Sen. Ron Johnson, again today, says he's "hoping" his taxpayer-funded investigation will impact the election.

"People need to take a look at this report very carefully and understand what the ramifications are for electing Joe Biden as president.”

It will “certainly help Donald Trump win reelection and certainly be pretty good, I would say, evidence about not voting for Vice President Biden.”

8/14
“We’ve got to speed It up because we got an election coming, and people have a right to know before they
cast their ballot.”

The strongest democracies fund journalism as a common good -- not a commodity.
The US has been ranked as a "flawed democracy" for quite some time:

weforum.org/agenda/2017/02…
While other democracies have recognized the value of public media systems, America is a major outlier.

Despite having the world's largest GDP, America spends a comparatively miniscule fraction—less than 1/2 of a percent—on public media funding.

A hugely consequential case for the separation of church and state -- that is being pushed by the same legal outfits behind the overturn of Roe.

👉Oklahoma’s Catholic Charter School Asks U.S. Supreme Court for Review

@The74 the74million.org/article/oklaho…
Oklahoma is also the place where Bibles -- a certain kind that might include royalties back to Trump -- are being mandated in all classrooms.

Reprising some of this reporting on the actors behind this case:

The Alliance Defending Freedom helped develop arguments that led to the end of Roe v. Wade. It is significantly funded by donor-advised funds that allow their patrons to keep their identities secret but which receive large amounts of money from Leonard Leo-aligned groups.
Leo is the Federalist Society co-chair whose aligned network helped run campaigns to seat the current court.

St. Isidore is represented by the Notre Dame Religious Liberty Initiative, which was announced a few months before the confirmation of Barrett.

At Notre Dame, law professor Nicole Stelle Garnett -- a close friend of Barrett's -- has worked with St. Isidore from the start.

NEW: Leo-aligned groups attack D.C. attorney general who began investigating his network, a major funder of Project 2025.

👉The months-long offensive against DC AG Brian Schwalb includes:

🧵

politico.com/news/2024/03/2…
1. 12 of his Republican AG peers sent a letter warning Schwalb to stand down.
“I’ve never seen it in any context.”

2. GOP House chairs launched their own investigation of Schwalb’s investigation.

3. Conservative media wrote articles criticizing Schwalb on unrelated crime /
issues – based on a social media post from a top Leo lieutenant.

The nexus: a primary Leo-aligned group, the Concord Fund:

1. Concord & its predecessor have long been the Republican Attorney Generals Association’s biggest funder.

2. GOP Reps. Jordan & Comer announced a probe /

There's a larger context here that is critical.

One of the most important & overlooked religious movements of our time is the New Apostolic Reformation -- and its adherents do believe Trump came from God.
"Lance Wallnau’s book, 'God’s Chaos Candidate' played a significant role in solidifying evangelical support" in 2016 (Salon.)

It promotes a belief Christians have a mandate to control the “seven mountains” (dominionism) of society in order for Christ to return to Earth.
After 2020, NAR leaders hosted a series of prayer calls to try to help Trump stay in power. Dominionists also helped lead the Stop the Steal effort.

There is an entire network of “prophets” who for years have rallied “prayer warriors” around Trump.
