When Pete Hegseth went to Europe to echo Kremlin propaganda this week, he banned almost all media from coming with him. But he invited Jack Posobiec to travel with him.
This is chilling if you know who Jack Posobiec is.

The Washington Post · Hegseth team invites far-right activist Jack Posobiec on overseas tripBy Dan Lamothe

This is the kind of thing that just a decade ago you’d mostly only see on marginal, explicitly Nazi forums like Stormfront.

This account has 3.5 million followers & gets promoted by the richest man in the world, who is also a US military contractor & current advisor to the president.

At the training in #Michigan, #JackPosobiec implored *volunteers* to look out for issues that could be publicized more widely or taken up by lawyers.

“You need to think of yourself as the ground forces, as the army that’s going be out there, the eyes & the ears of the #Trump campaign, of the #Republican Party, that are there on the front line to say, we are going to catch you & when we catch you we’re going to make a stink about it,” Posobiec said.

#JackPosobiec told the group they were the “final line of defense against the encroaching Marxism.”

“We’ve already seen the Marxism start creeping in. It’s already begun. The question is, are we going to let them finish the job or not?”

…In addition to the #Michigan training, Posobiec was also scheduled to speak to a group in #Wisconsin a few days later.

A few years ago, #JackPosobiec was a fringe figure & a #RightWing agitator best known for helping spread “Pizzagate,” a [#Qanon] #ConspiracyTheory about Democrats running a satanic child abuse ring underneath a Washington pizza parlor. [which led to a shooting]

This month, he was invited by the #Republican National Cmte to speak to a group of *volunteers* about how to monitor elections in #Michigan.

Political wonks I used to follow but stopped following, and why:

#ElijahSchaffer - Neo-Nazism

#MiloYiannopoulos - Antagonistic, unhinged and potentially bad faith

#StevenCrowder - Factual inaccuracies then, now mistreating his staff and wife

#Hasanabi - Bad faith

#JacksonHinkle - Pro #Russia propaganda, bad faith

#TheMajorityReport’s #SamSeder - Bad faith, manipulation via framing and misinformtion

#JennaEllis - Continuing to fight over the 2020 election despite the fact that it happened long ago, potential conspiracy theorist

#BenShapiro - Neocon

#CarolineKwan - Bad faith, poorly informed

#MichaelSavage - Racist, homophobic (legitimately, not in the cucked sense of the word)

#AllieBethStuckey - Conspiracy theorist and pseudoscientific misinformation

#OfficerTatum - Calling a black person a “gorilla”

#Destiny - Supporting political violence

#SteveDeace - Supporting and associating with #Christian nationalist #JackHibbs

#DaveRubin - Joking and gloating about the attack against #PaulPelosi

I also stopped following #TimPool for a bit after #AdamCrigler exposed him for cheating on his GF with #Sourpatchlyds, who had (and still has!) a husband at the time and mistreating his staff, although his commentary is good so I’ve started watching #TimcastIRL again

I also stopped following #JackPosobiec because he was off about something (I forget what it was). I now check out his tweets here and there, but don’t use him as an authoritative primary source for anything.
