Jerry Falwell Jr. strikes me as the antithesis of a "Christian". No wonder why he and Trump are allies.

The thousands of responses to Falwell's tweet are really something:

Jerry Falwell Jr. questions evangelical leader over criticism of facilities holding migrant children

Evangelical leader Jerry Falwell Jr. on Tuesday defended the Trump administration amid criticism over conditions migrant children have faced in U.S. detention facilities.

Falwell lashed out at Russell D. Moore, a theologian and president of the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission, for criticizing the administration following reports of detained migrant children held in unsanitary and inadequate conditions.

“The reports of the conditions for migrant children at the border should shock all of our consciences,” Moore said in a tweet Tuesday morning. “Those created in the image of God should be treated with dignity and compassion, especially those seeking refuge from violence back home. We can do better than this.”

Republicans/Trump has very little to offer average Americans, so they promote resentment, bigotry, and grievance:

Proud Boys Rally Rocked by Sex, Cocaine Allegations

Top speakers are fleeing and one-time allies are feuding as the gathering of MAGA faithful teeters.

A far-right rally scheduled for downtown Washington on Saturday has been thrown into disarray by dramatic allegations centering on cocaine, a love triangle, and the far-right Proud Boys men’s group...

The drama has torn apart one-time allies prominent on the pro-Trump internet and cost the so-called “Demand Free Speech” rally at least one speaker, after other prominent right-wing celebrities already cited other reasons for not appearing. While the rally was meant to protest the banning of conservative figures from social media, the surrounding drama has cast a shadow over the event.

...Proud Boys have been charged with violent attacks against their political opponents and must adhere to a series of rules, including restrictions on how much they can masturbate.

Founder of neo-Nazi site Daily Stormer should pay $14 million to victim of 'troll storm,' judge says

The founder and editor of the neo-Nazi website The Daily Stormer should be ordered to pay more than $14 million to a Montana real estate agent against whom he organized an anti-Semitic "troll storm," a federal magistrate judge found on Monday.

The judgment was filed Monday in U.S. District Court in Missoula, Montana, against Andrew Anglin, who encouraged the online intimidation campaign against Tanya Gersh, a Jewish real estate agent in the Montana resort town of Whitefish, her husband and their 12-year-old son.

...In a December 2016 article that published Gersh's phone number and home address, along with her 12-year-old son's Twitter handle, Anglin wrote of the Gershes: "Tell them you are sickened by their Jew agenda. ... This is very important. Calling these people up and/or sending them a quick message is very easy."

I tried to read that article but I couldn't finish it. Between all the notifications from my phone's pop-up blocker, the ad box constantly popping onto the bottom and the storyline that reads like a rejected MTV reality show script, I had to stop.

Any movement that has these dipshits as keynote speakers should reevaluate their movement.

This is what I think of pretty much anyone supporting Trump because he will install more God into our government.

If you want to live by the rules of your lord and accept the consequences on your Judgement Day then by all means, I fully respect that. But that's you. Your choice.

Don't put your God into my life. I do not feel the same as you. I do not live by any God. You can run a government devoid of religion. It is not needed. Your religion does not hold the patent on the basic concepts of right and wrong. I have never opened the pages of a Bible in my life and "thou shall not kill" is a part of my moral checklist.

You dont need to rule over the details of whom I marry or what my wife or daughters choose to do with their body.

Go clean up your own repulsive world. If the way of the Lord was so fucking amazing then the Catholic Church wouldn't be the largest organized pedophile ring in US history. You think we need MORE religion? Look at yourself. Fucking frauds.

"on a mission from Trump"..."secret pedophile rings"..."deep state"..."QAnon"

Lawyer says suspect in mob boss killing believed he was on mission from Trump

A New York man charged with murdering the alleged boss of the Gambino Mafia family believed he was carrying out a mission on behalf of President Trump, his lawyer said in court documents, according to the New York Times.

Anthony Comello of Staten Island allegedly shot and killed Francesco “Frankie Boy” Cali outside of Cali’s home in March, which law enforcement initially suspected was the opening salvo in a turf war after decades of relative piece between New York’s five major families.

However, according to a filing from his attorney, Robert C. Gottlieb, Comello had no affiliations with the Mafia and instead believed Cali was an agent of the “deep state” and believed he was authorized by Trump to arrest him. Gottlieb said that Comello had brought handcuffs with him and only shot Cali after he refused to submit to a citizen’s arrest and reached for his waistband.

Gottlieb, who sought to prove in the filing that Comello was not liable by reason of insanity, wrote that his client was a subscriber to the “QAnon” conspiracy theory, which claims that Trump is secretly working against a powerful network of pedophiles that control world institutions, according to the Times.

“Mr. Comello’s support for ‘QAnon’ went beyond mere participation in a radical political organization,” Gottlieb wrote. “It evolved into a delusional obsession.”

Comello reportedly had planned to conduct several citizen’s arrests of people he believed to be in on the conspiracy, including New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) on two separate occasions.

At Trump's last rally, he spent more time talking about The Squad than all of these issues combined:
-Health care
-Income inequality
-Opioids
-Cybersecurity
-Student loans
-North Korea

Why? Because he has no real solutions, so distracts his supporters with racism & nationalism.
