IREHR research finds that given the size, reach, and budget, Kirk’s Turning Point USA has been a significant white nationalist radicalization on-ramp for young people.

IREHR warned about the GOP “Groyper Problem” back in 2019.
You say that hiring young people purely based on their ability to be obnoxious and provocative and racist enough to attract an online following might present some problems when the time comes to actually govern?!

With deep sadness, I have to share the news that IREHR’s founder, Leonard Zeskind, passed away Tues morning at his home in Kansas City.

He was a righteous intellectual/organizer, a role model and mentor, and an anti-fascist way before it was cool. He will be greatly missed.

Having monitored the Tea Party movement from it's inception, I can say unequivocally that today's #handsoff protests were significantly larger--both in the number of locations and size--compared to the Tea Party during the same period in Obama's 1st term.

Four years ago, the IREHR team diligently monitored the coup we'd been warning about for months. The horrific violence and the far-right assault on our democracy was forever burned into our souls. We will not forget. We will not be memory-holed. We will not stop.
