The White House moves to reinforce school prayer protections and announces other rule changes that could allow religious groups to mix religious activities with federally funded activities.

. While playing to his base, Trump’s rules are concerning to LGBTQ groups, which see them as possibly giving religious groups license to discriminate.

The rules are primarily aimed at forcing states to get rid of prohibitions against awarding grant money to religious groups. But they were required to separate those programs from churches’ religious activities in an effort to uphold the constitutional separation of church and state. Those requirements remain but the Trump administration has tried to weaken their enforcement in states or through federal agencies that distribute grant money.

Trump on Thursday blamed what he called “a growing totalitarian impulse on the far left that seeks to punish restrict and even prohibit religious expression.” But the administration has generally sided with religious groups in cases involving anti-discrimination laws. And opponents of the new rules point out that many communities lack options for social services that are not church-run.

Any comments peterthiel ?

How many of these religious groups have thrown people off of buildings based on their sexual preference?

I remember something about a separation between state and church somewhere in the constitution or am I completely wrong. Isn't our supreme nutjob suppose to not show favor of any sort.

And?

Not pandering to every loud tiny minority group. Bye bye socialist equality of outcomes. MediaBias WalkAwayFromDemocratSocialists

Every single day, another insult, another instance of pandering to hypocrites, another potential injury to those least able to defend themselves from bias. This man is a menace.

‘What the Hell, This Is a Big Celebration’: Trump Touts Trade Deal at White HousePresident Trump’s ceremony to celebrate the signing of the China-U.S. trade deal was a tour-de-force of back-patting. It featured shout-outs, inside jokes and ad hoc riffs at lawmakers, administration aides and business executives. 👍🏼👍🏼🇺🇸🇺🇸 Congratulations President Trump on getting China to sign this new deal. Let’s move forward. 🇺🇸 They sent a Vice Premier who is very low on the hierarchy to sign with Trump. I think it's an insult. Trump should let Lighthizer signed on his behalf.

Impeachment and a path to redemption for TrumpPresident Trump’s most effective path forward, not only to prevail in the impeachment proceedings but to end this ordeal and create a strong position from which to govern, is to follow the Clinton model rather than the Nixon path. The democrats are impeaching Trump because he’s exposing the failure of the Obama years. 44 was not a good president, folks. The quicker you stop pretending he was, the better off we all will he. Trump has never asked God for forgiveness for a single sin, so virtually no chance he'd admit any wrongdoing to America.
