A network of ultrawealthy Christian donors is spending nearly $12 million to mobilize Republican-leaning voters and purge more than a million people from the rolls in key swing states, aiming to tilt the 2024 election in favor of former President Donald Trump.
These previously unreported plans are the work of a group named Ziklag, a little-known charity whose donors have included some of the wealthiest conservative Christian families in the nation, including the billionaire Uihlein family, who made a fortune in office supplies, the Greens, who run Hobby Lobby, and the Wallers, who own the Jockey apparel corporation. Recipients of Ziklag’s largesse include Alliance Defending Freedom, which is the Christian legal group that led the overturning of Roe v. Wade, plus the national pro-Trump group Turning Point USA and a constellation of right-of-center advocacy groups.
God I love the way that ProPublica is shining a light in all these dark spaces.
Any time I see an article posted from ProPublica, I just throw it an upvote and read it later. They’re always on-point.
read it later.
Yeah, they really do concentrate on long form reporting. Maybe I should post in /c/longreads
They’re definitely “quality over quantity”, and I love that about them. They operate in the exact opposite way of the 24/7 cable news.
But yeah, I can’t always commit to reading the whole article at the time, so I throw the upvote out to show support/ boost it since their reporting is always excellent and well-researched and save it for later when I have more time.
The “7 moutains mandate” is the cancer of Christian theology. It should be deounced by every denomination.
Ah yes the rich Christian… What a contradiction in terms. How bout, rich folk masquerading as Christian.
if only the fools would actually list to that guy they hold as the example of how to behave…
I have no words that could possibly convey how disgusting Christian Nationalism is. It’s truly depressing that our only recourse in this country is to go after this organization’s tax exempt status. At what point will the pendulum swing from freedom of religion to eradicating all religion in this country?
The
Talibanwould approve this message.
