Depending on how a court case shakes out, anyone hoping to run as a Republican in one Missouri county may first need to submit to vetting by members of a far-right church known for its ties to the white identity movement and domestic terrorism.

Missouri had an embarrassing trip to the U.S. Supreme Court last month, and things have gone downhill from there. Murthy v. Missouri (formerly Missouri v. Biden), was filed in 2022 by our then-Attorney General Eric Schmitt and his Louisiana counterpart.
