Paul Ingrassia, a recent Cornell Law graduate and Trump nominee for Special Counsel, participated in a right‑wing group chat where racist, extremist, and demeaning comments circulated. Messages compared Martin Luther King Jr. to George Floyd and urged ending holidays and observances tied to Black history. Ingrassia admitted to having a "Nazi streak" and laughed at links to white nationalist Nick Fuentes. The nomination is further complicated by alleged ties to antisemitic extremists and an ongoing sexual harassment investigation. Multiple chat participants reportedly pushed back against some of Ingrassia's comments, indicating disagreement within the group.
