Like angels from heaven, hundreds of “prayer warriors” have descended on Washington D.C. to undertake a crucial mission: protect U.S. President-elect Donald Trump by building a “prayer shield” around him ahead of his Jan. 20 inauguration.
Among these prayer warriors are the members of a new group called POTUS Shield (as in President of the United States) who gathered inside the National Press Club on Thursday, CBN News reported.
Pastor Eric Majette from Virginia Beach, Virginia said POTUS Shield is composed of pastors from all over America.
“We’re actually a prayer group. We pray for leaders across our nation — a group of pastors come together to pray for our nation and our leaders, particularly the new administration,” he said.
Okay. This is utterly pointless and useless, but I suppose it makes people feel like they are actually doing something. And I guess they’ll help to make it look like there are actual numbers at the widely spurned inauguration.
“Bikers for Trump” are also traveling to the nation’s capital to act as roaming peacekeepers.
The group’s founder Chris Cox told Fox News, “We’re a force to be dealt with, we’re a political phenomenon,” but insisted they’re not a vigilante organization.
“In the event that we are needed, we certainly will form a wall of meat,” said Cox.
“What does that mean, ‘a wall of meat?’” the Fox and Friends hosts asked.
“We’ll be shoulder-to-shoulder with our brothers and toe-to-toe with anyone that is going to break through any police barriers, that’s going to be assaulting women, spitting on them, throwing things at them.”
A wall of meat. Lovely. Odd how they are focused on the idea of protesters breaking through barriers with the sole intention to assault women. Do they ever have that one backwards – women need protection from Prince Pussy Grabber Trump, not protesters. It’s rather pathetic that both these groups are so desperate in their wishful thinking that they are so needed.

So TheMeatWall is going to be protecting the Women’s March participants?
That’s nice.

I don’t think they know what they’re doing.

That picture makes me sick. The pretenciousness, the false piety, the posturing, the stupidity, all rolled up in one huge stupid package and put on public display for everyone to see “Look at me! I am the humbles one, I am the one talking to God!”
I will never, ever understand these people.

Prima facie evidence that evangelicals either don’t read the Gospels, or (perhaps) do read them but just aren’t interested in what they say.

The Meat Wall: Not two, but three of our famous flame-grilled all-beef patties topped with fresh lettuce, tomatoes, mayonnaise, crunchy pickles, onions and melted cheese.
For a limited time only at Burger King. Get yours today!

You’re missing a few patties.
And now I’m hungry.
