Rightwing Author Ripped For Saying Only Jesus Has Been 'Unfairly Persecuted' More Than Trump

Conservative political commentator Nick Adams was mocked after he claimed only Jesus Christ has been "unfairly persecuted" more than former Republican President Donald Trump.

Writing on Twitter, Adams called Jesus—whose flagellation and subsequent crucifixion are recounted in both the canonical and synoptic gospels—the "sole exception" in the persecution Olympics, with Trump close behind.


You can see his tweet below.

Adams' comment came shortly after New York Attorney General Letitia James filed a lawsuit accusing Trump, his family business and three of his children of lying to lenders and insurers as well as inflating his assets by billions of dollars. James concluded the Trumps broke state laws and very likely federal ones and seeks to bar them from ever running a business in New York again.

James had earlier accused the Trump family business of engaging in “fraudulent or misleading” practices by misrepresenting the value of its assets. Trump later sued James in December 2021, arguing her investigation violates his constitutional rights.

The development in New York comes as Trump continues to face heavy scrutiny for absconding from the White House with classified and top secret documents the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) later recovered after securing a search warrant for his Mar-a-Lago estate.

Trump was criticized earlier this week after Raymond Dearie, the special master appointed per his request to review the thousands of documents the FBI seized last month, took Trump's legal team to task for failing to back up Trump's claim classified documents were rightfully in his possession.

As far as social media users were concerned, nothing about these latest developments indicates Trump is being "unfairly persecuted" at all.

Many mocked Adams as a result, pointing to examples of people who were actually persecuted.




Adams, who hails from Australia, rose to promience in 2017 after then-President Trump made favorable comments and tweets about his work, notably Adams' book Green Card Warrior which has been largely scorned for being little more than an anti-immigration screed.

Adams is White, but sees no irony in being Australian and opposing immigration. White people are not indigenous to Australia or the Americas.

Adams openly denounced multiculturalism, saying:

"It creates groups and pockets of people that of course, then feel that there are certain elements of superiority and inferiority and I think that we need to be united."

HGTV Stars Respond To Backlash From Christian Fans For Casting Same-Sex Couple In Their New Series

Back in 2016, home renovation and lifestyle power couple Joanna and Chip Gaines faced accusations of anti-LGBTQ+ bigotry. The criticism stemmed from their attendance at a Waco, Texas church that preached against LGBTQ+ equality and basic human rights.

At the time, the couple owned and operated Magnolia Homes, a remodeling and design business in Waco, Texas, and their HGTV program Fixer Upper was a hit. After the show ended in 2018, the couple created their own Magnolia Network in partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery in 2020 to create original content and air other home and lifestyle programs.

JD Vance Called Out For Hypocrisy As He Visits Disneyland With His Family Amid Boos

On Saturday, one-time vehement Trump critic turned MAGA Republican convert Vice President JD Vance went on vacation to Disneyland in blue state California, despite Disney World in red state Florida being closer to Washington D.C. and in the middle of MAGA territory.

The administration of MAGA Republican President Donald Trump is currently engaged in a face-off with California over occupying forces sent by Trump to Los Angeles, which is about 50 miles from Anaheim where Disneyland is located, making Vance's choice even more questionable.

Joe Biden Calls Out 'Liar' Trump Over His Claims About Biden's Use Of Autopen For Pardons

Speaking to The New York Times, former President Joe Biden called President Donald Trump a "liar" over claims that Biden's pardons are "void" because they were done by autopen, a conspiracy theory heavily promoted by Republicans who've already suggested many times that Biden was not mentally fit while in office.

In the final hours of his presidency, Biden issued a series of preemptive pardons, including ones for his relatives, all members of the House committee that investigated the January 6 attack—such as former Congresswoman Liz Cheney—and several of Trump’s most prominent adversaries, including General Mark Milley and Dr. Anthony Fauci.

South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace was fact-checked by an X Community Note after she tried to praise President Donald Trump for "rebuilding" the country, when she herself voted against President Biden's 2021 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA).
