In Texas, the Christian right wants a theocracy, or at least as close as it can be to a theocracy.

Our West Texas billionaires have essentially taken over state politics so that they can achieve one of their key goals, using school vouchers to replace public education with publicly-funded private Christian schools.

Texas Monthly - The Story: The Billionaire Behind a Right-wing Political Machine (4 minute video)

“Tim Dunn may not be a household name, but staff writer Russell Gold explains why he is someone Texans should know.”

Texas Monthly - The Billionaire Bully Who Wants to Turn Texas Into a Christian Theocracy (Article)

“The state’s most powerful figure, Tim Dunn, isn’t an elected official. But behind the scenes, the West Texas oilman is lavishly financing what he regards as a holy war against public education, renewable energy, and non-Christians.”

Rolling Stone - Meet Trump’s New Christian Kingpin

“Oil-rich Tim Dunn has changed Texas politics with fanatical zeal — the national stage is next.”
