Since GlomarResponder was first created in 2012, the account has posted hateful, xenophobic, and pro-fascist content. “America is a White nation, founded by Whites. … Our country should favor us,” GlomarResponder wrote last month.
As @marisakabas2 reported recently, Andrew Kloster has a history of misogynistic posts online. Today, I can report that Kloster's primary email address cited in this document is associated with an account on an escort service website. 
It turns out that Trump and Vance were not wrong that people are illegally hunting wildlife in Springfield, Ohio — they just accused the wrong person.
I was able to verify that the email belongs to Miller via court docs. The Ashley Madison profile associated with the email was created in 2009 with GPS coordinates in southeast Washington D.C. Miller lived in Washington D.C. at the time, per court docs.
Unclear to me why anyone would have created an Ashley Madison account using Chris Rufo's email address years before he was a public figure.

The call recording I received included the caller's phone number. Their first name is Toby. I called the number and reached a man who sounded like the man on the recording. When I asked if he was Toby, he asked who was calling. I told him I'm a journalist. He immediately hung up.
Monty Bennett, the chairman of Ashford, has donated thousands to the campaigns of Justices Brett Busby, Debra Lehrmann, Evan Young, Jane Bland, Jimmy Blacklock, John Devine, Nathan Hecht, and Rebecca Huddle. Bennett's website, the Dallas Express, openly supports Dallas Hero.
In addition to Bennett, other Texas Foundation for Education Rights board members include Chris Putnam. Putnam, in addition to being the finance committee chair for the Tarrant County GOP, is the current CEO of the Dallas Express, Bennett's right wing website.
Shannon Braun, a right wing school board trustee in the Grapevine Colleyville district who was elected with the help of big money PACs and GOP consultants, publicly claimed on April 6 that someone manufactured fake tweets and posted them on Facebook. But the tweets are real.
Despite the press advisory Gov. Greg Abbott sent out about his speech I'm the only member of the press here at the Young Conservatives of Texas convention where he's about to speak. The lighting on stage is terrible. 
In March, Mayor Eric Johnson hired former Dallas Express writer Noah DeGarmo as a comms and policy specialist. While working at the Dallas Express, DeGarmo wrote a handful of favorable articles about Johnson and his controversial switch to the Republican party.
