In Mother Jones, David Axelrod writes about Donald, Leon, and the German far-right:
“So where’s my German friends?” Donald Trump asked a fawning Mar-a-Lago crowd on Election Day, before flashing a grin and a thumbs up for a photo with a group of young men. The German friends in question: Fabrice Ambrosini, a former politician forced to resign after a video surfaced of him doing a Hitler salute; Leonard Jäger, a far-right influencer who has promoted the Reichsbürger movement, an extremist group behind a failed coup attempt in 2022; and Phillipp-Anders Rau, a candidate for Alternative für Deutschland (AfD), Germany’s far-right party.And here’s a Guardian article with more photographs and more background on the visitors.
Mary Miller, our representative in Congress (IL-15), was there too. Here she poses with Fabrice Ambrosini:

This photograph, credited only to “Instagram,” appeared at MeidasNews, where Miller is misidentified as “Carol.” No, that’s our Mary, the one who said that “Hitler was right on one thing.”
