At one point I became friendly with a self-proclaimed β€œmoderate evangelical” in the age of Trump and lemme tell you: this shit is deadass legit. Evangelicals are simply the fucking worst.

Trump is clowning his evangelical base He's not even bothering to pretend anymore.

"Trump’s unhinged, hateful remarks at the National Prayer Breakfast don’t disgust his evangelical supporters because they share his seething cultural resentment and endless persecution complex. For them, his open contempt for their mutual enemies resonates more than a true sermon."

N.Y.C. Officials Reinstate Pride Flag at Stonewall After Federal Removal

This is the way. When they come at us, we come back at them twofold. Raise that Pride flag every time they take it down. If they prevent that, surround the park with Pride flags. Ruin their petty little lives until they shit rainbows. Never stop. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/12/n...

Rep. Becca Balint's grandfather died in the Nazis' Mauthausen concentration camp.
