The next generation of DemocratsCommunists are moving on up in New Hampshire. One such Communist is Angela Brennan, running to replace her comrade, Becky “The Red” Whitley, who is moving on up to run for Congress in the 2nd-CD.
It is pretty common knowledge that “Blaine Amendments” in State Constitutions (enacted by States in the late 19th century (when Protestantism was still being taught in public schools) to discriminate against Catholics) violate the First Amendment of the United States Constitution, and therefore are unenforceable. For example:
The first major blow to Blaine Amendments came in June 2020, when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Espinoza v. Montana Department of Revenue that the federal Constitution forbids states from excluding families and schools from educational choice programs based on their religious status. The U.S. Constitution, wrote Chief Justice Roberts for a majority of the Court, “condemns discrimination against religious schools and the families whose children attend them. They are members of the community too, and their exclusion from [Montana’s] scholarship program here is odious to our Constitution and cannot stand.” The Supreme Court’s holding was clear and unambiguous—and it applies to every state: While a “State need not subsidize private education[,] . . . once a State decides to do so, it cannot disqualify some private schools solely because they are religious.”
The second blow to Blaine Amendments came two years later when the Supreme Court ruled in Carson v. Makin that states may not prohibit families that participate in educational choice programs from selecting schools that provide religious instruction. The Court held that such programs must be neutral regarding religion and allow parents to pick the school that works best for their children. Chief Justice Roberts, again writing for the Court’s majority, held that Maine “violates the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment” when it prohibits parents from choosing religious educational options in a school choice program.
Yet here is Angela Brennan disseminating the FALSEHOOD that New Hampshire’s Blaine Amendment remains operative:
The question is: IS COMRADE BRENNAN A CONSTITUTIONAL KNOW-NOTHING OR A LIAR? The question that does not need to be asked is whether Comrade Brennan is a RELIGIOUS-BIGOT … she clearly is.
