Chuck Darwin<p>Stephen Wolfe grew up in Napa, California, <br>and his father was an admirer of the right-wing pundit and erstwhile GOP presidential candidate Pat Buchanan. </p><p>After attending West Point and serving in the Army, Wolfe earned advanced degrees before leaving academia to <br>“do the Wendell Berry thing” <br>in North Carolina with his wife and four kids.</p><p>Over the summer, Wolfe, 41, agreed to speak with me on the condition that I refer to him as “Dr. Wolfe” <br>and call him an “expert on Christian nationalism.” </p><p>The Dr. Wolfe I spoke with was a more muted version of the firebrand I’d watched online. </p><p>He said his ideal version of America would be led by a Caesar figure. </p><p>Gay marriage would be strictly prohibited. </p><p>Women would not be allowed to vote<br>—instead, men would vote for their households.</p><p>When I brought up the bit from his book about heretics being killed, he grew annoyed.</p><p> “I do think it’s permissible, in principle, for a state to suppress theological heresy, <br>but that doesn’t mean that it’s prudent or proper, <br>suitable in every circumstance or every tradition or way of life.” </p><p>The Founding Fathers, he added, had encouraged religious liberty, <br>so killing heretics would not be appropriate in the United States that we inhabit.</p><p>We turned to remarks he had made at a recent conference convened by Brian Sauvé:<br> “I think we need to reflect on this idea of Judeo-Christianity, <br>or Judeo-Christian worldview, <br>or Judeo-Christian whatever, <br>and really eradicate that from our thinking. </p><p>Because if we say that America is a <br>Judeo-Christian country, <br>then it can’t be a Christian country, okay?” </p><p>What role, I asked him, would Jews play? </p><p>After a deep sigh, he told me that they would be allowed to “exercise their religion freely.”</p><p>We spoke a week before Vance’s RNC speech, <br>and Wolfe’s remarks helped me understand what the TheoBros heard in Vance’s phrase about <br>"America as a people". </p><p>The founders, Wolfe noted, intended for their country to be “Anglo-Protestant with an American inflection.” </p><p>America, he continued, is “a place of settlement and rootedness, <br>but it’s an open ethnicity in which people can become one of us.” </p><p>Which is to say that, like some others, Wolfe is not necessarily opposed to the idea of nonwhite people in America<br>—as long as they agree to assimilate to the Anglo-Protestant dominant culture.</p><p>In this telling, America is not a pluralistic society at all, <br>but rather one in which there exists an uneasy truce between Christians and those they reluctantly tolerate. </p><p>Toward the end of our conversation, I asked Wolfe what motivated him. </p><p>“I want Christians to be more assertive and to recognize the Christian heritage of the American way of life, <br>and to seek to restore that,” he said. </p><p>“This is a Christian country, and we’ve got to work to restore it to what it once was"</p><p>In his keynote address at Sauvé’s conference, titled “Why Multicultural Pluralism Fails and What to Build Instead,” <br>Wolfe called the concept of America as a melting pot <br>“an early 20th-century idea cooked up by a Jew in New York who despised the confident Anglo-Protestant establishment.” </p><p>WASPs were the “distinct ethnicity” of America, he insisted, </p><p>and America should only welcome those who aspired to assimilate. </p><p>As he put it, “This is our homeland, and we welcome you on the condition of conformity.” </p><p>Or, in the words of JD Vance, America “is a group of people.”</p><p><a href="https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2024/09/theobros-jd-vance-christian-nationalism/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"

Chuck Darwin<p>William Wolfe served in the Trump administration <br>both as the deputy assistant secretary of defense <br>and as director of House affairs at the Department of State. </p><p>He is also an alumnus of <a href="https://c.im/tags/Heritage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Heritage</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Action" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Action</span></a>, <br>a sister organization of the Heritage Foundation, <br>the arch-conservative think tank behind Project 2025, <br>whose chief architect, Russell Vought, posted on X that he was “proud to work with @William_E_Wolfe on scoping out a sound Christian Nationalism.” </p><p>A few months later, the Bucks County Beacon uncovered a lengthy online manifesto on the goals of Christian nationalists. </p><p>The document, which listed Wolfe and Joel Webbon as contributing editors <br>and Oklahoma Sen. Dusty Deevers as a co-author, <br>called for “civil magistrates” to usher in “the establishment of the Ten Commandments as the foundational law of the nation.”</p><p>The manifesto doesn’t specify exactly how Christian nationalists should achieve these goals. </p><p>As Tabachnick, the extremism researcher, interprets it, the TheoBros are imagining a utopia where “they are going to be free to be entrepreneurs in all different senses, <br>including the tech world that they’re mixing with so freely.” </p><p>The key, she said, is that authoritarianism “is required to have the utopian vision.”</p><p>Last year, the extremism watchdog group Right Wing Watch posted a video of Wolfe quoting a scripture passage. <br>There are times when “even the God of peace proclaims by his providence, ‘to arms!’” he says. </p><p>“If we have ever lived in a point of time in American history since then that we could argue that now is a time ‘to arms’ again, I think we are getting close.”</p><p>William Wolfe’s Christian nationalism manifesto made the rounds on social media, <br>but in mainstream conservative outlets, it was Stephen Wolfe who brought TheoBro ideas to the wider world. </p><p>In his book, which was praised by editors at the Federalist and the American Conservative, <br>Wolfe paints America as a “gynocracy” whose government and culture have been feminized by unhappy women leaders. <br>(Sound familiar?) </p><p>He has stated on X that women should not have the right to vote, and that “interethnic” marriage can be “sinful.”</p><p> <a

Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.</p><p>Like many TheoBros, <br>Isker sees much to like in Vance. </p><p>In early July, before Trump announced his running mate, Isker referred to him as <br>“Senator JD Vance (R-Heritage America).” </p><p>In late July, he posted a video of Vance and told his 29,000 followers, <br>“You need to double down on childless cat lady discourse. <br>Kamala sees happy, large families and hates them. <br>She wants them destroyed. <br>She wants you to never be able to have this. <br>She is a nasty, bitter harridan who hates all that is true, good, and beautiful.”</p><p>One problem is that there simply are not enough TheoBros to populate Christian communities like the one Isker plans to move to. </p><p>Enter <a

Convention that it, <br>the largest of all Protestant denominations in the United States, <br>has fallen prey to the corrupting forces of liberalism. </p><p>Baptists are only the beginning. </p><p>Wolfe wants to win over the entire evangelical mainstream, <br>which he and other TheoBros refer to as “<a href="https://c.im/tags/Big" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener

he posted on X, <br>“Once you realize that Big Eva thinks it’s a bigger sin to desire to preserve the customs, heritage, values, and cultural homogeneity of your own nation <br>than to kill the unborn in the womb, you can better understand their moral framework.”</p><p> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Josh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Josh</span></a>

Chuck Darwin<p>Who is excluded, in some sense, reveals more about SACR than who is allowed in.</p><p>The group bans anyone who is not Christian: <br>Jews, Muslims, Hindus, and others. </p><p>But it

exclusivity came from the “long and robust tradition of the intersection between <a href="https://c.im/tags/Trinitarian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"

application of male dominion in civic affairs. </p><p>Yenor, the Boise State professor, told TPM in a text that the group’s exclusivity was a way “to bring men together for real community and fraternity,” allowing members to “build each other up and encourage responsibility” in public and private life. </p><p> <a href="https://c.im/tags/cold" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener

Chuck Darwin<p>Under Williams’ leadership, Claremont has become well-known for a vision of America in which the country as we know it is all but lost, set to be replaced by a “regime” that its leaders hope to craft to come after the current, “cold civil war” concludes. </p><p>While introducing another podcast discussion between Haywood and Anton, Williams called Haywood a “friend of recent years” who was willing to discuss the country’s “decaying republic.”</p><p>“The phrase <a href="https://c.im/tags/cold" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cold</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/civil" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>civil</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/war" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>war</span></a> is chosen deliberately,” Williams told TPM. “I hope it remains cold indefinitely.”</p><p>It’s not only about the republic. Internal SACR messages show that the group envisions itself as stewards of a hard brand of Christianity. </p><p>Yenor, in one message that he planned to use for recruitment, summed it up:<br> “Our belief is that the country’s track is unsustainable, and the only way to secure a future for Christian families is to keep and take back space now closed to Christians.”</p><p> <a

Chuck Darwin<p>On the blog where he explains these ideas, Haywood refers to himself as “<a href="https://c.im/tags/maximum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>maximum</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/leader" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>leader</span></a>.” </p><p>In October 2022, Haywood appeared on a podcast with with former Trump official and “Flight 93” essay <a href="https://c.im/tags/Michael" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Michael</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Anton" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Anton</span></a> and others for a discussion about <a href="https://c.im/tags/caesarism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>caesarism</span></a> <br>— the idea that a strongman is needed to solve America’s problems. </p><p>After referring to an unspecified “secret event” that brought the group together, Haywood said that he “wholeheartedly” endorsed “<a href="https://c.im/tags/national" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>national</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/divorce" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>divorce</span></a>” as a solution to the country’s problems. </p><p>Since selling his shampoo manufacturing firm in September 2020, Haywood has mobilized. His nonprofit, the<br> "Howdy Doody Good Times Foundation", began to contribute to the Claremont Institute.</p><p>Howdy Doody has contributed money to SACR as well. Over the following year, a chapter in Dallas, Texas, and three in Idaho were founded. </p><p>Haywood has said that additional chapters exist; Williams put the total number at beneath one dozen. </p><p>Among the emails obtained by TPM are ones that show the organization’s reach. </p><p>In one January 2023 exchange, Haywood cc’ed a group of people while asking for a board meeting to discuss SACR finances. <br>The men on the exchange do not appear to be down on their luck. </p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/Fischer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fischer</span></a>, a venture capitalist who leads the group’s Dallas chapter, graduated from Harvard Law.

Williams confirmed his involvement in the group on Friday on Twitter, writing, “may 1,000 chapters bloom and flourish.” </p><p>Claremont came into national consciousness in 2021 because it was where

Chuck Darwin<p>What sets SACR apart is that its members come from and are recruited from the upper crust of American society. </p><p>They are wealthy — independent wealth is a requirement for membership, per documents TPM obtained. And they are credentialed. </p><p>SACR offers a redoubt for powerful people who take the culture war extremely seriously and believe in their bones that hemorrhaging church membership, the Obergefell decision on same-sex marriage, and the ebbing status of Christian men in American society are an existential threat to their vision for America, and who have the means to build a society on a different path. </p><p>Organized as a 501(c)10, Williams described SACR as analogous in structure to the Masons or Moose lodges<br> — a national superstructure with chapters around the country, some public and some not. </p><p>Its members are, as a rule, secret. But those members who have incorporated chapters, as TPM discovered, end up identified in public records. </p><p>In an interview, Williams told TPM that SACR emerged from conversations between himself, self-described “industrialist” <a href="https://c.im/tags/Charles" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Charles</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Haywood" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Haywood</span></a>, and others around Claremont in 2020. </p><p>Skyler Kressin, an Idaho accountant, and Fischer, also participated. </p><p>The idea, Williams said, came about amid conversations about “civic projects and constitutionalism and the state of America.” </p><p>“Part of the scholarly project of the Claremont Institute has been to lament the rise, really since the late 19th century, of a certain different way of thinking about politics and how to do government outside, we would argue, the American constitutional tradition,” he said.</p><p>Haywood, a University of Chicago-educated attorney, incorporated SACR and sits on its board. He did not respond to requests for comment from TPM.</p><p>Haywood has laid out an elaborate cosmology of America’s place in time, and his own place in America, through hundreds of blog posts he’s written on his website,<br>The Worthy House. </p><p>To Haywood, American government is a house of cards waiting to be blown over <br>— run by a cabal that he describes as the “brawndo tyranny,” referring to the energy drink from the 2006 cult classic movie Idiocracy. </p><p>Haywood says he can see what will likely come next: <br>a new <a href="https://c.im/tags/feudalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>feudalism</span></a>, <br>an archipelago of local “<a href="https://c.im/tags/armed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener
