My interview is featured in @CNN's "The Rise of Christian Nationalism" — airing Sunday, March 22 at 8pm ET as part of The Whole Story with @PamelaBrownCNN. I will note that I've gotten more pushback just over the promo that CNN aired than on just about anything else I've done.

Hegseth: "My 13 year old son popped into my office last night while I was editing these remarks. He asked about the war and the families I met at Dover. I looked at him and said, 'They died for you, son. So your generation doesn't have to deal with a nuclear Iran.'"

The Republican candidates support the war and the higher prices that are coming with it. I'm in this for YOU and YOUR WALLET.

Super proud to announce that I have been endorsed by @HoustonSecular, a growing multi-faith organization committed to protecting religious freedom by advocating for the strict separation of church and state. All Americans should be free to worship without government interference or discrimination.

@JohnHMcCallum1 @SaraForTexLege Putting aside the snark…you didn’t answer the question. What does this religious core make a person, an elected official, more effective at?

@HoustonSecular @SaraForTexLege That's a question that can only come from a person who sees religion only as a democratic category to be exploited for votes rather than as what it actually is, the core of a person's entire existence and personality.

@SaraForTexLege @HoustonSecular It's not a "multi-faith organization." It's a "leave your faith at the door" organization that only extends a friendly hand towards those who are willing to water down their faith to the point where it's ineffectual. Religious people are religious 24/7, & that irks y'all no end.

You know what the most disturbing thing about these debates is? No one EVER mentions the woman. In all the debates on when does life begin, and are we going with a philosophical definition, or a religious definition, or a scientific definition? Not one damn argument mentions the woman WHO HAS TO LITERALLY SACRIFICE HER BODY to perform this task. Not a single consideration. Not even as an afterthought. Our physical labor is theirs to claim. Our free will is stolen by the state. We are forced to provide labor in support of another person, under the threat of penalty by the state. Forced labor under threat of penalty by the state. Screw your religion, your philosophy and your scientific idea on what you can or cannot FORCE me to use MY body for. WOMEN ARE NOT YOUR SLAVES.

@AlBuffalo2nite @SaraForTexLege @micyoung75 Everything that you said, with the exception of “not to purge God from public life”, is wrong. And it’s been proven so over & over again. When the state uses its power to enforce religion (Christianity in our case), that’s Christian Nationalism - unconstitutional & unAmerican.

“Secular Houston”? Let’s translate that honestly. It means removing the moral framework that built this nation while pretending it’s about “freedom.” The founders never intended government to be hostile to faith. They intended to prevent a state-run church, not to purge God from public life. The phrase “separation of church and state” doesn’t even appear in the Constitution. What it actually says is that government shall not prohibit the free exercise of religion. America’s founding principles, laws, and culture were shaped by biblical morality… the very thing secular activists now want erased. When politicians celebrate “secular endorsements,” they’re really signaling that they believe society can function without the moral foundation that sustained it for centuries. History shows what happens when nations abandon that foundation. It isn’t progress. It’s decay. #SilentMajoritySpeaks #AStoneGroove

Two possible things going on here: 1) Trump, the man-child, was manipulated into this war by people around him with their own political (Rubio), financial (Witkoff/Kushner), religious (Hegseth) agendas. 2) Trump is trying to divert the blame for this unpopular war onto others.

Congratulations to my friend and colleague, @jamestalarico! Looking forward to hitting the trail together while the GOP shreds itself apart - from the US Senate to the RRC primary runoffs.
