These are the pigs that broadcast anti-transgender propaganda before the 2022 midterm elections. They’re also a massive super PAC that spent $134M on Trump in 2020. Their motto is “A weak Republican is worse than a Democrat.”

America First is the springboard for Project 2025.

America First (and Save America for that matter) are both Russian fronts. I caught AFPAC taking euro and FBI said LOL.

Interesting. Got any links on the connections? I’d like to read about it.

Why do journalists grant their fantasies instead of reporting on these people for what they are: conspiracy nuts.

Investigation after investigation in precints all over the country, many controlled by Republican secretaries of state has found no widespread fraud.

These people are conspiracy nuts. What are we doing reporting on them like they're talking about reality? Is everyone afraid to point out the emperor has no clothes or what?

Because Donald J Trump is their guy. He might well win.

Because Americans love them some crazed lunatic "reality" entertainment.

Ah I see that American conservatives are already in the "lose control of the the fascist movement they fostered" step.
