Brooklyn Pastor Robbed of $1 Million in Jewelry While Preaching

Brooklyn’s Bishop Lamor Miller Whitehead is a politician and religious leader, and he’s the pastor and founder of Leaders of Tomorrow church.

I’m not a member of any organized religion, but according to my personal theology the hottest parts of hell are reserved for politicians and preachers.

These professions pay modest salaries but by hook or by crook, too many preachers and politicians retire as millionaires. Who knew that serving the electorate or serving a congregation could be such a lucrative endeavor?

I’m not a prophet, but you don’t need the gift of discernment to realize that Bishop Whitehead is a corrupt politician and a crooked pastor to amass such tremendous wealth.

The flashy Brooklyn minister infamous for wearing designer duds and brilliant bling was robbed along with his wife of more than $1 million while he was preaching at his church Sunday.

Three avenging angels entered, the church, held a gun to the pastor while he was preaching, and ripped of the jewelry from the humble servant of God.

The brazen thieves treated the bishop with too much deference, they should have punished him for such an ostentatious display of wealth by not only ripping off his jewelry, but forcing him to take of his designer outfit and left him naked before his congregation. 

There is No Place for Proud & Independent Women in the Evangelical Church

“Evangelical women have long attended church at higher rates than evangelical men. But today that gap is narrowing, not because more men are coming but because more women are leaving. Such women are increasingly likely to ‘deconstruct’ their faith or identify as ‘nones’—a rising population of the religiously disaffiliated.”

It’s easy to convince the LGBTQ community that they are not welcome in the evangelical movement. While society at large, and even most conservatives, accept marriage equality and the intrinsic value of gays and lesbians, homophobia still runs rampant in evangelical churches and colleges.

It’s only self-hatred and an irrational fear of damnation that keeps closeted gays in evangelical churches while their pastors demonize homosexuality from the pulpit.

It’s easy to convince the Latino community that they are not welcome in the evangelical churches. The mainline Protestant churches and the Catholic Church have outreaches to immigrants, and they are in the frontline of the battle for racial equality. Racism runs deep in evangelical circles, and most evangelicals believe in the Republican heresy that our country is being invaded by rapists, gang bangers, and other criminals from Mexico and Central America.

It’s only a deep desire to assimilate that makes immigrants remain in evangelical churches where their culture isn’t appreciated or valued.

It’s easy to convince African Americans that they are not welcome in predominantly white evangelical congregations. Trumpism, the new religion of white evangelicals, is synonymous with racism. Evangelicals have demonized the BLM movement and civil rights organizations.

Only Uncle Toms remain in evangelical churches, when they know damn well that most of their brethren hope and pray that heaven will be segregated.

But it’s more difficult to convince women to leave the toxic environment of evangelical churches. The fair sex is welcomed in evangelical churches, as long as they realize that according to the Bible, they should be subservient to men, especially their husbands and religious leaders.

I urge women to join Latinos, African Americans, and the LGBT community in leaving the undemocratic and unchristian evangelical movement.

Metropolitan Police Officer Michael Fanone Calls Josh Hawley a ‘Little Bitch’

Missouri Senator Josh Hawley famously gave a raised fist salute to pro-Trump protesters outside of the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, while safe behind a cordon of law enforcement officers.

Hawley imagined that his raised fist salute would make him look as bad ass as the Oath Keepers and Proud Boys, but that iconic photograph has come to represent his cowardly and treasonous behavior.

Michael Fanone who worked for the Metropolitan Police Department of the District of Columbia from 2002 to 2021 called Missouri Senator Josh Hawley a “little bitch” after the January 6 committee concluded their hearing last night.

Fanone was dragged by a mob down the Capital steps, beaten with a pipe, stunned with a Taser and threatened with his own gun during the January 6 insurrection. If anyone can recognize a little bitch, it’s a warrior like Fanone who put his life on the line defending Congress, including little bitches like Hawley.

Last night the House January 6 committee played a video of Hawley running to safety inside the Capital building like a little bitch. That’s the real Hawley, not the little punk raising his fist in solidarity with the insurrectionists. When the history books are written, they will describe Hawley as a trick ass bitch and Fanone as a brave warrior.

Georgia Evangelicals Prefer the Moral Degenerate Herschel Walker Over Statesman Raphael Warnock

Sen. Raphael Warnock (D) is running for reelection in Georgia.

Warnock is the senior pastor of the Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, Georgia, Martin Luther King Jr.’s former congregation. The tireless man of faith has continued in his post at Ebenezer while serving in the Senate.

You’d think that a man who serves God as a Baptist minister and serves his community as a Senator would have the blessing and endorsement of white evangelicals.

But alas, the vast majority of evangelicals in Georgia are supporting the evangelical Republican candidate, Herschel Walker.

Walker, who was endorsed by former President Trump, is a moron, who is ethically, morally and intellectually unqualified to serve as senator.

Walker resembles the moral degenerate Donald Trump in many ways:

Like his orange messiah, Walker is a pathological liar. He falsely claimed he was an FBI agent and police officer. He falsely claimed he graduated from the University of Georgia. He falsely claimed to own a drapery business. He falsely claimed that his food company, that has only eight employees, was the largest minority-owned food company in the United States.

Like Trump he is an idiot. He believes that the fact that monkeys aren’t extinct is prove that evolution is false, since “evolution teaches humans evolved from monkeys.” He is a climate change denier who recently uttered incoherent remarks in which he claimed that America’s “good air” moves over to China, while China’s “bad air” “moves over to our good air space.”

Like Trump his personal life is messy. Walker has so many illegitimate children that until recently he hadn’t publicly acknowledged, that he makes Nick Cannon look like a celibate monk.

Herschel Walker is a symbol of the moral depravity and intellectual inferiority of evangelical Republicans.

Georgia, please do the right thing and elect Raphael Warnock as your senator.

Biden’s Disastrous Fist Bump with Saudi Crown Prince MBS

Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud, colloquially known as MBS, the crown prince, deputy prime minister, minister of defense of Saudi Arabia, is for all intents and purposes the dictator of Saudi Arabia.

In 2018 he authorized the torture, murder and dismemberment of the body of Saudi journalist and Washington Post columnist, Jamal Khashoggi.

In a 2019 Democratic debate Joe Biden vowed that the United States would teach dictators a lesson by punishing Saudi Arabia and making MBS a pariah.

Fast forward a few years, and Biden is now the president of the United States, the price of gasoline is through the roof, and he makes a pilgrimage to Saudi Arabia to ask MLB to produce more oil.

There was no way that Biden could avoid physically greeting MBS, so he opted for a fist bump over a handshake, betting that it would seem less friendly than a handshake.

What a disastrous calculation. The image that was published in just about every newspaper in the world depicted a frail 79-year-old president fist bumping a young and vibrant 36 Saudi prince. It’s such an incongruous image, most people were thinking, “who thought Gramps to fist bump, and does he even realize what he’s doing?”

A 79-year-old codger fist bumping is as disconcerting as men greeting each other by holding each other testicles, as was the custom in the days of the Old Testament.

A fist bump is more intimate than a handshake, people will shake hands with people in a business setting, but they are more likely to fist bump their friends at a party or other informal setting. Why is Biden being so jocular and intimate with a murderous dictator?

Biden, for the love of God, don’t ever fist bump anyone again, not for COVID, or for any other reason.

Biden Must Announce He’s Not Running for Reelection Now

The likelihood that President Joe Biden will have serious primary challengers is rising as his polling numbers continue to sink, inflation continues to rise and his cognitive skills continue to decline.

A serious primary challenge to a sitting president is rare, but then again, we’ve never had a septuagenarian president who’s manifestly physical frail and cognitively impaired.

In 1980 President Jimmy Carter was able to successfully fend off a primary challenge by Senator Ted Kennedy, but the effort left him weak and battered and he ultimately lost to Ronald Reagan.

There is a slim to zero chance that a cognitively challenged Biden will come to his senses, announce that he’s not running for reelection and thereby avoid a contentious battle for the nomination. Biden has white privilege up the wazoo, and too much pride to do what’s good for his party and the country.

It’s becoming increasingly likely that Donald Trump will announce that he’s running for president before the mid term elections. I would advise Democrat presidential hopefuls like California Gov. Gavin Newsom and Illinois Governor J. B Pritzker to do likewise.

It takes years to mount a successful presidential campaign, and it’s imperative that serious presidential hopefuls declare their candidacy as soon as possible.

Biden is a stubborn imbecile and he doesn’t deserve any deference or respect, I beg the likes of Newsom and Pritzker to begin their presidential campaigns now.

Democrats and democracy itself can’t survive a Joe Biden or Kamala Harris 2024 presidential campaign.

Evangelical Pastor John MacArthur Covers up Cases of Sexual Abuse and Sexual Assault in His Congregation

John MacArthur is an 83-year-old non-denominational pastor and author known for his internationally syndicated evangelical teaching radio and television program “Grace to You.”

MacArthur doesn’t rely on interesting anecdotes or spell-binding oratory, he is an expository preacher and his sermons are liberally sprinkled with chapter and verse.

The elderly pastor wears a suit a tie, he hasn’t adopted the casual wear of most of his ministerial colleagues, and he doesn’t have an endorsement deal with clothing manufactures like some of his brethren.

He is a dour-looking evangelical godfather and evangelical leaders are afraid to distance themselves from him, even though credible accusations have been levied against him, including allegations of covering up sexual abuse and child molestation cases. Why evangelicals may be fearful of distancing themselves from John MacArthur – Baptist News Global

He reminds me of the moral degenerate and politically corrupt Donald Trump, Republican leaders are afraid to distance themselves from him because it means they would lose influence and power.

MacArthur gets away with covering up cases of sexual abuse and child molestation, because females are the victims of almost all of these crimes, and in evangelical circles they are considered second-class citizens.

If two men kiss in a movie or TV show evangelicals get their panties in a twist, but if women parishioners are sexually abused by clergy its swept under the rug.

MacArthur is reprehensible, and he’s representative of the entire evangelical movement, sick to the core.

Twitter Should Ban Jesus Tweets

Hardly a week goes by that a biblical verse or an invocation of Jesus isn’t trending on Twitter. This is unacceptable. Period.

Twitter should strive to make its platform free from the noxious virus of organized religion, it shouldn’t be a virtual home for religious myths and fables.

Everyone believes that their deity and the prophets of their faith are immune to the laws of physics and common sense, and that every other religion is nothing but superstition and nonsense. Twitter shouldn’t discriminate and the social media behemoth should assume that all religions are nonsense and ban all religious tweets.

Twitter has algorithms in place to detect and delete tweets promoting QAnon conspiracy theories, racism, ant-vaccine nonsense and homophobia. Considering that evangelical Christianity is synonymous with Trumpism, white nationalism, homophobia and xenophobia it’s incumbent upon Twitter to make its platform Jesus free.

Evangelicals are free to turn the loving and merciful Jesus of the Gospels into a homophobic and misogynist tyrant on their social media platforms, but the world’s premier microblogging site should be Jesus free.

Evangelicals Should Love, Accept and Support the LGBTQ Members of Their Churches

The Public Religion Research Institute released a study on sexual orientation and religion.

According to this study 80 percent of white evangelicals said they did not have any LGBTQ people in their friendship network.

I’m betting that some of the white evangelicals who claimed not to have any LGBTQ friends are themselves gay or lesbian. When same-sex love in condemned from pulpits as sinful, unbiblical and unnatural, I can understand why gay evangelicals would be afraid to come out to their fellow congregants, family, friends and even anonymous poll takers. The truth is that there are gays and lesbians in the choirs, leadership and membership of evangelical churches.

If closeted evangelicals realized that there are just as many LGBTQ persons in their churches as there are in society at large, maybe they would demand that their ministers stop their homophobic rhetoric.

Even though women and gay men compromise most of the membership of many black evangelical houses of worship, many black pastors condemn homosexuality from the pulpit, when the choir lofts behind them are filled with gay singers and musicians and the church members who are shouting “Hallelujah” the loudest are gay.

Enough with the unbiblical hypocrisy, self-hatred, homophobia and fear mongering. Evangelicals should love and accept the gay members of their churches.

Church Neighbors Complain Illuminated Cross is a Health Hazard

Although 70% of the Norwegian population are members of the Church of Norway, only 2% attend church regularly and up to 25% of the population is non-religious and do not believe in either God or other higher powers.

But Christians in general and evangelicals in particular are a divisive and disruptive force even in secular countries. Practicing evangelicals may be a minority in Norway, but they cause problems way out of proportion to their minuscule numbers.

An Evangelical Lutheran Church in Skien is a disruptive force in its residential neighborhood. Neighbors are complaining that the light from the cross on top of the church tower is too bright and constitutes a health hazard.

Christians are supposed to be a light to the world, they are called upon to magnify the light of Christ’s love, compassion and peace. But evangelicals, especially in America, have turned their backs on the light of Jesus, and are blinding society with the neon light of extremism and religious hucksterism.

The light of the evangelicals doesn’t warm the soul and it doesn’t illuminate the truth, on the contrary it sears the soul and blinds us to the beauty in the world.

The Skauen church in Skien should replace their illuminated cross with a simple wooden cross, they should seek to minister to their neighbors instead of antagonizing them.

Would You Buy Trump’s Picture Book ‘Our Journey Together’ for $999?

Trump’s coffee table picture book “Our Journey Together” was released earlier this year with a hefty price of $75, or $230 for an autographed copy. It features photographs from his time in the White House, with captions written by Trump. I haven’t read the accursed thing, and I have no plans to do so, but I’m guessing the captions include a lot of superlatives.

It’s no surprise that the book sold out of its initial printing of 200,000 copies, Trump sycophants have enough discretionary income to buy anything related to their messiah.

Trump never misses an opportunity to grift his followers, and “Our Journey Together” has been repackaged in a red cover with his John Hancock inside the book. This “special edition” sells for $999, and it includes several new photos. Marks also get “a signed copy of a book written by Donald Trump Jr. and a MAGA hat.

The only thing special about this edition of Trump’s picture book seems to be that it includes a few more pics, and the novelty of the autograph inside the book, as opposed to the cover. There’s a sucker born every minute.

I’m still waiting for the grifter-in -chief to publish a book of his tweets, it would outsell the bible in red states, and he could sell it for over a thousand bucks.

There is no room in my library for a picture book with captions written by a functional illiterate twice-impeached former president, and a book ghostwritten for his idiot son.

Trump Endorsed Illinois Gubernatorial Candidate Says ‘Let’s Move On’ Hours After Highland Park Massacre

Less than two hours after the Fourth of July mass shooting in Highland Park, Darren Bailey, the Trump-endorsed gubernatorial candidate in Illinois, uttered this reprehensible statement:

“Friends, let’s pray for the law enforcement and even the organizers of this parade, The shooter is still at large. So, let’s pray for justice to prevail, and then let’s move on and let’s celebrate the independence of this nation.”

Bailey’s first inclination was to pray for law enforcement and the organizers of the parade, instead of the victims of the Trump-supporting killer.

Bailey’s comments weren’t meant to console the victims, it was a political statement meant to express his solidarity with law enforcement.

Two hours after the latest in an endless barrage of mass shootings, Bailey was already calling for a grieved community to “move on.”

And then of course, in an attempt to demonstrate his fealty to evangelicals he called on people to pray for justice to prevail.

How many times have we seen this reaction from Republican politicians in the aftermath of a mass shooting: Move on there’s nothing to see here, and a ritual offering of thoughts and prayers.

We must not move on. We must express sympathy for the victims, and take active measures (gun control, increased access to mental health services) to make sure there won’t be many more victims.

Finally, let’s not insult a grieving community by offering useless “thoughts and prayers” after a tragedy.

Life on Earth Will be Paradise After Evangelicals Disappear in the Rapture

Evangelicals believe in the Rapture of believers, where born-again Christians around the world will taken up to the clouds to meet Jesus prior to the unleashing of apocalyptic events that will make the biblical flood look like a relaxing session in a Jacuzzi.

Even secular Americans are familiar with images that depict the Rapture like empty pile of clothes in cars and planes whose drivers and passengers have suddenly disappeared. They may not know the meaning of the deity of Christ or be familiar with the doctrine of salvation by faith, but they’ve heard about the Rapture.

The word “rapture” doesn’t appear in the King James translation of the Bible, and until relatively recent times most Christians didn’t believe in a literal and physical Rapture of the Church.

Modern day evangelicals have a Holy Ghost orgasm every time war breaks out, an earthquake kills thousands or a pandemic devastates a population, because they believe these are the signs of the end times that were prophesized to take place before the return of Jesus.

They don’t have any sympathy for the suffering of unbelievers, and they consider anyone who isn’t an evangelical an unbeliever, including not only Muslims and Jews but Catholics and mainline Protestants.

If evangelicals believe in crappy science fiction nonsense like the Rapture, we shouldn’t be surprised they believe in crazy conspiracy theories like the Big Lie or that the world is controlled by a cabal of Satan worshipping pedophiles.

Evangelicals believe that after they’re raptured life on Earth will be hell. But the fact is that life would be paradise without the homophobic, misogynist, vengeful, hateful and intolerant a-holes. The horrors of the Tribulation would be a small price to pay for getting rid of evangelicals.

Dystopian Nightmare: Rape Victim, 10, Refused an Abortion

A 10-year-old girl who became pregnant after being raped was refused an abortion. The dateline for this article isn’t Iran, Saudi Arabia or 1950’s America. This misogynist nightmare happened in Ohio, the heartland of America, and the child who was six weeks pregnant was forced to travel with her parents to Indiana to obtain an abortion. This is the dystopian reality in post-Roe America.

This will soon be the harsh reality for millions of Americans, half of all states are expected to ban or severely restrict abortion rights.

Christian zealots control the Supreme Court and the Republican Party, and like all religious fundamentalists they view women and girls as nothing more than orifices for male sexual gratification and vessels for giving birth. For them it’s natural for a pre-teen girl to be pregnant, and they believe she shouldn’t be robbed from giving birth, the greatest achievement of any female.

Organized religions have been patriarchal and misogynist since time immemorial. According to historians and biblical scholars Mary was 12-14 years when she gave birth to Jesus, and in evangelical circles it’s not uncommon for males to take very young brides.

Evangelical Christians are the minority in America and it’s an outrage they have such an outsized influence in our secular democracy. A 10-year-old pregnant child shouldn’t be forced to travel to another state for an abortion in the Land of the Free and Home of the Brave.

Let’s make America America again, and vote these undemocratic conservative Republicans out of office. The life of your young daughter may depend on it.

A Second Trump Term Will Make the Apocalypse Look Like a Sunday School Picnic

The first time Donald Trump ran for president, he did it to boost his brand, and his presidential campaign was the most audacious publicity campaign in history.

Trump had no expectations of winning, he had nothing but disdain for his political opponents, and he considered it the ultimate in slumming for a billionaire to compete with politicians for a political office.

Trump was shocked when he actually won, and he came to the presidency with no political agenda or ideological vision. The grifter-in-chief used his position as president of the United States and Leader of the Free World to enrich himself, seek vengeance on his enemies and grift his followers.

Trump may soon announce his candidacy for the presidency, and this time his motivation will be to avoid prosecution. He is banking on the belief that the Attorney General of the United States Merrick Garland won’t have the guts to indict a former president and current presidential candidate.

This time Trump will run with the expectation of winning, regardless if his opponent is Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton or Kamala Harris. His second term will be a nightmare of vengeance, pillaging, and grifting. His second term will make the apocalypse look like a Sunday School picnic.

Creepy White Evangelical Couples Brandish ‘Don’t Abort. We Will Adopt Your Baby’ Signs

Following the Supreme Court’s devastating ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade, protestors on both side of the abortion debate attended rallies and protests. The passion that the abortion issue elicits was illustrated in the many homemade signs demonstrators held high.

Photographs of Stepford couples brandishing signs stating “Don’t Abort. We Will Adopt Your Baby” went viral on Twitter. The prospect of these creepy ass white couples adopting a baby is a great premise for a Stephen King novel.

These signs perfectly illustrate the hypocrisy of white evangelicals, and they demonstrate that virtue signaling isn’t reserved for the left only. There are more than 400,000 children are languishing in foster care in the United States, why haven’t they adopted children already?

Thanks to the Supreme Court’s execrable ruling in a few years there will be a million children suffering in foster care.

If evangelicals really cared about pregnant women and girls who are torn about giving birth because of diverse reasons: victims of rape or incest, living in poverty, emotional instability, medical problems, etc., they wouldn’t add to their anguish by brandishing their taunting signs.  They would skip the rallies, stay home and look after their own children.

Biden Ranks Near the Bottom of List of Presidents from Best to Worst

Where does Joe Biden rank in the list presidents from best to worst? He’s not at the bottom of the list with the likes of Richard Nixon, Donald Trump and Andrew Jackson, and he’s not at the top with heroes like Abraham Lincoln, George Washington and John F. Kennedy.

Biden doesn’t have the eloquence of Barack Obama, the wit of John F. Kennedy, the charisma of Ronald Reagan, the courage of Abraham Lincoln or the mastery of the Senate of Lyndon Johnson.

What Biden does possess is a penchant for plagiarism, a well-documented predilection for fondling young girls and a stubborn streak a mile wide. Biden’s liabilities, especially his declining cognition skills, rank him just above the aforementioned losers at the bottom of the list.

If Biden had any self-awareness, he would realize that he became president only because his opponent was the reprehensible, execrable and demented Donald Trump. He would acknowledge that time takes its toll on all of us, and his mental acuity has diminished to the point where he isn’t qualified to be the president of the Bingo Club at a nursing home.

Biden is the embodiment of the Peter Principle, and he might have ranked in the middle of the list had he been elected president a couple of decades ago when he was still mentally competent.

Thanks to Trump’s Supreme Court America Will be Flooded with Unwanted Babies and Unneeded Guns

The Trumpian Supreme Court overturned almost 50 years of federal abortion rights in its execrable decision on Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization.

Thirteen states have trigger laws that will soon make abortion illegal, and many other red states are expected to enact laws that outlaw abortion. Bottom line, abortion will be illegal in about 25 states.

This egregious ruling robs women of sovereignty over their own bodies and will result in tens of thousands of unwanted births.

Middle class and affluent women won’t be as severely impacted as poor women, they can afford to take time off from work and travel to a state where abortion is still legal. But poor women may not be able to afford to take time off from work and travel to another state.

According to the latest census the population of the United States is 329 million, with 37 million citizens living in poverty. The atrocious Dobbs ruling will add multitudes to the poverty rolls.

A week earlier the far-right Supreme court ruled that the Constitution protects an individual’s right to carry a handgun in public for self-defense.

There are estimated to be over 400 million guns in the United States between police, the military, and American civilians. Thanks to the Supreme Court’s ruling even more citizens will be walking around packing heat. The Wild Wild West was never as chaotic, dangerous and uncivilized as modern-day America.

Thanks to Trump’s Supreme Court we will have millions more unwanted babies, and millions more unneeded guns.

Outrage: Supreme Court Overturns Roe v. Wade

“The Supreme Court on Friday overruled Roe v. Wade, eliminating the constitutional right to abortion after almost 50 years in a decision that will transform American life, reshape the nation’s politics and lead to all but total bans on the procedure in about half of the states.”

The New York Times

The January 6 Committee Hearings have exposed in stark relief how close the authoritarian Donald Trump’s machinations came to keeping him in power in spite of his landslide loss to Joe Biden. We are living in perilous times and we can’t take anything for granted, not democracy or our constitutional rights.

This is a dark age in the history of our democracy, this execrable ruling may be a precursor of horrors to come. Today the far-right Supreme Court dealt a crushing blow to women’s rights, will they strike down marriage equality next?

Welcome to the Handmaid’s Tale America, racists and Christian nationalists and far-right reactionaries have taken over the Supreme Court and the Republican Party.

These religious conservatives are in the minority, the majority of Americans wanted Roe to remain the law of the land. The vast majority of Americans support sensible gun control laws, but yesterday the Supremes struck down New York’s law limiting guns in public.

To hell with fascist red, white and blue fake patriotism, America is a rainbow country. America is a “live and let live” democracy, and we must take our country back from white evangelicals, far-right Justices, and Trumpian Republicans.

White Evangelical Ministers are Fluffers for Trump

Kevin Smith, an African American Baptist pastor, criticized his fellow pastors for being whores for twice-impeached former President Donald Trump during a speech on the first day of the annual Southern Baptist Convention.

The Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) is the world’s largest Baptist denomination, and it was organized in 1845, when it split from northern Baptists over the issue of slavery. The SBC was strongly opposed to its abolition.

Almost two centuries later racism is still firmly entrenched in the SBC; many SBC ministers got their panties in a twist when Barack Obama was elected president in 2012.

Kevin Smith demonstrated what it means for a prophet to speak truth to power, he chastised the SBC for whoring themselves to the racist Donald Trump at their annual gala.

The honorable Smith compared Trump-supporting ministers to whores, I would compare them to fluffers. A fluffer is a person employed on a pornographic film to ensure that the penis of a male actor remains erect.

White evangelical clerics are ever-loving fluffers, their main focus is to make sure Trump’s enormous ego remains erect. They are more concerned with fluffing the vain, racist, vindictive, petty steaming pile of human shit, than they are in glorifying Jesus Christ.

Is there anything more pathetic than being a fluffer for Trump?

Mike Pence a Hero? Hell to the no!

In the January 6 committee hearings Mike Pence is being depicted as a hero for his refusal to obey Donald Trump’s unconstitutional demand that he to reject key electoral votes on Jan. 6, 2021.

Pence doesn’t deserve a place in the Mount Olympus of American patriots for dutifully performing his ceremonial role on Jan. 6, 2021.

Pence is not a hero, he’s a sniveling sycophant, an egregious enabler and a yellow-bellied yes man.

If Pence had smidgeon of the courage of the police officers who protected him and his congressional colleagues on Insurrection Day he would testify before the January 6 committee to ensure that Trump never becomes president again.

Pence is still an ineffectual wimp, witness his answer to Larry Kudlow when he asked him if he’s ever seen a president say as many falsehoods as Joe Biden. “Never, in my lifetime”, responded the great man of courage and integrity.

Pence was by Trump’s side when the twice-impeached former president uttered tens of thousands of false or misleading claims during his tenure, and yet he has the temerity to say that Biden is a bigger liar than the pathological liar and chief proponent of the Big Lie.

Pence a hero? Hell to the no!

Joe Biden’s Bike Fall a Timely Reminder He’s Too Old to Run for Reelection

President Joe Biden tumbled when he tried to dismount from his bike at the end of a ride Saturday at Cape Henlopen State Park near his beach home in Delaware, but he insisted he wasn’t injured.

Biden’s $599.00 Trek FX 1 Bide was tricked out to the max with a ton of accessories, including a wireless computer, a coiled cable lock, a bottle cage, and a rear-view mirror attached to the handlebars.

But the accessory that the accident-prone septuagenarian really needs are training wheels.

A reporter caught Biden walking gingerly out of church later that day, and asked him if he was OK, and he “hopped” a millimeter off the ground to “prove” he was just fine.

Biden is far from OK; his diminished mental acuity and physical agility should make him reconsider running for reelection.

Biden needs physical therapy for balance training and strengthening of his muscles and he would be well-advised to engage in brain training games to improve his cognition skills.

Biden rides his bike, with his retinue of Secret Service in tow in an attempt to prove he’s healthy, but he’s not fooling anyone. Not a good look, even Brad Pitt looks awful silly wearing a bike helmet.

Evangelicals Are an Existential Threat to Democracy

Evangelical Christians prioritize their “individual god-given rights” over love thy neighbor.

This self-centered sentiment was exposed during the pandemic, evangelicals took pride in refusing to obey mask and vaccine mandates that were put in place by medical experts for the good of society. They trust in Jesus to protect them from the coronavirus, and to hell with the faithless masses who don’t abide by the “Jesus is my vaccine” principle.

It’s easy for them to adopt this egocentric attitude when they consider everyone outside their tent godless sinners unworthy of the almighty’s protection.

Evangelicals are the largest and most pernicious cult in America, and their ultimate goal is to overthrow our democracy and establish a Christian nationalist theocracy.

The “we are God’s chosen people” narrative isn’t confined to COVID narratives. Under a Christian nationalist regime there wouldn’t be any legal protection for religious minorities, gays and lesbians and immigrants. Universal healthcare would be abolished, abortion clinics would be burned to the ground, and universities would be closed down. Evangelicals are an existential threat to our democracy and liberty, and we must fight these selfish bastards with the same energy that we fight Nazis and other racist organizations.

PAC That Destroyed Madison Cawthorn Claims Lauren Boebert Was an Escort & Had 2 Abortions

“The American Muckrakers PAC, Inc. issued a press release claiming Rep. Lauren Boebert was an unlicensed paid escort and had two abortions. The release also claims Boebert met senator Ted Cruz in Aspen, Colorado through an introduction by a Koch family member and ‘client,’ and that Cruz donated ‘at least $136,250.00 to the Boebert Campaign and helped her raise large sums of money during trips Boebert made to Texas.’

Rep. Boebert responded to the allegations by tweeting: ‘Fact Check: Not true. Fake News. Four Pinocchios. Also… Y’all need Jesus!’ To which American Muckracker’s PAC replied, ‘No. Second. Term. For. Boebert. If it’s fake news, then sue us.’”

BoingBoing.Net

These salacious allegations haven’t been confirmed by a major media outlet, but I wouldn’t dismiss them out of hand. After all, the American Muckrakers PAC leaked lurid photos and creepy videos of former Rep. Madison Cawthorn that directly resulted in his primary defeat.

Boebert calls the allegations that she was a paid escort and had two abortions “fake news”, but this is the pathological liar who is the leading proponent of the Big Lie in Congress.

I believe the allegations made by the PAC; Boebert’s Pinocchio nose is longer than any dildo she employed as an escort.

If a congresswoman had a history of working as an escort and she’s had a couple of abortions, that’s not disqualifying. The average escort has more dignity and respectability than the average politician, and there’s no shame in having an abortion.

But when a congresswoman runs on a platform of family values, and she’s vehemently anti-abortion, her blatant hypocrisy is a disqualifying factor.

Allegedly Boebert was a paid escort who met clients through SugarDaddyMeet.com. Imagine paying for a high-priced call girl, she knocks on your door, you excitedly swing the door open, and standing there is Boebert.

I won’t delve into the likelihood that Ted Cruz was a client of the evangelical escort, I don’t want to gross out my readers.

Let’s pray that Boebert will meet the same fate as Cawthorn.

Democrats Must Face Reality: Joe Biden is Too Old to Run for Reelection

The sky is blue, the grass is green, the ocean is wet and Joe Biden, 79, is too old to run for reelection. That’s not a remark born of ageism or anti-Democrat sentiments, it’s common sense.

After all I’m a progressive to the left of Biden, who appreciates how the septuagenarian president restored America’s faith in democracy, and the rule of law.

Biden has his defenders, notably House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, 82, and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, 71.

It’s time to turn the page, it’s time for a new generation to take over, it’s time to refresh and revigorated democracy by getting rid of this white gerontocracy.

The geriatric leadership of government is a disease that affects both parties, the Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell is 80, and the wretched dictator of the GOP, Donald Trump is 75.

These decrepit and doddering old politicians are the epitome of white privilege, and they should be holding court is a rest home community room and not the White House and Congress.

The average age of the Senate is 64.3 years — the oldest in history. Seven senators are in their 80s. This is an intolerable and untenable situation. By all accounts Dianne Feinstein, 88, can’t complete a coherent sentence because she has the attention span of a gnat.

Enough is enough. Joe Biden is too old. Donald Trump is too old. These old-timers think of Baby Boomers as youngsters, and they need to be put out to pasture.
