Career[edit]
On February 19, 2017, Haaretz reported his criticism of Jake Turx, who he labelled an "'Anti-Semitism' Wolf Crier".[8]
On February 27, 2017, Striker was covered by SPLC on his attack on journalists Michael S. Schmidt and Adam Entous, petitioning US President Donald Trump to "make examples of Jew journalists", after he claimed the pair were "making the cable news rounds bragging about committing a felony (publishing illegally procured intelligence)".[9]
On April 27, 2017, he declared that Tucker Carlson was the "voice of America" and within the "spectrum of alt-right",[10] claiming he "destroys people everyone hate",[11] and that "we need to draft him for President".[3]
On January 30, 2018, American law firm Boies, Schiller & Flexner issued a civil action with a U.S. District Court in Charlottesvile against Striker, Richard B. Spencer, Jason Kessler and other alt-right figures in relation to the Unite the Right rally.[12] Subpoenas were issued to Twitter demanding information from the accounts of the defandants.[13][14]
On June 13, 2018, the Anti-Defamation League claimed white supremicist David Duke and political activist Mark Collett were cross-promoting each others causes with Striker, under propaganda titles such as "Terrific Trio Duke, Striker & Collett Together Exposing the Zio Drive to Destroy European Mankind!"[5]

Striker has expressed antisemitic beliefs, including the Zionist Occupation Government conspiracy theory.[15][16]
