The New York Times reports:
Pat Robertson, a Baptist minister with a passion for politics who marshaled Christian conservatives into a powerful constituency that helped Republicans capture both houses of Congress in 1994, died on Thursday at his home in Virginia Beach, Va. He was 93. His death was announced by the Christian Broadcasting Network, which Mr. Robertson founded in 1960.
Mr. Robertson built an entrepreneurial empire based on his Christian faith, encompassing a university, a law school, a cable channel with broad reach, and more. A product of a family with politics in its veins, he also waged a serious though unsuccessful campaign for the Republican presidential nomination in 1988, resigning as a Baptist minister in the face of criticism about mixing church and state.

Pat Robertson–who cheered the spread of AIDS as "God weeding his garden," blamed 9/11 on feminists and the ACLU, blamed Hurricane Katrina on abortion, and equated same-sex marriage with pedophilia–has died. Happy Pride Month? https://t.co/SqJJU32nPv
