To simplify: churches are forbidden to promote specific political parties or candidates, in order to maintain tax-exempt status. no religious institution is allowed to make explicit political statements, including "this party is bad," "this party is good," "you should vote for x," "you should not vote for x," or "let's raise money for x political party or campaign." all of those things are super illegal! if they're going to act as a political entity, they need to pay taxes like any other political entity! report their asses!!!
Done!
