Uproar as after-school Satan club forms at Tennessee elementary school
Satanic clubs, whose members do not worship the devil, usually formed in response to presence of religious groups in schools
Community members in a Tennessee school district want to banish Satan from their children’s halls after the formation of a new club was announced.
The After School Satan Club (ASSC) wants to establish a branch in Chimneyrock elementary school in the Memphis-Shelby county schools (MSCS) district.
The ASSC is a federally recognized nonprofit organization and national after-school program with local chapters across the US. The club is associated with the Satanic Temple, though it claims it is secular and “promotes self-directed education by supporting the intellectual and creative interests of students”.
The Satanic Temple makes it clear its members do not actually worship the devil or believe in the existence of Satan or the supernatural. Instead Satan is used as a symbol of free will, humanism and anti-authoritarianism.

Ok? What magical combination of incentives results in McConnell letting Obama nominate a judge?

What are you going to do? Shoot him? What does Kentucky do then? Do you think the next leader of the Senate is going to roll over? Or is Congress going to impeach that president?
We could speed run a civil war, sure. That's certainly one idea.
