Sharing the unhinged rantings and ravings of the Polk County Iowa Moms For Liberty. Spoiler alert: T

Things have been quiet since they discovered the mole in their group, but I can assure you, the ugly behavior continues--nay, has intensified--as they march in lockstep with our wannabe fascist state government.
Anyway, I was delighted to stumble across this gem of a website, dedicated to exposing the "faith leaders" of Donald Trump's Iowa c̶u̶l̶t̶ ̶m̶e̶m̶b̶e̶r̶s̶ fans: https://www.iowafaithleadercoalition.com/who
The author's takedown of Shellie Flockhart--she of the "abortion for me but not for thee" and convicted felon--is truly inspiring. (I guess convicted felons are drawn to each other.)
Shellie Flockhart is undeniably a “conservative influencer”, as she calls herself. She is all over the social media influencing scene. She posts a whole lot of memes online. Some are about Jesus. Some are about botox.

Shellie Flockhart also has strong associations with the Christian Nationalist political activist group Moms For Liberty, an organization that supports banning books in libraries across the country.

It’s obvious that Shellie Flockhart is motivated by a drive to get attention.
Perhaps adding her name to the Iowa Faith Leader Coalition, claiming to be a “ministry leader” and getting her picture taken with Donald Trump, is just another way for her to do that.

SHELLIE FLOCKHART DESCRIBES HERSELF AS “CHRISTIAN, SALON OWNER, MENTOR, CROSSFIT MEMBER, COSMETOLOGIST, MOM, FASHIONISTA, MEAL PREPPER, AND SO MUCH MORE!”
Shellie Flockhart is a lot of things, but there’s no evidence that she ever described herself as a “ministry leader”, at least not until Donald Trump asked her to add her name to his Iowa Faith Leader Coalition.
Out of nowhere, when the 2024 Iowa caucuses came around, Shellie Flockhart began to take on the label of “ministry leader”. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡?
Sure, Shelly Flockhart posts Christian memes on social media. 𝐒𝐡𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐬𝐨 𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐬𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐦𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐚 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐝 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐲 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐢𝐧𝐯𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐈𝐨𝐰𝐚.
“There are evil Satanic forces that are trying to infiltrate our state,” she says. “It's a very dark, evil force, and I truly hope people know how to battle that.”
Flockhart has not made clear exactly how she thinks Iowans should be battling against demons. Is garlic the best tool, or are pitchforks and torches called for?

Flockhart has recently issued a reminder that Jesus sometimes liked to get violent and attack people who dared to disagree with him. This reminder carries with it an implied warning that Iowa Christians might violently attack their critics in the same way. A favorite meme of hers reads: “If someone asks ‘What would Jesus do?’ remind them that turning over tables and breaking out whips is a possibility.”

These people shouldn't be taken seriously.
