Szabad Európa: Far-right youngster employed by Hungarian Embassy in Washington to maintain ties with Trump supporters
Since at least February 2021, American citizen Taylor James Ragg has been working as a political assistant at the Hungarian Embassy in Washington. Despite being under 30, Ragg has already built a significant political history within far-right circles.
According to Szabad Európa, Ragg’s role at the embassy is reportedly to manage relations with the Trump-aligned segment of the Republican Party.
About Ragg, the far-right youngster working at the Hungarian Embassy in Washington
Ragg has been active in the American far-right movement for at least seven years. His since-deleted Facebook profile shows that he joined several far-right groups and confirmed his attendance at their events. This is significant because some of these groups were involved in organising the August 2017 rally in Charlottesville, where Ragg was present.
On the night before the planned demonstration on 12 August, white supremacists held an unsanctioned torchlit march on a university campus. Video footage from the event helped Szabad Európa identify Ragg using facial recognition software.
The outlet also reported that Ragg socialised with white nationalist Richard Spencer and previously interned for a U.S. senator. Last year, he attended a CPAC conference in the U.S., where two Hungarian leaders from the Center for Fundamental Rights, Péter Törcsi and Magor Ernyei, were also present.
Both the embassy and Ragg have so far declined to respond to Szabad Európa’s inquiries.
