(Reuters) -U.S. President Donald Trump said on Thursday he would create a White House faith office and direct Attorney General Pam Bondi to lead a task force on eradicating what he called anti-Christian bias within the federal government. Trump delivered remarks at the National Prayer Breakfast at the U.S. Capitol and used his speech to call for "unity", telling lawmakers his relationship with religion has "changed" after a pair of failed assassination attempts last year. At a second prayer breakfast in Washington, Trump struck a more partisan tone, took a victory lap for getting "rid of woke over the last two weeks" and announced steps to protect Christians from what he said was religious discrimination.

    Wow America! You really are doing everything in your hand to become a new medieval monarchy.

    You have the absolutist king, the feudal lords, the hate towards any progress…

    You were missing the inquisition. WERE.

    Remember how the radical right, most especially of the more Randroid type was saying that talking about Gilead states was hyperbole and hysterical, etc…?

    Then they reversed 50 years of Roe. And now this insane piece of shit is back in the office, throwing red meat to the crazies that think this is a xtian nation (or that it should be one).
