Thousands rally at Christian nationalist event in DC to ‘turn hearts back to God’

Jenny Donnelly, leader of anti-trans Don't Mess With Our Kids, bills first pre-election event as rallying call for mothers

Tens of thousands of Christians poured onto the National Mall on Saturday to atone, pray and take a stand for America - which, in their view, has been poisoned by secularism and must be ruled instead by a Christian god.

Summoned to Washington DC by the multilevel marketing professional-turned-Christian apostle" Jenny Donnelly and the anti-LGBTQ+ celebrity pastor Lou Engle, they streamed onto the lawn holding blue and pink banners emblazoned with the hashtag #DontMessWithOurKids - a nod to the myth that children are being indoctrinated into adopting gay and transgender identities.
