“If Every Church Said, ‘We Will Take Over Our Community'”: The (Christian Right) Revolution Starts Small and Local

By Frederick Clarkson

…of the Christian Right is targeting school boards and other local races in 2021. This trend is epitomized by the emergence of the Dominionist empire of the Woodland Park, Colorado-based Andrew Wommack, who has moved beyond his eponymous Andrew Wommack Ministries and built the unaccredited Charis Bible College along with his own political and broadcast operation, the Truth and Liberty Coalition, which he founded in 2017.

The Hellfire missile killed Zemari Ahmadi, an Afghan employee of the California-based aid organization Nutrition and Education International, and 9 of his relatives. Labeled a “righteous strike” by the US military…

Facing White Christianity’s Role in the January 6th Insurrection

By Robert P. Jones

On Jan. 20, 2021, President Joe Biden became the first commander in chief to use the words “white supremacy” in an inaugural address. Naming “the cry of racial justice four hundred years in the making” and its corollary, “a rise in political extremism,” he called out white supremacy as a “domestic terrorism that we must confront, and we will defeat.” The backdrop of the U.S. Capitol Building on that sunny, crisp winter day was as poignant as it h…

By Heron Greenesmith

…d fall. Did you know that twice as many transgender people were murdered in 2021 than in 2019? Here’s another fact: Did you know that, contrary to right-wing fears about its ubiquity, fewer than three hundred total teenagers under 18 in the entire country accessed gender-affirming top surgery in the past year? There are approximately three hundred thousand transgender youth in the United States. It’s not just that anti-trans disinformation is fact…

DeSantis is More Polished and Less Bombastic Than Trump — But is He Less of a Threat to Democracy?

By Annika Brockschmidt

…is often completely untethered from reality. Friedersdorf wrote in October 2021: “(DeSantis) remains a plausibly acceptable candidate for anti-Trump conservatives, in part because winning narrowly in a purple state has all but forced him to moderate his populism.” I’m not sure in which world DeSantis threatening companies with state sanctions, should they take a stand against his discriminatory policies, passing anti-LGBTQ legislation and policin…

As Tensions Escalate in the Balkans, the West Could Hand Putin a Valuable Weapon

By Katherine Kelaidis

…m them. And there’s evidence that these efforts are already afoot. Early in 2021 the National Catholic Register, a conservative publication, ran a piece entitled “The Silent Persecution of Christians in Kosovo,” which, while undeniably biased, was not entirely untrue. Likewise, in September, in a piece for The American Conservative about the war in Ukraine, Doug Bandow called on readers to “witness NATO’s aggressive war against Serbia over Kosovo….

Broken Courts, Big Lies and Genocide Rehearsal: A Review of 2022—And What We Can Expect From 2023

By Annika Brockschmidt

…e. The year began with the long shadow of January 6th of the previous year, 2021, hanging over the nation—and the continuous efforts by the Republican Party to try and discredit the committee tasked with investigating it. Their stance would not change over the course of the year, nor did they waver as testimony after testimony from Republican officials (whose careers in the party are now effectively over) piled up, forming a mountain of damning ev…

The Key to Understanding the Federalist Society Isn’t Originalism — It’s This 800-Year Old Tradition

By Peter Schwartz

…aid as much when he half-facetiously wrote the following, in response to my 2021 New Republic article on originalism and natural law: [Schwartz] singles out First Things (“the most intellectually serious and influential journal of the religious right”) as particularly nefarious, leading the way toward (this will shock readers) a politics informed by natural law. I’m happy to endorse his warnings to those on the left. Despite this frank acknowledge…

The ‘Dreher Affair’ Highlights the Right’s International Networks

By Annika Brockschmidt

…re a powerful force, even if they rarely make the headlines. According to a 2021 report from the European Forum for Sexual and Reproductive Rights (EPF), their pockets are deep. From 2009 until 2018, $702.2 million was spent on “anti-gender” mobilization, $81.3 million from the US alone to combat abortion rights. These networks are complicated by design, as Anne Nelson, the author of Shadow Network: Media, Money, and the Secret Hub of the Radical…
