Trump Appointees Will Wreck the Government, and Evangelicals Are Down With That.

Evangelical Christians are just fine with Trump's "radical" appointees, and you should be, too.

Did you know that Robert F. Kennedy is a conspiracy theorist? Did you know Matt Gaetz sex-trafficked a 17 year-old girl? Did you know that Tulsi Gabbard is a Russian asset? Did you know that Pete Hegseth is a Christian Nationalist?

We are well aware of the hand-wringing by those self-identifying as evangelicals, over the nominations that President Trump has made for various cabinet positions this last week. Never mind that several of his appointees - like Pete Hegseth and Mike Huckabee - have very, very credible professions of faith and will replace those hostile to the Christian religion. And never mind that the only Biden appointee who identified as an evangelical was Francis Collins, a mass-murdering eugenicist who supports abortion, sodomy, trans-superstition, and sold his soul for 14 payments from vaccine manufacturers in a quid pro quo that resulted in hundreds of thousands of covid vaccine-related deaths and injuries.

For Evangelical Elitists crying the loudest, Trump’s nominees have been sub-par, or even “dangerous,” and certainly not conservative enough.

These soggy evangelicals seem to presume that we will forget their utter lack of protest regarding any of Biden’s nominees, which look like the roster of the Star Wars Cantina, a side show of transexuals and crossdressing luggage thieves, an accumulative result of what happens when go out of your way to factor in ‘freaks of nature’ into your DEI hiring quota.

However, we certainly have noticed that Russell Moore, David French, Dan Darling, Mike Cosper, Karen Swallow Prior et al reserve their criticism of “not Christian enough” only for Republicans.

I hope you enjoy my work, and pray you find it edifying. It would be very helpful it would be kind enough to support it with an $8 monthly or $80 yearly subscription (and you’ll get additional content). This is one of the ways I support my family. Thank you!

Democrats, it seems, receive a hell’s hall pass from any and all criticism by woke evangelicals. It’s similar to the way that Democrats excuse Bill Clinton’s sexual assault of Kathleen Willey or his “power differential” relationship with Monica Lewinski, or Hillary’s vicious attacks on the other 34 women who have accused him of sexual assault, or Clinton’s four additional accusations of sexual assault since he left the White House, but have declared Matt Gaetz, Brett Kavanaugh, and Donald Trump guilty of rape despite no criminal court indicting - let alone convicting - them.

Likewise, never once have any of the aforementioned “we’re conservatives, we promise” evangelicals spoke an ill word of Biden appointees.

It’s not all bad news, however. It’s actually nice, for once, to see the metrosexual wing of evangelicalism finally talk about the evils of abortion. Of course, that’s because the only time the Christianity Today staff cares about abortion is when they can use it to attack Republicans for not being anti-abortion enough.

And so, they are screaming at us - at the top of their lungs - that Robert F. Kennedy Jr - is rapidly pro-choice. Suddenly, the “nuance” of abortion fades away at times like this, and adjectives like “rabid” are suddenly thrown into their discourse, only to be removed again when a Democrat regime is installed into power.

There is also a surprising number of evangelicals who are suddenly very committed to putting chemicals into the water supply and making sure vaccines are promiscuously passed out like condoms at a Pride rally. Overlooking the millions around the globe injured or killed by Big Pharma’s non-vaccine, non-solution to Covid 19, these same evangelicals will speak of the “tens and tens” of deaths supposedly caused by RFK spreading vaccine hesitancy.

But all that aside, their accusation is true, that RFK is indeed pro-choice on abortion. And so, I think we owe them an answer for why that appears okay with us.

And for that matter, we owe them an explanation for why we’re okay with Tulsi Gabbard, a one-time committed Democrat not that long ago, serving as Director of the National Security Agency. Or, why we’re okay with “alleged sex trafficker,” Matt Gaetz, heading up the Department of Justice.

This is the anwer:

There is a time for everything, a season for everything under the sun; A time to tear down and a time to build up (Ecclesiastes (3:1-3).

We are convinced, as evangelicals, that our government has presented itself as an alternative god to Jehovah. It has elevated itself to the high places, demanded our unquestioning obedience, declared ownership of all that we have (including our children), and has erected itself as an idol made in a false image of God. The government seeks to be an all-knowing, all-powerful, ever-present alternative to the true omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent God of Heaven. The government has declared its power to declare (or undeclare) who is male or female. It has placed itself in a position of authority over the human conscience, and it calls good, evil and evil, good.

This same government has imprisoned people for taking unauthorized strolls in public buildings. It has imprisoned journalists for reporting on Planned Parenthood’s interstate trafficking of dead baby parts. It has imprisoned old women for praying outside of abortion clinics. It has identified conservative Christians (the only kind) as terrorists, and placed anti-abortion and pro-family organizations on terrorist watch lists. It arrested people enjoying the sun or taking walks on the beach during Covid. It arrested pastors for having church, and fined others. It fired military personnel for not submitting to unwanted experimental drugs.

This same government wire-tapped the incoming President of the United States in 2016. It colluded with foreign intelligence agencies, and his political opponents, to frame the President of the United States for impeachable crimes. Its intelligence apparatus conspired to steal an election by the suppression of truthful information. Its justice system did not provide due process to credible accusations of a stolen election. It impeached the President of the United States - twice - on the merits of bald-face lies. Its Justice Department colluded with rogue prosecutors to “find a crime” for which they could prosecute him. It changed state laws to extend the statute of limitations on charges never before prosecuted, and did so only for him. It convicted him in a show-trial on charges that no one can adequately explain. It imprisoned his supporters. It intentionally bankrupted his colleagues. It gave plea deals to false witnesses, who committed actual crimes, to impugn him for things that are no crimes at all. And then, it tried to kill him.

We are well aware that Trump’s nominees will wreck the Federal Government. We know. We approve. And we are down with that.

His nominations demonstrate that Trump is indeed coming for his enemies, and hell is coming with him.

To quote a song from my teenage years, “The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire. It don’t need no water, let the [sucker] burn.” What is coming is a wrecking ball, which will raise the valleys up, and bring the mountains low. And there’s a time for that.

Christians largely understand that we cannot continue to place band-aids on the government managing our Republic, no matter the cause, only to have them ripped off again in four or eight years. Our entire effort during the Trump Administration must be the deconstruction of the American bureaucratic column, and the rooting out of corruption.

It does no good passing this small pro-life measure or that one, only to have it resisted by Deep State bureaucrats or a corrupt Justice Department. And that doesn’t just go for pro-life issues, but all of the issues that conservative evangelicals hold dear.

Trump’s nominees have been chosen - line by line (with the exception of Marco Rubio, who makes no dang sense) - because they have been wronged by corruption in the department to which they’ve been appointed.

Tulsi Gabbard, for example, found herself on a terror watchlist (as reported by Air Marshal whistleblowers), merely because she was called a “Russian asset” by Hillary Clinton for legitimately no good reason at all. Tulsi literally dropped a single line critical of Hillary’s war-hawking, and Hillary made the passing accusation, putting the elected office holder and currently enlisted military member in the crosshairs of the Deep State. Now, she’ll run the NSA.

Pete Hegseth was removed from duty by the U.S. military because of alleged “Christian extremism.” Hegseth is an outspoken evangelical, homeschool advocate, and patriot whose views apparently didn’t align with those of his commanders. Now, he’ll run the DOD.

Matt Gaetz was investigated - on the flimsiest of charges - by the Biden Department of Justice for nearly two years, before they decided there was not enough evidence to indict. Their investigated was obviously pay-back for his bulldogging of Merick Garland over this lawfare against Donald Trump. Now, he’ll run the DOJ.

Robert F. Kennedy has been maligned and attacked by the Department of Health and Human Services for his science-based approach to health, and his rejection of Big Pharma’s control over healthcare in the United States. Now, he’ll run the DHHS.

Elon Musk, perhaps more than any other American, has faced the punitive punishment of big government’s bureaucratic powers over free enterprise (first by Gavin Newsom in California, and now by corruption within the federal government) and lost millions to governmental red tape. Now, he’ll co-chair the Department of Government Efficiency commission.

Are you starting to get it? It’s not about gaining temporary victories for the cause of conservatism. It’s about remaking American government to reflect the will of the people and to dismantle the idol of Federal Government overreach.

Evangelicals understand that we are well beyond fixing potholes with pro-life platitudes or engaging in the typical partisan struggles designed to help the team when in the next election cycle. This is about casting down idols and shattering strongholds. The road is beyond pothole repair; the asphalt needs torn up, and an entirely new surface needs to be laid.

We have finally wised up to realize that the Republican Party, like the pro-life movement, exists only to perpetuate its own existence. Pretending to fight, for them, is just as profitable as actually fighting. They are all too eager to lose, only because it will stir up their base and increase funding for the next kabuki theater fight in the next election cycle.

This country needs permanent solutions, but the government must first be brought low. Trump’s nominees - even and especially the ones mentioned in this post - will do that. It’s not a consequence of Trump’s presidency.

It’s the point of Trump’s presidency, as it should be.
