  • Lance Wallnau cannot believe that voters are turning against President Donald Trump and the Republicans: "It shows you that the American population, as a whole, isn't educated."
  • Heidi St. John claims that "our world's on fire," as exemplified by the fact that "the insanity of the Democrat Party [is now] to embrace terrorism, literally." 
  • Mark Meckler warns that James Talarico is "very dangerous": "I really do believe Satan is speaking through him."
  • Michele Bachmann says that the Green New Deal is "economic jihad."
  • Finally, Joel Webbon wants to see Republicans "get crushed in the midterms in 2026" and "lose in 2028" because he believes it will create an environment "for us to run our guys in 2030, the next midterm, and 2032, the next presidential [election]."

Joel Webbon

Joel Webbon is a hard-core Christian nationalist who believes women should not have the right to vote and Jews should not be able to hold public office. Along with Oklahoma state Sen. Dusty Deevers, former Trump administration official William Wolfe, and others, Webbon contributed to “The Statement on Christian Nationalism and the Gospel," which declared that the United States must formally “acknowledge the Lordship of Christ” in all its laws, “abolish abortion,” outlaw marriage equality, and “recapture our national sovereignty from godless, global entities who present a grave threat to civilization.”
