A $20 ticket gets Christians in the door. Then Life Surge pitches $97 seminars. Those seminars pitch courses costing up to $40,000. Tim Tebow and other faith-friendly celebrities supply the trust. Many customers are left carrying the debt. www.friendlyatheist.com/p/the-christ...

Isn’t it crazy that California only wants taxpayer-funded education programs to pay for education, not religious indoctrination?

🚨 ICYMI: This is one of the most offensive and egregious things I’ve ever covered (and that’s saying a lot seeing how it’s Florida):

Of course he lied to Congress. Hello?! He's RFKjr. His Samoa trip and his motives are well-documented. In this tiny island-nation, his actions are directly responsible for sickening thousands, the deaths of at least 83 people – most were children under five years old. He's trying to cull us!

Extraordinary, powerful and heart-wrenching. Active duty Marine Colonel Zach Schmidt, speaking in his personal capacity, about Khalil, an Afghan national whose family helped U.S. forces in Afghanistan. Khalil was deported by the U.S. on Friday to a conflict zone.

This morning in Danbury, ICE was arresting parents at school bus stops. But it’s more sinister. ICE waited until the kids were on the bus so when they are dropped off at the end of the day, they are alone, scared to death they can’t find their parents. I’m heading to Danbury.

Under Donald Trump, our VA has one of the most restrictive abortion bans in the country—denying Veterans care even in cases of rape, incest or serious health risks. Politicians have no business interfering in the personal health decisions of those who served. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
