Meanwhile, Trump has appointed a far right televangelist who speaks in tongue, Paula White, to head a newly established White House Faith Office
I sense a mafia war coming.A MAGA fan called TexasClare on X wrote: 'True evangelicals who have Trump's ear (like @Franklin_Graham ) need to get him off the "Pastor" Paula White train.'
This sounds like it’s right up Trump’s alley. The evangelical “Christians” who are outraged by this are showing their ignorance of who Donald Trump has always been. Game recognize game....But the move sparked fury from Christian leaders who believe that White, a megachurch pastor from Florida, preaches an interpretation of the gospel that critics argue exploits the most vulnerable.
White teaches followers that God will reward them if they donate to her church, going as far as to suggest precise sums over a thousand dollars to ensure their 'salvation'.
Yea, but it was 2 years later, and he was 91 years old.Well, he did die.
He got the money before the end of March when a donor gave $1.3m out of concern that Roberts was going to harm himself.Yea, but it was 2 years later, and he was 91 years old.
He should have died in March when he didn't get the money, then I would have been impressed.
91 years, that's a long grift.
Yea, the original deadline wasn't met. Still sucks that someone gave him the money.He got the money before the end of March when a donor gave $1.3m out of concern that Roberts was going to harm himself.
But he'd previously said the deadline was the end of the previous year, which didn't get met.

Trump won't block immigration arrests in houses of worship. Now these 27 religious groups are suing
More than two-dozen Christian and Jewish groups representing millions of Americans have filed a federal court lawsuit challenging a Trump administration move giving immigration agents more leeway to make arrests at houses of worship.apnews.com
“… The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Washington, contends that the new policy is spreading fear of raids, thus lowering attendance at worship services and other valuable church programs. The result, says the suit, infringes on the groups’ religious freedom — namely their ability to minister to migrants, including those in the United States illegally.
“We have immigrants, refugees, people who are documented and undocumented,” said the Most Rev. Sean Rowe, the presiding bishop of the Episcopal Church.
“We cannot worship freely if some of us are living in fear,” he told The Associated Press. “By joining this lawsuit, we’re seeking the ability to gather and fully practice our faith, to follow Jesus’ command to love our neighbors as ourselves.”
… There was no immediate Trump administration response to the new lawsuit, which names the Department of Homeland Security and its immigration enforcement agencies as defendants. However, a memorandum filed Friday by the Department of Justice, opposing the thrust of the Quaker lawsuit, outlined arguments that may also apply to the new lawsuit.
In essence, the memo contended that the plaintiffs’ request to block the new enforcement policy is based on speculation of hypothetical future harm — and thus is insufficient grounds for issuing an injunction.
… The memo said that immigration enforcement affecting houses of worship had been permitted for decades, and the new policy announced in January simply said that field agents — using “common sense” and “discretion” — could now conduct such operations without pre-approval from a supervisor. …”
