On Monday, former Trump adviser Steve Bannon promoted Amy Kremer — who helped organize the Stop the Steal rally on January 6, 2021 — in her campaign to serve as Georgia National Committeewoman on the Republican National Committee.

Kremer’s group, Women for America First, helped host the January 6, 2021, event where former President Donald Trump called on his supporters to march to the U.S. Capitol, which was followed by a riot aimed at preventing the certification of the 2020 election. Leading up to the insurrection, Kremer’s daughter Kylie launched a “Stop the Steal” Facebook group, which became a hotbed of “disinformation and calls for violence” and reached 350,000 members before being shut down by the platform.

After Biden’s inauguration, Kremer promoted an “audit” of the 2020 presidential election results in Georgia, similar to the sham audit pushed by Trump sycophants in Arizona. She later created a fake mug shot apparently designed to make it look like she had been charged with attempting to overturn the 2020 Georgia election results. Like many of Bannon’s guests, Kremer has also appeared on the QAnon channel Patriots’ Soapbox.

Bannon is one of the country’s leading election deniers, and his War Room show is a hub of misinformation, even relative to other right-wing media.

STEVE BANNON (HOST): Amy Kremer is fighting this fight in Georgia, and, man, they hate Amy Kremer down there. They're establishment. Because you're another one – you're a pain in the ass because you out them every day. Tell me about your fight, Amy.

AMY KREMER (GUEST): Hey, Steve. Thanks for having me on. Yeah, I'm running for National Committeewoman from the Georgia GOP to represent at the RNC, and I'm not a part of the club, and I don't want to be a part of the club. 

...

But listen, this is the thing. Nothing's been done here in the state of Georgia on election integrity. Absolutely nothing. I've run around this state trying to recall Raffensperger, trying to get the paper ballots. Our Georgia legislature hasn't done anything. I think the Georgia GOP can do more.
