This detail from the NYT obit of disgraced and resurrected televangelist Jim Bakker, and his oldest pivot in the book www.nytimes.com/2026/10/05/u...

The new ministry was low-key compared with that of the Bakkers’ high-flying PTL days. Its focus was different, too. The end of days was nigh, Mr. Bakker now preached, and he offered viewers what he said they would need to ride out the Apocalypse: long-lasting food, 10 buckets of it for $600 plus shipping costs. His message had a bluntly conservative political cast. “God has called” Donald J. Trump, he said. Barack Obama “sounded like the representative for Antichrist,” he said in 2016, and Hillary Clinton was “a bride of Satan.”

Grift grift grift Hegseth puts the future of warfare in the hands of major Maga donors www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

The 34-year-old Palmer, whose company is backed by Joshua Kushner’s equity fund, has acquired manufacturers of underwater drones, UAVs, and space technology, has been already been voluble about his philosophy on warfare. Earlier this year, for example, he said he thought warfare in the second half of this century would involve “subterranean” conflict, with vehicles that can “move through he crust of the earth the same way that submarines move through the water”.

He has claimed that his company has “working prototypes of subterranean systems”.

Post from Media Matters for America:

Fox & Friends co-host Lawrence Jones on Ms. Rachel: This is “pure indoctrination” and “really sinister.”

On Wednesday, Pete Hegseth announced the creation of a new entity within the Pentagon: the Office of Religious Affairs. 

The office will “sponsor and oversee research, technology, and analytical tools to support and assess spiritual fitness, spiritual readiness, and spiritual resilience.”
