We want to point out the difference between the right and the left and the political landscape. On the left, the people who are considered the most extreme fight for something called democratic socialism, which actually would go help people earn a dignified, livable wage and not have to file for medical bankruptcy in the world's richest country. On the right, their extremists have become mainstream. And these, of course, are the psychotic, evil Christian nationalists. And this guy has hundreds of thousands of followers. He is a MAGA pastor. His name is Joel Webin. And I want you guys to listen to this bat statement. Play the clip.
Joel Webin
Judges who dissented again, Jackson Kagan, Sodom Mayor, all three of them women. One of them, Kagan, is a Jew, and Sotomayor is a second generation Puerto Rican immigrant. What we need if we're going to succeed as a nation, we need many things. First and foremost, we need repentance of our sin and turning in faith to the Lord Jesus Christ. But in terms of practicalities, political solutions, we need men in office. We need them not to be Jewish or Islamic or anything else, but Christian men in office. And we need them to be American Christian men in office. I have a dream, brothers and sisters. It's a simple dream. I don't feel like it's that big of an ask.
Punk
What a prick.
Jennifer
You know, I, I watch this and I think this is, there's no difference in this. And Sharia law, it's just dressed up differently. Men, no gays. We want everybody.
Punk
Jews, no Jews.
Jennifer
I mean, it's unbelievable to me that this is happening in the United States and people are not just appalled.
Punk
But here's one thing. Like, you can see a lot of white country club Republicans and even, you know, fanatical Christians watching this. Men watching this and going, yes, but what pumps. And I know from living in the Bible Belt, a lot of women would see this and say, yes, I agree, we shouldn't have a woman as president. Women are too emotional, which I've never seen anybody more emotional in my life than the aggrieved titty baby president. Taco Tits Wine. He's an emotional basket case. All right, moving along. Next up, we have Representative Mary Miller, and she says that she's fighting evil by doing this in Congress.
Michelle Bachman
The other thing, I came out with, the mission, which was the same when I was in Illinois, and that is, I believe God's left us on earth as believers to overcome evil with good and Pride Month. In my opinion, evil, the left hijacked it to promote gender confusion, to promote indecency. Hypersexualizing our children and actually grooming our children. So I decided I'm going to reclaim it for the family.
Punk
So she wants to turn Pride Month into Family Month, and somebody needs to go tell her that LGBTQI plus people are members of families. They are members of families that aren't assholes like you. And here's something I want to point out from the first video to this video. The Republican Party is very anti Semitic, and they never get called out for it. Instead, the onus falls on college kids who see a genocide occurring in Gaza and her standing up for human rights, which is a very normal thing that people do. And then this sitting here, just hatred and homophobia all in the name of her religion. I mean, it's just absolutely abhorrent. But I want to tell you guys, pumps can attest to this. There are schools all over the United States of America that are these evangelical Christian schools where parents think they want their kids to get a Christian education. They're taught exactly what this woman says, and their parents pay for it to make sure they're indoctrinated in this level of hatred towards the LGBTQ + community.
Jennifer
Well, and this woman here, she is completely in on the patriarchy. As a member of Congress criticizing people that are different than her. Again, I go back to, we want to be in control. I mean, this group, maga, they want to control everything, and everything is going to be under a white male because the Bible is patriarchal, full stop. And they think that they have the.
Punk
Right to judge gay people.
Jennifer
They think it's their God given right.
Punk
Well, and it's interesting to me that somebody could be a student of a faith or engaged in a faith, because I'm not. I'm an atheist. And it's interesting to me that you have large swaths of people and they're, They're. Their focus of their faith is promoting white men and their wealth and demeaning anybody else instead of, oh, my gosh, look at these refugees at the border with babies strapped to their backs. I mean, you would have to be in a dire situation to strap your baby on your back with just a few personal items and a bottle of water and, you know, with a. With your feet and your tennis shoes and rolling the dice and hoping that somebody shows you grace and welcoming. And these people, these religious people don't see that. They see them as inhuman, and it's just such a disgrace. And I can say I wasn't raised with religion, but being raised around and all of my peers being evangelical Christians it made me thank God that I don't believe in, that my mother didn't indoctrinate me because these people in everyday life are just as cruel as these people say. At the end of the day, you hook them up to true sermon upon polygraph. They think gay people are evil. They think immigrants are less than human. It's a huge cancer in this country. And the Democrats have got to start attacking the hypocritical faith of these MAGA Christians because it is so dangerous and it is a death cult. All right, next up, we have batshit crazy former Congresswoman Michelle Bachman. And here she is with some insane anti Semitic apocalyptic fantasy.
Michelle Bachman
We are living in the times that the Bible said that the prophets longed to see. The prophets of the Bible wanted to be alive. Now, when you and I are alive, they wanted to be alive because of what would happen, what was going to happen. Because it was very clear from the very beginning of the Bible, God gave a special purpose to the Jewish people.
Punk
So there it is right there. They want the Jews to be in Israel for the Rapture. There is a huge component of the Republican Party and always has been, even predates Maga, that wants the Jews to be in Israel so that Jesus Christ can come back and condemn the Jews to hell forever. Their props for them. Their props. And the problem with the Israeli government, the current government, is they know these people are dipshits, but they take the money and then you have this corrupt government like Benjamin Netanyahu. But to me, how disrespectful to the Jewish race who fell prey to genocide to then say, yeah, get in your positions before our Lord and Savior comes and genocides you for all eternity. I mean, to me, there's nothing more demeaning or dehumanizing than having Jewish people in their places for your apocalyptic fantasy.
Jennifer
Well, it's funny because it is. The. This administration is so anti Semitic, yet they run around saying they're not anti Semitic. But clearly they are so anti Semitic. But I'm just going to tell you, I grew up with rapture prepping like this on every Sunday. Come in. You know, Jesus is coming. We're going to have a rapture. You need to be in your place the whole night.
Punk
This is.
Jennifer
They've been saying this for 55 years.
Punk
And the thing is, what's so alarming about that is now these people are behind the levers of power, right? And you've got people speaking in tongues in the parking lot of the White House. You have people that are having faith, prayer, Revivals in the White House, speaking in tongues, that, that grifter and liar Paula White, who's Trump's faith advisor. And so what's a really interesting thing is you have all these people that claim to be uber Christian who are championing the most bigotry and hateful and cruel regime that this country has seen since slavery. We are. This is the most regressive thing. And these magical thinkers, people who want to base policy on magical thinking. And I know that some of you all are probably Christian light, but I'm just going to tell you right here, you cannot base policy that affects a country of 350 million who also has the most bombs and guns and all that in the world for the whole globe. And everybody's safety on these people who are rapture preppers. And they have been planing and raising and indoctrinating and sending people into the government. And they've been playing the long game. What's interesting about this is our adversaries know that these people are the dipshits and that's how they enter into the American government. Allah, Vladimir Putin sending his Russian spies to the prayer breakfast because these people are the most malleable and easy to convince because they believe in the Rapture. All right, next up and last, we have Cat Kerr, a self proclaimed Trump MAGA prophet. Let's hear what this batshit crazy has to say.
Cat Kerr
The Lord had told me to please let the people know there will be no World War Three. Hallelujah.
Jennifer
So, number one, hallelujah.
Cat Kerr
No matter what's going on or what's going on, it will not become World War iii. I know that's on the mouth of a lot of people, in the mind of a lot of people, because of all the activity, the fierceness, the battles, the little mini wars going on everywhere and in between countries. Of course, we know Israel is at war right now with Iran. I can probably prophesy that won't last long. Yeah, God is definitely on there with his chosen people.
Punk
I mean, this is just this freak show nuts, a total freak show.
Jennifer
You know, what's interesting is like, and honestly, until I, you know, growing up, it didn't strike me as odd. But Mike Johnson, this woman, well, God told me, like, they're having conversations. So you, you just hear it so much. But when you say that out loud and you think about it, it's like, is it schizophrenia? Is it your imagination? Like, why is it that people think they're having imaginary conversations? And why aren't we alarmed from jumping?
Punk
These people are Con artists.
Jennifer
Yeah.
Punk
I mean, these people are total con artists. And I also think that they. They've looked at. Neurologists, have looked at cat scans of people on drugs and how their brain reacts, and they've looked at people high on religion and how their brain reacts, and it's very similar CAT scans. And so you have something in this on the addictions, addiction spectrum called religious addiction. And people that are religiously addicted to just like a crackhead would be, and these people are religious crackheads. They are addicted to their religion. And it is a damaging, toxic thing in their lives. Much like somebody who is addicted to drugs, it is a damaging, toxic thing in their lives. And it is a problem in the United States of America that operates with impunity. These churches are not taxed. They are indoctrinating generations of people to hate and otherize and dehumanize and demoralize their fellow human beings instead of offering grace and compassion. And I. All I can say is my on the ground experience is. And my mother told me this early in my life, and it has always turned out to be true. The loudest Christians are always the biggest. 10 times out of 10, it is never, ever, ever failed. All right, that's all we have today for this Sunday at church with atheists, Jennifer and punk. We hope you have a blessed day.
IHIP News Podcast Summary Episode: "MAGA Christian Nuts Push Evil Project 2025 Plans With Trump's Help" Release Date: July 6, 2025
Introduction
In this scathing episode of IHIP News, hosts Jennifer Welch and Angie “Pumps” Sullivan delve deep into the alarming rise of extremist ideologies within the conservative Christian movement. Operating from a red state, the duo employs their trademark blend of humor and incisive commentary to expose the dangerous intersections of politics and extremist religious beliefs. The episode primarily focuses on the influence of MAGA-aligned Christian leaders and their alarming agendas for 2025, supported by former President Donald Trump.
Extremism on the Right vs. The Left
Jennifer and Pumps begin by contrasting the extremities found on both ends of the political spectrum.

Pumps (00:04): "On the left, the people who are considered the most extreme fight for something called democratic socialism... On the right, their extremists have become mainstream."
They contend that the right's extremism is exemplified by "psychotic, evil Christian nationalists," highlighting the dangerous rhetoric that has been emboldened within Republican circles.

They express horror at Webin's blatant racism and sexism, emphasizing the alarming normalization of such beliefs in American politics.
Critique of Representative Mary Miller

Pumps (03:00): "She wants to turn Pride Month into Family Month, and somebody needs to go tell her that LGBTQI plus people are members of families."

Pumps (06:45): "They want the Jews to be in Israel for the Rapture... get in your positions before our Lord and Savior comes and genocides you for all eternity."
The hosts condemn Bachman's interpretation of biblical prophecy, labeling it as dehumanizing and deeply offensive, especially given the historical context of Jewish suffering.
Religious Indoctrination and Its Societal Impact
Jennifer and Pumps explore the broader societal implications of religious indoctrination, particularly in evangelical Christian schools. They argue that these institutions perpetuate hatred and intolerance towards marginalized communities.
Pumps (04:04): "Evangelical Christian schools... indoctrinating... hatred towards the LGBTQ+ community."
