A conservative group cut ties with right-wing columnist Michelle Malkin on Sunday over her support for an anti-Semitic internet personality, ramping up a growing conservative civil war centered on college campuses.
Malkins firing from Young Americas Foundation, whose speakers bureau had booked Malkin for speeches across the country for the past 17 years, marks the latest battle between supporters of Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes and more establishment conservative figures. <...>

How far have the repubs fallen? They now think it's "establishment" to believe the Holocaust happened. SMH

(9,999 posts)My son went to HS with him. He was class President where only student council kids could vote. Grew up in a bubble thinking Reagan was loved by everyone until he hit junior high school.
Very bright but lazy kid academically, could have chosen any career path. Always an opportunist. Model UN debater, always looking to pad his resume.

(8,090 posts)but that field was pretty crowded with the Ben Shapiros and Charlie Kirks of the world, so he took a hard alt-right turn. I wonder if he'll crash and burn like Katie McHugh, waiting tables at diners and relying on gofundmes to pay for life-saving medication...

(9,999 posts)Started styling his hair like Reagan in HS. He actually supported Rubio, then Cruz, and was more of a neverTrumper during the primaries. I guess that was before he found out how much money and attention could be had by getting a following and saying crazy racist shit. I honestly do not know if he believes the crap he spews or is doing it in part for entertainment like Rush or Coulter.

(5,122 posts)I don't believe they believe half the crap they say. They are still very dangerous though, because they will do anything for money even if it means tearing this country to shreds. Just look at some of their backgrounds and its quite revealing that they are doing this for personal gain. Sure one can change their way believing, but I'm not just not buying it from these folks.
He reminds me of Auntie Ruckus AKA Candace Owens, who previously got assistance from the NAACP for racism, now claims racism doesn't exist and shills for the re thugs and says vile shit defending Hitler. Gimme an effin break!

(90,551 posts)I find it encouraging (a tiny bit) that YAF cut ties with Malkin over her support for a Holocaust denier. Someone at YAF still has some integrity, it seems.
