Lindsey Graham Is Being Boosted by a Tea Party Group That Has Always Hated Him

Posted: 28 Oct 2020 05:00 PM PDT

Lindsey Graham Is Being Boosted by a Tea Party Group That Has Always Hated HimIt's no secret that Sen. Lindsey Graham is in the fight of his political life in the closing days of his campaign to win reelection to the U.S. Senate."I'm getting overwhelmed," Graham begged on-air with Fox News' Sean Hannity last month, as his Democratic rival Jaime Harrison brought in a record-shattering $57 million in donations to unseat him. "Help me—they're killing me money-wise. Help me."But with ersatz ally President Donald Trump nowhere to be seen, a group that once despised Graham—and whose most prominent members have spent months propping up bizarre conspiracy theories, posting wildly racist content on social media, and undermining confidence public health guidelines in the midst of the pandemic—are coming to the rescue.The question is, does Graham want their help?"This is not a time for us to be squabbling over differences of opinion," Pressley Stutts, chair of the Greenville Tea Party, said at an event on Wednesday afternoon, before introducing nearly a dozen grassroots conservative leaders "to stand tall" with Graham."Sen. Graham is in the race of his life," said Stutts, introducing conservative activists who lambasted Harrison—or "Harris," as several of them called him—for being a "Marxist-Leninist" who would impose socialism on South Carolina.Sam Manley, a conservative podcaster, put the stakes of the race directly: "If you ever vote your way into socialism, you'll have to shoot your way out."This ringing endorsement for Graham's re-election—which included Michael LaPierre, who tried to primary Graham this year—amounts to a cease-fire between the Palmetto State's most well-known elected official and a coterie of some of his most dedicated trolls. During the Tea Party wave in 2010, Graham—once seen as one of the most mainstream members of the Republican Party—became one of the movement's most loathed "RINOs," or Republicans In Name Only. Leaders of the state's Tea Party chapters attempted to recruit then-Gov. Mark Sanford to primary Graham after he voted to confirm Justice Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court, and one speaker at a Greenville Tea Party rally that year made accused Graham of "trying to sell out your own countrymen" to avoid being outed.For his part, Graham once relished his battles with the state's most conservative activists, calling the inter-party skirmishes "more fun than any time I've been in politics," but with polls showing Graham in a statistical dead heat with Harrison, the senator is scrambling to resolve those well-documented problems with voters who have largely moved from the Tea Party to Team MAGA—even though the group's brand of politics couldn't be less in sync with Graham's own.Stutts, the group's chair, is a longtime critic of vaccinations, and has publicly discouraged people from wearing face masks during the coronavirus pandemic and spread the conspiracy theory that billionaire Bill Gates is working to reduce the human population.Why Hasn't Trump Come to Lindsey Graham's Rescue?Stutts has even claimed in an April interview that a potential vaccine for COVID-19 could possibly "contain a microchip" for the government to track its citizens."Even if it doesn't contain a microchip, I could foresee the day, because right now you have to show your ID or your passport and here in South Carolina, we have to get that real ID just to fly commercially," Stutts said on a conservative YouTube vlog at the time. "And I can see the point where they're going to say, okay, show me your vaccination papers next."At one Greenville Tea Party event in 2018, Stutts even hosted a talk with Jennifer Smith, who described herself as a "naturopath," who referenced the baseless theory that vaccines cause autism and said that she did not get her newborn son vaccinated for Hepatitus B because he was "not a promiscuous homosexual" or an IV drug user.Among the group's other featured speakers at recent events include John Guandolo, the leader of a Dallas-based anti-Muslim group who was forced last year to pay $600,000 in a civil lawsuit for assaulting a county sheriff after the man confronted him about passing around hate literature at a meeting of the National Sheriffs' Association.The group has also held protests against social distancing rules in South Carolina, which Graham has said are critical to stopping the spread of the virus, despite rising rates of infection in the state."Tired of putting up with an onerous and inept government?" the group posted on Facebook in September. "Join us September 15th and let your voice be heard, too. Our legislators need to know that we've had enough! Show up. Stand up. Speak up! It's your family that has been negatively affected… ThugArmy mount up!!"Greenville Tea Party members and business partners have made even more extreme claims. Dan Harvell, a taxpayer advocate who spoke at Wednesday's event and said that he was supporting Graham for the sake of "the traditional American values that we will have for our children," has posted memes claiming that Sen. Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee for vice president, slept her way to becoming San Francisco's district attorney, and has called former first lady Michelle Obama a "race-baiter."The Graham campaign did not respond to a request for comment about whether he disavowed the support of the Greenville Tea Party and its members, and neither did the group. But state Democrats called the dynamic of Graham playing along with a group he once despised the latest in a long arc of allowances the senator has made under Trump."This is yet another demonstration of the extreme lengths Sen. Graham is going to in order to save his flailing campaign," said Manuel Bonder, coordinated campaign spokesperson for the South Carolina Democratic Party. "Instead of scrambling to consolidate his support amongst fringe conspiracy theorists who know he is a hypocrite, Sen. Graham should focus on leading South Carolina through this crisis and delivering the relief working families and businesses desperately need."Read more at The Daily Beast.Get our top stories in your inbox every day.

U.S. OKs extradition of 2 nabbed in ex-Nissan boss' escapeThe U.S. State Department has agreed to turn over to Japan two American men accused of smuggling former Nissan Motor Co. Chairman Carlos Ghosn out of the country while he was awaiting trial, the men's lawyers said in court documents Thursday.

"This distinguished former member of the U.S. Army Special Forces and his son did not commit any crime and are being pursued by Japan in an effort to save face after the departure of Carlos Ghosn from their country," attorneys Ty Cobb, a former Trump White House lawyer, and Paul Kelly said in an emailed statement.

Neo-Nazis Who Targeted Podcaster and Terrorized Random Family Busted in MI: Cops

Posted: 29 Oct 2020 09:15 AM PDT

Neo-Nazis Who Targeted Podcaster and Terrorized Random Family Busted in MI: CopsTwo alleged members of the white supremacist group The Base were arrested Thursday morning in connection with a harassment campaign against a Michigan family.According to the state attorney general, the two men, Justen Watkins, 25, and Alfred Gorman, 35, mistakenly believed the family home belonged to a left-leaning podcast host. The duo allegedly took pictures outside the house dressed in Nazi gear late last year, and posted pictures to the internet with captions threatening Daniel Harper, the host of the anti-fascist podcast "I Don't Speak German." The men are charged with gang membership, unlawful posting of a message, and using computers to commit a crime after what was described as a joint operation between state police and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. It comes three weeks after the FBI's high-profile bust of members of an unrelated, Boogaloo-infused Michigan paramilitary group who are charged with plotting to kidnap Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.An affidavit by Michigan State Police Detective Sergeant Sherry Workman shows that the arrests arose from a "domestic terrorism investigation" conducted alongside the FBI. "The Base" is a rough English translation of "al-Qaeda," whether intentional or otherwise; the terror groups share no other links.Sutton Roach, an FBI spokesperson, confirmed that the bureau executed arrest warrants Thursday morning on Watkins and Gorman but declined further comment.Harper, the podcaster The Base attempted to target, told The Daily Beast the arrests were a long time coming."Given the flurry of federal activity around the Base and various related groups between mid-2019 and spring 2020, I assumed that there was either an ongoing investigation or that they had hit a dead end," he said.Harper, who tracks far-right groups like the Base, said that, as months passed, he guessed authorities might have been sidetracked by other fringe movements. "There was also the possibility that they had gotten distracted by the ongoing pandemic and/or the boogaloo boys," he said.It was unclear whether investigators were unable to find violations of federal law, as the two Base leaders were charged only with Michigan violations. The affidavit does not accuse Watkins or Gorman of outright acts of violence.According to the police affidavit, sometime after mistakenly stalking a Dexter, Mich. home believed to belong to antifascist podcaster Harper, Watkins boasted on the Base's Telegram channel that he was ready to commit lurid violence against what he described as a Jew-run America. He allegedly ran what the affidavit calls a "hate camp" in Bad Axe, Mich. where he instructed Base members in "tactical and firearms training" that the fascist organization turned into propaganda and recruitment videos."I will train with firearms, explosives, knives, Ryder trucks, and anything else I have to destroy this KIKE SYSTEM THAT IS GENOCIDING MY people," Watkins allegedly wrote in early 2020, in what the affidavit describes as a manifesto posted to Telegram. That manifesto allegedly ended: "To victory with PURE UNADULTERATED ARYANVIOLENCE! HAIL TERROGRAM!"The affidavit does not indicate how long the Michigan police and the FBI have been investigating the December 2019 incident. But the local sheriff's office has been aware of it since the residents of the house, Richard and Dawn Shea, reported the tactically-geared men on their porch taking pictures.The Base encourages terror tactics against its enemies, and often incorporates those people into its propaganda, as members allegedly did with Harper and the pictures of the house.The affidavit suggests a recent leadership change in The Base, which was founded by Rinaldo Nazarro, a former military contractor who was first identified by The Guardian early this year. Following his identification by the Guardian, Nazarro passed on leadership to Watkins, the latter man claimed, according to the arrest affidavit."In early 2020, several members of The Base were arrested across the United States for criminal activities relating to their involvement in The Base," it continues. "Following the highly public arrests, and 'doxxing' (publishing private identifying information about an individual on the internet) of The Base's founder and then leader, Watkins announced that the former leader had appointed Watkins as the new leader of The Base."The arrests alluded to in the affidavit include the bust of multiple Base members for allegedly planning a mass shooting at a pro-gun rally in Richmond, Virginia, this year, and for allegedly plotting an attack on an anti-fascist couple in Georgia. Three of the arrested members, including one who was on the lam from Canada, allegedly hoped the attack on the gun rally would be part of a plot to overthrow the government and establish a white ethnostate, according to an arrest affidavit in that case.FBI Director Christopher Wray testified last month that white supremacist terrorism comprised the "biggest chunk" of domestic terrorism currently menacing America. He also revealed that the FBI had more than 1,000 domestic-terrorism investigations open; 107 people were arrested as the result of those investigations in 2019.But the bureau has also drawn substantial criticism for opacity surrounding its domestic counterterrorism efforts, particularly while the Trump administration misleadingly portrays an equal or greater terror threat from antifascist and Black-liberation activists. The Daily Beast reported on Monday that the bureau is sitting on a legally-required public accounting of white-supremacist and other domestic terrorism, as well as government efforts to combat it.Read more at The Daily Beast.Get our top stories in your inbox every day.
