Well, I guess these churches don't want their tax exemption. That's cool, I guess.

I think they'll end up keeping them but damn man, of all entities not to f[inks] with, the IRS is always numero uno.
They'll keep them and get to play the victim card. The IRS doesn't have the balls to go after the churches.

I've never understood the connection between political activity and tax exempt status. An individual or a corporation doesn't pay a different tax rate depending on whether they endorse a candidate.  If they are a non-profit, they shouldn't pay taxes. If they are for-profit, they should.

Question for the Americans: Do groups like the NRA or NARAL have to pay income tax because they endorse candidates?
It's more about property tax than income tax.
