Victor Marx says the first time he participated in killing a man, he was seven years old. He says he was forced into it by his stepfather, but also would like folks to believe that he’s killed many, many times since then — although he refuses to say how many people — but of course, only for the greater good. According to Marx, the U.S. military empowered him to order strikes that killed 70 ISIS fighters. He has also claimed he rescued over 45,000 women and children from slavery around the world, like something from a high-stakes action movie. He later pulled that number off his All Things Possible Ministries website when called out on it. He bragged that he’s led more than 130 missions in 30-plus nations, but declines to provide details of these daring rescues. He performs exorcisms over the phone, assuring folks that one doesn’t need to be in person to cast out demons.
When Kyle Clark of 9News asked Marx, who also claims to have a black belt in “Cajun karate,” to defend these stories during the recent primary debate between Republican gubernatorial candidates, the tough guy turned to his dog to save him. After calling the vest-adorned dog on stage and joking that she would bite Clark, he bellowed, “Is she lying, too?”
