At this point I have little doubt that Turning Point News journalist Alexandra Hollenbeck is a Russian informant. Not a spy, but someone networking with alt-lite groups in the US and Canada and the Putin government. Despite her short-lived social media presence in North America, Hollenbeck is a mystery woman, of unknown citizenship, an International Studies student at University of South Florida* from 2015 to 2019, and someone who spends a considerable amount of time in Canada, England, and Russia, a place she calls home.

I'd be shocked if the Russian Federation wasn't trying to do the same thing.

They have been since the McCarthy era. They recruited a lot of parents of hippies who are now running our government. McCarthy was right.
