This article covers the appointment of Paul Ingrassia as a liaison to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) by the Trump administration. It discusses his background, previous controversial statements, and actions regarding the 2020 election.
Paul Ingrassia is a 29-year-old lawyer who gained attention for advocating "martial law" to keep Donald Trump in power after the 2020 election. He has previously held a position at the Justice Department.
During his time at the Justice Department, he aimed to hire individuals who would show "exceptional loyalty" to Trump. His past includes co-hosting a podcast called “Right on Point,” where he shared conspiracy theories and strong political views through social media.
After Trump's defeat by Joe Biden, Ingrassia's podcast Twitter account called for "secession" and advocated for "martial law." His posts included:
| Date | Content |
|---|---|
| December 2020 | "Time for @realDonaldTrump to declare martial law and secure his re-election!" |
| Prior to Biden's inauguration | Labeling Republicans as traitors and making extreme statements about Mike Pence. |
Ingrassia publicly supported Trump by sharing blog posts from his podcast that suggested using emergency powers to maintain presidential authority. He advocated for a military overseen re-vote in key states. His claims faced criticism as they conflicted with constitutional laws.
Ingrassia received recognition from Trump, who shared his articles. He has also declared himself as "President Trump’s favorite writer" on social media.
