North Richland Hills has been completely taken over by the tea party. Mayor Jack McCarty, who promoted Tim O'Hare's racial gerrymandering, explains his anger for Obama led him into politics. All 4 Mayors supporting the O'Hare racial gerrymander are deeply tied to the Christian Nationalist movement.

REJECT THE BILLIONAIRES. VOTE IN EVERY LOCAL ELECTION.

I voted against him but he still won. Felt like my voice wasn't heard at all. Disgusting, disgusting man.

pedolphdiddler@reddit

You can vote against him again. Elections say is May 2.

This is par for the course in NRH, no surprise. Most of the mid-cities west of 360 are probably in a similar state of local politics.

fuelvolts@reddit

Not so much the more diverse parts. Hurst and Euless are still relatively sane.

0vr10rd@reddit

I tend to lump HEB in with NRH, but I will try to keep an open mind going forward.

[-]

fuelvolts@reddit

Well, Bedford probably leans like NRH.

Patriot Front is operating propaganda posting openly across all of it....so best to keep eyes open regardless.

[-]

0vr10rd@reddit

They chose an appropriate name for their group. They are 'fronting' as patriots.

Because the large baptist churches drive all the turnout and they push in Christian Nationalists. The rest of the community didn't even know there was an election.

The White Christian Nationalist movement is no joke....and it didn't suddenly appear after Obama was elected. It's been in motion for decades. A guy named Ralph Reed the first executive director of the Christian Coalition during the early 1990s. His playbook began with voters electing specific candidates at the local, city and school boards, up to the state and national level, that supported Christian beliefs over the Constitution. It's taken them years, but they are on the precipice of turning the country into a White Christian Nationalist America.

Speaker Mike Johnson is one. He does not believe in the US Constitution. He believes in the laws set forth in the Christian bible.

We are in very dangerous times.

White Nationalism is the KKK minus cross burning and robes. Both are about the inferiority of non-whites, how minorities left unchecked will take over and strip whites of their rights, how they are blessed by God and Jesus? Familiar?

And remember, one of the largest Klan organizations in the early 20th century was based in Dallas

pedolphdiddler@reddit

People were made in God's image. That line sounds simple enough to understand but Christian Nationalists start red lining around the word "people", adding 1000 exceptions, including women.

FW had a Klan location north of the Courthouse on N. Main St.

Sprinkle some 9/11 on all of that for the perfect recipe for WCN

A good read on the movement: https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2025/02/new-apostolic-reformation-christian-movement-trump/681092/?gift=da6NV8McyXeNZh_ThDLXtykhx8GHVSeJntEP4MbfzJs&utm_source=copy-link&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=share

Obama really upset them by (checks notes) being a black man.

[-]

Dimemori3s@reddit

The worst part is that they are passing their ideology down to younger generations.

[-]

bagheera369@reddit

As noted by the patriot (coward) front stickers i'm pulling off of gas pumps across the area.

Amissa@reddit

Presiding while Black.

DaddyDontTakeNoMess@reddit

True. Also understand that when black professionals say they’re “tired” of office culture, that they really mean that they are tired of racist white people trying to pull them down.

Don’t think that these same people aren’t angry when they see a black person thriving. We can’t even exist without jealousy and hatred. These same people affect how black people are interviewed, hired, and treated in a judicial setting. It’s fucking crazy.

These guys make the Tea Party look progressive.

Racists.

What a bunch of pussies.

[-]

CatteNappe@reddit

Some of them may have started in the Tea Party but they've morphed into something quite different. MAGA's of the Christian Nationalist persuasion as you note.

[-]

foddon@reddit

It's funny to think about them as tea party since literally the only thing they claimed to care about was the debt and when their guy is in office shattering debt records it turns out they don't care about it AT ALL!

[-]

Altruistic-Carry-684@reddit

He really wanted to say “leading the white way.”

[-]

Spiritual_Purpose_19@reddit

If you’re in NRH, please vote for Literally Anybody Else.

[-]

Tonyinthebushes@reddit

Have the day you voted for NRH.

[-]

Upset-Fudge-2703@reddit

Some old white guys, too. That is surprising.

[-]

Ambitious_Ad_9637@reddit

This narrative is deadly and the ghouls that run money for the right are farming up candidates on the local level that likely don’t have the faintest idea who they work for.

[-]

AlliedR2@reddit

Wearing "Racist" as a badge of having done something is just despicable. You did something alright, and it was based on race and favored your preferred race of white. Now I am as lily white as they come but cant you people just govern for all the humans in your district and quit this "they's the wrong color for equal" bullshit?

[-]

crayyarccray@reddit

They look exactly as you'd expect.

Intrepid-Gas7872@reddit

If you watch the democrat national convention they look like orcs

You're looking in the mirror again, silly

I live here.. hope I make it out someday

[-]

yeongno_ate_yangban@reddit (OP)

Vote all of the current city council out! All the seats are challenged this run. Local municipal election day is May 2nd.

[-]

HotwifeandSubby1980@reddit

Saying Obama was divisive sounds equivalent to saying it was the actual slave that caused the civil war.

[-]

DANtheBatman@reddit

Like I’ve said before and will say again, everything we are witnessing from the Republican Party is a response to President Obama having been elected to two terms in office despite being one of the more moderate presidents from the Democratic Party.

[-]

pedolphdiddler@reddit

Yes. A bunch of racists were furious for 8 years. They don't see politics as benefiting them personally in any way. So their unwavering support of the pedophile is just to "own the libs" in retaliation for their ego being hurt from a black man holding top office above them.
