Whatever faith tradition Thiel claims, heterodox Protestant or something, his most important influences were extreme conservative rightwing Catholics, including Opus Dei and Nazi Catholics. Girard, Schmitt, JRR Tolkien and Arne Panula. archive.ph/sgDHl

Vance and Erika Kirk are Catholics. They belong to a conservative faction in the United States that believes the Vatican went too far under Pope Francis Catholics who reject Rome… isn’t that the same as saying Protestants? Sharlet asks @jeffsharlet.bsky.social english.elpais.com/usa/2025-09-...

A columnist is not a reporter. Point taken. But had reporters of all MSM done a better job tying EPPC “report” to Leonard Leo’s web, the columnist might have known the significance & mentioned his connection. Columnist opinion does not get a pass to disregard factual background, context & relevance.

@thelisagraves.bsky.social book now available. Get it. Read it. www.rawstory.com/amp/john-rob...

Roger and Carrie Severino are Leonard Leo capos and Opus Dei affiliated www.lgbtqnation.com/2025/09/righ...

Ethics and Public Policy Center is DC’s hard right, extreme Catholic DC think tank. Leonard Leo and Robbie George serve on board. Ed Whelan, who smeared Christine Blasey Ford for Leo is an official. Reporter fail. Why no Leo mention? @skirchy.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Catholic legal positivists and those working under the banner of so-called “natural law originalism”: the Holy Father makes quite clear that their theories are out of step. open.substack.com/pub/thenewdi...

Back atcha.

Some of us has been saying this for years. Leonard Leo spent 35 years and $600 million to build a Supreme Court to usher in an Opus Dei Catholic Christofascist America - like Franco Spain. No separation of church and state. Carl Schmitt immunity for the king. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Fascinating piece. Why wont @davidcorn.bsky.social & @motherjones.com do something similar on Leonard Leo? Who has been more damaging to US democracy - Dagan or Leo? Corn was the first reporter I asked to investigate Leo - in freakin 2010. MJ passed. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

If you know the name John Malcolm, its because he is the Leonard Leo stooge initially credited by NYT w the trump Supreme Court judges list in spring 2016. Classic Leo diversion move. Look over there. Not me. www.heritage.org/press/herita...

In the preface, Supreme Court Justice Samuel A. Alito, Jr. calls the Heritage Guide to the Constitution “a great place to start” for Americans who “want to understand what our Constitution means.” www.heritage.org/press/herita...

Alarm by Ian Millhiser, the hot shot law reporter who was deep briefed about Leonard Leo (06/05/2017) but has so far refused to write about him. Proud to be blocked by Ian. @vox.com www.vox.com/politics/463...

This is as bad as it gets. @ninaburleigh.bsky.social has maybe the most frightening column Ive read yet. Kegseth. Rivers of blood! open.substack.com/pub/american...

I took my newly 1 year old baby to her check-up this morning & she got her MMR, chicken pox, flu & COVID shots. If she's feeling fussy tonight, I'll alternate Tylenol & Motrin, per my pediatrician's rec. How fun that I get to ignore the president & be a good mom (and good citizen) instead.

Seven miles from my house. We’re over in Hyattsville all the time. Great Saturday Barbershop blues jam and terrific Latin American restaurants. I never thought Id see this day. www.thehandbasket.co/p/ice-agents...

h/t @sarahviktoria.bsky.social If you have any interest in abortion, culture wars & Catholic/Protestant truce, listen to this. Im familar the Falwell - Weyrich backroom deal, but a lot of this was new to me. No wonder Leonard Leo has turned to producing movies www.bbc.com/audio/play/m...

Sea change in US opinion? As delusional as believing Charlie Kirk is in heaven. Last I checked the trumpista party of pedophiles and predators approval hovered around 35% - about where Hitler’s was when he came and went from power. Kevin Roberts - Opus Dei. nationalinterest.org/feature/kevi...

If our rights come from god, which god? The god of those in power. Theocratic fascism. Period. community.triblive.com/news/3886667

I just finished a talk on this very point. It should be posted online soon www.populismstudies.org/ecps-panel-f...

Would someone who has Thom Hartman’s contact info please tell him to google Catholic Integralism. Extreme right Catholics are as motivated by their “faith” as Pete Hegseth and Mike Johnson Protestants are motivated by theirs. www.alternet.org/supreme-cour...

Brilliant 😅😂

There is only one thing all these assholes have in common. Easy access to guns. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

For the MIRROR to say this… yikes

All of legacy MSM’s Catholic problem. No problem labeling Protestant Christian Nationalists. Scared shitless of Catholic Nationalists, the ones on Supreme Court actually pulling the levers. www.status.news/p/cnn-jack-p...

“6 Republicans on Supreme Court have been amazing, baffling, & horrifying Court-watchers & judges from across the political spectrum” In fact Leonard Leo Supremes are amazingly consistent w Catholic Integralism. Only puzzling if you dont consider theological goals smirkingchimp.com/thread/thom-...
