Related: About this forumHave you watched "Deep In The Pockets" yet?
Chris Tackett, who is currently presenting programs about Christian Dominionism
is in this film. I have not actually watched it yet, but I have heard Chris speak about it more than once. It. Is. Scary.
I have learned a lot about who is putting up the money and how it is impacting local races, such as school boards, city councils, county commissioner courts .
If you are involved in any type of Democratic group in North Texas, you need to book Chris as a speaker.

Not a Lobby, not a huge multi national company but ONE GUY. Or worse yet two of 'em!

Billionaire conservative donors are literally buying politicians, starting from local school board race candidates up to governor. It's happened in Florida, too.
