Bribes, Blessings, and Broken Democracy
Episode 708
The IRS just made a quiet but explosive decision: it will no longer enforce the Johnson Amendment, effectively giving churches a tax-free license to play politics. Frank and Dan break down how this opens the floodgates for dark money, bribes disguised as "donations," and full-blown corruption in America's pulpits.
Also this week:
- The bizarre satanic panic over viral Labubu dolls
- Baylor University rejects LGBTQ research funding after backlash
- A church publicly shames an abuse survivor
- Pope Leo XIV keeps same-sex blessings—but is it really progress?
- Catholics promotes a convicted child rapist priest in France
- And pandemic relief funds mysteriously flow into a Catholic trade school
It's religion, politics, and jaw-dropping hypocrisy—served with a side of laughter and disbelief.
