If you're looking for an up-and-comer in the 2020 general election with a passion for social justice and a GAN-generated face who retweets @MrAndyNgo and @JackPosobiec alongside #RidinForBiden and #NoComradeUnder1K tweets, @Juan6million is the account for you.

The political stances expressed by @Juan6million are all over the map - among other things, it has now expressed support for the candidacies of Joe Biden, Donald Trump, and Kanye West. The "don't vote if you're white" and "both parties are the same" messaging is also interesting.
Although @Juan6million profusely retweets pro-Biden hashtags, a very different picture emerges when one looks at just the verified accounts it amplifies, which include a variety of #MAGA propagandists, GOP candidates, and Trump's own account.
Based on the conflicting stances espoused by @Juan6million and the sh*tposty tone of its tweets, we suspect this account is a 4chan creation. (4chan users have been making fake leftist accounts with GAN-generated pics.) #ASeriesOfUn4chanateEvents
Here's an animated mashup of @Juan6million's profile pic and several other GAN-generated images we've found on other accounts, showing the consistency of placement of prominent facial features (particularly eyes).
One more thing: @Juan6million appears to be at least partially automated, based on frequent 24/7 activity and the use of a custom app. Curiously, the app in question has a blank name (the "source" field in the data returned by the API is empty).
