Episode Description

The IRS just made a quiet but explosive decision: it will no longer enforce the Johnson Amendment, effectively giving churches a tax-free license to play politics. Frank and Dan break down how this opens the floodgates for dark money, bribes disguised as “donations,” and full-blown corruption in America’s pulpits.

Also this week:

  • The bizarre satanic panic over viral Labubu dolls
  • Baylor University rejects LGBTQ research funding after backlash
  • A church publicly shames an abuse survivor
  • Pope Leo XIV keeps same-sex blessings—but is it really progress?
  • Catholics promotes a convicted child rapist priest in France
  • And pandemic relief funds mysteriously flow into a Catholic trade school

It’s religion, politics, and jaw-dropping hypocrisy—served with a side of laughter and disbelief.
