rules when faced with allegations of shocking violence.

Atheism asserts nothing. It only rejects the claims that no one can prove. I personally say, if God exists and God is love and God is all-powerful, why are there evil, suffering, and death? Why are children raped, and their rapist goes free because he is wealthy and powerful?

Is it wrong of me to hope David Hearn sues the Trump Regime, and Donnie personally, for false arrest, bad-faith indictment, malicious prosecution, false imprisonment, libel, slander, abuse of process, intentional infliction of distress? Is it wrong to hope that Mr. Hearn is awarded $1.776 billion?

If a Trumpublican confirmed RFK, Bondi, Hegseth, Patel, & Noem, funded ICE, stood by while Trump hollowed out the [intelligence community], fired 1,000s, drained the Treasury, hijacked the country’s 250th, trashed the White House & Reflecting Pool — is Blanche really going to be THE LINE? C'mon.

Honey, if Democrats were truly rigging the vote, the wealthy would pay their fair share, we'd have universal healthcare, gun control, & 6-month parental leave for both sexes, the minimum wage would be $24/hour, and Despicable Donnie would be selling time shares in New Jersey.

Despicable Donnie, about last week's Reflecting Pool admission: "It WAS vandalism! It was, it was, it was! Vandalism! Intentional evil! Off with Jeanine's head! She's only licensed in New York anyway! It WAS vandalism! It was, it was, it was! I say so, so it's true!"
