Covenant Marriage Laws: Christian Nationalist Control Disguised as Choicee

Covenant Marriage bills are spreading across six states despite less than 1% adoption where it exists. I break down what these laws actually do: require proof of adultery, abuse, felony conviction, or abandonment to divorce—plus mandatory counseling and waiting periods. Research shows no-fault divorce reduced female suicide 8-16%, intimate partner violence 30%, and partner murders 10%. So why are Republican legislators in Missouri, Tennessee, Oklahoma, New Hampshire, Texas, and South Carolina pushing covenant marriage now? I trace the connections to Christian nationalist groups, Project 2025, and politicians like JD Vance and Mike Johnson. This isn't about strengthening families—it's about control. I explain how covenant marriage violates First Amendment protections, traps abuse victims, and represents the first step toward eliminating no-fault divorce entirely. Plus: Trump's bizarre Easter message threatening Iran, Paula White comparing Trump to Jesus, and why even MAGA supporters are turning on his Middle East policy.
