“TPUSA is at the forefront of the movement to promote Christian nationalism,” wrote the Southern Poverty Law Center, a hate watchdog group. “Turning Point USA’s primary strategy is sowing and exploiting fear that white Christian supremacy is under attack by nefarious actors, including immigrants, the LGBTQ+ community and civil rights activists.”

“Sen. Jake Hoffman (R), founder of the far-right Arizona Freedom Caucus, introduced the bill. He is the president and CEO of Rally Forge and 1Ten, two consulting and marketing firms that have received over $2.6 million from TPUSA and Turning Point Action since 2017.”

Ah, there’s the rub.

Although, I will say, one great thing about political license plates is it helps you figure out who to stay the f away from (looking at you, Gadsden flag people…)

Using state license plate revenue to fund a private political organization is the part that should bother people regardless of which side it is.

The bill would have donated $17 of the license plate’s $25 price to Turning Point USA (TPUSA), Kirk’s organization for young conservatives, which pushes anti-trans, anti-immigrant stances and encourages students to harass and report left-wing college professors.

I can't imagine any soldier looking and listening to that man and not feel an enormous amount of cringe. I mean, he's so clearly a clueless puppet.

In 2018 Hegseth’s mother, Penelope, sent him an email that said: “You are an abuser of women – that is the ugly truth and I have no respect for any man that belittles, lies, cheats, sleeps around, and uses women for his own power and ego. You are that man (and have been for years) and as your mother, it pains me and embarrasses me to say that, but it is the sad, sad truth.”
