religion is sacrosanct is america both culturally

Incorrect.  Only certain brands of Christianity are "sacrosanct."  Atheists, Jews, Muslims, Zoroastrians, Rastafarians, Wicca, Native American religious practices and some versions of Christianity do not get the same "cultural" respect that Protestant Christianity gets.

and by law and constitution.

Incorrect.  The only reference to religion in the Constitution is the First Amendment statement that the government has no business making religious decisions.

in america, courts cannot be placed in the role of determining whether a random set of beliefs is "properly christian" for example.

And this is the crux of the problem, because in the Hobby Lobby case the court decided that CORPORATIONS were entitled to act on the religious beliefs of their boards of directors.  This led to a "sincerely held belief" that employees are trash unworthy of attention.

When the people on this blog tell you the legalities of something, you really should not debate them unless your knowledge of the law equals theirs.

And further, given your own admitted affinity for avoiding personal responsibility for your own vote, I'd argue that whatever the damage done in this particular instance by John Podesta, it likely pales in comparison to that which is regularly wrought by those so-called "progressives" who are far more enamored by the projected image of their own self-righteous indignation, than they are apparently concerned with the actual fate of our country which they otherwise purport to love and cherish.

Time and again, through their own arrogant conceit and self-absorption, they prove to everyone else that despite their plaintive pleadings to the contrary, there really is no "us" in them.

Leaving aside, for the moment, that everyone at the G20 was talking about the matter of Podesta's email server,  Podesta was chair of the Clinton campaign, not the DNC.  Complying with a request for the DNC server from which emails were stolen would not be up to him.

 Podesta's server was also hacked and his emails stolen (Podesta cooperated with the FBI and other law enforcement officials).  Trump erroneously conflates the crimes and misstates the uncooperativeness with law enforcement officials.

Male baboons that harass and assault females are more likely to mate with them, according to a new study, adding evidence that sexual intimidation may be a common mating strategy among promiscuous mammals. The study's authors even argue that the findings could shed light on the evolutionary origins of our own species' behavior, although others aren't convinced the results imply anything about people.
