Who IS Juan Ciscomani? – January 25, 2024 | Archives of Women's Political Communication

Announcer: Who is Juan Ciscomani? For 14 years he's been on of the directors of a Christian nationalist organization called the Patriot Academy. They believe we should rewrite the Constitution, to establish a right-wing Christian nation, they call the separation of church and state a myth, they would abolish gay marriage, and ban abortion. The Patriot Academy is combat focused, training children as young as 11 on the most efficient way to kill. Ciscomani even brought the Patriot Academy to Arizona and said: 'Nothing in life has given him a clearer direction.' It's all online. Juan Ciscomani has spent most of his adult life pushing Patriot Academy's far-right views, so it's no surprise he's acting on them in Congress. He thinks politicians should be able to make reproductive decisions for women, and votes to restrict abortion rights. It's disturbing and dangerous. Juan Ciscomani is too extreme for Arizona.
