Part 2: Sarah Ashton-Cirillo aka Michael John Cirillo Links To Gonzalo Lira

Why did the Daily Beast Scrub Their Article Of Her Working With the FBI?

The other connection that we have with the Daily Beast is Michael John Cirillo now known as Sarah Ashton-Cirillo who is a trans pro-Ukraine journalist.

An article titled " This Undercover Operative Says She Recruited the Proud Boys for the GOP" written on June 3, 2021 talks how she infiltrated far right group Proud Boys and tie them to a Vegas-based GOP consultant.

"In the months leading up to the 2020 election, Sarah Ashton-Cirillo, a self-described progressive activist, embedded herself in GOP circles as part of her research for a book on right-wing extremism. What she found was a Republican consultant desperate to team the Proud Boys up with the Nevada GOP in order to challenge ballots and flip the presidential election."

The weirdest part about this, as I was writing this thread today the Daily Beast scrubbed this article from their website literally after an hour after I posted this to my Telegram page. Here is the sauce:

Good thing the internet is forever: https://web.archive.org/web/20210603225824/https://www.thedailybeast.com/this-undercover-operative-says-she-recruited-the-proud-boys-for-the-gop

Sounds like a fedboi/ informant to me.

Why does this matter? Cirillo is boots on the ground in Ukraine as we speak embedded with the Nazi Azov Battalion and she was celebrating the supposed capture of Lira. Is she in anyway helped these people locate Lira?

As you can see she is very excited about reports that Lira was captured. She even went as far as calling him a "Russian spy" with 0 evidence to back this up besides what they consider wrong speak from his YouTube videos. Do you see how dangerous this is?

Here is the article where Sarah talks about her experiences with the FBI has they used her information to conduct raids on political figures in Nevada she opposed and labeled as far right extremists.

"The story of Ashton-Cirillo’s involvement doesn’t end there, as this past month, FBI agents corresponded with her relating to their investigation of Fiore and other potential matters of interest. According to reports filed with the Secretary of State, Fiore has used campaign funds to cover payments for food, parties, and personal items, including payments to family members such as her daughter, who Fiore claims performed campaign services.

Agents raided Fiore’s home earlier this year, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal."

This is what you call a FEDBOI!

I find it very odd with all this news coming out on Lira that the Daily Beast would scrub any connections to her while more of this info is brought to light. Is this an admission that Daily Beast feels responsible for the disappearance of Lira? Why are they distancing themselves from this Sarah character? All these questions need to be answered and may be answered in Part 3. We break down the SBU agents who allegedly kidnapped Lira in part 3.
