https://www.npr.org/2025/04/16/nx-s1-5338830/trump-federal-cuts-civil-rights-education-investigations" G has fetal alcohol syndrome, autism, ADHD and a mild intellectual disability. Cupp and her husband adopted G as a toddler, and Cupp asked that NPR use only G's first initial because this story describes the symptoms of G's disabilities and her school's response.
Cupp says that after weeks of trying to get G's school to change the way it handled her daughter's behavior, she filed a complaint with the U.S. Education Department's Office for Civil Rights, or OCR, which investigates discrimination in schools.
Now, Cupp and other parents say their civil rights complaints aren't being investigated. Last week, Cupp joined a lawsuit that aims to force the federal government to act on complaints like hers. The lawsuit claims the layoffs have undermined OCR's "ability to fulfill its statutory and regulatory mandate to enforce civil rights laws in schools."
"I just can't fathom that anybody would cut something so vital," says Cupp, a devout Christian. She says she voted for President Trump and thought he shared her beliefs. "But I can't understand why they're doing what they're doing, because that is not what God would intend."

This bastardization of Christianity gets me so frickin pissed my hair hurts!
I know so many "christians" just like this lady and her husband.
Note they "adopted" a child with fetal alcohol syndrome. I guaran-fucking-tee you that they felt they were saving this child from her "heathen" mother. They praise themselves as "saviors". I also guarantee you that they close their eyes and beat their breasts in the "front-row" of whatever fucked up church they attend.
Saint Matthew wrote extensively about these pious dipshits in his gospel.
She fucking voted for Donnie Dipshit, because she felt he shared her "Christian Values"?
...she probably has no clue how right she is!

Christianity is not a monolithic block as those percentages attest. Many adhere to the source material as best they can.

It seems that the bigger the cross around their necks, the more sins they commit.

They believe what they WANT to believe. I'm just confused as to why they want to believe it.

These pseudo-Chrisitians are just like the rest of the MAGA base. They all live in a bubble world of deluded beliefs

I can see how easy it would be to think Trump is a good christian. He is the living embodiment of Christ.
