Trump's Christian nationalists: Ziklag exposed

Jesus is Republican, right? And a paid member of the NRA?

Ziklag exposed: Secretive Christian nationalist network tries to purge voters in battleground states
(Democracy Now!) July 30, 2024: Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump made headlines this week after suggesting the 2024 election could be the last U.S. election if he wins in November.
This is our country. We will not be replaced!
DN! looks at a secret organization of wealthy Christians called "Ziklag" that is backing Trump's efforts by working to purge more than a million voters from the rolls in battleground states and mobilize Republican voters to back Trump.

The news outlets ProPublica and Documented obtained thousands of Ziklag's internal files and found the group has divided its 2024 activities into three different operations:
  1. Steeplechase, which uses churches to get out the vote;
  2. Watchtower, which aims to rally voters around opposition to transgender rights; and
  3. Checkmate, which is focused on funding so-called election integrity groups,
explains ProPublica investigative reporter Andy Kroll. MoreZiklag exposed
