Trump Nominee’s Texts Reveal “Nazi Streak” and Racist Remarks
Leaked messages from a group chat including Republican operative Paul Ingrassia, Trump’s nominee for Special Counsel, have surfaced containing shockingly racist and hateful content. The messages, sent throughout 2024, include racial slurs, admissions of a “Nazi streak,” and disparaging remarks about Martin Luther King Jr. Ingrassia, who is also facing a sexual harassment allegation, had his testimony delayed earlier this year over potential ties to antisemitism and online extremism. The content of these messages, which were reported by Politico, provide a chilling look into Ingrassia’s views and are being revealed amid other scandals for young Republican figures.
