4) Mellissa Carone -- Rudy Giuliani's star witness in his election fraud lawsuit last December. She is currently running for office in Michigan.

5) Scott Presler -- a homosexual conservative influencer, often spotted leading rallies in the run up to Trump's election. Presler spoke at CPAC 2020.

LA Times, 2015:
Selling Stardom: Aspiring actors are reeled in by talent listing firms
BY DANIEL MILLER STAFF WRITER DEC. 10, 2015 3 AM PT

Rita Reimers, 54, runs a cat-sitting service in Charlotte, N.C. But what she really wants to do is act. Breaking into show business seemed nearly impossible, until she saw an online pitch for Explore Talent. The company’s website promises access to casting calls and audition opportunities, billing itself as the “world’s largest talent resource.” Reimers said she signed up for the service about a decade ago, but canceled her membership when the acting gigs didn’t materialize.

Then last year, she said she got a call from an Explore representative, who said he could land her an audition for a Tom Cruise film — if she renewed her membership. She paid $120 to get the company’s services for six months, knowing that in Hollywood, nothing happens without a talent agent. And that’s what she thought she was getting. “Who else would have parts in movies for people?” Reimers said. “They would call and say, ‘Oh, you’re right for this.’ That sounds like a talent agency.”

In fact, Reimers had contacted a talent listing service. These firms operate in a cut-rate corner of Hollywood — one in which outsized aspirations and naiveté collide with companies touting a chance at a career in front of the camera. Listing services provide databases of audition and employment opportunities. They also offer to promote their clients on a Web page with a photograph, resume, reel and portfolio. There’s one problem: Hardly anyone who is anyone in Hollywood takes these services seriously. Most working actors and their agents find out about auditions and casting calls through their own contacts or long-established casting services. “They have convinced hundreds of thousands of wannabe actors that they are some kind of industry standard,” said Billy DaMota, a longtime casting director who said he’s never consulted a listing service in his 30 years in the business. “Not one reputable casting director I know uses those places to find talent.”

Explore’s owner, Ami Shafrir, said his Las Vegas-based company’s research department works with casting directors to get information about job opportunities. He gave The Times the names of two professionals, but neither returned repeated phone calls and/or emails seeking comment. Reimers, the aspiring actress, filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau over the company’s “sales pitch.” In response, Explore disputed Reimers’ account but apologized for “any confusion” over her membership and said it refunded her $120.

Umm...not to be a wet blanket, but National Justice is a far right neo-nazi white supremacist website of the National Justice Party, spun off from The Right Stuff blog. (((The assholes who started the triple parentheses around (((Jewish))) names thing? Remember them?)))

Eric Striker, the author of the garbage on this sty is an aka for a nazi named Joseph Jordan, one of their Obersturmbannführers.

Maybe not the content we should be amplifying.

Yeah. I checked them out after I posted but fell asleep - it’s siesta Saturday. Not exactly a reliable source. But fun.

And I don’t think that’s really Boebert in the leopard bra. :?

I don't find it fun at all, and I don't think antisemitic trash like that has any business being celebrated & promoted on the Fogbow.

The text of the article written by a neo nazi doesn't belong here any more than a link to the article does.

It goes out of its way to describe a jewish man as a pornographer & insinuate criminality. Maybe he is, maybe he isn't, I don't know.

What I do know is that you can post the photos, etc. From the talent agency, but an article written by a nazi to defame his enemies has no business here.

I've seen Boebert's, Owens', Carrone's photos elsewhere; we don't need to glorify a nazi just because he's fucking with people we don't like.

In this case, the enemy of my enemy is a fucking nazi and thus, still, my enemy.

I'd appreciate it if you'd remove all of "Eric Striker's" filth from this site.

It's fine for the mods to pull the topic down, there was no intent to be disrespectful.

Here ya go, a long thread about many out of work actors in LA being the faces behind the daily anti-vax/anti-mask protests, the above mentioned seedy "talent" agency, and Russian attempts to influence covid19 misinformation.
Edit: Oh yeah, America's Frontline Doctors make an appearance too, also.

Chad Loder’s account is worth a follow. :shock: Wow, does he bring it.

For instance, I didn’t know that there had been a honeypot plot at State to blackmail anti-Trumpers into going along. (Betsy’s son)

Is "Big Perverts" intended to mean Hollywood?

Because I'm thinking there's a big pervert (or more) (allegedly) in Congress that Republicans are "curiosity" quiet about.
