I have never heard of Doug Wilson before, but apparently he is a really scary dude pushing something called "Dominion Theology", following in the footsteps of the late R.J. Rushdoony. I found his blog at Blog & Mablog (https://dougwils.com/), which looks pretty boring to me but I just glanced at it. On the Wikipedia page for Dominion Theology, Doug Wilson isn't even mentioned. I think the folks at Alternet are just having fun inventing conspiracy theories.

Here is another article about Doug Wilson:

It doesn’t hurt that [Doug] Wilson’s influence extends far beyond Moscow [Idaho]. He has been featured on conservative talk shows, including Tucker Carlson’s. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth attends a church in Wilson’s denomination and has praised Wilson’s writings. In July, Wilson will open a new congregation in Washington, D.C., aimed at ”strategic opportunities with numerous evangelicals who will be present both in and around the Trump administration.”

Here is an article about Tucker Carlson interviewing Douglas Wilson in April 2024:
https://churchleaders.com/news/476229-douglas-wilson-tucker-carlson-christian-nationalism.html
Teasing the interview on social media, Carlson posted, “Pastor Doug Wilson is the Christian nationalist they warned you about.” Wilson is controversial due to his views on race, his church’s desire to make Moscow a “Christian town,” his expression of complementarianism, and how Christ Church has handled previous sexual abuse allegations. The 70-year-old pastor’s books include “Mere Christendom,” “Reforming Marriage,” and “Southern Slavery: As It Was.”
