‘Feels like a demonic ritual’ — KFC’s latest commercial will SHOCK you



In 1930, a man named Harland Sanders began selling fried chicken from a roadside restaurant in Corbin, Kentucky. That restaurant eventually became the global franchise Kentucky Fried Chicken, more commonly known as KFC. It’s been adored for generations.

However, now droves of people are swearing off the restaurant for life — and not because of the MAHA movement.

The latest KFC commercial — a blend of creepy cultish behavior and a not-so-subtle insinuation of cannibalism — likely has Sanders rolling over in his grave.

Pat Gray of “Pat Gray Unleashed” plays the full commercial.

Here’s a brief summary of what transpires in the two-minute ad: A young man walks alone in a misty forest. He suddenly encounters a chicken staring at him from behind a tree. Then, out of the blue, a puffy vest descends from the sky onto a woman. Then, a bunch of people all wearing similar clothing come out of hiding and surround the man and woman, who then levitate to face one another. The man’s clothes are suddenly replaced so that he matches the group.

Then, a giant golden egg appears and the cult-like group starts carrying it somewhere, while doing these strange, gyrating movements. The group arrives with the egg at a giant lake of gravy. The woman then carries the man into the lake of gravy and submerges him. When she pulls him back up, he’s a giant chicken tender. She holds him above her head, and the group stomps and cheers in preparation for their next meal.

Co-host Keith Malinak says it “feels like a demonic ritual.”

On top of that, there seems to be an insinuation that the meat the restaurant uses “is human.”

“You dipped a human being in gravy, and he became a piece of fried chicken. ... Wow is that weird,” says Pat in complete disbelief. “That was maybe the king of weird.”

“That was insane; that was evil; that was demonic,” says Keith. “They’re not even hiding anymore.”

Most Kansas lawmakers side against the devil, pass resolution denouncing satanists' 'Black Mass'



The Kansas state House voted 101-15 on Thursday in support of a resolution denouncing the satanic worship ritual scheduled to take place outside the state Capitol on March 28.

This denunciation, although an important signal to Kansans and the nation, is not law and does not amount to a cancellation of the event. In fact, the satanists still intend to flock to the state grounds and to flout Democrat Gov. Laura Kelly's directive to remain outside the Capitol building.

However, the Satanic Grotto's planned desecration of the Eucharist is now in doubt, given recent indications that the satanists may not actually be in possession of a consecrated host as well as new guidelines adopted for use of the Capitol grounds by the Kansas Legislative Coordinating Council, which would make the unlawful possession of a consecrated host grounds for removal.

It appears, therefore, that the satanists' planned "Black Mass" might end up being nothing more than insubstantial anti-Catholic theater exemplifying their bigotry and uniting lawmakers from both parties, Christians from various denominations, and even some nonbelievers in affirming the state's "identity as one nation under God."

Former Rep. Tim Huelskamp (R-Kan.), who has been involved in the efforts to prevent a real Black Mass from taking place at the state Capitol, told Blaze News that the satanists' efforts to provoke Catholics and draw attention to themselves may serve as "spiritual kick in the pants to Christians across Kansas," prompting them to "say, 'Hey, wait a minute — this our state too.'"

Lawsuit

The Satanic Grotto, a leftist anti-Christian hate group that appears to be little more than an unpolished knockoff of the Massachusetts-based Satanic Temple, received a permit to hold a "Black Mass" at the Kansas Capitol building in Topeka on March 28.

The group's event listing states that the group will "dedicate the grounds and our legislature to the glory of Satan" and notes further that members "will be performing rites to the black mass and indulging in sacrilegious blaspheme [sic]."

Michael Stewart, the leader of the anti-Christian hate group, told KSNT-TV that he would lead the "Black Mass," noting that he would "heavily lean into the four blasphemies, kind of representing an alternate to the stations of the cross."

The satanists are expected to break crucifixes, tear up at least one Bible, and mock Catholics' central sacrament — intended actions Stewart confirmed in a Wednesday op-ed. A flyer for the event further indicates that as part of their "theuraputic [sic] blesphemy [sic]," the satanists will denounce Christ, desecrate the Eucharist, and corrupt "the Blood."

'God takes Satan to court. Satan wins.'

There has been intense backlash, particularly from Catholic groups in the state who were led to believe by self-identified members of the Grotto that the group had stolen a consecrated host and sought to "use its desecration to manifest the link between Satan and the capital [sic] building."

In addition to social media posts, Chuck Weber, the executive director of the Kansas Catholic Conference — a group that leads public policy advocacy efforts on behalf of the Catholic Bishops of Kansas — stated in a sworn statement that Stewart told him in a March 8 phone call that he was in possession of one or more consecrated hosts.

In addition to encouraging prayer, inviting the faithful to attended a Eucharistic Holy Hour at a church near the statehouse on March 28, and calling for state officials to cancel the event, the Catholic Archdiocese of Kansas City  filed a lawsuit demanding the return of consecrated hosts the satanists suggested they had stolen.

It is the conviction of the Catholic Church that "at the heart of the Eucharistic celebration are the bread and wine that, by the words of Christ and the invocation of the Holy Spirit, become Christ's Body and Blood." The archdiocese noted that given the highest importance of the consecrated host and wine to Catholics, any attempt to "desecrate or attempt to destroy or otherwise harm these items is a grave concern to Archbishop [Joseph] Naumann, the Catholic Church, and countless of the Catholic faithful."

Archbishop Naumann demanded resolution through a civil jury trial.

The Leavenworth County District Court dismissed the lawsuit Thursday, prompting the Grotto to state on Facebook, "God takes Satan to court. Satan wins."

Stewart told WIBW-TV that the supposed hosts he has in his possession were not obtained by criminal means.

"We didn't do it," Stewart said, referring to the allegation that he or his compatriots stole consecrated hosts.

Stewart suggested to the Oklahoma Voice that his anti-Christian hate group has its own consecration rituals and will mockingly "consecrate" some unleavened wafers purchased online.

"I find it very entertaining that [Archbishop Naumann] is convinced that I have Jesus trapped in a cracker and he would take it to court," said Stewart.

The Satanic Grotto similarly did not respond to a request for comment from Blaze News. The anti-Christian hate group did, however previously provide this response: "The Satanic Grotto says get f**ked blaze news."

Voting against the devil

Gov. Kelly appeared reluctant early on to condemn the planned event or acknowledge the Grotto as bigots; however, she indicated on March 12 that in order to "keep the statehouse open and accessible to the public while ensuring all necessary health and safety regulations are enforced," the group's anti-Christian demonstration would have to take place outside.

The satanists maintain that they will enter the state Capitol building to perform their dark ritual, even if that means they'll end up in handcuffs.

The governor's office did not respond to a request for comment.

Huelskamp told Blaze News that like Gov. Kelly's "really weak" response to the "Black Mass," the response from the Kansas legislature was also "pretty timid."

"The general philosophy was, 'Well, if we ignore evil, it will go away,'" said Huelskamp. "But what I've seen in the last couple days — I've been in touch with a lot of legislators who are really stepping up, saying, 'You know what? We need to take a stand on this.' And they have."

Kansas House Resolution 6016 states that the "planned satanic worship ritual is an explicit act of anti-Catholic bigotry and an affront to all Christians. It blasphemes our shared values of faith, decency, and respect that strengthen our communities."

Those who voted for the resolution affirmed that they denounced "the planned satanic worship ritual scheduled to take place on the grounds of the people's house, the Kansas state Capitol grounds, on March 28, 2025, as a despicable, blasphemous, and offensive sacrilege to not only Catholics but all people of goodwill, and it runs contrary to the spiritual heritage of this state and nation."

"We call upon all Kansans to promote unity, mutual respect, and the values that uphold our identity as one nation under God," added the resolution.

The resolution passed in a bipartisan 101-15 vote.

While some Democrats voted for the resolution, all 15 state legislators who voted against denouncing the satanic ritual were Democrats, namely Reps. Wanda Paige, John Carmichael, Ford Carr, Jo Ella Hoye, Heather Meyer, Silas Miller, Brooklynne Mosley, Melissa Oropeza, Dan Osman, Jarrod Ousley, Susan Ruiz, Alexis Simmons, Lindsay Vaughn, Valdenia Winn, and Rui Xu.

The Kansas Catholic Conference stated, "We are shocked and appalled that 15 Democrats voted NO," adding, "Anti-Catholic bigotry is alive and well in Kansas."

'It's the same arguments that the pro-KKK people had in the 1920s.'

Kansas state Rep. Sean Tarwater, a practicing Catholic, said, "What eats at me the most is that I fear for the souls of those that are going to be involved with this Black Mass, and especially for those that are supporting the Black Mass in this room and on that committee," reported the Kansas Reflector.

Huelskamp told Blaze News that "we're still looking for a little more from the legislature," underscoring that the matter at hand is plainly a battle between good and evil.

Huelskamp, a Catholic with four adopted black children, noted that Kansas has a really proud history of repelling bigots, highlighting the battle that made it the first state in the union to ban the Ku Klux Klan.

"In the 1920s — 100 years ago — the KKK tried to make a big entrance into Kansas. There was a significant political battle," said the former congressman. "They refused to recognize the KKK and they kicked them out of the state."

"All of the arguments of the left on this, on the satanists, it's the same arguments that the pro-KKK people had in the 1920s. 'Hey, it's free speech.' 'Let them come in, free to organize.' Eventually, the State of Kansas — I think the '24 election — said, 'No. We will not let the KKK in the state,'" continued Huelskamp. "I mean, at that time, there were rallies of 50,000 Kansans that were KKK supporters demanding recognition by the state."

"I'm still upset the [Kansas] secretary of state, Scott Schwab, recognized the satanists when he gave them nonprofit status," said Huelskamp. "We might like to go back and re-examine whether any group, you know, any hate group just receives automatic recognition by the State of Kansas. So 100 years ago, we said the KKK didn't qualify. So how did the satanists qualify? It's obviously a hate group in my books."

Catholics and Christians from other denominations plan to protest the "Black Mass."

TFP Student Action has, for instance, invited counterprotesters to attend a rosary rally of reparation at the south side of the Kansas state Capitol building at 10:15 a.m. on March 28.

'May or may not be possessed': Inside the thriving online market for 'haunted' dolls



Dolls are like clowns — they can go from cute to creepy real quick. And for the creepiest of them all, fame and fortune could await.

For every Annabelle or Chucky, however, there are thousands of dolls still languishing in obscurity.

'I'm not responsible for any hospital visits, death, or nightmares, or any other unfortunate things that may occur,' the seller warns.

They may not have the brand recognition, but when it comes to the spirit realm, they're the real deal. At least, that's what the people selling them say.

Real haunted doll active!

"REAL HAUNTED DOLL ACTIVE! Possessed Malevolent Evil Demonic Spirit Of A Demon," is how eBay seller hauntedvoodoogirl describes a baby doll she's selling. With its clean pink dress and bright blue eyes, the doll doesn't exactly look evil — although the Ouija board behind her does add a hint of spookiness.

A word of caution follows: “Please note, by buying this doll, you are inviting a spirit to come into your home.”

Welcome to the seldom-traveled market of haunted dolls, dummies, and figurines, selling for anywhere from hundreds to thousands of dollars on auction websites.

Whether you believe in the supernatural or not, it's clear these dolls have become a lucrative storytelling opportunity for some budding entrepreneurs.

On eBay, there is a plethora of would-be haunted items selling for between $400 and $8,000, with plenty of buyers vying to take them home.

Hauntedvoodoogirl has 202 reviews, with a 100% positive review rating and over 650 sales. Many of these are sales of “haunted” dolls from $100 to $450 — just like the "possessed malevolent evil" baby doll she's currently trying to move.

Of course, these listings often come with a disclaimer: “It may take months with you to see any activity with a doll when it moves from one location to another, please give it time, very rarely will you see activity immediately, allow the doll time to feel comfortable in your home.”

Serious stories for serious money

As you move into the higher end of the possessed doll market, the backstories get more complex — yes, the backstories.

An allegedly possessed mannequin selling for $400 comes from a “well-known psychic medium” who claims to have been “practicing Wicca for 55 years.”

Skeptical? Does finding out that she moved next to a cemetery and purchased a hearse to feel closer to the “spirits" change your mind? What about the guarantee that every doll receives a midnight session that involves communication through meditation, an Ouija board, and even a pendulum, for some reason?

Just know that the principle of "buyer beware" applies: “I'm not responsible for any hospital visits, death, or nightmares, or any other unfortunate things that may occur,” the seller warns.

Got $450 to spend? Perhaps you'd like a life-sized “poltergeist”-haunted vessel. Once you hit this price point, salesmanship goes from jumbled descriptions to full-fledged fan fiction.

“Lillian was only 5 years old when her life was cruelly stolen. ... Her parents were physically abusive. ... Her mother forced her to light cigarettes on the hot stove, often causing painful burns on her small hands.”

Spooky self-help

Not all dolls have such grim backgrounds. Emma, for example, houses the spirit of a girl born in Michigan (just like the seller!). Emma stumbled upon a book about witchcraft in the library as a young girl, and her learning helped her find self-confidence and respect.

And now she's ready to pass these on to you. “Emma is going to help you find your strength, stick up for yourself, and to never tolerate disrespect,” the listing promises — all for a small fee of $600.

It's in the four-figure range that the sales pitches become truly baroque.

Whether it is a $3,000 “authentic demonic doll” or a $5,000 “paranormal” doll encased in a lantern, there’s no shortage of tales to spin.

That “cursed vessel” not only caused alleged financial ruin but car accidents and even six apartment floods. The incidents caused the owner to put the doll in a cage and perform a “protection spell.”

Now, the seller just wants to recoup some money from a generous buyer and allegedly get his or her life back together.

“If you’re crazy enough to pay what I am asking for this doll, then maybe you’ll be able to handle what it brings and the financial ruin it will bring you,” the seller writes.

For experienced owners only

A pair of classic possessed ventriloquist dolls can be yours for just $8,000. Then again, if you're forking over that much, maybe you'd prefer the reliability of an “active” porcelain doll.

For “experienced” owners of paranormal items only, this doll comes complete with audible footsteps and electromagnetic frequencies.

Here, as in all of these listings, there are no guarantees: Paranormal events could take weeks or even months to happen or may never happen at all. Some listings insist on no refunds, while others end their novellas more honestly, noting that the dolls are for entertainment purposes only.

You know, like blowing all your money in Vegas.

Upselling exorcism

The paranormal doll experience stretches beyond eBay, but the long-standing website is indeed where it has its strongest base. Thousand-word explainers dominate the market there and back up the experience with expensive product.

On other sites, like Facebook Marketplace, the tone is a little less serious. Yes, buyers will still find the “creepy old lady doll” they are looking for, but descriptions tend not to mince words.

“May or may not be possessed. There is no documented evidence of demonic activity, but the dog won't go in the same room with her."

And she can be yours for $45.

A pair of dolls that likely would be described on eBay as paranormal fixtures of a forgotten time merit nothing more than a laconic upsell on Facebook: “An exorcism can be performed for $50."

Still, even with a possessed doll that features its own custom “ghost bike,” Facebook consumers are hard-pressed to find anything that will break the bank.

Which raises the question: Just who's buying all these expensive eBay dolls — and why?

Shady business?

“I don't know what to say, to be honest,” collector Efron Monsanto told Align. “As a collector, I find the idea odd, but most items in the space for our type of hobbies are.”

Monsanto routinely goes far and wide seeking out rare and vintage oddities, but even he found the high prices for the dolls baffling.

“For sellers trying to profit off these dolls, I believe they could be taking advantage of the mentally ill and their allies.”

Few of these sellers seem to specialize in the haunted doll trade. Many of the dolls for sale appear to be one-off cash-grabs, sold alongside a catalogue of Pokemon cards, toys, or stuffed animals.

Still, some sellers do focus on a quality product, as evidenced by rave customer reviews.

“I keep coming back to the Seller! Time and time again!” said a buyer of yet another allegedly possessed doll.

Another buyer said her haunted clown has been “very active with me responding when I ask her to light up the catball and poltergeist activity!”

A different customer, who paid $100 for a haunted jewelry box, admitted experiencing no paranormal activity but was still pleased with the purchase.

“I Haven't Experienced ANYTHING Yet! But, I WILL Say This Box IS LOVELY!!!” the customer wrote.

Even as the prices go up, customers are still happy with their lack of activity, displaying a genuine interest in the authenticity of their purchase, with little expectations.

Harmless fun?

Chrissy Clark, a journalist who specializes in underreported stories, isn't so sure.

“Who is buying demonic dolls that someone is trying to off-load?" she asked.

“If these dolls are authentic, then there is an obvious spirit of greed that leads people to sell the items instead of destroy them.”

‘Evil, demonic behavior’: Drag queen and trans worship at the Cathedral of Hope church



The Cathedral of Hope church in Dallas celebrated the "Art of Drag" during a service followed by a drag brunch — and in a show of bravery, BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales sacrificed her own sanity to attend and report on the event.

The celebration was supposed to be an “act of defiance and in response to the numerous bills introduced in the Texas legislature attacking drag performers and transgender people.”

“During the services, we will take a few moments to bless and affirm those who use drag as an art form and affirm our transgender siblings made in the image of God,” read a promotional message on the Cathedral of Hope’s website.

“I did go, and I wish that I hadn’t,” Gonzales tells BlazeTV host Stu Burguiere on “Stu Does America,” before showing him the footage she captured during the event.


In one scene, drag performers — and an adult on his hands and knees in a furry costume — lined up at the front of the church to applause from those in the pews.

“That’s not an actual dog,” Stu says, but “a human being who’s crawling on all fours in front of a church. This is really what’s happening.”

“That actually happened at a church this weekend. Again, it was all drag performers. People dressed as women that were men, I guess vice versa as well, and at least one person who is being led on a leash,” he continues.

“I laugh so I don’t cry,” Gonzales chimes in. “I’m the one who has to go document these events. It really is startling to be there in what they call a house of God.”

“They’ve got all these big, beautiful crosses everywhere, and to watch this evil, demonic behavior taking place with crosses all around, symbols of God all around, is the most unsettling thing,” she continues. “I mean, it’s bad when it's with kids, right? But this one being in a house of God, they say, you just feel it in your gut.”

Rebuking the demonic demands that we reject leftist lies



A few years ago, I started attending counseling sessions with a Christian therapist because I was wrestling with what the broader field of psychology calls an “inner critic.” It’s that nasty voice that whispers you’re not good enough, you’re a failure, you’re unlovable.

Being a reader and a researcher, I went into my initial session already knowing that our inner critic originates primarily from two places: Either it's born of society’s unrealistic expectations, or it comes from internalizing criticism from others, usually during childhood.

I guess I didn’t account for the fact that I was seeing a Christian therapist — someone who does not exclusively operate in the bounds of mainstream psychology — because before I could finish telling her what I thought were the origins of my inner critic, she cut me off.

Actually, I think what you’re dealing with is demonic lies.

Pardon?

Yeah, I think those terrible things you think about yourself aren’t necessarily your thoughts. They’re lies being whispered to you by the enemy. You need to rebuke them.

At the time, the idea was outlandish to me. I believed in the demonic — believed that demons could and often did torment people. But this wasn’t that, surely. This was me mentally flogging myself for failing to meet expectations that I subconsciously agreed to.

The left has been captured by demonic ideology.

I won’t bore you with the details of the long and somewhat strange journey it took for me to realize that my counselor was right. Suffice it to say that I learned to distinguish between the voice that gently convicts and spurs us toward repentance when we have erred, our God-given conscience that guides us in general ethics and morality, and the hateful, lying voice of the enemy that seeks to incapacitate us with fear and shame — often using our past traumas and modernity’s lofty standards to do it — and to create division between us and God.

When that hateful voice of the enemy rears its head, hurling accusations, insults, and lies, I have learned that the only way to silence it is indeed to rebuke it as slander from the demonic that follows in the stead of Satan, whom the Bible calls “the accuser of our brethren” (Revelation 12:10). Lying is "his native language,” it says in John 8:44.

Perhaps it’s this practiced discernment that allows me to recognize demonic lies in other playing fields.

By now Christians — not those in name only, but the saints who regard the Bible as both truth and authority — understand that the left has been captured by demonic ideology.

Since the dawn of this new progressive Democratic Party, believers have been calling out the big three — the sexualization of children, abortion, and gender theory — as those are the issues that are most diametrically opposed to biblical doctrine and therefore can easily be identified as demonic.

But there’s another way Satan has influenced the Democratic Party and its voter base to do his bidding, and it’s not one that gets adequate attention. On top of convincing liberals that progressivism, which inverts biblical truth, is the way forward, he’s also convinced them that the response to opposition is to spit venomous, defamatory accusations, the vast majority of which are egregious lies.

Let’s look at some common indictments that come from the radical left.

  • If you think marriage is something that occurs between a man and a woman, you’re a homophobe.
  • If you’re not pro-censorship, you endorse hate speech.
  • If you think it’s impossible to be born in the wrong body, you’re a transphobe.
  • If you don’t want your child exposed to gender theory in school, you’re a bigot.
  • If you don’t get on board with the idea of black reparations, you’re a racist.
  • If you don’t support abortion, you want to deny women lifesaving health care.
  • If you don’t shriek in horror at Trump’s mass deportation plans, you’re a xenophobe.
  • If you don’t besmirch the founding of our country, you’re a white supremacist.

The list is endless.

It boils down to this: If you don’t agree with X leftist idea, then you’re a vile person deserving of condemnation, ostracization, and shame. Your head is immediately placed on the guillotine of cancel culture.

These kinds of accusations fit the description of the voice of evil I described above. They are accusatory, hateful, and aimed at silencing people using shame and fear; they create division; and most of the time, they’re lies.

Unless, of course, someone is a legitimate racist, misogynist, or whatever it might be. When it comes to these people (and they do exist; I know some of them), certain accusations are true and deserved. To hate people for their race, gender, or other immutable trait is also demonic and should be called out as such.

When something falsely accuses, breeds fear, shame, and division, spreads lies, and incites persecution, you can be sure it's demonic in origin.

But if you look at the entire landscape of our country, the truth is that these people are rare and getting rarer — and of the ones who do exist, many of them are actually on the left. They’re the ones fighting fabricated racism with real racism, perceived misogyny with genuine misandry, pretend homophobia with slights against the nuclear family.

But radical leftists either can’t see this or they simply don’t care because their agenda is pre-eminent.

Either way, they spit these accusations with the intention of silencing dissent. In doing so, they crush their adversaries and instill fear in the bystanders who watch wide-eyed as the heads of bold naysayers roll. Fear waxes, brave opponents wane, and a destructive lie — whatever it may be — crystallizes: Pro-lifers don’t want women to get lifesaving care, DEI opposers want black people to fail, and those who didn’t get the COVID vaccine are granny-killers. Society at large then accepts these lies as truth. Those who don’t bend the knee are then persecuted.

When something falsely accuses, breeds fear, shame, and division, spreads lies, and incites persecution, you can be sure it's demonic in origin. And when something is demonic in origin, you rebuke it.

But what does this look like? After all, when it comes to these kinds of accusations, we’re dealing not with actual demons but with human beings who have probably unknowingly adopted a demonic creed. Rebuking isn’t going to look the same.

And maybe "rebuke" isn’t even the right word. Perhaps "reject" is a better fit for this scenario.

I like what Megyn Kelly said recently when she was covering the acquittal of Daniel Penny. To the BLM radicalists who were spewing the lie that Penny acted out of racism, Kelly said, “That's not working any more. You're going to have to find a new line. I don't know what it's going to be, but the BLM era is officially over.”

I think her words are a good template: No, that’s not true. Now move along with your lies. They have no impact here.

Imagine how public discourse would shift if we all had this response when another false accusation was thrown at us. The power would be sucked from that lie, and we could simply move on.

Under the Biden regime, with its chain links to the legacy media, big tech, and every other big _____ out there, perhaps this simple notion wouldn’t have worked. The narrative was set in stone. But it’s dawn in America, and the stone is crumbling. With the inauguration of Donald Trump just days away, change is here, with more of it on the horizon. The mouths of lions are already being shut. The heads of giants are already rolling.

I say this not to equate Trump, however powerful and mighty he might be, with God but rather to say that God saved this man because of the role he will play in the revival of America — a revival that is already unfolding before our eyes.

Trump has his part to play in the rebuilding of this great nation — securing our borders, re-establishing order in our streets, weeding out anti-Americanism, dismantling the Deep State, and restoring economic prosperity, among others.

But we also have a critical role to play. I feel strongly that part of that role is, one, to recognize that the accusations and name-calling of the left are a demonic plot, and, two, to reject them and speak the truth.

We must boldly declare that men are men and women are women; that babies, regardless of their age and circumstances surrounding their conception, deserve life; that all people, as image-bearers of God, are equally deserving of dignity; and, perhaps most importantly, that these statements do not make us homophobes, racists, white supremacists, Christian nationalists, or even far-right radicals. They make us truth-tellers.

Andrew Tate's ‘absolutely demonic’ worldview will RUIN lives



Once the most Googled man on the planet, Andrew Tate has now fallen far off his generational run, and Jason Whitlock of “Fearless” thinks it’s about time.

“Andrew Tate. The influencer, the pump, the OnlyFans manipulator, the guy facing imprisonment in Romania. He’s a really wicked man; he is a devilish man, pushing a line of deceit that is really, really subversive and manipulative,” Whitlock says before reading one of Tate’s Christmastime posts on X.

“The real redpill about race that nobody ever says: White people are doomed to fail because they’re the only race that cares about what women think and say. Result? Liberalism. LGBT. Birth Rate declines. The list goes on,” Tate wrote.

Tate went on to say that “every white woman alive fantasizes about a black man” and that “the winning races simply ignore what women think completely and use them for children only.”


“That is pure wickedness,” Whitlock comments. “That is a kernel of truth, that men must quit pandering to the emotions of women and then using that as a jumping off point to promote irresponsible, immoral, chaotic behavior that leads to more and more chaos and more unfathered, unparented kids.”

“I do not understand how anybody defends Andrew Tate at this point. I’ve never been someone that’s defended Andrew Tate. I’ve seen others try to find or try to promote that there’s some sort of redeeming quality to Andrew Tate, that he’s being set up and being persecuted because he’s a real man and he promotes masculinity.”

“No, this is wickedness. This is stupidity. These are outright lies,” he continues. “He is a distraction, and unfortunately, there are men who will buy this stuff. This whole manosphere, this whole red pill.”

And those people are being led down a path diametrically opposed to the one they claim to believe in.

“This post is demonic. Absolutely demonic,” Whitlock says. “If you’re a heterosexual, Christian black man, your number one ally outside of other heterosexual, Christian black men, outside of them, it’s the Evangelical, heterosexual, Christian white man.”

“That is your ally. Andrew Tate is trying to lead you away from your actual ally, any Christian man that’s trying to pursue holiness, trying to pursue righteousness. That is your ally,” he adds.

‘Demonic activity’: Why RADICAL gender ideology is uniquely EVIL



One of the most important Supreme Court cases of our time is underway, and it questions whether a Tennessee law passed last year violates the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment.

The case, United States v. Skrmetti, is focused on Tennessee Senate Bill 1, which prohibits all medical treatments intended to allow “a minor to identify with, or live as, a purported identity inconsistent with the minor’s sex” or to treat “purported discomfort or distress from a discordance between the minor’s sex and asserted identity.”

One of the ACLU lawyers arguing against the Tennessee law at the Supreme Court is a woman who identifies as a man.

“What do you say to physicians who are sensitive and supportive of trans kids, obviously don’t want suicidal ideation, etcetera, but wonder if there is enough data as of now to prove that it is beneficial to allow these sort of treatments before the age of 18?” CNN’s Jake Tapper asked ACLU lawyer Chase Strangio in an interview.


“These are not doctors who are being forced to provide this medication. These are doctors who are wanting to treat their patients in the best way that they know how based on the best available evidence to us. And these are young people who may have known since they were 2 years old exactly who they are, who suffered for six, seven years before they had any relief,” Strangio replied.

“It’s not the kids who are consenting to this treatment, it’s the parents who are consenting to the treatment,” Strangio added.

“What we have been overcome by is demonic activity,” Steve Deace of the “Steve Deace Show” comments. “The U.S. v. Skrmetti case is just flat out demonic. It’s even more demonic than abortion.”

“A sinful human conscience can come up with rationales for, ‘Well, I can’t raise a baby right now, I can’t afford a baby right now, I just found out this baby’s going to be born with a deformity and not live a normal life,’” Deace explains. “Everything I just said is wicked and evil, correct, yes. But the sinful, fallen human consciousness could come up with a moral calculus by which it would make sense to masses of people.”

“No such language is possible with the trans issue,” he continues, adding, “We are on national television with [a lady who looks like a dude] saying 2-year-olds can mutilate themselves. No cover, no rationale, no alternative explanations.”

“No, right out in the open. Macabre,” he adds.

'Horrifying message': The new 'Dear Santa' kids movie is literally satanic



It’s the Christmas season, and with it comes new Christmas movies. One of those supposedly kid-friendly films is called “Dear Santa” — which stars Jack Black as Satan.

And the latter should come as no surprise, as Jack Black has been incredibly outspoken over the past few years regarding his progressive politics and support for Kamala Harris.

In the film, his character is summoned by a dyslexic 6th-grader named Liam who had accidentally written “Satan” instead of “Santa” on a letter. Satan then attempts to get Liam to sell his soul for a few granted wishes. Liam then mistakes Satan for the actual Santa Claus and is told that any three wishes he wants will be granted — but the cost is spending eternity in hell.


The child reportedly says in the film, “Just because Satan’s come into my life doesn’t mean I worship him now. Meeting Satan may have been the best thing that ever happened to me.”

Allie Beth Stuckey of “Relatable” is absolutely disturbed.

“What is it about children and demonic ideologies and witchcraft that so many progressives and Hollywood seem to love?” Stuckey comments, adding, “I know there is a dark history there.”

“Children are always the un-consenting subjects of progressive social experiments. Satan has always had it out for children. He loves to prey upon children, that’s why there is such a sweet and ironic and beautiful twist to Jesus coming to Earth as a baby and being the one to crush Satan’s head,” she continues.

The film attempts to depict Satan, who brings Liam’s brother back from the dead, as having “occasional good will.”

“This is a horrible, horrifying message that you should not flirt with at all. You should not even allow your teenagers to watch something like this. It would get them excited about trying to communicate with Satan,” Stuckey says, adding, “I can not think of a worse message to convey to anyone — in particular, children.”

Vampires, werewolves, and the very real evil stalking our souls



Since the dawn of October, I’ve found myself thinking often about two iconic monsters — the bloodthirsty vampire and the shapeshifting werewolf.

Perhaps it’s the Halloween decorations everywhere, the pop-up costume shops on every corner, or the horror films Netflix keeps recommending to me.

The vampiric spirit of bloodlust is easy enough to see in the widespread demand for unfettered abortion.

It could also be my recent discovery of “Haunted Cosmos” — a podcast for the highly curious that examines myth, legend, and the paranormal through the lens of Christian doctrine.

The creators of the series, Ben Garrett and Brian Sauve, make the case that much of what Christians dismiss as superstition is either true, partially true, or, at bare minimum, inspired by something true.

They take seriously the notion of aliens, dragons, Bigfoot, faeries, monsters, and the like. Using scripture as their decoder, they ask: Does the Bible offer support for the existence of these creatures?

Mask off

Whether or not stories about vampires and werewolves refer to actual creatures in the world (Garrett and Sauve have devoted fantastic episodes to this topic), one thing seems undeniably true to me.

The evil depicted by these legends is real — as real as the ground beneath our feet.

I’ve also been connecting the dots between this primordial evil and two of the most alarming modern issues contributing to the decline of the West. While these concepts may seem worlds apart, I sense a sinister connection between them.

The vampire and werewolf must be regarded in earnest because they pervade history. Every culture across time has some version of these evil entities. And when a thread of thought weaves through time and place, surely it hides a deeper truth. But what?

As a Christian, my answer to that question is that supernatural forces that crave human blood and revel in the idea of shapeshifting exist. They are demonic in nature and very powerful.

The anti-gospel

A vampire is a being who lives by taking the life force (the blood) of others. Is that not the antithesis of the gospel message? The vampire says, "Your blood for my life," whereas Jesus gave his blood so that we might live.

Vampirism is an anti-gospel. It expresses the rebellion of the original fallen angel — that great foil to Yahweh, Satan. That’s not to say vampires with fangs who sleep in coffins exist but rather that the entity that gave birth to such a myth exists.

The same goes for the spirit or entity that inspired the werewolf archetype. A werewolf is a man who, infected by evil, is forced to reject his nature and become a grotesque version of who he was intended to be. Again, we see an obvious perversion of God’s design. The rejection of our own nature is a rejection of our creator, who made us in his own image. This is also an anti-gospel.

Perhaps it’s a stretch to say that the same demonic entities that inspired vampires and werewolves are currently terrorizing the West, but I don’t think so. Not when I look closely at two of the biggest evils facing us today — evils directly caused by the rejection of our Judeo-Christian heritage.

What are abortion and transgenderism, after all, but the return of those iconic creatures of death, the vampire and the werewolf.

Shout Your Abortion

The vampiric spirit of bloodlust is easy enough to see in the widespread demand for unfettered abortion — especially on the furthest flank of the left, which openly relishes the slaughter of the unborn. One particular attendee at a pro-choice rally comes to mind. On her rotund, third-trimester belly were painted the words “NOT A BABY.” The image still haunts me.

There’s also the Shout Your Abortion organization, which quite literally encourages women to celebrate their abortions and share their “success stories.” SYA’s mission statement outlines its intentions to create a society where “abortion is free, de-stigmatized, and accessible in every community across the country.” In other words, these people really love the idea of boundless bloodshed.

Consider the murderous zeal of Minnesota governor — and Kamala Harris' running mate — Tim Walz, who signed a statute repealing the law that required babies who survive botched abortions to receive life-saving care. Even those whose lives have been miraculously spared cannot escape doom under the Walz regime.

Father of lies

However, not everyone is so candid about their desire to facilitate a genocide against the unborn. There are vampires who employ seduction to achieve their twisted desires. Like the serpent who used language to ensnare Eve in the garden, these cunning bloodsuckers deceive their victims with poetic discourse.

In Bram Stoker’s “Dracula,” the titular count tells his quarry, “Mina, to walk with me you must die to your breathing life and be reborn to mine.” That’s a very polite way of expressing your intentions to gorge on someone’s blood and turn them into a fellow wraith.

Pro-choicers of this kind speak in euphemisms. They make abortion — the bloody disruption of the holy process during which God knits a soul into being — sound practical, moral, even benevolent: Women’s health care, reproductive rights, life-saving interventions.

Having been wooed and deceived, the vampire’s victim walks willingly to her — and it’s almost always a her — death. Similarly, young women are seduced by euphemistic pro-choice language and agree to not their own death but something even worse — the death of their innocent child. We see the common thread: Young women, deceived by language, make a decision that results in a bloody death.

Unleashing the beast within

As for the demonic entity that inspired the shapeshifting werewolf, I see its handiwork primarily in the transgender movement. An ideology that is capable of subverting language, butchering healthy bodies, removing children from loving homes, and obliterating the guardrails that have long protected women is a demonic ideology.

At its root is Satan’s original sin: He thought he was better than God. Transgenderism shares the same core belief — the same pride-filled ideation that we supersede the King of kings.

A man who believes he is a woman and attempts to reshape himself in accordance with this belief sins in three ways: He rejects himself, thereby rejecting the one in whose image he was created; he rejects God, purporting to know better than his own creator; and he imitates the deceiver, who is also a shapeshifter. The same goes for a woman who attempts to shed her God-given form and become a man.

Like the werewolf who is both destroyed and inflicts destruction, so, too, the transgender individual destroys his or her own body and/or psyche and perpetuates a destructive, demonic creed.

The darkness remains

I do not believe that the millions of people foaming at the mouth demanding abortion access for all just have a different perspective than me. I do not think that the doctors sterilizing children and cutting off their healthy body parts merely grew up differently than I did. That’s an oversimplification of the problem at hand.

Of course, we need to speak out and fight back against the organizations pushing these causes, the politicians working to enshrine them in law, the billionaires funding them, and the protesters storming the streets chanting for abortion access and trans rights.

At the same time, however, we need to look beyond these flesh-and-blood adversaries in order to see the true author of these evils. It is not man.

“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms” (Ephesians 6:12).

As Halloween approaches, my neighbors are quite literally pulling skeletons out of their closets, adorning their porches and lawns with all varieties of dark paraphernalia.

Two doors down from me, one couple has turned their entire front yard into a haunted graveyard featuring every monstrous creature imaginable, including — you guessed it — a vampire and a werewolf.

Although I find myself averting my eyes when I walk by, their celebration of darkness has set me down a path of considering how society at large celebrates darkness — the abortion and trans issues being just two on the long list of ideologies poisoning the West.

When October passes and the plastic monsters and tombstones are banished to dusty attics until next year, the darkness they represent will remain, and it will continue to erode society.

I wonder if the evil associated with Halloween, which many Christians rightfully avoid, might actually present an opportunity for us to consider how darkness — vampires and bloodlust, werewolves and shapeshifting — doesn’t ever go away. It merely puts on a new mask.

Satanic Temple opens abortion clinic in Virginia for its 'destruction ritual'



After helping kill over 100 unborn babies in New Mexico at an average cost of $91 per head, the Satanic Temple has expanded its abortion enterprise to Virginia.

The anti-Christian group, based in Massachusetts, announced on Saturday that it is now offering expectant mothers in the Old Dominion telehealth abortion services and possible travel assistance, noting that patients need only cover the cost of the abortifacient from its California-based partner pharmacy.

While co-founder Lucien Greaves and other proponents of the radical group deny actually worshipping demonic forces — indicating that theirs is effectively an atheistic leftist organization wearing the skin of a satanic cult that just happens to erect statues of Baphomet around Christmastime — the Virginia death dispensary, like the Temple's "Samuel Alito's Mom's Satanic Abortion Clinic" in New Mexico, blurs the lines between role-play and the real thing.

'The ritual, which includes the abortion itself, spans the entirety of the pregnancy termination procedure.'

For women seeking to snuff out the life growing inside them, the Satanic Temple offers an "abortion ritual," which it describes as a "destructive ritual that serves as a protective rite."

The stated purpose of this death ritual is to "cast off notions of guilt, shame and mental discomfort" associated with the extermination of innocent life and to altogether affirm the choice.

"TST's abortion ritual can be performed to address definable concerns or to overcome unproductive feelings," says the ritual guideline. "The ritual, which includes the abortion itself, spans the entirety of the pregnancy termination procedure. There are steps to be performed before, during, and after the medical or surgical abortion."

The radical group makes repeated mention of individual rights and "scientific reasoning" on its site, suggesting that in the case of individual rights, "one's body is inviolable, subject to one's own will alone," and in the case of scientific reasoning that "beliefs should conform to one's best scientific understanding of the world."

However, such statements amount to little more than a rhetorical smokescreen. After all, the Satanic Temple appears keen to overlook the rights of the unborn as well as the scientific reasoning concerning fetal pain, fetal cognitive function, and the separate genetic identity of the unborn child.

'The Satanic Temple's ultimate goal is to undermine Christ's kingdom.'

Erin Helian, the executive director of the Satanic Temple, told the Christian Post that the Virginia death dispensary — which deals in the kind of dangerous chemical abortion pills that effectively killed Amber Thurman in 2022 — was made possible in part by the funding of donors.

The Satanic Temple has been chasing after donations of $66.60 for its burgeoning abortion enterprise.

"As abortion rights continue to be a central issue in the upcoming U.S. presidential election, we remain steadfast in our mission to expand access and protect bodily autonomy," the radical group noted in a release. "We will not stop until we have made a lasting difference."

Helping American women abort their children is not the Satanic Temple's only preoccupation, although it has certainly made a habit of challenging pro-life legislation.

The radical group has also distributed satanic literature to children; publicly performed "unbaptisms"; held a demonization ceremony in protest of the canonization of the Catholic Spanish priest Junípero Serra; promoted euthanasia and pornography; and erected demon statues on government property.

Blaze News' Kevin Ryan recently noted that despite its members' denial, the Satanic Temple's "devotion to Satan — a mythological character, they say — is unmistakable."

"If they were truly godless, they wouldn't fixate so obsessively on Christianity. The Satanic Temple's ultimate goal is to undermine Christ's kingdom," wrote Ryan.

"The Satanic Temple and other movements that promote abortion rights in the name of autonomy are in fact beholden to an anti-freedom," added Ryan. "Christians know that Satan cannot create life — he only destroys. He may offer seductive ideas cloaked in equality or liberty, but his goal is always to eradicate the value of human life, which stands at the core of God's creation."
