Joni Ernst used a cemetery as a political prop this weekend — invoking Jesus’ name to defend Medicaid cuts in a billionaire-friendly bill backed by Donald Trump. I wasn’t planning to post tonight, but when politicians mock death and take the Lord’s name in vain, silence is not an option.
This isn’t just bad politics — it’s a blasphemous distortion of Christian faith. In this video, I unpack why Ernst’s “we’re all going to die” line wasn’t just flippant — it was deeply unchristian. We look at what Jesus actually did when faced with death in John 11 — and contrast that with the cold, cruel nihilism on display.
This is a call to Christians of conscience: stop excusing cruelty in Jesus’ name. If we don’t name this stuff for what it is — spiritual mockery dressed in patriotic camouflage — who will?
