Duck Dynasty’s Phil Robertson Slams $600 Stimulus Checks

The patriarch of the “Duck Dynasty,” reality star Phil Robertson, has some harsh words for Congress after their long negotiated stimulus package only offers menial relief for Americans after politicians “killed small businesses.”

In a long post on Instagram, Robertson criticized the paltry $600 checks going out to some citizens after lawmakers have caused the nation’s “troubles” throughout the entire pandemic.  

“Politicians put people out of work, killed small businesses, and said it was to protect us. And now Congress wants to send Americans $600 for their troubles?” he wrote. “Seems like it’s the heavy boot of big government we need protection from. We’ve had just about enough of passing the bill to find out what’s in it.”

He said that it is up to people to help each other, because the government won’t. “Here’s what I know after more than 7 decades on this earth: One kingdom-minded redneck can help a down-and-out redneck better than the government ever could,” he continued. “If we turn that responsibility over to the government and let ungodly legislators determine how to help us and how to spend our money, there’s no doubt our money will be used for ungodly ends.”

Robertson argues that Americans need to fight for the right to spend funds on those who need it most.  “I’ll never put my faith in a pork-filled bill so heavy it has to be wheeled around. I’m going with Jesus Politics instead,” he went on. “It’s time to fight for the right to decide how to use our money to care for the poor, minister to the needy, and advance the message of Jesus. That’s exactly what Jesus asks of us, and it’s what my book Jesus Politics is all about.”

Roberston says his new book isn’t about bi-partisan politics, it’s about doing what’s right for other people. “Jesus Politics isn’t a book for Election Day. It’s a book about what we can do EVERY day to love God, love our neighbor, and do what’s right — no matter who’s running the government.”

We get locked down and dems wan to let in illegals and anyone to the country and give them benefits. Dems want to build a wall for another country, yet our country is not allowed to have one. They pay everyone else but our citizens whose MONEY IT IS. Is it not obvious to all that the dems do not support our Constitution or love our country and our citizens or our country. They should alb impeached as they are not abiding by their oath of office. Treason.

The vatican wants us to accept pro-abortion leaders. The vatican want us to like homosexual marriages. The vatican wants us to demonize Israel by installing socialism in the US and the rest of the world! The demonrats in the US want us to do the same!
I look at ISRAEL which, against all odds, gives peace, gives love, gives life. They accept their enemies, give their enemies, love their enemies. ( keeping them very close).
It is easier to just love, give, and help. GOD always favor those who follow HIS precepts. NO EDICTS in GOD’S LOVE.
Unlike in California, New York, Michigan, Oregon, Washington, and others! EVIL, DEMONS write edicts, kill believers and destroy churches and businesses. TYRANTS are EVIL and DEMONIC. DEMONS steal elections, corrupt all governments, and lie to the people in order to CONTROL the people.
THROW AWAY THE DEMONIC DEMONRATS and their GOVERNMENT!

Right on bro!, and the only way is for a massive unity of both civilians and the military to storm all castles and drag them all out and make citizens arrest, they are way less of them and way more of US patriots to fight the enemy from within of their domestic tyranny! Time to stop the anti-American democrats, RINOS and their tools for hate and division of America the bought out biased medias propaganda LIES and stop their fraudulent means of ALL elections at both local and especially national levels! Stop the blind patriotism of corrupt government and the false mindsets that any other party vote is wasted besides the current ,corrupt 2 party system of the anti-American democrats and RINOS, also stop the false mindset that any government is too big to fight or fail! Americans for America!
