Are you looking for proof about what? About the belief that the US is a Christian nation or about the belief that Christians are persecuted in the US?
Because evangelical groups have been very vocal about each of those claims for a very long time.

1. America as a "Christian nation": partly true, due to settlers being mostly Puritans seeking shelter from religious persecution. Ex: Harvard created by Puritans
2. Evangelical power grab: Yes, they might have infiltrated the government. Watch a Netflix documentary called “The Family” based on an insider’s investigation.
3. Religious persecution: from varied, unconventional sources (not from mainstream liberal media)- Christianity is the most persecuted religion internationally (in terms of gravity of consequences): beheadings, incarceration, beatings, etc. The US still has it easy.
Although Evangelicals sometimes wanders off from mainline Christianity, their points are not exactly without merit.
