Eric Parker watched online as the Bundy ranch in Southern Nevada was being taken over by federal agents with the Bureau of Land Management. He joined in the protest and despite breaking no laws, found himself facing criminal prosecution with the prospect of spending decades of his life in prison.
In his first trial there was a hung jury. He ended up being tried twice for crimes he didn’t commit, and after the second trial he accepted a misdemeanor plea deal to get it behind him.
After that painful ordeal, he got involved with the Three Percenters and eventually with Idaho state politics.
He then witnessed deliberate infiltration by anti-Semitic racist Nick Fuentes’ America First PAC into Joe Kent’s U.S. House campaign and Janice McGeachin’s Idaho gubernatorial campaign, both in 2022. The purpose of the infiltration was to defame the campaigns by giving members of the press the impression that members of the candidate’s inner circle were openly racist and anti-Semitic.
In this podcast, Eric said that Fuentes, who is openly anti-Semitic and racist, started the America First PAC with a $250,000 bitcoin donation from someone in France who committed suicide the day after making the donation.
Fuentes makes a habit of infiltrating organizations and campaigns. He convinced Kanye West to let him tag along on a private lunch with President Trump at Mar-a-Lago, briefly infiltrating the Trump orbit.
This form of infiltration is similar to the pattern of infiltration perpetrated by the Chinese Communist Party as described by CCP dissident and Oregon RNC Committeeman Solomon Yue in my first interview with him.
Fuentes is most famous for his role in spewing hateful rhetoric in Charlottesville, North Carolina, becoming the cause of character assassination against Trump over the “very fine people” hoax that resulted from Fuentes’ and other white nationalists’ involvement in the Charlottesville rally.
The following video compilation provides a clear introduction of anti-Semitic and racist statements from Fuentes and his cohort in the America First PAC, Vincent James Foxx. (Viewer discretion advised)
Particularly striking in the above video are statements by both Fuentes and Foxx that demonstrate their desire to destroy the Republican Party. “We are the Christian American Nationalist movement… our mission is to f__king destroy the barstool conservatives… our job is to take a bar stool and f—king break their head in with it in the name of God… our job is to take a bar stool and throw it through the window of inclusive populism. Our job is to take a bar stool and smash down the gates of the Republican Party!”
Fuentes here makes a shockingly clear statement of the intent behind the nationwide operation to infiltrate the conservative grassroots with the intent of destroying the GOP.
Foxx moved from California to Idaho because, he explains in the above clip from his podcast, there are so many white people in Idaho. Once there, he got connected with Dave Reilly, who worked an official paid stint for Brent Regan’s Idaho Freedom Foundation (IFF), a longstanding conservative think tank that Regan has infiltrated and used to take over and radicalize the GOP.
As I reported in March, Brent Regan’s infiltration of IFF has been instrumental in the GOP Insurgents’ takeover of IDGOP. Regan has established clear ties with Dave Reilly and Vincent James Foxx, both of whom are connected to Fuentes’ America First PAC.
Reilly deleted about 5000 tweets from between 2019-2021. They were preserved here. Below are some highlights.
And in this video, Foxx admits “we are the Christian Taliban” and declares that women should have no rights.
Both Reilly and Foxx are clearly toxic misogynists, racists and anti-Semites, and Regan’s acceptance and encouragement of them appears to be a key part of this nationwide operation that I have been exposing, that is, to drive the Republican party so far to the right that it becomes an unviable alternative to the Marxist Democrats.
In deep-red Idaho, Regan’s efforts to alienate, censure and remove from the party via Article XX show trials all the level-headed and center-right coincides with an effort by the left to institute ranked-choice voting. Independents and moderate Republicans seem to be seeing ranked-choice voting as a potential solution to a state GOP that embraces Christian Nationalism and even alleged neo-nazis like Foxx and Reilly.
We saw how ranked choice voting worked in deep-red Alaska, where the 2nd choice Democrat somehow beat Sarah Palin to become a U.S. Rep. This makes me wonder if Brent Regan isn’t just operating an experiment on how to sow chaos and try to make a deep red state blue.
Something to look out for in 2024
Foxx and Fuentes made taking down Joe Kent’s campaign a top priority. This piece describes how they sent operatives to a Kent town hall and caused it to descend into chaos while creating headlines linking Kent with white nationalism.
Fuentes’ organization is called the America First PAC. His followers, who call themselves Groypers, use “America First” in the exact same way as the GOP Insurgents do in every other state. They use it as a nebulously defined label to differentiate themselves from the “RINOs,” which they use as a slur to cover anyone they are unable to control - especially when those “RINOs” are the most effective and productive within the party.
It is ultimately not an ideological battle but one of manipulation, control and allegiance.
While not all GOP Insurgent organizations are overtly racist and white nationalist, nearly all claim to be Christian Nationalist, a similar form of tyrannical ethno-nationalism that declares that only Christians should be able to participate in government.
The white nationalist and Christian Nationalist movements are completely toxic to any general election. They are propagated deliberately for that purpose and any party and campaign that wants to win in the general should identify and distance themselves from the insurgents who cover themselves in the mantel of any form of ethno-nationalism - which is much different than nationalism.
If we continue to tolerate any form of ethno-nationalism within the GOP, Fuentes’ victory dance over Joe Kent in this video could apply to too many Republicans come November (viewer discretion advised). Note the clip of Tucker Carlson at the end of the video.
A Christian argument against Christian Nationalism
Many Christians have adopted this deceptive and faulty logic: “I am a Christian and I am a nationalist. Therefore, I am a Christian Nationalist.” This demonstrates the danger of failing to consider the meanings of words and terms.
Any form of ethno-nationalism is much different than the “nationalism” espoused by Trump, which simply offers a counter to globalism, meaning the interests of one’s own nation should take precedence over the interests of other nations. Ethno-nationalism states that a nation is defined by a single ethnicity or religion and that the power of government should be used to establish and enforce that ethnicity or religion as the dominant or official group of people in the country.
Christian Nationalism advocates for a Christian takeover of government and the forceful mandate of Christian morality on all citizens - by the force of government. I have argued repeatedly that this is NOT a Christian movement or ideology. Christian Nationalism simply trades one form of tyranny for another and is a violation of Biblical Christianity and of the U.S. Constitution.
Jesus Himself established the secular state when He wrote, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s and unto God what is God’s.” Most Biblical scholars interpret that passage as establishing, for the first time in history, a state that is in fact separate from the Church.
The Gospel of Christ is itself a Gospel of freedom. God wants our love and obedience not by force but as a free-will offering. We are all free to sin or free to turn away from our sin and towards Christ.
The apostle Paul argues throughout his letter to the Romans that obeying the Bible for the purpose of obedience is dead religion. The obedience that glorifies God is a free will offering that His people give in self-sacrifice out of gratitude for the salvation they have been freely given through Christ’s death on the cross.
This is, in fact, the key distinction between Christianity and Islam. Christianity advocates freedom from force. Islam despises freedom and advocates submission by force. Islam is a political and religious organization. Christianity is a spiritual path through Christ to the Father.
Our founding fathers recognized that we need a government that offers us the same freedom God offers us. This means every American citizen - regardless of religious or ethnic background - has the right to participate in our government and to speak, listen, and believe whatever they believe is true.
The First Amendment is therefore, arguably, the most Christian of all political documents in human history. It is only when we have the freedom to pursue God and objective truth by speaking and thinking as we each as individuals believe is right (even when we’re wrong) can we experience both the crushing consequences of being wrong and the glorious redemption of conviction in truth.
