Roger Stone’s Florida church, Coral Ridge Ministries, sued the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) after SPLC called it an anti-LGBTQ+ hate group. Coral Ridge asked SCOTUS to review their case, but only one justice felt they shld do so: Clarence Thomas. 1/ thenewcivilrightsmovement.com/2022/06/claren…
3/ Jacob Engels is Roger Stone’s longtime assistant. He’s had a warrant out for his arrest since September. Here’s a photo of the two men outside Coral Ridge.
@granisnark12 5/ Here, Roger Stone says that, although he was baptized Catholic and still considers himself Catholic, he’s now a “parishioner” of the Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church in Fort Lauderdale (the church designated as an anti-LGBTQ+ hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center).
@granisnark12 6/ Far right personality Chris Nelson (an associate of Roger Stone) seems to be a fan of Coral Ridge too. See post 7.

@granisnark12 8/ Eric Metaxas emceed the pro-Trump “Jericho March” rally on 12/12/20 in DC. The rally included Mike Flynn, convicted former Oath Keepers leader Stewart Rhodes, Black Robe Regiment pastor Tim Cook, and other far right religious leaders.
@granisnark12 14/ Here is Thomas’s dissent stating that he would have granted cert to revisit the “actual malice” requirement that public figures must satisfy in order to sue for defamation. supremecourt.gov/opinions/21pdf…

BREAKING: I read the new version of the “Save America Act” so u don’t have to. Here’s my summary. Point 1 is new. It requires that all 50 states send their voter rolls to the DHS to run thru DHS’s faulty “SAVE” voter purge program. Points 6 & 7 are new too. Tell ur Senators #NoOnSAVE 1/
The DOJ has asked states to agree to sign a secret agreement “in connection w/ handing over their full voter files.” The agreement says that “the DOJ will ‘test, analyze, & assess states’ [voter rolls]’ & send each participating state a list of voters who must be removed within 45 days.” 2/5/26 1/
Page 15 of the GOP’s Save America Act wld force all 50 states to submit their voter rolls to the DHS’s centralized voter purge program (called “SAVE”), which they know has had error rates as high as 14% & links to an SSA database that they know was compromised by DOGE. #NoOnSave 1/
2/ Link to the latest version of the Save America Act.
I read the Trump-backed voter suppression bill, the so-called “Save America Act,” so you don’t have to. Here’s my summary. Please tell your Senators to vote NO on this abomination: 202-224-3121. TY. 1/
You can read the Trump-backed “Save America Act” for yourself here. This bill expands upon the original so-called “SAVE Act”. 2/ congress.gov/119/bills/hr72…
3/ Here’s a link to the Brennan Center’s July 2025 report warning about the problems with both the SAVE System and the Social Security Number database when used to purge voters from the voter rolls, as would occur under the “Save America Act”. Everyone should read it. brennancenter.org/our-work/resea…
The SAVE America Act’s list of approved citizenship documentation is at the top. Marriage certificates are *not* included, effectively disenfranchising many of the 69M women whose last names don’t match their birth certificates (not an issue for those who buy expensive passports or have “Enhanced Drivers Licenses” that do match) 1/
The GOP’s “SAVE America Act” has a list of approved citizenship documentation for voters. It includes Real IDs that “indicate citizenship,” which misleads bc most Real IDs *don’t* indicate citizenship & thus won’t suffice.
The list also does *not* include marriage certificates, effectively disenfranchising many of the 69M women whose last names don’t match their birth certificates (not an issue for those w/ passports or Enhanced Drivers Licenses that do match). #NoOnSAVE #ProtectOurVotes 1/
