The two women are known for making anti-Muslim statements at political events in the Phoenix area.

In the video, Dauenhauer refers to Muslims as Satan-worshippers and claimed the mosque had pamphlets on Islamic training camps in America and tips on getting more government assistance.

In one clip, Dauenhauer holds a child in one hand as she takes away pamphlets with the other hand.

Dauenhauer pleaded guilty to aggravated criminal damage last month.
