Career

After graduating from Bard College in 2012, he first worked as Business Strategist at Einhorn Media Group. Since then, he worked as a Digital Strategist at Anomaly in New York, New York, until he was fired from his job shortly after Milo Yiannopoulos wrote an article praising his work in the conservative movement.

Wintrich is currently the White House correspondent for The Gateway Pundit. On March 2017, he was confronted before a press conference by Fox News Channel Radio reporter Jon Decker. Decker also yelled that Gateway Pundit "hates Blacks,Jews, Hispanics".

He gave a speech titled "It's Okay to Be White", a reference to a broader movement started by 4chan. While giving the speech, a woman walked up to the podium and stole his speech. He responded by yanking her back and trying to get the speech back. [2]

Citation Linkbroadly.vice.com“This group is very tacky and not as fun as the Westboro Baptist Church,” says Lucian Wintrich, the budding conservative provocateur who takes photos of “Twinks for Trump” on his Instagram.“I wanted for a while to combine my love of twinks with my love of politics and Donald Trump,” Wintrich explains as we walk past blown-up portraits of slim, hairless, strong-jawed young men, posed like Grecian statues with their laurels replaced with “Make America Great Again” hats.”

Citation Linkredalertpolitics.com“Lucian Wintrich is a New York-based photographer who wanted to fuse right-wing politics and pop culture.So he created a photo series called “Twinks for Trump;” think of it as Breitbart meets gay Tumblr.The pictures premiered at the pro-LGBT “Wake Up!” party after the Republican National Convention and were so shocking that they were featured in Rolling Stone, IJ Review, and Broadly.Wintrich told Red Alert Politics that he felt compelled to create the photo series because the left has dominated the arts.”
