Right Wing Round-Up: Unraveling 2024

  • Ask An Atheist: Creeds and Candidates: Unraveling 2024.
  • Today, we’re having a special Action Fund edition of FFRF’s “Ask an Atheist.” FFRF Action Fund Director of Governmental Affairs Mark Dann and FFRF Action Fund Co-President Annie Laurie Gaylor will talk with Peter Montgomery, a senior fellow and research director at the People for the American Way, who helps to run Right Wing Watch. They will discuss with him the role Christian nationalism will play in the 2024 election, and the Heritage’s Foundation’s Project 2025, which sets forth a blueprint for restructuring the U.S. government along extremist lines and clears the way to vastly increase presidential control of American life.

Every day, Right Wing Watch exposes extremism to help the public, activists, and journalists understand the strategies and tactics of anti-democratic forces—and respond to an increasingly aggressive and authoritarian far-right movement. The threat is growing, but our resources are not. Any size contribution will help us continue our work and become more effective at disrupting the ideologies, people, and organizations that threaten our freedom and democracy. Please make an investment in Right Wing Watch’s defense of the values we share.
