🧵A Timeline of Hate, Lies, Sexual Assault & The Targeting of Minors

How @JonathanOswaks & Jon Von Colln incited violence at #FreePalestine protests and are now capitalizing on the death of Paul Kessler, the counter protester they encouraged and then abandoned on Nov. 5th. 1/14

Jonathan Oswaks
Jon Von Colln 2/14
After the first Free Palestine protest on Oct. 22 in Westlake Village, Jon Oswaks puts out a call on NextDoor to counter protest the event, Paul Kessler answers & says he’ll join him. They show up on Oct. 29 to “just film and see what’s going on” but that isn’t what they do.
Paul Kessler standing with Jonathan Oswaks yelling and flipping off Pro-Palestine protesters on Nov. 29, 2023.

What do we know about this account? On Nov 2nd 2020 Betsy Jill Jones (then living in Ventura, CA with Gary N Jones) registered the trademark for Patriots of Ventura County. On Nov 13 2020 the IG account went active promoting a rally focused on election fraud conspiracies. 12/20 ImageImage On November 15, 2020 the POVC account shared images from a rally, including this bearded guy (?) wearing a POVC hat and images of Ronda Kennedy and others (?) holding a POVC banner. 13/20 ImageImageImage

🧵Time to have a look at a “local” organization engaged in online hate and disinformation. The Patriots of Ventura County (POVC) Instagram is a favorite of many locals. We’ll look at the network, the content, and what we know (and don’t know) about the owners of the account. 1/20 The POVC account is followed and engaged with by some individuals and organizations familiar in Conejo Valley right wing extremist activism. 2/20 ImageImageImage

🧵Kyle posted this ad hominem false equivalency response in our recent public discussion about the community members angered by the @TOAcornNews apparent new editorial direction. 1/10 Image To begin, this was disingenuous because the discussion’s operational definition of “accountability” was already established by Kyle’s previous tweet which we responded to directly. 2/10 Image

🧵Back in September 2022 local female activist @TOAntifaAvenger placed a “Nazis Not Welcome” banner in Newbury Park on a white supremacy “day of activism.” A lone individual tore it down but was confronted by the activist.

🧵Time to shine a 💡 on @covered6llc, a Moorpark-based security company with ties to religious extremism and Anti-LGBTQI rhetoric. This company has engaged deceitful practices in order to maintain a lucrative contract with @LVUSD funded by CA Prop 56. We have receipts. 1/25 On September 13, 2022, the @LVUSD approved a contract with @covered6llc to provide on-campus security. The contract is for 3 “security specialists” dedicated to the district. /2

It’s time for a 🧵 on the man calling himself “socal parent advocates.” Ben Richards (aka Bryce Henson). We’ll go down some rabbit holes before bringing it back home to the Conejo Valley. Buckle up. 1/14 Ben was recently hosted by “Equivocation Eddy” on the @GodSpeakCCTO adjacent Bryce Eddy Show.” He spun a narrative almost identical to the story of Conejo Valley’s #hatedad

🧵 1/10 Hello, Conejas and Conejos. It’s time to share some concerning information about the Good News Club (GNC), a Christian initiative to indoctrinate children in public schools—our local group has direct ties to @GodSpeakCCTO and the wife of a convicted child sex offender. The Good News Club is a ministry of the Child Evangelism Fellowship (CEF) “whose purpose is to evangelize boys and girls with the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to establish (disciple) them in the Word of God.”
*note the word “discipline” used as a synonym for “establish.” /2

🧵It’s time to shine some light on the connection between recent “anti-groomer” rhetoric (targeting our LGBTQ friends and neighbors) and established white supremacy initiatives. /1 In December 2022, on telegram, the white lives matter (WLM) initiative promised a coming revision of their “activist” manual. This is the PDF manual they distribute to recruit and guide white supremacists in promoting hate through banner drops, sticker campaigns, etc. /2

🧵Time to share another connection between @GodSpeakCCTO and a convicted sex offender. As of yesterday we have confirmed that Beth Bernstein, listed on Godspeak's Ministry Staff as the Nursery Director is married to convicted sex offender Timothy Bayne Bernstein. /1 Some long-time CV residents and natives remember back in 2001 when Law Enforcement began investigating reports of sexual crimes committed by a youth pastor who was a director of elementary programs at Calvary Community Church in Westlake Village. /2

It's a lot. /1 Major problem with @robmccoyus defending Thom is not once does Thom mention the fact that he was previously placed on probation in 1990 after pleading no contest to lewd conduct involving children in Manhattan Beach, and that additional charges were dropped to protect victims./2 LA TIMES article showing re...
