Marsha Blackburn has some thoughts about Amy Coney Barrett’s cult and we’re all a little dumber now
Justice Amy Coney Barrett has been trending on Twitter for the last 24 hours after The Guardian published a bombshell report about People of Praise, a Christian cult where she once served as a handmaid female leader.The report accused the group’s leader, Kevin Ranaghan, and his wife of taking part in “sexual displays” in front of children in the early 1990s.
It also claimed Ranaghan showered with two of his daughters, who were 10 or 11 at the time, among other deeply disturbing allegations.Barrett lived with the Ranaghans for two years in the mid 1990s while she attended law school.
She graduated from Notre Dame Law School in 1997 and married her husband, Jesse, two years later. Jesse also appears to have lived in the Ranaghan household for a time.Related: Creepy new details about Amy Coney Barrett’s cult emerge and wow, what a holy nightmareThere is no indication either of the Barretts participated in the chilling behavior described in the report, but after the story broke, people were rightfully pretty creeped out by the whole thing.
