Sen. Lee Warns Of ‘Increased Hostility’ At Christians By DC

Aug 1, 2024


Republican Utah Sen. Mike Lee issued a warning to Christians Wednesday as he sees hostility increasing in Washington D.C.

“I think there is increased hostility toward Christianity, toward organized religion in general in Washington,” Lee told Tucker Carlson. (RELATED: Who Is J.D. Vance, Trump’s Vice Presidential Pick?)

“I’ve started seeing a couple of things that are disturbing that I never thought I would see, just in the last few years,” he continued. “I remember during the Trump administration, we started to see, for the first time ever, a couple of my Democratic colleagues, including some on the Judiciary Committee, who would say things like this: ‘I’m not comfortable with this nominee because I fear that the dogma lives loudly within her.’”

Are We Living In Extreme Times?

Lee was talking about late California Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein, who said during Justice Amy Coney Barrett’s 2017 confirmation hearing to the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that her Roman Catholic faith could interfere with her ability to remain impartial within her role. “She was afraid that she was too Catholic, and because the Catholic dogma, as she put it, ‘lives too loudly,'” Lee remembered. “I thought that was a little unsettling.”

There is apparently an apathy towards Christians who want to serve in government, Lee continued, despite the U.S. being historically Christian. “elative to not just the founding generation, but pretty much all generations of Americans until very recently, those who are hostile toward Christian beliefs or toward any belief system when it comes to somebody’s worthiness to serve in government,” Lee stated. “That’s historically aberrational. That’s extreme.”

“Culturally also, throughout most of our history, we have been a religious nation. We are still a religious nation,” he noted. (RELATED: Assassination Is ‘First Political Memory’ For Many Gen Z)
