An explosive, first-person account of the alt-right from acclaimed
political journalist Tina Nguyen who got her start in conservative
media and is now using that access to blow the top off the fringe
right's recruiting machine. Between 2008 and 2012, Tina Nguyen was
a politics-obsessed college student and right-wing activist at
Claremont McKenna College. Swept up by conservative rhetoric and
promises of paid internships and scholarships, Nguyen was privy to
the early days of the movement now known as MAGA. Now, Nguyen is
pulling back the curtain not just on her own story within the
alt-right but the full history of the movement, exposing how the
right recruits, trains, indoctrinates, and builds entire networks
of power to bend America to its nativist will. Based on years of
dogged reporting and interviews with countless people--from downing
margaritas with the first Breitbart writers to pouring over
conspiracy theories sent by COVID-19 deniers and even working for
Tucker Carlson in the early days of The Daily Caller--The MAGA
Diaries paints a shocking picture of a shameless movement that will
do anything to triumph over the left, even if it means destroying
every mechanism of government this country holds dear. In The MAGA
Diaries, Nguyen blows the whistle on these dangerous extremists for
the first time, shining a light on the systematized on-ramp for
young Republicans. These are the new leaders of the right, and it's
urgent we start paying attention.
