Trump Bunch Going Statist

Trump's New York City state of mind is becoming a hazard to civil rights.

... The Trump [is] urging the Supreme Court to reject a petition by New York healthcare workers who were fired for spurning COVID-19 vaccination on religious grounds, arguing the state mandate didn't violate federal law....

... [T]he Department of Justice's friend-of-the-court brief emphasizes the distinction between "exemption" and "accommodation" for the purposes of recognizing employees' religious rights under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act....

 ...Representing five lead plaintiffs and another 1,500 who were fired after submitting religious accommodation requests, Liberty Counsel filed a supplemental brief days after DOJ's that accused the government of "fundamental errors" regarding the importance of the case and its facts, dismissing the department's focus on "terminology" as irrelevant to Title VII.

Vaccine injury lawyer Aaron Siri mocked the government's brief as "a word salad of nonsense," tagging President Trump's personal X account Tuesday to accuse his administration of "betraying religious liberty by arguing it is perfectly fine for employers to have policies that allow medical but not religious exemptions to vaccination requirements."...

Frankly, this is not surprising.  Trump is--at heart--a Big Government guy.  His appeal (MAGA) was based on making the Big Government cost-effective, a goal which cannot and will not be realized.  That's why he spends money like it's water.  The remaining elements of his policy--ejecting illegals and going after blatant frauds--are low-hanging fruits.  Dismantling the Deep State?  Never going to happen.

In the case above, he's showing his tendency to typical Democrat positions. 

Statism is the natural consequence of his policy
