Governor Cox: Defender of the LDS Cult’s Cash Cow As Harvard faces scrutiny for its tax-exempt billions. Utah’s governor leaps to protect a far wealthier empire—his beloved Mormon cult.
Utah’s governor leaps to protect a far wealthier empire—his beloved Mormon cult.
The Harvard Debate and the Billion-Dollar Elephant in the Room
Utah Governor Spencer Cox stands in defense of the LDS Church's tax-exempt status amid rising national scrutiny, as institutions like Harvard face IRS investigations.
There’s a national debate right now about Harvard University—whether elite, bloated institutions that hoard wealth, stir controversy, and accept massive public subsidies should continue enjoying tax-exempt status.
It’s a valid debate.
But it’s incomplete.
Because if you’re going to scrutinize Harvard, then you damn well better scrutinize the Mormon cult too.
Harvard has endowments, yes. But the LDS cult has an empire. A multi-billion-dollar investment fund. A real estate kingdom. A private university (BYU) that takes federal funding, hosts NCAA sports, and peddles ideology under the guise of education. It operates like a Fortune 500 company, but with divine branding—and not a dime of taxes.
And now, with Harvard in the IRS crosshairs, Governor Spencer Cox is sounding the alarm—not to defend fairness, but to protect his cult overlords.
Cox didn’t say “LDS” out loud when he weighed in on the Harvard IRS debate.
He didn’t have to.
His message was clear: “If you tax Harvard, what’s stopping you from taxing the Mormon cult next?”
Exactly, Governor. That’s the point.
The Cult Isn’t a Church. It’s a Corporation in Robes.
Let’s be clear: the LDS organization isn’t a humble church. It’s a financial juggernaut wrapped in pseudo-scripture.
This is a group that:
A weary taxpayer struggles under the weight of a golden Mormon temple, symbolizing the burden of public subsidies and tax exemptions carried by everyday citizens.
Built a luxury shopping mall in downtown Salt Lake
Hid over $100 billion in investment accounts
Runs for-profit ventures under nonprofit shields
Operates private universities like BYU using public funds
All while paying zero taxes.
Meanwhile, everyday Utahns fund the roads, utilities, and infrastructure these entities rely on.
This isn’t religious liberty. It’s religious privilege—and Spencer Cox is fighting to preserve it.
Even Jesus Paid His Taxes
The hypocrisy is staggering. The same cult that demands tithing from the poor hides behind tax exemptions when it comes to its own massive wealth.
But Jesus? He didn’t play that game.
“Render unto Caesar what is Caesar’s.” — Matthew 22:21
Jesus didn’t sue the Roman Empire. He didn’t file for 501(c)(3) status. He didn’t call his sermons “spiritual consulting” and funnel the proceeds into a diversified real estate portfolio.
He preached in the streets, paid his dues, and still built a movement that outlived empires.
If your theology can’t survive without a tax break, maybe it’s not theology—it’s just a cult with a spreadsheet.
Governor Cox: Puppet of the Cult
Spencer Cox is not acting like a governor.
He’s acting like the LDS cult’s PR guy in a Patagonia vest.
Every time the cult’s empire is questioned—by journalists, lawsuits, or now the IRS targeting elite institutions—Cox jumps in to defend it. Not because it’s fair. Not because it’s lawful. But because his entire political existence is tied to the untouchable wealth and influence of the Mormon establishment.
This isn’t about religious freedom. It’s about political obedience.
It’s Time to End the Grift
The LDS cult isn’t vulnerable.
It is the most powerful, tax-exempt religious empire in the western United States.
It:
Influences elections
Dictates Utah policy
Controls billions in untaxed assets
Accepts public money while giving nothing back
Enough is enough.
Call to Action
If Harvard’s tax status is fair game, then so is BYU.
So is the LDS cult.
So is every religious empire using divine branding as a shield for financial abuse.
And if Governor Spencer Cox can’t tell the difference between a servant of the people and a puppet of the prophets, it’s time Utah voters reminded him.
Audit the cult.
Tax the empire.
Hold Cox accountable.
