In the Summer of 2017, “a fake Julian Assange account was the most influential contributor to the #Antifa hashtag (as measured by engagement), & both Roger Stone…& Nigel Farage were also among the top influencers…” by @RVAwonk, 9/1/17 #RogerStone 1/ medium.com/arc-digital/ho…
2/ “The third most influential contributor to the #Antifa hashtag was one of the many fake Antifa accounts (BevHillsAntifa) created in the spring and summer of 2017.”
3/ Moreover, within the same four-hour window (4pm-8pm) on 8/27/17, “Antifa went from ninth place to sixth place among the most frequently used hashtags within the sample of 600 accounts linked to Russian influence campaigns.” 👀

6/ There was even a petition in 2017 to designate “Antifa” as a terrorist organization. Until now, I thot the 1st such petition was the one circulated by Roger Stone’s miscreants (Jacob Engels & Enrique Tarrio) in 2019. I wonder if Stone’s miscreants started the one in 2017 too.
7/ Twitter permanently suspended Stone in October 2017, so his surrogates (esp. Jack Posobiec and the Proud Boys) mostly took over the Twitter “Antifa” messaging from there. thewrap.com/roger-stone-tw…
8/ In parts 2 & 3 of my Roger Stone and His Miscreants series, I also discuss the propaganda campaign against anti-fascism. jennycohn1.medium.com/roger-stone-th…
10/ It is no coincidence that Roger Stone and his miscreants later tried to blame Jan 6 on “Antifa.” This was a long campaign of psychological warfare. And it is ongoing.

Americans are sleepwalking into something they don’t understand. Only 9% of CHRISTIANS (and 6% of Americans) share the Christian Right’s extreme “biblical worldview,” per Family Research Council (FRC) president Tony Perkins. This is based on FRC’s OWN DATA - Me w/ @RepRiggleman. 1/
2/ As Denver & I discussed, Perkins is the immediate past president of the Council for National Policy (CNP), the Christian Right’s umbrella. Yes, the CNP includes Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts & SCOTUS kingpin Leonard Leo.

Thank you, @RepRiggleman and @MeidasTouch for having me on Coalition of the Sane!

Denver: “If you had to prioritize, who is the … I have a name…Who is the person that you think…”

Me: “Leonard Leo!”

2/ Link to full Interview, which is brilliantly edited to add photos of the key players in America’s Christian extremist web, as Denver and I discuss them.

😳 Heritage Foundation (lead organizer of Project 2025) has on three separate occasions in the last week or two promoted Trump/Heritage alum William Wolfe, a militant fundamentalist Christian and leading figure in the self-professed “Christian Nationalism” movement. 1/

In the wake of today’s horrific shooting at a Trump rally, Trump is receiving the type of grace that he has withheld from others. Listen to how he reacted to the conspiracy to kidnap Governor Whitmer. 1/
