Guyz, TGP has the second article (in as many days) up tonight, wherein Joe Hoft cites his star contributor, Yaacov Apelbaum, as having identified Gelinas (QMap owner)in June.

Also repeating Aelbaum's contention (without providing any evidence), that Q has been infiltrated by "the Russians".

I previously (in early August) identified Apelbaum (according to Wikipedia at least) as "an atheist of Jewish background and identifies himself as queer.[2] Politically, he is an anarchist.[2][109]."

(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacob_Appelbaum)

Anybody have more information on the Hofts and Apelbaum?

There's an JA interview with Andy Müller-Maguhn, Jeremie Zimmermann, and Jacob Appelbaum of the Cypherpunk movement:

Also, Apelbaum's mother is pure Farm material (Sidwell School, Yale, London School of Economics) and an, "American journalist and historian. She has written extensively about Marxism–Leninism and the development of civil society in Central and Eastern Europe."

Also, interestingly: https://military.wikia.org/wiki/Anne_Applebaum

What's the significance of that?

Thanks - I'll check

I understand - that's why I was asking if anyone had done deepdives on these people (including the Hofts) who are influential with conservative readers.

I'm not confident in my deepdive abilities and wondered if anyone else has information that would be a basis for adequate evaluation. Apelbaum is obviously suspect given his family background (and his own), but the interview with Assange?

And the Hofts?
