Tony Evers dropped this on X yesterday—Divine Mercy Sunday, April 12, 2026:
“LGBTQ kids, including transgender and gender nonconforming kids, deserve our love, respect, and support just like any other kid. I will always be proud to stand with them.”
Spare us the fake piety, Tony. Divine Mercy Sunday is when the Church celebrates God’s infinite mercy, the blood and water from Christ’s side, and the call to trust in Jesus while rejecting sin and protecting the innocent. It’s the octave of Easter—pure resurrection hope and the sanctity of every human life from conception.
And what are you doing? Vetoing every bill that would shield kids from experimental hormones, surgeries, and boys in girls’ spaces. Same guy who sues to keep abortion on demand, celebrates activist judges gutting protections for the unborn, and vows to veto anything that slows the body count. You’ll “love, respect, and support” kids into chemical castration and surgical mutilation… but the unborn? Zero mercy, zero respect, zero support.
That’s not standing with kids. That’s psychotic selective compassion.
People, are you seeing the pattern staring you in the face?
This isn’t random. The radical left—the DFL machine here in Minnesota, their nonprofit grifters, the corporate funders, and the political syndicates looting our republic—have deliberately littered the calendar with “recognition days” and months that clash head-on with the Christian liturgical year. They pick dates that mock the Church’s focus on truth, redemption, sacrifice, and life itself.
• Transgender Day of Visibility is nailed to March 31 every year since 2009. It lands in Holy Week or right on Easter season more often than not—the very time we celebrate the Resurrection and the gift of life.
• Pride Month hijacks June—the traditional Month of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, a Catholic devotion to Christ’s burning love, humility, and mercy.
• Other visibility weeks and months crowd the rest of the year, weaponizing the language of “love,” “respect,” “mercy,” “charity,” and “inclusion”—straight out of the Christian playbook—to gaslight anyone who questions the madness.
Question the mutilation of confused minors? You’re “hateful.” Oppose aborting millions of babies? You’re “extreme.” Affirm that God made them male and female? You’re a bigot.
There’s a dark, dark irony here that reveals the true heart of the agenda. The same networks and ideology that screamed for every priest on earth to be locked up and destroyed over even the suspicion of looking at a child the wrong way—weaponizing the real sins of the Church’s abuse scandals to smear the entire faith—now turn around decades later and demand we tolerate and accommodate “minor attracted adults” (the sanitized term for pedophiles they call MAPs). They push “destigmatization,” frame it as just another “orientation” like the rest of the alphabet soup, and lecture us about compassion while defending the very harm they once condemned.
All their talk of “love and acceptance” is actually built on hate. Hate for God and His created order—male and female, life in the womb, authority in the family and the Church. Hate for themselves, rejecting the bodies and identities God gave them. Hate for legitimate authority that says “no” to self-harm and child endangerment. And in the name of being “loving and accepting,” they exercise a deep, self-loathing hatred toward the innocent: aborting them, sterilizing them, confusing them, and discarding them when it’s inconvenient.
This is intentionally anti-Christian because it rejects the Creator’s design for human sexuality, marriage, and the protection of innocent life. And by design, it’s anti-American—our constitutional republic was built on the self-evident truth that we are endowed by our Creator with the unalienable right to Life. When ending life and sterilizing the next generation becomes your highest sacrament, you’re not “progressing.” You’re looting the future, rigging the system against the innocent, and marching toward extinction.
Good and decent Minnesotans who follow Jesus Christ don’t want to be cruel. We want to love our neighbor, show real mercy, and speak truth in a world drowning in lies. But love without truth is just sentimentality that leaves kids scarred for life and society rotting from the inside. Real mercy doesn’t affirm self-harm. Real charity doesn’t celebrate the destruction of the most vulnerable.
As a retired U.S. Navy Lieutenant Commander, fraud whistleblower, father, farmer, teacher, administrator, and lifelong Minnesotan who believes in my Savior Jesus Christ, I’ve seen these networks up close—the same political, nonprofit, and corporate rackets that loot Minnesota through daycare fraud, COVID grift, election rigging, and now this child-endangering ideology.
Enough.
We’re exposing the full syndicate. Defunding the grifters. Dismantling the racket. And building a Minnesota where every child—born and unborn—is protected, families thrive, truth isn’t optional, and we live as the constitutional republic our founders intended: under God, with liberty and justice for all.
The pattern is impossible to miss. Good people don’t have to stay silent anymore. Push back. Speak truth. Vote like your kids’ future depends on it—because it does.
Time to choose life. Time to choose truth. Time to take Minnesota back.
