## Resource

In this episode of El Niño Speaks, José Niño is joined by veteran and activist Nathan Damigo. Damigo peels back the curtain on his journey — from his experiences in the Iraq war to the harsh lessons learned during the legal battles following Charlottesville. We discuss the myth of the “infiltrator” strategy, why the Republican Party’s structure is fundamentally designed to crush genuine nationalism, and why the “good Jew” narrative is a trap that derails honest advocacy Follow Nathan Damigo’s work below: Substack: Telegram: https://t.me/NathanDamigo# NEXT: If you liked the show, feel free to continue supporting my work.
