Tim Dunn, a Texas pastor and fracking billionaire, is funding efforts to rewrite the U.S. Constitution to promote climate denial and conservative Christian values, surpassing the goals of Project 2025.
Geoff Dembicki reports for DeSmog.
In short:
- Tim Dunn is a top Trump donor advocating for a U.S. Constitution rewrite through the Convention of States initiative, aiming to limit federal power.
- Dunn’s efforts are rooted in Christian Nationalist ideals, promoting climate denial and opposing fossil fuel regulation.
- He has donated millions to conservative causes and supports influential right-wing figures, advancing his political and religious agenda nationally.
Key quote:
“They’re spending a lot of money organizing in states and they’ve got a long-term plan. They are deadly serious.”
— Peter Montgomery, research director at People for the American Way
Why this matters:
Dunn's influence could reshape U.S. governance, weaken environmental protections and impose far-right Christian views on federal policy. His wealth and network position him as a key figure in advancing these goals, with national and global implications.
