On the 4th of July, Hobby Lobby ran a full-page ad in the Oregon @registerguard which argues that America should be a Christian nation, run by Christians. There were a LOT of papers with this propaganda.

This is antithetical to the US Constitution. 🧵
Hobby Lobby also ran this ad in the Sunday @latimes
Cost: ~$100,000

Hobby Lobby called for America to be run by Christians in the Sunday @washingtonpost
Cost: ~$100,000

Hobby Lobby called for a theocracy in the Sunday @BostonGlobe
Cost: ~$105,000

Easier to read this screen capture of the Hobby Lobby call for a Christian United States
Hobby Lobby ran Christian propaganda in the @DenverPost

Apparently Hobby Lobby ran its ‘America is a Christian nation’ propaganda in the @nytimes on July 1st. Probably because Sunday ad is premium price.

Cost: ~$210,000

The Hobby Lobby ‘Christian nation’ propaganda ran in the @PhillyInquirer

And the Portland @Oregonian also ran the full-page Hobby Hobby ‘Christian nation’ propaganda

/ 9
Freedom From Religion Foundation ran a rebuttal to the Hobby Lobby propaganda, which apparently is an annual event. @FFRF

Fully appropriate to remind the world that Hobby Lobby owners stole (or bought stolen) thousands of ancient artifacts from Iraq

Also, this definitely isn’t the first bit of Hobby Lobby propaganda. The company keeps an archive of its ‘Christian nation’ ads. It calls them “holiday messages.”

Kids, this is exactly why the GOP wants to control how history is taught in schools.

Song birds are dying throughout the mid-Atlantic, midwest, and southeast.

Thousands of sick and dying birds have been reported in
DC, DE, FL, IL, IN, MD, KY, NJ, OH, PA, TN, VA, WV

A 🧵

cc @CT_Bergstrom
In late May, wildlife managers in Washington D.C., Kentucky, Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia “began receiving reports of sick and dying birds with eye swelling and crusty discharge, as well as neurological signs.”

usgs.gov/news/updated-i…
The most common clinical symptoms include discharge and/or crusting around the eyes, eye lesions, and/or neurologic signs such as falling over or head tremors.

Residents are being asked to take down bird feeders and bird baths (to minimize congregating - physical distancing).

In @USATODAY, @JoeTrippi makes the most compelling argument that I have seen for ostracizing authoritarian Trump supporters, calling out their lies & challenging ourselves to think outside of the “two party system” that is the air that we breathe.
TY, Joe. We need you for 2022.
News media leadership need to heed @JoeTrippi’s warning. Trump may not have been elected in 2016 had the political chattering class put democracy over snark and clicks. He lost in 2020 despite news orgs learning little from the prior five years.
The flurry of headlines around Trump’s frivolous and fruitless lawsuits this week illustrate how news organizations continue to treat Trump as though he were credible.

Dear @washingtonpost et al

Using non-contextual, straight news headlines about Trump is just one of the ways news media helped him win in 2016. Y’all STILL haven’t learned a darn thing. He will do ANYTHING to get a red meat headline for the base.
On June 30, a federal judge blocked a Florida law that would penalize social media companies for blocking a politician’s post for violating terms of service. Former president Donald Trump filed similar lawsuits today. This tactic has never been upheld in court.

#FIXEDTHATFORYOU
Any and every story about Trump must follow the #truthsandwich model @jayrosen_nyu @GeorgeLakoff

Stop putting his lies in the hede and lede.

In this case, @washingtonpost gives his claim the weight of truth by repeating it verbatim 🤦🏼‍♀️

Mike Lindell (the MyPillow guy) and Michael Flynn (the pardon=guilty guy) AGAIN pose with an insane 'path to Trump' whiteboard that has an arrow from the top implying Trump is Jesus and is bordered on the left an excerpt from Ephesians, chapter 1.
📷@patriottakes
On Tuesday, Flynn posted an picture of himself and Lindell to his Telegram account in front of this whiteboard.
Telegram was created by two Russian brothers and has been called a “safe haven” for white supremacists by the Anti-Defamation League.

THIS Silverado did NOT cut off the semi, @infamous_dinero

This 2016 FATALITY accident was on I20 in GA. The truck driver and passenger were killed, not at fault.

Semi #1 ran into the back of semi #2. The 1st and 2nd semi ran over the silver pickup.
The 2nd ran into a 3rd semi that ran into a FOURTH semi.

The victims: Larry Donnell Adams, 53, of Benton, Louisiana, and Peggy O'Neal, 51, of Bossier City, Louisiana.

You should delete the damn tweet, @infamous_dinero

Hell, the erroneously labeled image you just shared, @infamous_dinero, was debunked in SEPTEMBER 2016. @TwitterSupport WHY DO YOU ALLOW CRAP LIKE THIS TO PROLIFERATE?

So … @PringleforAL01 is NOT in a class by himself. These GOP “leaders” have no idea what critical race theory (#CRT) might be, also.

Rep. Mo Brooks (R-AL) told the Daily Dot that Critical Race Theory is “different things to different people but the bottom line is that it is a distorted view of racism…. [one that is] trying to turn it into a positive…”
😳
Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL):
“there’s a lot of people that have a lot of different definitions.”
