  8. This is how the Founders put religiofreaks in their place: ___ From the North Carolina constitution adopted on December 18, 1776: "XXXI. That no clergyman, or preacher of the gospel, of any denomination, shall be capable of being a member of either the Senate, House of Commons, or Council of State, while he continues in the exercise of the pastoral function. . . . . "XXXIV. That there shall be no establishment of any one religious church or denomination in this State, in preference to any other; neither shall any person, on any pretence whatsoever, be compelled to attend any place of worship contrary to his own faith or judgment, nor be obliged to pay, for the purchase of any glebe, or the building of any house of worship, or for the maintenance of any minister or ministry, contrary to what he believes right, or has voluntarily and personally engaged to perform; but all persons shall be at liberty to exercise their own mode of worship:--_Provided_, That nothing herein contained shall be construed to exempt preachers of treasonous or seditious discourses, from legal trial and punishment." ___ From the constitution of Georgia adopted on February 5, 1777: "Art. LVI. All persons whatever shall have the free exercise of their religion; provided it be not repugnant to the peace and safety of the State; and shall not, unless by consent, support any teacher or teachers except those of their own profession." "Art. LXII. No clergyman of any denomination shall be allowed a seat in the legislature." ___ From New York constitution adopted on April 20. 1777: XXXIX. And whereas the ministers of the gospel are, by their profession, dedicated to the service of God and the care of souls, and ought not to be diverted from the great duties of their function; therefore, no minister of the gospel, or priest of any denomination whatsoever, shall, at any time hereafter, under any pretence or description whatever, be eligible to, or capable of holding, any civil or military office or place within this State. ___ Those state constitution provisions, and their equivalents in the other state constitutions, eventuated in the First Amendment separation of "religion" from gov't.

  18. Many have short memories: When Hillary Clinton was leading in the polls during the last months of the election, Trump began asserting that if he lost it would be because the election was "rigged". He did the same in 2020. He is doing the same now. It's well beyond due that voters see through that transparently obvious self-serving hogwash. MAGA consists of people who are uneducated and live to be entertained. They were fans of "tough guy" Trump's fake "reality" TeeVee show. They knew nothing of politics and had zero interest in it. They rejected "all that". When he decided to run for president they followed him, instantly imagining themselves experts in politics. They were lied to about the 2016 election, and they believed every word of it -- because they knew then and know now ZERO about how elections actually WORK. As example, in 2016 there were numerous audits and hand-recounts in, as example, Georgia. But they didn't hear about any of that because the right-wing media they guzzle perpetuated Trump's lie instead of educating their viewers to how elections actually work. We saw similar during the 2000 election: Gore's lawyers spoke directly to the Florida elections law; Bushit's lawyers asserted a view directly OPPOSITE that law. And the media let that stand -- so the viewer could "decide" who to believe -- instead of providing the text of the actual law. So the media put politics above the rule of law. "Justice and the Rule of Law are to be ABOVE politics." -- John Adams. Then Scalia unconstitutionally usurped Congress's exclusive authority to resolve election disputes, and that Court voted twice in the same election, which is illegal, and appointed Bushit.
