Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that The Moms For Liberty Hamilton County, Indiana Chapter run by Paige Miller. This is the front page of their newsletter.
The Hamilton County chapter of Moms for Liberty, a national organization recently listed as an “extremist group” by a civil rights watchdog, introduced its first newsletter Wednesday, The Parent Brigade. Adolf Hitler was quoted on its front cover.
Just below The Parent Brigade’s masthead was a quote Hitler used at a Nazi rally in 1935: “He alone, who OWNS the youth, GAINS the future.” The pages of the newsletter were posted on the group’s Facebook page.
After an argument with the local leader of the chapter, Eulalia María Jiménez-Hincapie, Caballero claims that she became the target of the very same harassment campaigns she’d once taken part in.
But the attacks didn’t just come from Moms for Liberty members, Caballero said; they also came from members of a local Proud Boys chapter. The Vice City Proud Boys were co-founded by former Proud Boy “chairman” Enrique Tarrio, who earlier this month was found guilty of seditious conspiracy by a federal jury in Washington, D.C. The alleged attacks included threats to her business, deeply personal messages referencing past trauma, and false police reports against her.
Do NOT speak at the Moms for Liberty National Summit next week. Maybe you’re not aware, but they’re a right-wing extremist group that advocates against school curriculums that mention LGBT rights, race, critical race theory, and discrimination. They’ve also campaigned nationwide to ban books that address gender, race and sexuality issues.
I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and work on the assumption that you agreed to be a speaker at the Moms for Liberty National Summit because you were somehow unaware of their hateful agenda. Maybe you don’t read the papers, are easily swayed by your campaign advisors, or just aren’t that bright. But trust me — speaking before Moms for Liberty would be BAD. Don’t do it, bro.
Late Wednesday night, the front page of the newsletter was updated to include what is described as “context” for the Hitler quote.
“The quote from a horrific leader should put parents on alert,” the update says. “If the government has control over our children today, they control our country’s future. We The People must be vigilant and protect children from an overreaching government.” Justice and Descovich appeared to be responding to the Southern Poverty Law Center, which labeled the Florida-headquartered Moms for Liberty and 11 other right-wing “parents’ rights” organizations as extremist groups in its annual report, released earlier this month.
“(The movement) is primarily aimed at not wanting to include our hard history, topics of racism, and a very strong push against teaching anything having to do with LGBTQ topics in schools,” Susan Corke, an SPLC official, told USA TODAY.
Alexandra Caballero was already well-known in Miami’s far-right scene as an organizer of anti-mask protests at school board meetings when, in August 2021, she joined the city’s chapter of the extremist “parental rights” group known as Moms for Liberty.

For six months, Caballero told VICE News that she was happy to be a member of the group. Founded in 2020, Moms for Liberty portrays itself as a wholesome, grassroots movement that is focused on protecting students. However, previous VICE News investigations uncovered a pattern of disturbing behavior by the group’s members, who have violently harassed and intimidated parents, school superintendents, school board members, and students who have stood up to them. Caballero took part in many of these protests and harassment campaigns until April 2022.
