1/ Recently, I told you how @goud4clerk made posts on Telegram where he claimed Democrats cheated and stole the 2020 election.

There were lots of other posts from Maragani expressing anti-vax, anti-mask and other far-right beliefs #utpol

sltrib.com/news/politics/…

2/ In this post from July, 2021, Maragani responds to a story alleging students were told to hide 'equity survey' questions from parents.

"It's what commies do. We need 100% school choice so parents can pull their kids out of government schools," Maragani wrote #utpol

3/ Also from July, 2021, Maragani says he wants elected officials who will "impeach" the chief justice of the Utah Supreme Court because he issued a mask mandate during the COVID pandemic.

"If he's issuing mask mandates, he won't rule conservatively on other issues" #utpol

4/ In August, 2021, Maragani makes his first post about "election integrity."

"It's making sure that our election results reflect what voters actually want (whether it's a Democrat or Republican) versus what the people in power want" #utpol

5/ On Aug. 3, 2021, Maragani calls the Democrat Party "the enemy" and claims Republicans in the U.S. Senate are feckless #utpol

6/ This one is fairly tame compared to some of the other posts from Maragani.

On Aug. 3, 2021, he calls Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh a "wimp" for letting the COVID-related eviction moratorium continue #utpol

7/ In this post from Aug. 3, 2021, Maragani calls a doctor warning about COVID a "clown" and a "Marxist trying to impose masks on kids which is part of their program to indoctrinate children with all their garbage" #utpol

8/ Here Maragani says Gov. Spencer Cox and Sen. Mitt Romney should be "top targets" in the 2024 elections.

"In 2022, we need to focus on all our local races to get the Democrat infiltrators (aka, RINOs) out of the party" #utpol

9/ On Aug. 9, 2021, Maragani says Utah Republicans need to follow Wyoming's example and kick Gov. Spencer Cox, Sen. Mitt Romney and "any Republicans who supported mask mandates, business closures, etc." out of the party #utpol

10/ Here Margani responds to a post from far-right commentator Lauren Witzke who complained her co-host is on a "watch list."

Witzke is known for her anti-LGBTQ views and promotion of QAnon #utpol

11/ In this longer post from Aug. 13, 2021, Maragani complains about federal employees abuse the rights of "normal Americans every time a Democrat comes into office."

"You're seeing that in action with the 1/6 protesters" #utpol

12/ During the U.S. military evacuation from Afghanistan, Maragani complained Afghan refugees would be brought to Utah to "turn our area into the next Minneapolis" #utpol

13/ Maragani also suggested Afghani refugees being brought to the U.S. were cowardly for not staying to fight.

"Those don't look like refugees. They look like deserters unwilling to fight for their own country" #utpol

14/ In response to the story about a Lehi High School teacher caught on tape telling students promoting vaccinations and that she hated Donald Trump, Maragani said teachers are "part of the problem."

"A lot of them are just trained Marxists" #utpol

15/ Maragani called mask mandates in schools "child abuse" in this Aug. 19, 2021 post.

"If you even consider a mask mandate, we, as Patriots, shouldn't vote for you even if you vote the right way" #utpol

16/ "I think all Democrats (elected or running for office) are Marxists" - Goud Maragani, 8/19/2021 #utpol

17/ In response to a story about a possible investigation of Utah by the U.S. Dept. of Education over laws restricting mask mandates in schools:

"Our federal Senators and Reps need to refuse to fund the Department of Education. Shut it down" #utpol

18/ Maragani continued his hostility toward resettling Afghani refugees, accusing religious organizations of "human trafficking" because they get money from the federal government #utpol

19/ In this post from Sept. 2021, @goud4clerk says Republicans should shut down the government to stop vaccine mandates.

He also wants President Biden, VP Harris and others impeached or the U.S. will be a "communist country like Australia" #utpol

20/ Here, Maragani suggests the COVID vaccine mandate for military members is a way to get rid of those who support Donald Trump #utpol
