Fox News host Tucker Carlson unloaded on the far-left transgender movement during a monologue this week after a transgender shooter murdered six people, including three children, at a Christian school in Nashville.

Carlson noted at the top that he had been warning prior to the shooting that the entire movement was “militant” and becoming “dangerous.” But after Monday’s massacre, Carlson noted, the “insidious” media coverage compounded the sickening tragedy. He cited ABC News reporter Terry Moran, who linked the shooting to new laws in Tennessee banning chemical and surgical sex change procedures for minors.

“The State of Tennessee bans the sexual mutilation of children, children get shot to death in a school,” Carlson said. “It’s cause and effect. That’s what ABC News is telling you. That’s not far from justifying mass murder, but others took the next step.”

Carlson then noted that a group called the Trans Resistance Network stated that the shooter’s death was a complex tragedy that resulted from “anti-trans bias.” Fae Johnstone, a biological male who Hershey’s spotlighted last month as it rolled out chocolate bars to honor women, posted messages after the shooting complaining about “trans misogyny.”

Carlson said claims that trans people are in danger or under attack are not borne out by crime statistics.

“It’s a provable lie, and in fact, the opposite is true,” Carlson said. “We seem to be watching the rise of trans terrorism.”

The real conflict, the Fox News host said, is between Christians, whose faith he said precludes the idea that people can change their biology, and the increasingly radical transgender movement.

“The trans movement is the mirror image of Christianity, and therefore its natural enemy,” he continued. “In Christianity, the price of admission is admitting that you’re not God. Christians openly concede that they have no real power over anything, and for that matter, very little personal virtue. They will tell you to your face that they are sinful and helpless and basically absurd. They’re not embarrassed about any of this. They brag about it. ‘That saved a wretch like me,’ goes the most famous Christian hymn ever written in English.”

But trans ideology claims power over nature itself, according to Carlson. And that, he said, is something Christians can never accept.

“That unwillingness to agree, that failure to acknowledge a trans person’s dominion over nature, incites and enrages some in the trans community. People who believe they are God can’t stand to be reminded that they’re not,” Carlson said. “So, Christianity and transgender orthodoxy are wholly incompatible theologies. They can never be reconciled. They are on a collision course with each other.”

Air Force Secretary Frank Kendall told U.S. lawmakers this week that China’s rapid build up of nuclear weapons was the most “disturbing” thing that he’s ever seen in his 50-year career in the defense industry.

Kendall made the remarks while testifying to the House Defense Appropriations Committee hearing on Tuesday over the rising threats that the U.S. is facing from communist China.

“I don’t think I’ve seen anything more disturbing in my career than the Chinese ongoing expansion of their nuclear force,”  said Kendall. “For decades, they were quite comfortable with an arsenal of a few hundred nuclear weapons, which was fairly clearly a second-strike capability to act as a deterrent.”

“That expansion that they’re undertaking puts us into a new world that we’ve never lived in before, where you have three powers — three great powers, essentially — with large arsenals of nuclear weapons,” Kendall said in reference to the U.S., Russia, and China having large nuclear arsenals.”

China has rapidly increased the size and sophistication of their military in recent years, including developing the most advanced hypersonic missiles in the world and building scores of nuclear missile silos deep inside the country.

Kendall said that the primary threat that the Air Force and Space Force are worried about is “China, China, China.”

Kendall said that the U.S. must develop and deploy new cutting-edge weapons systems to “maintain the air and space superiority that America and our allies have counted on for decade.”

“In order to proceed with any of these programs, the Department of the Air Force needs timely authorizations and appropriations,” he said. “War [with China] is not inevitable. But successfully deterring conflict is heavily dependent on our military capabilities.”

“Russia’s latest move on the New START treaty is not helping — it’s going in the wrong direction,” Kendall said. “Nobody wants a nuclear war. We do not want to go back to that [Cold War] world of 30 years ago. I thought we would never be in this position again, and here we are. So, we need to be wise. We really need to start talking to them.”
