Everyone should know this quote. There was never a “war on Christmas.” The Christian Right’s liberties were never under attack. They claimed otherwise as a ploy to position themselves to force their own extreme version of Christianity down the nation’s throat. #Christofascism 1/
3/ “GARY NORTH (1942-2022) SOUGHT TO DENY RELIGIOUS LIBERTY TO ‘THE ENEMIES OF GOD’ — BUT HE WAS WILLING TO WAIT PATIENTLY FOR THE REVOLUTION TO DEVELOP” by @FredClarkson, 3/29/22 religiondispatches.org/gary-north-194…

6/ North was a founding board member of the Council for National Policy (CNP), an umbrella organization for the Christian Right and wealthy financiers.
7/ The CNP’s members have included such unfortunately influential people as KellyAnne Conway, Steve Bannon, Charlie Kirk, Jack Posobiec, Ali Alexander, Ed Martin, Michael Farris, Morton Blackwell, Newt Gingrich, the Mercers, and members of the DeVos and Prince families.
8/ If you haven’t read this article by @anelsona, then you must. It details the CNP’s heavy hand in the effort to overturn the 2020 election. washingtonspectator.org/nelson-cnp/
12/ CNP members Ed Martin (a close friend of Roger Stone) & Tom Fitton called upon Trump to pardon Stone & Michael Flynn (which Trump did). Martin & Fitton were then heavily involved in efforts to overturn the election, as I reported here 4 @BucksCoBeacon. buckscountybeacon.com/2023/05/part-5…
I endorse this message by @LuluFriesdat. #HandMarkedPaperBallots (with exception for voters with disabilities and those who prefer to mark their ballots with a touchscreen rather than a pen) is the way to go in New York and elsewhere. Touchscreens (such as BMDs) are too risky. 1/

“Several key state officials said no one had warned them about the Russian scheme until the leaked memo from the...NSA, appeared in The Intercept in June 2017. To them, Winner's leak was a form of public service.” 2/ inquirer.com/philly/columni…
Ten days after the Interceot published the NSA report leaked by #RealityWinner, the Senate voted to limit Trump’s power to lift Russia sanctions. 3/ npr.org/2017/06/15/533…
Jackson Lahmeyer, who claims BLM was founded by “witchcraft-practicing lesbians,” founded Pastors for Trump last year. He is a close associate of Mike Flynn. The MAGA movement is saturated in Christo-fascism. #Christofascism 1/
3/ Lahmeyer held a Pastors for Trump event at Trump, Doral last month. The promotional graphic for the event had Mike Flynn & Roger Stone front and center.
Jenna Ellis is a dangerous Christo-fascist. #Christofascism 1/
In 2020, Doug Mastriano advisor Jenna Ellis, an attorney, used a “chopped up video to falsely suggest that election workers in Georgia had told observers to go home so that they could retrieve fake ballots from under a table.” 2/ buckscountybeacon.com/2022/11/united…
3/ Jenna Ellis probably told herself that lying for God is good. #Christofascism
Harrisburg, PA’s Life Center Ministries is a part of Che Ahn’s ministry. Ahn is an Apostle in the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR), which promotes dominionism, the idea that Christians have a Godly mandate to control all aspects of government & culture. #Christofascism 1/
3/ This is NAR Apostle Che Ahn in Brazil with other NAR leaders in 2021. The NAR’s reach and dominionist ambitions are global. instagram.com/p/CVDH1xmFCEB/…
“‘Some of their most fanatical supernatural beliefs have been mainstreamed into the maga movement, such as the notions that Democrats are demonic or engaged in witchcraft,’ Jennifer Cohn, an election-security advocate, told me.” #Christofascism 1/ newyorker.com/magazine/2022/…
“In November, 2020, Abby Abildness, the state director of Pennsylvania’s Prayer Caucus and an ‘apostle’ with the New Apostolic Reformation, a network of pastors, hosted a series of “Jericho marches”—religious precursors to the insurrection.” 3/
