Donald Trump has assembled a group of 302 Christian Nationalist preachers and pastors into a group he calls the Iowa Faith Leader Coalition.

Campaigning by leaders of tax-exempt churches is itself a violation of the law, of course, especially given that these leaders are announcing their endorsements of Donald Trump in their identities as church leaders. Some of them are even acting as caucus captains for Trump.

Only one journalist, writing for Raw Story, has done any substantial reporting on the Iowa Faith Leader Coalition. We can't wait for the newspapers to do the work. Given what's at stake, we need to do it ourselves.

I have begun a project to investigate who the members of the Iowa Faith Leader Coalition are, and to talk about their radical beliefs and political activities. I have created a web site for this project at IowaFaithLeaderCoalition.com in order to share the information that I've found.

I also have started a podcast about the Iowa Faith Leader Coalition to get the information out in another format. It's called simply On the Iowa Faith Leader Coalition, and it's available on Apple Podcasts and Spotify (the Spotify link is still resolving in their system but will be up by the end of the afternoon).

So far, I'm about 1/6 of the way through the list of 302 "faith leaders" supporting Trump.

I'm asking for your help, if you can give it.

If you have relevant information about any of the Iowa Trump preachers on this list, please let get in touch to share this information.

Also, you have a web site, please give a link to the project web site and to the podcast, to help get the information out to as many Iowa voters as possible before the caucuses, which are on January 15.

If you can rate and review the podcast, that would be great.

Finally, if you have any feedback or ideas about what to do to make this project more useful, I'd love to hear what you have to say.

Thanks for the help!

These "people" should move to Saudi Arabia or Iran if they would prefer theocracy.

Of course, they have no intention of doing so, because they recognize the wrongness of corrupt religious control (as long as it's some other religion, and not themselves doing it). So, here we are, trapped in the same country as the Christian Nationalists. So, what are WE going to do about it? If we prefer democracy, then we must stand up and take action, democratically, non-violently, but loudly, to the Christian Nationalist attacks against our democracy.
