Looks like Biden has brought back Obama's weaponized IRS to go after the Right again, using this if you "educate voters on what the bible says about issues, your educational activities are not neutral” as a precedence no religious institution is safe, basically now you either worship as the IRS dictates or you pay the price.By teaching members about issues such as “the sanctity of life, the definition of marriage, biblical justice, laws vs. lawlessness, freedom of speech, religious liberty, government and business ethics, human trafficking, fiscal responsibility in government budgeting, defense, borders and immigration, U.S. and Israel relations,” Martin said the group had “engaged in prohibited campaign intervention.”
“While you educate voters on what the bible says about issues, your educational activities are not neutral,” he wrote. “The topics typically are affiliated with distinct candidates and specific political party platforms.”

The IRS noted that the group’s leadership is filled with ‘GOP activists’ and decided the organization does not qualify for tax-exempt status.
