Co Springs Mayor Speaks at ‘Fire and Glory’ Tent Revival
MAGA pastors Mario Murillo, who gained media attention for calling Big Bird “demonic,” and Lance Wallnau, one of the most vocal proponents of the “Seven Mountain Mandate,” which posits that the Christian church should control the seven spheres of influence in society, came to Colorado Springs this month to host the “Fire and Glory” tent revival. Murillo’s “Living Proof” tour came through Colorado Springs last year, but this year it included Wallnau and Christian authors Bill Federer and Floyd Brown, who claimed that meeting Ronald Reagan in a Masonic Temple in 1976 got him into politics and went on to introduce the infamously racist “Willie Horton” campaign ad in 1988. There was also a surprise guest — Colorado Springs Mayor Yemi Mobolade.
