OANN: Who Is Jack Posobiec?
Jack Posobi host on the One America News Network (OANN), a news organization known for manipulating facts and praised by President Trump.
In May 2021, he left OANN to present a show for the Republican student organization Turning Point USA and to work as a senior editor for the conservative news site Human Events.
