Pastor Tells Kash Patel to Go Back Home and Worship His Sand Demons This Diwali – Twitchy

In 2019, President Joe Biden released a lengthy statement saying that “Jill and I send warm wishes for a joyous celebration — Happy Diwali and Saal Mubarak.” In 2025, FBI Director Kash Patel wished everyone a happy Diwali, “celebrating the Festival of Lights around the world, as good triumphs over evil.”

Patel is Hindu and was born in New York to Indian immigrant parents. One poster, Pastor Joel Webbon, senior pastor of Covenant Bible Church and founder of Right Response Ministries, told him to go back home and worship his sand demons. The government has been very strict about calling out Islamophobia, but hasn’t tackled Hinduphobia.

Go back home and worship your sand demons.

Get out of my country. https://t.co/20xEPWQtNt

Less than one percent of India is composed of sandy desert. The Middle East on the other hand…

Should you move since you seem to find freedom of religion, protected by our constitution, so unbearable?

He apparently has a YouTube show every Monday. Don’t fail to miss it.

Lighten up, Francis. It’s the Hindu New Year. You don’t have to celebrate it. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
