tucker carlson interviewed nick fuentes and the #MAGA coalition is in absolute meltdown.
- on one side you have the pro #israel, pro #netanyahu neoneocons who are shocked - shocked! - that there is #antisemitism going on in this establishment (just ignore the fact that they voted for the guy who invited fuentes and kanye to dinner at Mar-A-Lago)
- on the other side you have MAGA influencers with enormous followings finally just taking the mask off and saying "nick's right, the problem is the jews"
...and the groypers are swarming everyone's replies with non-stop #hitler memes.
i feel like this interview finally put the match to the antisemitic gasoline that Candace Owens has been pumping for years now.
incredible drama 🍿

In case you were inclined to think that overt fascists were new to Turning Point, Late Night Antifa has a new report on "Kansas Zoomer" Ian Ballinger, who was the "outreach director and social media manager" for Turning Point's campus chapter while he was a student at Kansas University between 2018-22. Between 2020-22, he was deeply involved in Nick Fuentes' "Groyper" scene and has a long track record of posting openly nazi shit online.
He's now a primary school social studies teacher at Prairie View USD 362 in La Cygne, Kansas, about an hour south of Kansas City, and he's got some literally biblical ideas about how young is okay for girls to get married. It's only downhill from there.
This is a person who should not be working with kids. If you feel like letting his employer know, have at it (link in the article), but please be nice to the people who answer the phone or check the email. They didn't ask for this shit.

Meiselas notes that that Ken Klippenstein reports that "a 'Threat Screening Center' has been established in a secretive Northern Virginia office complex, just seven miles from CIA headquarters, to compile watchlists of Americans who meet these new 'terrorism indicators.' According to his reporting, staff there are analyzing social media posts, podcasts, and even public speeches to identify individuals considered 'anti-Christian' or 'anti-capitalist.'”
Ben Meiselas discusses a secret directive of the Trump administration targeting Americans whose political or religious beliefs the administration wants to squelch. The document is called National Security Presidential Memorandum-7, or NSPM-7.

"The politics of evangelicals are overwhelmingly conservative. Though a minority, they punch far above their weight politically, with reliable votes, full coffers, and lockstep political ideology, pulling the nation ever further toward a straight, white theocracy.”

“Beyond our zealous faith, the other Great American preoccupation—the one we're most famous for, the one that makes our streets proverbially paved with gold unless proverbially paved with strip malls—is money.
It would be a great mistake to think that money and faith live in separate realms. Faith can be the biggest cash cow of them all.”

“Around 14 percent of the US population, nearly 50 million people, identify themselves as white evangelical Protestants. ‘Though [white evangelicals] make up just 14% of Americans overall, they remain the largest single religious group among Republican voters with the power to sway party priorities,’ noted reporter Becky Sullivan on NPR's Morning Edition."

"'We're saving Christianity. We've saving God,' Eric Trump said Tuesday on the Benny Show podcast. 'We've saving the family unit. We're saving this nation.'"
This is not unrelated, of course, to the stepped-up attack on anyone remembering Charlie Kirk as he was and remembering exactly what he said and did. The idea that the Trumps are "saving God" is rich and ludicrous, given who they are. But a certain kind of religion has utilitarian value for fascists….

"President Trump’s son Eric has provoked confusion and anger online from critics with comments on Tuesday painting his father’s movement as responsible for saving Christianity and religion in general, while claiming a divine hand led his father back to the White House."

"Unlike executive orders, which are public and typically govern daily administrative actions, a National Security Presidential Memorandum is a top-level directive used to coordinate military, intelligence, and law enforcement strategy. NSPM-7, signed quietly in the Oval Office, effectively redefines dissent as domestic terrorism."

"Essentially the administration is establishing a theocracy in which it's blasphemy to speak snark about Kirk (and the double standard, as cascades of hate speech from Young Republicans spill out in that Politico article, is the point…."
"Someone needs to do a roundup article on 'Charlie Kirk censorship' because there's so much repression of free speech for anyone who had anything irreverent to say about him. From Jimmy Kimmel to these immigrants."

Marcy Wheeler comments on the Trump administration revoking visas for six people with claims that these people criticized Charlie Kirk after his death:
"It’s one thing to find Palestinian supporters targeted by a hate group. It’s another thing to find people with an opinion about Charlie Kirk, because one’s opinion about Charlie Kirk has no conceivable tie to national security or even foreign policy."
