A secretive group named Ziklag, backed by wealthy conservative donors including the families behind Hobby Lobby and Uline, is making a significant political push for the upcoming election. The Christian Nationalist group, which claims charity status, is reportedly spending nearly $12 million to mobilize GOP voters and purge more than a million people from voter rolls in key swing states, aiming to influence the 2024 election in favor of Donald Trump. Ziklag's activities include pushing election denial and anti-trans ballot initiatives, as well as advocating for 80% of movies to be rated G or PG. Potential new members should have a net worth of at least $25 million. Tax experts suggest that Ziklag may be violating the law due to its political activities while maintaining a charitable status.
