      I’m guessing that pastor was outraged by anyone not grieving hard enough after Kirk was murdered. Hypocrisy and religious conservatism go hand in hand.

      There is nothing Trump or his sycophants can say or do that would turn away the support of the Red Hat Cult. They are dug in too deep. Societal norms do not get in the way of their obsession.

      Yet another „religious“, „Pastor“, „Christian“, „Patriotic“, „“American“, Political Prostitute! MAGA – Make America (1930’s) Germany Again! This is literally where America is going! And, the religious leaders are supporting the 34 times convicted, fraudster, sexual assaulter, rapist, pedophile, 168 school children killer, war criminal, just like the religious leaders in Germany worshipped Hitler!

      Will Talarico win in Texas? I have no idea, but I am crossing my fingers.

      However, he has them freaking the fuck out.
      Like they are me when I see a spider in my car, freaking out.

      “Jesus loves. Christian Nationalism kills. You may pray for my death, Pastor, but I still love you. I love you more than you could ever hate me.”

      Class act and clever turnabout. Even if we give the other guy the benefit of the doubt that he only meant Talarico’s „heart“ to die and him be reborn spiritually… he got outplayed. Looks like a hateful chump now and Talarico comes off as both victim AND boss.

      This is what Talarico said:

      >“Jesus loves. Christian Nationalism kills,“ Talarico said in a statement Tuesday. „You may pray for my death, Pastor, but I still love you. I love you more than you could ever hate me.”

      r/moscowidaho can tell u all about this ‘pastor’, his plans for this country and how he and his followers are trying to take over and ruin a great small college town.

      Interesting. One can stochastically call for the death of someone as long as it’s under the context of religion. I’m pretty sure anyone does that here they will get banned. XD

      I would wager a lot of the right has never read the whole Bible and if Jesus came to America now they would either deport him or shoot him.

      >Talarico has been a longtime critic of some parts of the GOP’s reliance on Christian nationalism. He has also been criticized for his stance on accepting the transgender community, as well as some of his interpretations of the Bible.

      Fucking Newsweek actually felt the need to both-sides this one.

      They don’t call ‚em ‚christian‘ taliban for no reason. These radical right fundamentalist extremist scum are cut from the same cloth as their Islamic counterparts.

      This was Talarico’s response:

      X – [James Talarico | Mar 24, 2026](https://x.com/jamestalarico/status/2036647988182036730)

      “Jesus loves. Christian Nationalism kills.

      You may pray for my death, Pastor, but I still love you.

      I love you more than you could ever hate me.”

      The first line calls back to a sermon Talarico delivered two years ago:

      YouTube – [James Talarico Delivers Sermon Against Christian Nationalism](https://youtu.be/Blph_2RSBno) (18:47)

      “Jesus liberates. Christian nationalism controls.

      Jesus saves. Christian nationalism kills.

      Jesus started a universal movement based on mutual love. Christian nationalism is a sectarian movement based on mutual hate.”

      „Pastor prays for his death“ these guys are good at being walking contradictions

    22. FlemethWild on

      Wonder if this will get removed for being “off topic” like the other ones….

      I’ve been working on a podcast about Autocratic Despair and we’ve decided to have a weekly segment called “Talarico Talk” because /I’ve started thinking of a future with him as president as an antidote to the cynicism that has nearly devoured this country as we slide further & further toward entrenched Authoritarianism. It also provides a good jumping off point to discuss Christian Nationalism.

      I worry Talarico will be assassinated & they will say it was payback for Charlie Kirk. Almost feels as thought it is fait accompli.

    25. Adventurous_Pay_5827 on

      Oh, so the pastor was only praying for his metaphorical death and rebirth. That makes it all right then. 🙄

    26. jkvincent on

      It not as if the Christian right needed any more exposing as simply an engine for radicalizing naive people into supporting violence and corruption. But if anyone anywhere had any doubt left, then this reaction to Talarico should dispell it forever.

    29. jdbway on

      He’s doing so good. He makes Christianity look good in the eyes non-believers compared to how it’s been used by the Republican party

    32. mr-mojo-risin21 on

      They really truly have to take care of this guy. I am so scared for him. It’s not often that a person inspires this much hope on one side, and so much contempt from the other side. Hope his security is doing their job
