Breitbart Reporter Warns Of ‘Increasing Occultism’ And Feminist Witches
By Jared Holt | December 18, 2017 11:57 am

Breitbart tech reporter Charlie Nash appeared on Breitbart’s daily radio program this morning to talk about what he believed to be a feminist-inspired witchcraft movement to cast evil spells on White House officials that is an “increasing thing under Trump.”

Last weekend, Nash wrote an article detailing “the rise of feminist witchcraft” in which he claimed that the terms “witch” and “feminist” have “become synonymous.” This morning, Nash joined Breitbart editor-in-chief Alex Marlow on “Breitbart News Daily” to discuss his article and how he believes feminism and witchcraft have become “increasingly entwined.”

"They like to wind up the Christians. And thirdly, I think they also have a kind of—they feel like they have a connection to the persecuted women of the Salem witch trials. They look at these women and see them as kind of as victims of patriarchy, almost,” Nash said."


"victim of patriarchy, almost"

No shit Sherlock. Leave off the "almost"

Also -

"Nash said that some people trying to use witchcraft against Trump have constructed elaborate “altars and tables with candles and pentagrams.”


Does anyone have a link so I can order a witchcraft kit. I assume there are some suggestions on Pinterest but I don't do crafts.

I probably answered my own question


Bind Trump thing- whatever that means..

https://www.democraticunderground.com/12192040


The Internet...LOL

Components:
•Unflattering photo of Trump (small); see below for one you can print
•Tower tarot card (from any deck)
•Tiny stub of an orange candle (cheap via Amazon)
•Pin or small nail (to inscribe candle)
•White candle (any size), representing the element of Fire
•Small bowl of water, representing elemental Water
•Small bowl of salt, representing elemental Earth
•Feather (any), representing the element of Air
•Matches or lighter
•Ashtray or dish of sand

Optional:
•Piece of pyrite (fool’s gold)
•Sulfur
•Black thread (for traditional binding variant)
•Baby carrot (as substitute for orange candle stub)

Preparation:
•Write “Donald J. Trump” on the orange candle stub with a pin or nail
•Arrange other items in a pleasing circle in front of you
•Lean the Tower card against something so that it’s standing up (vertically)
•Say a prayer for protection and invoke blessing from your preferred spirit or deity. Reading the 23rd Psalm aloud is common in Hoodoo/Conjure/Rootwork traditions. Experienced magicians may perform an appropriate banishing ritual.

I really like the idea of seeking protection from Trump, rather than casting a negative spell against him.
