Fun fact: the president of MTG’s publisher, Sergio Gor, is a former Rand Paul aide who traveled to Moscow with Paul when Paul delivered that letter from Trump to Putin’s administration. 1/
Sergio Gor co-founded the publishing company, Winning Team Publishing, with Don Jr. Washington Examiner excerpt: 2/
8/ Links for post 7 are in my latest article. While researching it, Rand Paul and Ron Paul (Rand’s dad) unexpectedly (to me) came to the fore. buckscountybeacon.com/2023/10/trump-…
9/ Three whole RTs. It’s going to take a lot of rubles to make MTG’s book into a “bestseller.”
18/ Good Lord, check out Sergio Gor’s employment history. In addition to Trump & Rand Paul, he’s worked for Michelle Bachmann & Steve King. Gor’s Russia trip was funded by the Cato Institute. legistorm.com/person/bio/143…
22/ Interesting that the guy who traveled to Moscow w/ Rand Paul (where Paul hand delivered Trump’s letter to Putin’s administration) later joined the Trump campaign’s finance arm. And that he’s now making MAGAs $$$ by publishing their books. courier-journal.com/story/news/pol…
@TheRickWilson 32/ It seems that Sergio Gor collaborated with Matt Gaetz on Gaetz’s book (before Gor opened his own publishing company with Don Jr). Gaetz did not initially disclose his royalties. thedailybeast.com/lauren-boebert…
@TheRickWilson 33/ Again, Sergio Gor opened his own book publishing company after he collaborated w/ Gaetz on this lemon. thedailybeast.com/matt-gaetz-fai…
@TheRickWilson 35/ “Rand Paul spokesman Sergio Gor did not respond Tuesday to several inquiries about [Jesse] Benton, who managed the younger Paul's 2010 Senate campaign in Kentucky.” 9/3/14
@TheRickWilson 47/ “GOP operative [former Rand Paul aide, Jesse Benton] found guilty of funneling Russian money to Donald Trump” washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2022/…
@TheRickWilson 48/ Jesse Benton had previously received a pardon from Trump re: another alleged crime bc of course he did.
@TheRickWilson 49/ It’s fair to wonder to what extent MAGA uses smoke and mirrors to inflate book sales.
@TheRickWilson 50/ Yes, the publishing company founded by Sergio Gor and Don Jr (Winning Team Publishing) has published a book by Charlie Kirk.
@TheRickWilson 51/ “In 2020, Turning Point paid Donald Trump Jr. $333,000 through his company Pursuit Ventures. Kolvet said the money was used to purchase copies of a book he wrote that was offered as a gift during a fundraising drive.” 10/10/23 h/t @JaneMayerNYer apnews.com/article/electi…
@TheRickWilson @JaneMayerNYer 52/ The AP article doesn’t identify which Don Jr book was purchased by Charlie Kirk for $333,000 in 2020. But the company founded by Sergio Gor & Don Jr (Winning Team Publishing) credits itself w/ a book by Don Jr. called “Liberal Privilege” that was published in Aug 2020.
@TheRickWilson @JaneMayerNYer 53/ Which is odd given that Winning Team Publishing wasn’t founded until Nov 2021. politico.com/news/2021/11/3…
@TheRickWilson @JaneMayerNYer 54/ My guess is that Don Jr’s book was originally published by Sergio Gor’s old company, Gold Standard Publishing, which was then folded into the newer company, Winning Team Publishing.
@TheRickWilson @JaneMayerNYer 55/ And my guess was correct: Don Jr’s book was originally published by Sergio Gor’s old company. Seems it was a “bestseller.” Having Charlie Kirk buy $333K worth of books wld be one way to make that happen. My God these people are so phony. So much deception.
56/ Sergio Gor founded Gold Standard in Aug 2020, a few weeks before Don Jr’s book was released.
57/ Reminder:
58/ This could be part of the reason…

The “Save America Act” says that all states “shall” submit their voter lists to the DHS’s “SAVE” voter purge program, which has error rates as high as 14% & relies on data from SSA whose databases were mishandled by DOGE. I include this & the Act’s other parts in this summary. 1/
The Save America Act “requires all states to turn over all voter rolls…to the [DHS]” & to “use a voter purge system created by DOGE, relying on [SSA] data that has been shown to be unreliable...” This is the same DOGE that allegedly “made off with … [SSA] information…” By @NormOrnstein 1/
I read the “Save America Act,” so you don’t have to. Most of the media apparently *hasn’t* read it because, if they had, they would be sounding the alarm about the provision in Point 1, below, which almost none of them have even mentioned. I hope this helps raise awareness. 1/
“Here’s Which DOGE Goon Allegedly Took Social Security Data *** That ex-DOGE staffer has since been identified by others in Washington, and his name is John Solly, multiple sources told WIRED.” 3/12/26 … 1/
BREAKING: The latest whistleblower report re: DOGE’s alleged compromise of SSA’s databases has dire implications for the Trump-backed so-called “Save America Act,” which requires that all 50 states submit their voter registration lists to the DHS’s “Save” voter purge system that depends on SSA’s data. I’ve updated my summary of the Act to reflect this underreported connection. 1/ #NoOnSave #ProtectOurVotes
BREAKING: A new whistleblower report alleges that a former DOGE member claimed he kept his SSA computer & credentials w/ “God-level” access to SSA systems. Yet the “Save America Act” wld force every state to rely on a voter-purge system dependent on SSA data, creating a national election security threat. 1/
