An author webpage for Lauren Chen is no longer on call on the web page for far-right activist Charlie Kirk's association, Transforming Aspect USA. Together with her other half, Chen co-founded a company, Maxim Media, that goes to the heart of the DOJ reprehension. YouTube removed several Maxim Media networks as well as one area media reporter said the channel has actually "finished" after the feds declared Chen and also her hubby intentionally used it to funnel numerous dollars coming from Russian representatives to conservative information designers who were paid for to drive reactionary and pro-Kremlin talking points.

One may merely picture what the team chats are actually seeming like in MAGA world nowadays.
