Megachurch pastor who was invited to Trump’s White House declares New Zealand terror attack a ‘false flag’
Rodney Howard-Browne, a Trump-loving pastor who was invited to the White House to pray for the president in 2017, went off on a crazed Twitter rant on Friday in which he said that the massacre of 49 Muslims in New Zealand was part of a “false flag” conspiracy meant to silence conservatives.
“There is no doubt that what happened in New Zealand as horrific as it is, is a false flag that will be blamed on conservatives when it’s all said and done!” he wrote. “Only a total nutjob lunatic, insane demonized freak goes into a building and kills people, it’s unacceptable on every level!”
Shortly after calling the shooting a “false flag” attack, the pastor wrote about the right-wing conspiracy theory claiming that Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader-Ginsburg is actually dead, before then retweeting right-wing polemicist Dinesh D’Souza, who tried to downplay the significance of the New Zealand massacre.

Princeton historian delivers the definitive smackdown of Trump’s ‘insulting’ lynching tweet
Princeton University History Professor Kevin Kruse on Tuesday delivered a thorough takedown of President Donald Trump's claim that House Democrats' impeachment inquiry represents a "lynching."
In calling the tweet "twelve different kinds of bullsh*t," Kruse began by discussing the constitutional mechanics of the impeachment process in the House that only require a bare majority of lawmakers to favor in order to advance. Concerns about due process in impeachment only come into play in the Senate, where the president is ensured a fair trial and where two-thirds of lawmakers are needed to convict the president and remove him from office.
