‍Cultural Chaos from City Hall to the Locker Room

Mamdani never hid his agenda. He promised rent freezes, city-owned grocery stores, free health care for everyone, and the power for the city to seize private buildings from “bad landlords.” Daniel calls it what it is: Marxism—wrapped in compassion, funded by taxpayers far beyond New York.

At the same time, America is approving madness in its most vulnerable spaces. Cohen revisits the Gold’s Gym story of Tish Hyman, a black lesbian woman who was naked in the women’s locker room when a biological man walked in claiming to be a woman. When she objected, she was removed from the gym. He stayed.

The “most oppressed” in our culture are no longer the women who feel unsafe. They are the men who claim to be women and demand access to female spaces—even after a violent past. That is not compassion. It is confusion. Scripture says, “God is not a God of confusion but of peace” (1 Corinthians 14:33).

This same spirit of confusion shows up on the political right. Daniel confronts influential conservatives who platform open antisemites like Nick Fuentes without pushback. When Tucker Carlson gives a soft interview to a Holocaust denier and tells critics to “buzz off,” that is not courage—it is compromise.

The irony is painful. Some voices who claim to defend Christian values mock concern about real persecution. Ted Cruz highlights Christians slaughtered in Nigeria and Sudan, and Tucker calls it “weird.” Yet believers are being burned in churches, beheaded, and hunted for their faith. If we cannot call evil what it is, the problem is not our enemies—it’s our lack of discernment.

Money, Power, and the Battle for Our Hearts

The moral breakdown runs from City Hall to Capitol Hill. President Trump proposes sending Affordable Care Act subsidies directly to citizens instead of bloated insurance companies. Chuck Schumer would rather protect corporate profits than reopen government.

Then there is Nancy Pelosi. She entered Washington as a public servant and leaves with an estimated net worth in the hundreds of millions. Her stock portfolio beat top hedge funds and even Warren Buffett’s returns. When asked about insider trading, she dodged with nervous smiles.

Meanwhile, mainstream media runs tearful stories about people on government aid unable to afford eyebrow appointments. Daniel’s point is not cruelty—it is responsibility. Benefits meant to feed families were never designed to fund luxuries.

"For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat." (2 Thessalonians 3:10)

Yet glimpses of sanity remain. Tennessee removed pride flags from public schools so classrooms can focus on education, not activism. Italy proposed banning face-covering Islamic garments in public, arguing that religious freedom should not create parallel societies. These are imperfect steps—but at least they recognize a truth: no nation survives when it refuses to say no to destructive ideologies.

A Biblical Response to a World on Fire

From Mamdani’s victory party to transgender men in women’s locker rooms to antisemitism and the persecution of Christians, Daniel Cohen returns to one truth: this is not political chaos—it is spiritual war.

The answer is not despair. It is not loyalty to pundits or politicians. The answer is returning to the Word of God. Genesis 1:27 tells us that God created humanity male and female. Romans 11 reminds us that God’s covenant with Israel stands. Ephesians 6 declares that our real enemies are not flesh and blood but spiritual powers of darkness.

So what should Christians do?

Wake up spiritually. Read Scripture so you can recognize lies from both left and right.
Refuse cowardice. When you see antisemitism or the abuse of the vulnerable, speak truth in love.
Live ready. Jesus is coming again—not to rule from New York or Brussels but from Jerusalem.

History is not falling apart. It is falling into place under His authority. Stay grounded in Scripture, stand with truth, and let your hope rest in Christ—not in the chaos of the world.
