This fellow Barr picked iis a member, a arch conservative Catholic group. Barr is an opus deii memeber, not a coincidence I think. I wonder what will happen when a lot of conservative Catholics on the right realize the arch calvinists that run the right do not like them either.

Months ago, I had read a discussion about how a strict religion & theology conversion within US gov't and society would be an end game goal of Putin in the destruction of western democracy.
Since he governs Russia the same.

It described a whole strict religion theme as a parallel to Putin's coup on America.

I do not recall the source of the article anymore but it was disturbing.

Perhaps this is what the conversation was referring to.
Opus dei/Calvinism....

I'm not that well studied on such religions.

He's putting all his eggs in Trump's basket.
If Trump loses, Barr will probably be going to prison so he is doing everything he can to make sure Trump wins.
