- Erick Erickson: The Midwestern Führerbunker Driving the Right Off the Cliff
A group of white guys have subtly inserted themselves into conservative institutions and church organizations. They all embrace racial grievances.

They are getting added to conservative institutional boards, attempting to purge churches, and are desperate to indoctrinate young conservatives into fascist ideology.
