David Reilly

David “Dave” Reilly attended the August 2017 “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville. Federal-court discovery in Sines v. Kessler identified him as the Identity Evropa member operating under the Discord handle “Davey Crockett.” He moved to North Idaho. The Kootenai County Republican Central Committee endorsed his 2021 Post Falls School Board run. The Idaho Freedom Foundation retained him as a messaging contractor in 2023. He hosts The Backlash podcast, where he has said on his own platform that “Nick Fuentes is right about the Jews.” He appeared twice in March 2025 on Press TV — the U.S.-OFAC-sanctioned Iranian state propaganda outlet. He runs the Idaho Tribune news brand under pseudonymous bylines. His political-revenue paper trail ties to three Wyoming-registered LLCs and at least $41,000 in documented network payments. This dossier is the working file.

Inside this dossier:

• Charlottesville and Sines v. Kessler. Identified in federal-court discovery as the Identity Evropa member behind the Discord handle “Davey Crockett.” Court docket Sines v. Kessler, 3:17-cv-00072, Western District of Virginia.
• The 5,470-tweet deletion archive. Take Back Idaho’s preserved record of Reilly’s deleted X posts, including the December 2019 “cookie mode” Holocaust-crematoria pair and the March 2021 post characterizing fascism as “democratic,” “popular,” “practical,” and “rational.”
• The Backlash Podcast. Holocaust-minimization replies, “Nick Fuentes is right about the Jews,” racial-replacement framing, and verbatim antisemitic posts on his own currently-live X account.
• The IFF secret-hire arc. Idaho Capital Sun and InvestigateWest broke the December 2023 hire. IFF later quietly let him go without public disavowal. He continues network work through KCRCC and Idaho Tribune.
• Iranian Press TV. Reilly admitted on his own X account to two March 2025 appearances on Press TV — eighteen months after the U.S. Treasury designated the outlet under OFAC sanctions.
• Three Wyoming LLCs and $41,000+ in documented network revenue. Idaho Dynamics LLC, Revere Media LLC, Backlash LLC. KCRCC paid Idaho Dynamics $11,000. Ammon Bundy paid Revere Media $30,000. Idaho Tribune publishes as an unincorporated brand.
• The coordination network. Same-day cross-account targeting with Walker (@RogueLou18) on Christa Hazel and on the publisher of this site. Idaho Tribune routinely re-posts Walker’s calls to action.

Who he is

David Reilly grew up in Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania. Per the Daily Item of Sunbury, PA, he was a host at WHLM radio in Bloomsburg until August 2017, when post-Charlottesville advertiser flight followed his rally-related video and supporting tweets. He resigned. By 2020 he was in North Idaho. He ran for and lost a Post Falls School Board seat in 2021. His personal X account is @realDaveReilly. His brand-account Idaho Tribune operates at @IdahoTribune.

He hosts The Backlash podcast. He runs Idaho Tribune — the news brand at idahotribune.com and idahotribune.org. His current personal media domain davereillymedia.com is registered through Epik LLC, the registrar of choice for far-right operators after mainstream-registrar deplatforming.

Charlottesville and Sines v. Kessler

Reilly attended the August 11–12, 2017 “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville. Per InvestigateWest reporting by Daniel Walters and Idaho Capital Sun, he attended wearing a pin with the logo of Identity Evropa — an organization the Anti-Defamation League classifies as a white-supremacist group. Per the Daily Item, advertiser pressure following his post-rally drone-footage video forced his exit from WHLM radio.

Reilly was not a named defendant in Sines v. Kessler. He was identified in federal-court discovery as the Identity Evropa member operating under the Discord handle “Davey Crockett.” The case docketed at the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Virginia as 3:17-cv-00072, Sines, et al. v. Kessler, et al. The November 23, 2021 verdict awarded plaintiffs $25 million in punitive and compensatory damages, later reduced by the court. Per ABC News’ contemporaneous Charlottesville-anniversary coverage, a former think-tank head associated with rally co-organizer Richard Spencer publicly identified Reilly as alt-right after the rally.

Per the public KCRCC News compilation citing Sines v. Kessler trial materials, Charlottesville organizer Jason Kessler’s testimony at the November 15, 2021 trial directly named “Davey Crockett” as Reilly under oath.

The deleted-tweet archive

Take Back Idaho built davereillysdeletedtweets.com — a public archive of approximately 5,470 deleted tweets from Reilly’s pre-2022 timeline. The dataset is mirrored at the salcoast/deleted-tweets-archive GitHub repository. Individual deleted statuses resolve through the Wayback Machine.

The headline exhibits, all verbatim from the Take Back Idaho archive:

December 23, 2019 — “Cookie Mode” #1. “If you had 14 ovens working around the clock for 5 years, with Hulda’s cookie recipe you could bake 4,599,000 batches of cookies! Yum!” — posted with an attached image. The post translates Holocaust-crematoria capacity into a baking metric.

December 24, 2019 — “Cookie Mode” #2. “Going Cookie Mode.” — the next-day follow-up, reframing the prior post into a brand.

January 27, 2020 — Holocaust Remembrance Day post. “#NeverForget Saint Maximilian Kolbe died in Auschwitz. Jews do not have a monopoly on suffering during World War II.” — posted on International Holocaust Remembrance Day.

May 21, 2020 — “Jewish Revolutionary Spirit.” “The Jewish Revolutionary Spirit and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race.” — linking E. Michael Jones’s book of the same title.

May 21, 2020 — “Jewish supremacy.” “Not as much as Jewish supremacy. Black people don’t control the media, the government, Hollywood, academia, intelligence agencies, banking systems etc.”

May 21, 2020 — “Christ hating Jew.” “BREAKING: Degenerate Christ hating Jew wants Catholic Church closed, calling all priests pedophiles…”

March 2021 — Fascism endorsement. Twitter status ID 1371703211136933893, preserved on the Wayback Machine: Reilly publicly characterized fascism as “democratic,” “popular,” “practical,” and “rational.”

June 25, 2021 — Violence-fantasy post. “I’m getting trigger happy these days. Clown world is hard to navigate sometimes.”

July 9, 2021 — “Jews control the media.” “Jews control the media. If you point this out, they will deny their influence and then promptly have you banned and demonized by the media. They don’t understand that they’re proving our point for us.”

The archive is the receipt — each tweet deleted by Reilly, each preserved by Take Back Idaho.

The Idaho Tribune operation

Reilly operates idahotribune.com (registered through NameSilo, April 2022, behind privacyguardian.org) and idahotribune.org (registered through GoDaddy, March 2021, default privacy proxy) under pseudonymous bylines. Two named sources support the attribution.

Branden Durst — former Idaho Freedom Foundation education-policy staffer — publicly confirmed Reilly’s authorship per Take Back Idaho’s reporting carried at Political Potatoes. Durst’s confirmation specifies that Reilly publishes under a false name and a stock photograph, and that Idaho Tribune has used the same photograph the Dorothy Moon-led Idaho GOP used on its social media.

Daniel Walters — the InvestigateWest reporter who broke the IFF-Reilly hire story — has separately documented overlap in the web-hosting infrastructure between Idaho Tribune and Reilly’s personal account, including shared graphics-asset references.

Idaho Tribune publishes as an unincorporated brand. The two domains and the @IdahoTribune X account function as the publishing infrastructure; the editorial product runs continuously through that brand.

The brand-account @IdahoTribune operates as the de facto promotional arm of the Kootenai County Republican Central Committee. Sample posts: a December 2025 KCRCC town-hall promo, March 2026 legislative-event push, and an April 2026 push. The same brand-account ran the April 24, 2026 attack post naming Christa Hazel and pushing claims about North Idaho organizing — content editorially indistinguishable from Reilly’s personal account.

The Backlash Podcast — Holocaust denial, racial replacement, named on his own platform

The Backlash is Reilly’s podcast. Transcripts are publicly distributed at truthrevealed.news/transcripts. Episode-note language and recurring sponsor relationships are part of the public record at the same archive.

The 2025–2026 receipts come from Reilly’s own X account, where he promotes the show and reposts its content.

December 11, 2025 — @realDaveReilly: “Nick Fuentes is right about the Jews.”

December 13, 2025 and December 16, 2025 — two separate replies on his timeline using the “I heard it was 6 million” Holocaust-minimization framing.

December 20, 2025 — Talmud-quotation thread tying Jeffrey Epstein to claims about Jews and the slave trade.

January 24, 2026 — @realDaveReilly: “I am absolutely HONORED to be spoken of as a leader of the Christian Nationalist movement here in Idaho, in the same breath as Nick Fuentes no less! The Jew giving this speech, Heath Druzin…”

February 15, 2026 — @realDaveReilly quoting an old Ben Shapiro tweet: “Hard to believe this tweet is 10 years old now. Feels like 6 million years ago…”

February 15, 2026 — @realDaveReilly endorsing E. Michael Jones’s “work on the Jewish Question from a Catholic perspective.”

May 2, 2026 — @realDaveReilly: “Nick Fuentes Redpilled Charlie Sheen!”

August 25, 2025 — Backlash Episode 68 promo: “Zionism, Race & the Future of Christian Nationalism.”

The Heath Druzin reference is its own connector. Druzin is the Boise State Public Radio reporter who first publicly documented Reilly’s attendance at the Sellner-Pettibone wedding in Austria and the relocation of Henrik Palmgren’s Red Ice operation to North Idaho. Reilly’s January 2026 post — “the Jew giving this speech, Heath Druzin” — names that reporter by ethnicity on his own account.

The Regan / KCRCC operating relationship

The Kootenai County Republican Central Committee under Chairman Brent Regan endorsed Reilly’s 2021 Post Falls School Board run after Reilly’s Charlottesville record was already public.

Per Idaho Capital Sun’s March 10, 2022 reporting by Audrey Dutton, then-KCRCC Youth Chair Dan Bell was recorded by a third party describing a plan in which Republicans would register as Democrats, become Democratic precinct chairs across Kootenai County, and vote Reilly in as Kootenai Democratic Party Chair. On the recording, Bell described the planned Democratic Chair as “a guy that they call racist, antisemitic, Holocaust denier” — referring to Reilly. Per the same reporting, Bell stated on the recording that Regan was “totally on board” with the plan and that Regan came up with the specific idea to install Reilly as Kootenai Democratic Party Chair. On March 10, 2022, Reilly registered as a Democrat and filed for a Democratic precinct-captain position. On March 25, 2022, per CDA Press, Reilly filed as a Democratic gubernatorial write-in candidate.

Per the Idaho Secretary of State Sunshine campaign-finance database, KCRCC paid Idaho Dynamics LLC — a Wyoming-registered ad firm tied to Reilly’s operations — three line items totaling $11,000 in spring 2022. Two payments of $5,000 and $1,000 on March 30, 2022 (Operations); a $5,000 payment on April 29, 2022 (Ads — Prep / Production).

In December 2023, InvestigateWest’s Daniel Walters and Idaho Capital Sun broke that the Idaho Freedom Foundation had retained Reilly as a contractor doing communications and messaging strategy work. Per Walters’s reporting, IFF Vice President Alli Megal described the engagement as “some work for us for comms” and “just a contractor”; asked whether Reilly was still employed, Megal said “rather not say”; asked whether the board knew, she said “of course.” IFF President Wayne Hoffman declined to comment.

Asked by Walters about the hire, Brent Regan — IFF Board Chair and KCRCC Chairman — gave the line that has shadowed the case since:

The IFF board chair, asked about the foundation’s retention of a Charlottesville participant with a documented antisemitic posting record, deflected to the president’s Jewish identity. The deflection is the editorial point.

The Christa Hazel attack pattern

Christa Hazel defeated Brent Regan in the 2013 Coeur d’Alene School Board race, 63 percent to 37 percent. By 2025 she was a leader of the North Idaho Republicans, the Kootenai County Republican group that organized publicly against the KCRCC’s “rating and vetting” process. Reilly’s account has documented more than 55 posts targeting her, predominantly negative, and at least 45 that escalate into personal- or family-level attacks.

October 30, 2025 — @realDaveReilly: “running cover for your RINO/Zionist friend Christa Hazel.”

February 28, 2026 — @realDaveReilly: “Is the moral of the story ‘excise Christa Hazel?’”

April 22, 2026 — @realDaveReilly tying Hazel to alleged FBI connections.

May 3, 2026 — @realDaveReilly extending the attack to Hazel’s adoptive father by posting a COINTELPRO-themed conspiracy thread referencing his FBI service.

The May 3 post is the editorial signature: a same-conversation thread in which @RogueLou18 (covered below in the coordination section) replies on the same day to extend the smear into personal-encounter framing and a homophobic slur. The two accounts hit the same target on the same day.

In the November 2025 Hazel-Social-Security-number incident — when the KCRCC posted a 1992 J.C. Penney criminal complaint carrying Hazel’s full Social Security number on its official Facebook and X accounts — the Idaho Statesman and Spokesman-Review covered the story on November 4, 2025 and the Coeur d’Alene Press followed on November 6, 2025. The same network that posted Hazel’s Social Security number on official KCRCC channels operates the Reilly accounts that have been targeting her in escalating language across multiple cycles. The full chronology is documented in the Brent Regan dossier.

The Mark Fitzpatrick gubernatorial endorsement

On February 7, 2026, the @IdahoTribune brand-account posted: “Idaho Tribune UNEQUIVOCALLY ENDORSES @oldstatemark in his campaign for Governor in 2026!” — directed at Eagle saloon owner Mark Fitzpatrick’s Republican primary challenge to Governor Brad Little. Across the four-year window covered by the live X archive, the @realDaveReilly and @IdahoTribune accounts have produced 15-plus positive Fitzpatrick posts and fewer than five negative ones.

The endorsement is the receipt connecting two strands of this dossier. Fitzpatrick hosted Reilly at the 2025 Hetero Awesome Fest at Old State Saloon — the event at which Reilly said on a live podcast broadcast that Boise is “clean. There aren’t any black people here.” The full chronology of that event and Fitzpatrick’s response is documented in the Mark Fitzpatrick dossier.

The Frank L. DeSilva connection

Frank L. DeSilva is a convicted member of The Order — also known as the Brüder Schweigen or Silent Brotherhood — the 1980s neo-Nazi terror cell whose June 1984 assassination of Denver Jewish radio host Alan Berg and 1984 bombing of the Ahavath Beth Israel synagogue in Boise produced the federal RICO prosecutions tried in U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington in 1985–1986.

Per The New York Times on February 7–8, 1986, DeSilva received a 40-year federal sentence in February 1986 alongside other Order members. Per Wikipedia’s entry on The Order and federal Bureau of Prisons records, DeSilva served approximately thirteen years and was released in August 1998. He is also a self-described former KKK Grand Dragon (California chapter) with a 1983 misdemeanor cross-burning conviction. He self-published Brüder Schweigen: The Story of the Silent Brothers in 2013.

Per The Irish Times (Conor Gallagher, July 24, 2024), DeSilva — California-based, mid-sixties — has been mentoring Irish far-right activists via Zoom on publicity, avoiding prosecution, and producing viral law-enforcement-encounter moments.

DeSilva operates the X account @desilva_frank.

The Reilly–DeSilva direct interactions are on the public record.

May 24, 2025 — @desilva_frank replied to a Reilly post in a same-conversation thread on race-versus-religion. Reilly’s original post used the framing “Humans without Jesus are animals, regardless of race.” DeSilva’s reply: “All spirituality is downstream from race. There is no escaping this axiomatic truth.” The reply collected 17 likes.

Per Mother Jones reporting, February 2026, Reilly hosted DeSilva at an Idaho-context online event tied to the local Pride counter-organizing in Coeur d’Alene in 2025. Mother Jones reports Reilly warmly greeted DeSilva at the event.

A Charlottesville-pin-wearing former radio host platforming a convicted Order member at an Idaho-context event in 2025 — that’s the chain of custody. The Order’s record includes the Berg assassination and the Boise synagogue bombing.

Twin Falls — the Valley House Homeless Shelter stunt

In the lead-up to the 2022 Idaho GOP Chair contest between Tom Luna (incumbent) and Dorothy Moon (challenger), Reilly distributed “Pizza for the Hungry” flyers at the Valley House Homeless Shelter in Twin Falls. Reilly was backing Moon. The flyers steered homeless families to Tom Luna’s “Pizza and Patriots” delegate event with the implication of a free meal.

The stunt was designed to embarrass Luna by surprising his event with families he hadn’t planned for.

Luna fed them anyway.

Valley House Executive Director John Spiers publicly gave Reilly a 24-hour window to apologize for using homeless families as political props. Reilly never apologized. Moon defeated Luna in the IDGOP Chair race shortly afterward.

Contemporaneous coverage at Idaho Press (Betsy Z. Russell), KTVB, CDA Press, and Idaho Capital Sun’s David Reilly tag archive carries the chronology.

CultureWars and the E. Michael Jones break

Per Take Back Idaho’s reporting at Political Potatoes, Reilly worked for approximately two years as an editor at CultureWars.com, the Catholic-traditionalist publication operated by E. Michael Jones.

The break was public. On January 21, 2025, Jones released EMJ Live 105: White Catholicism — Dave Reilly’s New Grift — Jones characterizing Reilly’s then-current activity as “a grift” in the episode title alone. Reilly’s earlier Culture-Wars-era video output is mirrored at archive sites including altCensored under the title “CULTURE WARS WITH DAVE REILLY.”

The pattern: Reilly’s career in Catholic-traditionalist far-right media moved through CultureWars and out of it via a public falling-out with the publication’s founder. The break is on the record from Jones’s own platform.

Spencer-on-Backlash and the alt-right identification

Per ABC News’ August 2018 Charlottesville-anniversary coverage, a former think-tank head associated with Charlottesville co-organizer Richard Spencer publicly identified Reilly as alt-right after the rally. Spencer himself later appeared as a guest on Reilly’s Backlash podcast — corroborated through People for the American Way’s Right Wing Watch coverage.

The Reilly-hosted Backlash episode Gavin McInnes Joins THE BACKLASH to Discuss SPLC Lawsuit and Charlottesville is hosted at FTJ Media. McInnes — Proud Boys founder — appeared on Reilly’s platform to discuss the civil-rights litigation against him and the Charlottesville record. Backlash operates as a venue Charlottesville-cycle figures pass through. The roster is on the record at Reilly’s own platform.

Iranian Press TV — appearance eighteen months after OFAC sanctions

In March 2025, Reilly appeared on Press TV — the English-language outlet of Iran’s state broadcaster IRIB — for two segments hosted by Kiarash Pournemmati, a regular Press TV host. Reilly discussed the U.S. economy and the second Trump administration’s policy posture. He promoted both segments on his own X account.

March 21, 2025 — @realDaveReilly: “Made my debut on Iranian TV this week. Thanks for having me on @PressTV! Can’t wait to do it again 😇”

March 22, 2025 — @realDaveReilly: video of the appearance with Pournemmati.

June 9, 2025 — @realDaveReilly defending the appearance: “Doing an interview with Press TV about the economy does not equal ‘working with Iran.’ I do interviews, because I’m a newsworthy person.”

January 14, 2026 — @realDaveReilly: Backlash Podcast Episode 108 promo, “From Tehran to Minneapolis: America on the Brink.”

The OFAC anchor:

The U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control designated Press TV under sanctions on September 15, 2023 for broadcasting forced confessions and functioning as Iranian-regime propaganda. The European Union, Australia, and other jurisdictions followed. Reilly’s appearance came eighteen months after the U.S. designation.

Christian-Nationalism — self-identified

Per the January 24, 2026 X post: @realDaveReilly: “I am absolutely HONORED to be spoken of as a leader of the Christian Nationalist movement here in Idaho, in the same breath as Nick Fuentes no less!” The post was a direct response to a Boise State Public Radio piece by Heath Druzin.

August 25, 2025 — Backlash Episode 68: “Zionism, Race & the Future of Christian Nationalism.”

January 21, 2025 — @realDaveReilly characterizing Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette as “saints” who “died fighting the proto-Communism of the godless French Revolutionaries. Vive le Roi!”

The label is Reilly’s own, and the receipts are on his own account.

The Sellner-Pettibone Austria wedding

Martin Sellner is the Austrian co-founder of the Identitäre Bewegung Österreich (Identitarian Movement Austria). Per his Wikipedia entry drawing on Austrian press, German-language coverage, and Le Monde, Sellner received a €1,500 donation from Christchurch mosque shooter Brenton Tarrant in January 2018; Austrian authorities searched his home in March 2019 in connection with that donation. Sellner was permanently excluded from the United Kingdom in 2018 and had his U.S. visa-waiver privileges revoked in 2019. Brittany Pettibone is a Post Falls, Idaho–area native, Pizzagate amplifier, and co-host of Virtue of the West. She was deported from the UK alongside Sellner in 2018.

After Sellner’s U.S.-visa-waiver revocation forced the couple to abandon a planned Idaho ceremony, they married in an Austrian countryside church in August 2019. Per Boise State Public Radio’s Heath Druzin reporting on August 11, 2022:

Six years later, Reilly publicly confirmed the friendship.

May 15, 2025 — @realDaveReilly: “@Martin_Sellner is a friend of mine. I will not have any Martin-bashing on the TL. Be nice!”

November 25, 2024 — @MartinSellner_ replied to a Reilly post: “Thank you!!”

The Druzin sentence is the public load-bearing anchor. The wedding photograph circulating in private channels is corroborative; the BSPR sentence is the citation.

Henrik Palmgren, Red Ice, and North Idaho

Henrik Palmgren founded Red Ice in Sweden. Per Wikipedia, the Guardian’s November 26, 2019 reporting on Facebook’s white-nationalist deplatforming round, the Atlantic Council’s DFRLab, the Daily Beast, and Harper’s (September 2017), Red Ice is a long-running white-nationalist media operation that was banned by YouTube and Facebook in 2019.

Per Boise State Public Radio’s August 2022 reporting:

Reilly has appeared on Red Ice programming on the record.

Flashback Friday Episode 50 — November 1–3, 2019: “GroyperUprising: ZOA, Gorka, TPUSA Target Fuentes, Guest: Dave Reilly.” Hosts: Palmgren and Lokteff. Companion piece: Red Ice Radio — Groyper Revolt Against Israel-First Conservative Inc. Internet Archive Bitchute mirror: archive.org.

Red Ice Radio — May 13, 2021: “Israel Goes To War In Palestine.” Host: Palmgren. Reilly joined the program to “continue speaking about the escalating conflict.”

Reilly has appeared on Palmgren’s platform across two years and three documented programs. The Druzin BSPR sentence places Palmgren’s operation in North Idaho.

The IFF secret-hire-and-let-go arc

The hire ran in secret until Idaho Capital Sun and InvestigateWest forced it into public view in December 2023. The relevant primary anchors are Walters at InvestigateWest and the Dutton + Druzin co-byline at Idaho Capital Sun, December 12, 2023.

The IFF had retained Reilly as a contractor doing communications and messaging strategy work. Megal’s verbatim quotes — “some work for us for comms,” “just a contractor,” “rather not say,” “of course” (when asked whether the board knew) — are on the record at the linked sources. Hoffman declined to comment.

The IFF retainer dollar figure is not publicly anchored. Walters’s reporting did not produce a contract length, hourly rate, or total. The dossier does not specify a number absent a public record.

The IFF subsequently let Reilly go without public disavowal. Per Take Back Idaho via Political Potatoes, an IFF Vice President later confirmed Reilly was no longer employed by them. Reilly continued network work — KCRCC literature distribution, Idaho Tribune publication, Backlash production. The IFF did not disavow his record.

Follow the money — three Wyoming LLCs and $41,000+ in network revenue

Reilly’s business entities are registered in Wyoming, not Idaho. Wyoming LLCs do not publicly disclose members or managers in the way Idaho filings require. The choice of state is the privacy shield. PDFs of the underlying filings are hosted at truthrevealed.news.

Idaho Dynamics LLC — Wyoming-registered, filed 2022. Mailing address: a PO Box at Upscale Mail in Post Falls, the same address Reilly has used on personal campaign materials. Documented revenue: $11,000 from KCRCC in spring 2022 across three Sunshine line items (operations + ad-prep/production).

Revere Media LLC — Wyoming-registered. Per Daniel Walters’s December 2023 InvestigateWest reporting: “Records show Bundy paid $30,000 for marketing work to a Reilly-connected ad firm named Revere Media.” The $30,000 from Ammon Bundy is the documented revenue line.

Backlash LLC — Wyoming filing 2025-001638640, filed March 19, 2025. Registered agent: Richard C. Slater, P.C., 7302 Yellowstone Road, Cheyenne, WY 82009. The LLC publishes The Backlash podcast.

Idaho Tribune publishes as an unincorporated brand. The two domains plus the @IdahoTribune X account carry the editorial product.

The Backlash monetization stack:

• Patreon: patreon.com/thebacklash
• SubscribeStar: subscribestar.com/thebacklash
• Direct donate: thebacklash.net/donate, thebacklash.net/superchat
• Recurring sponsor — Idaho Tallow Co. / North Idaho Tallow Co. Episode-note language: “Proceeds of sales help fund alternative media like our show!” — an explicit revenue-share signal.
• Recurring sponsor — Antelope Hill Publishing, the press that publishes Kevin MacDonald’s Culture of Critique and the Identitarian / “New Right” canon.
• Additional recurring sponsors: Above Time Coffee Roasters, Atlas Bullion, ODGG Supply.

Documented network revenue to Reilly entities: at least $41,000 across two named payers (KCRCC + Bundy) plus the recurring sponsor stack.

Coordinated amplification — Walker and the Idaho Tribune brand

The Reilly accounts do not operate alone. The cleanest receipt is the simultaneous targeting pattern.

The COINTELPRO/Hazel thread, May 3, 2026. @realDaveReilly posted the conspiracy thread about Christa Hazel’s adoptive father; @RogueLou18 — operator handle for Idaho Freedom Caucus X-amplifier Walker — replied in the same conversation extending the smear into personal-encounter framing and a homophobic slur. The two accounts hit the same target in the same conversation on the same day.

The Greg Graf attack, February 24–25, 2026. @RogueLou18 posted a one-line attack — “Greg Graf? 🤮” — targeting the publisher of this site. The next day @IdahoTribune posted: “OH DEAR GOD! Whatever these guys are up to, it can’t be good. Everything Greasey Greg Graf touches is AWFUL.” Two consecutive days, same target, matching framing.

The Take Back Idaho coordination, January 29, 2026. @RogueLou18 attacked an Idaho Statesman article that quoted Take Back Idaho, calling the organization “one of the MOST radical left orgs in state.” The same window saw matched Reilly/Tribune attacks on Take Back Idaho.

The Ruby Ridge framing, March 31, 2026. @realDaveReilly quoted @RogueLou18’s “sawed off shotgun, in honor of Randy Weaver” Idaho-state-gun proposal.

Routine @IdahoTribune amplification of @RogueLou18’s calls to action — March 29, 2026 sheriff/cartel investigation push, January 31, 2026 teacher attack, September 12, 2025 NIC professor attack.

Where he sits in the network

Reilly’s structural position runs through three institutional bodies: the Idaho Freedom Foundation (former messaging contractor), the Kootenai County Republican Central Committee (endorser of his 2021 school-board run, $11,000 paid to Idaho Dynamics LLC, ongoing literature-distribution work), and Idaho Tribune (the unincorporated news-style brand he operates under pseudonymous bylines).

The personal-platform layer is The Backlash podcast, the @realDaveReilly X account, and the @IdahoTribune brand-account — three lanes that share targets and themes with the @RogueLou18 IFC-amplifier account.

The international layer runs through Sellner / Pettibone in Austria, Palmgren / Lokteff with Red Ice’s North Idaho relocation, and the Press TV appearances anchored on the U.S. OFAC sanctioning of the outlet.

The financial layer is three Wyoming LLCs without Idaho disclosure, $41,000+ in documented network payments from KCRCC and Bundy, and a Backlash sponsor stack that includes Antelope Hill Publishing.

The dossier covers the documented record. Each section anchors on a primary source — court filings, named reporters, official campaign-finance databases, U.S. Treasury OFAC records, the deleted-tweets archive, or Reilly’s own posts on his own platforms.
