Christian Leader Urges Prayers for 'Chaos and Conflict' in the Capitol So God Takes Dem Majority Away

Christian Leader Urges Prayers for 'Chaos and Conflict' in the Capitol So God Takes Dem Majority Away

Even before his inauguration, President Joe Biden promised to make unity a key component of his administration after his predecessor deepened divides between Republican and Democratic lawmakers even further.

But Republicans have since chastised Biden for issuing executive orders and for passing the wildly popular American Rescue Plan with no support from Republicans in Congress. They've painted this as a breach of his unity promise, despite presenting a near-absolute unwillingness to work with the Democratic side of the aisle.


Tony Perkins, President of the wildly homophobic Family Research Council, gave some insight into the sentiments behind this gridlock during a diatribe in which he hoped for complete "gridlock" in the Capitol.

Watch below.

Perkins said:

"We just need to pray that God will take the majority away from [Democrats]. What we can't do in the next two years, he can. And if they're gonna ram all these things through, we just need to pray God brings chaos, conflict and gridlock on our nation's capitol so this cannot advance."

The radical Perkins' comments come just weeks after he said Biden's policies were "literally from the pit of hell" and that they'd provoke God's wrath upon the nation.

His latest prayer for gridlock in the Capitol, amid a pandemic that's killed over 500 thousand Americans, said a lot about the state of the right wing.






Meanwhile, the Republican criticisms of Biden's so-called unwillingness to unify grow even more hollow.



Republican attitudes have yet to change.

We already knew that ChatGPT could be a problem regarding critical thinking and creativity, so maybe we should have anticipated the mindsets that would develop, snubbing independent thinking when tools like ChatGPT are available.

Disney princesses are usually known for their whimsical singing and befriending creatures from all across the animal kingdom, but Princess Rapunzel at Tokyo DisneySea may have misunderstood the assignment.

Earlier this week, Rapunzel was caught on video at DisneySea in Tokyo, but she didn't go viral for her cheery demeanor or her singing voice, which passers-by can hear from the base of her elegant tower. Rather, it was a pair of intruders who put her in the spotlight.

Bald Men Are Up In Arms Over Viral Chart That Predicts Political Affiliation Based On A Man's Haircut

And a TikToker has followed that lead by developing a chart that predicts a man's political persuasion based on his hair alone—and bald men are NOT happy about it.

Republicans Slammed For Soulless One-Word Response To Democrats' Trans Day Of Visibility Tweet

According to research by the Williams Institute at UCLA School of Law, transgender people in the United States were over four times more likely than cisgender people to be victims of violent crime based on statistics from 2017-2018. A study by the non-profit Everytown for Gun Safety found the number of trans people murdered in the U.S. nearly doubled between 2017and 2021.

In the last 5–9 years, those figures have only increased as the Republican Party has made trans people the target of many of their political campaigns and legislative actions.

Pete Hegseth Slammed After Calling Off Investigation Into Army Helicopter Fly-By At Kid Rock's House

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was criticized for calling off the U.S. Army's investigation after MAGA musician Kid Rock posted a video of an Army Apache helicopter doing a fly-by at his Nashville home.

In the brief clip, a helicopter that appears to be an AH-64 Apache—an attack helicopter used by the U.S. Army and National Guard—flies at low altitude near his estate in Whites Creek.
