Don’t run out of coffee during the apocalypse. Stock up on delicious coffee that’s freeze-dried and sealed to keep it fresh for decades.
In March, a Twitter account popped up that pretty much nobody had heard of before. By this morning, it had accumulated a total of 54 followers. The person associated with the account is not a celebrity, politicians, influencer, or someone who is often impersonated on the platform. But the account was “verified” by Twitter and is being used to spread radical leftist and pro-CCP propaganda.
Now, many on Twitter are asking, “Who is ‘Dr. Jialun'”?
• New account created in March 2021
• Has less than 200 followers
• already verified by Twitter
• uses platform to spread misinformation
• pushes anti-Trump, anti-white narratives
Does nobody find this suspicious? Big tech is on this. How many more are like this? https://t.co/isko3QmGJM

We should assume that “Dr. Jialun” is a real person, but judging by the Tweets in the account’s short life it’s not a stretch to believe whoever is behind it is operating on behalf of the Chinese Communist Party. The question we’d love to have answered is why is it verified? Shill accounts are common; there are likely more bots on Twitter than there are real people. But verified accounts have a degree of influence granted to them by Big Tech tyrants that gives them broader reach. Engagement between verified accounts have their own, unique tab on Twitter that allows them to interact with each other more.
Searches for “Dr. Jialun” do not reveal any particular celebrity status. He lists himself as “Medical doctor, Molecular Biologist, Computer scientist.” None of these accomplishments are generally rewarded with verified status without a certain degree of influence otherwise. Could this be a move by the Chinese Communist Party or other entities to promote their agenda through verified accounts that they control?
His rhetoric is being called out.
This is a verified Chinese bot account. https://t.co/Yx6N18o5So

As Gad Saad noted, it’s always Trump’s fault.

Good question from Hans Mahncke.
How does a CCP propagandist account with 63 followers get a blue check? https://t.co/jeHoGwgnyD

Shenanigans indeed.
A one month old account with less than 100 followers and is verified? I call shenanigans. https://t.co/ADpHSLRaOf

As Jack Hadfield at National File noted, the account follows some suspect accounts:
Following the bizarre denial from the account, it was higlighted that despite only having been created in March of last month, one of their 50 or so followers was Chen Weihua, the China Daily EU Bureau Chief, leading some to suggest that the narrative promoted by Jialun’s account was being driven by Chinese state agents.
In the time that this article was being researched, the account has taken down its bio, removed a link to the LinkedIn page, deleted the LinkedIn profile, changed its profile picture, and accumulated over 100 more followers.
Whatever shenanigans are behind this “verified” Twitter account, it’s getting noticed in all the wrong ways. If the CCP, Twitter, or anyone else wants to spread anti-American propaganda, they need to up their game.

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our new GiveSendGo. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Truth Based Media
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
