Tony Perkins (president of the Family Research Council) says that, contrary to Trump’s PUBLIC remarks about states deciding the abortion issue, he has “no doubt” (based on PRIVATE conversations w/ Trump) that Trump wld sign a national anti-abortion bill if Congress passes one. 1/ 2/ Link for post 1.

Two clips posted today concern me. The first is an interview by Tucker Carlson (Roger Stone’s close associate) of pastor Doug Wilson, a controversial self-described “Christian Nationalist” & proponent of “biblical patriarchy” who has built a mini fiefdom in Moscow, Idaho. 1/ Image 2/ Here’s what Doug Wilson (founder of Christ Church) wants everyone to take away from the interview.

Trump/Heritage alum William Wolfe says the Houston Chronicle’s explosive report on sex abuse in the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC), including 700 alleged victims, doesn’t necessarily show that the SBC has an abuse crisis. (Instead, he says that “wokeness” is the problem.) 1/ 2/

JFC. Kevin Roberts, President of Heritage (lead organizer of Project 2025), has said that men & women currently employed by the federal government are part of “the secret Communist movement inside America,” that Senator Joe McCarthy largely got things right, & that Viktor Orban shld be celebrated for causing a “Christian conservative political turn” in Hungary. 1/ nytimes.com/2024/01/21/mag…Image 2/ When pressed by the NYT, Kevin Roberts sheepishly walks back his claim (made to a right wing audience) about men and women employed by the US government being “communists” (now he calls them “socialists”).

😳 Oklahoma School Superintendent Ryan Walters is in cahoots w/ Heritage (lead organizer of Project 2025). Heritage “has been an incredible partner to help us develop what the plans are for the state for our schools,” he recently gushed to Heritage president Kevin Roberts. 1/ 2/ Thread.

Here, William Wolfe estimates that 60-70% of pastors in the Southern Baptist Convention, America’s largest evangelical denomination, read Doug Wilson, a controversial pastor who expressly promotes “biblical patriarchy” (men lead, women submit) & “Christian Nationalism.” 1/ 2/ Link for post 1.

Doug Wilson is an influential proponent of “Christian Nationalism” & biblical patriarchy” (men lead & women submit) who also promotes “Smashmouth incrementalism” as a means to eventually banning all abortion, without exceptions for rape, incest, or saving the mother’s life. 1/ 2/ Thread.

Pastor Doug Wilson is a leading proponent of “Christian Nationalism” & a top connector for an influential network of self-described “Christian Nationalists” & their sympathizers & enablers. Here, he advises that women must be “submissive” to their husbands. 1/ #biblicalpatriarchy 2/ Link for post 1.

SBC president Bart Barber thinks a 10 year old rape victim should be forced to give birth. But he isn’t extreme enough for Trump/Heritage alum William Wolfe & Dusty Deevers bc he supports an exception to save the life of the mother & doesn’t want to charge women & children who get abortions with murder. Wolfe & Deevers hope to remove & replace Barber in June. 1/Image 2/

Moms for Liberty advisor James Lindsay coined “OK Groomer” as an anti-LGBTQ + smear & was an early proponent of anti-CRT & anti-DEI messaging.

He nonetheless opposes the cabal of self-described “Christian Nationalists” (CNs) led by Stephen Wolfe, William Wolfe, Andrew Torba, Andrew Isker, etc. bc they lump atheists (like Lindsay) in w/ Jews & Muslims. Below, he correctly identifies many of the people in this CN network. 1/Image 2/ “Yeah that part where Locke says that civil govs shouldn’t tolerate atheists was great” - Stephen Wolfe (PerfInjust), author of “The Case for Christian Nationalism” Image

Um, you just said you support William Wolfe’s organization. As you know, Wolfe is a self-described “Christian Nationalist” whose aspirations extend far beyond your denomination, which he likely sees as a stepping stone to bigger things. He also opposes ALL abortion ban exceptions, which is pretty fringe. 1/ 2/

Russ Vought, a top Project 2025 leader, “laid out his vision for immigration restriction last year in explicitly Christian nationalist terms… Last month, he told Charlie Kirk in a podcast episode titled ‘Why ‘Christian Nationalist’ should be a compliment’ that ‘as a country, we’ve been too secular.’” 1/ talkingpointsmemo.com/news/what-exac…Image 2/ “Vought added that Christianity, in his view, should define the American nation — ‘Christian nation-ism would probably be the most accurate aspect of what I believe.’”

Author Stephen Wolfe & Trump/Heritage alum William Wolfe are the two “Wolves” of “Christian Nationalism” (their label, not mine). Both are close allies of far right pastor Doug Wilson—an influential proponent of Christian Nationalism and biblical patriarchy—who kickstarted the so-called “classical Christian” education movement. It’s time for the MSM to start reporting on the two “Wolves,” Doug Wilson, and their rapidly expanding sphere of influence. 1/Image

The phony moral outrage over CRT was largely a reaction to—and deflection from—the legitimate outrage over George Floyd’s murder in the Summer of 2020. 1/ 2/ Trump signed his anti-CRT executive order in September 2020. It’s all about narrative control and trying to remain on the offense. Image

😳 In 2022, far right Christian investor Nate Fischer of “American Reformer” wrote a glowing review of Stephen Wolfe’s “The Case for Christian Nationalism” book published by Canon Press (far right pastor Doug Wilson’s family publishing company) So it’s kinda concerning that Fischer is one of the main people behind an effort to replace the current leadership of the SBC (America’s largest evangelical denomination) w/ someone more likeminded. 1/Image 2/ Far right Christian investor Nate Fischer of “American Reformer” wrote one of the blurbs used by Canon Press to promote Stephen Wolfe’s book, “The Case for Christian Nationalism.” canonpress.com/products/the-c…

Even Josh Buice, a far right Baptist pastor, opposes the far right Christian Nationalism movement (led by the likes of author Stephen Wolfe, Trump/Heritage alum William Wolfe, OK Senator Dusty Deevers, & others) due to concerns as to who decides what = “real” Christianity. 1/ 2/ Link to post 1.
