Trump has publicly rejected Project 2025 as Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign has sought to tie him to some of the plan’s most extreme proposals. But in private, Vought said that those disavowals were merely “graduate-level politics.”

Deep State is okay so long as I’m part of the in-group!
- low-educated maga bigot, probably.
Gotta hurt the right people.

FYI, it’s “bald faced”. It comes from “barefaced”, as in, having nothing to hide behind. A bare/bald face has no hair to hide behind, so it is out in the open.
I knew the right phrasing, but not the origins. Thanks for that.
So my beard makes me…treacherous. I see.

I’m a better Christian than most Christians. And I don’t even believe in a Sky Daddy!
Of course! After all, not questioning things regardless of evidence to the contrary is what religious “faith” is all about. Why would religious leaders push “faith” so hard if they weren’t planning on taking advantage of it?
“Never do business with a religious son-of-a-bitch. His word ain’t worth a shit – not with the Good Lord telling him how to fuck you on the deal.”

Frank Zappa had a few choice words of the direction of Christian Nationalists, 40 years ago:

Because God doesn’t like lying and scheming… unless it’s in his (loosly defined, unprovable, constantly shifting) design.
They’re morally right and you’re morally wrong. Why? Because they say so.

Classic dark triad behavior. The ends will always justify the means as far as these ghouls are concerned
The God stuff is just used to control the masses and the useful idiots. No one in the upper echelons, including those of the Vatican, believes any of that. If they did, they would out and shame pedophiles with extreme prejudice. The God delusion is used to attain and maintain power and access to resources. Nothing more.
Edit: I understand some people earnestly need their faith, so that’s why I think religion should just be a private thing. But religion and religious belief of any kind needs to removed from serious public discourse and policymaking. Enough is enough.
I think the counterargument here is that hurting people is bad, even when they’ve done harm,
but even that falls pretty short, because it’s not just that the upper echelons of the Catholic Church aren’t “outing and shaming” them, but also that the system is literally protecting them.
It’s different when they do it because they are the Heroic PCs rather than the Villainous NPCs.
They’re going to do the based trad MAGA reforms, not the Soy Woke Chinese Communism.
Lol, those religious people have never actually read their religious texts. They just belive whatever their cult leader says.
Idk about other Christians, but for Catholics you can just say, “oops, my bad,” and do penance and you’re good. God’s like, oh well, you asked for forgiveness so that must mean you’re like, super sorry. No Hell for you, because you’re baptized and awesome.
The New Testament is like one massive cope after all the rules and violence in the Old Testament. At least from what I was taught in school; I don’t read that shit as an adult.
