Media Matters reports:
Republican Senate candidate Lauren Witzke is continuing her outreach to white nationalists by promoting her campaign in a video interview with the white nationalist site VDare. The Delaware Republican Party has continued backing Witzke despite her appeals to far-right extremists. Witzke is running for the Senate in Delaware against Democratic Sen. Chris Coons.
As Media Matters and others have documented, Witzke has frequently interacted with white nationalists and anti-Semites during her campaign. She has also praised the violent neo-fascist Proud Boys for helping her campaign. Additionally, Witzke is a supporter of QAnon, the violence-linked conspiracy theory that started on message boards and has been labeled a potential domestic terror threat by the FBI.
In August, YouTube belatedly and permanently banned VDare from its platform for violating its poorly enforced policy against “hate speech.” Witzke’s VDare interview was posted under the account “Immigration Patriot!”
Read the full article. As previously reported, Witzke has an arrest record for meth and heroin possession and has claimed that she used to smuggle drugs for Mexican cartels. VDare takes their name from Virginia Dare, who is believed to have been the first white child born in what would become the United States.
In order to preserve America, we must first preserve American families, our values, and our culture.
Thank you, @peterbrimelow and @vdare for having me on to discuss America’s desperate need for an immigration moratorium. #AmericaFirst ??https://t.co/ZnsIJqeLs9

I denounce all forms of hate.
That’s why I’m not a member of the Democrat Party.
