Vincent James Foxx is a conservative streamer who was on YouTube until his ban in August, 2020.[1] He hosted ‘The Red Elephants’ until it’s rebranding as ‘The Daily Veracity’ in 2021.
Career[edit]
Launching on YouTube close to the 2016 election, James gave a more conservative opinion on Donald Trump's presidency, which got him over 100k subscribers on the platform. James also gave information that contradicted the CDC during the COVID-19 pandemic, which got him a ban in 2020. James also believes the 2020 election was rigged against Trump, and in favor of Joe Biden.[2] James went to protests to contest the election, including the one on January 6, 2021.[3] James also gave speeches at both AFPAC II and III hosted by Nick Fuentes discussing White replacement and the black crime rate.[4][5] After his YouTube ban, James streamed on Dlive and Trovo before getting banned in January and September 2021 respectively.[6] [7] He was one of three streamers to debut on Fuentes' platform cozy.tv the other two being Fuentes himself and Jaden McNeil.[8]
James' website the Daily Veracity is a replacement to his old Red Elephants website, and in 2021 in its first year on the web, got promoted by U.S. Representative from Arizona Paul Gosar. The article in question was "How to Keep Your State Red, And Keep Blue State Refugees Out" to which Gosar says "An interesting article at Daily Veracity about steps red states can take to keep their states prosperous, family friendly, sane and safe. Many from CA and elsewhere flee to AZ. Leave the failed policies behind and support winning policies."[9]
Although James is foucused on federal politics, he pays more attention to local politics. Saying that “We are going to take over this state (Idaho) ... we have a great large group of people, and that group is growing. A true, actual right-wing takeover is happening right now in the state of Idaho. And there’s nothing that these people can do about it. So if you’re a legislator here, either get in line, or get out of the way.”[10] In 2022, James endorsed Janice McGeachin for Governor of Idaho,[11] who even made an appearance at AFPAC III.[12] McGeachin lost the primary to incumbent Governor Brad Little.
James has stated that My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell sold some pillows on James' website DailyVeracity.com with James saying “Big shoutout to Mike Lindell ... because he has given us an opportunity to sell some pillows on DailyVeracity.com, which is awesome. We get like 50 percent of whatever you get from MyPillow.com with the [code] ‘VinceJames.”[13] James has also stated that he personally got discounts from Lindell.
Potential run for office[edit]
In 2021, James on Telegram responded to a "Eyes on the Right" post on Twitter saying that James is moving to Idaho, saying "Yup and soon I will run for office there, win easily, and there's nothing you can do about it."[14] The following year, Arizona State Senator Wendy Rogers called on James to run for office.[15]
Personal life[edit]
James is a Catholic, and married a Brazilian woman in the early 2000s. As of September 2022, the couple has had three children together.
