James Talarico, Anti-Christian Pseudo-Christian

Among the most conspicuous characteristics of today’s Democrats is their hostility toward Christianity. James Talarico, running for the US Senate from Texas, is a case in point.

Via Fox News, Talarico sneers:

“Instead of putting the 10 Commandments in every classroom, instead of forcing school children to read the Bible against their wills, why don’t we, all of us, look inward and figure out how we can be more Christ-like, even when it’s uncomfortable.”

You won’t hear Democrats complaining about children being forced to read sexually perverted LGBT indoctrination materials against their parents’ will.

What a moonbat means by “Christ-like” is anybody’s guess:

“I have met so many Hindus, Buddhists, Sikh Jews, Muslims, atheists, agnostics who are more Christ-like than some of the Christians I serve with in the Texas legislature.”

The most frenetically anti-Christian moonbats often have a pseudo-Christian background. Talarico was a Presbyterian seminarian. Read more on what Presbyterianism has been degenerating into here and here.

When attacking Christianity, liberals call it “Christian nationalism” — evidently in a lame attempt to link it like everything else they don’t like to fascism. Barks Talarico:

“These Christians in Congress, these Christian nationalists, they want a Christian nation unless it means providing health care to the sick, unless it means funding food assistance for the hungry or raising the minimum wage for the poor.”

I must have skipped the part in the Bible where Jesus called for infamously dysfunctional government-run healthcare, coercively funded EBT handouts, and the destruction of businesses and jobs by minimum wage.

Evidently Jesus also wants boys to play on girls’ sports teams:

Talarico has a long history of sparking controversy for his comments on God and Christianity, including claiming during a 2021 speech in the Texas legislature that “God is nonbinary” in a rebuke of Republican legislation focused on youth sports and transgender kids.

More blasphemy:

Talarico joined Joe Rogan’s podcast in September 2025, where he also claimed the Bible permits abortion, saying the angel Gabriel “asks Mary if this is something she wants to do, and she says, ‘If it is God’s will, let it be done.’”

Good thing Mary didn’t say, “Nah, a baby would be inconvenient right now. I think I’ll kill the little guy.”

Don Lemon Arrested for Terrorizing Church

Maybe the smug arrogance is unjustified. Maybe there can be legal consequences even for a rich and famous member of the liberal establishment who enjoys membership in multiple “marginalized” identity groups.

Via Fox News:

Former CNN host Don Lemon was taken into custody by federal authorities on Friday over his involvement in the viral protest by anti-ICE agitators at a Minnesota church.

The “protest” was actually a raid, during which a mob of left-wing thugs that included Lemon burst into Cities Church in Saint Paul during service and terrorized the congregation — particularly the children.

Some assumed they would get away with it, with ultraleftists like Keith Ellison running the legal system. However:

Ironically enough,

DOJ officials have previously suggested the former CNN star and the other anti-ICE agitators had violated the FACE Act and the Ku Klux Klan Act, among other crimes.

The purpose of the FACE act was to criminalize Christianity in the vicinity of abortion abattoirs. But to make it seem evenhanded, legislators had to include protection of churches.

Journalism long ago crossed over into activism. From there, Lemon took it the next inevitable step. But in his arrogance, he got over his skis.

On the bright side for Lemon, the adulation the arrest will earn him among liberals may revive his dwindling career — provided he doesn’t spend too long behind bars.

The unrepentant moonbat remains insolent:

“You’re not going to diminish my voice. Go ahead. Make me into the new Jimmy Kimmel if you want,” Lemon told the DOJ. “Just do it! Because I’m not going anywhere.”

Lemon has achieved a level of abasement so shameful that he views Jimmy Kimmel as a hero to be emulated.

Pope Leo Defends Free Speech From Thought Police

Pope Leo has raised red flags regarding Marxist moonbattery and LGBTism, but he shows encouraging support for free speech.

The Blaze reports:

“It is painful to see how, especially in the West, the space for genuine freedom of expression is rapidly shrinking,” the pope said. “At the same time, a new Orwellian-style language is developing which, in an attempt to be increasingly inclusive, ends up excluding those who do not conform to the ideologies that are fueling it.”

The Thought Police aren’t going to like his failure to embrace the Newspeak Dictionary.

The 70-year-old explained that the inclusivity paradox leads to other consequences, such as the restriction of human rights, including “freedom of conscience.”

Suppressing freedom of conscience via control of language is the point of postmodern moonbattery.

Bishop Robert Barron Sounds Off on Mamdani’s “Warmth of Collectivism”

Robert Barron, Bishop of the Diocese of Winona-Rochester in Minnesota, knows what Zohran Mamdani has in mind when he shouts that he wants to snuff out the rugged individualism that characterizes America in favor of the “warmth of collectivism.”

As Bishop Barron reminds us:

“Collectivism in its various forms is responsible for the deaths of at least one hundred million people in the last century.”

This figure refers to people killed by their own Marxist governments during the 20th century, as documented in the highly recommended Black Book of Communism.

“For God’s sake, spare me the ‘warmth of collectivism.’”

The commandments “Thou shalt not covet … anything that is thy neighbor’s” and “Thou shalt not steal” offer clues to the Christian perspective.

“Catholic social teaching has consistently condemned socialism and has embraced the market economy, which people like Mayor Mamdani caricature as “rugged individualism.” In fact, it is the economic system that is based upon the rights, freedom, and dignity of the human person.”

Freedom and dignity are anathema to leftists. They do like rights though, so long as by “rights” you mean special privileges for groups that help them secure power.

Originally Christian Amherst Pushes Blasphemy and Depravity

Originally Christian colleges indicate what is at stake when moonbattery is allowed to infiltrate and subvert institutions. Amherst College is a case in point.

Via Washington Free Beacon:

Amherst College was founded over two centuries ago to prepare young Christian men for the ministry. Today, however, the prestigious college has become a hotbed of administratively sanctioned sex performances and “sexual skills” programs, with a focus on “queer” and transgender students and on free-sex practices such as polyamory.

School-sanctioned sex events are graphic. They don’t have much to do with education, but plenty to do with Christianity when they are blasphemous.

Every year, first-year students are instructed, as a part of orientation, to attend an event—dubbed “Voices of the Class”—in which they are familiarized with Amherst’s “code of conduct” through a theatrical performance…

The event takes place in Johnson Chapel, which Amherst calls its “most important building,” and is used for worship services…

Here’s how the event unfolded last August 31:

On the chapel’s chancel, students performed mock sex acts including oral sex, masturbation, and group sex. A young woman bent over while another student pretended to penetrate her from behind.

Even if students prepare the script, the educrats running Amherst are responsible:

The school funds the performance, and Amherst administrators work closely with the student performers, offering feedback and approving the script.

Let’s see if we can get some feedback from this originally Christian school’s chaplain:

The Center for Religious and Spiritual life—which has a Buddhist, Hindu, Jewish, Muslim, and interfaith and humanist chaplain—declined to comment on the use of Johnson Chapel for the performance. Amherst does not have a Christian chaplain.

The desecration of Johnson Chapel is only the beginning of the perverted sexual indoctrination students are subjected to. Click through for more.

Blasphemy and depraved social engineering don’t come cheap at Amherst, where tuition plus room and board come to over $93,000.

Elsewhere in Massachusetts, Harvard was also founded for the purpose of educating clergy. All Ivy League schools were established by Christians.

What they have done to Christian schools, leftists are in the process of inflicting on churches. See the United Methodist, Presbyterian, Anglican, and even Catholic churches for alarming examples.

Abigail Spanberger Nominates Deep Stater Who Targeted Catholics

After Abigail “Let Your Rage Fuel You” Spanberger assumes power as Governor, Virginia will not be the best place to be Catholic:

Spanberger has nominated Stanley Meador — who led the FBI’s Richmond Field Office when it produced its controversial 2023 memo targeting traditional Catholics — to serve as the commonwealth’s next Secretary of Public Safety and Homeland Security.

The memo proposed infiltrating Catholic parishes for the sake of “threat mitigation.” Drawing on Southern Poverty Law Center propaganda, it equated traditional Catholics with the KKK, neo-Nazis, et cetera.

Meador represents the Deep State at its most ominous:

As special agent in charge of the Richmond office, Meador oversaw the division that drafted and circulated the internal memo linking “radical-traditionalist Catholics” with “racially or ethnically motivated violent extremism.”

Because we all know how much racist mayhem the example of Jesus inspires traditional Catholics to inflict.

The oxymoronic term “radical-traditionalist,” is telling. To leftists, anyone who wants to preserve traditions that have lasted for millennia is a radical who must be punished by the sane, normal people who are burning everything down in the name of moonbattery.

In June 2025, the FBI placed Meador on administrative leave, according to a New York Times report that noted his role leading the office where the memo originated.

Democrats did not waste time getting him back in action.

Kyle Seraphin, the former FBI agent who leaked the Richmond memo in 2023, posted on X that “the left always takes care of its own”…

Or as Solzhenitsyn put it, “Evil people always support each other; that is their chief strength.”

Those rounded up at Meador’s direction will be prosecuted by incoming Attorney General Jay Jones — the guy who fantasizes about shooting Republicans in the head and who wants them to watch their “little fascist” children die.

Buckle up, Virginians. You have voted yourself a rocky ride.
