The rally, organized by the North Carolina Republican Party, was one of many "March 4 Trump" rallies around the country Saturday. Rabin was one of about a dozen speakers scheduled.
Weaving a tapestry of conspiracy theory and the occasional debunked claim, Rabin claimed that the media, "except for one station," is in league with "the Hollywood elite" and "elite universities" in "a cabal of leftists and internationalists" that includes billionaire Democratic supporter George Soros.
