Trump said that instead of a separation of church and state, he will bring “religion back to our country.”
Donald Trump signed an executive order yesterday establishing a “religious liberty commission” at the Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate and present strategies to eliminate “threats to domestic religious liberty.”
During his comments on the order, Trump said that he doesn’t know if there’s a separation of church and state and that we should “forget about that for one time.”
Why does this new Religious Liberty Commission have an expiration date of July 4, 2026?
And DOGE does too.
I knew it was going to be bad, but I wasn’t expecting them to go “the founding fathers were woke” so soon, they must be really confident about their grip on their brainwashed base.
I’m an exvangelical atheist and I do find myself wishing this whole administration would go rot in hell, so I guess you could say in some small way they’ve brought religion back to my life.
But seriously, this is fucked.
Traitor
Fascism is its own religion.
I said to a mate a while ago that I thought that trump, (really the republicans), were possibly trying to overturn the enlightenment, and make the country in to a feudal society. Restore the world of gods and kings.
At the time it was a bit of a joke, but increasingly I’m more concerned about it.

We need to get religion out of society altogether
I agree with you, but i would just remove the harmful ones that indoctrinate from birth, promote segregation, treat humans as property and have legal immunity just because the justice system doesn’t want to meddle with the mess that is Christian paedophilia and familial abuse. The ones that don’t intend to force their belief system onto people and trust that their existence will bring people that are interested, rather than unsolicited house calls or screaming at strangers about their idea of a deity. That’s attractive…
Here ya go: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_religion
Homie is basically trying bring back everything American colonists rebelled against. Kings, state religion, massive tariffs. The only missing piece is tea.
That’s the one good piece. :(
… liberation of slaves…
So why aren’t the colonists rebelling?
They kinda are. Do you think every single colonist was out in the streets rebelling? No it was a percent. And there is a healyhy percent protesting right now. The revelution also didn’t happen overnight. It took time to build momentum.
It was 5 years between the Boston Massacre (March 1770) and the first shot of the American Revolution (April 1775).
Also no one’s reporting on it because the oligarch owned media is the enemy of the people
I see plenty of reports about the protests. They just aren’t on fox news, which is fine. People watching that are a lost cause anyway.
I’m waiting until some DOGE or other trump goon just literally destroys the Constitution papers, or at least attempts to.
Ooops, we were installing a trump shrine and moving some old documents we didn’t need people to see anymore and it just kinda fell apart.
You never had separation of church and state.
Only on paper.Yeah it’s kinda wacky how people believe in this kind of civil mythology.
Americans especially love their civil religion.
Their events and memorials are cringe AF.
Bombastic, pretentious and grotesque narcissism drenched in a sauce of cheap sentiment.
Where the population can come together and celebrate their Americanness masturbating to an enormous stars and stripes.
Forget…good thing we have it written down in a document.
They are just as selective with that document as they are with the bible.
Because that has mattered so much to this administration and those sitting on the SCOTUS bench.
A document that is being ignored
It’s in dire need of an overhaul anyway
But as it stands, it’s still the law. The Tangerine Toddler doesn’t care about the law though, nor do his cultists
It’s in dire need of an overhaul anyway
Monkey’s paw curls
Yeah,
I have little faith that it wouldn’t be superseded by something even more shitty
if only that mattered to republicans. Heck they don’t even respect things their own party did previously like fighting to free the slaves or the national parks.
Blessed be the fruit
Actually that’s more Elon’s shtick
Mr we have birthrate issue and proceeds to have sons.
Actually a good meme there.
Trump’s actually great at good governance. All one has to do is carefully listen to his suggestions and then do the exact opposite, and before you know it: Presto! Well-functioning highly-educated modern country with a balanced budget and booming economy.
All through Soviet times people have been making jokes pretty much exactly like this. It’s wild.
Oh fuck no.
