Audrey Trujillo: "Antifa Peed My Bed."

 

Our researchers Tweeted about Audrey’s racist and anti-Semitic tweets for months. She was finally called out for her posts by New Mexico State House Leader Brian Engolf and State Representative Matthew McQueen in April of 2022.

   

In her press release, Audrey claimed, "... House Speaker Brian Engolf posted an attack against me on Twitter with screenshots of fake profiles created by known members of Antifa smearing my name."

Eventually, Dan McKay of the Albuquerque Journal wrote about it: Candidate’s account links Jews to vaccines, mocks Mexicans. Trujillo claimed the tweets were fabricated in the interview, “perhaps by Antifa activists.”  Later, when shown her social media posts, like Marjorie Taylor Green, Audrey Trujillo contended that she didn’t remember the tweets.

It is important to note in the article that Audrey actually claims that she is, "Hispanic and has Jewish heritage. “I’m not racist,” she said. “Honestly, I hate that stuff.”"

Once again, Audrey issued a press release. Oddly enough, this time, Audrey didn't blame Antifa. Rather, she played the "I'm not racist, I have Jewish heritage" defense.

 

If Antifa did hack Audrey’s Twitter account, she apparently didn’t report it. She did lock and change the name of her campaign account. 

       

However, this isn’t the first time Audrey has gotten into trouble for her social media posts. In 2017, the Associated Press reprinted an article by Daniel Chacon of The Santa Fe New Mexican, “GOP apologizes to Gov. Lujan Grisham for Facebook post.”
