Journalist and video essayist Kat Abu is a rising star in news media gaining acclaim and attention for her viral, informative deep dives exposing the extremist rhetoric of MAGA and the right-wing media propaganda machine.
Her latest project, released earlier this week, is a one-hour documentary exposing the ideology of white Christian nationalism and how it has gone from the fringe to the mainstream of the modern conservative movement. Instead of being used as a dog whistle to win “faith-based voters,” this hyper-violent interpretation of Christianity is the driving engine of Project 2025 in which Jesus is rebooted as a “warrior” and Donald Trump is a flawed, but useful, vessel needed to enact their goal of supremacy and conquest by any illegal means necessary, including a violent insurrection.
After all, they’re on a mission from God, so how can they be wrong?
In this Chai Talk, Kat Abu connects the dots and explains the ideology and blueprint of the GOP’s white Christian nationalist agenda and tries to sound the alarm one one of the most urgent and dire threats to our democracy.
