Ali Alexander is a convicted felon who pleaded guilty to credit card abuse; he worked closely with the Trump political campaign, including Alex Jones and Roger Stone; bragged about organizing the “Stop the Steal” protest with three GOP congressmen; and he admitted to sexting underage boys.
So being part of an historic fraud that tried to overturn 225 years of democracy is NOT the worst thing Ali Alexander has done in his life.
Alexander (aka Ali Akbar), a conservative activist, helped organize the “Stop the Steal” protest on Jan. 6, 2021, in Washington, D.C., which culminated with the storming of the U.S. Capitol. Alexander claimed that in the days and weeks before the event that congressmen Andy Biggs, Paul Gosar, Mo Brooks and he “schemed up” the protest to put “maximum pressure on Congress while they were voting” on whether to certify the results of the Electoral College.
Alexander transformed himself from a convicted felon, who pled guilty to credit card abuse charges, to becoming a Republican Party activist, which, as it turned out, required no transformation or even a change of clothes.
The Daily Beast reported that Alexander became, “an idiosyncratic, trash-talking MAGA die-hard affiliated with figures like InfoWars conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, anti-Muslim Trump booster Laura Loomer, provocateur Jacob Wohl, and Trump ally Roger Stone.”
Donald Trump Jr. retweeted Alexander’s claim that Vice President-elect Kamala Harris was not an “American black.” Alexander ingratiated himself to Trump by wearing orange clothes, which, he said, signified that the president was on a mission from God. “God gave me the color orange in December 2019,” Alexander tweeted on Election Day 2020. “He told me ‘orange would be the color of 2020.’ I’ve come to learn it means GOD’S POWER.”
Alexander’s – and Trump’s — words become decidedly ominous as January 6 approached. “These degenerates in the deep state are going to give us what we want, or we are going to shut this country down,” Alexander told a crowd in Washington, D.C., the night before the insurrection.

After bragging that he had worked with Gosar, Biggs, and Brooks, he then denied any involvement with them when he testified before the January 6 committee that investigated the insurrection.
“There’s this conspiracy theory … that me and members of Congress worked to jeopardize the safety of their colleagues. Nothing could be further from the truth,” Alexander said. “So this evidence actually exonerates those members. This evidence actually exonerates me. And this evidence is actually going to exonerate President Donald J. Trump, and we’re really excited about that.”

Alexander is not just deeply disturbing by the normal means what is and is not disturbing.
He’s disturbing by any definition of what is and is not disturbing.
In March 2023, Milo Yiannopoulos, an avowed child pedophile and Trump supporter, chronicled Alexander’s history of allegedly propositioning teenage boys for sex and soliciting nude photos and video from them in exchange for political connections.
One of the boys was 15.
“When I was 15 I was naive and desperate,” the boy said, “I thought I had no choice but to cooperate with inappropriate and humiliating requests if I wanted to make it in politics. I figured that was just the nature of the game.”
