About time! MAGA Archbishop Carlos Maria Vigano, a far right Putin loving culture warrior & ally of Michael Flynn & Steve Bannon, has been excommunicated! He spoke on Flynn’s Reawaken America Tour last year, during the Dec 2020 Jericho March, & . w/ Bannon on 1/4/21. 1/
7/ In March 2023, Vigano spoke during the first Congress of the International Movement of Russophiles with Sergei Lavrov, Aleksandr Dugin, and Konstantin Malofeev.
8/ That month, Hamas leadership said it had recently met with Lavrov. They had met with him on prior occasions too.

10/ Remember how Trump gave classified Israeli intelligence to Lavrov?
Terrific post by @LuluFriesdat of @Smart_elections —which seeks a hand recount of the presidential election in Rockland County, NY—in which they correct those who have wrongly suggested that Smart Elections’ legitimate concerns & findings thus far amount to “proof” that the election was rigged for Trump.
THIS is what credible election integrity messaging looks like: “Are we concerned about all the software updates they released? You bet we are. Can we say conclusively that there was some kind of malware in those updates that changed vote totals? No we cannot. That’s why we’re in court. To get that kind of information.”

Those of you who have followed me for years know that I spent about four years of my life focusing on election security. (See my article below.) 2/ buckscountybeacon.com/2023/10/trump-…
3/ After the Big Lie, I felt that the movement had been so discredited—by people improperly conflating vulnerabilities with “proof” of fraud & then using that non-existent “proof” to justify violence—that I could no longer effectively advance this ball.
“As of three weeks ago, 172 of these individuals [pardoned by Trump] had pled guilty to assaulting law enforcement. By their own admission, they assaulted police. About 140 officers were injured, including Officer Brian Sicknick, who died the following day. Four officers who responded that day have since died by suicide.” 1/25/25 (Link in post 2.)

Trump has picked Paul Ingrassia to lead the Office of Special Counsel. As of 9 days ago, Ingrassia’s Instagram included a pinned photo of himself w/ self-professed “misogynist” Andrew Tate who has since been charged w/ rape & trafficking in the UK & who performed the Nazi salute on video (in apparent defense of Elon Musk). 1/
MAGA’s favorite White South African activist group—Afriforum—admitted last year that “there is no white genocide going on in South Africa.”
(In 2018, Afriforum had traveled to the US to discuss their claim that White South African farmers were being murdered due to their race. They have since hobnobbed with Tucker Carlson, Jack Posobiec, New Founding, CPAC, & NatCon.) 1/
The Center for Renewing America—founded by Trump’s OMB Director pick Russ Vought, a top architect of Project 2025—has *explicitly* said that it wants the federal govt to “eliminate” Obamacare’s life-saving Medicaid expansion. Here are some stats on the expansion. 1/ cbpp.org/research/healt…
