EXPOSED: Iowa Democrat ATTACKS Christianity, Links Faith to 'Political Violence' in Shocking Church Speech

Iowa Democrat House candidate Sarah Trone Garriott has been caught on record making outrageous claims about Christianity, linking the faith to 'political violence' during a 2023 speech at a Methodist church that has patriots across America shaking their heads in disbelief.

In remarks that would make even the most radical leftist blush, Trone Garriott expressed her 'discomfort' with public displays of Christianity and politics together – apparently forgetting that America was founded on Judeo-Christian principles by men who openly invoked God's guidance.

But it gets worse, folks. This Democrat candidate had the audacity to claim that so-called 'Christian nationalism' – the left's latest boogeyman phrase – began with the beloved Rev. Billy Graham, a man who brought millions to Christ and counseled presidents from both parties for decades.

Anti-Christian Bigotry on Full Display

Think about the sheer arrogance here. Trone Garriott stood in a Methodist church – a house of God – and essentially told the congregation that their faith becomes dangerous when it intersects with their civic duties as Americans. This is the same crowd that celebrates every other religion under the sun but treats Christianity like a disease.

The left's war on Christianity has reached a new low when Democrat candidates are comfortable attacking faith from the pulpit itself.

Rev. Billy Graham dedicated his life to spreading the Gospel and bringing people together in Christ. To suggest this giant of the faith was somehow responsible for 'political violence' is not just historically ignorant – it's morally reprehensible.

The Real Agenda Exposed

This isn't really about 'Christian nationalism' or political violence. This is about the left's desperate attempt to shame Christians into silence, to make believers feel guilty for letting their faith guide their votes and their voice in the public square.

Under President Trump's leadership, we've seen a renewed respect for people of faith and their constitutional right to participate fully in American democracy. Democrats like Trone Garriott represent everything that's wrong with their party's anti-Christian bigotry.

How long will Christians in Iowa tolerate candidates who view their faith as a threat to democracy? The answer should be crystal clear come election day.

This is why we need to vote these radical Democrats out of office. They hate everything America was built on - faith, family, and freedom.

The war on Christianity continues. First they removed prayer from schools, now they're calling us violent extremists.

Unbelievable that a politician would attack Christianity in a CHURCH of all places! What's next, going to synagogues to attack Judaism?

I've lived in Iowa my whole life and attended church every Sunday for 40 years. Never once have I seen political violence promoted from the pulpit. This Democrat is spreading dangerous lies about people of faith.

Same here! My pastor preaches love, forgiveness, and community service. Nothing violent about it.

Absolutely disgusting! Christians are the most peaceful, charitable people I know.

This is exactly what we've been warning about for years. The radical left won't stop until they've completely demonized Christianity and traditional values in America.

You're absolutely right. They're going after faith because it's the foundation of our country.
