Extremist Pastors Call For Trump’s Military To Seize Buildings Of Churches With Pride Flags, Women Clergy

Kyle Mantyla reports at Right Wing Watch:

On the most recent episode of the Right Response Ministries podcast, radical Christian nationalist pastor Joel Webbon and his co-hosts advocated for the government to literally seize control of churches that do not share their far-right theology.

“Hear me out,” co-host Wesley Todd said. “The president, the sovereign, the magistrate, Barron Trump, he comes out and he says, ‘I’ve taken a task force. We’ve gone through every website. We’ve driven by every building and we have logged thousands of churches with Pride flags out front, women on the clergy, and there are soldiers on the street now. We are taking their property and we are giving it to the faithful churches in town.'”

“Amen,” replied Webbon. “Love it.” “That is completely historically within the realm of the magistrate,” Todd continued. “He can do that. You are an apostate, wicked church and your building, your land, your heritage is taken from you and it is given to those that will bear the fruits of it.”

Read the full article. There’s much more, including a wish that Trump had shut down the service of an Episcopal priest who urged compassion for migrants and LGBTQ youth. Read it all. Watch the full video. These guys aren’t joking. Webbon appeared here last year when he called for the death penalty for homosexuality.
