President Donald Trump spoke at the National Prayer Breakfast this morning, where he announced that his longtime faith adviser Paula White will be heading up White House Faith Office, just as she did during his first term in office, when she treated her position like an unofficial arm of his reelection campaign.
As such, we thought it appropriate to remind everyone of just who Paula White is.
In the wake of Trump's loss in the 2020 election, White held multiple emergency prayer services to battle the "demonic confederacies" that were supposedly trying to steal the election.

When that didn't work, White joined Trump at the Jan. 6 rally that preceded the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, where she prayed that God would give rallygoers a “holy boldness” and that “every adversary” would “be overturned right now in the name of Jesus.” She said of Trump, “I secure his purpose. I secure his destiny.”
White has repeatedly declared that her mere presence in the White House makes it "holy ground" and warned that to oppose Trump is to oppose God.
She has declared that Black Lives Matter is an anti-Christ terrorist organization.

She has promised her congregation that God will reward them for giving her money, even going so far as telling them to forsake paying their bills in order to donate to her church.

In 2020, White claimed to have ascended to Heaven, where she met God and he "put a mantle" on her.
