Stupidocrisy: The Politics of Gaslighting About Christ :: By Bill Wilson

Jesus said in Matthew 10:33, “But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven.” 1 John 2:22 gives the reminder, “Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son.”

It’s one thing to say that Christ is the Son of God and through Him there is salvation, and yet another to believe it and live it. Over the years, politicians have claimed their faith and belief in Jesus the Messiah, but when it comes down to it, perhaps getting the Christian voting bloc on election day was more important than any real belief. We can see this play out in how recent presidents proclaimed the resurrection in their “Easter” proclamations.

On March 25, 2016, Barack Obama gave what could be considered one of the shortest Easter messages (65 words) by a president in modern times. He simply said, “Michelle and I join our fellow Christians in observing Good Friday and celebrating Easter this weekend. This is a time to remember the sacrifices made for us and hold all who suffer close to our hearts. Yet it is also a time to rejoice, give thanks for the Resurrection, and unite with Christians around the world in proclaiming, “Christ has risen; He has risen indeed.” We wish all who celebrate a blessed and joyful Easter.”

To Obama, the Resurrection was something we all were supposed to “unite” with Christians in proclaiming—almost as if Obama was an observer of a distant religion.

On March 31, 2024, Joe Biden’s 94-word Easter message said, “Jill and I send our warmest wishes to Christians around the world celebrating Easter Sunday. Easter reminds us of the power of hope and the promise of Christ’s Resurrection. As we gather with loved ones, we remember Jesus’ sacrifice. We pray for one another and cherish the blessing of the dawn of new possibilities. And with wars and conflict taking a toll on innocent lives around the world, we renew our commitment to work for peace, security, and dignity for all people. From our family to yours, happy Easter, and may God bless you.”

Let us compare these statements with the April 13 363-words on “Holy Week” by President Trump. Trump left no doubt about the work of Christ on the cross.

Trump proclaimed, “This Holy Week, Melania and I join in prayer with Christians celebrating the crucifixion and resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ—the living Son of God who conquered death, freed us from sin, and unlocked the gates of Heaven for all of humanity….Through His suffering, we have redemption. Through His death, we are forgiven of our sins. Through His Resurrection, we have hope of eternal life. On Easter morning, the stone is rolled away, the tomb is empty, and light prevails over darkness—signaling that death does not have the final word.”

Some men that claim they are followers of Christ won’t even proclaim Him in the most holy of days. It’s not about the number of words they use, it’s about politics over faith, and it shows in their deeds. Anything less than true faith is, say it with me, Stupidocrisy.

Professional Protesters :: By Bill Wilson

April 5th saw thousands of “demonstrators” across the country protesting President Trump’s policies, giving leftist news organizations a heyday of reporting and criticism of the president. What they didn’t report was that a large slate of socialist- and communist-inspired groups paid for the protests and hired people to actually do the “protesting.”

This type of gaslighting the American public has become commonplace in society, fueling the ignorant and apathetic masses’ perceptions against Trump and America. This is all part of a growing revolution in the name of “democracy” and resistance against anything that would strengthen America, provide jobs, and generate individual success.

Look no further than the so-called sponsors of the “Hands Off” demonstrations:

Democratic Socialists of America, Greenpeace, Human Rights Campaign, Indivisible, MoveOn.org, National Education Association, Our Revolution, Planned Parenthood, Pride at Work, Progressive Change Campaign Committee, Progressive Democrats of America, Rainbow Push Coalition, Reproductive Freedom for All, Rise and Resist, Stand Up America, Volunteer Blue, a host of labor unions, homosexual activist groups, climate change and global warming groups, social justice groups, environmental activists, teachers unions, including the National Education Association, and Catholics Vote Common Good. Just to name a few.

MoveOn Executive Director Rahna Epting is quoted on the Hands Off 2025 website:

“What we witnessed today was nothing short of extraordinary. Across the country and around the world, people came together to say: we will not be silent while our rights, our futures, and our democracy are under attack. This peaceful movement is powered by everyday people—nurses, teachers, students, parents—who are rising up to protest what matters most. We are united, we are relentless, and we are just getting started.”

The website uses lies, fearmongering, and class warfare—a tried and true communist strategy. They say Trump is dismantling Social Security and Medicare, handing trillions to billionaires, allowing money sources to scam Americans, and assaulting communities and rights by targeting political opponents, kids, transgenders, farmers, and others.

Who robbed Social Security and Medicare and diverted funds to cronies and politicians? Who handed trillions to billionaires? Who assaults communities with violence, enablement, and lawfare? Trump has exposed exactly what the Democrats have been doing, and now MoveOn and others want to blame Trump for their own actions.

They hire people who don’t even care about these issues to hold signs and shout slogans. They abuse their right to free speech by promoting the very type of revolution that will end free speech, end economic freedom, and enslave everyone to an all-powerful regime.

Proverbs 17:11 says, “An evil man seeks only rebellion; a cruel messenger will be sent against him.”

They rebel against country, but even worse, they rebel against God.
