Posobiec calls himself a "prior intellgence officer."
He was a racist GoT blogger in the Navy who wrote an 'Agent Poso' comic book based on himself...& who actually had "ancillary duties as a urinalysis officer & overseeing physical fitness testing in his units."
MTG — featured speaker at white supremacist conference last yr where fellow speakers praised Hitler & called for hanging Fauci— is now speaking at #CPAC2023.
Talking about "disturbing ideology that tells the most incredible lie that children can actually change their gender"
MTG spending the whole speech talking about trans kids.
Says she'll re-introduce "Protect Children's Innocence Act" which will make it a felony to do any gender-affirming care on children. (Insinuates she has McCarthy's support)
Says people like "Bill Maher" agree with me
CPAC so far today singularly obsessed with anti-trans messaging. Now on stage, Chloe Cole, who "detransitioned," and Riley Gaines, NCAA swimmer against trans athletes in college sports
A thread on the eliminationist anti-trans rhetoric of CPAC — including Michael Knowles calling for trans people to be “eradicated from public life entirely” — & why it’s a five-alarm fire.
Knowles isn’t some fringe figure. He works for a multimillion dollar media company. His videos get tons of views. He has one of the most-listened-to news podcasts in the country. Until recently, he co-hosted a podcast with Sen. Ted Cruz.
And he spoke from the main stage at CPAC the same day Trump did. Here’s what Knowles said on Saturday to big cheers.
NEW: Meet the Sacramento dildo saleswoman behind the "Terrorgram Collective," a neo-Nazi network that advocates mass shootings & calls shooters "saints."
Her propaganda helped inspired a shooting at a gay bar. Now she's been unmasked. Meet Dallas Humber. huffpost.com/entry/dallas-h…
Last year a man killed two people at a Slovakian gay bar. In his "manifesto" he specifically thanked the Terrorgram Collective for helping inspire him.
New: A married couple in Ohio have been identified as the creators of a Telegram channel — w/ 2.5k subscribers — for parents who want to home-school their kids to become "wonderful Nazis."
The channel, run by a pseudonymous couple called Mr. and Mrs. Saxon, includes lesson plans on various subjects, like Robert E. Lee (a “grand role model for young, white men”) and MLK Jr. (“the antithesis of our civilization and our people”).
Year-end thread — a year of reporting on a rapidly radicalizing GOP, a Nazi cop in Mass., a Patriot Front hate crime spree across the U.S., Jan. 6 revisionism, a Christian nationalist candidate back home in PA, & more.
Started '22 w/ a story abt Brevard County — home to a very high number of arrested J6 rioters.
It's also home to a particularly vindictive group of MAGA pols who target their enemies w/ shocking cruelty, possibly inciting incidents of political violence. huffpost.com/entry/brevard-…
I wrote some stories about Tucker Carlson, who in 2022 certified his status as a modern-day Father Coughlin, using his primetime show/Fox Nation program to push Daily Stormer-esque propaganda.
Fuentes as vile as they come. Explicitly racist & antisemitic, praised Hitler, says n word, marched w/ Nazis in C’ville, cheered on J6 rioters at the Capitol, Holocaust denier, advocates political violence/killing lawmakers…
Now having dinner w Trump, de facto leader of GOP
Have ended up writing a lot about Fuentes over the year, as he’s used the strategy of entryism to make inroads with the GOP… he’s been working towards this moment for years.
