JD Vance sold his soul to MAGA and Christian Nationalism because he thinks it will win him the next presidential election.
In exchange he gets to go on stage at a Turning Point event and has tell the world he thinks his wife is going to hell, but that’s her choice so he’s ok with it.

WATCH: Dr Oz lies that KFF “retracted” their numbers about how high ACA premiums are about to go if Republicans refuse to extend the subsidies
He told a reporter to “go back and look at the website” — so he did 👇🏽

It’s just a rebrand, much like churches changing their name from First Baptist to The Fellowship.
The veneer is different, but the substance is still the same.

Some evangelicals are "quietly quitting" Trump and MAGA
The administration's immigration raids and cuts to humanitarian aid are among the factors.
This sounds promising but unless these evangelicals actually repent and renounce the hatred, bigotry, racism, and callousness that allowed them to embrace the MAGA movement in the first place, their “quiet quitting” of Trump is meaningless.

Welch: "This has nothing to do with the shutdown. The law requires and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption. So that is a decision the president is making on his own to allow people to go hungry."

Note: This is me — I asked this question.
You’ll hear me say “yes you have” here — because Johnson was already *directly asked* about one of these instances (when the Presbyterian minister was shot in the head with a pepper ball) in one of earlier shutdown press conferences.

House Republicans haven't shown up to work for 40 days.
Donald Trump isn't even in the country.
They shut down the government, spiraling us toward a health care crisis that will hike your monthly premiums and jeopardize coverage for millions—
And then just left.

Every Trans Suicide Is A Murder By Those In Power
News came this week that transgender athlete and student Lia Smith took her life at just 21 years of age.
1. This week, news emerged that former trans athlete, student at Middlebury, and advocate for trans rights, Lia Smith, was found dead.
Her death was ruled a suicide.
But I argue that it's not only a suicide. Every trans suicide is a murder by those in power.

Media keeps reporting Israeli strikes "threaten to derail" ceasefire.
Um, there is no ceasefire if there are strikes and people are killed.
And will they undo the applause of Trump for doing basically nothing?

Dozens of States Sue Trump Administration Over Planned Food Stamp Cuts
The Trump administration has a rainy day fund that will keep SNAP from expiring in November. Trump is refusing to use it.
Funding SNAP isn't a choice he can make. It's a legal obligation. USDA must release the funds and stop punishing the American people.

It costs about $9 billion per month to fund SNAP benefits
That $40 billion for Argentina would feed 42 million Americans for nearly 4 1/2 months
The $75 billion for ICE would cover the other 8 months
But Trump is more interested in helping dictators and terrorizing immigrants
Oh-and the ballroom
