These idiots are so obsessed with their fever dreams that Christians are the religious group most persecuted in America that they feel compelled to specifically protect already protected speech and give away the game that they are raging antisemites purporting to defend Jews against antisemitism.
SCOOP: The Antisemitism Awareness Act — up for vote in Senate committee tomorrow — now has a religious liberty clause to protect ‘Jews killed Jesus’ statements by Christian conservatives.
New added language in the bill clarifies First Amendment protections.

Donald Trump keeps saying he has no intention of slashing Social Security, but…
he and his mini-me, Elon Musk, won’t stop making outlandish claims about the program and appear to be setting the table for cuts that they will try to call something other than “cuts.”

Trump and Vance are stuck in the MAGA bubble, where anti-Ukraine propaganda spreads nonstop. They really think most Americans support their pro-Putin policies. They couldn’t be more wrong.
