During a conversation about the president’s White House prayer gatherings, Bible studies, and general support for Christianity, evangelical Pastor Paul Begley described how first lady Melania Trump, a Catholic, didn’t want to go into the White House “unless it has been completely exorcised.”

Given its previous occupants, can anyone really blame her?

Appearing on February 2 on the program Weekend Vigilante, Begley told host Sheila Zilinsky that the first lady said, “I’m not going to go into that White House unless it has been completely exorcised” of pagan artifacts and items from previous Democratic administrations, according to CNS News.

According to Begley, other than a cross on the wall, “they cleansed the White House. They had people in there anointing it with oil and praying everywhere.”

“I have to say, when the president allowed 40 pastors to come in to the White House and anoint him with oil and lay their hands and pray on him—seven times he’s done this—that is unheard of,” the pastor said. “We haven’t ever – the guy’s got flaws, we all do. But at least he is humble enough and recognizing that he needs God enough that he keeps bringing them in for the prayer.”

And it all started with the president’s wife.

“The first lady, in that five hours when the Obamas and the Trumps went down to the Capitol and Trump was being sworn in as the 45th president of the United States,” Begley said, “Melania Trump said to her husband – she said, ‘I’m not going to go into that White House unless it has been completely exorcised … I will not spend one night in it.'”

“Because apparently during the eight years when Obama was there, and maybe even some of the presidents before him, there were all kinds of idol gods and images and all kinds of artifacts in there that were demonic, even some of the stuff from the Clinton era because they were really tied in with the Haitians,” he continued. “I can tell you, you can read the Serpent and the Rainbow story and find out just how much Haitian witch-doctor influence was on Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton’s lives. They constantly went back there. They spent their honeymoon with a witch doctor. Who does that?”

It’s true. CNS reports:

According to the Washington Post, the Clintons did go to Haiti for their honeymoon in 1975. The Post further reported, “They toured the old hotel where the writer Ernest Hemingway once stayed and visited a voodoo high priest dressed in all white.” The article does not say why they visited the voodoo high priest. “They decorated their homes with Haitian art,” said The Post. “They flew back again and again. Hillary Clinton once said that theirs was a ‘Haiti-obsessed family.'” In his book, My Life, Bill Clinton explained that he and Hillary attended a voodoo ceremony where an alleged “spirit arrived,” participants rolled flaming torches over their bodies and walked on hot coals and, at one point, a person bit off the head of a chicken.

“This was a major spiritual – it might sound like overdoing it, a little excessive, but you’ve got to take the seat of authority when you go into spiritual warfare,” Begley said. “You start with the spiritual authority and then it goes on from there out. I think that that might have been where this whole thing began, in a mighty way of exorcising the demons.”

When CNS News asked Begley about his comments, the pastor told them he couldn’t reveal his source but it was close to “those working in the White House.”

“I was not there, but a close source to those working in the White House revealed to me that the ‘Spiritual Cleaning’ did take place before the First Lady would feel comfortable living at the White House,” Begley wrote in an email to CNS News. “All religious artifacts from former administrations were removed except for 1 cross on 1 wall in the White House. Also Prayer Meetings were established in the White House for prayer and devotions. I was requested to (not reveal my source).”
