1:03:13Now PlayingWhat would America look like under a Christian nationalist government?
According to Pastor Douglas Wilson – who preached at Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth’s Pentagon earlier this year – that would mean repealing the 19th Amendment, barring non-Christians from voting, and not only ending gay marriage, but expelling the states that try to uphold it.
In this ‘Mehdi Unfiltered’ interview, Mehdi gets into a HEATED debate with Wilson over whether the U.S. was ever meant to be a Christian nation. Mehdi also challenges Wilson on his vision for America, as well as his controversial views on slavery – which Wilson has described as a “relationship based upon mutual affection.”
