Would He say that loss of privilege constitutes oppression, or that being restricted from treating people in a bigoted manner constitutes anti-Christian bias?

Given Christianity's dominance in U.S., Trump raises eyebrows with anti-Christian bias initiative

I know what the apostle Luke would have said!

KJV

And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?

Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

Most of the [stupid] editorials i've seen in favor of DOGE implicitly assume that it's cutting "waste" rather than needed services. This one straight up lies about that instead.

While we wait for them to repeal the 19th Amendment, here's a lovely roadblock for many women and people without the money and time for a passport.
