Real Christian vs. Faux Christian! Who will they subjugate if they had their way and the US became white,straight, and Faux Christian?

Talarico showed logic an intelligens more than any random religion. Not everyones cup of tea.

@jamestalarico.bsky.social should be out on the national stage more, but he's very, very, very busy in Texas. People should be watching and taking notes.

He def needs more press. He’s a bright light in the darkness of Texas.

Thanks, I didn’t know he was here. I been going to the dark side to see his posts

Beautiful!

They want to teach the Ten Commandments in schools? How about teaching the constitution or the UN charta or human rights??

Whoops indeed! It seems like the prosperity gospel crowd is more interested in editing their own commandments than actually following them.

They voted despite being called out on their hypocrisy. And in violation of the separation of Church from State.

Make reading Aesop’ Fables required reading. These dimwit conservative politicians might actually learn something. All are free from religion.

Interestingly, the Ten Commandments aren’t meant for non-Jewish people. To take them out of context is questionable at best. You don’t see Jews touting the importance of putting them everywhere. I think we should take the lead from those to whom it belongs.

my favorite guy!

I read the part about schools having to accept and display any privately donated posters that meet the size requirements. I think we should start printing huge posters of LGBQ+ people in full Pride Month mode holding the commandments and send them to Texas schools!

bad news, the bill specifically says only the 10 commandments can be displayed, regardless of what else is donated.

Maybe the 10 Commandments can be printed with a rainbow background ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

That's why you'd have someone holding them in the pic. Imagine a beautiful drag queen holding Moses's tables which are legible by an average sighted person from across the room!

.... okay that's actually brilliant, you're hired

When will the "conservative Christian" learn there is a reason for the separation of church and state. You want a church sponsored state, go to Iran. But let's go by the Bible, cheating on your husband, MTG, you get stoned to death. Don't force YOUR religious bullshit on me when you don't believe.

It's great but where is the "education and religion should be kept apart according to the constitution.

"Congress shall pass no law respecting an establishment of religion" seems pretty clear that our laws are NOT based on the 10 commandments and trying to remake America into a Christian theocracy is in direct contradiction of our actual judicial heritage

I know, but I wonder how it is you hear this argument, well this law to be exact, in the debate over there?

Taco has broken almost every one himself and has encouraged and coaxed others to break all ten. Posting them in every classroom is as disingenuous as it is divisive when you think adhere to the actual principles of religious freedom to worship as one wishes.

I'm sure they'll be expelling this democrat soon, if not before they pass this bill with a veto proof majority [not sure if completely joking]

Her Oath and the First Amendment are at a crossroads... The Freedom of Religion means I'm not obliged to follow your religion. 1st Amendment is clear. History she refuses to accept. Nowhere in the Constitution does it mention: God, Bible, 10 Commandments, Christian, or Jew.

She had to stop and go through her papers to look up what the 4th commandment is.

"You will obey these commandments, ignore the fact we break them all the time, you must obey them though, because we say so!"

Hypocrites about EVERYTHING!

he should have pointed out that she was breaking the 9th commandment when she claimed the bill was about "honoring our legislative & judicial heritage." this country was not built on Christianity and this bill is purely about indoctrinating children.

Hypocrisy in politics??? Unheard of! Epic takedown of a ridiculous woman trying to defend an incorrect assertion—and failing miserably. James revealed her as the hypocrite she is…beautifully.

So, after looking at what the 10 commandments are, I can only presume that making the displaying them in a Texas classroom by law to be an ironical, Dadaesque, artistic statement.

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻🇺🇸

I'll believe that POTUS and the Christian Nationalist are "Doing God's Work" when they stop breaking the Ten Commandments, actually follow Jesus's teachings and distribute their wealth to those in need. And I'm not talking about "acceptable" charities for tax breaks

Great job James! Unfortunately, she and her cohorts are adamant about justifying undoing the separation of church and state. It is a don't do as we do, do as we say. The posting of the Ten Commandments is only the beginning of enforcing their doctrine. Not sure what it is and where it will go!!

Texas Republicans are chronic liars - just look at Chip Roy and Ted “Cancun” Cruz.

You mean Charles Roy and Rafael Cruz. They're opposed to using preferred names, didn't you hear?

The group who worships money and the gospel of prosperity, should post nine commandments. Then remove those other bits like bearing false witness and such. When they’re done removing the rules that they themselves break, how many will be left?

The hypocrisy is monstrous and the religious zeal is performative only. Classic White American Christofascism

“The Seventh commitment is ‘Thou shall not commit adultery.' Do you think members of the legislature should focus on the Ten Commandments rather than telling others to follow them?”

Damn. That was beautiful

This was beautifully handled. Christian nationalists not knowing the 10 commandments is right on brand.

Epic, even though it's literally just saying facts. Sucky ppl hate when you just say facts at them.

They going to quote trumps books now? Mein kamph ?

Lemme guess, after getting shredded she freaked out in a corner and said Jesus loves me?

No, she tried to make the whole thing a non starter

Inyalowda 🙄

🤣 the bad guys! Beltalowda!

Taki. Im ta nating.

Okay 😆

They sure try don't they.

👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Take the time and listen to his entire takedown of his republican colleague. He’s masterful. Reminds me of Pete Buttigieg.

Good Job James! *Outrageous this kind of twisting of "our forefathers" intentions is occurring. Texas needs to fight back harder! (as do other states!)

If there is any Texas Representative more apalling than the woman in this photo.. Would welcome knowing who it could be.... Collin County (TX) growing faster than all of Texas & hopefully the "sleeping wave of voters" is about to awaken & unleash it's power against Trumpian surrogates like her

ew, she's that close to home?!

Thou shalt become twisted in knots idolizing a lying, thieving adulterer who has killed thousands with his plans and doing it on a sabbath

Someone needs to donate the Gen Z versions, printed in rainbow colors: genz.bible/Exodus/20

Rules that everyone ELSE has to obey because THEIR imaginary man in the sky says so. But not them. They’re already good little Christian’s so they can be pure evil and everything will be ok as long as they say sorry on Sundays….if they remember.
