Rubio-Linked Outfit Creates LGBTQ Conspiracy Videos

The Guardian reports:

A Marco Rubio-linked thinktank stoking fears about Haitian migrants in Pennsylvania has also produced a sequence of videos in recent months that promote conspiracy theories about LGBTQ+ people, human rights organizations and even the corporate consultancy McKinsey & Company. The editor hired to produce those videos also produces for the media organization founded by Mike Lindell. They are mostly voiced by the rightwing political operative Nate Hochman.

In mid-2022 Hochman lost a fellowship after a conservative website revealed that he had recorded a friendly conversation with Nick Fuentes. In July 2023 Hochman was fired from Ron DeSantis’s abortive presidential campaign over a video he reportedly produced that featured neo-Nazi imagery. A Real Clear Politics report on the launch said the thinktank had “Rubio’s blessing”, and would prioritize “the work of codifying and institutionalizing the ideas Rubio helped pioneer”.

Read the full article. In one video, Hochman claims Pride Month is part of conspiracy to replace Thanksgiving with a “day of mourning for indigenous people.” Hit the link.
