"American Christians can’t pretend we haven’t seen what our leaders have done this spring. Ours is no longer a government interested in haggling over the finer points of just war theory, a Scripture-shaped standard of ethical conduct in warfare, to defend a military intervention."

Threatening Profound Evil Trivializes That Evil
President Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth speak often of Christianity—but they seem to have no interest in its vision for just warfare.Justin R. Hawkins (Christianity Today)
The #Trump admin plans to crack down on networks it claims help #pregnant #women lie on #visa applications in order to secure #US #citizenship for their US born babies, an issue that Trump has highlighted to justify his attempts to restrict #BirthrightCitizenship.

In an internal email sent Thursday & reviewed by Reuters, #ICE ordered investigative agents around the country to focus on a new “Birth Tourism Initiative.” The operation will purportedly seek to root out supposed networks that help pregnant foreign nationals come to the #US to give birth so their #children can receive #citizenship, it said.

#Trump, a “#Republican”, has kicked off an aggressive push to reduce both legal & illegal #immigration after retaking office in January 2025. His admin has used the threat of “birth tourism” as a rationale for attempting to restrict the Constitutionally granted right of #citizenship to #children born on #US soil.

Exclusive: #ICE launches new effort to uncover #US ‘birth tourism schemes’ despite the fact that #SCOTUS has yet to rule on the constitutionality of the #Trump #ExecutiveOrder on #BirthrightCitizenship & that a majority of the justices appeared skeptical of the admin’s arguments.

"We are witnessing a profound shift in the way power is exercised and performative violence is consumed. On one of the holiest days of the Christian calendar—Easter—the discourse was not one of resurrection and hope, but of 'war crimes' and 'hell.'”

#SCOTUS is taking up one of the term’s most consequential cases∶ Trump’s #ExecutiveOrder on #BirthrightCitizenship, declaring that #children born to parents who are in the #US illegally or temporarily are not US citizens.
#Trump is in attendance. He’s the first
sitting president to attend oral arguments at the nation’s highest court.

The #BirthrightCitizenship order, which #Trump signed on Jan 20, 2025, the first day of his second term, is part of his #Republican admin’s broad #immigration crackdown.
EVERY lower court that has considered the issue has found the order #illegal & prevented it from taking effect. A definitive ruling by #SCOTUS is expected by early summer.

Predictably, #ClarenceThomas sounds most open to the #Trump admin’s position.
Thomas recounts that the aim of the 14th amendment was to make citizens of the freed slaves. “How much of the debates around the 14 Amendment had anything to do with immigration?”

"Never before has an administration so openly glorified outright killing as the current White House propaganda machine does with its obscene snuff videos of the Iran war and the destruction of small boats.
Unlike with fascism in the 20th century, there is no attempt to promote or symbolically reward self-sacrifice –" (continued in /3)
(continued from /2)
"it is just video game-style killing at a distance, justified not with strategic objectives, but with seemingly uncontrollable emotions ('fury' and a thirst for vengeance). And all accompanied by open admissions that basic laws of warfare will be broken."
"It seems that Hegseth and company are also promoting an ultimately nihilist cult of death. But it celebrates killing by pressing a button thousands of miles away; meanwhile, America’s own dead are dishonored, as Trump has used their repatriation to display his Maga merch and fundraise off the victims of war."
As Brian Kaylor reports, "Pete Hegseth’s Bible, like his body, is stamped with two Crusader tattoos."
The bible Hegseth used when he was sworn in has the same Crusader cross with which he's tattooed stamped on it, and has the stamp "Deus vult," also tatoooed on Hegseth's body.
As Kaylor notes,
"White supremacists have appropriated Crusader imagery to cast themselves as Christian warriors fighting to drive out Muslims and others in the name of God."

"The death toll in the lawless U.S. campaign against alleged drug-smuggling boats rose to at least 159 on Thursday after a strike in the eastern Pacific killed two people and left one survivor, who was turned over to the Costa Rican Coast Guard, according to the Pentagon. It was the 46th such strike on the high seas."

Trump DOJ Keeps Charging First and Investigating Later
INSIDE: Kilmar Abrego Garcia ... Robert Mueller ... Elon MuskDavid Kurtz (Morning Memo)
Kurtz notes — and this is not beside the point of this thread:
"Elon Musk gave a 💯 to a tweet on his X platform that concluded: 'White solidarity is the only way to survive.'"

"It appears that members of Trump’s cabinet get chosen not despite their endorsements of violence, but because of them. Pete Hegseth was primarily known as a dapper TV host willing to defend war crimes. Markwayne Mullin is apparently still proud of challenging a witness to a fistfight at a Senate hearing; he also refuses to apologize for 'understanding' an assault on fellow senator Rand Paul."

Kai Schwemmer, the new white supremacist leader of the College Republicans, is getting well-deserved attention — for his bigotry and close ties to Nick Fuentes.
What also demands attention here, but is being overlooked by media: like Nick Shirley, whose vile racist videos about Somalis in Minneapolis helped spark Trump's DHS/ICE attacks on that city, Schwemmer is a Mormon from Utah.

"The Protestant denomination that loved Donald Trump the most in 2024?
Easily the Assemblies of God.
He received 88% of their votes.
There was only one majority white denomination that clearly favored Kamala Harris:
Episcopalians."

"Wilson's remarks at the Pentagon assured the audience that their battles were God’s battles, that God would be their protector just as he was for figures from scripture like Noah and David. He suggested that God’s people, having searched for the enemy, now realize they are surrounded—the implication presumably being that the real enemy is other Americans."

"They would limit the ability of believers of other faiths—including non-Protestant Christians—to publicly practice their faith; Wilson recently said on a podcast that the theocratic society he envisions would ban mosques from broadcasting calls to prayer and prohibit Catholic parades honoring the Virgin Mary."

"not merely condoning a form of women’s submission in marriage that has been common in evangelicalism, but also severely limiting leadership roles in the church and in government and society to men only. …

"For them, a Christian nation would be governed directly by biblical law, and in every area of of its common life and culture it would be shaped by a comprehensive 'biblical world and life view.'
A Christian nation, in his account, is a nation in which there is no area of life and culture where the Bible is not the ultimate authority."
