The "Jericho March" in Washington starts with the blowing of shofars.
The emcee for today's event is right-wing pundit Eric Metaxas rightwingwatch.org/post/eric-meta…
Metaxas has said "we need to fight to the death, to the last drop of blood" for Trump to win the election. mediamatters.org/charlie-kirk/r…
"God is going to move today," says Metaxas.
Now at the mic is MyPillow guy Mike Lindell, who has become a funder and folk hero for pro-Trump evangelicals, who said his relationship with Trump was by divine appointment
Mike Lindell now spouting Sidney Powell conspiracy theory that Trump was winning so many votes it "broke the alglorithm" designed to steal the election from him
Metaxas announces that Trump will be doing a helicopter flyover in Marine One.
Now up: Rob Weaver and Arina Grossu, cofounders of Jericho March who said the event was born of a "miracle" -- they God gave them both visions after Election Day about the need to get people into the streets to pray
Now up, right-wing activists and event sponsors Ali Alexander from Stop the Steal and Ed Martin from Phyllis Schlafly's Eagles.
"We're marching for God," says Alexander.
Now at the microphone, a Catholic priest who says he specializes in exorcism and deliverance. "Strike down the insidious foes that seek to destroy us," he prays. "Let God arise and his enemies be scattered."
Now up, former national security adviser Michael Flynn, who has called for Trump to declare martial law rather than admit defeat rightwingwatch.org/post/pro-trump…
Flynn on state with members of his family. He says they all "fight like Flynns."
"The courts do not decide who the next president of the United States will be," he says, "We the people decide." He says "there are paths still in play."
Flynn says the U.S. has never faced this kind of crisis. He says justice will triumph over "abuse and fraud." He says the "rule of law" in the U.S. is at risk.
"We are in a spiritual battle for the heart and soul of this country," Flynn says. "We will win. We will win."
"The media is doing an incredible disservice to this country," Flynn says.
Flynn says "nobody in this town" is fighting for Trump, ignoring the more than 100 Republican members of Congress who signed onto the Texas effort to overturn the election.
On a scale of 1 to 10, Flynn says his confidence that Trump will still be president next year is a 10. Nothing can overcome the power of prayer, he says.
"We're inside the walls of the deep state," Flynn says. "We're gonna knock those walls down."
Hard-right Archbishop Carlo Mario Viganò sent a video message to the #JerichoMarch saying, "We are the silent army of the children of light." "Thhttps://www.rightwingwatch.org/post/right-wing-catholic-bishop-praises-trump-for-fighting-biblical-battle-against-deep-state/
"The walls of the Deep State, behind which evil is barricaded, will come crashing down," Viganò says.
A Jericho March coordinator invokes Hanukkah, then pounds the podium with a gavel while leading chants of "No King but Jesus!"
We're about to get a "prophetic declaration" from Curt Landry
"One of the keys to spiritual warfare is strategic timing," Landry says, adding that the Mayflower pilgrims landed 400 years ago today.
"King David faced the same problem that we faced today," Landry says.
Now up, Tom Specialie from Veterans for Trump. He calls Trump the greatest president the U.S. has ever had. Specialie denounces the "deep state" for having "conspired" against Michael Flynn.
Metaxas introduces Alice Butler-Short, head of Virginia Women for Trump, which organized this morning's event at the Supreme Court. "We all prayed for a landslide victory and we got it!" she says
Surprise guest: Alex Jones! "Humanity is awakening, and Jesus Christ is King! ... God gave us Donald Trump"
Alex Jones scream-ranting about the Satanic globalists and microchips and the Second Coming of Christ. Says satantic forces are trying to steal the greatest victory and realignment since 1776.
"The enemy" wants to keep whorehouses open while shutting churches, Jones screams, who says "the state has no jurisdiction" over churches or "any of us."
"We will never back down to the Satanic, pedophile, globalist New World Order and their walking dead, reanimated corpse Joe Biden. And we will never recognize him." Alex Jones
"I don't know who's going to the White House in 38 days but I sure know this: Joe Biden is a globalist and Joe Biden will be removed, one way or another!" Alex Jones
Jones and his Infowars colleague Owen Shroyer urge people to head to the Supreme Court at 4pm. "We have been betrayed" by the Supreme Court and Republican Party and the mainstream media, Shroyer says, "but we will not be betrayed by God!"
Next up, "Stop the Steal" founder Ali Alexander, who calls the event "a signal to the Deep State that we're not going to tolerate a Joe Biden presidency."
Alexander says he has "a warning to the establishment: We will shut this country down."
Alexander shouts-out right-wing media outlets, encouraging crowd chants of "Fox News Sucks." He encourages Tucker Carlson to leave Fox for Newsmax.
"Stop the Steal is never going to stop," Alexander says. He says that if "heaven forbid," the Electoral College votes tomorrow for Joe Biden, the fight will go to Congress.
Alexander says Alabama Rep. Mo Brooks will object to House certification on January 6 and warns other Republicans to join him "or we will throw them out of office."
If no senator joins Brooks in objecting to certification of the Electoral College vote, says Alexander, "We will burn the Republican Party down."
Alexander says his movement will take over the Republican Party from the bottom up (this is the strategy the Religious Right used to build power in the 1990s)
"We are the people you must represent," Alexander said to the Republican Party," or they will be replaced by patriots. "We have God's favor," Alexander said.
Next up, Leon Benjamin, who says a "fresh anointing" is about to come on the U.S., saying Jesus "will rule in America!"
Now up, Kevin Jessip, who organized "The Return" rally in September which was supposed to save Trump's presidency.rightwingwatch.org/post/trump-emb…
Jessip said what is underway is a spiritual "battle cry" and "End Times mobilization" to dispel the kingdom of darkness and the "onslaught of wickedness"
Jessip praised Michael Flynn, saying "the very characteristics and attributes of our Lord Jesus Christ flow through that man."
"America shall not fall," said Jessip. "America shall be saved. God will rule and reign. Hallelujah! And let the army of the Lord say so!"
Now up, someone Metaxas introduced as a "Jewish patriot," which makes me wonder how he has felt about all the End-Times, "Jesus will reign in the U.S." rhetoric at today's rally.
This "patriot" complains about how tired he is of criticism directed at Trump supporters, who thought they could show up and vote. But after this election he says he no longer believes that voting is how we settle things in America.
"Why did we fight for three Supreme Court justices to have this nonsense last night," he said. "Really?"
Now on stage at the Jericho March, an Oath Keepers T-shirt worn by the head of the "Black Robe Regiment."
"God is about to do something," the Oath Keeper said. "This is our city ... We are the government of America."
Former Rep. Michele Bachmann addresses the #JerichoMarch by video, saying it's time to "go on offense" and believe that "a miracle is about to take place in the United States"
Bachmann, who has been praying for God to give Trump a second term, asks God for "a miracle"
Hey, did you know that America is the greatest, the very greatest, the super greatest? The great CJ Pearson was here to remind you with great repetition.
Conservative talker Rose Tennent from Pennsylvania: "We are in the biggest, greatest battle that we have ever faced in this nation, save the Revolutionary War. And this is a spiritual battle." Has she heard of Gettysburg?
Now up, Orthodox Christian reps at today's rally. George Michalopulos is blogger who recently praised a call for Trump to “crush his enemies” and “use his authority under the Insurrection Act to arrest and/or kill everyone who participated in this plot.”
"I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees," Michalopulos said. "On November 3, Donald J. Trump won the most resounding reelection victory in history and is in fact the duly elected president of the United States." He called Biden a "usurper."
Metaxas introduces anti-Muslim activist Frank Gaffney as one of the greatest patriots he's ever met. Gaffney uses his time to promote his latest project, Great America Party.
Gaffney spoke at this year's National Religious Broadcasters Christian Media Convention where his hosts discovered that he's a jerk rightwingwatch.org/post/anti-musl…
Gaffney knows that the music is meant to play him off stage, but he keeps talking anyway, even after his mic is cut. NRB coulda told you, folks.
Jericho March attendees were shown a video from Taylor Marshall, a right-wing Catholic YouTuber and promoter of conspiracy theories.
Marshall figured prominently in @kathrynajoyce
@VanityFair article “Deep State, Deep Church: How QAnon and Trumpism Have Infected the Catholic Church” vanityfair.com/news/2020/10/h…
Marshall's book "Infiltration," which described a communist and masonic plot to take over the Catholic Church as a means of achieving world domination, was even took much for many conservative Catholics.
"We are at war!" says the next speaker, Carla Dean Graves. "This is war!"
"We stand for freedom. We stand for God. We stand for country. We stand for Trump. Ladies and gentlemen, if we don't stand, we will kneel for tyranny..." says Graves, asking the crowd for a "war cry."
Anti-choice activist Abby Johnson says she's here to defend "the most pro-life president" in American history. Would that be the president who's rushing to execute as many people as possible on his way out the door?
Johnson decried Christian leaders who have "rolled over" and complied with public health restrictions on church gatherings meant to slow the spread of COVID-19.
"No matter what happens on January 20, I can tell you one thing right now: Joe Biden will never be my president. And I will spend every day of his fake presidency fighting against him and his radical anti-life, anti-God, and anti-family policies."
But, Johnson adds, she doesn't believe that's going to happen because she believes Trump will be president for four more years. She says she is tired of conservatives who won't fight and "spineless" religious leaders.
Right-wing propagandist Dennis Prager appears on video to describe American politics today as a spiritual struggle between Judeo-Christian America and totalitarian leftism.
Dominionist prophet Cindy Jacobs sent video greetings to the Jericho March. Jacobs has been part of recent prayer efforts asking God to put Trump back in office. rightwingwatch.org/post/michael-f…
Stuart Rhodes of the extremist group Oathkeepers urges Trump to use the Insurrection Act to "suppress this insurrection" and "show the world who the traitors are and then ... drop the hammer on them"
Rhodes told veterans that until age 65, "you can be called up as the militia to support and defend the Constitution." If Trump doesn't do it now as Commander-in-Chief, Rhodes said, "we're going to have to do it ourselves later in a much more desperate, much more bloody war."
Metaxas' response to Rhodes call for civil war: "This guy's keeping it real."
Pro-Trump "prophet" Lance Wallnau calls the Trump administration "a spiritual warfare presidency."
Wallnau said he had great hopes in the Texas lawsuit that the Supreme Court has rejected. "We know the election was stolen," he says
"This is the beginning of a Christian populist uprising," Wallnau has said.
Wallnau is a member of the leadership council of the dominionist POTUS Shield network rightwingwatch.org/report/potus-s…
Frank Pavone of Priests for Life asks God to give Trump one more victory over his enemies and "confirm him in his intention to eliminate corruption in our government." Trump eliminating corruption -- hahaha, good one, Father Frank.
Metaxas notes that Pavone called COVID-19 the "China flu" and says "the correct term is 'Kung Flu panda-demic.'" Bigotry is hilarious.

Right-wing Orthodox Christians are part of today’s “Let the Church ROAR” rally put on by “Stop the Steal” organizers, Trump administration staffers, and other right-wing activists. George Michalopulos, who blogs at Monomakhos, is listed as a speaker. rightwingwatch.org/post/right-win…
Michalopulos reposted a comment from Roosh V’s Twitter feed calling on Trump to refuse to step down, use the military to “crush his enemies,” and “use his authority under the Insurrection Act to arrest and/or kill everyone who participated in this plot.” monomakhos.com/one-of-the-gre…
“It really says it all, doesn’t it,” Michalopoulos wrote admiringly of the call for Trump to arrest leaders of the Democratic Party and Big Tech and “everyone of significance in the mainstream media.”

Organizers of today’s “Let the Church ROAR” rally include conservatives from different branches of Christianity. One right-wing Catholic set to speak is “traditionalist” Taylor Marshall, an author, YouTuber, and member of the advisory board of Catholics for Trump. (thread)
When a Catholic priest drew criticism for declaring that it was not possible for a Catholic to be a Democrat—as Joe Biden was on his way to become the second Catholic U.S. president—Marshall called the priest a “hero.”

After a long wait, pro-Trump protesters at the Supreme Court cheer and chant at the arrival of former national security adviser Michael Flynn, who has called on Trump to declare martial law rather than admit that he was defeated by Joe Biden
Flynn calls this "a crucible moment in our history" and tells people not to be too "bent out of shape" at recent SCOTUS rejection of Texas case, because there are still avenues being pursued.
Flynn says the Supreme Court doesn't decide who will be president, telling people they have to "demand" that state legislatures step up.

A motley group of religious-right leaders, right-wing activists, and Republican officials are descending on Washington, D.C. Saturday for overlapping and competing events meant to keep Trump in the White House. Here’s a quick guide (thread).
“Let the Church ROAR,” a “prayer rally” on the National Mall, is being promoted by “Stop the Steal” organizer Ali Alexander, Phyllis Schlafly acolyte Ed Martin, and organizers of “Jericho Marches” that have been taking place at state capitols. rightwingwatch.org/post/right-win…
In the morning, “Jericho March” activists will circle the US Capitol, Supreme Court, and Dept of Justice seven times, an allusion to a Bible story about God bringing the walls of Jericho down after the Israelite army marched around the city for seven days jerichomarch.org

Allow us to now begin to share just some of the things we have been collecting for years in anticipation of this moment.
Let's begin with MAGA life coach Brenden Dilley, brimming with confidence the day before the election as he predicted a 45 state landslide for Trump.
And here is Dilley guaranteeing that Democrats "are going to get their asses kicked on Nov. 3"

Time for a thread about anti-Semitism, the Trump White House, and Christian media
The Christian Broadcasting Network is promoting an interview with Mike Pence in which the VP denounces anti-Semitic rhetoric, which he claims has been heard “in the halls of Congress” and “has not been roundly and universally condemned, as it should be.” www1.cbn.com/cbnnews/politi…
“For people to traffic in anti-Semitic slurs and tropes and not be held to account for that, it’s just not acceptable,” Pence told CBN, calling for "constant vigilance" against the danger "allowing anti-Semitic rhetoric, let alone violence, to take place in our society”
