Far-left Rep. Cori Bush claims she's a faith healer, cured cancer in her autobiography

WASHINGTON, DC- Anyone who has followed Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) knows she is a legend in her own mind. However her latest battle with the truth is beyond belief, even for her. 

Bush, who at one time justified her expenses for personal security as necessary because, “I have had attempts on my life and I have too much work to do.” This was as she was calling to defund the police. Of course, there were no documented cases of anyone attempting to kill Bush. 

In her autobiography “The Forerunner: A Story of Pain and Perseverance in America,” Bush claims she performed multiple miracles as a religious faith healer, the New York Post reports. We’ll take things that never happened for $1,000, Alex. 

“As I learned how to apply God’s Word to my life in new ways, I better understood the power that was already residing in me,” Bush wrote. “It was there, waiting for me to acknowledge it, to use it. I had the confidence to heal others with God’s power.” 

Bush then related the story of a toddler she met during a prayer service in St. Louis, sadly for her, had not been killed in the womb by her mother. Bush is a pro-abortion zealot who has supported abortion up until the time of birth. So her waxing poetic about curing a toddler smacks of hypocrisy. 

“The child had a bleed in her brain, shortly after she was born, and 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.” 

Right out of the Oral Roberts playbook. 

“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,” Bush 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.” 

It seems that God would have better individuals to work miracles through instead of a hateful loon like Bush, but we digress. 

In yet another yarn Bush spun, she wrote of curing a woman inundated with tumors. 

“One woman whom we met had several visible tumors on her torso. She was due to have surgery but lacked health insurance and [was] 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 the tumor. It shrank along with the others on her body.” 

Despite Bush’s claims, nobody has come forward to confirm her stories. 

Bush’s book was released in 2022, however it sold only 729 copies in the first week. She received a “whopping” $50,000 advance on the book, according to her financial disclosures. Apparently most right-thinking Americans aren't interested in reading her Marxist drivel. 

When the book was released, Bush, a favorite of the left-wing media complex, made appearances on The View and The Daily Show and the book was touted by such “luminaries” as Whoopi Goldberg, Margaret Hoover and Joy Reid. As of the date of this publication, the book has only received 57 reviews on Amazon. 

Bush has been affiliated with a “faith-healing” church in Missouri. In 2021, the lead pastor told the Washington Free Beacon that he cured her of COVID through faith healing over the phone. 

Bush, a member of the far-left radical “Squad,” a collection of Democrat Marxist, anti-American zealots, is currently embroiled in a competitive primary against Wesley Bell, the prosecuting attorney for St. Louis County. In fact, some polls show Bush trailing by a double-digit margin. Should that lead for Bell prevail, it would be good news for the country to have one less Marxist radical in the House. 

As to her story about “faith healing,” some doubt that ever happened. 

“I don’t think what she’s claiming happened,” said Dr. Monica Gandhi, a professor of medicine at the University of California San Francisco. “Definitely as a physician I would encourage people to seek treatment for cancer and other ailments.”
