Sources identify the author of The Assault on Freedom as Pastor Matt Hagee of Hagee Ministries, and the claim's 'Hagey' spelling is a misspelling of the same person, not a different referent. Both supporting sources come from the ministry itself, so confidence is capped.

This claim is about the present, so it is judged as of the day it was checked.

What was said

… but from within: false peace, open borders, socialism, the war on the family and the sanctity of life, the persecution of the church, and the rise of Islam and anti-Semitism. And I think these are the six greatest threats facing this republic right now. Pastor Matt Hagey from Hagey Ministries lays them all out clearly, biblically, without apology, in his brand new book, The Assault on Freedom.

What we found

Supports. The JHM.org product page lists The Assault on Freedom (subtitled America's Seven Greatest Threats) with author Matt Hagee.[1]

Supports. A Hagee Ministries video transcript dated 2026-10-28 describes Pastor Matt Hagee as having written The Assault on Freedom, America's Seven Greatest Threats.[2]

Context. The claim and the original post spell the name 'Hagey' (and 'Haggy' once), while the sources spell it 'Hagee'; the ministry is 'Hagee Ministries' in the sources. The post's own wording is consistent with the same author, so the spelling is treated as a typo rather than a different person.[1][2]

Context. Sources in the search results do not include an independent review or fact-checker treatment of the book's authorship; the supporting evidence is the publisher's and ministry's own material.[1][2]
