Someone needs to inform him it’s religious freedom, not so-called “freedom from religion”.

Someone please tell the idiot that he cannot proclaim a day to allow us to practice any of our God given rights.
What’s next free speech day or freedom of movement day?

There is a reason why our founders pointed out that our rights are given by God and not government or some monarch but come directly from God.

How can people tolerate the hypocrisy of this guy ? He should have faced some very pointed questions before responsible journalists (an oxymoron, I know) walked out en masse.

That’s what you get out of someone who comes up with nonsense phrases like “negative liberties” for the Constitution. He must really despise the Ten Commandments, which is the ultimate list of so-called “negative liberties”, then.
