So @PublishersWkly just gave my book about antifa a STARRED review!
To Catch A Fascist is an “urgent, eye-opening debut” that is “by turns heart-pounding and heartening glimpse of the fight against fascism in the shadows.”

TPM's @letsgomathias joined
@onthemedia to discuss his recent reporting on Chris Rufo, his “Indian Question" and the "veneer of legitimacy" that "has helped Rufo mainstream an arguably fascist agenda." Listen here:

New: Chris Rufo & his co-host devoted podcast to "The Indian Question," framing Desi people as a problem to be solved. Their "solution?" Expulsion. For those allowed to remain: an “assimilation hazing process” w/ instances of “vulgar, defamatory racism" talkingpointsmemo.com/news/c…

Very grateful to go on @onthemedia to discuss Chris Rufo, his “Indian Question,” and why Rufo deserves more of the media’s scorn and disdain, and fewer polite sit-down interviews on New York Times podcasts wnycstudios.org/podcasts/otm…

Some ~personal news~
After five amazing years, I've been let go from @Independent. I am grateful for the time I have had there. With that in mind, I am absolutely looking for new work opportunities, especially ahead if the midterms. My email is EMGarcia2009@gmail.com

Rufo has his fingers in all of ugliest MAGA propaganda campaigns — DEI, CRT, Somali daycare fraud, "groomers," Haitians stealing & eating pets... — and now "The Indian Question"

I reached out to Manhattan Institute, where Rufo derives so much of his legitimacy as a "senior fellow," to see if it has any comment about him pushing "The Indian Question."
No response, will let ya know if that changes talkingpointsmemo.com/news/c…

Been a while since I've seen reputation management this desperate, from Biden's top foreign policy advisors.
That's how damning the revelations are in @AkbarSAhmed's new book, Crossing the Red Line. You can get your copy here: wwnorton.com/books/978132411…

Exclusive: In late 2024, FBI agents were looking at Sen. Susan Collins’ role in a massive illegal bribery scheme alleged by a former federal contractor. Then Trump gutted the FBI and DOJ, leaving no one to carry on the investigation – it’s dead. 🧵

New for @TPM: Marshall Rawson, GOP nominee for Florida legislature, marched w/ Nazis in Charlottesville, condoned slavery, & called for execution of gay people.
Does GOP even care? Is there a limit to MAGA's "never punch right" ethos?

This morning Rawson posted photo of himself w/ members of the University of Florida College Republicans. The group was reinstated by university only few days ago. It was disbanded in March...
after two members were photographed performing Nazi salutes. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/m…

Florida Republicans embraced Marshall Rawson — an extremist who marched with neo-Nazis, called for killing gay people and condoned slavery — to be a state lawmaker.
The GOP must condemn the hate he spreads, cut off support, and reject the bigotry his candidacy represents.
Big Exclusive here from our new reporter: Charlottesville marcher is on his way to the Florida state legislature. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/f…
