While commenting on President Donald Trump's very public support for Christianity, as well as the frequent Bible studies and prayer gatherings held at the White House, evangelical Pastor Paul Begley said first lady Melania Trump demanded that the White House be spiritually cleansed and that pagan, demonic items and artificats from the Obama and Clinton years be removed.
Melania Trump reportedly said, "I’m not going to go into that White House unless it has been completely exorcised," according to Pastor Begley. One thing was left, a cross on the wall. "They cleansed the White House," he said. "They had people in there anointing it with oil and praying everywhere.”
Pastor Begley made his remarks during the Feb. 2 edition of Weekend Vigilante, hosted by Sheila Zilinsky.
“I have to say, when the president allowed 40 pastors to come in to the White House and anoint him with oil and lay their hands and pray on him—seven times he’s done this—that is unheard of,” Begley said. “We haven’t ever – the guy’s got flaws, we all do. But at least he is humble enough and recognizing that he needs God enough that he keeps bringing them in for the prayer."
"And I’ve got to say this, it might have started with the first lady," said Begley. "I’m just being honest with you."
“The first lady, in that five hours when the Obamas and the Trumps went down to the Capitol and Trump was being sworn in as the 45th president of the United States,” Begley claimed, “Melania Trump said to her husband – she said, ‘I’m not going to go into that White House unless it has been completely exorcised.'”
He continued, “Because apparently during the eight years when Obama was there, and maybe even some of the presidents before him, there were all kinds of idol gods and images and all kinds of artifacts in there that were demonic, even some of the stuff from the Clinton era because they were really tied in with the Haitians."
"I can tell you, you can read the Serpent and the Rainbow story and find out just how much Haitian witch-doctor influence was on Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton’s lives," said Pastor Begley. "They constantly went back there. They spent their honeymoon with a witch doctor. Who does that?"
According to the Washington Post, the Clintons did go to Haiti for their honeymoon in 1975. The Post further reported, “They toured the old hotel where the writer Ernest Hemingway once stayed and visited a voodoo high priest dressed in all white.” The article does not say why they visited the voodoo high priest.
"They decorated their homes with Haitian art," said The Post. "They flew back again and again. Hillary Clinton once said that theirs was a 'Haiti-obsessed family.'"
In his book, My Life, Bill Clinton explained that he and Hillary attended a voodoo ceremony where an alleged "spirit arrived," participants rolled flaming torches over their bodies and walked on hot coals and, at one point, a person bit off the head of a chicken.
Pastor Begley then related that the first lady apparently said, "'You’ve got to get all of that out of there and send in some preachers and priests'" – she wanted priests or anyone -- to go in and cleanse the White House or, ‘I will not spend one night in it.'”
The president did, said Begley. "There were people in there packing up every idol. The only thing that was left, Sheila, was one cross on one wall. They cleansed the White House. They had people in there anointing it with oil and praying everywhere.”
“This was a major spiritual – it might sound like overdoing it, a little excessive," he said, "but you’ve got to take the seat of authority when you go into spiritual warfare. You start with the spiritual authority and then it goes on from there out. I think that that might have been where this whole thing began, in a mighty way of exorcising the demons.”
CNSNews.com contacted Pastor Paul Begley and asked for more information about the spiritual cleansing. Begley said his source for the story was close to "those working in the White House" and requested that he (or she) not be named.
In an email to CNSNews.com, Pastor Begley said, " I was not there, but a close source to those working in the White House revealed to me that the 'Spiritual Cleaning' did take place before the First Lady would feel comfortable living at the White House. All religious artifacts from former administrations were removed expect for 1 cross on 1 wall in the White House. Also Prayer Meetings were established in the White House for prayer and devotions. I was requested to (not reveal my source)."
Melania Trump is a Catholic. Her husband, President Donald Trump, is a Presbyterian. The two were married in an Episcopal church in 2005. When Melania came down the aisle she was holding a Catholic rosary and a vocalist was singing the Ave Maria, reported the Washington Post.
Having a home blessed by a priest is a standard practice among Catholics, especially if there is any concern that anything unholy may be in or have occurred in the home or on the property in the past.
In his many prayer meetings, President Trump reportedly has welcomed evangelical Protestants, Catholics and Jews.

I would be leery of doing business with anyone wishing a blessing removed from a building.
.
Sheila Zilinsky the gal on whose show Pastor Nutjob went is also a complete loon.
I think they are constructs of the Democratic Party - like Al Gore’s friends the Westboro “Baptists” - and the Dove Outreach nut in Florida- whose sole purpose is to make Christianity and religious conservatives look bad.
How about some grumpy ole grandmaws?
Disgusting!
“pagan, demonic items and artifacts”
Those items were in Moochelle’s Christmas decoration boxes.
.
All it takes is one real man of Yehova to bring his blessing back.
Priests and Rabbis need not apply.
.
I don’t mind grumpy grammaws. I like the feisty ones. I just got a thing with mummies. It goes way back. :)
Welcome to My Nightmare
All I can say is that if anything, God forbid, ever happened to President Trump, I will be there for Melania. I’ll be there to take care of all her needs. Hey, it’s the least I can do.
I was making a joke (I think everyone recognized that.
Haitian history is crazy. Slaves revolted against the French rule and made a vow to dedicate the nation to Satan if the “God of this World” would help them to gain their freedom. With a little help from the USA, they were able to gain their independence from France. However, they had dedicated the nation to Satan, and they have to constantly pay the piper. How many nations on earth are solely devoted to Satan? This makes Haiti unique. The Clinton’s many visits to Haiti and Haitian witchdoctors (strange place for a honeymoon) may explain the Clinton’s meteoric rise to Political Power. It may also explain why Obama is always in support of the Clintons...
They know.

Have you forgotten Hillary’s christmas tree back in ‘93?
Decorated with condoms, syringes, inverted crosses, etc.
.
Not to mention Hillary's White House Christmas tree decorations. See Gary Aldrich's book "Unlimited Access" for descriptions and pictures.
p.s. I have an autographed (copy) and personal message from the author himself. He said he heard I was a "true patriot" from a cousin of his who I knew on an internet forum back in the day. :)
Maybe, but I don’t.
So somebody needs to share.
.
Right on!
.
IMO, some people are waaaaaaay too serious. Life is too short to be so fretful 24/7.
We're all in this together. Keep paddling. I hear banjos.
You have no knowledge of the Clinton’s (and Obama’s) association with Haitian witch doctors and the demonic, yet you make judgments. Have you ever been diagnosed with Dunning-Kruger?
Sounds like it to me, too.
This is Pastor Paul Begley.

Not familiar with him as unlike other pastors, he is not on tee vee asking for money. More than likely he owns no private jet either.
Good for Melania Trump. To exorcise the White House would be the first recommendation for any moving in after what we have had living in this sacred structure. We would suggest she have the place fumigated as well. Living in that abode might give the squeamish nightmares often enough to actually hinder day to day functions, activities and thought.
Her outer beauty begins from her heart. Mr. President, you do know you are a very fortunate man for having met her. Right? What more could we ask from a First Lady who has made USA her home? Bless you, Mrs. Trump.
