  4. There have always been three factions here: religion can't be favored over secular; religions can be favored over secular, but not over each other; and Christian religions can be favored, but not over each other. Separation of church and state has always been a hodgepodge of conflicting jurisprudence depending on which faction could cobble together a scotus majority at any given time. But now the extreme social conservatives who believe in category 3 control the executive and the courts.
  5. not sure how real it is, but a constitutional amendment was introduced in the NY state senate today: https://legislation.nysenate.gov/pdf/bills/2025/S8467 as I read it, the premise of the amendment is that if another state does a mid-decade redistricting the way TX is, it would automatically empower the NYS legislature to redraw NY's congressional map without having to defer to the constitutionally mandated independent redistricting commission. if it turns out to be serious (it was introduced by the number two guy in the senate, which means that is possible), the state constitutional amendment process is a multi-term and resolves with a public referendum - so the earliest it could apply would be the 2028 cycle.
