“A Guardian investigation has revealed that a controversial church whose leader has openly expressed the ambition of creating a ‘theocracy’ in America has accumulated significant influence in the [traditionally “blue”] city of Moscow, Idaho.” 11/2/21
1/ theguardian.com/world/2021/nov…
2/ If you think you are safe from the theocratic assault on America because you live in a “blue” city, you may want to take a look at what Doug Wilson is doing in Moscow, Idaho. Image
3/ It can happen fast. This is from 11/5/19. religionnews.com/2019/11/05/dou…
4/ Even Doug Wilson characterized Moscow, Idaho as a “blue dot.” That didn’t stop him. Image
5/ I included a discussion of Doug Wilson in my recent piece on Michael Farris. Wilson’s church church previously ran Canon Press, which is now part-owned by his son & recently published a book promoting Christian Nationalism. #ShinyHappyPeople buckscountybeacon.com/2023/06/christ… Image

8/ Wilson has also helped produce a Christian (“Classical”) homeschooling curriculum. Image
9/ Doug Wilson’s Christian homeschooling curriculum is as offensive as you might expect. Image
10/ Image
11/ Doug Wilson’s annual “Repairing the Ruins” conference is coming to Pennsylvania on 6/23/23, less than a week before the Moms for Liberty annual summit, which will also take place in PA. Theocrats have targeted the Keystone state. They want it bad.

In 2004, the SPLC profiled Doug Wilson “after he co-authored a pamphlet on slavery, characterizing it as a ‘life of plenty’ 4 Black people. (His co-author was Steven Wilkins, the former director of the white nationalist League of the South.)” 8/1/20 18/ hcn.org/issues/52.8/ex…
Wilson “revels in his controversial profile: In one 2018 video, he casually smoked a cigar while sitting on a burning couch. ‘It’s not the job of the preacher to be a firefighter out in the world,’ he said. ‘We’re supposed to be arsonists.’” 9/

👀The Harvard Journal of Law & Public Policy has published an article by A3P attorney Josh Hammer, Timon Cline, & Yoram Hazony. It calls on SCOTUS to reverse the 1947 Everson case, which held that the Establishment Clause applies to states & requires church-state separation. 1/ Image

2/ The article was published several weeks ago. Here’s the link: journals.law.harvard.edu/jlpp/wp-conten…
3/ I’ve been waiting for the article to drop since last year.

While we were distracted, Trump appointed Josh Craddock—who recently signed a letter urging the DOJ to use the Comstock Act to curtail abortion pill distribution—to serve as Deputy Assistant AG in the DOJ’s OLC. Don’t worry. He probly won’t do much until *after* the midterms… 1/ Image
2/ Josh Craddock announced his appointment on 7/2/25.

Houraney “recalls encountering Epstein at Mar-a-Lago in Jan 1993” & says “Trump asked him to organise a party” w/ “some of his pageant’s finalists…[A]fter an hour at the party, Houraney says, there seemed to be only one other guest: Epstein.” 3/14/20 1/ Image

ICYMI, during the 2016 presidential campaign, “Epstein invited [Peter] Thiel and [Thomas] Barrack to separate meetings with Vitaly Churkin, Russia’s ambassador to the United Nations. **** Thiel, who had several interactions with Epstein starting in 2014, according to the documents, said his Oct 2016 meeting with Epstein & Churkin featured ‘nothing memorable.’
‘I was rather naive,’ Thiel said in an interview, ‘and I didn’t think enough about what Epstein’s agenda might have been.’ Barrack, founder of Colony Capital and a longtime Trump ally, declined to comment.” 1/ archive.is/2023.09.03-150…Image

Tulsi’s report seems to me like an attempt to distract. As I detailed on Medium, Obama stated in Dec 2016 that, “We have not seen evidence of machines being tampered with *** That doesn’t mean that we find every single potential probe of every single voting machine across the country. But we paid a lot of attention to it. We worked with state election officials, etc. And we feel confident that that didn’t occur.” 1/Image
If anything, I felt that Obama and others provided false assurances to the public about the legitimacy of Trump’s win in 2016. I explained my concerns in detail here. 3/ jennycohn1.medium.com/why-have-so-ma…Image

A whistleblower alleged that staff of Palantir—co-founded by Facebook investor/director Peter Thiel—had worked w/ Cambridge Analytica (CA) on the FB data it acquired. But a Palantir spokesperson claimed Palantir never had a relationship w/ CA & never worked on its data. 5/2018 1/ Image

3/ “Thiel, who has not been accused of any wrongdoing, was not immediately available for comment when contacted by CNBC.” Image
