The New Apostolic Reformation has been staging Christian nationalist events on the National Mall since 2000.
Today they finally got one organized & sponsored by the White House – the culmination of 25 years of work.
My new piece explains what it means to them:

The fight fracturing Trump's coalition isn't really about Iran policy. It's about 2000 yrs of Christian ambivalence toward Jews.
Christian Zionism & Christian antisemitism aren't opposites. They're entangled theological fixations.

We got into Christian nationalism, who owns the story of America's 250th anniversary, the Rededicate 250 event, & my new book Defying Tyrants.

On Sunday the Trump admin is hosting a 9-hr Christian nationalist festival on the National Mall — w/ govt funding & govt speakers.
I study these movements & wrote a field guide: the leaders, the agenda, the history, & what makes this event genuinely unprecedented.

I was on @msnowreports.bsky.social (Chris Jansing) this afternoon talking about "Rededicate 250" — the White House-promoted, govt-funded Christian nationalist event happening on the National Mall this Sunday.

Christian nationalism isn't one movement. It's three — & they don't agree on much.
Calvinist Reconstructionists. Independent Charismatics. Anti-Vatican II Catholics – They have different theologies, different agendas, & different people in Trump's ear.
