(Jacob Bruns, Headline USA) Conservative activist group Turning Point USA has begun targeting ABC’s media hacks on The View for calling the movement a branch of Nazism, the Gateway Pundit reported.
At a recent Turning Point USA rally in Florida a group of fake Nazis showed up to make the rally appear to be a group of far-right extremists.

In a remarkable display of what can only be described as journalistic sloth or total vindictiveness, the women of The View used the operation to condemn the entire Turning Point USA movement as an iteration of National Socialism.
Turning Point USA issued a cease and desist letter to the Disney-owned ABC earlier this week demanding that the statements be retracted.
“The false statements of fact intentionally made during The View’s July 25th segment were unquestionably harmful to TPUSA’s reputation and brought the organization and its student affiliates into disrepute with the public, potential donors, and current and future business partners, posing a significant financial loss to the organization,” the letter said.
According to Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, they may be suing The View for its defamation.
Talking to lawyers. Many think we have a strong case. You cannot smear minors as Nazis and get away with it. It impacts them for the rest of their life. #SueTheView
