Hasan suggests Pinesap could say he's a fascist & Pinesap quite explicitly responds (with a smile on his face), "Yeah, I am." This is not an "attempt to label Pinesap a Fascist," it's Pinesap enthusiastically endorsing the label (to the applause of several others in the room).
Mehdi Hasan attempts to label Pinesap a Fascist during a debate on Jubilee. Pinesap tells him he doesn't care about being called a Nazi Mehdi then says "I don't debate Fascists"
This is a lie. Rep. @jamestalarico never said there was no such basis to oppose abortion. His exact words were "this idea that to be a Christian means you have to be anti-gay & anti-abortion––there really is no historical, theological, biblical basis for that opinion."
Texas State Representative @jamestalarico told Rogan that there is no Biblical or historical basis for Christians to oppose abortion. He quotes the Magnificat and uses Mary's "fiat" to justify abortion. Evil.

Oh, my gosh! Why have so many golfers throughout the history of playing golf so often worn tape on their fingers & even on other parts of their body?!? They’re all involved!!
Did we ever find out what happened to Obama’s hands? The day after his chef drowned in his pond, he shows up with bandaged fingers, no explanation. And we’re just supposed to act like that’s normal?

This is a lie. These protests are urging Zelensky to veto a proposed law that would weaken Ukraine's anti-corruption institutions. Rep. Greene is lying because she is an agent of the single most corrupt individual to ever occupy the White House. kyivindependent.com/we-know-how-to…
Huge protests erupt in Kyiv against Ukrainian President Zelensky as he is a dictator and refuses to make a peace deal and end the war. Good for the Ukrainian people! Throw him out of office! And America must STOP funding and sending weapons!!!
Looking forward to checking out Christopher Skinner's newest book! @ZonderAcademic

Well (much like 2024) the 2025 biblical studies job market opens up with a bang(er): Princeton Theological Seminary seeks a scholar of the New Testament at the rank of tenure-track assistant professor! @ptseminary @SBLStudents ptsem.edu/wp-content/upl…
This is the logical end of MAGA, as we’ve been warning for literally a decade. It only took some time for thought leaders to gin up enough support to be able say these things in public without fear of condemnation. Please, get out of MAGA while you can. tiktok.com/t/ZP8hcRyBk/
Why can’t I just stop lying? #maklelan2798 youtu.be/uXNuPcasbqw
Identity politics govern both religious & political beliefs. If you’re not critically interrogating your own subconscious identity politics (this person clearly isn’t), you’re just blithely allowing religion & politics to serve the interests of those identity politics.
I’m Christian first. Not my political beliefs. I’m a Christian. Christ informs my political beliefs.
