James Fishback Says Don Lemon Is 'Lucky That He's Not Getting Executed In The Public Square'

01/30/2026

Kyle Mantyla

James Fishback is a far-right Republican candidate for governor in Florida whose campaign has overtly appealed to the white nationalist movement, with Fishback making multiple appearances on programs hosted by virulently antisemitic white nationalists and voicing his admiration for white nationalist Nick Fuentes and his "groyper" movement.

On Friday, Fishback appeared on the American Family Association's "Jenna Ellis In The Morning" program, hosted by one of President Donald Trump's former attorneys, where he opened the interview by praising the Trump administration for arresting independent journalist Don Lemon for his coverage of a group of anti-ICE protesters who invaded a church in Minneapolis earlier this month.

"It is a good day for law and order in America," Fishback declared. "A man ransacked a church during Sunday service with BLM and antifa thugs. If our Founding Fathers knew that a bunch of thugs, led by Don Lemon, had ransacked a church on Sunday morning while parishioners were praising our awesome God, they would have likely called for his public execution."

"Don Lemon should be lucky that he's not getting executed in the public square for his little stunt, his violence, his aggression," Fishback continued. "It's time that Christians stand up for our rights in this country. We cannot be bullied. We cannot be pushed around, least of all by Don Lemon, and so it's a good day for law and order. I'm proud of what President Trump and the DOJ are doing and let's see that justice is served in this case all the way through."

right-wing media’s playbook for attacking Kamala Harris: A flood of misogyny and racism

Right-wing media spared no time in hurling racist and sexist attacks against the likely Democratic presidential candidate

WRITTEN BY PAYTON ARMSTRONG, CHARIS HOARD & EMMA MAE WEBER

PUBLISHED 07/23/24

Since President Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 presidential election and endorsed his vice president, Kamala Harris, right-wing media have launched sexist and racist attacks at Harris to try to diminish her qualifications. They’ve claimed that she can’t be president because she doesn’t have biological children, labeled her “the ultimate diversity, equity, and inclusion candidate,” fixated on her laugh, claimed that she promotes "the occult,” and likened her to “Jezebel.”

Oklahoma’s top education official Ryan Walters praises right-wing media figures as among “the best minds” to develop the “best history standards in the country”

07/11/24

On July 9, Oklahoma’s superintendent of public instruction Ryan Walters announced that a number of people — many of them key figures in right-wing media — would be rewriting the social studies curriculum in the state. The list includes right-wing hosts with ties to Walters like Steve Deace, Dennis Prager, and Stacy Washington, as well as Kevin Roberts, the head of The Heritage Foundation, which has organized Project 2025. (For more on the right-wing figures helping guide Oklahoma's curriculum, see here.)

Walters appeared on the July 11 episode of Jenna Ellis in the Morningand discussed the plans for a new curriculum, using rhetoric that appears to mirror Christian nationalism and expressing excitement with the group of right-wing figures that will help develop the curriculum.

JENNA ELLIS (HOST): I’m speaking with Oklahoma state superintendent Ryan Walters, who is overhauling the curriculum for schools to simply reflect the truth of our national heritage, to explain civics.

...

And yet, the left, who clearly they haven't read the Bible because they think that this is just, you know, a bunch of fairy stories that have nothing to do with reality. They don’t understand that the Bible is actually a history text. It’s actually so much more than that that gives a chronology of world history up until, of course, the New Testament, but then we also have Revelation, the end of all things.

I mean, they just think of this as a purely religious text that is trying to push the Christian religion onto students rather than, as you rightly point out Ryan Walters, the Bible actually is so much more than that and should be studied if kids actually want to understand our American heritage.

…

And so talk about this curriculum more that you have proposed, and I know that people like my good friend Steve Deace are already working on this. What was the design for, you know, bringing in some of these really great — I think just civics philosophers — like Dennis Prager, Kevin Roberts, Steve Deace?

RYAN WALTERS (OKLAHOMA STATE SUPERINTENDENT): Yes. What we’ve seen in education is education has been controlled by the radical left, by these left-wing institutions. You see them all the way down. You see it at the federal level with the Department of Education, but you see it all the way down to the local level. You see it embedded in state departments of education.

Jenna, when I came into the office, I fired 130 of the staff there. And we had embedded left-wing bureaucrats. And so we’ve come in and said, listen, you know, the left has completely tried to control everything, all the way down to curriculum.

So what I want is I want folks that understand American history, understand how to articulate that in a way that kids are going to be able to understand it. And we’re going to come in here, and we’re going to have the best history standards in the country. We’re going to find the best minds from around the country to come in here and help us develop out that story of America. We want our kids to be able to truly understand it. We don’t want any of our history censored from our kids.

We want them to truly understand that because, you know, you look at it too — And when the left has taken away any type of moral, religious reference in our history, you know, you look at folks like Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, who were very clearly — you know, you think about some of John Adams quotes about, you know, this constitution was made for a moral or religious people. And part of — so much of what they articulated was an equation that, yes, our rights come from God, we maximize those individual liberties. And there’s also the citizenry has to be moral or religious so that they can self govern. That’s how maximizing individual rights work.

Well, generally, we don’t tell half of that story. We’re lying to our kids. Our kids aren’t getting that picture. And Winston Churchill said the further back you look is the further ahead you can see. And how in the world are we going to move this country forward and continue to be the greatest country in the history of the world if our kids don’t even understand the history of where we came from? And that’s where we are so excited with this group that we have to help us develop these standards.

not sure if same, yup is

Fred Jackson - News Director

From time to time, you may have seen labels that say "Product of Canada." It happens to suit me also. I was born and raised on a farm on the east coast... and did the things that most Canadian boys do while growing up.... including, of course, playing hockey and falling through the ice while playing hockey.

After graduating from high school, I followed a lot of different paths. Four years at university gave me a degree in Biology and Chemistry. Then a stint in the Canadian Armed Forces taught me how to fly airplanes. After that, came my journalism career.

In between all of this, the Lord led me to Baptist Bible college in Springfield, Missouri, for a year of study. He also had other plans. I met my wife, Suzy, there. We've been married since 1980 and have two lovely daughters.

After nearly 20 years in broadcasting in Canada, God once again stirred my heart about taking what I had learned in secular news operations and applying it to Christian broadcasting. A meeting with Dr. Don Wildmon at American Family Radio in October 1996 led me to my present position ... News Director at AFR. God has been so good to me in so many ways over the years. I praise him for giving me the privilege to serve him.

Proverbs 3:5 and 6 have always been among my favorite Bible verses -- and now I am old enough to say with assurance that God's way is always the best way!

UN climate summit concluded with pro-planet, anti-human theme

American Family News

Marc Morano, of Climate Depot, attended last week's conference and was not in awe. He came away convinced humans are closer than ever to losing ...

vocal skeptic of climate change, in particular the claim human beings are dooming mankind with fossil fuels, says that anti-human movement took a huge step forward when a conference concluded in Dubai.

When the COP28 UN Climate Summit concluded last week, nearly 200 countries had signed a document that pledges to move away from “planet-warming fossil fuels,” according to a biased Associated Press story written by its climate change reporters.

insertUK study says human breathing harms planet, too

Steve Jordahl, AFN.net

If you haven’t gotten the message of the climate alarmists yet, a new study that suggests you stop breathing to save the planet offers another clue.

According to the UK Centre for Ecology and Hydrology, the exhaled human breath contributes to global warming because it contains gases methane and nitrous oxide. The study, which took breathing samples from 104 adults, concluded that Brits and their breathing make up one-tenth of one percent of the carbon warming their island nation.

That study comes after climate scientists have warned everything from driving gas-powered automobiles to eating meat are selfish acts because they contribute to a warming planet.

Cal Beisner is a climate change skeptic at the Cornwall Alliance. He says people must wake up and realize that studies that warn about saving the planet have a goal in mind to make that happen.

“They're meant to cut down human population,” he warns. end insert

“Humanity has finally done what is long, long, long overdue,” Wopke Hoesktra, a European Union commissioner, said when the climate summit wrapped up.

“I am in awe of the spirit of cooperation that has brought everybody together,” John Kerry, representing the United States, said.

Morano, Marc (Climate Depot)Morano

Marc Morano, of Climate Depot, attended last week’s conference and was not in awe. He came away convinced humans are closer than ever to losing basic personal freedoms.

“Two hundred medical journals, including the prestigious British Medical Journal, urged the United Nations (UN) and the World Health Organization (WHO) to declare climate change a public health emergency," Morano tells AFN.

That development is more significant than dignitaries making speeches and congratulating each other, Morano says, because the issue of climate change has moved to a new phase in which humans must be forced to change their lifestyles.

"They want to restrict travel on hot days, put limits on flights, restrict energy use, restrict meat," said Morano, who spent a week at the conference.

None of those claims are denied or disputed by the other side, which are easy to find online, but Morano says the save-the-planet movement is accelerating from a how-you-can-help list of ideas, like changing the thermostat, to government-mandated rules that would control your home's thermostat.

"The idea is they can do this similar to the way they did it through COVID,” he warns, “by bypassing democracy through emergency decree, through executive orders, through unelected bureaucrats.”

A similar theme of 'impatience'

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the public witnessed a similar situation when urged to get the COVID shot, work from home, avoid holiday gatherings, and wear a mask. People were urged to do so to show we cared about our co-workers, our child’s school teachers, and elderly neighbors.

Many have also not forgotten President Biden famously ordering private employers to require their workers to get the experimental shot or be fined by OSHA. “Many of us are frustrated with the nearly 80 million Americans who are still not vaccinated, even though the vaccine is safe, effective, and free,” Biden said in the 2021 speech at the White House.

Last week’s climate conference had a similar tone of urgency and impatience, according to the Associated Press article. It described frustration by 100 nations that the signed document describes “transitioning away” from fossil fuels instead of a more urgent pledge to seek a “phase-out” of fossil fuels instead.

The idea that developed countries can give up fossil fuels and replace them with reliable solar power and wind energy, Morano says, is unrealistic and lacks common sense.

“It's not even something that you can take with a straight face,” he insists, “but the media reports it as though this is historic, and all these countries are now going home with these net-zero climate goals.”

If those countries do succeed with their climate goals, he predicts, their citizens will be rationing electricity to keep the lights on, rationing the food they eat, and rationing transportation to go to work.

If the idea of rationing your freedom sounds like a conspiracy theory, articles by Earth.com, by Science Daily, by New Republic, and by Stanford University are urging people to accept it - like masks and a vaccine.

“Because that's the anti-human agenda of the United Nations,” he says.
