Doug Mastriano caught on video praying for MAGA to 'seize the power' during the days leading up to Jan. 6

A clip of a prayer led by Pennsylvania gubernatorial candidate Doug Mastriano is now circulating online.

According to Rolling Stone, the prayer meeting is said to have been organized by Jim Garlow, who is described as "a prominent figure in the far-right New Apostolic Restoration (NAR) movement." The prayer meeting reportedly aligned with Garlow's beliefs which center around the ideology of the government operating around biblical principles.

The controversial clip features Mastriano praying for the Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement to "seize the power" amid Republicans' pushback to overturn the outcome of the 2020 presidential election during the time leading up to lawmakers affirming the Electoral College vote.

In the clip, Mastriano can be heard saying, “We remember the promises of old,” he said, before invoking the book of Revelations and its account of the End Times: “We know we overcome Satan by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony and not loving our lives unto death.”

1. This is who they are

People like Mastriano truly believe that they are fighting a righteous crusade for God and that Democrats are the enemy who are minions of Satan. These people will not rest until they have exerted total domination in this country and forced their version of theocracy on the rest of us. They delude themselves with their scripture and twist the words and teachings to justify their actions.

2. That's a violent dog whistle so loud it's a bullhorn.

When will this idiot be held accountable for trying to incite violence?

3. Sounds like a call to religious crusade to me. War against

America. They assume they are the legitimate Americans because Jesus Christ is on their side in their minds. This is some scary shit.

4. I love it when they make their "prayers" a speech. Nothing about doing the will

of God or anything that was taught by Jesus in the bible. Just start it off with, "Oh God we pray" and end with "In Jesus's name" and everything is fine.

Hypocrites, all.
