Bonus Tracks
Round-up

Kyle Mantyla
  • Michele Bachmann praises David Barton for having "gone through our founding documents and shown where the founder literally went line by line, precept by precept, through the Holy Bible and wrote the Declaration of Independence and the Mayflower Compact and the Constitution of the United States."
  • Edward Szall, a co-host and correspondent for the right-wing conspiracy theory outlet TruNews, was able to ask President Trump a question during a press conference.
  • Kenneth Copeland says that the recent "state dinner" that Trump held for evangelical leaders at the White House "was like being in a really anointed church service. Just the flow of the Spirit of God was just all over that."
  • James Robison fumes: "The media misrepresentation we’re witnessing is what the president refers to as “fake news.” But it is worse than fake — it is outright manipulation and deception that leads to the destruction of freedom."
  • Finally, Lance Wallnau says that the allegations against Brett Kavanaugh mean that now "any boys who are 17 [and] who have had more than two beers is a serial rapist."

David Barton

Despite having obtained only a Bachelor of Arts degree from Oral Roberts University in the 1970s, David Barton now routinely bills himself as “America’s premier historian” and has established a reputation as the Religious Right’s go-to “expert” for making the case that the Founding Fathers intended to establish America to be a Christian nation that operates according to the laws of God as set out in the Bible.

A former oil executive turned right-wing evangelist, Wallnau is a self-proclaimed Christian nationalist and a leading proponent of Seven Mountains Dominionism, which seeks to place right-wing Christians atop the seven primary “mountains” that shape society: government, education, media, arts and entertainment, family, religion, and business.
