Preview For This Week's Top 10 Conservative Idiots
The US officially relocated its Embassy to Jerusalem on Monday, formally upending decades of American foreign policy in a move that was met with clashes and protests along the Israeli-Gaza border.
At least 43 Palestinians were killed in Gaza as deadly protests took place ahead of and during the ceremony in Jerusalem — making it the deadliest day there since the 2014 Gaza war.
President Donald Trump did not attend the ceremony in Jerusalem's Arnona neighborhood, but in a video message broadcast at the event he congratulated Israel, saying the opening had been "a long time coming."
"Today, Jerusalem is the seam of Israel's government. It is the home of the Israeli legislature and the Israeli supreme court and Israel's prime minister and president. Israel is a sovereign nation with the right like every other sovereign nation to determine its own capital, yet for many years, we failed to acknowledge the obvious, the plain reality that Israel's capital is Jerusalem," Trump said in the pre-recorded remarks.

It’s good to know that today’s lunatic fringe Christians plan to create a literal version of hell on earth!
*audience applauds wildly*
There's no new Top 10 this week due to the July 4th holiday but instead we'll be running a best of with some of the best of the Top 10 from the last few editions. Come see where we almost get raptured, Alex Jones goes 24/7, we ask how the House Chaplain is still a thing, "Beating A Dead Horse" explores the topic of conservatives vs social media sites, Oliver North compares the Parkland students to terrorists, and we profile "firefighter prophet" Mark Taylor in "This Fucking Guy". Plus Top 10 Investigates the NXIVM cult, and our Holy Shit pastor begs his congregation for a new preaching machine. And we'll also replay the semi-finals of our Stupidest State contest where we pitted Kentucky against Virginia in a winner take all battle for supremacy. And some live music from Imagine Dragons.
