She's a lobbyist. She usually works behind the scenes, meeting with people and groups to get them on board for something, or to keep them all focused and prevent fracturing of their coalition.

The large whack-out subset within that group would say otherwise. Some are out, some aren't.

I must have missed her media appearances etc., but I don’t recall her being a public figure.

What public activities did I miss?

But that has nothing to do with the notion that at some point in the past, any significant part of the public was hearing from her.

She didn’t make any public statements about her role in 1/6 either, and is put money on the proposition that prior to the last two years, you didn’t know who she was.

If the idea was just to inform thousands of people that she still exists, then your mission is accomplished.

...rarely a public figure. Like many RWers, she was more inclined to wave her junk around in public when Trump was in office, but she was still the type who did her activism in boardrooms and over expense-account meals than where the general public might hear her.

Arguing is the orderly presentation of facts and logic to prove or disprove a proposition. That’s certainly not going on here.
