…In May 2024, the group was bantering about a #Trump campaign staffer who’d been hired in Georgia & was working on outreach to minority voters, when #PaulIngrassia suggested she didn’t show enough deference to the Founding Fathers being white, acc/to the chat.

“Paul belongs in the Hitler Youth with Ubergruppenfuhrer Steve Bannon,” the first participant in the chat wrote, referring to the paramilitary rank in #Nazi Germany & the #Republican strategist.

POLITICO interviewed 2 people in the chat & granted them anonymity after they expressed concerns about personal & professional repercussions. One retained the messages & showed the text chain in its entirety to POLITICO, which independently verified that the number listed on the chain belongs to #PaulIngrassia. The person said he came forward because he wants “the government to be staffed with experienced people who are taken seriously.”

“MLK Jr. was the 1960s George Floyd and his ‘holiday’ should be ended and tossed into the seventh circle of hell where it belongs,” Ingrassia wrote in January 2024, according to the chat.

“Jesus Christ,” one participant responded.

#PaulIngrassia is scheduled to appear Thursday in a confirmation hearing with the #Senate Homeland Security & Governmental Affairs Committee, but his confirmation, which requires simple majority approval from the Senate, seems to be doomed.
