These insane claims have resurfaced…
Missouri Congresswoman Cori Bush (D) is facing criticism over claims she made in her 2022 autobiography while working as a “faith healer.”
In her 2022 autobiography “The Forerunner: A Story of Pain and Perseverance in America” the radical lawmaker credited herself for a series of miracles, one instance included helping a disabled toddler to walk.
“The child had had a bleed in her brain, shortly after she was born, and so couldn’t walk. She had never taken a step in her life,” Bush wrote. “I carried the child from the prayer room in the back of the church out into the sanctuary . . . ‘Walk,’ I said gently to the three-year-old girl, ‘you will walk.’ And this girl took her first step. Then another, and another. She walked.”
“Her grandmother walked into the sanctuary just in time to see the child take about two dozen steps. She screamed, and then she kept screaming,” she continued. “When she caught her breath, she looked at me in wonder and said ‘Praise God.’ She grabbed her granddaughter and walked with her out of the church.”
Another example was Bush healing a woman from multiple tumors.
“One woman whom we met had several visible tumors on her torso. She was due to have surgery but lacked health insurance and living in the park. One of the tumors was particularly painful to her. I laid hands on her and prayed, and I felt that my hand was no longer touching a tumor. It shrank along with the others on her body,” Bush recounted.
The “Squad” member suggested that this was done through the power of God within her.
Watch:
Bush’s controversial history as a faith healer resurfaced less than two months away from the Missouri primary election on Aug. 6. Bush is currently struggling against primary challenger Wesley Bell both in the polls and in campaign funding, Fox News reports.
Though Bush’s autobiography was released in 2022, the book only sold 729 copies in its first week, according to the New York Post.
The Missouri lawmaker is reportedly under investigation by the Justice Department over her alleged misuse of campaign funds. (RELATED: DOJ Investigating Squad Member Cori Bush)
