Dinesh D’Souza, a Christian apologist, calls Bill Barr an overweight, immobile, “Fatso.”

John Fea   |  June 14, 2022

Dinesh D’Souza is the former president of a Christian College and the author of What is So Great About Christianity. He is also a financial huckster who needed a Trump pardon. His version of “Christian” politics was on full display yesterday on Twitter.

During Monday’s January 6th Select Committee hearing, former U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr criticized D’Souza “election fraud” movie “2000 Mules.” (The movie has been widely panned–even by conservatives).

Here is Barr:

D’Souza responded today on Twitter:

Bill Barr is the stereotypical small-town sheriff, overweight and largely immobile, whose rank incompetence results in the whole town being robbed from under his nose. Then, asked to explain how it happened, Fatso breaks into laughter and insists the robbery itself is “bullshit”

Here is more:

I’ve been thinking about Bill Barr’s sycophantic laughter before the Democrats, and it reminds me of fat boys in my school in India who were always laughing. I suspect the reason was twofold: 1. They couldn’t fight and 2. They couldn’t run

D’Souza is a regular on the evangelical megachurch and media circuit. I wonder what the pastors and hosts who invited him to speak in the last few years think about his comments today. I imagine some of them love his comments. I would not be surprised if some of them invite him back. Let’s look at some of D’Souza’s recent appearances among evangelicals:

Here is D’Souza at Emmanuel Enid Church in Oklahoma. (Pastor Wade Burleson says that the Lord is working through Dinesh):

Here is D’Souza in 2018 at Liberty University:

Here is D’Souza with the pastor of Cornerstone Church in San Antonio, Texas. (Pastors John Hagee and Matt Hagee):

Here D.Souza makes the “case for Christianity” at Emmanuel Enid:

And let’s not forget D’Souza’s many appearances with Eric Metaxas:

Sadly, this is what passes for Christian politics today in some circles.

    Jack Hibbs made a big deal out of showing “2,000 Mules” at his church.

    My dad, who was the kindest Christian gentleman I have ever known, would be saddened to hear what passes for Christian rhetoric in the church today.

    John, I don’t know what’s worse, their hypocrisy and outright hatred that has obliterated the American church’s witness or the fact that the grown ups just let them be bullies and wrong with zero consequences.
