Meet Brandon Straka:

Brandon Straka became a conservative-media darling after posting a video about "walking away" from the left.
Why would a hairstylist and aspiring actor move to the middle-of-nowhere Nebraska? The link below describing his arrest calls Straka an "Omaha man".
My guess: He wanted to be closer to other Omaha men conspiring at high levels to overturn the 2020 elections:
Charles W. Herbster, who Seth Abramson (SP?) documented as being in the puppet's private residence in DC on Jan 5 2021. Herbster is running for governor of Nebraska in 2022. He was, at the time of the coup plotting, the national chairman of the agricultural and rural advisory committee.
Doug Peterson, Atty General of NE, who was putting out robocalls a day before the Capitol was stormed by domestic terrorists via the Republican Attorneys General Association. The robocalls urged supporters of Trump to march to the capitol.

Here's a link to the PAC/organization Straka founded. Wonder if their assets can be seized, as Straka is a domestic terrorist?

Here are some names from a Nebraska Nazi scandal in the 2018-2019 range. You can google them and see an earlier incidence of the shifting of blame for rightwing fu*kery away from high-level Nebraska officials onto an intern/low level staffer.
Aren't interns and staffers suppose to have supervision??
Anyway, some names from an earlier NE fascist scandal:
Bennett Bressman, GOP intern who later worked as a paid campaign staffer for NE Gov. Pete Ricketts. Bressman posted hateful online posts that advocated for violence against gays, blacks, journalists. He posted this shit in an online chat forum for the YOUTUBE show "America First" hosted by Nicholas Fuentes. Fuentes is a rightwing nut who has participated in white nationalist rallies.
Bressman pestered Jewish Professor Avi Kohen at Univ of NE, Lincoln.
Other names of wingnuts that I wrote down at the time of the fascist Nebraska mess making are:
Daniel Kleve
Kaitlyn Mullen, Turning Point USA.
A decent NE GOP senator warned that the GOP enables white supremacy. For speaking up, the GOP tells Senator McCollister to leave the party.
Jeff Fortenberry, US Congressman, called the cops because people left post-it notes on his door (Gasp! The horror!)
If you aren't in lock-step with the Nebraska GOP, you are a threat to the American project.
