Most Americans agree we need to get money out of politics. If that takes a constitutional amendment, then that's what we have to do. And if that's going to take years, then it's all the more reason to begin pushing now.

This is genuinely chilling. We all remember that Rob McCoy allowed a convicted child predator to lead a Bible study for kids as young as 8. His congregation brushed it off, but the internet isn’t letting it slide. What does that say about his flock? www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8DWKb6m/

We had a great time registering voters at CLU and educating people about Prop 50. Yesterday we were at Moorpark College! We’ll be back next week! #yesonprop50

just saw a tiktok from a disney adult reading from On Tyranny and asking their followers to cancel their d+ and disney trips omg

Fox News falls for it hook, line, and sinker.

It's been a long eight months. The maga diehards are starting to pay more for imported foods, cars, appliances, clothes, groceries, gas.. they see him weak on Russia. Hopefully, they will soon realize what we knew all along - he's the worst President ever. #HVStrong #Indivisible #fightfordemocracy

If you haven’t listened to “Sons of Patriarchy” it’s a deeply disturbing collection of abuse stories from families, schools, marraiges and also includes sexual abuse of adults and minors that is either directly covered up by Wilson and his church or related in some way. www.sonsofpatriarchy.com

Doug Wilson’s “Christ Church” in Moscow, ID is met with resistance by a podcast solely dedicated to abuse suffered by its congregants. Wilson’s Church is Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches (CREC) & is 1 of the leading Christian nationalist movements in the USA. favs.news/moscow-event...

Emerging paramilitary wings of Christian nationalism in the US (over 200 Instagram accounts) including a generation of fitness-obsessed, “Christ-pilled” young men, some of who call themselves tradcaths, is recruiting young men and replacing traditional militia mov’mts. www.wired.com/story/christ...
