Republican Rep Says There Is a King in America, Actually

After the massive No Kings protests nationwide, Republicans have dropped their facade of caring about democracy or the Constitution.
Republican Representative Chip Roy took some time on Monday to remind Americans that his party still has no regard for the separation of church and state, something the Founding Fathers they love to praise cared deeply about.
"The truth is, the Marxists, the radicals, and the Islamists the Democratic Party promoted this weekend, they cannot handle the truth," Roy said, referring to the widespread No Kings protests on Saturday. "And the truth is that there is a king, and that king is Jesus. And the president has been willing to say it. His administration has been willing to say it. And Charlie Kirk was willing to say it, and he got killed for it."

Roy sounds like a crazed individual who has not read much of the Bible or the U.S. Constitution. And he seriously misrepresents the makeup of the No Kings protests in the process, sticking to the party script of it being a haven for antifa-loving Communists rather than a very peaceful gathering of Americans closer to the political middle of this country.
We are not a theocracy; Jesus Christ is not the king of America. There is an entire clause in the First Amendment aimed at curtailing the very speech Roy put forth on Monday. As Thomas Jefferson put it: "I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should 'make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,' thus building a wall of separation between Church & State."
Roy and his fellow Republicans may be too deep in their religious psychosis to take heed.

Now if we can just get Trump to bow down to the teachings of Jesus.
LOL! You're cute, John. He will never subjugate himself to accept Jesus as his King
sea of humanity at Chicago No Kings protest
video
(3) Brian Krassenstein on X: "Here’s a time lapse of Chicago yesterday at the No Kings Protest. Let me guess, MAGA, this too is an “old video” and this didn’t actually happen, right? 🤣 https://t.co/WjtV8XhjJL" / X
With tax paid educators inciting the crowd to kill ICE. Typical.
some MAGA moron posted this
I guess this an attempt to own the libs.

DiCaprio's character in this movie was one of the most vile racists ever put on screen.
The United States is NOT a country of atheists. Only 5% of the US population claim to be atheists. Allowing that 5% to hold the country hostage is NOT democracy.
Is Jesus the king of America? That is a yes or no question .
Jesus is supposed to be King of Heaven. So, no, Jesus is obviously not king of the United States because there are too many shitholes to be considered heaven on Earth. King of America is something else entirely. I don't know if Jesus is King of America but it is certainly possible.
In common parlance America and the United States are synonymous.
Yeah, yeah, sure. And a man in a dress is a woman. From what we've heard lately, al lot of people believe America is located somewhere in south China. Or Ukraine. Or Palestine.
Jesus wore, "robes", which one could easily call dresses.
The USA didn't exist in Jesus' time. The USA is a secular nation, a nation of laws, that has no 'national religion'.
A secular nation with rights created and endowed by God, not man.
Did Jesus wear panties? Bra? Lipstick? Mascara? Was Jesus a real manly liberal woman?
Prove it.
By any measure, Jesus was a liberal.
This isn't one you're going to win Nerm...
The Declaration of Independence and the COTUS both say "creator" not God.
My creator(s) are my parents
Therein lies the problem. It's all about winning. Right, wrong, or indifferent the whole point is to win.
Which means the whole thing is nothing more than a game. It doesn't matter how much damage is done -- a win is a win.
Your creator was a tiny mammal that survived the last extinction event. According to evolutionary history provided by science, humans are little more than viruses.
So? They're still my parents
Can't refute what I said about the DoI or the COTUS so you have to insult my parents.
Jesus revered God's law and preached sacrifice and subservience to God's law. Jesus did not advocate for personal freedom, individual choice, or self gratification. Jesus did not challenge authority; Jesus wielded the true authority of God over phony liberals.
OMG...quit with the proselytizing
Who's proselytizing? It's all about winning.
The Declaration of Independence was written by a deist who believed in a God but not necessarily the Abrahamic God. And the COTUS doesn't mention a creator.
No where is there any mention that these rights are granted by man or by government. (Although the slavers certainly believed men had dominion over the rights of others.)
How does the science of evolution insult your parents? You made the claim that the rights of life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness are a birthright granted by progenitors. And the progenitor of humans was a ground rodent who survived the last mass extinction event. Does that mean we should worship nuts?
That is a bizarre comment.
Jesus, god et al are toothless, useless, futile creations of man incapable of shooing a fly away but somehow capable of scaring the weak into compliance with the orders of other humans who fully embrace this dichotomy.
that's not proselytizing?
we're done here, Nerm. Try to have a better day
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
I thought liberals constantly bellyached about failure to abolish slavery in the Constitution? So where are the endowed rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness in the preamble?
Which is it? Or is this just throwing crap to see what sticks?
Your comment is utterly ridiculous. So much for rationality. Nice defection and double talk though. The crap you're flinging must have oozed out of one of His Royal Highness Trump's videos.
We're supposed to ignore the 5 decades of griping about the Constitution not banning slavery because of endowed rights just so you can claim the Constitution was man's rights for man?
The position you have taken is that slavery is justifiable because men chose it to be so. Men make rights -- men can take away rights. And secular courts have the final say.
And you dare to lambast Trump?
That is, to put it mildly, libelous and could not be further from the truth. It's hard to believe someone could post a comment that stupid. Pitiful.
Was Charlie Kirk a radical Christian? Is Chip Roy a radical Christian ? In Roy's mind Christianity is opposed to the Democratic Party. He says it.
Roy can shove it.
HARD
Religion is the real fake news.
