@overdramatique That’s the least of it. She’s been co-opting marginalized identities that no one can disprove and in our internet culture, she knows will gain her social capital and a shield from the people who are actually in those communities. She’s intersectional Rachel Dolezal.
I’m a retired pastor. We are serious Christians. Our daughter is a pastor. We abhor White Christian Nationalism. My wonderful faithful pastor is a married gay man raising a child I baptized. We hate nobody, because our God hates no one. Hate and fear are bad for us!
Christian nationalist symbols were especially prominent at the January 6 insurrection, prompting Interfaith Alliance to insist that this ideology is incompatible with democracy and religious freedom.

At a briefing on Christian nationalism on the Hill this morning, organized by Interfaith Alliance.
Jan 6 committee member Rep. Jamie Raskin is slated to speak, but organizers say he is currently on the House floor, so unclear if he will appear.
@raushenbush: "I also oppose Christian Nationalism as my patriotic duty as an American who is working, as James Baldwin put it, to achieve our country through the project of democracy for and by the people."
.@WajahatAli: "My story is very unremarkable precisely because it is so common in America…And yet my story is under threat due to Christian nationalism: a perverse ideology of cruelty and white supremacy."
STARTING NOW: We’re gathered with leading experts on Capitol Hill to examine the rising threat of Christian nationalism ahead of the midterms.
Join our conversation alongside @RepRaskin, @WajahatAli, @tayhloroleman, @Cizmik_Change, and @interfaithiowa!

Christian nationalism is on the ballot, and people of all faiths and none must come together to resist this ideology and protect our democracy.

Joined the at @intrfthalliance event at Capitol today to join a movement to protect democracy in America. Christians are my brothers & sisters & I want them to ❤️ me as I love them- to include me as I include them. @RepRaskin supporting democracy & freedoms, we so ❤️. #Christian
Excited to be at @intrfthalliance event at Capitol today discussing #ChristianNationalism and Midterms. I’m seeing faith groups rallying everywhere to confront this misrepresentation of our faith alongside congresspeople like @RepRaskin to save democracy
Joe Biden needed to make this speech. Americans needed him to stand up for democracy & against the MAGA Republicans who, as he put it, operate on "fear, division & darkness," who "embrace anger and thrive on chaos." We needed him to assert we can "stop the assault on democracy."
