3/ Nor have they prioritized requiring backup paper poll books for electronic poll books, which have become much more popular in recent years.
4/ Plus, they blocked the #SAFEAct in 2020, which would have banned paperless voting machines and internet connectivity to voting systems & required robust manual audits for all federal races. axios.com/gop-senator-el…
Whoa. Harrison Butker co-founded a company called MDKeller with Catholic influencer Austin Wright who had a fellowship at the Leonine Forum where Leonard Leo sits on the Board of Directors. h/t @srabwilli (on TikTok). 1/ leonineforum.org/testimonies-up…
2/ Here's an archived link to the "Team" members page of MDKeller's website, which was scrubbed after @srabwilli posted about it. web.archive.org/web/2024011001…
Seems that Harrison Butker & Catholic influencer Austin Wright co-founded a company called MDKeller whose “team” includes people w/ ties to the Heritage Foundation (Project 2025), the Federalist Society (tied to Leonard Leo), Catholic University (tied to Leonard Leo), & the Blackstone Legal Fellowship (tied to the Alliance Defending Freedom). Portions of MDKeller’s website were scrubbed today or yesterday after a social media user posted about it. 1/
Evangelist Kirk Cameron & Alliance Defending Freedom lawyer Erin Hawley (Josh Hawley’s wife) openly discuss the Christian Right’s post-Roe plan to lay the groundwork for SCOTUS to ban abortion in all 50 states on the basis that a fetus is a “person” under the 14th Amendment. 1/
2/ Here’s where I got the clip in post 1.
3/ Erin Hawley is a Yale law school graduate. Here, her alma mater writes that Hawley has clerked for SCOTUS justice John Roberts, that she helped defeat Roe v Wade (in the Dobbs case) and that she is the lead counsel in the abortion pill case currently pending before SCOTUS. yaledailynews.com/blog/2024/04/0…
Even after the GOP stole that SCOTUS seat from Obama, the Christian Right did not have enough SCOTUS justices to reverse Roe. This changed w/ the “surprise” retirement of Justice Kennedy who had often voted to support abortion rights, per Christian Right lawyer Josh Bursch. 1/
John Bursch is an attorney w/ the Alliance Defending Freedom, which helped lead the effort to overturn Roe. Here’s where I got the clip in post 1. It’s from an interview of Bursch by the Catholic Information Center where Leonard Leo sits on the board. 2/
3/ What Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) attorney John Bursch didn’t mention is that the ADF drafted the Mississippi law that led to the Dobbs case on which the ADF then served as “silent co-counsel.” Like a well-oiled machine.
Attorney Josh Craddock—a darling of the Federalist Society (Leonard Leo)—& Lila Rose discuss plans to ban abortion in all 50 states. They include: 1. Congress; 2. POTUS & federal agencies (see Project 2025); 3. State lawmakers; 4. SCOTUS; 5. Amending the Constitution. 1/
