We'll see if this actually happens though come tax season. A church in Central PA hosted a movie about Doug Mastriano since it got dropped by another movie theater for too much negative press. It was massive too like thousands of people from all over the state.

That would certainly be an example but they'll just argue religious freedom since the overlap of politics and religion is deep and hard to fight IMO

If it’s a separate group renting the church, I think it’s safe unfortunately, but if the pastor were to say anything explicitly endorsing mastriano, they would potentially have issues if someone recorded and reported. I don’t find myself in churches, but I could see it happening if I knew something like this was going on. In fact, it would make for a really interesting documentary. Most people aren’t aware you can (and should) report churches for doing this.

My exact point, hosting him is a clear endorsement, churches are places of worship and not movie theaters, the movie was not a reenactment of religious texts either (to my knowledge).
