November 7, 2026
PJ Media's Townhall video page previews an episode of "This Week on Capitol Hill," a Salem Radio Network program hosted by Tony Perkins, in which House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) discusses the Nov. 3 midterms.
Key points
- Johnson on France: Per the episode description, Johnson cites TV footage of rioting in France as a possible preview of America if Democrats win Congress, calling them "radical Democrats."
- Johnson on voting: He also says Christians who skip voting because they dislike their choices are "derelict in their duty."
- Israel: Newsmax's James Rosen says it is not certain Benjamin Netanyahu will remain Israel's longest-serving prime minister, and that his defeat would make Middle East politics more volatile.
- Economy and voting: Economist David Bahnsen voices concern about Democratic Socialist candidates but says America is far from abandoning capitalism.
Quick take
The page carries only a description of the episode, so the remarks above are the speakers' own claims and the program's wording, not independent findings.
