Watch: MSNBC Freaks Out That Christian Nationalists Believe Their ‘Rights Come From God’

MSNBC on Thursday night told its audience that people who believe their rights come from God and not the government are “Christian nationalists,” not real Christians.

Politico National Investigative Correspondent Heidi Przybyla joined All In With Chris Hayes, saying:

“The one thing that unites all of them, because there’s many different groups orbiting Trump, but the one thing that unites them as Christian nationalists – not Christians by the way because Christian nationalist is very different – is that they believe our rights as Americans, as all human beings, don’t come from any earthly authority. They don’t come from Congress, they don’t come from the Supreme Court, they come from God.”

Przybyla was dragged online for the remark.

Daily Wire reporter Megan Basham wrote:

“I don’t believe that MSNBC does not know that our founders believed this too. I don’t believe they don’t know that our Declaration of Independence asserts this very fact—that we are endowed by our Creator with inalienable rights. I think they are trying to erase it from our national history and identity so that we will forget that we have these rights. Because people who do not know that their rights come from God not government are easily ruled and oppressed.”

Podcast host Graham Allen asked, “HAS SHE NOT READ THE CONSTITUTION?!?!?”

The Federalist co-founder Sean Davis posted an image of a U.S. one dollar bill featuring the words “In God We Trust.”
