(00:02):
The head of a task force brand new to eradicate anti Christian
bias. About time, right?
Anti Christian bias. Yeah, It never heard of that one
before, right? But there's it's about time,
isn't it though, really. Welcome to the Trash Cats, trash

(00:43):
cast. I'm Richard.
I'm Steven. And today we are deconstructing
the White House Faith Office. Brick by fucking brick, today we
are talking about the vile hypocrisy of the Republican
religious. Fuck them all.
Them all. God damn right.
Dude, I I hate it so much. But first, this is a big

(01:06):
episode. Big researchy one.
Took us forever to get to it, but we're finally here.
Trash cats. We made it.
But first, how was your week? Week was actually pretty good.
I struggled to come up with things to bring up in therapy
today because it's actually it'sbeen a good week.

(01:27):
You're cured. Yeah, I'm cured.
It's all better. I can proudly say that I'm free
of all, any and all mental illness.
It's cool, though, the somethingI I think doesn't get talked
about all that much with therapyis like a lot of it is looked at
as very acute, like trying to, to stop the bleeding and cure

(01:52):
the immediate problems. But some of the best parts are
when you've kind of stemmed the immediate damage and and you get
to explore the the things you didn't really have time or
energy for, you know? Yeah, I, I realized like he's
given me some advice enough thatI feel a lot more comfortable in

(02:13):
the, you know, the more immediate stuff.
So, you know, and stuff I've been practicing on.
So it's like, all right, cool. Like I put some of this stuff
into place already and it's already made an effect and made
my week go better. So like now, now what do you
want to talk about? And of course I still managed to
come up with some shit, but. There's always something to

(02:36):
whine about, that's for sure. I dug through my my treasure
trove of my treasure trove of trauma.
Found a couple trinkets, some gems, a.
Couple trinkets in my treasure trove of trauma.
Well, Speaking of treasure, you know my week's been OK aside

(02:56):
from our country sending people to slave dungeons in foreign
lands and destroying the worldwide economy, destroying
trade. Steven Why?
Why? Why would they do that?
Because they're really dumb. You know there's a that.
Does that does track actually you know?
I think the short answer is thatthey're dumb.

(03:19):
The long answer, you know, a lotof people have kind of bought
into some of the conspiratorial thinking that, you know,
especially with the stock marketmanipulations, like there could
be intent there. I think more than that, they're
just very predatorial like that.You know, where there's an

(03:39):
opening, of course they're goingto take advantage.
But I think so much of it, just like the tariffs being written
by shitty AIA, lot of it is justplain ignorance and lack of
understanding how the world works despite being in such

(04:00):
important leadership positions. And then, you know, as bad as
the stock market stuff has been,it to me still does not make the
top ten list of heinous, disgusting, hypocritical
behavior of the second administration alone.

(04:23):
And it it's kind of really fucking frustrating how many
people just now kind of come along to being critical when it
affects their fucking money, butnot when we send people to slave
camps or roundup people or the IRS decides that they'll use all
the information to go after potential illegal immigrants or

(04:49):
just, you know, all all of the heinous abuses that get ignored.
Suddenly people start to wake upa little bit when it comes to
their fucking money. And I think that's just so
indicative of the type of mindset that allows this
behavior in the 1st place. Yeah, very disappointing.

(05:10):
It, it really is. That's, that's actually, you
took the words out of my mouth. It's, it's disappointing, it's
embarrassing. It's it's just, it's a bad look.
Yeah, dude, it, it's like straight biblical, like they've
they've chosen this trajectory based on, based on ideals.

(05:33):
And Trump's never been by himself alone, like a a very
strong believer in anything outside of his own ego, right?
He wants to be loved and he wants to be known for success,
but he's never, he's not been like one of these Nazi guys or
one of these, you know, pure isolationist guys.

(05:54):
We've seen him flip flop on things even like abortion used
to be way more liberal. He's hardly a Republican when he
started this whole, you know, political venture.
But the people around him, especially the religious types,
have really dialed him in to being exactly the type of

(06:18):
ideologue that he thinks will give him power and help him be
embraced by the audience of cultists that he's cultivated.
And. There there is it's there's a
bit of not comfort. That's not the right word.

(06:41):
There's a bit of like he he's surrounded by, you know, yes,
men and people that are just willing to agree with him on
anything or, you know, they pushhim in directions, but like.
Vampires. Whatever he.
He's, he's the man and he's, youknow, he's in charge and they,
they pump him up because that's what he needs and he'll do

(07:02):
fucking anything for you if you pump him up.
But and, and there's, there's a bit of comfort in knowing that
like he's surrounded by that. So like that's what he thinks he
is. And when he steps outside of
that, like obviously he gets pushed back, but the what that

(07:22):
means then is that he's emboldened to do crazier and
Dumber shit because he's just going to do it.
And fuck the law. And it's, it's absolutely
infuriating. Yeah, we're, you know, at a
full, you know, we were at fascism light.

(07:44):
But I, I think we are approaching a point of no return
of full fascism. When the leader of a country is
immune to any prosecution, can expel people to dungeons and
other lands because of speech hedoesn't like.

(08:07):
When we can prosecute or abuse law firms for doing things they
don't like. When we can by executive order
direct the Justice Department toinvestigate people and and

(08:28):
despite this, especially with the stock stuff, he is kind of
at his weakest right now. The the public has finally begun
to turn on him a bit. But what remains is the power
right? He he even without the public's
embrace, as long as he has that that center block of a pathetic

(08:52):
maggots supporting him, he can still get away with a lot.
And I think we're gonna we're gonna see some really big
challenges to democracy and freedom in in the coming months.
And you know, like you said, it all, all of it really is because
of the the pack of hyenas festering in the White House

(09:15):
that that emboldened him. And yeah, there there's I, I see
the chance of us making through the next even year without
widespread violence becoming increasingly low.
I, I think, yeah, it's becoming pretty catastrophic.

(09:36):
It's so much of it riding on theback of a religiosity.
And that's, that's what we're going to get into.
More specifically, today we werekind of joking that, you know,
the meta of all of the crazy political discourse and you
know, you have to have the extremists, the moderates, and

(09:58):
you have to attack from all different angles.
And today, we're dialing in on our pet issue of hatred for the
religious people and their influence on politics.
You know when when you have hatein your heart, Steven, you have
to let it out. Got to dude, got to let it lash
out and strike whoever's near. And today, you know, with, with

(10:22):
Easter either just around the corner or when you're hearing
this had already passed by a fewdays or a couple weeks, who
knows? You know, I think it's.
More appropriate time. Yeah, it's I think it's I think
it's right on time. You know a lot of this news and
article shit is from months ago but.

(10:45):
Yeah, it's all still still in the air, right?
It's still there. It's still a fucking thing to
deal with. So.
And somehow, somehow it feels white hearted.
It feels like a a lesser issue than so many other things.
Yeah, the World Trade crumbling.Yeah.
So to preface our episode here, I think it's crucial to state

(11:08):
right off the bat and as brutally as possible, that the
average Christian should absolutely be crucified.
Amen. While some religions kafkaf
Islam may be more violent, thereis no hypocrisy as vile and

(11:29):
cruel as the modern Christian Republican.
While preaching love and suckingoff Jesus, they condemn non
believers, threaten Hellfire, and govern with divine
authority. They believe their moral system
is quite literally holier than thou and never hesitate to

(11:52):
subjugate those in their political past to power.
As our country is beginning to crumble under the rule of a faux
Christian and wannabe tyrant Donald J Trump, religious
influence has begun to play an increasingly pivotal role in our
fight for freedom and the futureof our nation.

(12:15):
The reality is that 71% of the US identifies with a religion.
67% of the US identifies as Christians, mostly Protestant or
Catholic, and Christians made-up72% of the entire voting turn
out in 2024. Of those, 56% voted for Trump.

(12:37):
So most voters are Christians, and most Christians voted for
Trump. It's such a disgusting,
despicable stat. I and I alone.
I want to be clear too that the 67% of the US identifies as
Christians number that's not of the 71% of the US that.

(12:58):
Identify. No, it's total.
Total. Yeah, the amount.
Total percent of the country, 67% Christian.
Yeah, I think it it, it inspiresme with such despair, like the
chance of this country ever doing anything good.
As soon as I remember that stat,yeah, I just all bets are off.

(13:19):
Like I truly have no faith in these people.
And it it's disgusting. I'm going to say disgusting so
many times, like to be ruled by such brainless hypocrites.
Like these people actually are ruling this country with divine

(13:40):
authority and never hesitant to use that authority to wield that
authority with violence despite their powerful Christian voting
block. These pathetic Republicans love
to play the victim, whining about religious discrimination
while maintaining the majority. And that's where this whole

(14:03):
White House faith office came from, Came from justifying their
supposed religious discrimination.
And I think since they love to embrace that so much, I think we
should very much make them feel discriminated under Trump's
corrupt rule. The authoritarian Christians in

(14:24):
our country are making a grab for power.
To them, man's law means nothingin comparison to God's.
Unhindered, they will shove their beliefs down our throat
and strip this country of its freedoms.
Our country languishes under theleadership of the United States.

(14:45):
Religious Republicans. The religious power structures
of the United States, specifically the dominating
Republican Christian element, must be stopped by any means
possible. To be publicly agnostic or
atheist is not nearly enough. All rational actors must fully

(15:08):
embrace an anti theist mindset in which all religious authority
influence idols and patrons mustbe fully rejected.
We must be rejectionist. We must crucify the Christians.
Amen. God bless.

(15:28):
All right, so we're going to kick this off with some general
information about this dumbass bullshit.
We got an article by Nandita Bose and Donna Sirkow on
February 6th from Reuters. Now I said it right, I'm sure of
it. Nailed it.
So we're talking about Trump started this whole White House

(15:52):
faith office bullshit and this is our article to kick it off.
Trump to create religious officein White House, target anti
Christian bias February 6 U.S. President Donald Trump said on
Thursday he would create a WhiteHouse faith office and direct
Attorney General Pam Bondi to lead a task force on eradicating
what he called anti Christian bias within the federal

(16:14):
government. To confront such weaponization
and religious persecution, todayI'm signing an executive order
to make our attorney general, who's a great person.
She's going to be a great attorney general.
Pam Bondi, the head of a task force brand new to eradicate
anti Christian bias. About time, right?

(16:37):
Anti Christian bias. Yeah.
It never heard of that one before, right.
But there's it's about time, isn't it, though?
Really. So many, so many times you hear,
but you don't hear the anti Christian bias.
The mission of this task force will be to immediately halt all

(16:58):
forms of anti Christian targeting and discrimination
within the federal government, including at the DOJ, which was
absolutely terrible, the IRS, the FBI terrible and other
agencies. In addition, the task force will
work to fully prosecute anti Christian violence and vandalism

(17:18):
in our society and to move heaven and earth to defend the
rights of Christians and religious believers nationwide.
You've never had that before, but this is a very powerful
document I'm signing. You got it.
You got it now, first time you've had it.
If we don't have religious liberty that we don't have a
free country, we probably don't even have a country.

(17:40):
But I'm announcing that I will be creating a brand new
Presidential Commission on religious liberty.
It's going to be a very big dealwhich will work tirelessly to
uphold this most fundamental right was God that saved me.

(18:00):
OK, I know we're just starting, but it's really important to
understand exactly who this Pam Bondi villain is because she's
going to be influencing a lot over the next few years, and she
is the one that is creating, officially creating the White
House Faith Office. When Republicans take back the
White House, you know what's going to happen.

(18:21):
The Department of Justice, the prosecutors will be prosecuted.
The bad ones, the investigators will be investigated because the
deep state, last term for President Trump, they were
hiding in the shadows. But now they have a spotlight on
them and they can all be investigated.
So endorsed by Trump, Pam Bondi is creating the office itself.

(18:44):
This White House Faith task force is created by the Aryan
Princess bitch Pam Bondi and. Our jails are full of people.
We want to send these people outof our country when possible.
She's an attorney, lobbyist and now a politician.

(19:05):
You may remember her or be having flashbacks of her
representing Trump as his defense attorney during the
first impeachment trial. If you got a ticket for
jaywalking, you would have more rights than the president's been
afforded. I'm sorry.
Go ahead, Tony. Yeah, I want to point out that
we've we've heard from career diplomats, nonpartisans who have
served multiple presidents and some people who were brought

(19:27):
into work for the Trump administration specifically.
So I think their concerns are are significant.
And it sounds like you're going to stick by whatever Gordon
Sondland has to say this morning.
But the testimony that has already been released supporting
him suggest that he does say there was a quid pro quo.
So I think a key question here now is he's bragged about having
a Direct Line to the president. He's bragged about being in

(19:47):
touch with the president. The president says he barely
knew him. So what's the truth?
You know, that one time where a formal House inquiry found that
he had solicited foreign interference into the 2020 U.S.
presidential election to help his re election bid and he
obstructed the inquiry itself bytelling the administration
officials to ignore subpoenas for documents and testimony.
That inquiry that reported? That Trump withheld military aid

(20:11):
and an invitation to the White House from Ukrainian President
Vladimir Solinsky in order to influence Ukraine to announce an
investigation into Trump's political opponent, Joe Biden,
and help promote A discredited conspiracy theory.
That Ukraine, not Russia, was behind the interference into the
2016 presidential election? Yes, yes, that was the crazy

(20:34):
blonde chick that defended him and would screech at the press
about how corrupt the impeachment was.
This is Pam Bondi. But President Trump has been out
there fighting for us non-stop. And if he's out there fighting
for us, we're going to fight forhim.

(20:56):
God bless you. God bless President Trump, and
God bless our great country. Prior to her being anointed as
the Attorney General, she led the legal arm of the Trump
aligned American First Policy Institute and had a bunch of
weird connections, primarily financial to the Church of
Scientology. The point is, she's not

(21:17):
principled in her beliefs, nor is she qualified for the job.
It's. Pretty cool.
Yeah, her only real qualification for being crowned
the United States Attorney General, which is the head of
the United States Department of Justice, AKA the chief law
enforcement officer of the federal government, is being an

(21:37):
absolute subservient sycophant who defended Donald Trump, her
Fuhrer. You know, when they let, I think
the real numbers, 1516 million people into our country, when
they do that, we got a lot of work to do.
They're poisoning the blood of our country.
That's what they've done. They poison mental institutions
and prisons all over the world, not just in South America, not

(22:00):
just the three or four countriesthat we think about, but all
over the world. They're coming into our country
from Africa, from Asia, all overthe world.
They're pouring into our country.
Nobody's even looking at them. They just come in.
The crime is going to be tremendous.
The terrorism is going to be. Terrorism is going to be and
then we built a tremendous pieceof the wall and then we're going

(22:21):
to build. More On February 5th, 2025,
Supreme Court Justice Clarence Trader Thomas swore Bondy into
office as the 87th attorney general On bondy's first day in
office, she did the following. I just wanted to point this
section out because since she's done all kinds of other bizarro

(22:45):
fucked abusive shit. But just to put it into
perspective, on Pam Bondi's first day, this disgusting woman
who is creating the White House faith office on her first day as
Attorney general she shut down the FB is foreign influence task

(23:07):
force. So the this is like the tenant
media, Russia paying people to do propaganda.
She shut down all foreign influence tracking by the FBI.
She shut down the DOJ's Task Force Klepto Capture, whose
mission was enforcing sanctions on Russian oligarchs in response

(23:29):
to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Then she cut back enforcement ofthe Foreign Agents Registration
Act Traitor. This is basically saying who the
fuck cares if we have people spying in the country?
Then she issued orders that directed a select group on the
weaponization of the federal government to investigate former

(23:51):
special counsel Jack Smith. So these were basically revenge
orders to. 100% revenge, there'sno other way around that.
Jack Smith was leading prosecution against Trump on
leading up to his current presidency, and these are just

(24:12):
retaliatory orders to investigate him.
Essentially, then, she required the Justice Department to
prioritize assisting with President Trump's plan for mass
deportation. Like any true Christian should,
right? They're so Christian.
Get them out of here. First day, let's set up mass
deportations, and this included.Break up families and get make

(24:38):
people upset and kick them out of their homes, yeah.
I think on that first day when they talked about going about
mass deportations, which we havealready seen has in fact started
in many ways, I forget, is it Greg Abbott from Texas?
He said, hey, if the trump will send them to us, we'll we will

(24:59):
build the camps, right? These are the Christians we're
dealing with. Also, on her first day, she
prohibited DOJ lawyers from refusing to involve themselves
in actions they considered to beunethical.
So lawyers at the DOJ were saying, hey, some of these
orders are unethical to our career and to themselves

(25:21):
personally, and she prohibited them legally from refusing it's.
Pretty, pretty wild. Yeah, then she re evaluated
consent decrees and settlements with the Justice Department to
ensure the prevention of race orsex based preferences,
diversity, hiring targets or preferential treatment based on

(25:44):
DEI or DEIA related criteria. Which is just so fucking stupid.
And of course, as soon as those planes fall to the fucking sky
because Trump's deleting all theair traffic control people, they
just blame it on the black people, basically, that that's
their MO. Is it MO modus operation?

(26:08):
Yeah. And then also, just as Jesus
taught, ended the moratorium on federal executions and ordered
the Justice Department to assiststate and local prosecutors in
their attempts to secure death sentences.
Pro-life. Pam is doing such a fantastic

(26:28):
job, I thought maybe you could say a few words.
Thank you, President, As far as the we are hearing a lot about
fraud, waste and abuse. A lot of waste and abuse, but
there is a tremendous amount of fraud.
And Elon, thank you for your partnership.
Thank you for your team. You have uncovered so much fraud
in our government and we will prosecute you.
We have an internal task force now working with every agency

(26:51):
sitting here at this table. And if you've committed fraud,
we're coming after you. Thank you, Elon, for that.
On the violent crime level, thanks to President Trump's
directive, we are seeking the death penalty again.
So all of these horrible violentcriminals that you're hearing
about around the country, they will face the death penalty
federally within our country. And the drug dealers need to get

(27:12):
out of here because we are coming after you.
We're going to have 94 great US attorneys around this country
and everyone will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the
law. Thank.
You. Thank you, President, your
directive. I couldn't have said that
better. That's that's very good.
That's very good. She's doing a fantastic job.
Thanks Pam. Yes, super Christian and we're

(27:34):
seeing this now. I I think he's a loser.
But the the Luigi guy, right? Yeah, bringing him up on
terrorism charges. And through some of these
changes they've made, the federal government under Trump
and Pam Bondi's direction are trying to secure a death
sentence conviction. It's fucking insane.

(27:55):
It was premeditated murder at best, yeah.
And that, that's the Christian power in our government right
now. Restore the death penalty and
try to get it for anyone they want.
And then just for kicks, she halted DOJ funds to sanctuary
cities. That's just hilarious.

(28:18):
But yeah, this was all Pam Bondi's first day in power.
She's a very busy, busy bee. Jesus fucking Christ.
It's that's like, OK, the question is then how?
How like when did she know? OK, like, OK, I'm, I'm, I'm

(28:38):
building the list of the things I'm going to do.
You don't get there. And then within, you know, your
8 hour fucking first day at work, you're like, all right,
let me maybe I'll do this. Maybe I was like this was all
pre planned. And.
In place of this is what's goingto happen, this is what she's
going to do. And then like how many people
were, you know, telling her like, this is this is these are

(29:02):
the things you need to make, they mean to make happen.
It's, it's, it's frustrating because Trump's so fucking
stupid. But the both the religious
groups and just the Republican establishment are very, very
keen. Right?
Like Democrats suck at leading and planning shit.

(29:25):
But during Biden's presidency, Trump had lost.
He already had a stranglehold onthe Republican Party.
Republic. The Republican Party is dead.
It is just mega. And during those four years,
like it became a meme. But Project 2025, there's
trackers on it now very much hasbeen like they they have stayed

(29:51):
very true to that plan and whileTrump.
Just checking boxes off. Yeah, well, Trump may not give a
fuck about it. The ghouls and hyenas and
vampires behind him, people likePam Bondi, Rodger Stone, Steve
Bannon, these people are very calculated and very keen and and

(30:11):
planned all of these moves very much ahead of time.
And then they put it into the the babbling idiot of Trump to
like kind of get through it or like kind of enact things, but
more just put the right people into these power positions that
they're completely unqualified for.

(30:32):
And we watch the chaos reign. Yeah, And, you know, Trump
doesn't have any problem with itbecause as far as that goes,
like, then they're the scapegoat.
Yep. If he's, if he kind of can
distance himself from it, he's all, he's all for it.
Yep, the, the lawyers that were doing this El Salvador stuff,

(30:53):
the, you know, of course, the, the courts ruled that they were
not allowed to have these planessend these, these people to El
Salvador to be imprisoned. And they sent the planes anyway.
The Justice Department, their lawyers put up terrible
arguments in court, and Trump didn't like that, so those

(31:16):
lawyers were fired. Like this is the the level of
authoritarian rule and cruelty even to their own people.
When they fail to put up a good argument, there's no loyalty.
It's a pure pragmatism in a lot of ways, and it's just these
villains in a strong, entrenchedpositions of power at this

(31:42):
point. I think it's funny, growing up,
I heard all the time people talking about all the
president's just a puppet. You know, it's all the people
around him pulling strings and like it's all these other
people, like he's just the the face and whatever.
And for the most part, yeah, sure, that's true.
Like there's this takes a whole group of people to run a country
but it's never been more blatantand out in the obvious open as

(32:08):
like literally the just dancing along while they get shit done
to support their own efforts. But he's still more than
previous, like I think previous American history, I think it
truly does rely on him like he he is more.

(32:30):
Oh, yeah, no, like they he, theyneed their, he is their the
figurehead God King. Yeah.
Unitarian Theory. His face needs to be involved.
They they want him to be king sothey can do what they want,
right? Exactly.
Yeah, so this cruel, authoritarian, hypocrite traitor
cunt has been chosen to establish Trump's White House

(32:51):
faith office. Trump delivered remarks at the
National Prayer Breakfast at theUS Capitol and used his speech
to call for unity, telling lawmakers his relationship with
religion has changed after a pair of failed assassination
temps last year. At a second prayer breakfast in
Washington, Trump struck a more partisan tone, took a victory

(33:13):
lap for getting, quote, rid of woke over the last two weeks and
announced steps to protect Christians from what he said was
religious discrimination. Quote, the mission of this task
force will be to immediately halt all forms of anti Christian
targeting and discrimination within the federal government,

(33:34):
including at the DOJ, which was absolutely terrible, the IRS,
the FBI and other agencies, Trump said.
Like a typical Trump quote, it'snot real sentences.
The words don't. Really fucking just rambles and
he just name shit and. Yeah, it's.
Terrible. It's the worst we've ever seen.

(33:55):
Yeah, for a little context, likeI don't think anyone thinks of
like the US that's a majority Christian as being like so anti
Christian, right. Like it's a joke.
The idea of discrimination towards Christians, we need to
discriminate Christians. But this I, this pretext is
laughable. Now what some of this comes

(34:17):
from, you know, we have Cash Patel leading the FBI, right?
Any accusations levelled againstme that I would somehow put
political bias before the Constitution are grotesquely
unfair. And I will have you reminded
that I have been endorsed by over 300,000 law enforcement
officers to become the next Director of the FBI.

(34:38):
Let's ask. Them total psycho writes
children books about revenge forthe king.
Total fucking wacko once. Upon a time in the land of.
Freedom. The heralds got together and
they took away the tweet by order of the Evil Queen.
The plot against the king. The plot against the King.

(35:02):
Secret. Keeper call me in the shift the.
Old Night 2. Slugs and a long, sticky silver
streak of slime. It turns out when he takes his
leadership, it was, there was, Ibelieve some hearings about it

(35:24):
prior to his leadership under Joe Biden, but it turns out
there was FBI investigations into the Catholic Church.
Are you familiar with this? No.
So this this is kind of the the pretext of it under Joe Biden's

(35:44):
leadership, the FBI was investigating the Catholic
Church. And as we both know as
conscientious American citizens,is that the president does not
direct the FBI, correct? Right.
Yes. Now, this is changing under
Trump, and it's completely shattering political norms.

(36:08):
Just today, as we mentioned, he signed executive orders to lead
DOJ investigations into people that he doesn't like his
political enemies. But historically, the FBI is not
directed by the president. Well, during Joe Biden's
presidency, the FBI had independently done some
investigation into the Catholic Church in relation to past sex

(36:32):
scandals. So they either had some
informants or undercover agents involved in the Catholic Church.
Now, Republicans, Christian Republicans, lost their fucking
minds over this. Of course, any hearing that,
they got a chance to talk about it, like Cash Patel's

(36:57):
confirmation hearings, they justwould hark on this over and over
about how their religion was being targeted and discriminated
because the federal government was having the due diligence to
investigate sexual crimes of their religion.

(37:17):
So nothing even ever really cameof the investigations.
There's not much known about it.There was no like obvious
corruption or abuses. But when Cash Patel took the
office, people like JD Vance andthem, they really could play up
this Christian targeting. And that pretext has led to this

(37:43):
White House faith office, and none of their goals have
anything to do with this pretextof discrimination.
Well, you know Steven, if just. A little back.
If they're not allowed to rape people in church, then why would
they even bother going to church?
I mean that's that's why I heardthey all go.
That's, I mean, that's what it sounds like.

(38:05):
And they they can't have, you know, Joe Biden taking that
away. How?
Dare you stop my priest from raping children?
How dare you? Pretty fucked up that's that's
that's their religious freedom to to rape and pillage.
Yeah. So Trump vowed his attorney
general would work to fully prosecute, this is very, quote,

(38:27):
fully prosecute any anti Christian violence and vandalism
in our society and to move heaven and earth to defend the
rights of Christians and religious believers nationwide.
The president did not cite any specific examples of this anti
Christian bias during his remarks, but had previously
claimed that the Biden administration had used the

(38:50):
federal government to target Christians specifically.
Trump signed an executive order on Thursday to establish the
task force and its responsibilities, which include
recommending steps to terminate violative policies, practices or
conduct. Biden's administration announced
a strategy in December for countering anti Muslim and anti

(39:11):
Arab bigotry and a similar plan to fight anti-Semitism in
September of 2023. The actions announced on
Thursday could pose constitutional question about
the separation of church and state, with the US
Constitution's First Amendment limiting government's
endorsement of religion. So like I said, the pretext of

(39:36):
protecting Christians with this faith office is all bullshit.
Yeah, the true goal is to entrench Christian authority
into the White House in a way that allows Christian influence
in the leadership of our government.
Trump, who has become the de facto figurehead of conservative

(39:57):
American Christianity, has repeatedly invoked a religious
anointing since he survived an assassination attempt last year.
Quote Many people have told me that God spared my life for a
reason. Trump has told supporters at
events across the country. The wording's just so funny,
Many people have told me. Yeah, he doesn't even believe in

(40:18):
himself. That's the the one that kills me
is like, oh, God spared my life.But the one, the other guy that
was shot behind me, was he like a firefighter or something he
got? Shot that dumb ass.
Like, but, but you know that guy's expendable.
Fuck him, God. God only loves me.
And you know, God saved me so I could restore the death penalty

(40:40):
to its former glory. Exactly.
In the last three election cycles, white evangelical
Christian voters, who make up a critical piece of the Republican
base, have supported Trump. He has embraced the conservative
Christian worldview and policiesthat speak to the bloc's anxiety

(41:01):
about changing gender norms and family patterns.
The president on Thursday also announced he will create a White
House faith office led by Reverend Paula White, who had
served as a religious advisor tohim for many years.
All right, well, let me let me just crack my knuckles here

(41:22):
we're. Into the fun stuff.
I did. I did some research here so.
To. Say no to President Trump would
be saying no to God. We command all satanic
pregnancies to Miss Kerry right now.
It is not found in Antifa and itis not found in Black Lives
Matter All which are Antichrist.I declare that President Trump

(41:44):
will overcome every strategy from hell and every strategy of
the enemy. Anytime that rises against him
will be condemned according to the word of God.
It's not OK to have an abortion.It's not OK to marry the same
sex and strike and strike and strike and strike and strike and

(42:04):
strike and strike and strike andstrike until you have victory.
It is God that raises up a king.It is God that sets one down.
And so when you fight against the plan of God, you're fighting
against the hand of God. The Supreme Court justices.
If we get two more, come on. If we get two more.
And right now I know right now we are scaring the literal hell

(42:27):
out of demonic spirits by me saying this right now because if
we get two more, we will be ableto overturn demonic laws and
decree. Never been hatred like this I've
never seen, never in my life. Principalities cannot control
this man because he surrounds himself with Christians.
He is a Christian. Have you ever asked God for

(42:48):
forgiveness? That's a tough question.
I'm not sure I have. I don't bring God into that
picture. Oh, yeah, take, take a, take a
little break there, Steve. And I got to want to break it
down here. For those who don't know, Paula
White is a terrible televangelist and a quote, UN
quote pastor who doesn't seem tobelieve the sanctity of marriage

(43:08):
applies to her and is an overallvoid of moral consciousness.
White became a personal ministerto Donald Trump after he watched
her television show, and he brought her to Atlantic City on
multiple occasions for private quote UN quote Bible studies and
has appeared on her television show.
White was part of Trump's evangelical Advisory Board

(43:30):
during his campaign for president and said in 2024 that
she owned a condo and Trump Tower in New York for 20 years.
In March 2020, amid the COVID-19pandemic, White LED a spiritual
healing fundraiser where people were encouraged to donate money
to her for their salivation. White let donors know that the
money would not go to victims ofthe disease.

(43:53):
Then in April of the same year, she had promised quote
supernatural protection and withdrew from the fundraiser
after public backlash. You can receive these seven
supernatural blessings for you and your house.
According to Exodus 23, God willassign an Angel to you.
He'll be an enemy to your enemies, he'll give you

(44:14):
prosperity, he'll take sickness away from you, he will give you
long life, he'll bring increase in inheritance, and he'll give a
special year of blessing. You're not doing this to get
something, but you're doing it in honor to God, realizing what
you can receive. For your special Passover
offering of $1000 or more, as the Holy Spirit leads, you will

(44:35):
also receive the beautiful 10 inch Waterford Crystal Cross.
Don't miss your moment to release 7 supernatural blessings
and provision into your life. Now this is all crucifiable
behavior. Every.
Every little bit of it. Terrible.
On November 4th, 2021, day afterthe election when election

(44:56):
results showed Trump was losing to Joe Biden, White appeared in
a prayer service via Facebook Live where she spoke in tongues
and repeatedly called on quote angelic reinforcement from quote
angels from Africa and South America to secure Trump's re

(45:17):
election, as well as quote an abundance of rain.
The clip went viral across the Internet and White was
ridiculed. The appointment of Paula White
to lead the White House faith office has drawn criticism from
Christian leaders, including conservative evangelicals, for
several reasons. Some critics argue that White is

(45:38):
not biblically qualified to be apastor, with some pointing out
that her role as a female pastorcontradicts their interpretation
of biblical teachings on church leadership.
It's just a little infighting. They can't get their shit
together. Yeah.
And I and you know. I highly encourage high degrees
of sexism towards female pastors.

(46:01):
Fuck yeah. No mercy.
Even more cited White's past, including multiple marriages and
alleged theft and financial scandals, as well as her taking
advantage of vulnerable believers by promising material
blessings in exchange for donations, as problematic for a

(46:21):
religious leader in such a prominent position.
They're all just problematic. Liars as scammers, dude.
It's not, you know, it's not a damnable thing.
It's just problematic. White has been criticized for
her religious beliefs by multiple theologians and
conservative evangelists, calling her a quote heretic and

(46:43):
an abomination. Additionally, she has been
criticized for claiming to have a doctoral degree when she has
no college or seminary degree. In response to her critics,
White has said I have been called a heretic, an apostate,
an adulterer, A charlatan and anaddict.
It has been falsely reported that I once filed for bankruptcy

(47:05):
and that I deny the Trinity. My life and my decisions have
been nowhere near perfect, though nothing like what has
been falsely conveyed in the recent days.
Like to point out. Worth noting.
She didn't contradict their claims at all.
At all, she said. I've never once filed for
bankruptcy. Yeah, I say burn her at the

(47:27):
stake. So worth noting along with other
televangelists, her ministry Without Walls International
Church was the subject of a 2007to 2011 Senate Finance Committee
investigation. The committee had investigated
financial improprieties that could have affected the
religious organizations tax exempt status.

(47:48):
According to the report, WithoutWalls Church spent $900,000 in
tax exempt ministry funds to paythe mortgage on the couple's
waterfront mansion, paid salaries to extended family
members and also paid for their private jet.
Nice. Without Walls International also

(48:08):
claimed in 2012 that White had stolen $600,000 in AV equipment
owned by the church to use at her new church in Apopka.
Papoka maybe? But she's never, she never filed
for bankruptcy. She actually left for that
church before they filed for bankruptcy, like the month
before. Yeah.

(48:28):
So she wasn't involved in that one.
They filed for bankruptcy after she stole the money.
It's. Different.
She ran it into the dirt. Bro, Jesus loves jets.
I don't know if he knew that, but Jesus loves private jets, he
thinks. They're really cool.
The bigger the jet, the closer to God.
Yeah, dude, they get you up there so.

(48:49):
The more private it is, the better.
You can't have a bunch of pores on your jet.
You can't get high enough. Fuck no.
Leave them on the ground in the dirt where they belong.
So Trump, inspired by his religious base, decides to
establish the White House faith office.
He has Pam Bondi lead the chargecreating it.

(49:13):
And then he gets this fake televangelist Paula White
scammer religious leader to leadthe office.
We're standing up for a persecuted Christian and so many
Christians that have been persecuted all over the world.

(49:34):
So horrible what's happened and defending religious liberty.
We had nobody fighting for our Christians in other parts of the
world that were being so incredibly destroyed, killed,
injured, hurt, but they died. So many died.
You wouldn't think that could happen in this time, in this

(49:55):
sort of modern time. I proudly created the White
House Faith office and a brand new DOJ task force to eradicate
anti Christian bias. And there is anti Christian.
You don't hear about that very much, but there is anti.
If we don't have religious liberty, then we don't have a
free country, Trump said. But the truth is, if we don't

(50:18):
have liberty from religion, we do not have a free country.
And I think Trump's infusion of Christianity into our government
leadership is absolute tyranny. 100% Amen.
So that's the end of the article.
Yeah, we have some conclusions and then some other aspects to

(50:42):
go into. How you feeling so far?
I feel. Fired up dude.
Yeah, I still feel fired up. I still feel upset.
It's still, it's still a huge bummer.
But I'm trying to channel that rage into actionable, you know,
energy, you know, because I mean, crucifying people.

(51:06):
It's got like condensed energy. It's hard work.
Yeah, it. Takes.
It takes some doing. I mean, first you got to, you
got to. Stamina.
Either build the crucifixes yourself or, you know, outsource
it and and then, you know, I'm not, you know, the, I guess the,
the quality of the construction isn't super necessary because
like once you've, you know, drive mail to the wrists.

(51:29):
Yeah, yeah. You know, like that's, that's
most of the doing anyways of it,you know.
Just the hammering. Yeah, it's all the hammering.
You know, it's a lot easier if we just go with the, the oil and
fire method or, or lions. But I think I think the most
efficient way is to take all that energy and condense it,

(51:51):
pack it down, you know, and it'stiny little packages may be
distributed by our mail system and sent to their homes.
That that's what I would do withall that energy, that white hot
fiery energy, you know, but a stamp on it.

(52:12):
Just a bunch of kid noises. In conclusion, not only has our
government been fully corrupted by Trump, Elon, and the Maggot
cult, the remaining government power and influence is up for
grabs and the Christian faction is going all in.

(52:38):
This office will operate under the skies of benefiting all
faith groups. They love to talk about how this
isn't really a Christian faith off, it's for all faith groups.
While the rhetoric of the Oval Office has made it painfully
clear this is for Christian benefit, it will inevitably be

(53:00):
abused for Christian ideologicalgain as it coincides with
Republican agenda. And I signed an executive order
making it official, and the official policy of the United
States that God created 2 genders, male and female.

(53:20):
That's not too difficult. So there's so much to celebrate
this Easter. This is really, I hope, going to
be one of the great Easters everbecause we have something going
that I don't think this country has seen in 100 years.
And as we gather with family andfriends, we'll not forget the

(53:40):
true source of our joy and our strength.
America has put our trust in God.
It will always be in God we trust.
We will never change that. You know, there's a movement to
change it. It will not happen.
We won't let that happen. Can you imagine a movement to
change that? Robert?
You're not happy about that. When you hear that, look at him.

(54:02):
He's getting angrier and angrier.
We can get angry, too. Can't we have?
No, it's never going to change. And with God's help, we can
overcome every challenge, triumph over every evil, and
restore the spirit of faith in the United States for
generations to come. We have a very simple slogan,

(54:23):
Make America Great Again. And that's exactly what we're
doing. To put it bluntly, when you boil
down the last 10 years of both the Christian and Republican
agendas, the remaining slop is the convergence over their
hatred for gays, women, atheists, Muslims, trans people,
yeah, whichever minority group is currently in their

(54:46):
crosshairs, and anyone else thatdoesn't want to suck Jesus's
toes. I find it incredibly frustrating
how much most people discount the effects of religious
institutions in our government. I think people willfully ignore
this for two primary reasons. One, they themselves are

(55:10):
religious and no one wants to goagainst their own faith even
when they know it's wrong. And two, most of the time, the
religious influence is more subtle than outright.
The influence is enacted throughindividuals who enact their
faith rather than the church's direct influence.

(55:33):
The church may tell them gay marriage is wrong and abortion
is a sin, but it will be the Christian politicians and voters
that outlaw it. While we obviously should combat
these people politically, it should be equally as important

(55:53):
to war them spiritually. Their belief, their faith, their
churches are wrong and they do not deserve safe harbor, much
less tax exempt status. The idea that the church and
state are separate is dead and the American people are in

(56:16):
denial. And while Christian influence
may often be subtle, many Christians have been emboldened
in the Trump era. Hence the rise of Christian
nationalism and the increasinglyradical messaging of many
Christian leaders. This radical political

(56:36):
religiosity has culminated into groups like Pastors for Trump,
A50 state organization that aimsto revive evangelical support
for Trump and the Republican Party.
This is from their website. Pastors for Trump is a coalition
of patriot pastors from all 50 states that recognize the

(57:00):
importance of Christians engaging in the world we live in
as the salt and light. As the spiritual leaders of our
nation, we are committed to prayfor Donald J Trump and present
our requests before him on issues such as life, marriage,
freedom of speech, and personal responsibility.
During President Trump's first term, it was very clear that he

(57:23):
was intentional to give pastors and Christian leaders a, quote
seat at the table. There has been no president in
our lifetime that has been as welcoming to Christian leaders
as Donald Trump. It's it's so funny because they
actually sound that stupid. Yeah.
Continued They say our aim is tocontinue to build the

(57:43):
relationship between Christian leaders and President Trump
during his bid for the presidency.
The founder of Pastors for Trumpis a Pastor Jackson Lame or of
Sheridan Church in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
Figures. Pastor for Trump is the
brainchild of an extremist in both religion and politics.

(58:04):
Pastor Jackson Laymeyer is a manwho celebrates the union of
these two realms. Quote I will embrace Christian
nationalism. Well, you can't.
You can't spell it out any harder than that.
Some of his other notable quotesinclude.
This first one's really good. Alex Jones did nothing wrong it.

(58:28):
Was a global. By Fauci is a mass murdering
Fauci is a mass murdering Luciferian.
He sounds I mean, if I I guess if you read it in an Alex Jones
kind of voice, anyone can sound like Alex Jones quote, Speaker
Pelosi is a demon Demon Kratz. Let's go last one.

(58:49):
January 6 equals FBI inside job.And then he also has this
Christian classic. Bring out the tanks.
Immigration moratorium. God, he loves Jesus.
All these sentiments may not yetdominate the Christian
worldview. They certainly are gaining
popularity among Republican voters.

(59:11):
According to recent 2024 Pew Research polling, many Americans
do think that even though the USUS shouldn't officially be
declared a Christian country, the federal government should
promote Christian moral values. And half of the US adults say
they think the Bible should haveat least some influence in US
laws, including 28% who say thatif the Bible conflicts with the

(59:34):
will of the people, the Bible should have more sway.
Losers. It's.
Fucking insane. It's.
So frustrating dude. Oh God.
They want man's law to reflect their God's law, but the truth
is that they don't respect either.
And they certainly don't respectus and our rights, nor should we

(59:54):
respect them and theirs. Base.
Each year on Ash Wednesday, we watch as many Christians adorn
themselves with markings of ashes upon their forehead, a
symbol of repentance and a reminder of mortality.
I merely propose that this reminder of mortality be
embraced. Fuck yeah, Waka Flocka, You know
what I mean? Yeah, bro, it makes me want to

(01:00:15):
go brick Squad when I see them. Ash Wednesday.
Ash Jesus. Now, at this point in the
episode, you're feeling a bit skeptical in your thinking.
Yeah, these Christians kind of suck, but obviously not all
Christians believe all this shitor want to destroy the country.
I will remind you, A you're wrong, B you're stupid, and C

(01:00:43):
while not every Christian might be in support of the Republican
agenda and the White House Faithoffice, the White House Faith
Office is a direct consequence of their beliefs.
It is a consequence of their religion and a consequence of
their vote. And they are indeed directly

(01:01:05):
responsible. To put it into perspective a
bit, here's some of the many things that the Christian
influence of our government has resulted in during the Trump
era. In June 2022, Republicans
overturned Roe V Wade, eliminating the federal
constitutional right to abortion.
In 2024, Protestant Congressman Eric Burleson introduced the

(01:01:29):
Life Act Conception Act, which would declare that an unborn
child would be considered legal persons.
This would include all stages oflife, including the moment of
fertilization, cloning, or othermoments at which an individual
being comes into life. Quote.
Every life is a sacred gift fromGod, deserving of dignity and

(01:01:53):
protection from the moment of conception.
End Quote. It is expected that this year,
2025, Republicans will attempt to pass the ACT through
Congress, which will result in afederal ban of abortion, so keep
your eyes peeled for that later this year.
Which is great because he made this whole thing about taking it

(01:02:13):
back to the States, and that wasyeah.
Fun for sure. Pretext.
Pretext. Pretext lies.
Yeah, yeah. Needless to say, we know they're
scheming up ways to rollback gaymarriage.
That's a given. And there's only one other group
Christians hate more than the gays, and that's trans kids.
Jesus hates trans kids. Nationwide, we've seen the

(01:02:34):
banning and burning of books, inparticular related to gender or
race. Christians love burning books.
Now here's a fun one. Remember that one time Trump had
a photo op with the Bible that he held upside down?
Well, that was during the GeorgeFloyd protest.
But Trump really, really wanted that picture in front of the
church. So when crowds of peaceful

(01:02:55):
protesters occupied Lafayette Square in Washington, DC to
protest police brutality, Trump used the National Guard and tear
gassed them all out. In the years since, it has been
revealed that Trump had asked why soldiers could not shoot the
protesters. Quote, can't you just shoot
them? Just shoot them in the legs or

(01:03:17):
something. End Quote.
I'd say that's definitionally Christian violence.
Which brings us to our next Christian villain, our
military's new leader, Secretaryof Defense Pete Hagseth.
Part time alcoholic, full time Christian nationalist.
Andrew Breitbart said politics is downstream of culture, and

(01:03:39):
he's right. Culture drives politics first.
Politics is a lagging indicator.My pastor, Chris Durkin, took it
to the next level about a year ago and said I remember my wife
and I talking about it on the way home, and I wrote about it
in the book. Culture is downstream of
religion, of faith. It, if you're devoid of faith in
believing in in God, you will find another religion and that

(01:04:00):
religion will drive your cultureand eventually drive your
politics. And in in my particular case,
the undertaking this endeavor was an an extension of a
learning process I've been on where I thought politics was
going to fix this. I read a political book in 2016.
I thought, I'm really interestedin politics.
I'm get in the arena fight for it.
And then the digger, the, the deeper I dug and I wrote a book

(01:04:22):
called American Crusade, which in that book I said, someday I'm
going to give my degree back when it's the right time.
And, and it, it wasn't, I don't think my heart was where it
needed to be. It wouldn't have had the maximum
impact, but that that was more about culture.
So it went from politics to culture.
And when you really strip it back, I mean, I, I've said this
to my kids, if I, if the Lord had called me to be a minister,

(01:04:43):
I would have. But I know that's not my
calling. But I think that's the most
powerful way you can change lives is by saving souls and by
introducing people to Jesus Christ.
And I'm hoping in this particular way, through this
education and through options that we're bringing people to
that to salvation, but and then saving our Republic in the
process. So it's a, it was a shift of

(01:05:03):
realization in my mind of what where you actually win the
battle. It's not politics, it's not even
culture. It's faith.
And it's in the classroom and it's, it's, it's reviving that
reawakening that that's going toreawaken our country.
He's the guy that leaked the warplans or the attack signal gate.
Christ, that was, that was afterwe wrote this.
Yeah, I know. Jesus, he's even got all the

(01:05:26):
cool tattoos. Well, during his confirmation
hearing, he was repeatedly pressed on whether or not he
would have followed Trump's command to shoot protesters in
the legs. He refused to say he would not
follow Trump's order. So that's just a.
Yes, and that's why he got the job.
That's just a yes. That's why he got the fucking
job. In June of 2020, then President

(01:05:47):
Trump directed former Secretary of Defense Mark Esper to shoot
protesters in the legs in downtown DC, an order Secretary
Esper refused to comply with. Would you carry out such an
order from President Trump? Senator, I was in the Washington
DC National Guard unit that was in Lafayette Square during those

(01:06:09):
would. You carry out an order to shoot
protesters in the legs. I saw 50.
Secret. Service agents to get injured by
rioters trying to jump over the fence, set the church on fire
and destroy. That sounds to me that you will
comply with such an order. You will shoot protesters.
In his book American Crusade 2020, Hegseth characterized

(01:06:30):
Americanism as being opposition to movements such as feminism,
globalism, Marxism, and progressivism.
He also equated democracy to a leftist demand and expressed
support for election rigging through gerrymandering.
To quote Screw Democrats. Not to mention he loves to
torture people for God. Now this is a bit of a longer

(01:06:52):
clip from his recent confirmation hearing, but I
think it is really worthwhile for us to hear exactly what the
leader of our military believes,especially since our president,
King Trump is so determined to lead us into war.
While Pete may have some valid points, they'd lead him to

(01:07:14):
terrible and anti Christian conclusions.
Thank you, Senator Kramer. Senator King.
Thank you, Mr. Chairman, Mr. Hessek, welcome.
Welcome to the committee. Thank you, Senator.
You've made several references to your religion today.
I share that devotion to Christianity, but I must say
I've been reminded somewhat of Saul on his way to Damascus.

(01:07:36):
You seem to have been converted over the last several weeks and
several months. You wrote in your book just last
year that but if we're going to this is the book War on
Warriors. But if we're going to send our
boys to fight, and it should be boys, we need to unleash them to
win later on. Our boys should not fight by

(01:07:57):
rules written by dignified men. Which is it?
Is it is it only boys can fight?I mean, you've you've testified
here today that you believe in women in combat, but you didn't
just last year. How do you explain your
conversion? Senator, my testimony is clear.

(01:08:17):
Writing a book is different thanbeing Secretary of Defense.
And I look forward to leading the men and women of our
military. And my comment there, Senator,
was about the burdensome rules of engagement that members of
our of our generation, men and women, have seen on the
battlefield. And one thing President Trump
changed in meaningful ways that led to meaningful developments

(01:08:38):
on the battlefield. When President Trump took
control in the first term, ISIS was raging across Iraq and is
someone who spent a lot of time there with with with other men
and women who invested in that mission.
It was a very difficult moment to see the Black Flag of ISIS
fly. And what President Trump did was
untie the hands of war fighters,changed the rules of engagement,

(01:08:59):
untie the hands of war fighters and allowed them to complete
their mission and crush ISIS. It has not just tactical
implications, operational and strategic implications, how you
allow war fighters to go about winning and fighting their wars.
President Trump understands that.
And within the laws of war and the Uniform Code of Military
Justice, we are going to unleashwar fighters to win wars so that

(01:09:22):
wars don't drag on forever, as our generation has seen.
So are you rejecting Title 18 and and Title 42, I think also
has provisions that incorporate the Geneva Convention and the
laws of armed combat. Are you saying that those laws
should be repealed? That is the law of the land

(01:09:42):
right now. Senator, we have laws on the
books from the Geneva Conventions into the Uniform
Code of Military Justice. And then underneath that you
have layers in which standard ortemporary rules of engagements
are are are put into place. We fight enemies also, Senator
as as our generation understandsthat play by no rules, they use

(01:10:03):
civilians as human. Shields so are you saying they?
Target women and. Children, the Geneva don't do
that. We.
Follow rules. We follow rules, but we don't
need burdensome rules of engagement make it impossible
for us to win these wars. They're.
Saying two different things. You're saying we follow rules,
but we don't have to follow the rules in all cases.
Is that correct? Senator, I'm making some rules.
Senator, I'm making an importanttactical distinction that war

(01:10:26):
fighters will understand that there are the rules we swear an
oath to defend, which are incredibly important and this
committee understands and helps set them.
And then there are those echelons above reality from, you
know, core to division to brigade to battalion.
And by the time it trickles downto a company or a platoon or a
squad level, you have a rules ofengagement that nobody

(01:10:47):
recognizes. And then it makes you incredibly
difficult to actually do your job on the battlefield.
That's the kind of assessment and look that an Army major will
give to this process if I was confirmed to be the.
Second boy, your quote is. True understanding your.
Quote in 2024, our boy should not fight by rules written by
dignified men in mahogany rooms 80 years ago.

(01:11:08):
That would be the Geneva Convention.
America should fight by its own rules and we should fight to
win. No or not go in at all.
Are you saying that the Geneva Convention provisions which
prove which clearly outlaw torture of prisoners do not,
should not apply in the future? Senator, how we treat our
wounded, how we treat our prisoners, the applications of

(01:11:31):
the Giovinia conventions are incredibly important.
But we would all have to acknowledge that the way we
fought our wars back when the Geneva Conventions were written
are a lot different than the asymmetric non conventional
environment of counterinsurgencythat I confronted in Iraq and
Afghanistan. I was the senior
counterinsurgency instructor in Afghanistan.
My job is to understand how the Taliban and Al Qaeda operated so

(01:11:53):
that NATO units coming in could be informed of what was
happening. They knew our rules of
engagement and when they were more restrictive they took
advantage of them and it put ourmen and women in a more
dangerous and difficult place. For.
Future wars we fight, we need tohave someone atop the Pentagon,
Sir, who understands how those ripple effects.
Well, I just want I just want tounderstand your position.
Your position is torture's OK. Is that correct?

(01:12:15):
Waterboarding, torture is is is no longer prohibited given the
circumstances of whatever war we're in.
Is that correct? Senator, that is not what I
said. I've never been party to
torture. We are a country that fights by
the rule of law and our men and women always do.
And yet we have too many people here in air conditioned offices

(01:12:37):
that like to point fingers at the guys in dark and dangerous
places, the gals in helicopters in enemy territory, who are
doing things that people in Washington DC would never dare
to do or send in in many cases. In in one of your interviews,
you said they're willing to do this.
You're talking about Donald Trump and Trump and Senator
Cruz. They're willing to do something
like water boarding if it's going to keep us safe.

(01:12:58):
Are you OK with water boarding? Senator, the law of the land is
that water boarding is not legal.
So the statement that you made you, you now recant, is that
correct? They are willing to do something
like waterboarding and it's going to keep us safe.
You you express that with approval.
Senator, I'm very familiar with that as a concept, having spent

(01:13:19):
a year at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, guarding 700 of those that
attacked us on 9/11. I just want to be clear.
Are we, are we going to abide bythe by the Geneva Convention and
the prohibitions on torture, or are we not?
Is it going to have circumstances?
As I've stated multiple times, the Geneva Conventions are what
we base our but we're what an American First national security

(01:13:39):
policy is not going to do is hand its prerogatives over to
international bodies that's makedecisions about how our men and
women make decisions on the battlefield.
America First understands we send Americans for a clear
mission and a clear objective. We equip them properly for that
objective. We give them everything they
need, and then we stand behind them with the rules of

(01:14:02):
engagement that allow them to fight decisively.
I understand America's enemies, which is why we.
Say I just have a few seconds left, Mr. if you could.
I was very disturbed in your opening statement where you you
talked about the priorities thatyou have.
We will work with our partners and allies to deter aggression,
the Indo Pacific from the communist Chinese.

(01:14:22):
There's not a single mention in this statement about Ukraine or
Russia. Is this code for We're going to
abandon Ukraine? Senator, the president, this is,
that's a presidential level policy decision.
He's made it very clear that he would like to see a end to that
conflict. We know who the aggressor is, we
know who the good guy is. We'd like to see it as
advantageous for the Ukrainians as possible.

(01:14:44):
But that war needs to. Come, you talk a lot about
deterrence of China. I would submit that Xi Jinping
is watching what we do very carefully.
If we abandoned Ukraine, that would be the strongest single
possible to Xi Jinping that he can take Taiwan without
significant resistance from thiscountry.
Jesus himself would be ashamed of their depraved cruelty.
There is no mercy. There is no turning the other

(01:15:06):
cheek nor loving your neighbor. They wrapped themselves in their
faith to shield themselves from attack while weaponizing their
religiosity for political ends. And then there's porn.
Currently there's a total of 16 states, 16, that have now

(01:15:27):
approved legislation requiring pornographic websites to ask
their users to prove that they are over 18 years old.
And while many porn websites arecombating these authoritarian
anti freedom restrictions, many sites refuse to serve the states
with restrictions, which is resulting in soft bans in some

(01:15:51):
of these states. Well, many trash religious
groups are playing a part in these laws.
Christians are certainly leadingthe way.
Now I know we we talked about this one before, but wasn't so I
know like it's been commonplace for a long time where they
public put a pop up when you first get on it.
It's like, are you 18? And you're like, yes, like all

(01:16:13):
right, you're good. But this would be like you have
to like like log in your ID. Yes to a third party that does
ID verification for the porn website for the US government
that's. Fucking insane.
Currently in Florida, I believe,I think it's active in like 6

(01:16:38):
states. But as I said, 16 states have
approved the legislation and I think it's currently active in
like 6. It's fucking insane.
Now, when it comes to immigration, you would think
Christians would gladly demonstrate God's grace and help
those in need. But did you know that God
actually hates immigrants? It's true.

(01:17:00):
Let's just say that the parable of the Good Samaritan doesn't
apply to Mexicans nowadays. Anti Did you?
I guess. Did you write that I.
Forgot I wrote that, yeah. God.
'S grace doesn't go north of theRio.

(01:17:22):
You know what happened is usually if it's something that
you wrote, I'll know it's that you wrote it because there's a
bunch of typos because you're just furiously going at it and
you just leave them because you're like, I'll get it.
I know what the fuck it. Yeah.
Nowadays, Christian nationalistswant a country for Christians by

(01:17:42):
Christians. Christian nationalists argue
against immigration on the basisthat a multiethnic society
results in a multireligious society.
And if we want America to, quote, return to our Christian
origins, we must preserve the white Christian populations
while excluding others that could jeopardize America's
future for the existence of their Christian children.

(01:18:04):
It's basically Hitler, but religious.
Yeah. You know Christian nationalism,
right? It's just about embracing
cultures that praise Christianity and excluding any
culture that might jeopardize that, which, well, for many.

(01:18:26):
I'm being generous in good faithhere.
For many, this is genuine in thesense that they truly want to
exclude others on the basis of religion.
I'd say that's like 60%, and then the other 40% use it as a
pretext to exclude based on race.
But this is what the rise of Christian nationalism would

(01:18:49):
result in it it would it would result in exclusion of non
white, non Christian people. And people like Pete Hegseth who
control our military and are Alcoholics and signal war plans
and leak them to the press on accident is a Christian

(01:19:11):
nationalist who believes these things.
Now this last one, this is just for kicks, but it certainly
highlights that are prave to hypocrisy of the Christian
political leadership. Donald Trump's former spiritual
advisor was just indicted last week for child sex crimes, and

(01:19:32):
maybe that's why he moved on to Paula White.
Probably I you know I wouldn't. Have something to do with it?
I'm sure, I'm sure there was some, you know, he was lined up
for the job and. It was a consideration, yeah,
since we do have some breaking news to take you out to just in
our newsroom. Gateway Church founder Robert
Morris has been indicted on child sex charges.

(01:19:55):
Again. Here's what we know from our Fox
4 team. Robert Morris was indicted
yesterday by an Oklahoma federalgrand jury on five counts of
lewd or indecent acts with a child.
Indictment says the abuse began around Christmas Day back in
1982, that document says. Morris quote did intentionally

(01:20:17):
touch or feel with his hand the body or private parts of CC who
is 12 years old at that time? Robert Morris, the Dallas area
mega church pastor who resigned last year amid sexual abuse
allegations, has been indicted in Oklahoma for child sex crimes
that date back to the 19. 80s but it's no big deal guys.

(01:20:40):
I'm sure he'll catch a pardon. Oh, no, we, you know, we got to,
we got to, Yeah, we got to pardon that guy.
You got to go easy on them. We got to get them back out here
so we can protect the kids. God told Trump he was forgiven,
so yeah, now. Morris is a former spiritual
advisor to President Donald Trump and Gateway, one of the
nation's largest mega churches, which has been particularly

(01:21:03):
active in politics. In 2020, Trump held a roundtable
on transition to greatness therethat was attended by then US
Attorney General William Barr and other prominent Republican
traitors. Morris faces five counts of lewd
or indecent acts with a child. Nice.

(01:21:26):
In conclusion, there's no hypocrisy as vile and cruel as a
Republican Christian. While the religious right blamed
the decay of our country on illegal immigrants, the truth is
that Christians are the true poison in our nation's
bloodstream. For those who may have forgotten

(01:21:47):
the true doctrine of their dog shit faith, I would remind you
of your precious 10 commandments.
Number one, you shall have no other gods before me.
But Republicans have developed abizarre, cult like worship of
Donald Trump as a messianic figure in American politics.
Quote I am the chosen one, says the man facing three additional

(01:22:11):
criminal trials in the coming months.
These are this from a website from the past, and I don't want
to say the website because it had some weird racist shit on
it. Oh yeah, cool.
But this is when he was facing the criminal trials.
But don't worry, he got rid of those by corruption.
OK. Yeah, OK.
Yeah #2 you shall not make any graven image, but Republicans
are making golden statues to idolize Donald Trump, and they

(01:22:35):
sell them too. #3 you shall not use the Lord's name in vain.
Somebody forgot to tell Donald Trump, Quote, if you don't
support me, Trump said at a campaign rally.
Quote You're going to be so God damn poor you're not going to
believe it. #4 Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy?

(01:22:58):
But when Trump was in office, itseems he never attended church
except for holidays, funerals, and photo OPS.
He was too busy golfing, tweeting and attending parties
instead. #5 honor your father and your mother.
In 1927, Donald Trump's father, Fred Trump, was arrested at a Ku
Klux Klan rally in New York City.

(01:23:21):
We'll give him a pass on that commandment.
Like father, like son. Also like to point out so far in
the second term he's golfed 1/3 of his days in office.
It's fucking insane. How do you destroy the world so
much and golf so much at the same time?
It's it's reckless. Really funny, as someone pointed

(01:23:42):
out, like when he was campaigning the first time in
2016, he ragged on Obama so muchfor how much he golfed.
And he was like, I'll never go. I'm like, I'm saying goodbye to
all these people that I knew with these golf courses because
I'll never see him again. And then proceeded to, in his
first term, golfed way more thanObama ever did.

(01:24:05):
I, I forget the name of the book, but there's a, there's a
whole book somebody wrote just about all the ways Trump cheats
at golf and it's supposed to be very funny.
Also, remember that time when when Obama was almost impeached
for wearing the the wrong color suit?
Yeah, for wearing khaki. A khaki suit.
Bro times have changed fast dude.

(01:24:30):
Number six, you shall not murder.
Quote, I could stand in the middle of 5th Ave. and shoot
somebody, Trump once said. And quote, I wouldn't lose any
voters. I would.
Bomb the. Out of him.
I don't know if he's done it, but he certainly thought about
it. And Trump loves to celebrate
people that mow down protesters because there's always good

(01:24:51):
people on both sides. Plus, of course, he's got the
death penalty back in action, so.
Oh yeah, he he totally cool withkilling people.
Super cool. And we just #7 bomb the fuck out
of Yemen. Oh yeah.
No one knows why. Just that's just side missions,
you know, like Grand Theft Auto.You just takes like, Republicans

(01:25:14):
love to be like, no new wars, bro.
Like, yeah, he's the president of peace.
He was the last dudes like bombed so many people. #7 You
shall not commit adultery. Is there anybody in politics
today who's committed more adultery than Donald Trump?
McMahon had an affair with a Playboy Playmate while his wife

(01:25:36):
was pregnant. He was just ordered to pay $83
million for defaming a woman he sexually.
Abused. And then he refused to stop
talking about how he didn't sexually assault her after the
courts proved that he was liablefor doing so.
And then he had to pay more money.

(01:25:56):
And if if you really want to getsome laughs in, just go to
Donald Trump's sexual abuse Wikipedia page.
One of the you know, besides grand by the pussy.
And I think it's like 18 women that have alleged assault cases
against by him against them. The the most famous case before

(01:26:16):
he ran for politics is a woman's, a woman started a I
can't remember if it was criminal or whatever.
She she started a case against him for sexual assault and she
was 13 or 14. This was before he ran for

(01:26:37):
office at all. I came to this interview on my
free will. No, there was nothing promised
to me for doing this interview. Excellent.
Yes, everything that I say at this interview will be the
truth. I met Donald Trump at some
parties I attend that I was working for Mr. Jeffrey Epstein.

(01:27:00):
There was about 3 or 4 times that I had encounters.
With Donald Trump. I was 13.
The first time that I met DonaldTrump was at a party at Jeffrey
Epstein's mansion. We were, he was, there was an

(01:27:20):
orgy going on and he was kind ofwatching off in the distance
and, and he basically asked if Icould come over and give him
give him a hand job. This guy has a a big history of

(01:27:44):
things much worse than adultery.But you know, that's just what
happens. That's just our president he
loves. He's the president of the free
world. Dude, do what you want.
And he was convicted of 34 felonies after paying hush money
to a porn star. #8 You shall notsteal.

(01:28:05):
The guy stole money from the students of his fake university,
has ripped off fake charities and was just fine.
Nearly half a billion dollars for all his business fraud.
This man has the largest crypto scam ever to the point and he

(01:28:25):
hasn't stolen the money yet but we all know the drop.
I think it's in like 2 weeks or whatever.
The first opportunity for rug pull.
It is the biggest crypto theft of all times if it goes how it's
very much expected. The people that bought into the
crypto scam got no ownership, essentially no perks, no

(01:28:45):
whatever, and it was basically adoorway for anonymous bribery
from anyone anywhere in the world.
And as that crypto scam has beengoing on, we also ended the
prosecution against all crypto thefts and digital scam stuff

(01:29:06):
like the Fbis division on cryptocurrency scams is dawn
slash gutted the Haktua girl. Her case was dropped.
He pardoned a bunch of other crypto scammers and it's all to
make way for his big scam, the scam of all scams that our our
president is doing now. Well, you know, he's got to pay.
He's got to pay all that money to the lady here.

(01:29:28):
Porn. Stars.
Yeah, That's it. Yeah. #9 you shall not lie in
four years as President Trump told 30,000 lies in office.
In the first. Term Do you know how efficient
you have to be to tell that manylies in public in one term?
That's 21 lies a day. Trump is like the Tom Brady of

(01:29:49):
lie. The lie is.
Even if he only slept 3 hours a night, that's a lie.
Every hour and and who knows howmany lies he told in private?
#10 You shall not covet your neighbor's property or your

(01:30:09):
neighbor's wife. In the infamous Access Hollywood
tape, Trump told Billy Bush thathe once met a married woman and,
quote, moved on her like a bitch.
Didn't he say also say somethingabout how he wanted to have sex
with his daughter? He said that in an interview on
Howard Stern and then again on another interview.

(01:30:31):
Well, again, in another way, youjust talk about how hot she was,
said. That if Ivanka weren't my
daughter, perhaps I'd be dating her, you know?
Oh. It's so weird.
Stop. You know what you are.
Far from protecting his daughterfrom being talked about as a sex
object, he has encouraged it multiple times, on Howard
Stern's radio show in 2004 and then again in 2006.

(01:30:53):
By the way, your daughter, she's.
Beautiful and a. Can I say this a piece of ass?
And she looks more voluptuous than.
Ever. And actually always.
She's been very voluptuous. She's almost 6 feet tall.
In May, Ivanka described herselfas a feminist while defending
her father on CBS after a scathing New York Times article
about his alleged negative treatment of women.

(01:31:15):
Is there unending commentary on the female form?
No, no, I've known. My father obviously my whole
life and he has total respect for women.
Please welcome the lovely IvankaTrump.
Still, even Ivanka seemed confused when talk show host
Wendy Williams asked Without things the two have in common,
What's the favorite thing you have in common with your father?

(01:31:37):
Either real estate or golf Donald with your daughter.
Well I was going to say sex but I can't relate that but.
I can't relate. That Donald Trump has always
been proud of his daughter. Also in the Stern 1, he talked
about how he would peek backstage at the little girls in
the swimsuits just. Walk on back there when all

(01:31:59):
these all these young girls are changing.
Yeah, that's cool. President.
Such comments might have trippedup other candidates, but Trump's
inflammatory rhetoric hasn't seemed to hurt him with
Republican voters. He's not a politician, he owes
nobody. And I know he's, he's brash and
can sound rude, but he's saying the things that we want to hear.

(01:32:21):
But he's saying the things that we want to hear.
Trump can't hold a Bible right, much less read it, much less
understand it. He's a disgrace to his pretend
faith and a traitor to this nation.
The reality is that he is a con man just like his mega church
pastors and religious donors. They destroy our country and

(01:32:42):
disgrace their God for greed. It's all a pay for prayer scam.
Just an elaborate sales pitch tosell 5999 Trump Bibles.
And the Republican Christians are the only people stupid
enough to buy the slop. No gods, no masters, crucify all

(01:33:03):
Christians. Amen.
Amen, brother Woo. You have to put that track in
there now, singing along. I just hate them so much dude.
It's he's totally infuriating. It's just embarrassing to be

(01:33:30):
alive sometimes. That they are our masters.
Yeah. I deny them, of course, but
Christian rule is, it's undeniable and it is subtle.
You know, I know we're speaking from a position of strength,
right? We're, we're being a bit

(01:33:51):
hyperbolic and very antagonistic, but it is subtle.
But religiosity, it is. The lie is the first lie these
people learn and it is the lie they tell to rule right.
Like it is how they get people to follow them and it is the

(01:34:13):
guys that they use to control them and all of the ways in
which it is influencing the government.
Even prior to this, like when wewere kids was disgusting and
hypocritical and absolutely not true separation of church and
state. But today these things are
indistinguishable. Trump and mega.

(01:34:34):
It will be whatever they want itto be.
And this includes because their voter bloc is primarily
evangelical but the country at largest Christian.
It includes manipulating Christian values to their
political ends. And they've done so efficiently
with things such as the White House faith office, which, you

(01:34:54):
know, to be frank, we're probably not going to see all
that much out of it for the nextwhatever years of his
presidency. But it's a it's a pretext to
bring in evangelical leadership and voices into his presidency.
It's for cutting deals with thattelevangelist groups.

(01:35:15):
It's, it's a way to spread immigration policy and abortion
policy to a mass of people that support it and support him and
Republican leadership. And more than anything, you
know, I know there's so many different ways to attack this

(01:35:38):
presidency and this Republican Party, and I encourage all of
those ways. But from the religious facet, I
it angers me by far the most because they do not reflect the

(01:35:58):
religion they propose they defend.
You know they they use their religion as a sword and not a
shield. Everything they do and stand for
is at odds with the things they believe.
Their philosophical views of this world and what our country

(01:36:19):
is supposed to be is in direct contradiction with the beliefs
they say they believe in. And I just cannot get over like
hypocrisy on its own. Like we all have a natural
inclination to feel like they'resomething's off when someone's

(01:36:39):
being hypocritical. Like you lose legitimacy that
the your things aren't lining upin what you say versus what you
do. But it by itself is not not
necessarily condemnable. Like you can believe in
something and not live up to a standard, but when you believe

(01:37:01):
in something and then you do things that are at odds with it
that are directly against those things, it just, it really
bothers me. Like that's a.
Crucifiable Act. I truly believe so.
Like these people, they don't have a place in our world, you

(01:37:24):
know, they want their heaven, and I think they should.
Be granted we can bring that to them.
Steven I, I do I have some good news to end this episode on to
wrap everything up please. You know it.
Fortunately, it may be too late for the listeners to scoop in on
this deal because it may be coming out after the the Easter

(01:37:47):
holiday. But it has been announced that
the Chief Faith Advisor, Paula White is selling 7 Supernatural
Blessings for Easter season gifts of $1000 or more.
For just $1000 you can get 7 supernatural blessings.
Do I get angels from Africa or heavenly brain?

(01:38:08):
Neither of we go, so let's see here.
So she bases her promise of seven blessings for the gift of
$1000 on Exodus 23, which I ironically begins with these 3
words or with these words quote.You shall not spread a false
report. You shall not join hands with
the wicked to act as a maliciouswitness.

(01:38:29):
You shall not follow a majority in wrongdoing.
When you bear witness in a lawsuit, you shall not side with
the majority so as to pervert justice and then states in this
in verse 9, you shall not oppress A resonant alien.
You know the heart of an alien, for you were aliens in the land

(01:38:49):
of Egypt. Jesus.
So that's fun. It's.
Like, purposely ironic. Yeah, so she takes God's promise
to the children of Israel and applies it today for those who
give her $1000 or more. All this you can be yours, she
says, if you bring, quote, a Passover offering to the House

(01:39:11):
of the Lord. She then relates to this
testimony from one of her followers named Alfred.
I sowed a seed as a result of the teaching of giving during
the Passover season. As a result, my unemployment
benefits were restored and increased this past week.
My family and I are being provided for.
Spiritual blessings are evident.I believe the seven blessings

(01:39:32):
are being manifested in me, and I believe the full restoration
will take place in my life, career, child, and service to
the Lord. Meanwhile, the Trump
administration is seeking to cutbenefits for the poorest
Americans, such as Alfred. But wait, there's more.
With your gifts of $1000 or more, White will send you a 10

(01:39:53):
inch high Waterford cross, plus some devotionals and an olive
wood communion set from the HolyLand.
That special set contains unleavened bread and grape juice
from the Holy Land, 2 beautiful olive wood communion cups and a
booklet, her advisement advertisement says.

(01:40:13):
With these items in hand, quote,you can join Paula in taking
communion during our special Good Friday online global
communion service. It's on Easter.
This woman has a a political position in our government and
they're bragging about taking people, taking $1000 for a
blessing from a man on unemployment.

(01:40:36):
Now I will say what I just read here is from Baptist, it's from
Baptist News Global and they arethey are torching her.
God. They they are like, hey, this is
fucking ridiculous. Imagine being a Christian that
condemns other Dumber Christians.
I'm the smartest dumb ass in theherd.
It's so. Crazy.
At least I'm not this fucking crazy.

(01:40:56):
Yeah, holy shit. Oh, that was funny.
