A Pair of Billionaire Preachers Built the Most Powerful Political Machine in Texas. Thatβs Just the Start.
Tim Dunn and Farris Wilks are poised to take their Christian nationalist agenda nationwide.
Like the Koch brothers and other conservative billionaires, Dunn and Wilks want to slash regulations and taxes.
Their endgame, however, is more radical: not just to limit the government but also to steer it toward Christian rule.

Trump says migrants drive violent crime in Illinois. But ICE canβt find many violent criminals.
Masked ICE agents and other federal forces showed up in Chicago to go after gangsters. Instead, they keep catching people who are just living their lives.
Trump claims ICEβs reign of terror in Chicago is targeting the βworst of the worst.β
But out of the 1,000 undocumented immigrants that have swept up, the agency has only cited 10 men with a criminal background.
Donβt believe his lies for a second.
