Curious as to if there are any churches that have given up their tax exempt status in order to allow them to speak out on any political issue that they want to. If so, where and who are they?

no, they're mythological--I have heard of several who were forced by the government to become more PC in order to keep the tax exempt status

The church I go to isn't exempt. It's Trinity Baptist Church in Baumholder, Germany.
It is an American-run church, and most of the members are military, or military family members.

Canaan Christian Fellowship in Kansas. They have never been tax exempt.

If one did, I'm sure you'll see the pastor and congregation attending the church next door.
