New docs shed light on ‘inner workings’ of ‘shadowy’ far-right Christian nationalist group – By Alex Henderson (Alternet) / March 19, 2024
In an article published on March 11, The Guardian’s Jason Wilson detailed the links between the Claremont Institute — a right-wing think tank — and a “shadowy” Christian nationalist group called the Society for American Civil Renewal (SACR).
Claremont, founded in 1979, was once a traditional conservative outfit that championed the ideas of Sen. Barry Goldwater (R-Arizona) and President Ronald Reagan. But in recent years, Claremont has taken a decidedly MAGA turn that critics have described as extreme and authoritarian. And Wilson’s March 11 article illustrated Claremont’s willingness to embrace the far-right fringe.
Wilson follows up his March 11 report with another Guardian article — this time, describing newly revealed documents that “shed light on” the “secretive” SACR’s “origins and inner workings.”
