Last October, during a speech at the University of Notre Dame, Attorney General William Barr blamed social problems like drug addiction and mental health issues on a lack of religion. He even condemned the “militant secularists” pushing for progressive values.
Months later, he blamed “militant secularists” for imposing their values on religious people when the reality is that (1) militant secularism is an oxymoron in the U.S. and (2) that sort of thing only ever happens the other way around.
Barr went even further yesterday during a speech at the 2020 National Religious Broadcasters Convention.
It was his most blunt argument so far to justify the Christian Right’s takeover of the U.S. government.
And as with all things Trump, Barr deliberately lied to his audience. (follow link to see a video)
He doesn’t actually spend much time studying statistics does he.
