CHRISTIE MANLEY
Social Media Director

A Florida transplant from Seattle, Christie Manley brings a rare blend of administrative precision and grassroots digital savvy to her role as Social Media Director. After years of working in billing, bookkeeping, and office management, Christie answered the call to serve the America First movement when Donald Trump entered the political arena. She began quietly supporting high-profile truthers behind the scenes, building and moderating Telegram communities and running social media campaigns for voices the public knows well.
With a keen eye for content strategy and a passion for freedom, Christie now channels her expertise into building engaged, informed audiences across platforms. She specializes in creating content that connects, campaigns that drive action, and communities that stand for truth. Christie is thrilled to bring her talents to a team committed to restoring the Republic—and she’s especially happy to be doing it under the Florida sun.
