Wow, the emerald mine heir that wants to go to mars is getting support from the ex-KGB agent with a penchant for poisoning. I honestly don’t know why I expected anything different

Totally unexpectable!!!

OOH

So that church that I heard was using its non-profit status to create an untaxable 32 billion dollar investment portfolio that got exposed for using 13 shell companies to hide the holdings from the public was a Mormon one! Who could have guessed!

We must ban anyone against these things! That’s dangerous extremist ideology

Ooookkay,

Trans people should start their own religion and then claim bigots are violating their right to freedom of religion or whatever
