RICHARD HUDSON, NORTH CAROLINA REPRESENTATIVE INTRODUCES NATIONAL CONCEALED CARRY RECIPROCITY BILL
RICHARD HUDSON, NORTH CAROLINA REPRESENTATIVE INTRODUCES NATIONAL CONCEALED CARRY RECIPROCITY BILL

USA – -(Ammoland.com)- H.R.38, a bill “To amend title 18, United States Code, to provide a means by which nonresidents of a State whose residents may carry concealed firearms may also do so in the State,” was introduced Tuesday by North Carolina
Rep. Richard Hudson. The bill was referred to the House Judiciary Committee for
further action.“It will provide law-abiding citizens the right to conceal carry without worrying about conflicting state codes or onerous civil suits,” Hudson, a member of President-elect Donald Trump’s Second Amendment Coalition noted. “[It will ensure] our Second Amendment right doesn’t disappear when we cross state lines.”
Also known by its short title, the “Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017,’’ the text of the bill, available as a pdf file on Rep. Hudson’s official House website, will codify that a person “carrying a valid license or permit which is issued pursuant to the law of a State and which permits the person to carry a concealed firearm or is entitled to carry a concealed firearm in the State in which the person resides, may possess or carry a concealed handgun … in any State that …. has a statute under which residents of the State may apply for a license or permit to carry a concealed firearm; or … does not prohibit the carrying of concealed firearms by residents of the State for lawful purposes.
“A person who carries or possesses a concealed handgun … may not be arrested or otherwise detained for violation of any law or any rule or regulation of a State or any political subdivision thereof related to the possession, transportation, or carrying of firearms unless there is probable cause to believe that the person is doing so in a manner not provided for by this section,” the bill elaborates. It also provides for “damages or other appropriate relief” for “[a] person who is deprived of any right, privilege, or immunity secured by this section, under color of any statute, ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage of any State. Left intact would be state-specific prohibitions and restrictions on private and state properties.
The National Rifle Association was quick to weigh in with strong support.
“Congressman Hudson’s legislation provides a much needed solution to a real problem for law-abiding gun owners,” Institute for Legislative Action executive director Chris Cox said.
“The Hudson bill would ensure that victims of crime like Pennsylvania concealed carry holder Shaneen Allen do not face decades of imprisonment, merely because they took an erroneous turn into another state,” Erich Pratt, executive director of Gun Owners of America stated in announcing GOA’s “strong support” for the legislation. “This legislation would simplify the puzzling variation of concealed carry across the states and make America safer by letting citizens defend themselves while they travel.”
This is not Hudson’s first attempt at passing such a bill. A similar effort from 2015 was introduced and died without being enacted. With Republicans enjoying majorities in the House and Senate, and with Donald Trump ready to assume the presidency, all strongly enabled by gun owner support, all excuses for not passing the bill this time will ring hollow. But your help is needed.
Understanding that some politicians will still need to be motivated, readers here can get involved by contacting their representatives – at least the ones worth contacting – and letting them know their support and co-sponsorship are expected. This can be done either via their official web pages, or, as more constituents are using, via their social media feeds (such as the way I put my congressman on notice on Twitter). And for those living in districts or states where the representatives are enemies of the right to keep and bear arms, there’s nothing stopping you from contacting representatives in other states who are amenable to being persuaded (and a good indicator for that is their GOA grade).

SARAH PALIN: GET THE U.S. OUT OF THE U.N.
SARAH PALIN: GET THE U.S. OUT OF THE U.N.
BY WARREN MASS
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
Former Alaska Governor and 2008 vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin (shown) has said that the United States should get out of the United Nations and the UN should get out of the United States. Palin made her remarks during a December 29 interview on Breitbart News Daily with Breitbart London Editor-in-Chief Raheem Kassam.
During the interview, Palin spoke extensively about the downside of U.S. membership in the UN and called for Americans to reevaluate our membership in the world body. “I think many of us have called for America to really step up and consider what it is that we are funding and supporting via the UN, and how it works so hard really against U.S. interests, and just saying — look what the U.K. just did,” Palin said, referring to the Brexit vote wherein British citizens voted to leave the European Union.
Palin saw Britain’s Brexit vote as an inspiration for the United States to exit the UN (which some term an “Amexit”): "So when the U.K. made its move, it was just another reason to call yet again for the U.S. to get the heck out of the UN and get the UN out of the U.S. Let’s get going on putting America first so that we can sweep our own porch before telling other nations how to sweep theirs."
During the interview, Palin criticized Secretary of State John Kerry for “his desire to essentially cave to other countries,” and tied Kerry’s internationalist sentiments to the presence of the UN on U.S. soil. She observed:
So the presence of the UN here,
unfortunately, just creates more fertile ground for leftist globalists
like John Kerry to grow in their desire to make the U.S. continue to
fund the lion’s share of this globalist circus — where bad players,
including dictators, they’re going to keep griping, and complaining, and
whining, and attacking us for not bending over backwards enough for
their liking. Unfortunately, that’s what the UN presence here has been
doing,
Though conservatives have long been critical of the UN and have
advocated U.S. withdrawal from the world body, the UN came under
increased condemnation on December 23 after the Security Council passed a
resolution that described Israeli settlements in occupied areas of the
West Bank and East Jerusalem as a “flagrant violation” of international
law. The Obama administration was also criticized by the leaders of
Israel and Israel’s supporters in the United States for failing to use
its veto power on the Security Council to kill the resolution, but
opting to abstain from the vote, thereby allowing it to pass.We concluded our December 27 report about that UN resolution by noting:
Some people believe that when Trump take
office, he will initiate a stronger pro-Israel foreign policy and use
that influence at the UN — perhaps to veto resolutions such as 2334.
However, given the UN’s track record, which has often been as anti-U.S.
as anti-Israel, Trump would do better to begin the process of
withdrawing the United States from the UN entirely.
Two days after that article was posted, Palin, in her interview,
advocated precisely the same thing and suggested two ways the incoming
Trump administration should handle the United Nations:
One is, I called for our next president,
Donald Trump, to call for the unshackling of the political bands tying
us to the UN. By exiting the UN, where injustice is actually rewarded,
we then will be able to uphold America’s reputation as the leader, and
as the kind and compassionate and generous nation that we are — as the
nation sharing values that, when emulated by any other nation, can bring
justice and equal rights to any other nation.
So I call upon President-elect Trump to
lead that charge. But the other way to look at this is, is it really
going to be one person, one leader’s responsibility to do so? Or is this
going to be part of the revolution that we have just seen, that did
elect Trump?
It’s We the People needing to step up and
do it. It’s our government. It’s our money funding the lion’s share of
the globalist circus. It’s We the People needing to rise up and make
this a part of the revolution that we have just so benefited from.
By saying that “We the People” should rise up and make getting the
United States out of the United Nations part of the political revolution
that just elected Trump as president, Palin has echoed a decades-long
campaign waged by The John Birch Society (JBS — the grassroots
educational and action organization with which The New American is affiliated) to accomplish that goal.A brief summary of the Get US out! of the United Nations campaign on the JBS webpage notes:
Get US Out! of the United Nations has
been the signature campaign of The John Birch Society for over 50 years.
The global power elites view the UN as their main vehicle for
establishing, step by step, a socialistic global government controlled
by themselves. Now, more than ever, we need to get the US out of the UN
and the UN out of the US. Each year, we gain more support to Get US Out!
Can we count on your support today?
If you’re not already a member of The
John Birch Society, consider joining today! Members work together to
organize local action to create the change they seek: less government,
more responsibility, and — with God's help — a better world.
Palin’s advice that “We the People” rise up and make getting the
United States out of the United Nations part of the political revolution
is excellent, but there is no need to reinvent the wheel by starting a
new campaign to that end. Opponents of U.S. membership in the UN can
take part in that signature campaign of The John Birch Society that has
been going on for over 50 years.Sometimes, it takes an outrageous act on the part of the UN to motivate someone to act. In Palin’s case, it was the Security Council’s resolution on Israel. In this writer’s case, it was the UN’s outrageous action on October 25, 1971 to expel one of its own founding members, the Republic of China, and to admit in its place the bloody communist regime known as the People’s Republic of China. Incensed by that action, and knowing about The John Birch Society's campaign to get the United States out of the UN, we immediately decided to join the JBS and work toward that end.

S.C. senator tells Americans to dismiss claims by renowned whistle blower
BY ADAN SALAZAR

South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham says the incoming Trump administration should ignore Wikileaks founder Julian Assange’s assertion that the Russian government did not interfere in the US election.
Appearing on CNN Wednesday, Graham attempted to discredit Assange’s reputation and stated Trump should pay more attention to US intelligence agencies.
“Don’t listen to Julian Assange on anything.”
“I hope the president-elect will get his information and trust the American patriots who work in the intelligence community who swear oath and allegiance to the Constitution, and not some guy hiding from the law who has a record of undercutting and undermining American democracy,” he added.
In an interview with Sean Hannity that aired Tuesday, Assange claimed the Russian government was not the source of WikiLeaks’ content.
“We can say, we have said, repeatedly that over the last two months that
our source is not the Russian government and it is not a state party,”
Assange told Hannity.
“Our publications had wide uptake by the American people, they’re all
true. But that’s not the allegation that’s being presented by the Obama
White House. So, why such a dramatic response? Well, the reason is
obvious. They’re trying to delegitimize the Trump administration as it
goes into the White House. They are trying to say that President-elect
Trump is not a legitimate president.”
President-elect Donald
Trump also addressed Assange’s interview via Twitter, agreeing the US
media is “dishonest” and questioning the DNC’s shoddy cyber security."@FoxNews: Julian Assange on U.S. media coverage: “It’s very dishonest.” #Hannity pic.twitter.com/ADcPRQifH9" More dishonest than anyone knows— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 4, 2017

FRANCE'S LE PEN: LET'S "FREXIT", BRING BACK NATIONAL FRENCH CURRENCY
FRANCE'S LE PEN: LET'S "FREXIT", BRING BACK NATIONAL FRENCH CURRENCY
Trump effect spreads worldwide as globalists
lose control
BY JAMIE WHITE
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
French presidential candidate Marine Le Pen said she wants to take France out of the Euro and reintroduce a new national currency after a potential “Frexit.”
Le Pen, leader of France’s far-right party National Front, said she would hold a referendum on France’s place in the EU and pledged to hold a vote within six months of winning the election.
“More and more European citizens realize their economies have been suffocated by the euro,” she told reporters at a Paris press conference. “The French want less Europe and more France.”
“I want a national currency with the euro as a common currency.”
Le Pen is referring to the ECU (European Currency Unit) framework, which is a basket of currencies that served as an aid in reducing fluctuations between European state currencies for two decades until the euro was introduced in 1999.
“The ECU existed alongside a national currency,” Le Pen stated. “A national currency co-existing with a common currency would not have any consequences for French daily life.”
Le Pen’s deputy Florian Philippot explained that this proposal did not mean that Le Pen has changed her position about leaving the euro.
“A currency following the ECU model is not a currency you have in your wallet or your bank account. It’s an accounting currency between countries,” he said.
“It could be a model, maybe even a transitory one,” he added.
Le Pen’s economic adviser Philippe Murer echoed a similar sentiment.
“With a return to the ECU, we could retain a trace of the euro,” said Murer, who is also Le Pen’s assistant at the European Parliament.
“We will only determine these questions after consulting the French people. The nation must be able to decide for itself.”
The two-round French presidential election will take place on April 23 and May 7 of this year, with Le Pen set to win at least the first round of voting. Her political rise has been propelled by deep discontent with the refugee crisis, the economy, and EU trade policy.
2017: THE YEAR OF PANDERING, PUSSYFOOTING, PHARISAICAL PREACHERS
2017: THE YEAR OF PANDERING, PUSSYFOOTING, PHARISAICAL PREACHERS

[NOTE:
The opinion in this article is the opinion of the author and
is not necessarily the opinion of NewsWithViews.com, it's employees,
representatives, or other contributing writers.]
It’s
been going on for decades, of course. I’m talking about America’s
pastors. For the most part, they have become little more than glorified
errand boys for corporatism, elitism, legalism, and statism. They
watch FOX News too much. They watch Joel Osteen and John Hagee too
much. They worry about their 401k’s too much. They worry about
their reputations too much. They worry about being disliked too much.
They worry about offending major donors too much. They worry about
falling out of the smiley side of the political establishment too
much. They play golf too much. They belong to too many civic clubs.
They try to be liked too much. Like Barack Obama, they take too many
vacations. They play and socialize too much and study too little.
They are too afraid of being controversial. They are too afraid of
being unpopular. And worst of all, they are too afraid of TRUTH.
The
televangelist pied pipers of apostasy are blind guides leading a blind
church into a deep and horrible ditch. Joel Osteen refuses to use
words such as “sin,” “sinner,” “hell,”
“judgment,” “wrath,” “homosexual,”
“lesbian,” etc. His perverse and pernicious brand of prosperity
theology has warped a generation of gullible and undiscerning Christians.
John Hagee has made a fortune pandering to the Zionists in Tel Aviv.
He has sold millions of dollars worth of books and DVDs promulgating
the false doctrine that Jews have a special covenant with God and
need not come to Christ for salvation. He has also blatantly said
that Jesus did not even come to be the Messiah and that the Jews cannot
be blamed for rejecting a Messiah that never was.
But
the Judaizing of the church in America has just begun. I predict that
2017 will see a tsunami of Zionistic thought and theology immersing
the church. Ultra-Zionists in Congress such as John McCain, Lindsey
Graham, and Ted Cruz are preparing to launch a fresh Israel-First
political campaign like this country has never seen. And I predict
that Donald Trump will likewise launch his own Israel-First campaign
from the White House. And given that a majority of preachers and Christians
in this country are already laboring under a false and fictitious
Israel-First theology in their hearts and minds, they will be wide
open to entertaining and promoting this new political, economic, and
military push--all of which will benefit the international Zionist
bankers who bankroll their toadies in the cloakrooms of Washington,
D.C., and newsrooms of New York City.
Already,
these pandering, pussyfooting, Pharisaical preachers are beginning
to compromise the cardinal doctrines of the Christian faith. This
past Christmas, Atlanta megachurch pastor Andy Stanley said in a message
that “the story of Jesus’ virgin birth is not crucial
to the Christian faith.
“‘If
somebody can predict their own death and resurrection, I’m not
all that concerned about how they got into the world,’ Andy
Stanley said in a Dec. 4 sermon at North Point Community Church, which
draws 36,000 attendees across six locations in suburban Atlanta. ‘Christianity
doesn’t hinge on the truth or even the stories around the birth
of Jesus. It hinges on the resurrection of Jesus.’”
See
the report: Megachurch
Pastor Ignites Debate After Suggesting That Christianity Doesn’t
Hinge On Jesus’ Birth
Surely,
Andy Stanley knows that the resurrection of Christ is not possible
without the virgin birth of Christ. And he must also know that Christianity
does indeed hinge on the virgin birth of Jesus Christ. So, why would
he say such a thing? Like the vast majority of these megachurch pastors,
he is pandering to self-interest. One doesn’t attract 36,000
parishioners in modern self-absorbed America by preaching like John
the Baptist.
And
speaking of John the Baptist, ex-con Jim Bakker and prophecy geek
Tom Horn are promoting a new book that suggests President-elect Donald
Trump is a modern-day John the Baptist for a soon coming Messiah.
I kid you not! They are saying that Trump’s election could be
the precursor for Christ to return in September or October of this
year.
These
guys never miss a trick! How many millions of dollars will they make
on this book? Of course, when November and December of this year roll
around, I’m sure they will be offering another prophecy book
with more “signs” and “moons” and “sabbaths”
and “miracles” that point to other dates for Jesus’
return. And that book will net them another million or two. P.T. Barnum
sure knew what he was talking about when he said, “There’s
a sucker born every minute.”
In
the first place, I’ve never heard Donald Trump say one word
that even suggests he has a personal relationship with Christ. I don’t
know his heart, of course. I’m just saying he has never made
any kind of public affirmation of a personal faith in Christ. In the
second place, for supposed preachers to suggest that the hedonistic,
womanizing, foul-mouthed Donald Trump is a modern-day John the Baptist
is the height of spiritual idiocy. What kind of president Trump will
be is yet to be seen. I sincerely hope he will be a good one. But
to compare him to John the Baptist, the mighty prophet and forerunner
of our Lord who was filled with the Holy Spirit from his mother’s
womb, borders on blasphemy.
News
flash: when Christ returns, He will not need anyone’s help--not
Jim Bakker’s, not Tom Horn’s, not Kenneth Copeland’s,
not Benny Hinn’s, not Donald Trump’s, not ANYONE’S.
And
speaking further of pandering preachers: one of Trump’s “spiritual
advisers,” Jerry Falwell, Jr., recently said that the moral
(or immoral) convictions of Rex Tillerson, Trump’s pick for
Secretary of State, aren’t relevant. That’s right. He
said they aren’t relevant.
Tillerson
is a major promoter of Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest
abortion provider. He is also a major promoter of the homosexual agenda.
It was Tillerson who led the Boy Scouts of America to accept homosexuals.
See
the report here: Jerry
Falwell Jr.: Rex Tillerson’s Position On Social Issues Not Relevant
Of
course, Tillerson is also a loyal fellow traveler of the Council on
Foreign Relations (CFR) and a major globalist. But New World Order,
globalist issues NEVER make the radar for Christian leaders such as
Jerry Falwell, Jr.
All
over America, pastors are pandering to power, wealth, success, and
position. Had Hillary Clinton been elected, she would have chosen
several of the same kind of people for her new cabinet as Trump has
selected for his--people such as Tillerson. The difference is because
Donald Trump is the one doing the selecting, preachers, radio talk
show hosts, conservative writers, etc., for the most part, say absolutely
nothing against these appointments. But if Clinton was the one making
these selections, they would be screaming their heads off.
Folks,
the word for that is PANDERING.
If
scripturally illiterate people want to pronounce a President-elect
as their new messiah and savior, so be it. But supposed men of God
and students of the scriptures should know that America’s real
problems are spiritual, not political. They should know that America’s
remedies are spiritual, not political. They should know that NO politician
or political party can ever provide salvation--not even temporal salvation.
Will
Donald Trump accomplish some good things in office? I hope so. Will
he also do some very BAD things in office? I fear so. Will his administration
be a net positive or negative for America? Right now, no one knows.
We all pray it will be the former, of course.
But
what we do know is that it is the pastors and men of God in this country
who are the ones charged with the responsibility of speaking truth
to power (regardless of political party), of standing boldly and uncompromisingly
for the Biblical Natural Law principles of liberty, and of being honest
truth-seekers and truth-tellers.
For
far too long, churches and Christians have looked to politicians,
political parties, and political celebrities to lead the country out
of darkness. This they cannot do. Light and darkness are spiritual
realities, NOT political ones. Jesus said that His disciples were
the “light” of the world, NOT the kings, governors, potentates,
emperors, or even presidents of this world. So, why does the church
look to the likes of these to lead them out of darkness? Maybe it’s
because all they see around them are pandering, pussyfooting, and
Pharisaical preachers.
Then
again, if people truly want truth-telling men of God to bring light
to their country and communities, why do they continue to sit in the
dark shadows of pandering pulpits?
P.S.
As I said, I predict that 2017 will be “The Year of the Zionists.”
It is as clear as crystal to me that the old covenant, Pharisaical,
Zionist false doctrines will be enveloping the western church in an
unprecedented manner during the course of this year. In truth, THIS
could be the beginning of the great “falling away” that
leads to the “man of sin” who will deceive the “very
elect.”
Equating
the modern State of Israel created in 1948 to Biblical or prophetic
Israel is the devil’s greatest deception upon the church. As
long as the church--and our country--lies buried under this delusion,
the light of Christ and His truth can never shine on this nation.
I
preached the "Israel First" doctrine for most of my life,
but the more I taught it, the more dissatisfied I became with it.
A few years ago, I began a systematic search of the Bible with an
open mind and discovered that the promise to Abraham in Genesis 12:3
was fulfilled in Jesus Christ and in those who believe in Him, as
clearly explained in Galatians 3:16.
The
misapplication of Genesis 12:3 to the modern State of Israel has produced
untold death, carnage, and war. And sadly, it is Christians who are
the loudest cheerleaders for all of these global wars of aggression.
And the reason for this "spirit of war" is the egregious
misinterpretation of Genesis 12:3 that inaccurately applies the promise
to Abraham to the modern State of Israel.
Let
me be clear: I’m NOT talking about race--the Jewish race or
any other race. I’m talking about false theology. Many rabbis
and Jews are as opposed to the false teachings of Talmudic Zionism
as anyone.
I
urge readers to watch my seven-message, two-DVD sermon series entitled
“The Church And Israel.” This message series has helped
thousands of people come to a better understanding of what the Bible
truly teaches regarding Israel--past, present, and future. It is by
far my most requested DVD package. If you watch these messages with
an open heart and mind, I believe the Holy Spirit will reveal truth
to you that will change your life. And you do remember what Jesus
said, right? “The truth shall make you free.”
VIRGINIA GOVERNOR VOWS TO VETO 20 WEEK ABORTION BAN IF PASSED
MCAULIFFE PREFERS TO MURDER BABIES, RATHER THAN SPOIL
STATE'S IMAGE
VIRGINIA GOVERNOR VOWS TO VETO 20 WEEK ABORTION BAN IF PASSED

RICHMOND, Va. — The Democratic governor of Virginia has vowed to veto a 20-week abortion ban if it makes it to his desk this year.
Gov. Terry McAuliffe told reporters that he believes that such laws would adversely affect the state’s image and would harm business in Virginia.
“I can’t sit back and have that sitting out the same time I am traveling the globe recruiting businesses to Virginia,” he said, according to the Associated Press. “If there’s something that would be damaging toward business, and to our image around the country and the globe, I’ll veto it. You bet I will.”
The Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act was recently proposed by Del. Dave LaRock, R–Loudoun County. It prohibits abortions after 20 weeks gestation, or five months, with the exception of medical necessity.
“No person shall perform or induce or attempt to perform or induce an abortion upon a woman when it has been determined by the physician performing or inducing or attempting to perform or induce the abortion, or by another physician upon whose determination that physician relies, that the probable postfertilization age of the woman’s unborn child is 20 or more weeks,” it reads in part.
The bill notes that “by eight weeks after fertilization, the unborn child reacts to touch” and “[a]fter 20 weeks, the unborn child reacts to stimuli that would be recognized as painful if applied to an adult human, for example, by recoiling.”
Lawmakers are expected to discuss the proposal on Jan. 11, which would make performing an abortion on the 20-week child when there is no threat to the mother a class 4 felony.
LaRock said that it is only humane to seek to restrict murder.
“It’s outrageous for a person with any compassion to turn a blind eye while this torture takes place,” he told reporters.
In addition to McAuliffe, Lt. Governor Ralph Northam has also spoken out against the bill, opining after Ohio lawmakers passed a similar measure last month that it would be wrong to disallow mothers to end their pregnancies after 20 weeks if they are told that the child is no longer viable. “Viable” simply means capable of living apart from the mother, outside of the womb.
“What they just did in Ohio, they said that they’re going to get between the doctor and the patient, and saying despite your discussion—despite what you want to do—we’re going to make you continue to carry that fetus that is no longer viable, that will not be able to take in a breath of oxygen,” he said.
But pro-life groups, such as National Right to Life, called Northam’s remarks “fear-mongering” and presenting “false narratives.”
“There’s just no question that Virginians want public policy that understands the humanity of the unborn, and I think [they’ve] been heading in that direction for a long time,” Victoria Cobb of The Family Foundation also told the Burke Patch.
The concept of banning abortion after the stage of viability comes from the 1973 U.S. Supreme Court decision of Roe v. Wade.
“Physicians and their scientific colleagues have regarded [the concept of ‘quickening’] with less interest and have tended to focus either upon conception, upon live birth, or upon the interim point at which the fetus becomes ‘viable,’ … albeit with artificial aid,” Justice Harry Blackmun wrote for the mostly Republican majority. “Viability is usually placed at about seven months (28 weeks) but may occur earlier, even at 24 weeks.”
However, some believe that the Supreme Court’s logic was faulty and contend that gestational age does not make the child less human or unworthy of life. The film “Come What May,” produced by Patrick Henry College students, centers on this argument.
“They tear the baby out of its only means of life support, and say, ‘Wow, look at that; our machines can’t sustain it’s life,’ and somehow, that proves it’s not viable?” Caleb Hogan, played by Austin Kearney, declares in the production.
While some pro-life groups favor an incremental approach, others state that abortion should be completely outlawed rather than regulated. Jan. 22 marks 44 years since the passage of Roe, with an estimated 60 million children aborted as a result.
ATHEIST ACTIVIST GROUP URGES TRUMP TO KEEP GOD OUT OF INAUGURATION

WASHINGTON — A prominent professing atheist organization is asking President-elect Donald Trump to keep God out of this month’s inaugural ceremony by removing the Bible, prayer and the “so help me God” phrase of the oath from the event.The Wisconsin-based Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF) recently sent a letter to Trump to urge him to change his plans for the inauguration. It asserted that the Constitution is secular in nature and “contains no directive to swear to a deity or to place a hand on a Bible.”
“The ‘so help me God’ tradition violates the spirit of our secular Constitution in the very act of promising to uphold it. The Constitution prohibits rather than mandates religious oaths,” the group asserted.
“In its altered, religious form, the oath has become a symbol of the disregard many in our nation have shown for our secular constitutional principles. Reciting the presidential oath in its original form would be an important symbolic step toward divorcing American politics from religion,” it said.
FFRF also asked Trump to pull the prayer portion of the event, which, as previously reported, will feature an ecumenical assortment, including Franklin Graham, prosperity preacher Paula White and others. Some spiritual leaders will read from Scripture at the inauguration, such as prominent Catholic Cardinal Timothy Dolan and Jewish Rabbi Marvin Hier of the Simon Wiesenthal Center.
“If you wished to hold a private religious convocation to personally celebrate your inauguration with religion, of course we would have no objection based on the Establishment Clause,” the letter, signed by Co-Presidents Dan Barker and Annie Laurie Gaylor, outlined. “But we and our membership do most strenuously object to turning a secular event into a religious circus.”
“You were not elected pastor in chief, but president of all the people,” they said, repeating a phrase many Christians often contended during Trump’s campaign. “Prayer hosted by the government should not be part of taking a ceremony about pledging fealty to a secular Constitution.”
The organization likewise asked Trump not to take his oath on the Bible, but instead on the Constitution.
It is not yet known whether or not Trump plans to respond. As previously reported, FFRF made a similar request in 2012 for Barack Obama’s second inauguration ceremony, but it was disregarded.
In his first inaugural address in 1789, the nation’s first president, George Washington, declared, “[I]t would be peculiarly improper to omit in this first official act, my fervent supplications to that Almighty Being who rules over the universe, who presides in the Councils of Nations, and whose providential aids can supply every human defect, that His benediction may consecrate to the liberties and happiness of the people of the United States, a government instituted by themselves for these essential purposes: and may enable every instrument employed in its administration to execute with success, the functions allotted to His charge.”
“[W]e ought to be no less persuaded that the propitious smiles of Heaven can never be expected on a nation that disregards the eternal rules of order and right, which Heaven itself has ordained,” he proclaimed.
