Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, R-La., has long-held ties to Christian activists and leaders — some of whom are linked to the Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection and the growing Christian nationalism movement. We explore what those views are, and why they matter in today's political landscape. This episode: political correspondents Sarah McCammon & Susan Davis, and domestic extremism correspondent Odette Yousef.*The podcast is edited by Casey Morell. It is produced by Jeongyoon Han.
