A sermon clip from Harlem's Pastor James David Manning is spreading rapidly across X after he reportedly accused the Democrat Party of weakening both American men and women.

The video, shared by conservative influencer account @dom_lucre, shows Manning delivering what is described as a pointed anti-Democrat address from his pulpit atATLAH World Missionary Church, on West 123rd Street in Harlem, New York.

The clip's circulation has triggered a wave of polarised responses on social media, splitting between supporters who praised Manning's candour and critics who questioned whether his language had any place behind a pulpit.

The post, published by @dom_lucre on X and captioned 'DEVELOPING,' attributed the following statement to Manning: 'I'm tired of the Democrat Party making b*tches out our women and p*ssies out our men.'

The quote, reported as alleged given the clip could not be independently verified in full context, immediately drew thousands of reactions. The post was flagged as a 'developing' story by the account that shared it, reflecting the speed at which the clip spread before any formal confirmation from Manning or ATLAH.

Reaction in the replies ranged from religious condemnation to outright hostility. One user, wrote: 'I'm sorry, but there's a way to say this without the inappropriate language being used in the Lord's House from the pulpit.' Another was more direct: 'Whether you agree with him or not, such foul things should not be said by an ordained "pastor" in care of his flock.'

I'm sorry, but there's a way to say this without the inappropriate language being used in the Lord's House from the pulpit.

The responses were not uniformly negative. Conservative accounts on X circulated the clip approvingly, framing Manning's statement as plain-speaking truth about the effects of progressive politics on American culture.

And he’s wrong how? Pretty much nailed it. Solid take.
