After tech billionaire Peter Thiel and others donated to Jace Yarbrough’s campaign, Donald Trump endorsed him
A rookie congressional candidate in a nine-way Texas primary has received the imprimatur of wealthy hard-right donors including tech billionaire Peter Thiel, Claremont Institute board chair Thomas Klingenstein and Charles Haywood, who once expressed a desire to be a “warlord”, according to new Federal Election Commission filings showing early donations to his campaign.
In a recent candidate forum, Jace Yarbrough unapologetically staked out a series of extremist positions, saying that critics may call his approach to politics “bigoted and backward and oppressive and Nazi-ish”, but that he is “past trying to placate that in any way, shape or form”.
John Bellamy Foster, professor of sociology at the University of Oregon, said:“Jace Yarbrough is among the most militant figures in the Maga political movement in the United States, and a major recipient of Maga-billionaire donations in his run for a congressional seat in North Texas.”
Foster added: “If it can be said that there is a neofascist political movement in the United States, Yarbrough is certainly one of its chief would-be ‘lawgivers’.”
Trump endorsement?
Great. Bigly history of crash & burn.
On immigrants, he said: “We no longer share common values with people that we see in the grocery store or at our public schools, people that are at the local mall. Because we’re not from the same place, we don’t have the same formation.”
He also called for repealing the Hart-Celler Act, the 1965 law that ended race-based immigration quotas – a longtime white nationalist policy demand that has increasingly been voiced in organs of the Maga movement.
On Islam, Yarbrough said: “Our first introduction, for most of us, was 9/11. And then what happens? Then we see hordes of Islamic immigrants coming and attempting to set up Sharia law here in the United States, which is fundamentally incompatible with American citizenship.”
Fuck This Fascist
Hard right? Is there a sale on Grindr premium this week?
I wish they’d keep their yucky gross opinions and dicks the fuck away from the rest of us.
We need to give them their own taboo dating platform.
There’s this platform called “Guillotine”
I said something far milder than this on reddit and got banned twice.
I think they have their own dating platform. It should offer a premium tier that allows users to have M4M availability. The company makes more money, gay conservatives are only visible to other gay conservatives, and grindr has fewer of them. Win-win-win. I’d say F4F also, but let’s be real, they’re not interested in helping women, even if they could make money doing it.
Oh man, I’m gettin’ all polyphagic over here!
