Infowars Washington bureau chief Jerome Corsi spoke this afternoon before a crowd at the Heritage Foundation, a right-wing think tank that has poured staffers into positions in the Trump administration. Corsis appearance at Heritage, which has also had a hand in picking Trumps judicial nominees, is further evidence that whatever line may have once separated the conservative establishment from the far-right fringe has been steadily erased in the Trump era.
Despite the fact that Corsi is an off-the-wall conspiracy theorist, he is somehow still treated seriously by some who travel in mainstream conservative circles, allowing him to get columns in publications like USA Today and book interviews on C-SPAN and Newsmax. Today, he was hosted by one of the most powerful conservative organizations in the nation.
Corsi was introduced by Nancy Schulze, founder of Republican Congressional Wives Speakers, as well as a Women for Trump bus tour in North Carolina. She is in town to address the Tea for Trump event at the Trump International Hotel in Washington this weekend, where a member of the presidents family is expected to attend. Schulze introduced him as master truth-teller, Jerome Corsi.
Corsis truth-telling has included devoting countless hours to promoting a conspiracy theory known as The Storm, which centers around the assertion that President Trump personally ordered a high-level administration official with top-level security clearance to post riddles on 4chan and 8chan as a coded message to right-wing conspiracy theorists that Trump is secretly taking down a vast network of satanic pedophiles, including many Democrats. Corsis book Killing the Deep State, was waved by attendees at an April march of The Storm believers. During his research, Corsi has baselessly accused various people of being pedophiles, promised that video will be released showing elites butchering children, and challenged multiple federal officials to fight him behind the Department of Justice.

Come on, even Alex Jones admitted that "The Storm" and QAnon are complete bullshit. As if this last week hasn't made me sick enough, it gets worse!
