NEW: Rittenhouse's militia contingent in Kenosha included a man named Ryan Balch.

Balch shared Nazi, white nationalist, boogaloo and Pro-Trump propaganda online: splcenter.org/hatewatch/2020…
The growing far-right radicalization engine we have witnessed under Trump is now hitting our streets, armed. Balch's social diet:

-Richard Spencer
-Lauren Southern
-"Weird Mike" Cernovich
-Prison Planet
-Doomsday Prepping
-Pizzagate
-Boogaloo

Republicans and FOX News have circled the wagons to justify and normalize Rittenhouse’s crew.

As my pseudonymous friend notes, some of these guys are immersed in Hitlerism. Years of a negligent GOP and social media exploitation have brought us the summer of 2020:
Regarding just the Pizzagate memes. The media treated this as just crazy talk and then it led to an attempted attack and now QAnon.

@twitter has openly enabled this madness. They backed Cernovich and also the manipulative far-right extremist Posobiec: splcenter.org/hatewatch/2020…
Incidentally, Trump, guided by his extremist adviser Stephen Miller, is going to Kenosha on Tuesday.

What a grotesque spectacle that’s shaping up to be: usatoday.com/story/news/pol…
For an ex. of @Twitter's role in Kenosha/Portland, here are four Posobiec posts hyping white vigilantism in response to BLM protests from June:

NEW: Trump Jr. appeared at one of Bannon's "We Build the Wall" events with neo-Nazi collaborator Jack Posobiec.

Posobiec described Trump Jr. as being "redpilled AF" in private messages, referring to him sharing a link from a Holocaust denier's website:

One of the least sophisticated comments I see about far-right extremists is “but he’s just a grifter.”

The men pushing hate and fascism in this country are almost all grifters:
Donald Trump Jr. is headlining #RNC2020 tonight.

Beyond this “We Build the Wall” grift, he’s associated with far-right extremists like Posobiec.

Here’s neo-Nazi Andrew Anglin praising him as a sympathizer in 2016, courtesy of @lukeobrien:

After a march in Warsaw that included neo-Nazi groups, Jack Posobiec met with Stefan Molyneux in a 5-star hotel.

Posobiec interviewed him. The men discussed white nationalism, per a source.

Read part 5 here: splcenter.org/hatewatch/2020…
"White nationalism" was on Molyneux's brain during this trip.

@CaolanRob leaked this footage in which Molyneux referred to a speech he gave in a propaganda film as his "white nationalism speech."

Posobiec cannot possibly plead ignorance here. Watch it:
Here's the superstar of @OANN doing "journalism" with a Canadian race science pundit, immediately following a march in Warsaw that included numerous neo-Nazi and ultranationalist groups.

@realDonaldTrump hypes this network and Jack Posobiec regularly:

.@OANN allowed Jack Posobiec to bring a virulently antisemitic, pro-Hitler "friend" on the air.

It's just one example of Posobiec serving as a bridge between the fringe, white supremacist web and a wider conservative audience:

Posobiec linked his followers to the Gab feed of "Microchip" at least five times when he had him on @OANN.

Around the same time, Microchip's Gab feed praised Atomwaffen Division and terrorism.

Microchip called Posobiec his online "buddy" in a chat with me.
Ask any reporter who covers the far-right what 8chan pol was like in 2017, pre-Christchurch terror. Just rampant neo-Nazi murder memes.

Jack Posobiec linked his followers to that forum. He also alerted them to the dox of CNN employees.

Why was Posobiec reading 8chan pol?
