Since then, Moore has rebranded himself as defender of the soul of evangelical Protestantism.

…ompetently testify.” The document goes on to specify that these claims involve things Daniels has said in interviews about paranormal investigation, psychic practices, and practicing witchcraft. In a June 2021 Facebook post, Daniels replied: “Let me get this straight… They are going to use my religious belie[fs] and profession to discriminate against me…” I should note that Avenatti’s lawyers probably don’t care what her beliefs actually indicate…

…s of Whiteness’ but the ‘wages of empire’ too. For Ramaswamy, this has involved a remarkable contortion to force Hinduism into a form familiar to White nationalists: as simplistically monotheistic, laced with caste and Brahminical pride, and repeatedly aligned with “Judeo-Christian values.” The political trajectory of the Hindu far-right could also portend the broader long-term direction of the U.S. far-right. In a moment where both major parties…

Brian Dahle in California. “When we are born again,” says Sheets, in a 2021 “Daily Prayer with Dutch” video, “we are no longer simply humans… we are a new race of supernatural beings called Christians.” NAR is about the organization of this supernatural race into the Ekklesia, whose purpose he says is “managing and governing the earth.” In fairness, Sh…
