Compared with a year ago, White Protestants and religiously unaffiliated adults now have significantly less confidence that Trump acts ethically in office. For example, 26% of White nonevangelical Protestants are extremely or very confident Trump acts ethically in office, down from 38%. And the share of religious “nones” who have a lot of confidence in Trump’s ethics now stands at 10%, down from 16%. Confidence in Trump’s ethics has remained low among Black Protestants.
Extremely or very confident Donald Trump acts ethically in office
White evangelicals 40%
US adult avg. 21%
Unaffiliated 10%
Black Protestants 7%

I joined forces with @tomjoscelyn.bsky.social.
We explain deep connections between senior administration officials' smearing Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and ICE protestors as "domestic terrorists" and how this fits into the draconian NSPM-7.
Important for more people to wake up to this.
Yes, but the criticism comes easily now because there is some incontrovertible video evidence indicating murder. But neither DHS nor ICE produced the evidence, and committed themselves to a policy of policing so that there is no inhumane treatment, let alone murder.

The New York Times investigated 346 people who donated at least $250,000 to Trump and found that more than half of them (197) have received pardons, jobs, government contracts, special treatment, or favors.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and moral, then it’s not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power. - Dwight Eisenhower

Not that it has an historically perfect record to say the least, I always appreciated the Catholic view that the truths of science cannot conflict witj faith. Hence, acceptance of evolution for example.
