California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) joined other Democrats in mocking the idea of prayer in the wake of the mass shooting at a Catholic school in Minneapolis this week, noting that the children were praying at the time.
In a post on X, responding to White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt’s claim that “prayer works,”, Newsom said: “There children were literally praying as they got shot at,” implying that prayer does not work.

Gavin is just upset that the kids weren’t praying to the same entity that he serves....
(Satan).
Why say such things? Did he think it would get him cred with people who dislike him?
Atheists are always desperate the prove to themselves that there’s no God. They do this by trying to convince others that if there was a God, bad things wouldn’t happen. Although they claim to not believe in God and have no religion, they just have a religion of a different kind based on mockery and blasphemy.
“Why say such things?”
Because what Gavin thinks he knows about Christianity simply shows Christian that he doesn’t have a clue about Christianity.
Newsom manages to jump onto the 5% side of a 95/5% split. Again.
Christians also pray at their time of death when they know it is coming, I think we can assume that all martyrs were praying as they endured their horrible deaths.
This guy doesn’t understand prayer but I bet he has used professed Christian faith in his political life, I also bet he used it in a different way than his mocking of it now.
Ya, that’ll get you more votes Danced On Ashes.

What
A
Moron.
All the lefties he has are gonna vote for him regardless, he won’t win MORE lefties this way.
No.
All this does is push those on the left revolted by this bile to the right , losing their votes.
And it sure won’t gain him the undecided.
What
A
Moron.
And when he loses he’ll throw a gigantic Hillary fit.
I haven't been keeping the list up for several months. Traveling initially, but it's time consuming and I'm not sure there's a need for it, articles seem to be seen, so I probably won't, however this from a leading Democrat is worth comment

Prayer when staring death in the face, not that unusual. Except in the Church of Gavin't DNC. I hope a reporter asks him why he's demeaning the memory of millions of Jews who met their deaths by gunfire or gas last century. I've no doubt prayer was on many lips. As it was on the lips of non Jewish victims. Interesting, I've not heard him condemn terrorists who meet their death howling Allah Akbar. I'll be asking this question of my liberal Christian and Jewish friends. And yes, many liberals are religious.
Newsome is just as sick in the head and in the heart as that mass shooting tranny.
He has killed more people than that tranny did.
👍👍
Newsom is a lounge lizard
He is a narcissistic person. More and more visibility this last year and that is fueling his ego.
Ego takes over rational thought

I find it funny that liberals on their death beds reach out to Jesus to seek forgiveness.
“...mocking the idea of prayer in the wake of the mass shooting at a Catholic school in Minneapolis this week, noting that the children were praying at the time.”
So did Christ on the cross.

God or not, we all have regrets. Atheism offers no mechanism to deal with it.
He needs a stay in Van Nuys Behavioral Health Hospital for testing.
Not exactly. Gov. Hand Jive recently decided to portray himself as a "tough on crime" demonicRAT by increasing police presence in some Commiefornia cities . That is not popular with his debased base so this is a sign to them that deep down inside he's still one of them. He needs to transition from demonicRAT to Republican and back again until he's in The White House. At which time he can shed that nasty Republican cloaking and be his true demonic self.
