Ostensibly leftist journalist Max Blumenthal and previously-Nazi aligned “Frame Game” Mike Benz (who is now embedded in the Trump team) seem like an unexpected pairing…on the surface.

Very funny that these guys are still trying to do the right-wing anti-imperialism shtick after Trump threatened to invade Canada, Panama, and Palestine all within the first weeks of his presidency.
I always thought he had a screw loose. He lost me forever with the anti-vaxx shit during Covid, but now he's going into Matt Taibbi territory in offering up his services to support an explicitly right-wing agenda. USAID and NED deserve criticism, but not like this.
“Frame Game,” Mike Benz’s reported alter ego, was well-known among the Alt-Right on social media and as personality who hosted a podcast espousing white supremacist and antisemitic views until disappearing in 2018.
It's only an odd pairing because the left's critique of USAID )eg Noam Chomskey) as a tool of US "soft power" that trained torturers and death squads around the world, interfered in foreign elections, and funded terrorist groups to destabilize disfavored democratic regimes, ended decades ago.
Now, "the anti-establishment left" like occupy, black lives matter, the green revolution, and every other grass roots movement, has been co-opted by our corporate kleptocracy, and used as a tool of public manipulation.
