On January 13, 2017, Homeland Security announced grants made by the outgoing Homeland administration in an effort to focus its efforts on countering Radical Islam.
One of the grantee groups, Life After Hate was awarded $400,000 from the outgoing Obama administration.
The chairman of Life After Hate, Christian Picciolini, has published tweets for months calling for the Trump administration to be overthrown.
In light of his group receiving $400,000 this year from Homeland and the current Homeland administration reevaluating such grants, these treasonous tweets by Mr. Picciolini are significant.Why are our tax dollars going to this Trump-bashing organizer?
OK, America. Time to put an end to this nonsense once and for all. The Nazis fooled us once and this time we BECAME the Nazis. #Revolt

@jo_mendelson @SophiaBush @DavidCornDC I am all too well aware of Bannon’s white nationalist and fake news ties. This is pure DANGER.

Anyone else still clinging to the hope that some crazy twist of fate will still happen in the next 6 days to make the world right again?

I understand your “movement” more than most. We also called it a mvmnt 25 yrs ago except we waved swastikas & didn’t hide behind patriotism. https://t.co/X88CeN8nhi
