Christian MAGA Singer Vows To Continue Despite Canada Protests

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Sean Feucht, a prominent American Christian worship leader and vocal supporter of the MAGA movement, says he will press on with his tour of Canada, despite a wave of public protests, security concerns, and event cancellations in multiple cities. Newsweek contacted Feucht for comment via email on Sunday. Why It Matters Feucht's tour has become a flash point in Canada's ongoing debate over freedom of expression, public safety, and the role of religious and political ideologies in public spaces. As communities respond to his messaging—often framed around conservative Christian values and American right-wing politics—the backlash highlights tensions between freedom of speech and protecting marginalized groups from perceived harm. Despite the setbacks, Feucht remains determined to complete his tour. He is continuing to organize events at alternative venues and actively posting about it on social media. On Saturday, Feucht posted on his Facebook and Instagram accounts: "We've been canceled, banned, protested and smoke-bombed in Canada, but the MOVE OF GOD ONLY GROWS STRONGER! "The greater the resistance, the greater the breakthrough! See you today Ottawa and tomorrow Toronto!" Sean Feucht is seen at Wesley Bolin Memorial Plaza outside the Arizona State Capitol in Phoenix, Arizona, on October 19, 2024.

Rebecca Noble/AFP/Getty Images What To Know As reported by Newsweek, Feucht is a pro-Trump American Christian singer-songwriter who unsuccessfully ran as a Republican candidate in California's 3rd congressional district in 2020. Feucht has previously been criticized over remarks he has made about the LGBTQ+ community and for his pro-life stance. He first rose to prominence with his "Let Us Worship" tour in the latter half of 2020, which protested COVID-19 lockdowns. In April of 2022, he helped to lead a protest against The Walt Disney Company for their opposition to anti-LGBTQ legislation. In early 2023, he announced a "Kingdom to the Capitol" tour co-sponsored by Turning Point USA, the nonprofit that advocates for conservative politics at high schools and university campuses. Several Canadian cities, including Halifax, Quebec City, Charlottetown, and Moncton, have canceled Feucht's scheduled events in recent days. Officials cited public safety concerns, protest activity and logistical complications. In Halifax, Parks Canada revoked a permit for a concert at the York Redoubt historic site after consulting with police and local residents. The event was moved to Shubenacadie, about an hour away, where hundreds of attendees gathered. Despite the relocations and cancellations, protests have continued to follow Feucht's appearances. In Montreal, demonstrators set off smoke bombs inside a venue, and at least one person was arrested. Critics of the tour, including advocacy groups and local officials, argue that Feucht's rhetoric is inflammatory and harmful to community cohesion. Some have also pointed to Feucht's political affiliations, which they believe are inconsistent with Canada's inclusive values. Feucht has accused Canadian authorities and media outlets of discriminating against his religious beliefs, claiming his events are being unfairly targeted for expressing traditional Christian values. He has maintained that his message is peaceful and spiritual in nature, not political. What People Are Saying Feucht posting on his X account on Saturday: "I've led worship and preached in Africa, the Middle East and all across the world in 2025. The most intense persecution was not in Iraq or Turkey - but CANADA! Didn't have that on my bingo card." The city of Vaughan, where Feucht was due to perform on Sunday, said in a statement, per CTV News: "The City of Vaughan has denied a Special Event Permit for a music event to be held at Dufferin District Park on July 27 on the basis of health and safety as well as community standards and well-being." What Happens Next City officials in other planned tour stops are assessing whether to grant permits, and national law enforcement agencies are monitoring developments closely. As protests persist, the debate over who gets access to public spaces—and under what terms—is likely to intensify in the days ahead.

Epstein scandal questions: Letters to the Editor — July 28, 2025

US District Court for the Southern District of New York/AFP via Getty Images The Issue: Ghislaine Maxwell talking to the DOJ amid a resurgence in interest in the Jeffrey Epstein case. Well, well, well: Ghislaine Maxwell, ice-cold procurer, sex-trafficker and co-conspirator with Jeffrey Epstein in a savage and sordid criminal enterprise is a resident in a rundown federal prison circled by razor wire ('DOJ big sit-down with Epstein madam Ghislaine,' July 25). That's appropriate. It's abhorrent to call Maxwell a socialite; she's a convicted felon. Advertisement Marc D. Greenwood Opelika, Ala. American presidents have been no stranger to scandal. Advertisement Thomas Jefferson dealt with allegations of a long-standing sexual relationship with one of his slaves, Sally Hemings. No less salacious was the Monica Lewinsky affair. Perhaps the most notorious was President Richard Nixon's participation in Watergate, which at its core was an attempt to illegally impact the outcome of an election. While these transgressions served to outrage the public, none involved the alleged molestation of dozens of underage girls, the current scandal impacting President Trump's second term. Although there is no evidence exposing the president's participation in Epstein's acts of degeneracy, one question remains on the minds of many Americans: Was Trump complicit in any way? Advertisement The truth may never be known, but one thing is certain — obfuscation and deflection are not its pathway. Jim Paladino Tampa, Fla. It appears that Maxwell is going to spill her guts in exchange for her freedom. Advertisement Makes sense, and she's definitely got the goods. But she will be living in fear for the rest of her life. Kreg Ramone Manhattan The step by Republican Speaker Mike Johnson to cease possible discussions about the Epstein files by shutting down the House of Representatives smells of desperation. Epstein died almost six years ago — by whatever means — and there is still no real action on releasing the files, despite Trump's assurances. The suggestion of allowing Trump more time to address the matter is farcical given how long it has been a lead item in most newspapers. The files are not going to be forgotten, and hopefully they won't be destroyed, so let them be seen. Let the truth be told. This applies to all countries and their governments. Dennis Fitzgerald Advertisement Melbourne, Australia Every morning, the NY POSTcast offers a deep dive into the headlines with the Post's signature mix of politics, business, pop culture, true crime and everything in between. Subscribe here! The Issue: French President Emmanuel Macron's decision to officially recognize Palestinian statehood. Regarding the pathetic country of France recognizing Palestine: Isn't this the same France that in 1942 rounded up thousands of Jewish citizens, among them almost 4,000 Jewish children, in a bicycle stadium and sent them to the Nazis for extermination ('Macron: France will recognize Palestinian state,' July 25)? Advertisement A total of at least 77,000 Jews were rounded up by the French police and sent to their horrible deaths. Why would we deal with France at all? I don't buy anything from the French and never will. Americans should boycott all of their cheap wine and anything else. Total isolation for this stupid, terrorist-loving country is a good solution. Or better yet, France should invite all the Palestinians there to make it their new homeland. Richard Smith Palmerton, Pa. Advertisement In fear of his ever-growing Muslim population, resulting from open borders, French President Emmanuel Macron will 'bend the knee' and recognize a Palestinian state at the antisemitic UN General Assembly in September. I wonder: Which portion of France will Maron cut out for his new Palestinian state ? Joe Alloy Yulee, Fla. Advertisement Want to weigh in on today's stories?
