In 2017, per CNN, Fleitz complained that CSP had only been placed on the SPLC’s list of hate groups “due to our principled stand against the Global Jihad Movement.”
Translation: It’s a hate group.

Confusing headline
I thought that, as chief of staff of the Bolton’s National Security Council, he was already working for an anti-Muslim hate group.

Our duty is to never, ever let fascism gain a foothold in America. Ever.
Our duty is to stop it, by any means necessary.

How about because he has now had 6 months exposure to security council info, White House policy-making, and internal strategy and communications plans. And can be way more effective as a hate group leader after this rotation on the White House team.

It works for whoever carries water for the tiny set of plutocrats who fund the wingnut economy and its “Distinguished Service” welfare system.

Fleitz, a longtime Bolton associate, joined the Trump administration in May after working for five years at the Center for Security Policy, an Islamaphobic group run by Frank Gaffney. The Southern Poverty Law Center considers CSP a “hate group.” Fleitz joined Gaffney and others from CSP in March 2016 when they went to work on Sen. Ted Cruz’s (R-TX) presidential campaign.
The old, pre-Trump GOP avoided these sorts of associations because they believed the vast majority of voters were decent people and associating with racists would be the kiss of death for their electoral hopes. It turns out that a majority of their base actually enthusiastically supports racism. Who knew?

Sometimes, the simplest explanation is the best.
What in his background could possibly screw up a federal background investigation? It would be funny if Jarad helped him fill out his forms.
