Right Wing Bonus Tracks: The Criminalization Of God’s Government

  • Ryan Helfenbein admits that the Biden administration has released a proclamation recognizing Transgender Day of Visibility for the past several year, but he is nevertheless outraged that the administration do so again this year when it fell on Easter, saying that doing so was an intentional “affront to the Christian faith.”
  • Joshua Feuerstein declares that he doesn’t know “one child that was spanked … that turned out transgender.”
  • We’re actually surprised that it took this long for unhinged conspiracy theorists/virulent antisemites Rick Wiles and Stew Peters to team up.
  • Evan Kilgore proclaims that “a Christian Theocracy would un-ironically and inevitably help make America a much better place”: “America should 100% be a Christian nation and our laws should honor God’s Word.”
  • We have no idea what this statement from Jack Hibbs is supposed to mean: “Man’s politics is the criminalization of God’s government. One is by man and the other is of God.”
  • Finally, did you know that there is a reference to Donald Trump in the fourth stanza of The Star-Spangled Banner? Of course you didn’t, but fortunately “prophet” Johnny Enlow is here to reveal it.
