@DJJenkins How much damage do you do to the SBC’s reputation and the cause of Christ by exaggerating the level of claims of sexual abuse that the left loves to beat us back into submission to the secular narrative that you appear to try to please.
I genuinely might be one of the most slandered figures in the SBC.
But that's okay, because the issues we staked out with @BaptistLeaders, and even before that existed, have been the issues that *everyone* in the SBC has to talk about and address.
> The fake "abuse crisis" and its political weaponization - we've won on that narrative
> The radical Leftism of Russell Moore and Brent Leatherwood and the mismanagement of the ERLC - we won on that, Leatherwood isn't there anymore, and the ERLC is going to radically change, or it's over
> the Women pastors crisis - @AmReformer backed Mike Law, the one year he actually *won* (without any help from leading figures), and then CBL has helped keep the issue alive every year since
> the need for financial transparency from our entities - we are slowly but surely winning on that, it's not going away any time soon
> rooting out wokeness and anti-White racism/pro-CRT garbage at our entities. That's coming to an end, too
And on and on. And of course, it's not just us, many other orgs and people work on these issues, but there is something about how *I* get treated in the public discourse.
We are winning. It's come at great personal cost, but nonetheless, we are winning.
CBL hosted one of the largest affinity group side-events at the SBC two years in a row, both in 2024 when we *doubled* the attendance that the ERLC had at a concurrent event, and again in 2025 with another huge gathering.
We aren't doing a big event this year for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is that I lost almost the entire month of May dealing with major issues on the home front and caring for my wife as she was in and out of the hospital multiple times with postpartum complications.
But ignore, mock, and belittle me at your own peril, gents.
The moderates and liberals in the SBC know they can't win on the issues, so they pivot immediately to personal attacks. Which is what happened even today.
The truth is that, for months now, Josh Powell's supporters have said far, far worse things about me than I have ever said about Powell.
I challenge anyone to find anything other than manly, fair disagreement with his vision of and for the SBC in anything we've published at CBL or anything I've said on my personal account.
Many of the lines of attack impugn my motives, question my faith, mischaracterize my political views, or are just "guilt by association."
Hypocritically, the attacks come from the same side and from the same voices that bemoan "online negativity." That goes out the window as soon as they come after someone to their Right, of course.
It's definitely tiresome. And there's no doubt these bad actors have had some success in trying to paint me outside of the bounds of "acceptable conversation partners" in the SBC.
And when they can't do it themselves, they recruit SPLC-funded Leftists like Phil Williams to do it. Yawn. Get better material.
I'm sorry, the political activists on the moderate and Left wing of the SBC aren't just going to get a free pass to reshape the SBC into their soft-woke image.
We are going to fight for a better, more biblical, and actually Baptist SBC.
And we are going to win.
INDIA JUST PUBLISHED THE EXACT LIST OF WHAT THEY WERE SELLING TO GET INTO AMERICAN WORKPLACES
Not vague fraud. Not "some bad actors." NAMED CREDENTIALS. SPECIFIC INSTITUTIONS. Field by field.
🇮🇳 Medicine — fake medical degrees sold to applicants seeking hospital jobs in the US, UK, France, and Canada
🇮🇳 Nursing — counterfeit nursing certificates with fake seals, fake holograms, fake registrar signatures
🇮🇳 Engineering — forged engineering credentials specifically engineered to pass employer verification
🇮🇳 One institution — 36,025 fake degrees sold while awarding only 5,455 real ones
🇮🇳 Price per fake credential — as little as $1,400
🇮🇳 Total seized — 100,000+ counterfeit certificates from 22 universities
🇮🇳 Suspects arrested — 11, across multiple Indian states
🇮🇳 Estimated fakes still in circulation — 1,000,000
🇮🇳 H-1B approvals going to Indian nationals — 71% of all approvals in FY2024
🇮🇳 H-1B holders who ended up in junior or entry-level positions — 83% during Biden's term
💀 11 arrests
💀 22 universities implicated
💀 ZERO of the credentials targeted military bases or government facilities
💀 100% civilian workforce infiltration — hospitals, engineering firms, tech companies
Every credential on this list was designed to place someone in a job that requires skills they never actually proved they had. Not contractors. WORKERS IN AMERICAN WORKPLACES.
Ken Paxton's investigation is still running. These are the credentials it was built to find.
I'll keep you updated. Turn on notifications. 🚨
You know who you’ll never see say things like this?
The heads of any Islamic states about Christians.
My contempt for this soulless man is exceeded only by my contempt for Obama.
The full clip from the Obama town hall while I was in college in 2009.
Plus commentary from one of my heroes in the conservative movement.
Listened to him every day. I still remember hearing great Grandma say “Rush is on”.
God bless Rush Limbaugh. 🇺🇸🎙️
@johnrich@Real_RobN Also consider several of the young people that were competing on American Idol this year. They were great young Americans with solid character.
