Pastor Hyung-Jin “Sean” Moon, the leader of the controversial Rod of Iron Ministries, is now spreading far-right rhetoric via a series of wild low-budget music videos.

...

Another six-minute song called “Fruit Ninja,” Moon raps, “Did you hear about this group called LGTBQ/You may have heard them in your school or even your church pew/They are telling our kids they can switch to any gender/Taking hormones slicing organs like they’re playing Fruit Ninja.”

Other tracks promote a grab bag of other far-right conspiracy theories. “Suddenly Dead” promotes the widely debunked claim that people who received the COVID-19 vaccine have been dropping dead. “Red Eye Patriot” promotes the baseless “Fedsurrection” conspiracy, which claims undercover federal agents were behind Jan. 6 with the goal of smearing Trump supporters. “They call us conspiracy theorists and domestic terrorists/They did the sedition and blamed it on you and me,” Moon raps.

...

Moon’s church, which imagines the “Rod of Iron” in the Bible’s Book of Revelations as a modern-day AR-15 and Jesus Christ as a manufacturer of assault weapons, is an example of an extremist group that, despite being somewhat insular and fringe, operates in lockstep with the broader far-right and GOP when it comes to fighting the culture war du jour.

...

In late 2020, fighting “political satanism” meant contesting the results of the presidential election. Moon and other senior members of the church were at the Capitol on Jan. 6 (though there’s no evidence to suggest they went inside).

The festival, a two-day carnival of MAGA dripping madness, offered an unfiltered look at the Republican Party's present and future.

by Zach D. Roberts October 13, 2023

The Rod of Iron Festival in the woods of Greeley, Pennsylvania, sure knows how to put on a show: a 50 person choir flown in from Japan, firearm giveaways, and a bonfire. Too bad it’s all organized by a cult that “worships” guns and was started by one of the sons of Reverend Moon, the founder of the Unification Church who claims to be a messiah.

Since 2020, the Pennsylvania Sanctuary Church, a sect of the Unification Church (aka The Moonies), has held a festival in October celebrating firearms, the 2nd Amendment, and of course former President Donald Trump. The former President has never attended, but they have been able to pull in conservative names like Dana Loesch, Alan Gottlieb, Steve Bannon, and this year Sebastian Gorka and Jack Posobiec.

The festival was a two-day carnival of MAGA dripping madness.

Right-wing radio broadcaster and former deputy assistant to President Trump Sebastian Gorka opened the festival with a wild speech that blamed fentanyl deaths on immigrants and claimed that President Joe Biden had open borders from the moment he took office. The fact that President Biden has continued many of Trump’s nightmarish border policies, while his border apprehensions and expulsions were higher in 2021 than in any year of the Trump administration, didn’t seem to matter.

...

The evening’s musical act was none other than the chosen heir to Reverend Moon, the Second King … Sean Moon aka King Bullethead. Over the last couple years he’s been working on his rapping and even though the lyrics were truly vile and conspiracy-filled, the performance was incredibly intense. The main stage tent was packed with hundreds of devotees, some who even stage-dived.

...

Day 2 Pastor Sean Moon’s Speech opened the second day. “The Communist Party under Mao and China funded the destruction of traditional marriage through bars and strip clubs funded by the state,” said Moon. “In Germany, the Nazis created the first homosexual rights organization and groomed soldiers into abominable homosexual practices. In America, the Communist forces funded sexual liberation, LGBTQ rights and drag queens, shows books, schools and a multibillion dollar genital mutilation industry.”

Far-right political operative and Steve Bannon friend Jack Posobiec was the headliner for the second and final day of the Rod of Iron Festival. If you’re not familiar with him you might be familiar with his conspiracy theory, PizzaGate.

Posobiec knows how to terrify his MAGA fanbase. He began his speech by claiming that the Democrats were planning to put Trump’s voters into gulags:

“Yeah, we know what those are called. Those are called internment camps. Okay. That’s what that is. They’re called gulags. Go ask the Uyghurs in China about that. Go ask the Japanese how they were treated during World War Two about those camps. All right. We’ve done that before. Okay? It’s happened. Now. We’re being and now we’re being told that it’s going to be done domestically against our own population.”

The Proud Boys’ presence at the festival is the latest example of the far-right street-fighting gang’s willingness to forge alliances with fringe groups.

By Tess Owen

October 10, 2023, 7:04pm

In what can only be described as a meeting of minds, the Proud Boys appear to have aligned themselves with an ultra-fringe religious sect in Pennsylvania that worships with AR-15s.

The Sanctuary Church, also known as Rod of Iron Ministries, is run by Pastor Hyung-Jin “Sean” Moon. Moon’s late father founded the international “Unification Church,” an alleged cult whose adoring followers were known as “Moonies.”

The younger Moon, with the help of his brother Justin Moon (owner of a gun company, Kahr Arms) founded his own church in 2017, putting a militant, AR-15 centric spin on his father’s teachings.

This weekend, the church hosted its fourth annual “Rod of Iron Freedom Festival” at the Kahr Arms warehouse in Greeley, Pennsylvania, about 45 miles from Scranton. The event included a performance by Pastor Moon, aka “King Bullethead,” who rapped about putting pedophiles in “the wood chipper.” It also featured a ceremonial burning of a pansexual Pride flag, speeches by failed local political candidates, as well as hard-right pundit and former Trump official Seb Gorka — and, of course, the Proud Boys. Some members of the church had traveled from as far as Korea and Japan to attend.

... the church has also cultivated local political influence that has helped draw the likes of the Proud Boys and “parents’ rights” groups Moms for Liberty into their orbit.

... the younger Moon has sought to embed his church not only in right-wing politics but in MAGA culture. Moon and other church officials were tear-gassed outside the Capitol on Jan 6, and Moon’s sermons can be labeled, broadly, as Christian Nationalist.

MAGA Church Plans to Raffle a Trump AR-15 at Second Amendment Rally They consider the assault weapon to be an instrument of divine justice.

In July, former President Donald Trump was nearly assassinated by a 20-year-old man wielding an AR-15-style rifle. That near miss hasn’t stopped the Rod of Iron Ministries from holding a raffle this coming weekend for a special Trump-branded AR-15 at its fifth annual “Freedom Festival.”

Billed as the “largest open carry rally in America,” the festival draws attendees to celebrate the Second Amendment and hear from headliners that will include former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn, radio host Sebastian Gorka, former US Rep. Allen West, former Trump ICE Director Tom Homan, and Pizzagate conspiracy theorist Jack Posobiec. Anyone who registers early for the free tickets can enter the raffle to win the Trump gun.

The Rod of Iron Ministries was founded by Hyung Jin “Sean” Moon as a militant breakaway from the Unification Church founded by his father, the late Sun Myung Moon. [NOT a] graduate of Harvard Divinity School [see below], Pastor Sean Moon’s sermons and social media videos espouse a particular End Times theology that predicts a future overthrow of the American government. He believes the AR-15 is an instrument of God’s divine justice—the “rod of iron” invoked in Revelation 2:27.

Moon often wears a crown of bullets, carries a gold-plated assault weapon, and rides a Harley in a helmet with a creepy skeleton facemask. (Moon also seems to have musical aspirations: He raps under the name King Bullethead and will also perform at this weekend’s Freedom Fest.)

With the help of a $5 million loan from their father, Moon’s brother Justin founded the Kahr Firearms Group in 1995. It started off manufacturing mostly small arms designed to tap into the growing market for American-made concealed weapons as states began to relax their gun laws. It has since expanded, and now Kahr is a sponsor of “Freedom Fest,” which will be held at its TommyGun warehouse in Greeley, Pennsylvania.

Both Moons have cultivated significant MAGA ties, including with the Trump brothers, Eric and Don Jr. Kahr Firearms now offers several Trump-themed weapons, and the company’s products are frequently promoted in Don Jr.’s weapons-themed outdoor magazine, Field Ethos. When the firearms company opened its TommyGun warehouse in 2016, Eric Trump gave a speech.

Given Sean Moon’s obsession with the downfall of the current American government, it’s no surprise that he was involved in the “Stop the Steal” movement to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election. He was at the US Capitol on January 6, and while he didn’t go in, he was close enough to get tear-gassed.
