  • Shane Vaughn declares that "you cannot discuss Israel until you can debate me live on the subject."
  • Lance Wallnau asserts that Americans "ought to be able to endure the momentary inconvenience at the [gas] pump" caused by the Trump administration's war with Iran.
  • David Barton insists that nobody can call the Trump administration "fascist" because "fascist means the government cooperating with private entities to do government business." This is not what fascist means.
  • Mario Murillo claims that you can now "definitively say that [the 2020 election] was stolen."

On the Watchlist

Lance Wallnau

A former oil executive turned right-wing evangelist, Wallnau is a self-proclaimed Christian nationalist and a leading proponent of Seven Mountains Dominionism, which seeks to place right-wing Christians atop the seven primary “mountains” that shape society: government, education, media, arts and entertainment, family, religion, and business.

Che Ahn

California-based pastor Ché Ahn is a leader in the dominionist New Apostolic Reformation movement and a MAGA political activist. On the eve of the Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection, Ahn told a pro-Trump rally that "we’re gonna rule and reign through President Trump and under the lordship of Jesus Christ.” Ahn is running for Governor of California in 2025. 
David Barton

David Barton

Despite having obtained only a Bachelor of Arts degree from Oral Roberts University in the 1970s, David Barton now routinely bills himself as “America’s premier historian” and has established a reputation as the Religious Right’s go-to “expert” for making the case that the Founding Fathers intended to establish America to be a Christian nation that operates according to the laws of God as set out in the Bible.
