Speaker 1: It is day two of the Trump regime, and we're
Speaker 1: going to the chapel. We're really the National Cathedral, because frankly,
Speaker 1: there hasn't been a reaction like we've seen on television
Speaker 1: to people going to church since Ambassador Thorne took his
Speaker 1: Sun damion. This is the warning. There is great offense,
Speaker 1: tremendous grievance playing out across the conservative media. Within just
Speaker 1: forty eight hours of Donald Trump's ascension. You see, our
Speaker 1: unity has been spoiled by words of division, words about
Speaker 1: mercy that somehow affronted the President of the United States
Speaker 1: in all of his many appendages in the National Cathedral.
Speaker 2: In the name of our God, I ask you to
Speaker 2: have mercy upon the people in our country who we're
Speaker 2: scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender children in Democratic,
Speaker 2: Republican and independent families, some who fear for their lives.
Speaker 2: I ask you to have mercy, mister President, on those
Speaker 2: in our communities whose children fear that their parents will
Speaker 2: be taken away, and that you help those who are
Speaker 2: fleeing war zones and persecution in their own lands to
Speaker 2: find compassion and welcome here.
Speaker 1: He was upset, you can see it on his face
Speaker 1: the sneering the antagonism, His defenders on television and in
Speaker 1: the news media have lashed out in his defense, declaring
Speaker 1: that the words of Jesus Christ expressed by a bishop
Speaker 1: and an inaugural prayer service are an affront to Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: Scott Jennings laid it out on CNN.
Speaker 3: These woke Scapalians or Episcowochians or whatever they're calling themselves today,
Speaker 3: this is ridiculous.
Speaker 4: This was terrible.
Speaker 3: Donald Trump, I'm sure regrets participating in this event today,
Speaker 3: to be lectured to and politicized in a church this way,
Speaker 3: and I thought it was frankly a disgrace to what
Speaker 3: they did at this event. I don't know if this
Speaker 3: event will happened ever again. Because of this, this particular
Speaker 3: bishop took it upon herself to turn this into a
Speaker 3: complete and total circus and spectacle and laura ingram. Rather
Speaker 3: than a Christian service about God and country, they were
Speaker 3: forced to listen to the rantings of a lunatic.
Speaker 1: And of course, Sean Hannity employing a tactic where her
Speaker 1: Excellency's words are defined as deranged.
Speaker 5: She goes on a far left woke tirade in front
Speaker 5: of Donald Trump and jd Vance, their families, their young children.
Speaker 5: She made the service about her very own deranged political
Speaker 5: blos leafs with that with a disgraceful prayer ful of
Speaker 5: fear mongering and division.
Speaker 1: Poor Donald, he's confused because he has been surrounded for
Speaker 1: so long now by so many religious hosters who've told
Speaker 1: him he's Jesus Christ. He's lost his bearings. When he
Speaker 1: went to church, he thought the sermon would be about him,
Speaker 1: praising him, the man who just declared, with the sickest
Speaker 1: and most chilling words ever spoken at a presidential inaugural,
Speaker 1: that he was saved by God to make us great.
Speaker 6: Just a few months ago in a beautiful Pennsylvania field
Speaker 6: and assassin's bullet ripped through my ear. But I felt then,
Speaker 6: and believe even more so now that my life was
Speaker 6: saved for a reason. I was saved by God to
Speaker 6: make America great again.
Speaker 1: Golden era is upon us. We have the bigcoin preacher
Speaker 1: from Detroit who introduced his big cooin with this, desecrated
Speaker 1: the words of doctor King with his over to top performance.
Speaker 7: And when we let freedom ring, we will be able
Speaker 7: to speed up that day.
Speaker 4: All of your.
Speaker 7: Children, black men and white men Protestant and Catholic jew
Speaker 7: in Gentile will be able to sing in the meaning
Speaker 7: of that old Negro spiritual free a last, free a last.
Speaker 7: Thank you God Almighty, we are free a last.
Speaker 1: And of course there is Franklin Graham, a whack job
Speaker 1: par excellence really without Pierre, a sinister man, a bigot
Speaker 1: of the highest order.
Speaker 4: Father. When Donald Trump's enemies thought he was down and out,
Speaker 4: you and you alone saved his life and raised him
Speaker 4: up with string and power by your mighty hand. We
Speaker 4: pray for President Trump that you'll watch over, protect guy,
Speaker 4: direct him, give him your wisdom from your throne on high.
Speaker 4: We asked that you would bless him and that our
Speaker 4: nation would be blessed through him. We also asked that
Speaker 4: you would bless to protect Millennia as first lady.
Speaker 1: All of them, flatterers of power, kneelers in front of it,
Speaker 1: all of them, the people who sat behind the tables
Speaker 1: that Christ himself overturned in the Temple. They are the
Speaker 1: modern Pharisees, each and every one of them. So it
Speaker 1: was shocking when Donald Trump and his family in the
Speaker 1: National Cathedral were exposed to a plea from mercy to power.
Speaker 1: They felt affronted by it and attacked by it. But
Speaker 1: no one attacked them. They were asked to do something,
Speaker 1: and they recoiled from it, as if they had been scolded.
Speaker 1: It is as if the bishop threw out some holy
Speaker 1: water and it boiled when it touched them. What is
Speaker 1: the offense to plead for mercy? There are people who
Speaker 1: are scared right now? Are we not to acknowledge them?
Speaker 1: Perhaps acknowledging them means that we must acknowledge what scares them,
Speaker 1: which is the constancy of the threats now mixed with
Speaker 1: power and a capitulant media that will not tell the
Speaker 1: truth about the obvious. This is the headline for how
Speaker 1: the world's largest puzzle company covered this. A Nazi salute,
Speaker 1: a Roman salute. There is no ambiguity about this. This
Speaker 1: is Elon Musk's Italian advisor tweeting out his joy at
Speaker 1: the spectacle of the return of the Empire, the Roman,
Speaker 1: an empire in the form of the United States, which
Speaker 1: is to rule the earth and set into the heavens
Speaker 1: under the direction of the man who will be what.
Speaker 1: Watch this again, this manifestation of evil.
Speaker 6: And I just want to say thank you for making
Speaker 6: it happen.
Speaker 4: Thank you.
Speaker 1: This is what the bishop is addressing. What is it
Speaker 1: that's to be done with this sick woman who would
Speaker 1: dare to preach the Gospel of Christ to the President
Speaker 1: and Vice President of the United States and their family.
Speaker 1: They are so angry at her. See the contempt, see
Speaker 1: the entitlement, the smirks, and the arrogancies. With each plea
Speaker 1: for mercy and tolerance and understanding, there is revulsion, is physical,
Speaker 1: and it is despicable, and it is frightening. But it
Speaker 1: is a call to arms to make good trouble. The
Speaker 1: great testing crisis is coming in America. Be grateful for it.
Speaker 1: It's an our time and not in our children's. We
Speaker 1: are called, as people who believe in freedom and liberty
Speaker 1: to stand for the proposition of one man, one vote,
Speaker 1: and for the least amongst us. This is the warning.
