Last week, Politico dropped a bombshell — 2,900 pages of Telegram chats from a group calling itself Restore YR (“Restore Young Republicans”). Inside were hundreds of messages from political operatives and rising figures on the right — praising Hitler, making gas chamber jokes, and weaving overt white nationalist ideology into GOP youth spaces.
But what most people missed is how deep this network runs — and how it’s been strategically infiltrating Republican circles for years.
In this new episode of The Bigger Truth Show, I sit down with Amanda Moore, the undercover journalist who embedded herself inside this extremist movement. Amanda has spent years investigating figures like Shane Trejo, Gavin Wax, Alec Beaton, and their networks — names now emerging again in the wake of Politico’s leak.
Together, we expose:
How Nazi-adjacent ideology took root inside the Young Republicans and Turning Point USA ecosystems.
The hidden ties linking these activists to Roger Stone, Nick Fuentes, and Michael Flynn’s digital network.
The Michigan connection — and why our state has become central to this national story.
The cult-like tactics being used to radicalize young conservatives from within.
Why this infiltration is not about patriotism, but about destroying the Republican Party from the inside.
“We’ve been desensitized to the word ‘racist,’” I said in the show. “And that’s allowed real racists — people who actually praise Hitler — to move into positions of influence.”
Amanda shares never-before-discussed details about her undercover work, her direct interactions with Trejo and Beaton, and how the same networks that fueled Unite the Right have quietly rebranded themselves for 2024 and beyond.
This is one of the most important conversations I’ve had yet — connecting the dots between political extremism, narrative warfare, and deliberate infiltration of conservative movements by anti-American forces.
Why this matters
What Amanda uncovered — and what I’ve been documenting from another angle — points to a coordinated, well-funded effort to fracture the right and weaponize hate. This is the same playbook used by foreign intelligence operations and psychological warfare units — divide, radicalize, and destroy from within.
If we don’t call it out, we lose not only a party — but the moral foundation of our movement.
