In her husband’s stead, WorldNetDaily’s Elizabeth Farah has been keeping up the website’s far-right politics, including sycophantic love of President Trump and vicious hatred of Joe Biden.
Farah kicked off her Oct. 30 video by declaring that a Biden presidency will bring “wickedness, tyranny, destruction that is unimaginable, at least to me.” She then went off on an article by pastor John Piper bashing Trump by pointing out that since he “models self-absorbed, self-exalting boastfulness, he models the most deadly behavior in the world. He points his nation to destruction,” and that Trump’s support of anti-abortion policies aren’t enough to warrant his support. (WND columnist Michael Brown also attacked Piper over this.)
In her lengthy response — the video runs an hour and 40 minutes — Farah declared that Piper’s comments “to not only be unconvincing, but — I’m going to say it — incoherent, dangerous, harmful and without proper and sufficient Biblical foundation,” adding that “if Piper’s influence with Christians affected the outcome of this election negatively for Donald Trump’s re-election, I believe Piper would be guilty of doing great harm.” She accused Piper of “erasing the distinction between greater and lesser sins, which is a form of Christian or Biblical relativism. … I’m asking myself, how many dead babies outweigh a boastful comment on Twitter by our president?” The ranting continued:
Secondly, Piper’s reasoning the manifold sinfulness of the entire Democratic Party leadership and its platform, and he doesn’t even address Joe Biden’s corruption and wickedness. Effectively, he turns a blind eye to their lying, their slander, covetousness, corruption, fraud, theft, oppression, prejudice, boastfulness, manipulativeness, conspiracy, sexual immorality as well, lawlessness, blasphemy against God, and you know — I mean, that’s a short list. So this party that has these extraordinary list of sins and Joe Biden its titular head — so long ago, I believe, we saw that they turned very much to the dark side.
Farah listed a group of Democratic politicians and huffed: “All these men and women, to a greater or lesser degree, have been complicit in attempting a coup d’etat of our country. they’ve been bearing false witness, devising conspiracies, slandering, perverting justice, speaking lies and hypocrisy, oppressing and persecuting innocent people in their vicious desire to circumvent the law and will of the American people who put Mr. Trump in to office, all to achieve the overthrow of our government and to eject President Trump from his presidency under the color and fiction of law.”
But isn’t that same thing what Farah’s WND did to Barack Obama throughout his presidency? Where’s her sincere repentance for that? Nowhere that we’ve seen.
Farah laughed as she noted that Trump “tweets things that would fall under the Sermon on the Mount admonitions by our Savior, to say it lightly. Then she played dumb about Farah’s amorality: “I don’t really know about Donald Trump’s supposed vulgarities and his boastulness and his so-called divisiveness.”
Responding to Piper’s contention that “It is naive to think that a man can be effectively pro-life and manifest consistently the character traits that lead to death — temporal and eternal,” Farah huffed, “the most pro-life president since there was such a thing needed. Mr. Piper, give me the name of one president in our history that was more effectively pro-life than Donald Trump. … After the appointment of three pro-life justices, I believe that Donald Trump’s tweets have not led to more death than the life that will be — that has been lost and the live will be saived if he continues in office, assuring good things in the courts.”
Farah then conducted a Nov. 2 interview Farah did with the messianic rabbi who was at one time WND’s would-be cash cow, Jonathan Cahn.
Cahn asserted that Trump’s election meant that “God gave us a window … an extension of time,” asserting that “it’s not about the personality, it’s not about the tweets, it’s about the issues,” which for both Cahn and Farah boils down to abortion. Cahn’s feed cut out during Cahn’s rant that Trump is “turning back death” while Democrats have “pledged to strike down the Hyde Amendment.” If Trump doesn’t get re-election, Cahn asserted, it could bring “not only a fall of the nation but also judgment.”
Farah once declared that it’s “Christian moral relativism” for Christians not to support Trump, to which Cahn responded by depicting Trump as a jerkass fireman who “might break a few things but he’s going to save your house.” Farah then went the Divine Donald route: “Going on your analogy, if I were literally going get my life saved from drowning, would I stop to say, are you a Sermon on the Mount kind of a guy, do you turn the other cheek? I want to make sure before I allow you save me and my children who are drowning next to me that you are right with God.” She later proclaimed that Trump is “God’s blessing on America.”
Cahn also ranted against the proposed Equality Act, misleadingly insisting that it means “government is officially not going to recognize gender, male and female. … Once this goes through, forget about Christian bakers, forget about Christian florists, forget about Christian photographers, that’s all gonna be wiped out. Also, there will be men, boys in girls’ rooms and in girls’ sports. … And it may come down to telling ministries and churches — ministries, you must hire those who are living blatantly against God for your ministry, which could mean the destruction of ministry.”
Needless to say, neither of them think Trump might have been sent by God as a harbinger, not a blessing.
