Eventually the evangelical right will find sharing the power gives them more freedom, not less. It may take generations yet... when whites are no longer the majority in America. But 2024 or even 2028 will not be it. Be ready for a rocky road ahead.
I am old enough that I might only have a few presidential elections left in my life. I want to tell you that even though I see a rocky road ahead for America, I have never been more optimistic than I am right now. Our leadership is more diverse than ever... every corner of America is being pulled in to have a say in America's future.
John Lewis said it ... 2 steps forward, 1 back. I'm thankful for this step forward.

They should have NO political power in this country, no religion should.
For far too long the IRS has not enforced the rules that churches are required to abide by in order to be tax-exempt. It's time for that to change.

And next, we'll learn what they really are.

Control freaks who hate everyone else.
