    Marble Doodads & Gold Toilets, and the Gospel of Political Vanity. [ES Subtítulos]
    May 23 2026
    Marble Doodads & Gold Toilets, and the Gospel of Political VanityBrother Jasper Culpepper, chaplain to the GOP (God’s Own Party)Friends, the Republic Was Never Supposed to Sparkle. These are spiritually confusing times for True Christians. For generations, Washington, D.C. looked exactly the way government oughta look: restrained, dusty, mildly constipated, and faintly embarrassed to exist at all. Marble columns stood around like Baptist ushers waiting to tackle somebody for chewing gum near the Book of Romans. The Capitol dome loomed overhead like a bald Presbyterian librarian silently judging your grammar, your hemline, and your cholesterol simultaneously.The whole city smelled like parchment, radiator heat, dead presidents, and soup crackers dissolved in weak broth.And that was proper.Because Proverbs 16:18 warns us plainly:“Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.”The old republic understood this. The architecture itself whispered humility. It said:“Please lower your voice near the Constitution.”It said:“Maybe don’t gold-plate every toilet in sight like an Egyptian casino pharaoh.”It said:“Government works for the people, not whichever millionaire just discovered bronzer and Roman columns during a divorce.”But clearly it was the Democrats who flung open the gates of Babylon and unleashed modern political television culture upon the nation like a demonic leaf blower packed with cocaine residue and expired casino shrimp.Now Washington is transforming into a flaming carnival of ego, chandeliers, patriotic branding, and decorative nonsense. Suddenly everybody wants giant arches, colossal ballrooms, ceremonial corridors, gold trim, and reflecting pools polished so brightly they resemble the waiting room of a luxury Botox clinic where emotional-support peacocks serve cucumber water to hedge-fund managers.The capital city increasingly looks less like the seat of a republic and more like what happens when a cruise-ship buffet supervisor inherits the Roman Empire during a concussion.the arc of triumph covered with orange hair on the topAnd naturally the Democrats accuse good God-fearing Republicans of being judgmental for noticing the smoke while the curtains burn behind them.Now friends, Scripture repeatedly warns against vanity and false grandeur. Ecclesiastes tells us:“All was vanity and vexation of spirit.”But vanity is precisely what empires adore.That is why tyrants always build gigantic nonsense.Hitler and Albert Speer dreamed of Germania — a capital city designed less for human beings than for intimidation. Endless boulevards. Massive arches. Buildings so grotesquely oversized they looked like giants ordered office parks during a methamphetamine relapse.The Cary Harrison Files airs on KPFK 90.7 FM Los Angeles and the Pacifica Radio Network.

The Capitol once had the emotional energy of a principal apologizing ...

  • Bottled Water Is A Plastic Bottle Scam Packed With Nanoplastics [ES Subtítulos]

    Bottled Water Is A Plastic Bottle Scam Packed With Nanoplastics [ES Subtítulos]
    May 23 2026

    Then the marketing departments arrived like locusts wearing Patagonia vests.

    Now every mall philosopher with a yoga mat and a TikTok account clutches a fourteen-dollar bottle of “alkaline glacier water” as if it were squeezed from the kidneys of Nordic angels. The labels promise transcendence. Snowy mountains. Crystal waterfalls. Fonts whispering spiritual superiority. You’re not drinking water anymore. You’re participating in an identity ritual for people who think electrolytes are a personality.

    And after decades of this magnificent consumer stampede, researchers discovered that bottled water may contain staggering quantities of microscopic plastic particles. Tiny polymer crumbs floating around in your drink like invisible confetti from Satan’s birthday party.

    The Great Tap Water Panic

    The bottled water industry never needed to openly declare tap water deadly. That would’ve been too obvious. Instead, they built one of the slickest propaganda campaigns since diamonds became mandatory for engagement rings.

    They sold atmosphere.

    Rusty pipes. Ominous music. Murky visuals. Words like purity, clean hydration, and ultra-filtered refreshment. Commercials featuring beige-sweatered women staring thoughtfully at glaciers like they were auditioning for an antidepressant commercial.

    The implication was unmistakable:

    Tap water is for prisoners, laundromats, and houseplants. Bottled water is for successful people doing rooftop yoga.

  • The Government Put Microphones in Your Underwear — A Sermon for the End Times

    The Government Put Microphones in Your Underwear — A Sermon for the End Times
    May 17 2026
    Friends, this is a glorious and deeply troubling time for True Christians everywhere.Glorious, because the Lord has once again confirmed through the miracle of consumer electronics that the End Times are upon us. Troubling, because in delivering us these signs, He has chosen as His vessel the one garment that True Christians have always known to be — at minimum — theologically suspicious.The undergarment, friends. The underpants.Now, before we get to the government surveillance program embedded in your waistband, let us acknowledge what the Lord already knew when He fashioned Adam and Eve in the garden: clothing was not His idea.Clothing was the consequence of sin. Before the Fall, Adam and Eve walked freely in God’s presence, unashamed, unencumbered, and — critically — unwired. It was the serpent’s influence, the awareness of nakedness, the birth of shame that introduced fabric into Eden.Clothing is therefore the original evidence of human corruption.Brother Jasper CulpepperAnd underwear — underwear, friends, is the most corrupt layer of all. It is clothing’s confession. It is the garment closest to the very site of original transgression. It is where the devil lives, and now, apparently, where IARPA has put its microphones.We’ll get to that. Let us begin at the face, because that’s where God started before He moved south.We’re talking about Facebook’s Meta glasses.We had always assumed the Mark of the Beast would be something dramatic. A brand. A microchip. A bureaucratic nightmare administered by a one-world government run out of Brussels by people with good haircuts. We imagined we would know.We did not imagine it would come in tortoiseshell frames. We did not imagine it would pair with Spotify.And yet.The Cary Harrison Files airs on KPFK 90.7 FM Los Angeles and the Pacifica Radio Network.

It has a five-star rating on Amazon and comes with a ninety-day return window, which is more mercy than the Lord offered Sodom — though Sodom at least had the dignity not to issue a press release about it.Praise Him. For He allowed the surveillance state to arise not through jackboots and midnight raids but through accessorizing.For thirty years, the Deep State could not do what Zuckerberg accomplished over a long weekend in Menlo Park. The government needed warrants. It needed subpoenas. It needed windowless rooms in Fort Meade with blinking servers and a man in a polo shirt eating a sad desk sandwich.God in His infinite efficiency said: inefficient. Cut out the middleman. Convince the prisoners to build the Panopticon themselves. And wear it. On their faces. As a lifestyle choice. With a matching carrying case.Jeremy Bentham — a man the Lord sent ahead as a warning, like John the Baptist but for surveillance capitalism — designed his Panopticon in 1791. The prison where the warden sees every cell but the prisoners cannot see the warden. The genius of it was the uncertainty. You might be watched. You might not. But you behave as though you always are.Zuckerberg improved on this by simply removing the uncertainty.The full conversation in the video above and wherever you get podcasts.
