BIPARTISAN OUTRAGE
OVER PUPPET TRUMP'S
FUNDAMENTALIST FUELED ANTI-TRANSGENDER TWEETS!

Of Trump, Transgenders and Toilet Paper

Friday, July 28, 2017

The Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF), of which I am the Founder and President, has long been engaged in a war with fundamentalist Christian Dominionism and the pervasive and pernicious national security threat it poses to our military, our nation, and the world.

You should know by now that our disgraceful Caligula in Chief, the pathetically petulant and entitled Trump, took to Twitter (again) this week to blast transgender members of the military.

[...]

The same sorts of radical extremists MRFF has been fighting for longer than 12 years, have become supremely confident under the cowardly and craven Trump Administration. As we always have, MRFF stands by LGBTQ armed forces members and will continue to do everything we can to enforce, guarantee and protect their civil rights in the military.

[...]

The uproar among party members on both sides of the aisle was immediate and overwhelming.  Secretary of Defense James Mattis, apparently on vacation when impulsive Trump’s tweets went live, was reportedly appalled. Furthermore, in stark contrast with lying Trump’s claims above, the military asserts they were not consulted by Trump and were dismissively relegated to finding out about his tweets through the news, just like all the rest of us.

Christian military members do not want someone else’s version of Christianity imposed upon them. Non-Christian military members do not want any version of Christianity imposed upon them. All object to being publicly proselytized with the private religious beliefs of another in the military workplace and want to be able to perform their military duties free from uninvited interference. The MRFF proudly, patriotically and professionally represents them to ensure this precious Constitution liberty of theirs and all Americans is respected and protected. See www.military religiousfreedom.org.

The military mission is to defend our nation against its enemies – not promote a religion. The sworn military service oath is to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States...and bear true faith and allegiance to the same” - not to any religion or religious writing. The Constitution prohibits our government or its representatives (which includes the military) from promoting a religion. [...]

"Statement of Appreciation"

From: USAF Academy Grad’s E-Mail Address Withheld
Subject: Statement of Appreciation
Date: July 27, 2017

Recently, I approached Mr. Weinstein and MRFF for help a bit outside of their usual “wheelhouse.” I am a graduate of the United States Air Force Academy, and I sought advice on how to proceed in a very difficult situation involving sexual assault. Despite Mr. Weinstein’s busy schedule and overall focus on religious intolerance in the military, he dropped everything to help refer me to several incredibly helpful people, within hours of my simple email to his assistant. Mr. Weinstein listened to my story and hastened to poll his resources to find me leads on the help I desperately need. He also took the time to personally advise me based on his experience, and a friendly ear is all the difference in the world to a victim in this situation. Thank you, Mr. Weinstein and MRFF.
