Vice President Mike Pence made a visit to one of the Trump administration's overcrowded detention centers last week.

Pence, who frequently refers to his devout Evangelical Christianity as the driving force behind his decisions in government, both as Governor of Indiana and as Vice President, appeared less than Christian to many people after photos and video of the VP's visit were released.

Shortly after, the hashtag #FakeChristian began to trend online.

Fox Host Slams Dem For Dropping An F-Bomb After Praising Trump For The Same Thing Just Minutes Earlier

Fox News host Emily Compagno was criticized after she praised Donald Trump's use of the "f-bomb" earlier this week before condemning Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett's use of the same word—on the same episode of her show, no less.

Trump made headlines this week after admonishing Israel and Iran for violating a ceasefire agreement he'd announced on Truth Social. Although he claimed the ceasefire had been "agreed upon," Iran fired at least six missile barrages at Israel after it was supposed to take effect.
