15 House Dems just voted for HR 9495, which would give Trump power to name any advocacy group or nonprofit as “terrorist affiliated" with no due process.

Senate Dems must not let this attack on free speech come up for a vote during the lame-duck.

If it does, they must vote NO.
The House Just Blessed Trump’s Authoritarian Playbook by Passing Nonprofit-Killer Bill
Attacking civili society is a hallmark of authoritarian regimes — and the House, including some Democrats, just gave Trump the power to do it.

Project 2025 is based on contempt for constitutional norms and the rule of law, seeking to reshape American government, law and society for a generation. And the U.S. Supreme Court has only made it easier for Trump and his allies to do just that.
How the Supreme Court Bolstered Project 2025
From Marc | The Supreme Court has recently become a witting or unwitting facilitator of Project 2025’s dystopian agenda for the future.

Good on Drummond. As soon as I saw this, I knew Drummond was not going to be happy. He’s a conservative Republican, but also seems to have a better understanding of true religious liberty than these guys like Walters. apnews.com/article/reli...
