Writing as a self-declared "Jewish atheist," Paul Waldman says,
"The more radical Republicans get, the more Democrats have an opportunity to persuade the religious people who are growing alienated from the GOP."

"So even if you don’t share the faith of candidates like Beshear and Talarico, or their visible piety makes you a little uncomfortable, don’t forget that Christian nationalism is a growing threat, and fighting it is going to require the help of a lot of Christians."

/2Jennifer Rubin states:
"Those willing to call out with humor and humanity the toxicity of white Christian nationalism deserve the gratitude of all Americans."
She quotes Sen. Raphael Warnock, an ordained minister:
“The biggest adversary to Christian faith is people who speak in the name of Christianity but continue to behave in ways and support policies that are decidedly anti-Christian."

"So, I’ll be taking my cues from Jesus, and not Donald Trump. It is the American Christian slavocracy that is the biggest enemy of Christianity. It is the segregationist who opposed Martin Luther King, Jr. and his movement in the name of faith.
The folks who are so quick to use his name are some of the meanest people I know, and they support some of the meanest policies I know."

"Talarico, a Texas State Representative, is a deeply religious Democratic lawmaker making waves by pointing out MAGA’s religious hypocrisy. Exceedingly clean cut, he looks like a southern Baptist preacher, but he sounds like a true man of faith. And he has zero patience for golden calf worshippers."

"Taking on Trump’s far right base, Talarico rails about the shameful gulf between the teachings of Christ and the suffering Trump is inflicting on the nation and the world.
Talarico notes that MAGA, while hewing to a self-proclaimed Christian identity, doesn’t seem to mind that Trump is building concentration camps to cage people who haven’t committed a crime."

They don’t care that his agents are murdering peaceful US protestors and Venezuelans in fishing boats that cannot, due to size and distance, make it to US shores and therefore cannot be posing a direct threat."

Talarico urges MAGA to look at themselves and realize that chasing power at all costs is wrong."

Asked about Pope Leo's refusal to join Trump's "Board of Peace," his press secretary Karoline Leavitt, educated from grade school through college in Catholic schools and known for wearing an ostentatious cross while prevaricating boldly, stated,
"It’s deeply unfortunate. I don’t think that peace should be partisan, or political, or controversial."

"Of course, the administration wants all those who were invited to join the Board of Peace to join, because, again, the Board of Peace is overseeing the reconstruction of a territory that has been plagued with violence, with bloodshed, poverty for far too long. This president has a very bold and ambitious plan and vision to rebuild and reconstruct Gaza, which is well underway, because of the Board of Peace.”

@wdlindsy Are we ever going to stop referring to the monsters as "Christian"? They're just nationalists. There's nothing Christian about what they do. Nationalists are un-Christian.

@wdlindsy as I said in my other comment, the MAGA fall apart over Epstein, paired with the other shit happening. It makes a void that those of us against Trump and the admin can leverage to continue fighting against him.

And also what we're dealing with here is a Pope, a Holy Father, who is not complying with the cool kids. And he doesn't want to sit at their table, okay?"

"Donald Trump came to power by successfully joining this so-called 'Christian nationalism' with the reactionary fears of the Tea Party insurgency and the greed of emerging techno-feudalists. The MAGA coalition that made Donald Trump president would never have gained power without the religious nationalist movement that markets the GOP as 'God’s Own Party.'”
