✍️ Eljo #MorpurgoMedia

Een "eerste" toot is goud waard.

(Hier sinds 10\2022 onder oud account)

Ik zal me even #voorstellen. 👋

Geboren te #Amsterdam, woont in #Nederland, maar voelt zich #wereldburger.

Probeert niet in hokjes te denken.

Neemt zichzelf soms serieus als #columnist, #schrijver van #blogs en #fotograaf. Houd zich bezig met #Linux for Dummies.

Hij gaat onder de naam Eljo vanaf ´66 voor vrienden door het leven.

Meer volgt op aanvraag.

Anti-abortion attorneys ascend federal government ranks with Christian right legal training

The conservative Christian law firm Alliance Defending Freedom’s expansive ties include  federal judges and most recently Speaker of the House

The nonprofit law firm that helped Mississippi solicitor general Scott Stewart argue and win the #Dobbs case
— the Alliance Defending Freedom
— has worked for three decades to change laws to fit an explicitly #conservative #Christian worldview when it comes to reproductive and family issues,
💥with a focus on ending legal abortion and limiting trans rights. 💥
#ADF’s systematic strategy to effect generational changes, according to its website,
includes 🔹targeted litigation and legal training. 🔹
Constitutional legal experts who study the religious right say the anti-abortion movement’s best chance of keeping unpopular abortion bans on the books is through its growing 🔸network of conservative attorneys and judges 🔸cultivated by ADF and allied Christian law firms and law schools.
ADF has employed and trained thousands of like-minded conservative Christian attorneys,
some of whom have climbed the highest rungs of power,
including new U.S. Speaker of the House #Mike #Johnson (R-Louisiana) and several federal appellate #judges, state house #representatives, a former #attorney #general, and a conservative New York Times #opinion #columnist.

Some of ADF’s trainees have gone on to #clerk for #Alito and fellow conservative Justice Amy #Coney #Barrett, according to a recent New Yorker report.
“They know that their ideology is unpopular, and in many cases, anti-equality or even downright unconstitutional,”
constitutional attorney Andrew L. Seidel told States Newsroom, about ADF.
(He is the vice president of strategic communications for the progressive group Americans United for the Separation of Church and State and has written books about the religious right movement. )
🔥“They are trying to build up these networks to capture the courts, to capture the legal professions.
👉Because they can’t win otherwise.”

The story behind #SteveScalise and #DavidDuke that helped end his #bid for #speaker.

That story also surfaced a quote involving #DavidDuke that has long been used against Scalise — and one which Mace cited Wednesday. Longtime #Louisiana #politicalreporter and #columnist #StephanieGrace said Scalise in their first meeting years earlier had “told me he was like (#KKK leader) #DavidDuke without the #baggage.”
