NEW: The Coming Collapse of Donald Trump’s January 6 Conspiracy, Part 8: Ali Alexander
sethabramson.substack.com
One of the most dangerous men in the U.S. remains at large, subpoenaed by DOJ and Congress but not yet held accountable for January 6—a day he did as much to shape as anyone in America.
Great job as usual Seth. One question though: With Trump's tenuous grasp of history and fact do we know FOR A FACT that he DIDN'T think that Ali Alexander WAS Sammy Davis, Jr.?
Read from my perspective as a mental health professional for over two decades, it’s an easy reach to see that AA is afflicted with a florid Bipolar I disorder, comorbid with Antisocial Personality Disorder.
As to his current freedom from detention, I may be showing great ignorance when I hazard a guess about why: DOJ has him under surveillance so that he might continue to produce evidence against other seditionists? In other words, a useful idiot too crazed to conceal his and others guilt. I say this knowing that there are many encrypted apps in this world.
As much as I worry that the DOJ is actually flubbing the prosecution of the massive Trump-led conspiracy, I still hold faith that its fist is still balling up and precisely gauging where and how it will strike, and against whom, so that victory is certain (even if not a one-punch knockout).
Even as Seth has repeatedly fretted over what’s (not) happening at DOJ, as a Proof reader from its inception, I cannot believe that his multi-year effort at uncovering blatant evidence has been squandered by prosecutors. I hold faith that they have more evidence than even the amazing Seth Abramson has uncovered.
And absolutely terrifying account. I felt nauseated reading it. Alexander claims the mantle of Messiah. And yet as you point out, his unhinged biblical references and performances calling for a depraved sub-reality that destroys US democracy are just one aspect of the ultimate role he has been preparing for his entire lifetime. He also is shrewd enough to disappear quickly, now is in hiding. He doesn't show up for the actual dirty work of a coup.
Also, they held meetings at Pence's home? So Pence and Mother were directly involved until the last moment when Pence decided to certify. What does that say about Pence? He should never be president, I don't care that he ultimately did the right thing.
Truly Astoundingly Frightening!! The mere fact that TFG emboldened SO Much Chaos and Violent Criminality is beyond my understanding... That he handpicked "all the best" racist and antisemitic criminals no longer surprises but the sheer magnitude and devotion to the destruction of Democracy is Soul shattering...
Wow, another jaw dropping read. It amazes me how occasionally comedic this attack on democracy can be and how like grifting televangelists the protagonists are. One question, Seth, do you think intelligence/law enforcement advised the Harrington to close? Thank you for all you do and stay safe.
Wow! Yes, Christofascism. Was unaware of Ali's espousing this. And to think, 10 years ago the idea of GOP Dominionism did not involve violence, just electing GOP Christians. Now, we have a Pennsylvania gov GOP candidate, Doug Mastriano, not just a Jan 6 insurrectionist, but also connected to an AR-15 gun cult, Rod of Iron Ministries, led by none other than heir to another cult, the Moonies, which for decades was assumed to be wacky but of little political influence. So Christofascism is coming to all levels of elections this Fall. And apparently the Christofascist GOP will continue to sacrifice children at their 2cd Amend altar, and who knows what group of citizens next? GOP needs to be voted out of every office, DC to dogcatcher, DEM only, no 3+ parties voting, for at least a generation, IOT de-power and make this monster no longer a part of America.
Wow, Seth, another amazing read. Ali's fusion of Christianity and fascism is frightening. So many of Trump's allies need mental health evaluations. I pray everyone responsible for 1/6 is held accountable very soon. I need to sleep better!
Awesome, painstakingly detailed work, Seth. Can you explain more about Alexander being on the run? If he was subpoenaed recently, wouldn’t the FBI have an idea of his whereabouts?
Thank you Seth for yet another thought provoking, excellent article. I agree with other people’s comments about AA’s seeming mental health issues. It definitely cannot be dismissed as the ramblings of a mad man though. I’m pretty sure he sees himself as ‘the second coming’ and is commanding his followers in a battle for the righteous to rule over the ‘unworthy’.
Let’s hope the January 6th Committee and Justice Department have got enough evidence to make charges stick on AA as well as the others involved, right to the top. Reading your articles, with the extremely well thought out presentation will hopefully light the flame of understanding in the minds of those it needs to.
Thank you again Seth. Sending best wishes to all from South Wales, UK
Wow! What an incredible read! AA may very well be the nuttiest of the nuts. Interesting that he chose orange as his preferred color. If orange is still the new black then I hope everything possible is done to ensure he wears it from head to toe for the rest of his life.
What is their endgame? Power and money? How much money and power can you have after death? People that are evil and corrupt, that go to extremes to enact these schemes, why? Thank you for your reporting. Really makes me question why all this crap happens and unfortunately, makes me more enraged.
Thank you SO much Seth for assembling all of this and putting it all in one place here for us. Thanks for all the hours of research, writing and editing. America surely owes you a debt of gratitude.
When I have more time I can come back and read it more thoroughly.
Question:
Can anybody here who has followed Alexander's timeline please tell me - what time did he reach the top of the Newsmax building? I've tried in my own limited way to find out, but somebody somewhere must know ...
Amazing piece of journalism! I sincerely hope the J6 committee can organize the telling of the story as well as you present it. Thank you for your dedication!
What an absolutely impressive piece of work. Must have been quite a pain to listen to and decipher all that giberish. Thank you again. I do hope they all get what they deserve before the Mid-Terms. But time is truely running out... We might still end up with a pseudo-christian fascist kleptocracy.
