      Isara Mo I read your post There is NO talk I agree You read Rev. 2 and there should be NO discussion that the same jezebel spirit from the OT was controlling the church. The Spirit spoke in way to be dealt with – not pacified in the flesh

      There is so much doctrinal compromise today in the church and some theological intimidation by some ” pros”of trying to make people conform to certain set doctrines and this quiet detrimental to truth seeking…
      If TRUTH can not make one free it is not worthwhile propagating it.
      If we see a problem we should say it is a problem not shirk from it or pacify it by flesh..(as you say)
      Religious sentimentalism is what the devil loves to promote not war and deliverance: the former makes him secure and the latter makes him uncomfortable…
      Praise be to God who trains my hands for war and my fingers to battle..

    Isara Mo I think Joe Absher has been handled by Jezebel spirits first hand if you know what I mean – no punt intended; But here is my take from somewhat long years of ministry I cant compare to 50 yr long like Charles Page or Philip Williams but STILL – if the demoniac is not dealt with EVEN if scandal occurs – and occur it shall – and they leave or are made to leave but their foundations stays intact in the church soon enough another person shows up from the un known, starts attending church and displays the same ofd jezebeliv behavior Seen it first time many times – the opening is there and it is almost like they are their to fill it once the old example has been displaced Never mind some dont believe it – missionaries has seen it FIRST HAND and until the demon is displaced, the house is cleaned and the spot is filled and occupied with sanctified believers they keep on coming – come to think about it what I just described is what Jesus was teaching about 7 more coming back and it turns to be worse I consulted a church on growth one time where the pastor said to me – brother its a jezebel thing – he said we have 6 they sit in a pentagon during service and one in the center directly across from the pulpit Go figure – still waiting on Neil Steven Lawrence to explain it from the video

      Charles Page come to Africa and you’ll see the real thing! In the church of God in Malawi they take baptism very seriously. Malawi is steeped in witchcraft and one of the poorest countries in the world. When the baptism service takes place people from all over come to see what’s going to happen. Often times before the new believer goes under the water evil spirits (that they have committed themselves to prior) start manifesting. They take them out of the water pray for deliverance and then go back to the water and get baptized. I guess this is better than any carnival ? that’s why people like to show up and watch what’s going to happen! No fog machines required!

      according to scripture I have scriptural authority equal to any African preacher. I refuse to be intimidated by your experiences in Africa…or Haiti…or any other country where witchcraft culture abounds.

      I practice my authority on a daily basis in America, which is being made better by my contribution. Ministry in Africa would be a cake walk for me.

      What you have said is quiet true but in order for total displacement to take place the church needs to be build solid foundations after the spirit(s) leave.
      Church is people and if people are really spirit filled, if people have gifts of discernment, even if a stranger pops in with old spirits in a new vessel(that is what demons do..shift from house to house, or vessel to vessel as long as doors are opened) then it is easier for church to deal with it.
      Here I am talking of a church where the spirits have been dealt with and driven away not a church which shakes hands, dances and pacify the spirits and this has to begin with the church leadership.
      It is not possible to drive away a friend you love: if the leadership(including the pastor) has a Jezebel spirit it won’t work.The principle of taking out FIRST the .boulder from own eye in order to be able to remove a matchstick from another is needed here.Continual abiding in the Word and continually battling the forces of evil by warfare prayers can help expose the Jezebel spirit.
      Like Joe Absher I also have had first encounter, real and dangerous encounter with this spirit…and it not the common shrieking type of demons…they can show their arrogance and pride and insolence and no fear attitude, mocking and scornful and most of the times intimidating…They fight back.They don’t run away when you appear…
      But I have learnt over time that these kind of things are better left for someone to find out and prove themselves.
      I have seen and have heard and what I have seen and heard I testify is true, so let the one who doubts seek and find for themselves….
      I can never rub off my mind the vision I saw some years back of a feline like lady stretched on a sofa and the words VAMPIRE written on her face…and the Lord God said ” that is the spirit you are battling with..

      Brother Page doesn’t believe in exorcism but the Bible has scriptures to show that they worked.
      Jesus cast out demons from people who were dead and mute and crippled and they regained what they lost..
      The apostles did the same…cast out demons of various kinds and brought healings…deliverance.
      You say they are ” pretended expellings”
      I know demons lie just seasoned criminals lie.
      When the police squeeze the balls of a seasoned criminal he will tell the truth.That is what demons do when under fire..speak the truth.
      When Jesus asked them.their name they didn’t lie, they said “Legion” .

      Not only in Malawi but anywhere in the world(USA) notwithstanding, if a real anointed minister of God commands demons to come out in the name of Jesus, they will succumb and come out..
      The problem is we have religious preachers and teachers not disciples of Christ…
      Look what happens when a real disciple of Christ appears//
      And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed.

      I love my brother and we have a lot in common but when we come to excorcisms which I have done first hand although I wouldnt call it excorcisms but the casting out of demons in the name of Jesus, I pray that let each of us believe what we believe..
      Nevertheless in the world we live now there is such a great deception in the area of demon casting that it needs divine revelation to differentiate the true from the false.
      Many satanic priests are in ministry and they are doing the same..casting out demons in the name of Jesus(?)

      all we need is to follow scripture and not experience. Interpret scripture not experience. Yet the movement today is experience over interpretations.

      The ideal of a relative belief system is a modern relative concept of multi-belief-ism.

      Charles Page myself and my gospel team Eagles’ Wings Gospel Team were preaching a series of Crusades down at the coast of Kenya (which is filled with Muslims).

      One evening as I was praying for people at the altar in a place where our Regional Overseer (Benea Alukwe) has his church (Likoni), there were about 30 people in the altar wanting prayer from me after I preaced the Word. All of a sudden a woman hit the ground and started rolling around. I jumped down off the stage with my interpreter, and begin to lay hands on the woman and rebuke the demon(s) that were troubling her.

      Now keep in mind that whole area speaks Swahili and their own mother tongue tribal language. English is only learned as a subject in school if they go to school.

      So as I began to bind the demons – funny enough many of the people in the altar turned their attention toward the woman and also began to pray against the demons! The demon(s) in the woman were speaking in English (in a Swahili area) – meaning it was speaking at me – and saying “I am not gonna go! I am not going! Etc. I knew right away that the evil spirit(s) were speaking to me because they were using English. They were trying to frighten me. I did not shrink back but continue to pray for the woman. We all prayed for some minutes. She calmed down and sat up.

      Then the church elders and area pastors took her over to the side of the stage and continued to pray for her while we closed out the meeting. Sometimes it’s important to get demon troubled people out of the way because the spirits want to disrupt the meeting.

      Later her testimony came out. She had been hearing voices for sometime and when our Crusade was proclaiming the Gospel and praising the Lord at such high volume the whole area of Likoni was hearing, including her. She came to the meeting and got delivered. She became a long-term member of the Likoni Church of God!! The power of Jesus name has manifest throughout the ages, for Jesus is the Truth of the Ages!

      May I ask you soldier do the scripture attest that Paul cast out a spirit of divination from a slave girl?Is that experimental testimony?..Yes it is a recorded event in the scripture but didn’t Jesus say a believer will cast out demons?
      The scriptures of which you want us to.follow say one of the signs of a believer is to cast out demons..Surely it didn’t end with the apostles for if that is the misinterpretation, then salvation should also be interpreted as having ended with the apostles…
      Can one claim to be a believer and can’t cast out a demon?
      The scripture says ” these signs shall follow a believer…”
      and lists the signs and one of them is the casting out of demons…
      Didnt Phillip and the apostles cast out demons AFTER THE FALL OF THE TEMPLE IN JERUSALEM?..

Scripture is clear an angel of the Lord will cast the devil into the bottomless pit and after the thousand year reign the devil will be let out. Currently the devil and his minions are roaming the earth.This is the worst period Christian persecution in human history and it will only get worse until the antichrist seven-year kingdom I which time they will get so bad that as Jesus said, even the Saints (those who become believers during the tribulation) might fall away if he did not come back.

      Dear brother Charles there is no GREATER DECEPTION than that of saying Satan is imprisoned in Hades bound and chained in the bottomless pit and that there are not any demons to cast out…
      If I was in the States I would have called you for a spritual duel to establish who has been deceived and by the looks of it, I am sure that strong deceiving spirit in you hiding under the guise of scriptural understanding will speak out and come out in Jesus name…
      Scriptures are plenty to say the devil is loose.: he is like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. The devil is loose blinding the minds of unbelievers(hopefully not you…though sometimes one can believe a lie and yet say it is a truth…and still claim to be a believer.)
      1 John 5:19 clearly says that the world Is under the influence of the evil one.Is the evil one influencing the world from Hades?
      When Paul wanted to go on.a mission trip he said this//
      For we wanted to come to you—certainly I, Paul, did, again and again—but Satan blocked our way.
      1 Thessalonians 2:18 NIV//
      This was years after Christ left this world…and yet Satan blocked Paul…Did Satan block Paul while bound and chained?
      Finally brother Charles lets ruminate on the following verse and see if the devil is bound and chained….
      Again the Apostle Paul says in part,
      .//……….. you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the RULER of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is NOW at work in those who are disobedient.
      Ephesians 2:2 NIV
      //
      I am not English but the Word NOW speaks of the present time…
      Soldier, you need to revaluate your theology…
      I have quoted scripture not experience….?
      By the way if the devil and his demons are bound and chained who is behind the killings and restrictions in the world?…

    I know of course that actual dedicated witches attend churches and try to distract the plans and bring down people. The video teaching was not really focusing on that, but I was emphasizing that some people who call themselves Christians and think that they actually are, still have the same attitude as witches.

    Generally speaking, Africa has a culture that was founded in witchcraft and has adopted Christianity and is slowly being transformed by the gospel. (In historical terms it is actually quickly being transformed – only 150 years)
    They say, “in Africa Christianity is a mile wide and an inch deep.”
    Africa is now the largest Christian continent (in total population) in the world.

    America was founded on Christian principles and has flowered as the greatest example of Christian influenced culture and governmental principles in the history of the world – without a doubt!
    But now in this post modern times it is rapidly sliding downward to adopt ideologies and worship which can only be characterized as “inspired by witchcraft!” Sadly it appears that this slide may take less than 150 years – in my opinion it will end with the rapture!

    Jesus’ Power Over Demons Today
    Ten years ago this month, my team Eagles’ Wings Gospel Team and I were preaching a series of Crusades down at the coast of Kenya (which is filled with Muslims).

    One evening as I was praying for people at the altar in a place where our Regional Overseer (Benea Alukwe) has his church (Likoni), there were about 30 people in the altar wanting prayer from me after I preached the Word. All of a sudden, a woman hit the ground and started rolling around. I jumped down off the stage with my interpreter and began to lay hands on the woman, rebuking the demon(s) that were troubling her.

    Now, keep in mind, that whole area of Kenya speaks Swahili and their own mother tongue (tribal) language. English is only learned as a subject in school.

    As I began to bind the demons, funny enough, many of the needy people in the altar turned their attention toward the woman and also began to pray against the demons! The demon(s) in the woman were speaking in English (in a Swahili area) – saying, “I am not gonna go! I am not going!” Etc. I knew right away that the evil spirit(s) were speaking to me because they were using English. They were trying to intimidate me. I did not shrink back but continued to pray for the woman.

    Here are the sermon notes for my message in the video (it’s not word for word:

    Christian Witches

    Give Examples of Western Witchcraft > the belief in Christ brought the people out of their witchcraft mind & replaced it with eternal values.

    I. Summary of Witchcraft:

    * A.White Magic:
    1. 1. Medicine Men / Herbalist > bad when it invokes spirits
    2. 2. Magician > playing tricks & using deception
    3. 3. Fortuneteller / Tarot Card Reader / Diviner > to see the future

    B. Black magic:
    4. 4.Witchdoctor
    5. 5.Sorcerer
    6. 6.Satanist

    C. Foundation of Witchcraft:
    1. 1. Based on jealousy, fear, hatred, superstition, fear of death, idolatry, false understanding of God

    2. 2. Practiced mostly on family members and close acquaintances

    3. 3. Mostly has power over those who believe in it

    4. 4. Approaches spiritual & physical world w/ attitude of “giving to get.” (white goat, black chicken). *****
    5. 5. Remember Simon the sorcerer in the book of Acts when he saw the spirit move on the people he approached the Apostles to buy that spiritual power from them. Peter rebuked him for this attitude. *****
    6. 6.A person who believes & practices witchcraft is proud & does not want to give the control to God, but wants to control their own reality.

    7. 7. A person who has a witchcraft mind hides their true motives and cannot risk being transparent for fear they will be harmed by others.

    II. We have Witches in the Church
    * A. their mind has not been renewed & their culture & thinking is still on the level of Witchcraft.
    * B. the main reason people don’t tithe is because of greediness based in witchcraft > “if she tithes and he tithes and they tithe – the pastor will have more than us.”

    III. 3 Scriptural Examples:

    A. Cain & Abel – Worshipping without being concerned about your relationship with God & other people is a form of witchcraft.

    Cain did not worship like God told him to worship; he brought vegetables instead of the blood of an animal.
    Gen. 4:5-7 “So Cain was very angry, and his face was downcast. Then the Lord said to Cain, “Why are you angry? Why is your face downcast? If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must master it.”

    The proper attitude is:
    Romans 12:9 “Honor one another above yourselves.”

    Romans 12:15 “Rejoice with those who rejoice, mourn with those who mourn.”

    John 11:47-48 “Then the chief priests and the Pharisees called a meeting of the Sanhedrin. “What are we accomplishing?” they asked. “Here is this man performing many miraculous signs. If we let him go on like this, everyone will believe in him, and then the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation.”

    Ecclesiastes 8:10 “Then too, I saw the wicked buried—those who used to come and go from the holy place and receive praises in the city where they did this. This too is meaningless.”

    It doesn’t matter what others are doing – or not doing > what matters is: “are you doing God’s will?”

    I John 4:20 says, “If anyone says, ‘I love God,’ yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen.”

    B. Saul & David –Christian witches abuse power. They try to worship while being more concerned about what men think & want than what God thinks & wants. > This is a form of witchcraft.

    1. Saul tried to use worship for his own gain and lost his kingdom.

    a. He was impatient & unwilling to wait upon the Lord & his servant, Samuel.

    b. He was afraid of what his men would think instead of what God thinks.

    c. When the Spirit of the Lord had been removed from him he was desperate to hear from the Lord, so he consulted a medium to try and hear from Samuel (who had already died). This was forbidden in the Law & an obvious deception.

    – Christian witches are willing to be deceived because they don’t believe what God says about the afterlife & about spiritual things.

    d. Illustration:
    Ugali to babu. This is self deception.

    1. But Jesus said to the thief on the cross, “Today you will be with me in Paradise.”

    2. Paul taught, “it is appointed unto man once to die and then the judgement.”

    2. David worshipped the Lord with his whole heart throughout his life time.

    a. As he danced before the Lord he was not worried about his own dignity.

    b. As he sacrificed to the Lord after the plague stopped, he was unwilling to sacrifice something that cost him nothing (II Sam. 24:24)

    c. The attitude David had is opposite of the attitude of XN Witches!

    C. “In My name . . .” John 14:12-14; 16:24 – does not involve manipulation but instead involves all that is in Jesus’ name > His name is His will. Claiming His name is prayer in accordance with all that He is > His being
    – XN Witches use the name of Jesus like a magic formula!

    D. “You will do greater things than I have done.” John 14:12b
    – XN Witches can never feel comfortable giving power to someone lower than them!

    E. “All power has been given to Me . . . . therefore go.” (Mat. 28:18-20)
    – XN Witches forget that Jesus has all power —therefore it is ridiculous to try and hoard power.

    F. “You will receive power to be My witnesses (martyria)” Acts 1:8 – this is not power for powers’ sake but power to die so Jesus can be seen.
    -XN Witches refuse to die to themselves – in the Kingdom this is the true path to greatness.
    Saul try to make himself great and lost his kingdom; David trusted in the Lord and the Lord made him great.

    C. Judas & John – XN Witches worship without realizing God is before them > this is a form of Witchcraft.

    The Bible says we are the temple of God.
    The Bible says, “we are seated with Christ in God, in heavenly places.”
    * XN Witches don’t “practice the presence of God” as a guiding principle in life.
    * God lived for 3 years in front of Judas, yet he did not realize the presence of God!

    1. Judas: Don’t feel sorry for Judas; there are many Judases among us today!

    Judas lacked a true love for Jesus. “Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friend.” (John 15:13)

    2. John is called the beloved disciple, not because Jesus loved him more than He loved the other disciples, but because John loved Jesus more than the other disciples loved Jesus.

    a. I John 4:18-21 “There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. 19 We love because he first loved us. 20 If anyone says, “I love God,” yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen. 21 And he has given us this command: Whoever loves God must also love his brother.”

    Christian Witches claim a relationship with Christ Jesus but they have not:

    CAIN
    1. fully surrendered
    2. realized the true nature of worship
    SAUL
    3. learned how to prefer the truth and be honest before God
    4. feared God more than man
    JUDAS
    5. practiced God’s presence
    6. allow love to be the guiding principle in their life

    THANK YOU Neil Steven Lawrence Isara Mo for the detail sermon notes I will go past point C but first lets talk about these – are they in church

    Summary of Witchcraft:
    A.White Magic:
    1. Medicine Men / Herbalist > bad when it invokes spirits
    2. Magician > playing tricks & using deception
    3. Fortuneteller / Tarot Card Reader / Diviner > to see the future
    B. Black magic:
    4. Witchdoctor
    5. Sorcerer

    Should we go further to ask about
    – yoga
    – martial arts
    – herbs and herbal living? especially
    – essential oils

    should this be considered of the devil or is this going too far? http://www.pentecostaltheology.com/has-essential-oils-hit-your-church-yet/

      Well Troy, I skip one, two, and stop at 3(Fortune telling/ divination).
      If you do a close examination of most modern day prophets and prophecies, it is not surprising that you will find a spirit of divination behind the prophecies..
      The slave girl who had a spirit of divination used to follow Paul and colleagues RIGHTLY prophesying ” these are servants of the most High God…” She was correct in her prophecy…
      May I comment a bit on item 1 (invoking of spirits).
      When Saul went to see the witch of Endor she invoked the spirit of Samwel from the “ground”…and Saul had a lengthy conversation with “Samwel”(1 Sam 28(?)….and the INFORMATION which the spirit of Samwel gave was correct information..
      This was possibly a FAMILIAR SPIRIT…
      If you closely watch and examine and investigate the prophetic trends in the world today the presence and operation of these two spirits, the familiar spirit and the spirit of divination in the churches is quite widespread especially in ministries..and people love it..
      There are “ministers of God” who can give you information about your bank account and birth date but will not know your name until you tell them.
      Check out how they do it..They ask a man “What is your name….” The moment they are given the name they begin to ” prophesy” about the person’s birth date..relatives..past events etc etc..
      Most people believe these people and think they are being used by the Holy Spirit…the Holy Spirit who doesn’t know a person’s name but knows their bank account number?..
      But these are not dangerous as those ministers who invoke demons(spirits) and extract information from them.I have seen it and know that it is being practised by some .It is pure Shamanism…and these people though they call themselves “born again Christians” they are down to earth Shamans..
      May I revisit item 5, Sorcerer…and say this: a lot of ministries and ministers who are self run, self managed especially in this part of the world use sorcery in their practises.In Acts 8 there is a story of Simon the Sorcerer and if you analyse what is said of this Simon Magnus, you will note it in these ministries and ministers: they manipulate, control and amaze people with their ” powers”…The carnality that you will see in these ministers and their ministries will prove to you that the powers they operate with is not from the Holy Spirit…

      Troy Day
      As to yoga, martial arts and herbs and herbal living..especially essential.oils I would say that there is no practise without knowledge, and there is no knowledge without there being a spirit behind it (You may argue) and there is no spirit without a kingdom and of the kingdom’s there are just two,, the kingdom of light and the kingdom of darkness..
      After saying that I would ask a man to check what their Bible says regarding these things then decide for himself…
      I had once been in yoga and meditation and had done all the asanas and followed a strict vegetarian diet as a spiritual pursuit.
      Way back 1973 while a very young man I had dabbled a bit in martial.arts and karate as a sport….
      But all.these things are now things of the past by the grace of the living God..
      Essential.oils / annoiting oil has become like a charm for most Pentecostals, some even walk about with very little bottles to use as magic wands.
      Citizens of the kingdom of darkness like to wear amulets…charms.
      It seems this practise has taken a new form in the modern churche whereby people now use essential oil/ anointing oil as charms and amulets..Same old traditions, new platform.
      There is no harm in using anointing oil or essential oil and it is not sinful at all but continual dependence on the stuff might deviate into idolatry…which is a sin. That is my worry.

    OK Neil Steven Lawrence going further on the sermon notes with Isara Mo and Joe Absher

    C. Foundation of Witchcraft:
    1. Based on jealousy, fear, hatred, superstition, fear of death, idolatry, false understanding of God

    HOW many such we have in church today – especially among preachers who are jealous of others anointing ? You dont say jealous without jail in it

    THEN HE SAYS

    II. We have Witches in the Church
    * A. their mind has not been renewed – thre is the NEED FOR ENTIRE SANCTIFICATION Only un sanctified person can submit to jezebel witching spirit and be left behind in the rapture

    Jezebel Uses this Generation to Control

    Jezebel wants to Silence Your Prophetic Voice

    Jezebel Spirit is Waging War Against America

    Jezebel Is Stepping Out to Oppose Revival

    * B. the main reason people don’t tithe is because of greediness based in witchcraft > “if she tithes and he tithes and they tithe – the pastor will have more than us.” – and this is where it GETS serious when you start talking about ppls money…

    Philip Williams Nelson Banuchi the article

    Axios noted that Trump got 81% of the evangelical vote in 2016, and the evangelical community is close to 25% of the entire American electorate. A campaign advisor told Axios, “There is a significant evangelical outreach effort. It’s going to be state specific. It’s going to exist in important battleground states and focus on churches and areas where we can have an impact. African American outreach will be a component of that. … It’s robust, and it will be well-funded.”

    A campaign official stated to Axios, “In 2016, it was more of a surrogate driven, PR-driven type thing. This is about finding voters. That’s why a lot of our efforts are going toward collecting data at rallies, collecting data over peer-to-peer texting, and collecting data within our coalition groups.”

    An RNC official added that the RNC is querying members of Congress and leaders of church communities as to how to reach the huge evangelical community. Axios reported that the RNC will feature “signature Trump Victory Leadership Institute (TVLI) training” at faith-based events around the nation.

    A Pew Research poll from mid-March found a whopping 69% of evangelical voters thought Trump was doing a good job as president.

    In mid-June, Ralph Reed, head of the Faith and Freedom Coalition, said 2020 would see the “most ambitious and far-reaching voter mobilization effort” in the evangelical community’s history, as The Washington Times reported. He stated that plans called for the registration of 1 million evangelical voters, as volunteers knocked on 3 million doors and placed literature in over 117,000 churches in key states. He hoped around 30 million people would be contacted.

    As governing.com reported in April, evangelicals have moved even more strongly toward President Trump since 2016:

    Exit polls showed that 75 percent cast their ballots for Republican candidates. That number includes evangelicals of all ages, but surveys taken shortly before the election showed that 78 percent of white evangelicals ages 18 to 29 identified as Republican. “Did we see white evangelicals moving toward the middle of the political spectrum in 2018? “Clearly no,” says Ryan Burge, a political scientist at Eastern Illinois University (and a Baptist minister). “White evangelicals are more Republican now than they were two years ago.”

    Burge, noting that the percentage of evangelicals in 45 states rose between 2000 and 2010, posited that the rise came from two sources: Latino evangelicals, whose numbers soared in Arizona, Florida, Maryland and Ohio, and the concomitant move by leftists congregating in big cities such as New York, Philadelphia and Chicago.

    In May, White House spokesman Hogan Gidley commented on the closeness evangelicals felt for Trump, saying, “I think there’s a mutual respect. I think they have a good relationship because of the fact that he has delivered on the promises he made during the campaign.”

    In addition, three powerful members of Trump’s administration are evangelicals: Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Education Secretary Betsy DeVos and former press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
