3.) Farris took over the homeschooling movement and empowered the Christian evangelical sect, in which children are homeschooled in a radical religious vision to take over the government. You could call them madrassas.

4.) Christian nationalism scholar @C_Stroop answers the post-insurrection question of "who radicalized them"?

11.) This are familiar; the point is homeschooling texts promoted by @HawleyMO's political grandfather, Michael Farris, promulgate them and helped form the insurrection.
Mandela, Obama, BLM are Marxist agitators, racially divisive
huffpost.com/entry/christia…

12.) Homeschooling Christian history texts promoted by @HawleyMO's political grandfather, Michael Farris, promulgate these ideas and helped form the insurrection.
Media and Hollywood oppose morality and Iraq war.

Anti-media, anti-immigrant
Psychiatry invented by Satan
Homosexuality condemned
Christian culture identified with military and guns
White supremacy

14.) Christian flags carried to the Jan. 6 insurrection are those saluted by #ChristianNationalist home schoolers -- the movement @HawleyMO's premier political advisor, Timmy Teepell, springs from.
The flags:

15.) #ChristianNationalist home schoolers recognize the Christian flags flown at the insurrection -- home schooling the movement in which Timmy Teepell, who is running @HawleyMO's Trumpist pres campaign, cut his political teeth.

16.) In this part of the thread, I show where @HawleyMO's politics mesh with Farris, homeschool rhetoric, and #ChristianNationalism in general.
He called the D.C. protesters who demonstrated peacefully at his house "antifa scumbags", per BLM as Marxists.

20.) Per Michael Farris/Timmy Teepell homeschool curriculum tenets, @HawleyMO blames the media and Hollywood for menacing decline in American morals.
kansascity.com/news/local/new…

21.) Per Michael Farris/Timmy Teepell homeschool rhetoric, @HawleyMO used the word "globalists" to mean "cosmopolitan elites" in his notorious 2019 National Conservatism Conference speech thought by many to be anti-semitic.

22.)

23.) Per Michael Farris/Timmy Teepell homeschool rhetoric, "globalists" -- which may be racist code for Jews or George Soros -- oppose the #ChristianNationalist takeover of government they espouse. Their protege, @HawleyMO's speech:
hawley.senate.gov/senator-josh-h…

24.) @HawleyMO's other political DNA, post-liberalism, fingers Big Tech as the Soros-like globalist villain eroding #ChristianNationalist borders, values, and minds.
newrepublic.com/article/154526…

25.) Can't find if or where @HawleyMO espouses his mentors', Farris/Teepell, homeschool rhetoric that evolution/environmentalism = junk science. As the leading spokesman for post-liberalism, he allies himself with thinkers opposed to the Enlightenment -- the scientific revolution

26.) @HawleyMO's post-liberal political DNA allies him with thinkers who oppose the scientific revolution, reason, and the Age of Enlightenment.
newrepublic.com/article/154526…

27.) Media bashing as he runs after camera crews across public space in the Capitol may be the most visibly hypocritical thing @HawleyMO does. He regularly bashes print media, including his hometown papers, the KC Star and StLPost-Dispatch as Marxist rags.

28.) It's classic fascist rhetoric, and a cornerstone of the Farris/Teepell homeschool curriculum rhetoric that their protege @HawleyMO promulgates.
esquire.com/news-politics/…

29.) Media bashing is a cornerstone of homeschooling textbooks, as promulgated by Michael Farris, Timmy Teepell and their protege @HawleyMO. It's also a cornerstone of fascist rhetoric.

30.) Michael Farris is on the SPLC Hatewatch list as president of the virulently anti-gay litigation group Alliance Defending Freedom, supported by 30 #ChristianNationalist pastors.
splcenter.org/fighting-hate/…

31.) @HawleyMO counts Teepell and his wife as his closest counsellors, per KCStar Teepell profile. Both he and his wife are published by anti-gay activists -- Erin Morrow Hawley by Focus on the Family, monitored as a subsidiary of SPLC hate group Family Research Council.

32.) The publisher of Erin Morrow @HawleyMO's performative Christian book is monitored by SPLC's Hatewatch as a subsidiary of the hate group, Family Research Council, a leading anti-gay activist organization.
splcenter.org/fighting-hate/…

33.) The publisher of @HawleyMO's forthcoming book on Big Tech is part of the family of the venerable white supremacist and anti-semite William Regnery, founder of a Nazi think tank and publisher of a racist journal, also an SPLC designated hate group.

35.) Michael Farris' goal in taking over the home school movement, and founding Patrick Henry College in 2000, was to implant #ChristianNationalists like Teepell and @HawleyMO in the U.S. government, to enact a Christian politics.
responsiblehomeschooling.org/research/summa…

36.) Patrick Henry College, of whom Matthew Cawthorn is the most notorious attendee, has a mission.
(Farris did not endorse Cawthorn's House campaign due to sexual harassment allegations against him during his time at PHC.)

37.) The degree to which this mission of Matthew Farris, his political protege Timmy Teepell, and Teepell's client @HawleyMO, to storm the bastions of government extended to the Jan. 6 insurrection, and the homeschool radicalization of participants, is essential to the conspiracy

Here @HawleyMO uses "George Soros" as an adjective. Experts consider this to be anti-semitic code.

Dog whistling and code words are a cornerstone of fascist rhetoric. It's a week's study at a Yale course on Language and Power taught by Jack Belkin and Jason Stanley. @HawleyMO and Hitler's codes, and "Soros" as anti-semitic code, are among the topics.
