Outraged by the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, a wilderness survival trainer spent years undercover climbing the ranks of right-wing militias. He didn’t tell police or the FBI. He didn’t tell family or friends. The one person he told was a ProPublica reporter.
The sheer amount of dedication it takes to keep up a ruse for that long is astonishing. He made it all the way to leadership of Utah, that’s ridiculous!
And he probably could’ve gone even further since I don’t think it was necessary for him to bail when he did. He only sent an email warning a local politician about a death threat. It’s the US, I figure that’s a routine thing. The woman calling for the assassination could reasonably have been blamed for the leak instead since she’s a civilian who probably doesn’t practice good security. Idk it just doesn’t seem as incriminating to me as it did to him.
