The New Fundamentalism and the Religion of Politics created a massive divide in America. Partisan party politics are far more important than the country and far from common sense.

It is political warfare—do whatever it takes to win, take no prisoners, and the winner takes all.

We have entered a dark place for many where the ideology of their political affiliation takes over everything in their lives. They are triggered if their specific points of view are not coddled.

Turning politics into religion is, in my estimation, a very dangerous place to be, and yet here we are in 2024. It’s where winning and having power is more important than anything else.

Those who would gladly abolish religion and prohibit the free exercise thereof are themselves politically committed to their own brand of partisan political religion: open borders, abortion, and the Green New Deal are all chapters in this political bible.

There are more and more among us who are dedicating themselves to the cult of progressive politics while screaming that anyone who does not heed their demands of total compliance over everything is a heretic. Of course, those who oppose them are a “threat to Democracy.”

But they are the political extremists whose religion is politics. They are the bomb throwers who scream about MAGA fascists while pursuing every political opponent they can and chant for their biggest political bogeyman to be cast into prison.

And they call us the fascists.
This religion, with contempt for one nation under God, is in opposition to our civil religion. This religion, with its contempt for the idea of God, that God exists, that God is true, and that God is just, is without mercy. 

This religion, with contempt for the sons of Abraham and all who are children of God through faith, declares war on the foundations of our Judeo-Christian nation and the very building blocks of the liberty that sustain America.

They are willing to sacrifice everything in deference to their newfound purity.

Look at the desecration of our institutions due to Joe Biden, who celebrates the attacks on his political opponents and will never raise a finger to do the right thing no matter how unjust the attacks on Donald Trump are.

Look at the desecration of our laws because of Biden. Special Counsel Jack Smith was appointed by Biden’s Department of Justice to pursue Donald Trump to the ends of the earth like a hound dog on a hot squirrel. Smith’s entire charade is, by definition, illegal because AG Merrick Garland cannot create a position without congressional approval.

Look at the desecration of the sanctity of our southern border under Biden. He has told us for years that the border is secure. His henchmen, like Alejandro Mayorkas, repeated the same as did the zombies of his party and the compliant media.

But when the political winds shifted, and the pursuit of Donald Trump failed to produce the poison fruit of the forbidden tree, Joe Biden and the Democrats suddenly admitted the border was open but blamed everyone else.
We do not need an executive order that grants asylum to the first 2,500 who reach the border each and every day.

We do not want a race to our border from all over the world.

We must not permit anyone to breach the border, but it went on for three and a half years until the policy had to be sacrificed on the altar of politics because it is a loser.

The invasion goes on, thanks to Biden and his accomplices, who would make America a home for all foreigners and leave Americans without a homeland—the promise to stop the invasion is just a smokescreen; candidate Biden promised mass amnesty.

For those who would make anti-Americanism a civic duty, Biden’s order is the patriotism of scoundrels.

The order commands us to see no evil and instead hold a vigil for the death of liberty.

Such is the religion of politics, where eternal vigilance is no virtue and blind faith in Joe Biden is apparently no sin.

Such is a policy of maximum hospitality to strangers.

Such is the effect of a policy authorizing the invasion of America.

As tomorrow is also the 80th anniversary of D-Day, let us always remember why we remember. In the words of President Reagan, “We will always be prepared, so we may always be free.”
 
And yet, we are not prepared today as Reagan promised.
 
Our freedom is not secure, and many wonder if it is slipping away under the current leadership in Washington—and that includes too many Republicans.

Our nation is under attack.

To say otherwise is an insult.

To say Biden believes in freedom, that his actions are a testament to freedom, is an insult to the memory of our honored dead interred in France and around the world.

Look at the rows of crosses and Stars of David, beneath which those that gave the last full measure of devotion to our Republic rest.  

Look at the names of the missing, for whom nothing else remains, not even bones for a grateful nation to inter.

Look at the graves that line the fields of the Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial in France.

The cemetery covers 172.5 acres and is home to 9,388 of our American military dead—those who paid the ultimate price.

The religion of politics would break every cross and smash every headstone based on ideology—and some ignorant fool would proclaim some passage about the separation of church and state.

This religion, with its slavish devotion to authority, would enslave us, and believe me, they are trying.

This religion, with its love of hatred, would destroy us, and believe me, that is their aim.
 
Hatred is the spirit of the religion of politics from the left, which is a doctrine without mercy and an ideology without deviation.
 
Look at our culture.
 
Look at our cities.
 
Look at our college campuses.
 
Destruction mars all three.
 
Destruction is the liturgy of the religion of politics.
 
Destruction must not be our lot.
 
To quote Abraham Lincoln’s “The Perpetuation of Our Political Institutions:”
 
“As a nation of free men, we must live through all time or die by suicide. Let reverence for the laws be taught in schools, in seminaries, and in colleges; let it be written in primers, spelling books, and in almanacs. Let it become the political religion of the nation, and let the old and the young, the rich and the poor, the grave and the gay, of all sexes and tongues, and colors and conditions, sacrifice unceasingly upon its altars.”

The religion of the political must never become the political religion of the United States.

The religion of politics must not continue as the political religion of the Democrat Party.

Are there Democrats who remember the best among their party?
 
Are there Democrats who long for the past, not because they romanticize the past, but because they mourn the Democrat Party in its present form?

Are there Democrats who believe the party has no future if it renounces its past?

In a word, yes.

For these Democrats, the religion of politics is the enemy of all that is good.
 
To these Democrats, we offer hope and charity.
 
The religion we believe in, with its many houses of worship, is the essence of America.
 
We are Jews, we are Christians.
 
We are Protestants; we are Catholics.
 
We are freedom-loving, God-fearing Americans.
 
We are, as President Kennedy says, “proud of our ancient heritage and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world.”
 
The religion of politics has no respect for God-given rights.
 
The religion of politics has no limits.
 
The religion of politics has no principles.
 
If we believe in freedom, we must defend it.
 
If we believe America is the land of the free, we must honor our dead. 
 
If we believe America is the home of the brave, we must honor the living.
 
Freedom is our political religion, and America is our temple—one that we must defend.
