Two new RW propaganda groups to keep

an eye on which caught my attention this weekend. Watched interviews with their founders, both of whom were staunch Trump supporters. At this point if you cannot denounce Trump's racism and support of Nazis, you are part of this anti-American movement which has a goal of harming millions.

so that when their material pops up, it can be addressed. FLAG does training and educational events, which I see as indoctrination session. Probably wouldn't hurt for people to attend and ask questions to give some facts and correct disinformation.
