A Democrat staff member in Michigan posted, then quickly deleted, an image in which she is kissing a "sexy satanic" goat image at the Michigan state Capitol.
But as the Libs of TikTok investigative team noted, the internet is forever.
A report at the Washington Stand explained that Skorka wrote, "In the name of Satan, I claim the sexy satanic baphomet goat altar at OUR Michigan Capitol. Amen," making it like a prayer to Satan.
The report explained the Satanic Temple had placed the "Yule Goat" there. It's a small tree with satanic imagery topped by a goat's skull.
The report said Skorka calls herself the Michigan House Democrats’ media production specialist.
A legislative publication lists Skorka as the House Democratic Caucus digital content producer during the 2019-2020 legislative year, the report said.
Family Research Council chief Tony Perkins told The Stand it was a "sign of the times" for the Democrats literally to "embrace" demonic idols.
"Evil has become emboldened as Christians have retreated in the face of cultural hostility to truth," he said.
He continued, "Now is not the time to step back; rather, it is time to step in. Pray that the light will scatter the darkness — then be the light as Jesus said we were to be: ‘For the weapons of our warfare [are] not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ’ (II Corinthians 10:4-5)."
Satanic promotions have surged in recent years, with multiple displays at holiday events, after-school Satan clubs being launched, and more.
"The values of Satanism don’t belong on the grounds of our state capitols and must not be promoted," charged Arielle Del Turco, of the Family Research Council, in an interview with The Stand. "The Satanic imagery being erected in the public square is going to force Americans to think deeply about the character of our country and what values we should or should not allow to be featured on government property."
Skorka previously had said on social media, "Don’t forget to wish a Pagan a happy Yule and a bright solstice," but complained that no one could "joke" on the internet anymore.
