… “I’m really hoping that the right will stay united for as long as it takes because we’ve identified that enemy. That enemy is the left and the left wants to destroy everything that’s good, true and beautiful. It is a deranged movement. It’s, as people say, it’s filled with people who are disgusting freaks who through their resentment want to pretty much recreate their resentment and their own self-hatred in the world. They’d rather live in filth and see their enemies oppressed and suppressed; that is the right or anything that is true and beautiful.”
“This is a moment where you can communicate to your kind of normie evangelical friends that the left actually is an evil presence and that through the force of law and through the Constitution, these things can be suppressed. Public universities receive public funding and so it should be dictated what [benefits the] public. ... If it’s a public university, you ought to support the virtues that the nation recognizes; virtues and not evil. So, there’s things that by law you ought to suppress. The left dominates the universities. They not only do not educate—they do not teach people what’s good, true, and beautiful—they actually inculcate the sort of thinking that would lead to the sort of people who would support the murdering of Charlie Kirk.”
“God is a god of justice, and he’s ordained powers such that justice would be enacted in society. And, more than that, wickedness and unrighteousness would be suppressed, that the civil sword would be a terror to wickedness. That’s why God ordained civil power. And we have to kind of communicate that we can do that through our own heritage and traditions and constitutional order to suppress what is evil. That’s the whole purpose of government. That’s the purpose even of our government, even constitutionally; it is to suppress what is evil and to reward what is good. And so I think there’s a moment where we can communicate that.”
“This is not exploiting a moment. People are jarred and there’s a call to conscience where you’re taken out and sort of transcending from the moment, from your immediate concerns and you begin to reflect on what we’ve become, where we’re at and what we need to do. And this is where you can say, ‘Look, justice, righteousness. We need to be a nation under God. We need to return to what we were at the founding and really [for] a century and a half throughout this country, which was to be a Christian republic.’ We need to return to that and restore the Christian politics that is to suppress evil. So, it’s a moment that we have that we can really try to communicate that to people.” [First reported on Right Wing Watch.]
A real piece of work, this guy.
See my prior posts on "Christian Nationalism."
Let us also recall our pal Stephen Miller recently.
And, of course there's the theocratic-wannabee Project 2025.
UPDATE
Trump nominee to be assistant secretary of state for international organizations
President Donald Trump's nominee to be assistant secretary of state for international organizations reportedly deleted thousands of inflammatory posts that praised Jan. 6 rioters and called for the execution of American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten.
In a report on Thursday, CNN said that Jeremy Carl's posts were uncovered even though he deleted them from X and asked for them to be removed from the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine.
Carl wrote in 2023 that Jan. 6 defendants were more oppressed than Black Americans under Jim Crow. He later said that American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten should be "tried for crimes against America's children and would get the death penalty."
Only two days after the 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol, Carl accused then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of a "military coup" and said that she "must be prosecuted."
Carl repeatedly used heated rhetoric against Democrats, calling them "evil" and "the real fascists."
"There is no 'peaceful coexistence' we are going to have when our opposition is led by people like this. We either win or die," he wrote in 2021.
According to Carl, white people who celebrated Juneteenth had "already surrendered."
"Imagine thinking the Great replacement is a conspiracy theory," he wrote in 2021, referring to a racist theory that white people were being replaced in the U.S.
"I would rather be a Black man on trial for the assault of a white man in 1930s rural Mississippi than I would be a right-winger in DC today on trial for political crimes," one post said after members of the Proud Boys were found guilty of seditious conspiracy for the Jan. 6 attack.
The revelation about Carl's social media activity came as conservatives blamed Democrats for extremist rhetoric in the wake of the murder of MAGA influencer Charlie Kirk.
Okeee Dokeee, then...
And, then, there's this dude.
Ryan Walters recently forced on Oklahoma public schools a multimillion dollar sole-source no-bid purchase order contract for copies of the $60 Donald Trump / Lee Greenwood bible.
Now he's ordered every high school in the state to have an active Charlie Kirk TPUSA chapter or lose accreditation.
Is this a great country, or what?
