Weekend Wrap Up: October 23, 2022

With so much going on in our world, we sometimes miss important issues. Please feel free to share any headlines we may have missed or new developments providing they come from reliable and credible sources. We won’t accept any parroted, Russian propaganda from far-right ‘news’ sources unless you’re trying to point out that the far-right extremist in our country and elsewhere actually believe their own BS or Russian disinformation. Nor, will we except any parroted far-right BS regarding issues occurring here, at home. We also ask that you provide a link to your source so folks can read it if they want. Please do not make any claims that you cannot factually validate or verify.

Why didn’t you do those things when you held the WH, Senate and House under Trump. It’s only been 2 years since you had all the power and you did nothing. Don’t trust the Republicans, they have voted no to every bill since 2020. pic.twitter.com/UMcyn2dNX1

J6 Updates:

The 9th Circuit held that Kelli Ward cannot withhold her cell phone records from the January 6th Committee. My concern is the sweeping language of the decision. The impact on political speech could be not just chilling but glacial. https://t.co/9HkI1WYIdI

What Others are Saying/The Sunday Shows:

“The failure of the Republican Party to break away from someone who's being investigated,” @DonnaBrazile says.

“The fact that Republicans are comfortable running with Donald Trump and not running on their own agenda—that speaks volumes.” https://t.co/3uSPZ2RrHY pic.twitter.com/gRONVGS1DJ

COVID-19/Covidiots:

Wrong Answer:

COVID, KIDS & MANDATES: “I think every child should seek out this vaccine, parents should strongly consider vaccinating their kids, I don't think it should be mandated by states & I wouldn't expect to see any state mandating this vaccine,” @ScottGottliebMD https://t.co/hTiggzCSoK

Fundie Freak Alert:

Guy at Trump rally today on why he loves Trump: “The biblical principles that Trump embraces is what I really like about him. I’ve never heard another president invoke the name of God and Jesus as much. He’s embracing biblical principles. Follow the Bible and you can’t go wrong.” pic.twitter.com/k0SgG2Lw8D

And the KKKult slurps down their ‘orange drink:’

Here’s the opening prayer at today’s Trump rally & Christian nationalist worship service.

This is the definition of taking the Lord’s name in vain.

Trump-evangelicalism is a cult.

“Christian” nationalism is a heresy. It is a threat to authentic Christian faith & to democracy. pic.twitter.com/0A65GTBaij
