“Far-right activist Jack Posobiec traveled to Ukraine with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and was in the room when the secretary greeted Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy ahead of their private meeting,“ Politico reports.
“Earlier this week… Posobiec was invited to travel with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, sparking alarm from some in the defense world.
But the MAGA influencer says he instead opted to travel to Ukraine with Bessent, whose team reached out to Posobiec before the trip was made public. He was invited as media in his role as an influencer.”“Posobiec — whose record of far-right activism includes promoting conspiracy theories and associating with white nationalists — has long been a controversial figure, and would have been considered fringe during prior administrations. But now, he’s in position to bear witness to key moments on one of the world’s most consequential issues.”
