Amicus With Dahlia Lithwick | Law, justice, and the courts

CHAPTER

Dominionism, Christian Nationalism, and Supreme Court Ethics

The chapter delves into the rise of Seven Mountains Dominionism within movements like the New Apostolic Reformation, its influence on figures like Mike Flynn and Roger Stone, and the use of symbols like the 'appeal to heaven' flag to signify a Christian theocratic America. It explores the impact of Christian nationalism on beliefs about violence, the authoritarian nature of the movement, its ties to the Supreme Court, and the potential implications for ethics within the Court. The discussion also covers the role of former President Trump in intensifying behaviors among his supporters and exploiting pre-existing movements through coded language and symbolism.
