"My dear friends, your vote is precious, almost sacred. It is the most powerful nonviolent tool we have to create a more perfect union." -- the late Congressman John Lewis.

Lindsay Denmark in her own words: she is a Christian Nationalist who wants Christian prayer in our schools. Do NOT vote for her for Duval County School Board. Our children must be protected from religious indoctrination!

Is it permissible to teach the Ten Commandments in public school? Should religious exemptions to vaccines be allowed? FFRF Legal Counsel Chris Line joins Jay Friedenberg for an in-depth talk on the blurring divide between state and church. Listen ➡️ ffrf.us/4ip0QUj

Christian nationalism doesn't need to become a full-blown theocracy to be dangerous. When government promotes Christianity in schools and uses religious beliefs to restrict our rights, the threat is already here. We must fight back before it becomes the norm.

America is not a Christian nation. It was never founded as one. That doesn't stop 45% of Americans from saying we *should be* a Christian nation. This election is our chance to show up loudly on the side of secular democracy. Vote Nov. 3, or vote early today in most states. ffrf.us/vote

There’s a third option: Reject this insane religious fearmongering and live a free life without worrying about imaginary threats of eternal torture.

Vote like your rights depend on it — because they do. In a chaotic #midterms election season like no other, the message rings truer than ever before. What are your #voting plans? 🗳️ Leave a comment, ask three friends. Tell them the time is now to protect our secular democracy. ffrf.us/vote

The 94-year old woman (center) who insisted on attending NO KINGS: VOTE EARLY should be an inspiration to us all. Old and young and everyone in between needs to make their voice heard!

They’re not even pretending this is about religious freedom anymore. They’re openly discussing plans to seize political power and impose their religious ideology on everyone else. When Christian nationalists tell us what they intend to do, we should believe them.

New survey: 83% of nonreligious Americans see empathy as a core moral value, compared to just 42% of white evangelicals. If compassion threatens your religious worldview, perhaps the problem isn’t compassion. religionnews.com/2026/10/20/a...

OUR Religion? WE don't have a religion. The Constitution protects everyone’s right to practice their religion, change their religion, or reject religion altogether.

I honestly don’t know much about El-Sayed, but this is a perfect answer from him. It’s also hilarious that Tommy used to work for Josh Hawley and was paid 250k for influencer marketing AGAINST El-Sayed. They might want to get a refund. What a spectacular backfire. The walk of shame at the end. 🤣

If this is the best plan Christian nationalists have for bringing America back to Jesus, we're feeling pretty optimistic about the future of secularism. christianpost.com/news/kid-roc...

The Freedom From Religion Foundation is a proud partner of #VoteEarlyDay (Oct 24) — because when we vote early, we send a message of defiance to the Christian nationalists in power. Learn more at voteearlyday.org ➡️ #[ffrf.us/4hPVTVu

Your freedom from prison should never depend on surrendering your freedom of religion. Kudos to American Atheists and Colorado advocates for securing this important victory. Recovery should be about getting help, not being coerced into religious participation.

Power to the People...WE VOTE!

Celebrating "No Kings" today at FFRF Convention!

Mission Accomplished Jacksonville, FL! We saw good friends, met some new ones, shared some love, enjoyed some music, and spread the word about early voting.

Join NCOJ on Saturday!

Today!

And when people put God above human rights, equality, science, and the Constitution, everything else suffers. We’ve seen what happens when religion takes priority over people. That’s why secular government matters.

NCOJ is a proud NO KINGS partner. Let's rally and then take action to GET OUT THE VOTE! www.facebook.com/share/p/19Rq...

The age of leftist vs right wing governance is practically dead; what we have left is democracy vs kleptocracy; the common good vs greed and violence. We all need to adapt and redraw the lines and define (or redefine) who we all are as nations, as allies, and as a people.

A former church youth leader was convicted of sexually abusing a young boy in a church basement. After one assault, he told the child not to tell anyone and said, “God would want you to do this.” A horrific abuse of both a child and religious authority. www.einnews.com/pr_news/9453...

The Trump administration said its new TV ads are public service announcements. But law experts said unlike PSAs, the ads don’t inform viewers about how to access, benefit from or understand government programs. buff.ly/a3F1IM8

NEW: California's attorney general said Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco (R) will face "legal consequences" after the state Supreme Court determined his seizure of roughly 650k ballots violated state law. Bianco must now comply with the attorney general's directives and return the ballots.

Do you hear that? That’s the sound of a massive #BlueWaveIn40Days It only happens if we get out the vote, so make a plan and make sure your friends and family have a plan. Let’s end this cycle of chaos and corruption that is the Trump administration and his doormat Congress.🗳️🗳️

Quid Pro Carrico goes down and it is so well deserved! The BGC Board probably gave him time to find some other job before letting him go. Now he just needs to resign from City Council! www.news4jax.com/news/local/2...

Happy Constitution Day! Can you sing the Schoolhouse Rock version of the Preamble? Try it! youtu.be/40vQEotjK4k?...

Come Together! VOTE BLUE! LJ Holloway for Congress FL-4!

The wishful thinking of the AI risk deniers has a fatal flaw: if you pretend that the risks can be brushed off as little more than the equivalent of an advertising jingle, you’re letting the AI labs off the hook. https://bit.ly/4xWyyHj

The Senate could soon vote on a bill that would turbocharge Trump’s corruption. Since the GOP only needs to peel off a handful of Democrats to pass this crypto legislation, it’s extra important for the Senate to hear from us. Send an email and demand that your senators vote NO on the CLARITY Act.

ICYMI: A new lawsuit against a pending law in Florida — modeled after Trump’s SAVE America Act — alleges that voters would be disenfranchised by the restrictive proof-of-citizenship requirement. “Federal law does not permit Florida to subject eligible voters to those risks,” the suit states.

Please do something to help get people to vote. I'll be canvassing on Saturday for Angie Nixon for Florida and LJ Holloway for Congress- US House of Representatives FL District 4. What are you able to do? www.mobilize.us/angieforflor...

Will the Unseen-MAGA Aaron Bean show up to debate LJ Holloway? Will he defend cutting Medicaid, cutting ACA subsidies, not fighting against tariffs or the illegal war--all of which are contributing to the cost of living crisis for the people? What do you think?

Not only does the Unseen MAGA Aaron not want to hear from the people in CD4 at in-person in Town Hall, he also doesn't want to hear from us on Facebook, Instagram or YouTube either. Comments are blocked! Vote for a candidate that will listen to the people LJ Holloway!
