Oh God, ANOTHER Racist GOP Group Chat Leaked

Host: Tim Miller
Guest: Will Sommer (author, False Flag newsletter)

Episode Overview

In this dynamic episode, Tim Miller and Will Sommer delve into the wild week of MAGA infighting, bizarre scandals, and fresh controversies roiling the right-wing media ecosystem. The main theme revolves around a newly leaked racist Young Republican group chat, but the conversation covers a smorgasbord of right-wing drama: from a Tucker Carlson vs. Laura Loomer feud, to Candace Owens’ spiraling conspiracy theories, hyper-masculine nicotine pouches, grifting gold IRAs, and the banishment of a GOP gubernatorial candidate from Waffle House.

Miller and Sommer maintain their signature mix of biting wit and incredulity, unpacking the deeper implications and absurdities found at the intersection of young conservatism, online grifters, and the burgeoning MAGA media world.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Tucker Carlson vs. Laura Loomer Feud and the ALP Nicotine Heist

[00:45 – 04:06]

• Tucker Carlson’s New Business: Carlson launches a nicotine pouch company called “ALP,” marketed as a macho alternative to Zyn.
  • Sommer quips: “This really is kind of like a fast and furious truck hijacking situation.” (01:57)
• The Drifter Truck Heist: A truck carrying 400,000 tins of Carlson’s new “Drifter” pouches is stolen in California—“Supposedly it was worth millions of dollars.” (04:06)
• Laura Loomer’s Schadenfreude: Loomer mocks Carlson over the theft (“Tucker, Tucker Carlson”), amid their spiraling feud over Israel.
• Deeper Feud: The battle symbolizes the growing rift between MAGA’s anti-semitism-curious, paleocon wing (Carlson) and the hardcore, pro-Israel Trump loyalists (Loomer).
  • “This is pretty much just a proxy fight between, like, the MAGA anti-Semitism curious wing and the MAGA pro-Israel wing.” — Tim Miller (02:57)
• Loomer’s Regulatory Attacks: She tries to sabotage ALP’s FDA approval with complaints about missing nicotine warnings in social media ads and accuses ALP of mocking her gender and image for marketing purposes.
  • “They’ll say discount code Larry Loomer, which the implication is that Laura is transgender.” — Will Sommer (05:22)

2. The Right’s Gold Grift and Tucker’s “Honest” Gold IRA

[06:48 – 08:26]

• Grifter Economics: A staple of the right-wing media business—selling gold IRAs to retirees at massive markups.
• Tucker’s Outsider Pose: Carlson claims he turned down a $20 million endorsement offer and now calls out others, including Loomer, for misleading their audience.
  • “He says it’s the Honest Gold Company... now he’s taking aim at people like Laura and essentially saying... they’re tricking their audience into buying gold that is really way too expensive.” — Will Sommer (07:51)
• Cynicism of Conservative Commerce: Tim remarks on the circular firing squad of grifters exposing each other for fraud, all while selling dubious products.

3. Tucker Carlson’s Evolving Public Brand

[08:26 – 09:35]

• New Storefront Shtick: Tucker leans into self-aware, meme-laden merchandise with slogans like “Nation building is gay,” “Neocons are gay (for Israel),” and “Psyop critic.”
  • “What is that? He’s like, what is that? Seriously?” — Tim Miller (08:53)
  • Will finds dark amusement: “I kind of like the psyop one. It’s like, what, Psyop disrespect or something?” (09:25)
• Shift in Persona: They joke that Carlson is fashioning himself into an Alex Jones-type archetype, weaponizing trollish irony and culture war branding.

4. The Leaked “Gooning in Agartha” Young Republican Group Chat

[10:05 – 14:40]

• Explanation of “Gooning” and “Agartha”: The group chat’s name references an extreme masturbation subculture combined with Nazi-adjacent esoterica.
  • Will: “Gooning is sort of a very intense form of masturbation... Agartha is a sort of mystical imagination of, like, a Hitlerian fantasy world where, like, everyone’s white.” (10:36–10:57)
  • “So it’s kind of like, you know, what was it? You have all the virgins, you know, for the radical Islamists... This is kind of like that, but for the white nationalists.” — Tim Miller (11:24)
• Irony and Racism: Despite the Nazi-fantasy branding, the group is composed mainly of Latino young Republicans.
  • “The irony here is I don’t think there were any white nationalists in this chat.” — Will Sommer (11:39)
• Content of Leak: Endless racist posts (N-word, violence, anti-Jewish talk), creating shockwaves even among black Republican Trump supporters.
  • “Insanely racist. I mean, tons of N word. Tons of like, just really like, talk about violence.” — Will Sommer (12:31)
  • “If I was a black parent... I’m not thrilled to see people talking about, like, murdering black children.” — Paraphrasing Black Hannity, a black right-wing activist (13:17)
• Larger Implication: Even “rising stars” in the Florida GOP are implicated in the endemic bigotry, and the base is not as white as the rhetoric often suggests.

5. James Fishback: Banished from Waffle House

[14:40 – 15:43]

• Fishback’s Campaign Tactics: Struggling Florida GOP gubernatorial candidate, young favorite, holds events in Starbucks and Waffle House—only to be banned from both.
  • “He claims he’s been criminally trespassed from every Waffle House.... if you come back here it’s going to be a crime.” — Will Sommer (14:59)
• Symbol of Conservative Counterculture: Highlights the disruption of traditional “third spaces” and the oddball subcultures of new right-wing activism.

6. Candace Owens’ Deep State/Mossad Conspiracy Theories

[15:43 – 23:42]

• Candace's Stringboard: Owens, in a series of documentaries, alleges a vast international conspiracy orchestrated by Mossad and the French Foreign Legion to murder Charlie Kirk, with his wife Erica supposedly complicit.
  • “Erica Kirk and the Mossad and the French legionnaires collaborated together to murder Charlie as part of a decades long plot of the deep state and foreign deep states, for that matter.” — Tim Miller (15:52)
• Absurd Evidence: Investigated “suspicious” details—like errors on a birth certificate, costumes, or travel teams’ basketball routes—as grains of proof.
  • “So it’s possible that this basketball travel team was a front story for foreign adventurism.” — Tim Miller (21:14)
• Grain of Sarcasm: The hosts mock the Rube Goldberg-ness of the plot.
  • “It is kind of interesting that the plan here would have been to…find a woman when she was a young child in a bee costume, recruit her, mold her over decades, have her marry a person…then wait for just the right moment to have her give a tip off to a Mormon boy... It’s a little complex, you know.” — Tim Miller (22:18)
• Underlying Motive: Candace seizes on posthumous revelations that Kirk observed Shabbat and had pro-Jewish affiliations, which infuriates her and helps fuel her conspiracies.
  • “This obviously was kind of shocking to the extremely anti Semitic Candace Owens…” — Will Sommer (18:17)
• Sectarian Fallout: Even Kirk’s death has created sectarian divides among right wing types: “Charlie Kirk’s legacy is now spinning off into kind of like a sectarian fight between the Shia and the Sunni TPUSA followers…” — Tim Miller (18:59)

7. Final Notes and Will Sommer’s Ongoing Scoops

[24:01 – 24:45]

• Tim encourages listeners to follow Will’s work: “Subscribe to the False Flag newsletter... Let us know if you’re seeing anything out there... Will Sommer is interested in your tips.”
• Will’s investigative philosophy: “I just got duped by someone who said he had a Candace thing for me... You know, I got to look like a fool sometimes to get the scoop, so I’m happy to do it.” (24:27)
