Faithful Word Baptist Church
http://www.faithfulwordbaptist.org/
Our Pastor
Pastor Steven Anderson was born and raised in Sacramento, CA. At age 18, he travelled throughout Germany and Eastern Europe for 3 months serving in local independent Baptist churches, studying foreign languages, and getting experience in the ministry. It was on this trip that he met his future wife, Zsuzsanna, while out soul-winning in the streets of Munich, Bavaria. He eventually led her to the Lord, and they were married shortly thereafter. They have been married for over 15 years, and God has blessed them with 9 beautiful children.
Pastor Anderson started Faithful Word Baptist Church on December 25, 2005. He holds no college degree but has well over 140 chapters of the Bible memorized word-for-word, including approximately half of the New Testament. Today, most Baptist churches are started by Bible colleges. However, the Bible makes it clear that the church is the pillar and ground of the truth, not a school. Faithful Word Baptist Church is a totally independent Baptist church, and Pastor Anderson was sent out by an independent Baptist church in Northern California to start it the old-fashioned way by knocking doors and winning souls to Christ.

06/09/2016
An Arizona jury on Wednesday convicted the co-founder of a border militia group of molesting a 5-year-old girl but acquitted him of more serious sex charges, court officials said.
Christopher Allen Simcox, who co-founded the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps in 2005, was found guilty of two felony counts of child molestation and one felony count of providing obscene material to a minor by the Maricopa County Superior Court jury.
Simcox, 55, was cleared of three felony counts of sexual conduct with a 6-year-old girl, charges that carried mandatory sentences of life in prison.
He faces up to 24 years in prison on each molestation charge at his scheduled July 5 sentencing, prosecutors said.

Theodore Shoebat On Orlando Massacre: It's 'The State's Job To Kill The Sodomites,' Not Vigilantes
Submitted by Kyle Mantyla on Tuesday, 6/14/2016 10:26 am
Last night, extremist anti-gay activist Theodore Shoebat [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/theodore-shoebat ] posted an hour-long video [ http://shoebat.com/2016/06/13/what-the-media-is-not-telling-you-about-the-islamic-massacre-in-orlando/ ] in response to the massacre at a gay nightclub in Orlando over the weekend in which he, like his father, expressed no sympathy for those "sodomites" who died because the entire tragedy was nothing more than "scum killing scum."
Both Islam and homosexuality are aberrations, he declared, and "Muslims kill each other all the time [and] sodomites kill each other all the time," so this case of a Muslim killing dozens of gay people was nothing more than "mutant killing mutant, devil killing devil."
"Sodomites are criminals" and do not deserve the prayers of Christians, Shoebat stated. "The sodomites who were killed in this club were not innocent people. They were not good people. They were not people who were just victims who we should just feel sorry for. It was scum killing scum."
The real victims of this attack, Shoebat said, are people like him who are being unfairly painted as radicals and likened to ISIS simply because they openly [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/theodore-shoebat-praises-russia-again-calls-gays-be-executed ] advocate [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/theodore-shoebat-homosexuality-leads-cannibalism-kill-those-who-won-t-submit-christianity ] putting gay people to death [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/theodore-shoebat-calls-global-inquisition-put-gays-death ].
Shoebat, who last year was featured alongside several congressmen and GOP presidential candidates in an anti-gay "documentary [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/light-wins ]," stated that he does not support the actions of the man who opened fired on the nightclub — not because he doesn't think that gay people should be killed, but simply because executing gay people is the job of the government, not vigilantes.
"I don't believe in vigilantism, but I do believe in the government killing the sodomites," he explained. "I do believe in the government arresting the sodomites and executing them for homosexuality. Under my rule, that sodomite club in Orlando, it would have been destroyed, it would have been demolished, bulldozed and all the bastards in there would have been arrested, tried, found guilty for homosexuality and executed."
"What this guy did was vigilantism," Shoebat stated, which he doesn't support because it's "the state's job to kill the sodomites."

Dave Daubenmire: Gays Murdered In Orlando Were On The Devil's Team
Submitted by Nabi Dressler on Tuesday, 6/14/2016 11:48 am
On his “Pass the Salt [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/organizations/pass-salt ]” show [ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfBE1RoYYoI (next below; with comments)]
“This shooting down in Orlando, Florida? It will soon be my fault,” Daubenmire said. “It will soon be the fault of radical, right-wing Christians.”
Daubenmire said that the massacre in Orlando showed that “the devil is willing to sacrifice some of his own team in order to get our big players” and warned that gun control will lead to the killing of conservative Christians.
“How long did it take before Obama started talking about gun control?” Daubenmire asked. “How long did it take before you saw him on CNN talking about gun control? How did they get the guns? How long did it take? Not very long, because, see, we’re losing sight of the fact that if they get their guns, our guns, there’ll be more death. There’ll be a lot more death. And when they get their guns, can anybody tell me who’s gonna be dying?”
He said that it's not "gonna be the guys in the ghetto" who are killed due to gun control because "they’re already killing each other,” but rather conservative Christians who are resisting "bowing politically correct to Islam, politically correct to abortion, politically correct to homosexuality” who will die under increased gun control. Daubenmire declared that Islam is “the new religion” and “anybody who’s against this new religion, they’re going to get it.”

Far-Right Pundit: Gays Provoked Orlando Massacre, Should Go Back In The Closet
Submitted by Brian Tashman on Wednesday, 6/15/2016 10:50 am
Timothy Buchanan [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/timothy-buchanan ] of the far-right outlet BarbWire [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/organizations/barbwire ] responded [ http://barbwire.com/2016/06/14/orlando-no-one-wants-consider/ ] yesterday to the massacre at a gay nightclub in Orlando by urging members of the LGBT community to go back into the closet and stop provoking people to commit violent acts by kissing in public [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/anti-gay ]: “It’s worth considering that homosexuals, lesbians, bisexuals and transsexuals might be safer returning to the closet. Flaunting gross immorality and defiant wickedness that is hideous, odious and wretched to an overwhelming majority of people is a foolish and dangerous course of action.”
“Those who come to the United States from other cultures — some of which are infinitely more moral than our own — are going to be offended and repulsed by the rampant depravity that has become a defining characteristic of our culture,” he added. “No amount of education, sensitivity training or political indoctrination will change that.”
Diversity, Buchanan said, is destroying American culture and society, along with the liberal policies of the “evil” Democratic Party and its support for “murder, sexual depravity, lust and rebellion.”
The real problem to be solved, and our only hope for a happy future together is to bridge the divisions that deeply polarize us, and that is not likely to occur any time soon. Why? Because it requires some or most, to forfeit what they refuse to part with–their sinful, selfish and wicked lusts.
Those of us who remember the 1960s recall a time when mass murders, sexual assaults, celebrating perversity and terrorist attacks were rare or unheard of. Abortion was illegal because everyone knew it was evil. Today, these are all commonplace. We were once and for most of our history, largely united in a common belief in God, a common belief in morality and a common respect for law. It was not a perfect paradise, nor was there justice for all. But one generation after World War II, we forgot what and who we are and everyone began to do what was right in his own eyes, but is wrong in God’s eyes.
Contrary to the professions of the Left, diversity is not America’s strength. Diversity is a weakness. For America as a nation, unity is our strength and we have lost it. Certainly, there can exist diversity among a united people. But the unifying identity that Americans once shared has been discarded as unnecessary, condemned as elitist and even rejected as a hindrance to free expression and happiness.
It’s worth considering that homosexuals, lesbians, bisexuals and transsexuals might be safer returning to the closet. Flaunting gross immorality and defiant wickedness that is hideous, odious and wretched to an overwhelming majority of people is a foolish and dangerous course of action.
Those who come to the United States from other cultures–some of which are infinitely more moral than our own–are going to be offended and repulsed by the rampant depravity that has become a defining characteristic of our culture. No amount of education, sensitivity training or political indoctrination will change that.
...
Today we have an entire political party that has devoted itself to dividing and fracturing our nation’s unity. Amazingly, it promotes the most vile forms of wickedness: murder, sexual depravity, lust and rebellion and then condemns the predictable and violent fruit of its own policies and practices.
Hillary Clinton is the face of that party. It’s the party of evil and it must be defeated. If not, its bitter fruit will destroy us all.

Walid Shoebat: 'The Only Ones Moaning Over Fifty Gays Slaughtered Are Liberals, Idiots And Gay Lovers'
Submitted by Kyle Mantyla on Monday, 6/13/2016 10:15 am
Walid Shoebat [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/walid-shoebat ], a supposed ex-terrorist [ http://www.cnn.com/2011/US/07/11/terrorism.expert/ ] who is now an extremist anti-Islam [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/walid-shoebat-wont-fly-anymore-because-pilots-might-be-muslim ] and anti-gay [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/jesus-killed-sodomites-walid-shoebat-furiously-attacks-anti-gay-activists-who-criticized-his , http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/anti-gay ] activist, responded to this weekend's massacre at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida, by attacking gays, Jews, and liberals and declaring that it ought to be illegal to be gay or Muslim in America.
Shoebat was especially upset [ http://shoebat.com/2016/06/12/we-warned-you-three-days-ago-that-a-massacre-by-muslims-in-florida-was-coming-and-no-one-listened-americans-should-care-more-about-gun-rights-more-than-they-care-about-the-massacre-god-bless-gun-rig/ ] with "dumb Jews" like Sam Seder, who mocked him [ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNCasHnEHVc (next below; with comments)]
Instead of complementing us, the mocking liberal Jew Sam, Seder, says that we, not the Muslim “should be under watch”.
This is how the system from media to government repays Christian converts from Islam.
Who is laughing now Mr. Seder? Boy you are dumb and I can’t feel sorry for dumb Jews.
Even when we point a stupid Jew to Evangelical Christians, they too get angry since in their view a Jew can do no evil.
The whole culture is dumber than a nail.
Liberals and gays should all screw each other. Finally I could watch TV and could care less.
...
The only ones moaning over fifty gays slaughtered are liberals, idiots and gay lovers.
...
The U.S. supports Muslim terrorists in Syria so long they get at Russia and Bashar Al-Assad and kill Syrian soldiers. And now I am supposed to only care when gays are killed and I am supposed to jump up and down?
I don’t care about gays who are Muslim loving anti-gun liberals. Stupid people who hate life die. Stupid people who hate life always die.
The haters of God love death.
...
The FBI doesn’t care since the system is impossible to fix unless of course to be “Muslim” should be illegal and to be “Gay” should also be illegal since gays are disgusting and are Muslim-loving anti guns.
Agents have their hands tied by politicians and the system will never make this politically incorrect change, so all I can say is “enjoy the death toll”.

John Stemberger Is 'Tired Of Seeing Special Interest Rainbow Flags' After Orlando Massacre
Submitted by Miranda Blue on Wednesday, 6/15/2016 1:27 pm
The Florida Family Policy Council [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/organizations/florida-family-policy-council ]’s John Stemberger [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/john-stemberger ] wrote in an email [ http://ffpc.convio.net/site/MessageViewer?em_id=3006.0&_ga=1.118184459.349377029.1464722307 ] to his group’s members today that in the wake of the massacre [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/gun-violence ] at a gay club in Orlando on Sunday, he wants to see greater “unity” among Floridians in the form of more American flags and fewer “special interest rainbow flags” in memory of the victims:
The Pulse nightclub is right next to a Dunkin Doughnuts, Wendy’s, Radio Shack and a 7-11 store where I often buy gas and get my children Slurpees. I ride my bike through this area of town often. This is in part why this tragedy has affected me so deeply. This is my community. These are our streets and neighborhoods. The people that were killed and injured are not just “gay.” They are human beings! They are my neighbors! They are fellow Americans! Honestly, I am really tired of seeing special interest rainbow flags and wish we could see more American flags, as we stand together in unity against our greatest mutual enemy, radical Islamic jihadists!
He responded to criticism of conservative Christian LGBT rights opponents in the wake of the attack, saying [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/religious-persecution-rhetoric ] that “Christians should be prepared to be attacked and persecuted if they do not bow down and pledge allegiance to the gay pride flag and all it supposedly represents.” LGBT rights advocates’ strategy, he said, is to “manipulate and bully Christians into submission to the new orthodoxy of the moral revolution.”
Christians should be prepared to be attacked and persecuted if they do not bow down and pledge allegiance to the gay pride flag and all it supposedly represents. In stunned disbelief, I was listening to CNN at 1:30am on Sunday night and I heard the leading gay-rights activist from Los Angeles being interviewed. She openly said you don’t need to find a terrorist cell to find this kind of hatred. All you need to do is look right here in America at fundamentalist Christians. The CNN anchor did NOTHING at all to challenge her or question her about her outrageous claim.
We need to be prepared for the stunning and false narrative of the Left which is that all major world religions, including but especially Christianity, breed hatred and create a hostile environment which "causes" the kind of violence we saw in Orlando. The goal of gay-rights activists is to try and get Christians to stop proclaiming God's design for marriage, gender and human sexuality. And they are not playing fair. The goal to simple. If you disagree in any way, no matter how gentle, loving or respectful they will call you a "hater" and a "bigot." They will scream at you publicly and test how committed you are to your beliefs. Their strategy is to manipulate and bully Christians into submission to the new orthodoxy of the moral revolution. Please know that as for me and "our house" at the FFPC, we will never be moved by this attempt at intimidation.
Stemberger, who is the most prominent anti-LGBT activist in Florida [ http://equalitymatters.org/blog/201408260001 ] and has launched an anti-gay alternative to the Boy Scouts [(linked in) http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=91811986 and preceding and following], said that he received a personal call from Sen. Marco Rubio after the massacre.

GOP lawmaker says Orlando shooting site wasn’t a gay club
House Rules Committee Chairman Pete Sessions, R-Texas, at the Capitol in Washington, Wednesday, May 7, 2014.
J. Scott Applewhite/AP Photo
By Steve Benen
06/15/16 08:00 AM
House Rules Committee Chairman Pete Sessions (R-Texas) has an amazing habit of saying some pretty remarkable things. Yesterday, however, the far-right congressman nevertheless managed to surprise.
For those unfamiliar with Sessions’ background, in 2014, Sessions became strikingly confused about what a “witch hunt [ http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/there-witch-somewhere ]’ is. The year before, Sessions said he believes it’s “immoral [ http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/pete-sessions-extended-jobless-aid-immoral ]” to extend jobless aid to “long-term unemployments [sic].” Around the same time, the congressman said the House should stop worrying about governing and focus exclusively on “messaging [ http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/gop-leader-pushes-messaging-over-governing ].”
Last year, the Texas Republican said he holds President Obama “personally accountable [ http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/leading-house-republican-blames-obama-murders ]” for murders committed by undocumented immigrants, pointing to imaginary evidence [ http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/fact-checker/wp/2015/03/05/lawmaker-claims-illegal-immigrants-released-by-obama-are-committing-a-murder-a-day/ ]. Sessions then insisted [ http://thehill.com/blogs/floor-action/house/236821-gop-chairman-bungles-obamacare-math ] the Affordable Care Act costs Americans $5 million per person. (He was only off by $4,991,000.)
But despite this record, I didn’t see this one [ http://www.thedailybeast.com/cheats/2016/06/14/anti-gay-gop-congressman-pulse-wasn-t-a-gay-club.html ] coming.
Asked on Tuesday afternoon whether the massacre of 49 people at an Orlando gay nightclub changes his opposition to a pro-LGBT bill, House Rules Committee chairman Pete Sessions (R-TX) denied the venue had anything to do with the gay community whatsoever. “It was a young person’s nightclub, I’m told. And there were some [LGBT people] there, but it was mostly Latinos,” told reporters, according to National Journal.
Sessions has stood in firm opposition to the Maloney Amendment, an attachment that would bar federal contractors from discriminating against LGBT individuals.
Let’s set the record straight: the mass shooting took place at a nightclub called Pulse, which describes itself as “the hottest gay bar in Orlando.” The night of the massacre, it was hosting a Latino night, but that doesn’t change the fact that the venue caters to an LGBT audience.
For Sessions to pretend otherwise is bizarre. The Texan’s office told TPM [ http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/pete-sessions-pulse-gay-club-latinos ] the published quotes are correct, but “taken out of context without the background information.” Sessions’ spokesperson said, “What my boss meant to say was that there weren’t only gay individuals at the club but people from all walks of life were present.”
Perhaps, though that’s not what the House Republican said. What’s more, the broader legislative context relates to Sessions’ opposition to an amendment that would ban anti-LGBT discrimination among federal contractors. The point, in other words, is determining whether the Orlando murders might change Sessions’ perspective about preventing employment discrimination.
And it’s against this backdrop that the Texas lawmaker said he doesn’t necessarily consider the gay nightclub a gay nightclub.
Sessions’ perspective evidently isn’t unique among his GOP colleagues: House Republicans are moving forward with plans to block [ http://thehill.com/blogs/floor-action/house/283531-house-gop-leaders-block-lgbt-vote-after-orlando-shooting ] the anti-discrimination policy, regardless of the circumstances surrounding the deadliest mass shooting in American history.
There appears to be a push [ http://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/15/us/politics/trump-immigration-rally-lgbt.html ] in Republican circles this week to exploit the bloodshed in Orlando to woo LGBT voters. The pitch, in effect, is ugly but straightforward: a Muslim killed 49 people in a gay nightclub; Republicans are anti-Muslim; therefore LGBT voters should support Republicans.
If GOP officials seriously expect this strategy to work, they’re going to be disappointed.

Ted Cruz, Who Attended Event Calling For Gays To Be Put To Death, Delivers Characteristically Smug Response To Orlando Attack
Submitted by Brian Tashman on Monday, 6/13/2016 2:00 pm
Seemingly attempting to outdo Donald Trump in trying to come up with the most cynical and thoughtless responses to the massacre in Orlando, Ted Cruz [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/ted-cruz ] released a statement [ https://www.facebook.com/tedcruzpage/posts/10154196246167464 ] yesterday condemning liberals for what he claims is insufficient condemnation of anti-LGBT violence perpetrated by groups like ISIS and the Iranian government:
For all the Democrats who are loud champions of the gay and lesbian community whenever there is a culture battle waging, now is the opportunity to speak out against an ideology that calls for the murder of gays and lesbians. ISIS and the theocracy in Iran (supported with American taxpayer dollars) regularly murder homosexuals, throwing them from buildings and burying them under rocks. This is wrong, it is evil, and we must all stand against it. Every human being has a right to live according to his or her faith and conscience, and nobody has a right to murder someone who doesn’t share their faith or sexual orientation. If you’re a Democratic politician and you really want to stand for LGBT, show real courage and stand up against the vicious ideology that has targeted our fellow Americans for murder.
Aside from ignoring the ongoing efforts to battle [ http://www.haaretz.com/middle-east-news/1.724517 ] ISIS [ http://www.cnn.com/2016/06/11/world/isis-libya-sirte-offensive/ ] terrorists [ http://english.alarabiya.net/en/News/middle-east/2016/06/09/ISISI-loses-ground-on-fronts-in-Syria-Iraq.html ] and making false [ http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2016/mar/17/donald-trump/no-donald-trump-we-are-not-giving-iran-150-billion/ ] claims about U.S. tax money going to Iran, Cruz said that liberals are too cowardly to condemn those who call “for the murder of gays and lesbians,” absurdly suggesting that U.S. leaders haven’t already condemned terrorist atrocities and ISIS’s ideology.
We wonder why Cruz himself didn’t display such heroism when he spoke at a conference late last year [(linked in) http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=118394550 and following] where the main speaker, Kevin Swanson [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/kevin-swanson ], a longtime and notorious advocate of the government instituting the death penalty for gay people [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/cruz-huckabee-and-jindal-will-join-pastor-who-wants-gays-put-death ], said repeatedly on stage [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/if-kevin-swansons-son-got-gay-married-id-sit-cow-manure-and-id-spread-it-all-over-my-body ] that the Bible calls for gays and lesbians to be put to death [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/kevin-swanson-no-death-penalty-gays-until-they-have-time-repent ] and argued that America should introduce capital punishment against unrepentant homosexuals [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/gop-confab-ends-call-execute-gays-who-dont-repent-send-queen-elsa-back-hell ] once society is moved in that direction.
That conference was also attended by Cruz’s father and his then-rivals in the GOP presidential race Mike Huckabee and Bobby Jindal.
The summit, called the National Religious Liberties Conference [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/organizations/national-religious-liberties-conference ], even distributed literature calling for the death penalty for gay people and others [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/death-penalty-gays-literature-right-wing-conference ], mentioning stoning and throwing people off cliffs as possible forms of executions.
And yet Ted Cruz now has the gall to lecture liberals about the importance of showing “real courage" in the face of those who want to put gays to death.
Update: Cruz also once compared LGBT rights advocates to jihadists [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/ted-cruz-gay-community-waging-jihad-against-religious-freedom ]:

Donald Trump, Who Opposes LGBT Rights, Claims Mantle Of LGBT Community
Submitted by Brian Tashman on Tuesday, 6/14/2016 2:40 pm
Days after telling a meeting of anti-LGBT activists that he is with them “100 percent [ http://www.huffingtonpost.com/michelangelo-signorile/trump-dangerous-to-lgbt-equality_b_10396552.html ],” Donald Trump [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/donald-trump ] sent a tweet today thanking the LGBT community for what he apparently thinks is its uniform support for his presidential candidacy.
Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump
Thank you to the LGBT community! I will fight for you while Hillary brings in more people that will threaten your freedoms and beliefs.
12:31 PM - 14 Jun 2016
[ https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/742771576039460864 (with comments)]
Trump is trying to use the massacre in Orlando to win support for his cause of attacking all Muslim-Americans [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/anti-muslim ], including LGBT Muslims.
We know that Trump is pretending to be a friend to LGBT people in order to justify his discriminatory proposals, such as his proposed ban on the world’s 1.6 billion Muslims from stepping foot in the U.S., because his own words and actions make clear that he is no ally of the LGBT community [ http://new.www.huffingtonpost.com/brian-tashman/donald-trump-cozies-up-to_b_10377170.html ].
He has sharply criticized the Supreme Court’s marriage equality ruling [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/donald-trump-trust-me-overturn-shocking-gay-marriage-decision ] and pledged to appoint judges “as close to Scalia as you could find [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/trump-says-his-scotus-nominees-would-be-close-scalia-you-could-find ],” referring to the late justice known for his broadsides against gay people and the “homosexual agenda [ http://www.slate.com/blogs/outward/2016/02/16/antonin_scalia_s_anti_gay_legacy.html ].”
Not only would Trump radically reshape the judiciary, where many key LGBT issues are decided, but he has also vowed to sign [ http://www.washingtonblade.com/2015/12/23/trump-gives-conditional-support-for-religious-freedom-bill/ ] anti-LGBT activists’ top legislative priority, the misnamed First Amendment Defense Act, which would give legal approval to discrimination against LGBT people, and gave his blessing [ http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/donald-trump-value-voters_us_5605745de4b0dd85030747a5 ] to Kentucky clerk Kim Davis’ attempt to deny marriage licenses to same-sex couples.
And that’s not to mention the fact that his attacks on women, Latinos and immigrants are also attacks on many LGBT people.
...
Frank Amedia, a pastor who serves [ http://time.com/4342885/donald-trump-immigration-hispanic-evangelicals/ ] as Trump’s “liaison for Christian policy,” describes HIV/AIDS [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/trump-christian-policy-adviser-apostle-who-stopped-tsunami-says-aids-result-unnatural-sex ] as “a disease that comes because of unnatural sex.” Trump’s frequent campaign surrogate Robert Jeffress, a Southern Baptist preacher, has blasted gays for living a “filthy,” “miserable” and “perverse” “lifestyle” that he says encourages child abuse and the coming of the Antichrist [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/trumps-team-bigoted-unhinged-conspiracy-theorists-benefiting-donald-trumps-campaign ].
One of Trump’s top advisers, Ben Carson, made waves during his unsuccessful presidential bid with his [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/ben-carson-conspiracy-books-prove-gay-rights-are-communist-plot-against-america ] bizarre [ http://thinkprogress.org/justice/2015/03/04/3629469/ben-carson-prison-sex/ ], ludicrous [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/ben-carson-explains-how-gay-marriage-marxist-plot-impose-new-world-order ] and [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/ben-carson-gay-rights-pro-choice-activists-use-hate-speech-are-enemies-america ] offensive [ http://www.slate.com/blogs/weigel/2013/03/28/_be_they_gays_be_they_nambla_be_they_people_who_believe_in_beastiality.html ] diatribes [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/ben-carson-lgbt-affirming-pastors-put-their-finger-eye-god ] against gay rights.
Trump has also partnered with [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/trumps-team-bigoted-unhinged-conspiracy-theorists-benefiting-donald-trumps-campaign ] Harlem’s notorious 'stone homos [ ]' pastor James David Manning [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/james-david-manning ] and far-right radio show host Alex Jones [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/alex-jones ], who thinks the LGBT rights movement is a “suicide cult” bent on the destruction of humanity [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/alex-jones-endgame-lgbt-movement-asexual-humanoid-and-human-extermination ].
Trump is not interested in promoting LGBT rights. He is simply opportunistically trying to use a community hit by tragedy as cover for his own bigotry.

Donald Trump Once Again Suggests Obama Is A Terrorist Sympathizer
Submitted by Brian Tashman on Monday, 6/13/2016 10:55 am
Fresh from congratulating himself [ https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/742034549232766976 ] “for being right on radical Islamic terrorism,” Donald Trump [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/donald-trump ] made the rounds on the morning shows today [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/election-2016 ], where he hinted that President Obama may actually be rooting for the terrorists.
Inae Oh of Mother Jones reports [ http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2016/06/donald-trump-orlanda-birther-like-conspiracy-theory ]:
Referring to Obama and the threat of terrorism, Trump said during a call-in with Fox & Friends [ http://www.politico.com/story/2016/06/islamic-state-orlando-shooter-omar-mateen-224249 ], "He doesn't get it or he gets it better than anybody understand. It's one or the other." Gets it better than anybody understands? In other words, Obama has a secret—and nefarious—agenda.
"We're led by a man that either is not tough, not smart, or he's got something else in mind," Trump continued. "And the something else in mind, you know, people can't believe it. People cannot—they cannot believe that President Obama is acting the ways he acts and can't even mention the words radical Islamic terrorism. There's something going on. It's inconceivable."
When asked about his comments later on Good Morning America, Trump reiterated the same message, insinuating the president is willfully ignoring the problem.
"There are a lot of people that think maybe he doesn't want to get it," he told Savannah Guthrie. " A lot of people think maybe he doesn't want to know about it. I happen to think he just doesn't know what he's doing."
As we’ve noted in the past, Trump has consistently suggested that President Obama is not only a secret Muslim but also a supporter of terrorist groups [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/58-donald-trump-conspiracy-theories-and-counting-definitive-trump-conspiracy-guide#obama ].
Trump has falsely claimed that Obama is actively [ https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/503988326471585792 ] aiding [ https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/512341480728698880 ] ISIS [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/trump-praises-putin-interview-far-right-conspiracy-theorist ] and said that when it comes to Obama’s approach to terrorism, “maybe he doesn’t want to get rid of the problem [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/donald-trump-maybe-obama-doesnt-want-stop-terrorism ].”
At one campaign rally, Trump said that the president is ignoring the threat of terrorism for surreptitious reasons [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/trump-theres-something-we-dont-know-about-obama ]: “We can’t close our eyes. I don’t know what’s wrong with Obama, he wants to close his eyes and pretend it’s not happening. Why is he so emphatic on not solving the problem? There’s something we don’t know about. There’s something we don’t know about.”

Rick Wiles: Orlando Massacre Was God's Judgment On America
Submitted by Brian Tashman on Wednesday, 6/15/2016 11:45 am
On Monday [ http://cfvod.kaltura.com/pd/p/1949551/sp/194955100/serveFlavor/entryId/1_8lel2518/v/11/flavorId/1_zv84qajh/name/a.mp3 ], End Times [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/end-times ] broadcaster Rick Wiles [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/rick-wiles , http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/organizations/trunews ] said that the terrorist attack at the gay nightclub Pulse in Orlando represented the judgment of God on America.
He said that more terrorist attacks are coming to the U.S. because America’s security apparatus has been “infiltrated” by terrorists and “we have a Muslim jihadist in the White House, Barack Hussein Obama, a jihadist.”
“God has been crying out to this nation: Either voluntarily humble yourselves to your knees and call upon me to protect your or continue in your rebellion and be brought to your knees by your enemies,” he said. “But either way, America, you’re going to your knees. I’ve said for years, America, if you continue to reject the mercy of the cross, you will live by the tyranny of the sword, and that’s what’s happening right now.”
Wiles, who once said that “Ebola could solve America’s problem” with homosexuality [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/rick-wiles-ebola-could-solve-americas-problems-atheism-and-homosexuality ], added that he has “no ill will against any gay or lesbian.”

North Carolina Lt. Governor: LGBT Rights Proof We've Turned Our Back On God

North Carolina Lt. Gov. Dan Forest [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/dan-forest ] is apparently not above appearing on “Trunews [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/organizations/trunews ],” the [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/rick-wiles-obama-plans-dictatorship-sodomites-will-make-us-slaves ] radical [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/rick-wiles-time-flee-america-due-gay-marriage ] anti-LGBT [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/rick-wiles-ebola-could-solve-americas-problems-atheism-and-homosexuality ] radio [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/these-freaks-are-going-get-us-all-killed-rick-wiles-warns-target-restroom-policy-will-spark- ] program [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/rick-wiles-nuclear-holocaust-will-kill-us-all-thanks-gay-people ] hosted [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/rick-wiles-somebodys-going-die-due-gay-marriage ] by [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/wake-rick-wiles-his-gay-nightmare-everyone-dies ] far-right [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/rick-wiles-blame-gay-marriage-and-abortion-rights-financial-turmoil ] conspiracy [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/rick-wiles-homosexual-gaystapo-will-murder-christians-kim-davis-reign-terror ] theorist [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/wiles-gay-rights-fanatics-are-going-get-us-all-killed ] Rick Wiles [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/rick-wiles-warns-adolf-hitlers-race-super-gay-male-soldiers-taking-over-america , http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/rick-wiles ], where he insisted Wednesday [ http://www.trunews.com/trunews-060116-lt-gov-dan-forest-trasngender-tyranny/ ] that his state’s new anti-LGBT law is in no way discriminatory.
In fact, the GOP official said, “women and children” were the ones “being discriminated against” under LGBT rights ordinances like the one passed by the city of Charlotte, which was voided by the new state law.
He said that such measures were approved because “we have a lack of moral compass in our country right now, we’ve taken our eyes off God in America, we have turned our back on God, we have forgotten God in a lot of ways, so the moral compass is broken here.”
Forest went on to say that anti-LGBT laws like North Carolina’s only “discriminate against behavior, not against people,” comparing them to traffic laws: “If I want to go out and drive 95 miles an hour down the interstate in North Carolina because I feel like doing that, I don’t have the right to do that. It doesn’t mean the law is discriminating against me, it’s discriminating against my behavior of wanting to drive 95.”
Naturally, Forest went on to blame the controversy over the law on the media.

John Haller: LGBT Acceptance A Sign Of 'End Times'
Submitted by Nabi Dressler on Monday, 6/13/2016 2:59 pm
On Jan Markell [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/jan-markell ]’s radio show [ http://www.oneplace.com/ministries/understanding-the-times/player/the-days-of-noah-and-lot-re-visited-536678.html ] Saturday, John Haller [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/john-haller ] of Ohio’s Fellowship Bible Chapel [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/organizations/fellowship ] said that the LGBT “agenda” is a sign of the End Times on par with “actual wars.”
“The Scripture says that eventually people will be given over to a reprobate mind and they will essentially lose the ability to reason,” Haller said. “Another way of saying it a little less politically correct would be, they lose the ability to reason and they think like morons. And I think that we are exactly at that time. I think it will get worse. We are seeing that play out right in front of our eyes.”
“Both the days of Noah and the days of Lot existed in the historical context. What was going on then was wickedness and violence filled the earth in the days of Noah, and homosexuality was running rampant in Sodom and Gomorrah in the days of Lot. This is exactly what we’re seeing,” he added.
Haller said that France has become a warzone, saying, “This is happening all over the world, let alone the fact that actual wars are taking place, but then we have the, what I would call the LGBTQIANDIA+ agenda. They keep adding letters to that.”
Citing the Bible, Haller said that the recent mainstream support of LGBT people indicates the Second Coming of Jesus is near.
“Over Jesus’ life, up until the last week when he rode into Jerusalem, of all the Messianic prophecies — rough estimate — 40 percent of those prophecies about his first coming were fulfilled in roughly 33 years," Haller said. “Sixty percent of them were fulfilled in the last week. And so what you saw was this exponential increase in the acceleration of these prophecies coming to pass. That’s exactly what’s going to happen in the End Times, and I talk every week about the convergence of all these different lines of Bible prophecy, from Israel to morality to one-world government, one-world religion.
“All of these things were in play, and they all converge and finish at the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, but as we get closer to that time, the lines converge and it’s almost like we’re in the vortex, for lack of a better example, the vortex of a tornado, where it’s very turbulent.”

Rick Wiles: 'Round Up The Muslims And Ship Them Out Of This Country'
Submitted by Brian Tashman on Wednesday, 6/15/2016 2:00 pm
On his “Trunews” radio program on Monday [ http://cfvod.kaltura.com/pd/p/1949551/sp/194955100/serveFlavor/entryId/1_8lel2518/v/11/flavorId/1_zv84qajh/name/a.mp3 ], after declaring that the Orlando massacre represented God’s judgment on America [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/rick-wiles-orlando-massacre-was-gods-judgment-america (above)], Rick Wiles said that the U.S. government should “outlaw Islam” and “confiscate Muslims [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/anti-muslim ].”
“The left is calling for gun control What we need is Muslim control. We don’t need to confiscate guns, we need to confiscate Muslims. You’re not going to solve this problem until you round up the Muslims and ship them out of this country. End of discussion. Outlaw Islam. Make it an illegal religion. Don’t tell me it can’t be done. Pass a constitutional amendment that says we’re a Christian nation and Islam is illegal. Done. Get rid of it. Stamp it out before it destroys civilization.”
“Anyone who is a practicing Muslim is mentally ill,” he added, before claiming that the U.S. government is bringing terrorists into the country. “We’re all going to die, gay and straight, left and right, Republican and Democrat, we’re all going to die if we don’t get this stopped really soon.”
[audio ( https://soundcloud.com/rightwingwatch/wiles-ban-islam-round-up-and-deport-all-muslims ) embedded]
Wiles also hailed Donald Trump for his recent suggestion that President Obama may be a terrorist sympathizer [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/donald-trump-once-again-suggests-obama-terrorist-sympathizer (above)].
“I took that as Donald Trump was insinuating that the American people must now consider the possibility that Obama has a hidden, nefarious plan underway which is covering for all of these Muslims coming into the country,” he said. “I think he got very close to it today…. When you said that this morning, Mr. Trump, you were extremely close to nailing it, what this really is, that we have an Islamic jihadist in the White House.”
He also claimed that the Obama administration “hired Omar Mateen,” the Orlando shooter, to work for a security company that contracts with the government. (Mateen secured the job in 2007, two years before Obama took office).
[audio ( https://soundcloud.com/rightwingwatch/wiles-trump-obama-muslim ) embedded]
Wiles concluded: “If there’s a Muslim living in your town, there’s a high probability you have a jihadist cell in your town.”

Seattle SWAT arrest Greenwood man for allegedly threatening mosque
Seattle police took a Greenwood man into custody after he allegedly made online threats to a local mosque.
(KIRO 7)
By Dyer Oxley
June 14, 2016 @ 6:17 pm
Seattle police called in a SWAT team and negotiators to a North Seattle neighborhood Tuesday afternoon after receiving information about threats made to a local mosque.
The incident happened in the wake of other threats made to a mosque in Redmond [ http://mynorthwest.com/316095/redmond-mosque-receives-direct-threat-after-orlando-massacre/ ].
The suspect, a 37-year-old man, has been taken into custody. Police were notified by the man’s out-of-state friend about threats he was reportedly making online.
“We received information about Internet threats, and working with our partners, we were able to respond,” Captain Sean O’Donell said [ https://www.periscope.tv/HenryKIRO7/1lDGLeZBLaLJm ].
“We take this very seriously,” he said. “We are very aware of the situation in Orlando and we are taking steps to ensure the safety of the individuals at the mosque … we received information and acted on it immediately out of an abundance of caution.”
The man allegedly posted threats to the Seattle mosque over the Internet. In a separate online post he also allegedly claimed to have purchased an assault rifle and extra ammunition.
Police made contact with the man at his Greenwood apartment at around 3:30 p.m. He came out on his own volition, police said.
Police reportedly had contact with the same man in the past over other harassing comments he made to another local mosque. Seattle police are working with the FBI to further investigate the matter. The man is currently being investigated for malicious harassment, according to Seattle police. It is expected that he will be booked into King County Jail.

“This is like something out of a science fiction/horror film where they’re electing a cult, demon, Antichrist, Linda Blair,” he added.
Later, this happened.

Jim Bakker's Guest Warns That Hillary Clinton Has The 'Spirit Of Antichrist'
Submitted by Brian Tashman on Monday, 6/13/2016 12:20 pm
Last week, televangelist Jim Bakker [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/jim-bakker ] hosted [ https://jimbakkershow.com/video/shocking-prophecies-election-day-1/ ] Don and Mary Colbert of “Divine Health” and Mark Taylor, a Florida man who claims that God told him that Donald Trump will be the next president, to discuss the upcoming election [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/election-2016 ].
Unsurprisingly, they were all enthralled with Taylor’s “message from God,” and were quite confident that the prophecy will materialize and God will put Trump in the White House.
Don Colbert, for his part, urged viewers to stand with Trump or face “the spirit of Antichrist” found in Hillary Clinton [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/hillary-clinton ]:
When I saw this prophecy, when the spirit of God hit me like someone slapped me in the face, it awakened me and I said, ‘Wait, whose side am I going to be on?’ Remember Moses? Remember the Korah rebellion? Remember the people that sided with Korah, how the earth opened up and swallowed them?
Well, we as Christians have got to make the right choice because if we don’t, this nation is in decline and this nation will be in judgment and our children and our grandchildren will not have the great America that we want for them.
That spirit of Antichrist is majorly on one of these candidates, and that’s Hillary Clinton, and Jesus even said there will be many Antichrists in the world; well, that spirit of Antichrist is on our president right now. So, as Christians, we have got to turn out and vote. If we don’t turn out and vote, we are electing Hillary Clinton.

D'Souza Calls New Movie A 'Weapon' He'll Drop Like 'A Grenade' Into Democratic Convention
Submitted by Peter Montgomery on Wednesday, 6/15/2016 2:59 pm
Dinesh D’Souza [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/dinesh-dsouza ], who has seemingly abandoned his pretense of being a scholar to become an overt right-wing propagandist [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/dinesh-d-souza-s-america-book-not-better-movie ], has been pushing his latest movie, “Hillary’s America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party,” for months. He bragged back in March that it is so “emotionally powerful” that it will cause Democrats to need counseling [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/dinesh-dsouza-says-his-new-movie-so-emotionally-powerful-itll-cause-democrats-need-counselin ].
At last week’s Road to Majority conference [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/organizations/faith-and-freedom-coalition ], Religious Right activists were subjected to the trailer [ http://www.dineshdsouza.com/news/hillarys-america-trailer/ ] for “Hillary’s America” three times on Friday. D’Souza described the movie as “a retelling of the whole story of progressivism and the Democratic Party.” In it, he purports to expose the “soul of the Democratic Party.” The trailer features dramatic re-enactments of southern Democrats’ support for slavery, the KKK and Jim Crow.
Sound familiar? This is territory trod a full decade ago by D’Souza’s fellow conservative propagandist David Barton [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/exposing-david-bartons-bunk , http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/david-barton ]. At the time, PFAW called Barton’s DVD “Setting the Record Straight: American History in Black and White [ http://www.pfaw.org/media-center/publications/david-barton-propaganda-masquerading-history ],” “staggeringly misleading” and “one-sided history.” The RNC had been bankrolling Barton’s outreach to African American and Hispanic churches. In Barton’s version of the Democrats-as-the-source-of-all-evil tale, history conveniently ended with passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. That allowed him to ignore the past half century, Goldwater’s opposition to civil rights legislation, the GOP’s infamous “southern strategy,” the GOP’s embrace of the segregationist “Dixiecrats,” and the modern Right Wing’s record of inflaming white racial resentment and using racial dog-whistles for political gain — as if it were a complete mystery why African Americans would ever vote for a Democratic candidate.
D’Souza seems to update Barton by portraying Democratic support for social safety net programs as a means of moving “from slavery to enslavement.” After all, what progressivism really means is “social engineering and social control.”
Of course, thanks to the success of his earlier “documentaries,” D’Souza’s film will have Hollywood-level production values, complete with sinister, pounding music to drive the point home. According to a memorable description by Michelle Goldberg [ http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/politics/2016/06/the_awkward_spectacle_of_donald_trump_at_the_road_to_majority_conference.html ], the movie’s “farcical bombast” is “aimed at those who find Michael Bay films too restrained and artful.”
Bombast is in fact D’Souza’s aim. “A movie is a weapon,” he declared at a Friday evening session at Road to Majority. “There’s a much bigger battle. There’s a political battle, but underneath that there’s a cultural battle, and…underneath that is a moral and spiritual battle.” Democrats have controlled the levers of culture, he said, and there’s a “desperate need” for conservatives to “up the ante on all fronts.” He said his new movie “blows the lid” off the “gangsterism” of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, who he said is “at the pinnacle of this whole crime syndicate.”
“What are these Democrats hiding?” he asks in the trailer. “What if the goal of the Democratic Party is to steal the most valuable thing the world has ever produced? What if their plan is to steal America?”
“Hillary’s America” is scheduled to open on July 22, between the two parties’ political conventions. The idea, he said, is to “drop this grenade in the middle of the Democratic convention.”
Of course this isn’t the first time D’Souza has tried to sway the outcome of an election. His 2012 movie, “2016: Obama’s America [ http://mediamatters.org/blog/2012/08/27/fear-and-loathing-in-2016-obamas-america/189581 ],” made a lot of money, but failed to prevent Obama’s re-election. D’Souza has been fuming for years [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/d-souza-obama-waging-war-conservatives-instead-islamic-radicals ] that if only more voters had seen the movie, the outcome would have been different, a claim he made again on Friday night. It was part of his pitch for people to take their friends and fellow churchgoers to see his new movie on its opening weekend; he said a good opening would take it from 1500 to 2000 theaters.
“Hillary’s America” is the second of D’Souza’s films aimed at keeping Clinton out of the White House. That was also the goal of 2014’s “America: Imagine the World Without Her [ http://prospect.org/article/how-did-racist-right-wing-fantasy-presented-truth-come-top-new-york-times-bestseller-list ],” which portrayed Obama and Clinton working together to carry out Saul Alinsky’s plan to lead America down the path to national suicide and socialist tyranny. The two movies also appear to have something else in common: D’Souza complaining that he was a victim of political persecution in his conviction for violating campaign finance laws (to which he pled guilty [ http://www.politico.com/story/2014/05/dinesh-dsouza-pleads-guilty-illegal-campaign-contribution-106882 ]).
Like many Road to Victory speakers, D’Souza closed by making a pitch for people to elect Donald Trump [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/donald-trump ] in spite of his obvious shortcomings. Like the Super Bowl, he said, elections come down to two competing teams, and the winner gets to do what it wants with America.
It is a “true and grim fact of politics,” he said, that you have to fight alongside people who don’t agree with you on all things. We are, he said in a “one of these bizarre moments in American politics,” but that is where we are and we have to choose between the actual choices before us [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/election-2016 , http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/2016-candidates ]:
And so it seems to me that here we are, and the question before us is, do we want this Obama-Hillary machine, which has been grinding us down, not just picking our wallets but in a sense stealing— my book is “Stealing America,” and by stealing America I don’t just mean our money. I mean stealing our freedom. I mean stealing our American dream. I mean stealing our aspirations, stealing our ability to be who we are and pray as we wish and speak as we believe and think as we will.

Faithful Word Baptist Church
http://www.faithfulwordbaptist.org/
Our Pastor
Pastor Steven Anderson was born and raised in Sacramento, CA. At age 18, he travelled throughout Germany and Eastern Europe for 3 months serving in local independent Baptist churches, studying foreign languages, and getting experience in the ministry. It was on this trip that he met his future wife, Zsuzsanna, while out soul-winning in the streets of Munich, Bavaria. He eventually led her to the Lord, and they were married shortly thereafter. They have been married for over 15 years, and God has blessed them with 9 beautiful children.
Pastor Anderson started Faithful Word Baptist Church on December 25, 2005. He holds no college degree but has well over 140 chapters of the Bible memorized word-for-word, including approximately half of the New Testament. Today, most Baptist churches are started by Bible colleges. However, the Bible makes it clear that the church is the pillar and ground of the truth, not a school. Faithful Word Baptist Church is a totally independent Baptist church, and Pastor Anderson was sent out by an independent Baptist church in Northern California to start it the old-fashioned way by knocking doors and winning souls to Christ.

Border Militia Co-Founder Convicted Of Child Molestation In Arizona
A 2007 photo showing Chris Simcox, founder and President of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps, in Phoenix.
06/09/2016
An Arizona jury on Wednesday convicted the co-founder of a border militia group of molesting a 5-year-old girl but acquitted him of more serious sex charges, court officials said.
Christopher Allen Simcox, who co-founded the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps in 2005, was found guilty of two felony counts of child molestation and one felony count of providing obscene material to a minor by the Maricopa County Superior Court jury.
Simcox, 55, was cleared of three felony counts of sexual conduct with a 6-year-old girl, charges that carried mandatory sentences of life in prison.
He faces up to 24 years in prison on each molestation charge at his scheduled July 5 sentencing, prosecutors said.

Theodore Shoebat On Orlando Massacre: It's 'The State's Job To Kill The Sodomites,' Not Vigilantes
Submitted by Kyle Mantyla on Tuesday, 6/14/2016 10:26 am
Last night, extremist anti-gay activist Theodore Shoebat [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/theodore-shoebat ] posted an hour-long video [ http://shoebat.com/2016/06/13/what-the-media-is-not-telling-you-about-the-islamic-massacre-in-orlando/ ] in response to the massacre at a gay nightclub in Orlando over the weekend in which he, like his father, expressed no sympathy for those "sodomites" who died because the entire tragedy was nothing more than "scum killing scum."
Both Islam and homosexuality are aberrations, he declared, and "Muslims kill each other all the time [and] sodomites kill each other all the time," so this case of a Muslim killing dozens of gay people was nothing more than "mutant killing mutant, devil killing devil."
"Sodomites are criminals" and do not deserve the prayers of Christians, Shoebat stated. "The sodomites who were killed in this club were not innocent people. They were not good people. They were not people who were just victims who we should just feel sorry for. It was scum killing scum."
The real victims of this attack, Shoebat said, are people like him who are being unfairly painted as radicals and likened to ISIS simply because they openly [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/theodore-shoebat-praises-russia-again-calls-gays-be-executed ] advocate [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/theodore-shoebat-homosexuality-leads-cannibalism-kill-those-who-won-t-submit-christianity ] putting gay people to death [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/theodore-shoebat-calls-global-inquisition-put-gays-death ].
Shoebat, who last year was featured alongside several congressmen and GOP presidential candidates in an anti-gay "documentary [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/light-wins ]," stated that he does not support the actions of the man who opened fired on the nightclub — not because he doesn't think that gay people should be killed, but simply because executing gay people is the job of the government, not vigilantes.
"I don't believe in vigilantism, but I do believe in the government killing the sodomites," he explained. "I do believe in the government arresting the sodomites and executing them for homosexuality. Under my rule, that sodomite club in Orlando, it would have been destroyed, it would have been demolished, bulldozed and all the bastards in there would have been arrested, tried, found guilty for homosexuality and executed."
"What this guy did was vigilantism," Shoebat stated, which he doesn't support because it's "the state's job to kill the sodomites."

Dave Daubenmire: Gays Murdered In Orlando Were On The Devil's Team
Submitted by Nabi Dressler on Tuesday, 6/14/2016 11:48 am
On his “Pass the Salt [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/organizations/pass-salt ]” show [ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfBE1RoYYoI (next below; with comments)]
on Monday, Religious Right activist “Coach” Dave Daubenmire [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/dave-daubenmire ] addressed this weekend’s massacre at a gay nightclub in Orlando, claiming that the gay people murdered in the massacre were sacrificed by the devil in order to advance his larger goal of implementing gun control [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/gun-control ] and siccing the government after Christians [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/religion ].
“This shooting down in Orlando, Florida? It will soon be my fault,” Daubenmire said. “It will soon be the fault of radical, right-wing Christians.”
Daubenmire said that the massacre in Orlando showed that “the devil is willing to sacrifice some of his own team in order to get our big players” and warned that gun control will lead to the killing of conservative Christians.
“How long did it take before Obama started talking about gun control?” Daubenmire asked. “How long did it take before you saw him on CNN talking about gun control? How did they get the guns? How long did it take? Not very long, because, see, we’re losing sight of the fact that if they get their guns, our guns, there’ll be more death. There’ll be a lot more death. And when they get their guns, can anybody tell me who’s gonna be dying?”
He said that it's not "gonna be the guys in the ghetto" who are killed due to gun control because "they’re already killing each other,” but rather conservative Christians who are resisting "bowing politically correct to Islam, politically correct to abortion, politically correct to homosexuality” who will die under increased gun control. Daubenmire declared that Islam is “the new religion” and “anybody who’s against this new religion, they’re going to get it.”

Far-Right Pundit: Gays Provoked Orlando Massacre, Should Go Back In The Closet
Submitted by Brian Tashman on Wednesday, 6/15/2016 10:50 am
Timothy Buchanan [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/timothy-buchanan ] of the far-right outlet BarbWire [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/organizations/barbwire ] responded [ http://barbwire.com/2016/06/14/orlando-no-one-wants-consider/ ] yesterday to the massacre at a gay nightclub in Orlando by urging members of the LGBT community to go back into the closet and stop provoking people to commit violent acts by kissing in public [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/anti-gay ]: “It’s worth considering that homosexuals, lesbians, bisexuals and transsexuals might be safer returning to the closet. Flaunting gross immorality and defiant wickedness that is hideous, odious and wretched to an overwhelming majority of people is a foolish and dangerous course of action.”
“Those who come to the United States from other cultures — some of which are infinitely more moral than our own — are going to be offended and repulsed by the rampant depravity that has become a defining characteristic of our culture,” he added. “No amount of education, sensitivity training or political indoctrination will change that.”
Diversity, Buchanan said, is destroying American culture and society, along with the liberal policies of the “evil” Democratic Party and its support for “murder, sexual depravity, lust and rebellion.”
The real problem to be solved, and our only hope for a happy future together is to bridge the divisions that deeply polarize us, and that is not likely to occur any time soon. Why? Because it requires some or most, to forfeit what they refuse to part with–their sinful, selfish and wicked lusts.
Those of us who remember the 1960s recall a time when mass murders, sexual assaults, celebrating perversity and terrorist attacks were rare or unheard of. Abortion was illegal because everyone knew it was evil. Today, these are all commonplace. We were once and for most of our history, largely united in a common belief in God, a common belief in morality and a common respect for law. It was not a perfect paradise, nor was there justice for all. But one generation after World War II, we forgot what and who we are and everyone began to do what was right in his own eyes, but is wrong in God’s eyes.
Contrary to the professions of the Left, diversity is not America’s strength. Diversity is a weakness. For America as a nation, unity is our strength and we have lost it. Certainly, there can exist diversity among a united people. But the unifying identity that Americans once shared has been discarded as unnecessary, condemned as elitist and even rejected as a hindrance to free expression and happiness.
It’s worth considering that homosexuals, lesbians, bisexuals and transsexuals might be safer returning to the closet. Flaunting gross immorality and defiant wickedness that is hideous, odious and wretched to an overwhelming majority of people is a foolish and dangerous course of action.
Those who come to the United States from other cultures–some of which are infinitely more moral than our own–are going to be offended and repulsed by the rampant depravity that has become a defining characteristic of our culture. No amount of education, sensitivity training or political indoctrination will change that.
...
Today we have an entire political party that has devoted itself to dividing and fracturing our nation’s unity. Amazingly, it promotes the most vile forms of wickedness: murder, sexual depravity, lust and rebellion and then condemns the predictable and violent fruit of its own policies and practices.
Hillary Clinton is the face of that party. It’s the party of evil and it must be defeated. If not, its bitter fruit will destroy us all.

LOS ANGELES -- Police found a loaded assault rifle with magazines rigged to allow 60 shots to be fired in quick succession, along with 15 pounds of chemicals mixed and ready to explode in the car of an Indiana man who said he was headed to a gay pride event [ http://www.cbsnews.com/news/heavily-armed-man-arrested-near-california-pride-parade/ ], authorities revealed Tuesday.

Walid Shoebat: 'The Only Ones Moaning Over Fifty Gays Slaughtered Are Liberals, Idiots And Gay Lovers'
Submitted by Kyle Mantyla on Monday, 6/13/2016 10:15 am
Walid Shoebat [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/walid-shoebat ], a supposed ex-terrorist [ http://www.cnn.com/2011/US/07/11/terrorism.expert/ ] who is now an extremist anti-Islam [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/walid-shoebat-wont-fly-anymore-because-pilots-might-be-muslim ] and anti-gay [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/jesus-killed-sodomites-walid-shoebat-furiously-attacks-anti-gay-activists-who-criticized-his , http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/anti-gay ] activist, responded to this weekend's massacre at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida, by attacking gays, Jews, and liberals and declaring that it ought to be illegal to be gay or Muslim in America.
Shoebat was especially upset [ http://shoebat.com/2016/06/12/we-warned-you-three-days-ago-that-a-massacre-by-muslims-in-florida-was-coming-and-no-one-listened-americans-should-care-more-about-gun-rights-more-than-they-care-about-the-massacre-god-bless-gun-rig/ ] with "dumb Jews" like Sam Seder, who mocked him [ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNCasHnEHVc (next below; with comments)]
for saying that he refuses to fly [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/walid-shoebat-wont-fly-anymore-because-pilots-might-be-muslim ] on commercial airlines because a pilot may be a Muslim:
Instead of complementing us, the mocking liberal Jew Sam, Seder, says that we, not the Muslim “should be under watch”.
This is how the system from media to government repays Christian converts from Islam.
Who is laughing now Mr. Seder? Boy you are dumb and I can’t feel sorry for dumb Jews.
Even when we point a stupid Jew to Evangelical Christians, they too get angry since in their view a Jew can do no evil.
The whole culture is dumber than a nail.
Liberals and gays should all screw each other. Finally I could watch TV and could care less.
...
The only ones moaning over fifty gays slaughtered are liberals, idiots and gay lovers.
...
The U.S. supports Muslim terrorists in Syria so long they get at Russia and Bashar Al-Assad and kill Syrian soldiers. And now I am supposed to only care when gays are killed and I am supposed to jump up and down?
I don’t care about gays who are Muslim loving anti-gun liberals. Stupid people who hate life die. Stupid people who hate life always die.
The haters of God love death.
...
The FBI doesn’t care since the system is impossible to fix unless of course to be “Muslim” should be illegal and to be “Gay” should also be illegal since gays are disgusting and are Muslim-loving anti guns.
Agents have their hands tied by politicians and the system will never make this politically incorrect change, so all I can say is “enjoy the death toll”.

John Stemberger Is 'Tired Of Seeing Special Interest Rainbow Flags' After Orlando Massacre
Submitted by Miranda Blue on Wednesday, 6/15/2016 1:27 pm
The Florida Family Policy Council [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/organizations/florida-family-policy-council ]’s John Stemberger [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/john-stemberger ] wrote in an email [ http://ffpc.convio.net/site/MessageViewer?em_id=3006.0&_ga=1.118184459.349377029.1464722307 ] to his group’s members today that in the wake of the massacre [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/gun-violence ] at a gay club in Orlando on Sunday, he wants to see greater “unity” among Floridians in the form of more American flags and fewer “special interest rainbow flags” in memory of the victims:
The Pulse nightclub is right next to a Dunkin Doughnuts, Wendy’s, Radio Shack and a 7-11 store where I often buy gas and get my children Slurpees. I ride my bike through this area of town often. This is in part why this tragedy has affected me so deeply. This is my community. These are our streets and neighborhoods. The people that were killed and injured are not just “gay.” They are human beings! They are my neighbors! They are fellow Americans! Honestly, I am really tired of seeing special interest rainbow flags and wish we could see more American flags, as we stand together in unity against our greatest mutual enemy, radical Islamic jihadists!
He responded to criticism of conservative Christian LGBT rights opponents in the wake of the attack, saying [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/religious-persecution-rhetoric ] that “Christians should be prepared to be attacked and persecuted if they do not bow down and pledge allegiance to the gay pride flag and all it supposedly represents.” LGBT rights advocates’ strategy, he said, is to “manipulate and bully Christians into submission to the new orthodoxy of the moral revolution.”
Christians should be prepared to be attacked and persecuted if they do not bow down and pledge allegiance to the gay pride flag and all it supposedly represents. In stunned disbelief, I was listening to CNN at 1:30am on Sunday night and I heard the leading gay-rights activist from Los Angeles being interviewed. She openly said you don’t need to find a terrorist cell to find this kind of hatred. All you need to do is look right here in America at fundamentalist Christians. The CNN anchor did NOTHING at all to challenge her or question her about her outrageous claim.
We need to be prepared for the stunning and false narrative of the Left which is that all major world religions, including but especially Christianity, breed hatred and create a hostile environment which "causes" the kind of violence we saw in Orlando. The goal of gay-rights activists is to try and get Christians to stop proclaiming God's design for marriage, gender and human sexuality. And they are not playing fair. The goal to simple. If you disagree in any way, no matter how gentle, loving or respectful they will call you a "hater" and a "bigot." They will scream at you publicly and test how committed you are to your beliefs. Their strategy is to manipulate and bully Christians into submission to the new orthodoxy of the moral revolution. Please know that as for me and "our house" at the FFPC, we will never be moved by this attempt at intimidation.
Stemberger, who is the most prominent anti-LGBT activist in Florida [ http://equalitymatters.org/blog/201408260001 ] and has launched an anti-gay alternative to the Boy Scouts [(linked in) http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=91811986 and preceding and following], said that he received a personal call from Sen. Marco Rubio after the massacre.

GOP lawmaker says Orlando shooting site wasn’t a gay club
House Rules Committee Chairman Pete Sessions, R-Texas, at the Capitol in Washington, Wednesday, May 7, 2014.

By Steve Benen
06/15/16 08:00 AM
House Rules Committee Chairman Pete Sessions (R-Texas) has an amazing habit of saying some pretty remarkable things. Yesterday, however, the far-right congressman nevertheless managed to surprise.
For those unfamiliar with Sessions’ background, in 2014, Sessions became strikingly confused about what a “witch hunt [ http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/there-witch-somewhere ]’ is. The year before, Sessions said he believes it’s “immoral [ http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/pete-sessions-extended-jobless-aid-immoral ]” to extend jobless aid to “long-term unemployments [sic].” Around the same time, the congressman said the House should stop worrying about governing and focus exclusively on “messaging [ http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/gop-leader-pushes-messaging-over-governing ].”
Last year, the Texas Republican said he holds President Obama “personally accountable [ http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/leading-house-republican-blames-obama-murders ]” for murders committed by undocumented immigrants, pointing to imaginary evidence [ http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/fact-checker/wp/2015/03/05/lawmaker-claims-illegal-immigrants-released-by-obama-are-committing-a-murder-a-day/ ]. Sessions then insisted [ http://thehill.com/blogs/floor-action/house/236821-gop-chairman-bungles-obamacare-math ] the Affordable Care Act costs Americans $5 million per person. (He was only off by $4,991,000.)
But despite this record, I didn’t see this one [ http://www.thedailybeast.com/cheats/2016/06/14/anti-gay-gop-congressman-pulse-wasn-t-a-gay-club.html ] coming.
Asked on Tuesday afternoon whether the massacre of 49 people at an Orlando gay nightclub changes his opposition to a pro-LGBT bill, House Rules Committee chairman Pete Sessions (R-TX) denied the venue had anything to do with the gay community whatsoever. “It was a young person’s nightclub, I’m told. And there were some [LGBT people] there, but it was mostly Latinos,” told reporters, according to National Journal.
Sessions has stood in firm opposition to the Maloney Amendment, an attachment that would bar federal contractors from discriminating against LGBT individuals.
Let’s set the record straight: the mass shooting took place at a nightclub called Pulse, which describes itself as “the hottest gay bar in Orlando.” The night of the massacre, it was hosting a Latino night, but that doesn’t change the fact that the venue caters to an LGBT audience.
For Sessions to pretend otherwise is bizarre. The Texan’s office told TPM [ http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/pete-sessions-pulse-gay-club-latinos ] the published quotes are correct, but “taken out of context without the background information.” Sessions’ spokesperson said, “What my boss meant to say was that there weren’t only gay individuals at the club but people from all walks of life were present.”
Perhaps, though that’s not what the House Republican said. What’s more, the broader legislative context relates to Sessions’ opposition to an amendment that would ban anti-LGBT discrimination among federal contractors. The point, in other words, is determining whether the Orlando murders might change Sessions’ perspective about preventing employment discrimination.
And it’s against this backdrop that the Texas lawmaker said he doesn’t necessarily consider the gay nightclub a gay nightclub.
Sessions’ perspective evidently isn’t unique among his GOP colleagues: House Republicans are moving forward with plans to block [ http://thehill.com/blogs/floor-action/house/283531-house-gop-leaders-block-lgbt-vote-after-orlando-shooting ] the anti-discrimination policy, regardless of the circumstances surrounding the deadliest mass shooting in American history.
There appears to be a push [ http://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/15/us/politics/trump-immigration-rally-lgbt.html ] in Republican circles this week to exploit the bloodshed in Orlando to woo LGBT voters. The pitch, in effect, is ugly but straightforward: a Muslim killed 49 people in a gay nightclub; Republicans are anti-Muslim; therefore LGBT voters should support Republicans.
If GOP officials seriously expect this strategy to work, they’re going to be disappointed.

Ted Cruz, Who Attended Event Calling For Gays To Be Put To Death, Delivers Characteristically Smug Response To Orlando Attack
Submitted by Brian Tashman on Monday, 6/13/2016 2:00 pm
Seemingly attempting to outdo Donald Trump in trying to come up with the most cynical and thoughtless responses to the massacre in Orlando, Ted Cruz [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/ted-cruz ] released a statement [ https://www.facebook.com/tedcruzpage/posts/10154196246167464 ] yesterday condemning liberals for what he claims is insufficient condemnation of anti-LGBT violence perpetrated by groups like ISIS and the Iranian government:
For all the Democrats who are loud champions of the gay and lesbian community whenever there is a culture battle waging, now is the opportunity to speak out against an ideology that calls for the murder of gays and lesbians. ISIS and the theocracy in Iran (supported with American taxpayer dollars) regularly murder homosexuals, throwing them from buildings and burying them under rocks. This is wrong, it is evil, and we must all stand against it. Every human being has a right to live according to his or her faith and conscience, and nobody has a right to murder someone who doesn’t share their faith or sexual orientation. If you’re a Democratic politician and you really want to stand for LGBT, show real courage and stand up against the vicious ideology that has targeted our fellow Americans for murder.
Aside from ignoring the ongoing efforts to battle [ http://www.haaretz.com/middle-east-news/1.724517 ] ISIS [ http://www.cnn.com/2016/06/11/world/isis-libya-sirte-offensive/ ] terrorists [ http://english.alarabiya.net/en/News/middle-east/2016/06/09/ISISI-loses-ground-on-fronts-in-Syria-Iraq.html ] and making false [ http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2016/mar/17/donald-trump/no-donald-trump-we-are-not-giving-iran-150-billion/ ] claims about U.S. tax money going to Iran, Cruz said that liberals are too cowardly to condemn those who call “for the murder of gays and lesbians,” absurdly suggesting that U.S. leaders haven’t already condemned terrorist atrocities and ISIS’s ideology.
We wonder why Cruz himself didn’t display such heroism when he spoke at a conference late last year [(linked in) http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=118394550 and following] where the main speaker, Kevin Swanson [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/kevin-swanson ], a longtime and notorious advocate of the government instituting the death penalty for gay people [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/cruz-huckabee-and-jindal-will-join-pastor-who-wants-gays-put-death ], said repeatedly on stage [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/if-kevin-swansons-son-got-gay-married-id-sit-cow-manure-and-id-spread-it-all-over-my-body ] that the Bible calls for gays and lesbians to be put to death [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/kevin-swanson-no-death-penalty-gays-until-they-have-time-repent ] and argued that America should introduce capital punishment against unrepentant homosexuals [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/gop-confab-ends-call-execute-gays-who-dont-repent-send-queen-elsa-back-hell ] once society is moved in that direction.
That conference was also attended by Cruz’s father and his then-rivals in the GOP presidential race Mike Huckabee and Bobby Jindal.
The summit, called the National Religious Liberties Conference [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/organizations/national-religious-liberties-conference ], even distributed literature calling for the death penalty for gay people and others [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/death-penalty-gays-literature-right-wing-conference ], mentioning stoning and throwing people off cliffs as possible forms of executions.
And yet Ted Cruz now has the gall to lecture liberals about the importance of showing “real courage" in the face of those who want to put gays to death.
Update: Cruz also once compared LGBT rights advocates to jihadists [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/ted-cruz-gay-community-waging-jihad-against-religious-freedom ]:

Donald Trump, Who Opposes LGBT Rights, Claims Mantle Of LGBT Community
Submitted by Brian Tashman on Tuesday, 6/14/2016 2:40 pm
Days after telling a meeting of anti-LGBT activists that he is with them “100 percent [ http://www.huffingtonpost.com/michelangelo-signorile/trump-dangerous-to-lgbt-equality_b_10396552.html ],” Donald Trump [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/donald-trump ] sent a tweet today thanking the LGBT community for what he apparently thinks is its uniform support for his presidential candidacy.
Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump
Thank you to the LGBT community! I will fight for you while Hillary brings in more people that will threaten your freedoms and beliefs.
12:31 PM - 14 Jun 2016
[ https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/742771576039460864 (with comments)]
Trump is trying to use the massacre in Orlando to win support for his cause of attacking all Muslim-Americans [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/anti-muslim ], including LGBT Muslims.
We know that Trump is pretending to be a friend to LGBT people in order to justify his discriminatory proposals, such as his proposed ban on the world’s 1.6 billion Muslims from stepping foot in the U.S., because his own words and actions make clear that he is no ally of the LGBT community [ http://new.www.huffingtonpost.com/brian-tashman/donald-trump-cozies-up-to_b_10377170.html ].
He has sharply criticized the Supreme Court’s marriage equality ruling [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/donald-trump-trust-me-overturn-shocking-gay-marriage-decision ] and pledged to appoint judges “as close to Scalia as you could find [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/trump-says-his-scotus-nominees-would-be-close-scalia-you-could-find ],” referring to the late justice known for his broadsides against gay people and the “homosexual agenda [ http://www.slate.com/blogs/outward/2016/02/16/antonin_scalia_s_anti_gay_legacy.html ].”
Not only would Trump radically reshape the judiciary, where many key LGBT issues are decided, but he has also vowed to sign [ http://www.washingtonblade.com/2015/12/23/trump-gives-conditional-support-for-religious-freedom-bill/ ] anti-LGBT activists’ top legislative priority, the misnamed First Amendment Defense Act, which would give legal approval to discrimination against LGBT people, and gave his blessing [ http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/donald-trump-value-voters_us_5605745de4b0dd85030747a5 ] to Kentucky clerk Kim Davis’ attempt to deny marriage licenses to same-sex couples.
And that’s not to mention the fact that his attacks on women, Latinos and immigrants are also attacks on many LGBT people.
...
Frank Amedia, a pastor who serves [ http://time.com/4342885/donald-trump-immigration-hispanic-evangelicals/ ] as Trump’s “liaison for Christian policy,” describes HIV/AIDS [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/trump-christian-policy-adviser-apostle-who-stopped-tsunami-says-aids-result-unnatural-sex ] as “a disease that comes because of unnatural sex.” Trump’s frequent campaign surrogate Robert Jeffress, a Southern Baptist preacher, has blasted gays for living a “filthy,” “miserable” and “perverse” “lifestyle” that he says encourages child abuse and the coming of the Antichrist [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/trumps-team-bigoted-unhinged-conspiracy-theorists-benefiting-donald-trumps-campaign ].
One of Trump’s top advisers, Ben Carson, made waves during his unsuccessful presidential bid with his [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/ben-carson-conspiracy-books-prove-gay-rights-are-communist-plot-against-america ] bizarre [ http://thinkprogress.org/justice/2015/03/04/3629469/ben-carson-prison-sex/ ], ludicrous [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/ben-carson-explains-how-gay-marriage-marxist-plot-impose-new-world-order ] and [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/ben-carson-gay-rights-pro-choice-activists-use-hate-speech-are-enemies-america ] offensive [ http://www.slate.com/blogs/weigel/2013/03/28/_be_they_gays_be_they_nambla_be_they_people_who_believe_in_beastiality.html ] diatribes [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/ben-carson-lgbt-affirming-pastors-put-their-finger-eye-god ] against gay rights.
Trump has also partnered with [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/trumps-team-bigoted-unhinged-conspiracy-theorists-benefiting-donald-trumps-campaign ] Harlem’s notorious 'stone homos [ ]' pastor James David Manning [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/james-david-manning ] and far-right radio show host Alex Jones [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/alex-jones ], who thinks the LGBT rights movement is a “suicide cult” bent on the destruction of humanity [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/alex-jones-endgame-lgbt-movement-asexual-humanoid-and-human-extermination ].
Trump is not interested in promoting LGBT rights. He is simply opportunistically trying to use a community hit by tragedy as cover for his own bigotry.

Donald Trump Once Again Suggests Obama Is A Terrorist Sympathizer
Submitted by Brian Tashman on Monday, 6/13/2016 10:55 am
Fresh from congratulating himself [ https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/742034549232766976 ] “for being right on radical Islamic terrorism,” Donald Trump [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/donald-trump ] made the rounds on the morning shows today [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/election-2016 ], where he hinted that President Obama may actually be rooting for the terrorists.
Inae Oh of Mother Jones reports [ http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2016/06/donald-trump-orlanda-birther-like-conspiracy-theory ]:
Referring to Obama and the threat of terrorism, Trump said during a call-in with Fox & Friends [ http://www.politico.com/story/2016/06/islamic-state-orlando-shooter-omar-mateen-224249 ], "He doesn't get it or he gets it better than anybody understand. It's one or the other." Gets it better than anybody understands? In other words, Obama has a secret—and nefarious—agenda.
"We're led by a man that either is not tough, not smart, or he's got something else in mind," Trump continued. "And the something else in mind, you know, people can't believe it. People cannot—they cannot believe that President Obama is acting the ways he acts and can't even mention the words radical Islamic terrorism. There's something going on. It's inconceivable."
When asked about his comments later on Good Morning America, Trump reiterated the same message, insinuating the president is willfully ignoring the problem.
"There are a lot of people that think maybe he doesn't want to get it," he told Savannah Guthrie. " A lot of people think maybe he doesn't want to know about it. I happen to think he just doesn't know what he's doing."
As we’ve noted in the past, Trump has consistently suggested that President Obama is not only a secret Muslim but also a supporter of terrorist groups [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/58-donald-trump-conspiracy-theories-and-counting-definitive-trump-conspiracy-guide#obama ].
Trump has falsely claimed that Obama is actively [ https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/503988326471585792 ] aiding [ https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/512341480728698880 ] ISIS [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/trump-praises-putin-interview-far-right-conspiracy-theorist ] and said that when it comes to Obama’s approach to terrorism, “maybe he doesn’t want to get rid of the problem [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/donald-trump-maybe-obama-doesnt-want-stop-terrorism ].”
At one campaign rally, Trump said that the president is ignoring the threat of terrorism for surreptitious reasons [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/trump-theres-something-we-dont-know-about-obama ]: “We can’t close our eyes. I don’t know what’s wrong with Obama, he wants to close his eyes and pretend it’s not happening. Why is he so emphatic on not solving the problem? There’s something we don’t know about.

Rick Wiles: Orlando Massacre Was God's Judgment On America
Submitted by Brian Tashman on Wednesday, 6/15/2016 11:45 am
On Monday [ http://cfvod.kaltura.com/pd/p/1949551/sp/194955100/serveFlavor/entryId/1_8lel2518/v/11/flavorId/1_zv84qajh/name/a.mp3 ], End Times [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/end-times ] broadcaster Rick Wiles [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/rick-wiles , http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/organizations/trunews ] said that the terrorist attack at the gay nightclub Pulse in Orlando represented the judgment of God on America.
He said that more terrorist attacks are coming to the U.S. because America’s security apparatus has been “infiltrated” by terrorists and “we have a Muslim jihadist in the White House, Barack Hussein Obama, a jihadist.”
“God has been crying out to this nation: Either voluntarily humble yourselves to your knees and call upon me to protect your or continue in your rebellion and be brought to your knees by your enemies,” he said. “But either way, America, you’re going to your knees. I’ve said for years, America, if you continue to reject the mercy of the cross, you will live by the tyranny of the sword, and that’s what’s happening right now.”
Wiles, who once said that “Ebola could solve America’s problem” with homosexuality [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/rick-wiles-ebola-could-solve-americas-problems-atheism-and-homosexuality ], added that he has “no ill will against any gay or lesbian.”

North Carolina Lt. Governor: LGBT Rights Proof We've Turned Our Back On God

In fact, the GOP official said, “women and children” were the ones “being discriminated against” under LGBT rights ordinances like the one passed by the city of Charlotte, which was voided by the new state law.
He said that such measures were approved because “we have a lack of moral compass in our country right now, we’ve taken our eyes off God in America, we have turned our back on God, we have forgotten God in a lot of ways, so the moral compass is broken here.”
Forest went on to say that anti-LGBT laws like North Carolina’s only “discriminate against behavior, not against people,” comparing them to traffic laws: “If I want to go out and drive 95 miles an hour down the interstate in North Carolina because I feel like doing that, I don’t have the right to do that. It doesn’t mean the law is discriminating against me, it’s discriminating against my behavior of wanting to drive 95.”
Naturally, Forest went on to blame the controversy over the law on the media.

John Haller: LGBT Acceptance A Sign Of 'End Times'
Submitted by Nabi Dressler on Monday, 6/13/2016 2:59 pm
On Jan Markell [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/jan-markell ]’s radio show [ http://www.oneplace.com/ministries/understanding-the-times/player/the-days-of-noah-and-lot-re-visited-536678.html ] Saturday, John Haller [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/john-haller ] of Ohio’s Fellowship Bible Chapel [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/organizations/fellowship ] said that the LGBT “agenda” is a sign of the End Times on par with “actual wars.”
“The Scripture says that eventually people will be given over to a reprobate mind and they will essentially lose the ability to reason,” Haller said. “Another way of saying it a little less politically correct would be, they lose the ability to reason and they think like morons. And I think that we are exactly at that time. I think it will get worse. We are seeing that play out right in front of our eyes.”
“Both the days of Noah and the days of Lot existed in the historical context. What was going on then was wickedness and violence filled the earth in the days of Noah, and homosexuality was running rampant in Sodom and Gomorrah in the days of Lot. This is exactly what we’re seeing,” he added.
Haller said that France has become a warzone, saying, “This is happening all over the world, let alone the fact that actual wars are taking place, but then we have the, what I would call the LGBTQIANDIA+ agenda. They keep adding letters to that.”
Citing the Bible, Haller said that the recent mainstream support of LGBT people indicates the Second Coming of Jesus is near.
“Over Jesus’ life, up until the last week when he rode into Jerusalem, of all the Messianic prophecies — rough estimate — 40 percent of those prophecies about his first coming were fulfilled in roughly 33 years," Haller said. “Sixty percent of them were fulfilled in the last week. And so what you saw was this exponential increase in the acceleration of these prophecies coming to pass. That’s exactly what’s going to happen in the End Times, and I talk every week about the convergence of all these different lines of Bible prophecy, from Israel to morality to one-world government, one-world religion.
“All of these things were in play, and they all converge and finish at the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, but as we get closer to that time, the lines converge and it’s almost like we’re in the vortex, for lack of a better example, the vortex of a tornado, where it’s very turbulent.”

Rick Wiles: 'Round Up The Muslims And Ship Them Out Of This Country'
Submitted by Brian Tashman on Wednesday, 6/15/2016 2:00 pm
On his “Trunews” radio program on Monday [ http://cfvod.kaltura.com/pd/p/1949551/sp/194955100/serveFlavor/entryId/1_8lel2518/v/11/flavorId/1_zv84qajh/name/a.mp3 ], after declaring that the Orlando massacre represented God’s judgment on America [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/rick-wiles-orlando-massacre-was-gods-judgment-america (above)], Rick Wiles said that the U.S. government should “outlaw Islam” and “confiscate Muslims [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/anti-muslim ].”
“The left is calling for gun control What we need is Muslim control. We don’t need to confiscate guns, we need to confiscate Muslims. You’re not going to solve this problem until you round up the Muslims and ship them out of this country. End of discussion. Outlaw Islam. Make it an illegal religion. Don’t tell me it can’t be done. Pass a constitutional amendment that says we’re a Christian nation and Islam is illegal. Done. Get rid of it. Stamp it out before it destroys civilization.”
“Anyone who is a practicing Muslim is mentally ill,” he added, before claiming that the U.S. government is bringing terrorists into the country. “We’re all going to die, gay and straight, left and right, Republican and Democrat, we’re all going to die if we don’t get this stopped really soon.”
[audio ( https://soundcloud.com/rightwingwatch/wiles-ban-islam-round-up-and-deport-all-muslims ) embedded]
Wiles also hailed Donald Trump for his recent suggestion that President Obama may be a terrorist sympathizer [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/donald-trump-once-again-suggests-obama-terrorist-sympathizer (above)].
“I took that as Donald Trump was insinuating that the American people must now consider the possibility that Obama has a hidden, nefarious plan underway which is covering for all of these Muslims coming into the country,” he said. “I think he got very close to it today…. When you said that this morning, Mr. Trump, you were extremely close to nailing it, what this really is, that we have an Islamic jihadist in the White House.”
He also claimed that the Obama administration “hired Omar Mateen,” the Orlando shooter, to work for a security company that contracts with the government. (Mateen secured the job in 2007, two years before Obama took office).
[audio ( https://soundcloud.com/rightwingwatch/wiles-trump-obama-muslim ) embedded]
Wiles concluded: “If there’s a Muslim living in your town, there’s a high probability you have a jihadist cell in your town.”

Seattle SWAT arrest Greenwood man for allegedly threatening mosque
Seattle police took a Greenwood man into custody after he allegedly made online threats to a local mosque.
(KIRO 7)
By Dyer Oxley
June 14, 2016 @ 6:17 pm
Seattle police called in a SWAT team and negotiators to a North Seattle neighborhood Tuesday afternoon after receiving information about threats made to a local mosque.
The incident happened in the wake of other threats made to a mosque in Redmond [ http://mynorthwest.com/316095/redmond-mosque-receives-direct-threat-after-orlando-massacre/ ].
The suspect, a 37-year-old man, has been taken into custody. Police were notified by the man’s out-of-state friend about threats he was reportedly making online.
“We received information about Internet threats, and working with our partners, we were able to respond,” Captain Sean O’Donell said [ https://www.periscope.tv/HenryKIRO7/1lDGLeZBLaLJm ].
“We take this very seriously,” he said. “We are very aware of the situation in Orlando and we are taking steps to ensure the safety of the individuals at the mosque … we received information and acted on it immediately out of an abundance of caution.”
The man allegedly posted threats to the Seattle mosque over the Internet. In a separate online post he also allegedly claimed to have purchased an assault rifle and extra ammunition.
Police made contact with the man at his Greenwood apartment at around 3:30 p.m. He came out on his own volition, police said.
Police reportedly had contact with the same man in the past over other harassing comments he made to another local mosque. Seattle police are working with the FBI to further investigate the matter. The man is currently being investigated for malicious harassment, according to Seattle police. It is expected that he will be booked into King County Jail.

Alex Jones: Hillary Clinton A 'Demon-Antichrist' Figure
Submitted by Brian Tashman on Tuesday, 6/14/2016 5:05 pm
Last week, Alex Jones [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/alex-jones , http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/organizations/infowars ] attacked [ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQ5d-CZSYSU (next below; with comments)]
Hillary Clinton [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/hillary-clinton ] for looking like “Emperor Palpatine in drag,” impersonating her by saying, “Go forth my children, the day of doom is at hand, go out into the world and burn it with the great cleansing of Hillary and the great goddess. Cleanse the earth with blood, our sacred goddess of death, Kali.”
“This is like something out of a science fiction/horror film where they’re electing a cult, demon, Antichrist, Linda Blair,” he added.

Jim Bakker's Guest Warns That Hillary Clinton Has The 'Spirit Of Antichrist'
Submitted by Brian Tashman on Monday, 6/13/2016 12:20 pm
Last week, televangelist Jim Bakker [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/jim-bakker ] hosted [ https://jimbakkershow.com/video/shocking-prophecies-election-day-1/ ] Don and Mary Colbert of “Divine Health” and Mark Taylor, a Florida man who claims that God told him that Donald Trump will be the next president, to discuss the upcoming election [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/election-2016 ].
Unsurprisingly, they were all enthralled with Taylor’s “message from God,” and were quite confident that the prophecy will materialize and God will put Trump in the White House.
Don Colbert, for his part, urged viewers to stand with Trump or face “the spirit of Antichrist” found in Hillary Clinton [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/hillary-clinton ]:
When I saw this prophecy, when the spirit of God hit me like someone slapped me in the face, it awakened me and I said, ‘Wait, whose side am I going to be on?’ Remember Moses? Remember the Korah rebellion? Remember the people that sided with Korah, how the earth opened up and swallowed them?
Well, we as Christians have got to make the right choice because if we don’t, this nation is in decline and this nation will be in judgment and our children and our grandchildren will not have the great America that we want for them.
That spirit of Antichrist is majorly on one of these candidates, and that’s Hillary Clinton, and Jesus even said there will be many Antichrists in the world; well, that spirit of Antichrist is on our president right now. So, as Christians, we have got to turn out and vote. If we don’t turn out and vote, we are electing Hillary Clinton.

D'Souza Calls New Movie A 'Weapon' He'll Drop Like 'A Grenade' Into Democratic Convention
Submitted by Peter Montgomery on Wednesday, 6/15/2016 2:59 pm
Dinesh D’Souza [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/dinesh-dsouza ], who has seemingly abandoned his pretense of being a scholar to become an overt right-wing propagandist [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/dinesh-d-souza-s-america-book-not-better-movie ], has been pushing his latest movie, “Hillary’s America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party,” for months. He bragged back in March that it is so “emotionally powerful” that it will cause Democrats to need counseling [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/dinesh-dsouza-says-his-new-movie-so-emotionally-powerful-itll-cause-democrats-need-counselin ].
At last week’s Road to Majority conference [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/organizations/faith-and-freedom-coalition ], Religious Right activists were subjected to the trailer [ http://www.dineshdsouza.com/news/hillarys-america-trailer/ ] for “Hillary’s America” three times on Friday. D’Souza described the movie as “a retelling of the whole story of progressivism and the Democratic Party.” In it, he purports to expose the “soul of the Democratic Party.” The trailer features dramatic re-enactments of southern Democrats’ support for slavery, the KKK and Jim Crow.
Sound familiar? This is territory trod a full decade ago by D’Souza’s fellow conservative propagandist David Barton [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/exposing-david-bartons-bunk , http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/david-barton ]. At the time, PFAW called Barton’s DVD “Setting the Record Straight: American History in Black and White [ http://www.pfaw.org/media-center/publications/david-barton-propaganda-masquerading-history ],” “staggeringly misleading” and “one-sided history.” The RNC had been bankrolling Barton’s outreach to African American and Hispanic churches. In Barton’s version of the Democrats-as-the-source-of-all-evil tale, history conveniently ended with passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. That allowed him to ignore the past half century, Goldwater’s opposition to civil rights legislation, the GOP’s infamous “southern strategy,” the GOP’s embrace of the segregationist “Dixiecrats,” and the modern Right Wing’s record of inflaming white racial resentment and using racial dog-whistles for political gain — as if it were a complete mystery why African Americans would ever vote for a Democratic candidate.
D’Souza seems to update Barton by portraying Democratic support for social safety net programs as a means of moving “from slavery to enslavement.” After all, what progressivism really means is “social engineering and social control.”
Of course, thanks to the success of his earlier “documentaries,” D’Souza’s film will have Hollywood-level production values, complete with sinister, pounding music to drive the point home. According to a memorable description by Michelle Goldberg [ http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/politics/2016/06/the_awkward_spectacle_of_donald_trump_at_the_road_to_majority_conference.html ], the movie’s “farcical bombast” is “aimed at those who find Michael Bay films too restrained and artful.”
Bombast is in fact D’Souza’s aim. “A movie is a weapon,” he declared at a Friday evening session at Road to Majority. “There’s a much bigger battle. There’s a political battle, but underneath that there’s a cultural battle, and…underneath that is a moral and spiritual battle.” Democrats have controlled the levers of culture, he said, and there’s a “desperate need” for conservatives to “up the ante on all fronts.” He said his new movie “blows the lid” off the “gangsterism” of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, who he said is “at the pinnacle of this whole crime syndicate.”
“What are these Democrats hiding?” he asks in the trailer. “What if the goal of the Democratic Party is to steal the most valuable thing the world has ever produced? What if their plan is to steal America?”
“Hillary’s America” is scheduled to open on July 22, between the two parties’ political conventions. The idea, he said, is to “drop this grenade in the middle of the Democratic convention.”
Of course this isn’t the first time D’Souza has tried to sway the outcome of an election. His 2012 movie, “2016: Obama’s America [ http://mediamatters.org/blog/2012/08/27/fear-and-loathing-in-2016-obamas-america/189581 ],” made a lot of money, but failed to prevent Obama’s re-election. D’Souza has been fuming for years [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/d-souza-obama-waging-war-conservatives-instead-islamic-radicals ] that if only more voters had seen the movie, the outcome would have been different, a claim he made again on Friday night. It was part of his pitch for people to take their friends and fellow churchgoers to see his new movie on its opening weekend; he said a good opening would take it from 1500 to 2000 theaters.
“Hillary’s America” is the second of D’Souza’s films aimed at keeping Clinton out of the White House. That was also the goal of 2014’s “America: Imagine the World Without Her [ http://prospect.org/article/how-did-racist-right-wing-fantasy-presented-truth-come-top-new-york-times-bestseller-list ],” which portrayed Obama and Clinton working together to carry out Saul Alinsky’s plan to lead America down the path to national suicide and socialist tyranny. The two movies also appear to have something else in common: D’Souza complaining that he was a victim of political persecution in his conviction for violating campaign finance laws (to which he pled guilty [ http://www.politico.com/story/2014/05/dinesh-dsouza-pleads-guilty-illegal-campaign-contribution-106882 ]).
Like many Road to Victory speakers, D’Souza closed by making a pitch for people to elect Donald Trump [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/people/donald-trump ] in spite of his obvious shortcomings. Like the Super Bowl, he said, elections come down to two competing teams, and the winner gets to do what it wants with America.
It is a “true and grim fact of politics,” he said, that you have to fight alongside people who don’t agree with you on all things. We are, he said in a “one of these bizarre moments in American politics,” but that is where we are and we have to choose between the actual choices before us [ http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/election-2016 , http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/topics/2016-candidates ]:
And so it seems to me that here we are, and the question before us is, do we want this Obama-Hillary machine, which has been grinding us down, not just picking our wallets but in a sense stealing— my book is “Stealing America,” and by stealing America I don’t just mean our money. I mean stealing our freedom. I mean stealing our American dream. I mean stealing our aspirations, stealing our ability to be who we are and pray as we wish and speak as we believe and think as we will.
