What Happened to the Threat of Christian Nationalism?

December 03, 2025 , ,

Not too terribly long ago, the American Left was warning us about the incoming "Christian theocracy" and the threat of "Christian nationalism." On MSNBC, a guest classified the memorial for Charlie Kirk as a "Christian nationalist" event. They said the same thing when President Trump loosened workplace rules for government employees concerning religious expression, and when an Alaska Air flight attendant told travelers to "have a blessed day."

Back in February, Democratic Rep. Jared Huffman (CA-02) said Speaker of the House Mike Johnson was taking a "sledgehammer to the wall between church and state" for attending the National Prayer Breakfast, a tradition dating back to the 1950s, and an event attended by former Presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden.

After Pope Francis died in April and the Catholic Church entered into the conclave to name a new Pontiff, President Trump posted a meme depicting himself as the Bishop of Rome. As a Catholic, I saw it for what it was: a troll, and a funny one at that. Leftists, of course, lost their minds and had a newfound respect for Catholicism that only seems to rear its head when they can use it to dunk on President Trump.

Senator Ed Markey (D-MA) is the latest Democrat to embrace a form of Christian nationalism that he and his fellow Democrats would balk at on any other day. 


We cannot be lectured by Democrats who support inherently evil things like abortion and transgender surgeries, nor should we tolerate such scolding. As with all things Democrat, don't look at what they say, look at what they do.

The Biden-Harris administration targeted Christians and traditional Catholics, classifying them as "domestic terrorists," they put several Christian pro-life activists in jail under an abuse of the FACES Act, they demand information from Christian pro-life pregnancy centers in transparent attempts to bully and intimidate donors (in an attempt to bankrupt and shutter such organizations), they don't believe in religious freedom when it comes to abortion, they kick Christians out of their rallies, they want to deny religious people government jobs, they use the full weight of the government to harrass religious business owners, and they ban Christian services on government property.

At the same time that Democrats were pearl-clutching over President Trump's AI-generated papal imagery, Democrats in Washington were waging an actual war on Catholicism and attempting to undermine the Seal of the Confessional, one of Catholicism's sacraments. They did this by pushing legislation that would force Catholic priests to report crimes revealed in confession to local authorities or face criminal penalties.

I didn't see a single Democrat decry this blatant and brazen violation of our Constitutional rights. Thankfully, Catholics beat back the attack on their faith, and Washington folded on that law. But that doesn't mean it won't rear its ugly head again.

In the meantime, cynical opportunists like Senator Markey have the audacity to quote scripture in an attempt to browbeat us into not only continuing unfettered illegal immigration, but to providing these interlopers with billions in taxpayer-funded benefits as they rape, murder, assault, and harm American citizens. The government has a duty to protect innocent life, as does Christianity. Democrats have no interest in doing the former, and want to use the latter to continue shrugging off their responsibilities.

In his eyes, our unwillingness and failure to fork over funds and tolerate crime means we're not true Christians. That couldn't be further from the truth, of course. Christians can, and have, cared for the poor and hungry for years — without the government footing the bill, in many cases. Because that's what actual charity is all about, and what actual Christianity does. And yes, it's not lost on me the utter hypocrisy of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) taking millions in taxpayer funds to help "resettle" illegals (then whining about it when that revenue stream ran dry).

That wasn't charity, either, and I notice Markey and his fellow Democrats didn't whine about "Christian nationalism" or the "wall between church and state" when the USCCB was doing their bidding and undermining federal law on our dime. And here I thought "Christian nationalism" and the impending "Christian theocracy" were threats so grave to America that the last administration had to classify us as terrorists.

It appears to Democrats that "Christian nationalism" is like Schrödinger's cat: it both is and isn't a threat, (D)epending on who is reading the Bible.

Funny how that works, isn't it?
