      Unlimited tax free contributions to a Satanic Temple sponsored Super PAC? And I can write off my donations as charitable since they go to a religious organization? It’s fucked up, but that is absolutely what the Evangelicals and Mormons are about to do. Let’s make them regret it.

        To be frank, this is how you fight an administration/party that follows the rules. What this will likely do is just get TST disqualified as a religion and/or disallowed for some bullshit reason.

        Republicans don’t play fair and give fuck-all about rules unless they work in their benefit. That includes Republican politicians, Republican senators, Republican representatives, Republican appointmented judges, and Republican appointed Supreme Court justices.

        While I appreciate the game, the rules are whatever is convenient for Republicans. The game has changed.

    This has been the case though? Churches are political in the distant past, the near past, and the present. They speak about politics and tell their congregation what to do. It’s hard to get a church in trouble for blatantly breaking the law. Now it’s official.
