"A megachurch in #NewMexico has endorsed two Republican candidates running in this year’s midterms, including a Donald Trump-backed candidate running in one of the blue state’s few competitive races. The church’s endorsements, which violate federal law banning tax-exempt nonprofits from endorsing political candidates, come as the Trump administration is challenging that ban in federal court." #religion #NM #USpol #Vote #NoKings https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/oct/29/new-mexico-church-endorses-republicans
