👀MAGA candidate for Pa. lieutenant governor [Teddy Daniels], who was in DC on January 6, “ordered to stay away from home after wife alleges physical, mental abuse” - pennlive.com#papol 1/ pennlive.com/politics/2022/…
I’ve posted about Teddy Daniels more than I remembered. He’s “in the MAGA mix” alright. 2/
13/ Where was Teddy Daniels when Trump made that bizarre visit to Old Forge, PA on 8/20/20? Did he and/or Frank Scavo & others meet w/ Trump to organize the insurrection? Will anyone even ask? @January6thCmte@RepRaskin nationaljournal.com/s/709328/many-…

All three of these highly influential religious zealots are on the Board of Governors of the Council for National Policy (CNP), the Christian Right’s umbrella organization. The Christofascist assault is coordinated. #LeonardLeo #MichaelFarris #KevinRoberts 1/
Seeing as everyone is discussing Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts, here’s a reminder that he & Claremont president Ryan Williams spearheaded the “79 days” report, which “war gamed” a 2020 scenario where MAGA sheriffs might deputize Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, & 3%ers. 1/
CNP Board of Governors member Leonard Leo “participated in the Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, & Barrett …selection & confirmation process” AND “outside efforts in support of the Roberts & Alito …confirmations,” per the Catholic Information Center (whose board includes Leo). 1/ cicdc.org/speakers/leona…
2/ CNP = Council for National Policy, the Christian Right’s umbrella organization.
WTF? The right wing SCOTUS majority held that Trump is immune re: claims that he directed the DOJ to conduct knowingly sham investigations b4 admitting that, “TRUE THERE IS NO PRESIDENTIAL IMMUNITY CLAUSE IN THE CONSTITUTION…” (See pp. 37-38) Remember how they reversed Roe v Wade, emphasizing that the constitution includes no explicit reference to abortion? 1/ supremecourt.gov/opinions/23pdf…
2/ From pp. 37-38
3/ What further blows my mind is that the right wing SCOTUS majority even manufactured a three prong test for this manufactured right to presidential immunity. Remember how right wingers complained incessantly about Roe v Wade’s three trimester approach for abortion rights?
Holy astroturf. The fundamentalist Christian takeover of the Carroll ISD school board in Southlake, TX included Hannah Smith —an alum of the Becket Fund (whose board includes Leonard Leo), protege of Leo ally Robert George, & former clerk of Leo pals Clarence Thomas & Alito. 1/
2/ The Daily Signal is the Heritage Foundation’s media arm. Heritage’s board includes Leonard Leo ally Robert George. dailysignal.com/2021/06/10/she…
