The Army of God Comes Out of the Shadows
Politics Tens of millions of American Christians are embracing a charismatic movement known as the New Apostolic Reformation, which seeks to destroy the secular state. January 09, 2025 On the Thursday night after Donald Trump won the presidential election, an obscure but telling celebration unfolded inside a converted barn off a highway stretching through the cornfields of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. The place was called Gateway House of Prayer, and it was not exactly a church, and did not

The picture is worth looking at

This kind of thing - the coming takeover of the American government by crazy evangelicals - is discussed heavily in the limited-series documentaries "The Family" (2019, Netflix) and "Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets" (2023, Prime). Yes indeed, it is possibly way too late for people to stop now, and it blows my mind that it continues to get ignored the way it is. They have made a TON of headway since either of those documentaries were released.

Got both (Netflix, Prime) so thanks for the recommendations! Hope I can still get them.

What does “toned down versions, perhaps by 10%” mean? Is that like making an F16 or F22 fly at Mach 2.9 rather than Mach 3? 10% less fuel capacity or range? A 10% failure rate for its radar or missile avoidance systems? Fucking idiot. Hey COOTWH, nobody but your cult thinks you’re smart. Fucking guy.

A lot of people feel the same way!

Something special is happening.

Over *34,000* people joined our Fight the Oligarchy rally tonight with Bernie Sanders and I.

Biggest political event in Denver since Obama 2008.

Working people are ready to stand together and fight for our democracy.

Thank you Colorado!

currently relistening to "the glorious cause : the american revolution : 1763-1789".

definite parallels between the lead up to the war and whats happening now.

interesting how things repeat themselves to a degree.

I think we are seeing it happen from the bottom up. just as before......

Sorry, I'm just too cynical about the states to believe any change will happen at a significant level anymore.

I don’t think it’s cynical to ask how in the causal chain this will manifest change. Protesters on the street leads to _________ leads to government reform. For the life of me, I can’t figure out what goes in that blank space.

So, we’re seeing “cracks.” At some point it’s going to split wide open in either an eruption or giant ooze.

Questions are, what are going to be the catalysts? How big will they be? Will it be one major event or will it be a series of smaller events? If so, what types?

I’m thinking it’s either one of two things, a pandemic or natural disaster type event that illustrates the total incompetence of the current administration or, more likely, continued public demonstrations of larger and larger crowds that lead to clashes with law enforcement. Violence and mayhem ensues. It’s part of their plan to declare martial law and deploy US troops domestically. The shock troops have been pardoned, their ranks have grown and COOTWH and others are itching for it.

I used to think that the strategy was to have this occur late summer into fall right around the mid-terms so they could cancel, delay elections or fuck with turnout.The way things are going, it may happen sooner. Much sooner. Regardless, something is going to break and it’s going to be worse before it gets better. Much worse. It’ll make the George Floyd and Rodney King protests look like child’s play.

It has to be a massive group effort. Here are my thoughts:

Start by putting pressure on congress people. Make calls, write letters can cards. More of us need to do that. Of the people I know who are unhappy with what is going on in this country, one of them is a guy I know who is the most upset about it. I told him we need to keep making calls to our representatives, and mentioned that I have done so a number of times. Sounding a bit surprised, he said, "You did?" I said, "Oh yeah, you bet! Have you?" He sheepishly answered, "Um, no." That's not going to move the needle.

But look at that crowd. There are a LOT of people speaking out. Now what if everyone who is unhappy with oligarchy made those calls and showed up to rallies, more pressure would be put on lawmakers to act. We have to make our voices heard. How many here have done that? I really wonder how many here who have complained have made their voices heard.

And there are other things people can do like stop supporting billionaires. Stop making purchases on Amazon, stop supporting X, as much as possible, buy from independent stores and companies and stop buying products made by major corporations.

Someone suggested a national strike. Sounds like a good idea.

Support VoteVets. https://votevets.org/ this is an excellent group that is putting on the pressure.

Make donations to representatives at all levels who support Democracy. We live on a relatively low fixed income, the majority of which we may lose very soon if Social Security is shut down, and yet we still make donations to people and organizations fighting for Democracy.

Bottom line is, the last thing we need are people complaining who are not willing to do their part. Democracy is about people holding the power. It works, but only as long as enough people are willing to be involved.

Maybe Americans (as in, U.S. citizens) want freedom and Democracy. Or maybe Americans don't want Democracy. Maybe America is stupid and lazy and will be OK with struggling and becoming poor and subservient. We will know which it is very soon. People need to decide what kind of world they want to live in.

“I don’t know when it was signed, because I didn’t sign it,” Trump told reporters Friday evening.

So…

(1) Trump is lying & he signed it?
(2) Trump is senile & doesn’t remember signing it?
(3) Trump had Marco Rubio use the autopen to sign it?

This flew under the radar, but Trump revoked a minimum wage hike for companies that contract with the government.

An estimated 390,000 workers will now see significant pay cuts.

It's not surprising that Trump's populism is fake, but it's hardly ever been more clear.

Congratulations. You’re in a cult.

MAGA is a cult. I should know. I was raised in one

In Trump’s world, you follow him at his word or you’re an enemy — a fact Canadians are quickly learning.

I know a cult when I see one. Not because I’ve studied them through flashy documentaries or deep-diving podcasts. I was born into one. Cults are my family history, imprinted on my DNA, living in the very marrow of my bones.

When I see the fervent devotion around Donald Trump and his MAGA crowd, I know exactly what I am looking at. The controlled values and beliefs, the unwavering devotion to a powerful leader, the deep suspicion of outsiders — I see the writing on the wall and it says “cult.”

In Trump’s world, you follow him at his word or you’re an enemy — a fact Canadians are quickly learning. Not only is the President quick to make an enemy of his allies, but he’s also eager to sow division within his own country. Trump himself has famously said: “We have the outside enemy, and then we have the enemy from within.”

Who, exactly, is the enemy from within? The leftist pussy-hat wearing feminists? Black Lives Matter protesters? Parents of children with autism? The media, who are simply attempting to report on facts and are being barred from attending critical press events?

I know what it’s like to be the enemy from within. In my family, I was born the enemy, disregarded because of my status as the daughter of a second wife. In a Christian sect that doesn’t believe in divorce, the daughter of a second wife is sure to be tarnished the moment her lungs breathe air.

This made me deeply suspicious, leading to years of research into my father’s religion. Eventually, I became an investigative journalist and was the first to expose the rampant sexual abuse and exploitation within the secretive sect. Now, the FBI is investigating the group.

Trump’s political cult isn’t that different from a religious cult. He demands blind devotion, and when you question him, you’re cast off. Anyone who criticizes Trump is labelled as having “Trump Derangement Syndrome,” a real term that he used in a January 2025 Truth Social post.

In Trump’s world, if your values and ideology do not align with his, then you need not apply for MAGA membership. Are you an immigrant, a member of the LGBTQ2S+ community, proudly Black or Indigenous, or a woman in need of an abortion? Well, there is no space for you on the Trump bandwagon.

However, if you’re a serial cheater, a billionaire, “an abuser of women,” or plagued by countless ethical and legal controversies — there’s nothing to see here.

In a cult, everything is black and white, and the leader sets the standard for what is true. Question the leader and you’ll find yourself outside of the group faster than you can say Mike Pence. In what world is Trump’s obsession with groupthink, his way or the highway, not a high-control movement?

MAGA is not just a political base, it’s an overzealous group, who are bound by loyalty tests, rigid conformity and a refusal to think critically. The MAGA cult does not examine within themselves what is right or wrong, they outsource that job to their Savior.

There’s no weighing his words against fact, science, or even human decency — because to do that would be to risk exile, excommunication, the loss of a community, and the identity that defines them. This isn’t just a political movement, it’s a dangerously indoctrinated collective.

Donald Trump has made an enemy of millions — he’s said so himself. How many of Trump’s enemies will rise up and demand to be seen and heard? The thing with high-control groups: They underestimate the strength of those they call worthless.

Plagiarism is the act of presenting someone else's work or ideas as your own, a form of academic dishonesty that can lead to serious consequences. It can involve copying text, ideas, or structures without proper attribution, or even failing to cite sources correctly

..

Nice try, but I included the source. Obviously attributing the source .

i guess you’re suing the onion now as satire = plagiarism; oh wait, if it’s part of the cult it’s ok.

I do not think Dems are terrible at messaging. Clinton and Obama campaigns delivered powerful messaging. Kamala's campaign was awful. They blew it. I do not think it helped the Dems that Biden presented as a senile old man protecting a scandalous son.
