Summary
It's not even Thanksgiving, but the Christian warriors are already at it at the Wisconsin Assembly. We'll tell you what's wrong with their Thanksgiving "Bible Week" Resolution. FFRF Co-President Annie Laurie Gaylor's timely warning about the precarious state of abortion rights, under attack by organized religion, is making the news, along with FFRF's new billboard on the same subject. FFRF Litigation Attorney Patrick Elliott talks about FFRF's major court victory in Kentucky this week, protecting the free speech rights of atheist Ben Hart to say "IM God" on his license plate. Then we interview author and researcher Frederick Clarkson about his latest major exposé regarding Project Blitz, a not-so-stealthy campaign to impose Christian Nationalist legislation at the state level.
