1)Ted Cruz
2)Ali Alexander
3)CJ Pearson.
The first two you are aware of but let me give you a brief overview to give some context.
But what you might not have known is that the person standing next to Ali Alexander on stage with Sidney Powell & Lin Wood is a young republican by the name of:
CJ Pearson
But we'll get back to him soon.
Cruz was one of the leading & most influential figures responsible for the Jan 6th insurrection.
I won’t go too deep into Cruz as we generally know his story. But @donwinslow does a good job of representing his role.
Alexander actually got his beginnings in 2007-2008 during the Tea Party movement to which he claims he co-founded.
In 2008 he worked on John McCain’s presidential campaign
- In the late 2000s to early 2010s he was a massive conservative blogger
- He was bankrolled by Robert Mercer.
-Around 2016 he changed his name to Ali Alexander and supported Trump.
In fact, here's a video of him and Andrew Breitnbreit from 2012.
Try and say you don't know Ali Alexander now Ted.
CJ Pearson started as a 12-year-old conservative activist on YouTube critical of Obama.
Now I don’t think what a kid does or believes in when they’re 12 should define them but I need to set the scene for what's to come.
Try to deny knowing CJ Pearson, Ted.
“He’s a racist and a bigot; he wants to build a wall, he’s a Neanderthal.” - CJ Pearson
(he briefly supported Bernie sanders – once again, I don’t fault a kid for political affiliations)

Good afternoon, followers of frivolous election litigation. There's a last-minute entry in the competition for dumbest pre-inauguration lawsuit - a totally loony effort to apparently leave the entire USA without a government.
We'll start with the complaint in a minute.
But first, I want to give you a quick explanation for why I'm going to keep talking about these cases even after the inauguration.
They're part of an ongoing effort - one that's not well-coordinated but is widespread - to discredit our fundamental system of government.
It's a direct descendent, in more ways than one, of birtherism. And here's the thing about birtherism. It might have been a joke to a lot of people, but it was extremely pernicious. It obviously validated the racist "not good enough to be President" crowd. But that wasn't all.
Don't get me wrong, that was bad enough. Validating racism helped put the kind of shitbird who would tweet this from an official government account into power. But it didn't stop
(Also, if you agree with Pompeo about multiculturalism - the legendary melting pot - not being what this country is all about, you need to stop following me now. And maybe go somewhere and think about your life choices and what made you such a tool.)

Woke-ism, multiculturalism, all the -isms \u2014 they're not who America is. They distort our glorious founding and what this country is all about. Our enemies stoke these divisions because they know they make us weaker. pic.twitter.com/Mu97xCgxfS

Once upon a time there was a Raja named Uttānapāda born of Svayambhuva Manu,1st man on earth.He had 2 beautiful wives - Suniti & Suruchi & two sons were born of them Dhruva & Uttama respectively.
#talesofkrishna https://t.co/E85MTPkF9W
Now Suniti was the daughter of a tribal chief while Suruchi was the daughter of a rich king. Hence Suruchi was always favored the most by Raja while Suniti was ignored. But while Suniti was gentle & kind hearted by nature Suruchi was venomous inside.
#KrishnaLeela
The story is of a time when ideally the eldest son of the king becomes the heir to the throne. Hence the sinhasan of the Raja belonged to Dhruva.This is why Suruchi who was the 2nd wife nourished poison in her heart for Dhruva as she knew her son will never get the throne.
One day when Dhruva was just 5 years old he went on to sit on his father's lap. Suruchi, the jealous queen, got enraged and shoved him away from Raja as she never wanted Raja to shower Dhruva with his fatherly affection.
Dhruva protested questioning his step mother "why can't i sit on my own father's lap?" A furious Suruchi berated him saying "only God can allow him that privilege. Go ask him"
