When I read the phrase, "whited sepulchre," these people are who I now think of. Clean and shining on the outside, and on the inside, full of dead men's' bones and all manner of filth.

A-fucking-men, Evan! These chuds use their stated morality as a weapon against anyone not in their group, and "redemption" as a "get out of jail card free" for themselves. And it's all designed to shut down any discussion of the matter.

BTW, I figured Maga Mike to be a butt guy, not a boob guy.

Holy Mikey is just a creep. It's icky to have father/son porn monitoring app. Imagine that with your own kid. Maybe don't believe it's disgusting. It smacks of child abuse grown into abuse of the adult child.

These misogynistic, racist, homophobic, transphobic, holier than thou people should be attacked for those very qualities by opponents in their next election. It could be done if people have the stomach for it.

They are fucking crazy.

If you need to defend your most vile and hypocritical beliefs and actions by telling the world you’re a Christian and a patriot, you’re neither.

Yep, just like how people who are actually smart don't need to go around telling everyone how smart they are all the time because it is self-evident.

When someone tells me they are a Christian I always ask “A Jesus Christian or a MAGA Christian?”

If he has not made amends to those he has harmed, Jesus does not forgive him.

American "Christians" tend to worship Antichrist, in actuality.

Mike Johnson reminds me of something I heard long ago about what to do when your are introduced to a Church of Christ minister "Keep a tight hold on your wallet...and your wife".

ChINO Christian and name only

Isn't being one of "the creepiest, smarmiest, most dangerous Christian nationalists" the #1 criterion for "leadeship" for a simple plurality of our fellow Amurikkkans?

I recall Tyrion Lannister's remark to Janos Slynt, "I am not questioning your honor, I am denying its existence."

It’s important that no one ever concede the moral high ground to trash like Johnson and morally corrupt types like him.

I hope that by the first week in January, Speaker Mike’s Johnson will be securely tucked back into his pants where it belongs, instead of trying to fuck us over.

Well said, and all too true.
