CNN’s latest documentary on so-called “Christian nationalism” appears to attempt to redefine those who celebrate that America was founded on Christian beliefs as extremists — becoming a vague political weapon rather than a clear ideology.
“We hear all the time: The danger is Christian nationalism, but the definition of Christian nationalism is so fluid,” BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey comments on “Relatable.”
“I’m not even sure how I would personally define it, but if you break down the words, nationalism just means that you want to put the interests of your country first. It’s not automatically synonymous with Nazism or fascism, but I do believe that we actually have the Christian responsibility to put the needs and the well-being of our citizens first,” she explains.
“God created nations. Nations are like families,” Stuckey says, pointing out that “you don’t hate your neighbors just because you lock your doors and you live inside a house.”
“You just love your family. And God has created these circles of affection and circles of priority for us for our good, especially for the good of children again. But I think that’s true of Zimbabwe, as well of China. Everyone should put their country first,” she continues.
“So that’s how I would define nationalism ... in comparison to globalism,” she says, explaining that the end result of globalism is a global government where the needs of everyone across the globe are prioritized equally.
“Absolutely impossible chaos. I’m anti-chaos,” Stuckey says.
“And then Christian, of course, we know what Christian is. A belief in the gospel of Jesus Christ. And so you believe in the gospel of Jesus Christ. You believe in putting your country first. You believe as Christians that your Christian worldview should impact all you think about policy and politics,” she explains.
Stuckey also explains that what CNN is trying to do is attempt to define “Christian nationalism” as something it is not.
“The CNN anchor behind the project, her name is Pamela Brown. She interviewed Douglas Wilson. Doug Wilson is an Idaho pastor in Moscow, Idaho. He identifies as a Christian nationalist, and she said, quote, ‘The response to that report was overwhelming and highlighted the need to better understand this movement working to redefine America as a Christian nation,’” Stuckey says.
“So you can already kind of see the bias in their language there, as if America doesn’t have a Christian foundation, which of course it does,” she adds, pointing out that while Brown is worried about a Christian’s belief system, the secular belief system many Americans follow is even more widespread.
“They’re bringing the fullness of their belief system into the voting booth, into their PTA meetings, into the city council, into their classrooms, into every public sphere that they occupy,” she says.
“And Christian conservatives, and Christian conservatives alone, are told, 'You can’t do that,'” she adds.

A Minneapolis county attorney said her office is investigating 17 incidents involving federal agents, including Border Patrol Chief Gregory Bovino, for possible criminal charges.
Bovino headed the immigration enforcement mission in Minnesota dubbed Operation Metro Surge but left the area after the deaths of anti-ICE protesters Renee Good and Alex Pretti in January.
'We will investigate and pursue charging where appropriate, and we'll seek collaboration with local law enforcement wherever and whenever needed.'
On Monday, the Hennepin County Attorney's Office said it was investigating the incidents and opened an online portal to collect tips from the public about "potentially unlawful behavior" committed by agents of Operation Metro Surge.
"Our [Transparency and Accountability Project] team is actively investigating 17 incidents that have been brought to our attention by the community, including Gregory Kent Bovino's actions near Mueller Park on January 21," reads a statement from Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty.
Moriarty was likely referring to an incident captured on video where Bovino tossed a canister of chemical irritants at protesters after giving them a warning to disperse. A photographer also captured an officer apparently directly spraying an irritant into a protester's face after he was pinned to the ground on the same day.
"We will investigate and pursue charging where appropriate, and we'll seek collaboration with local law enforcement wherever and whenever needed," she added.
The statement said that portals created for the cases involving Pretti and Good had been closed after collecting public information.
"Make no mistake, we are not afraid of any legal fight," Moriarty added. "But we will do this ethically, responsibly, and vigorously. TAP is fundamental to our efforts to ensure the transparency and accountability that our community deserves. This is just the beginning."
A request for comment from the Department of Homeland Security was not immediately returned.
After Bovino left, the administration sent border czar Tom Homan to oversee the operation in Minneapolis. He has since withdrawn the federal officers and ended the operation after citing its successes.
Afterward, Bovino released a video message to federal officers expressing his gratitude and support.
"I'm very proud of what you, the mean green machine, are doing in Minneapolis right now, just like you've done it across the United States over these past tough nine months," he said in front of Mount Rushmore in late January.
"I also want you to know that I've got your back, now and always — I love you, I support you, and I salute you," he added.
