The Stupid, It Burns: Former Minnesota congresswoman and Christian extremist Michele Bachmann claims that “transgender Marxists” are “seeking to overthrow” the U.S. government, just like the Bible predicted.
Bachmann, appearing on televangelist Kenneth Copeland’s “The Victory Channel” last week said:
Antifa is, if you go to their website, their materials, they are directly traceable to the Communist Party because their goal is the overthrow of the United States government and to bring communism into America. Just like Black Lives Matter, this is not a new movement either. On their website, these are transgender Marxists, transgender Black Marxists who are seeking the overthrow of the United States and the dissolution of the traditional family.
What people need to understand is that 103 years ago, there were no communist countries in this world. But this same idea where you have a pretext, you create something—like right now the pretext in America is race wars, that we’re seeing race wars on America’s streets—what this is is a cover to bring about communism and a communist takeover. It happened in communist China. It happened in Venezuela, many countries. What people need to understand, the viewers, is that we currently right now are in a situation where communists are trying to come in and take over America.
Bachmann continued:
You say, ‘Aren’t you a little overheated? Isn’t this melodramatic?’ This is exactly what a communist revolution looks like. They think they’re going to do it by electing Joe Biden and then once Joe Biden is elected, they think that these Davos, Switzerland, meetings that go on, they think that what they’re going to do is have the United States’ economy collapse, move to a digital currency globally, and then we move into a global-type government. I mean, it’s bizarre, but this is their goal.
Bachmann concluded:
For people who know their Bible, this is exactly what the prophets told us. So, we stand on the word of God, the Bible, and we say, ‘Satan, flee, we’re going to stand on the truth of God.’ And so that’s why now more than ever, between now and the election, what we need to do is pray and cry out to Almighty God and ask for his protection over America and to speak in this election.
This is not the first time Bachmann has made over the top claims. Last year Bachmann made headlines after claiming that she’s never seen a more “godly” or ‘biblical” president than Donald Trump.
Previously, Bachmann served as part of President Trump’s Evangelical Advisory Board, providing “support” to Trump on “issues important to Evangelicals and other people of faith in America.”
More recently, Evangelical leaders have been pushing Trump to name Bachmann as the next ambassador to the United Nations.
Bachmann is a controversial figure, and a dangerous Christian extremist. In the past, Bachmann has:
- argued that immigrants should be indoctrinated into “America’s predominant Christian religion;”
- attributed the United States’ success to the Ten Commandments while claiming that U.S. lawmakers stand “under the authority” of the ancient biblical figure Moses;
- claimed that gays promote child rape, and pedophilia;
- claimed that God uses terrorist attacks to humiliate President Barack Obama.
And last year Bachmann made the absurd claim that climate change is “fake news” because God promised Noah there would be no more floods.
Bottom line: Former Rep. Michele Bachmann claims that “transgender Marxists” are “seeking to overthrow” the U.S. government, just like the Bible predicted.
