Yesterday, Eric Trump spoke at the opening of the Tommy Gun Warehouse in Greeley, Pennsylvania.

Eric Trump at Tommy Gun

Tommy Gun is controlled by a group called Sanctuary Church, which is a far right, conspiracy-minded breakaway sect of the Moonies. Sanctuary Church is run by Reverend Sun Myung Moon’s youngest son, Hyung Jin Moon. Hyung Jin was Moon’s designated successor but he was fired from his position by his mother shortly after his father’s death. He has been locked in a struggle with his mother, whom he views as the whore of Babylon prophesied in Revelation, ever since. He is in the foreground in the YouTube clip above. Tommy Gun is part of Kahr Arms, which is owned by Hyung Jin’s elder brother Kook Jin (in the baseball cap in the video). Hyung and Kook work together at Sanctuary Chucrh.

Kahr Arms itself was an offshoot of a company called Saeilo, which was founded by Reverend Sun Myung Moon. When Saeilo was founded the elder Moon told his followers that its purpose was to produce cutting-edge technology that would be given away freely to the developing world. In the UK, Moonies raised funds for Saeilo back in the 1980s by telling members of the public that the money was to help Africa. In fact, the assets were essentially diverted into a for-profit arms manufacturer that enriches members of the Moon family. It’s not just that Eric Trump is seeking out the aid of the Moonies. Sanctuary Church is considered so far out that it has been excommunicated even by the mainstream Moonies! Too far out for the Moonies, but not too far out for Trump, apparently.
