Political Activity

Frustrated by constantly butting heads with Democrats and other liberals, Alfonzo Rachel began creating his own political commentaries in response, uploading them on Myspace in 2007, followed by YouTube. His viewership increased, and he caught the attention of Bill Whittle, Andrew Breitbart, and Gary Sinise.

After introductions, Rachel was invited to be a contributor at Andrew Breitbart's op-ed website Big Hollywood, where he authored articles from 2009 to 2011. He also had his own series of commentaries titled "ZoNation" featured on PJ Media's video channel PJTV.com from 2009 until they ceased operations in May 2016.

Rachel was a speaker at several Tea Party movement events in various U.S. States.

He authored the audio book, Weapon of A.S.S. Destruction, published in 2012.

Alfonzo Rachel was part of the cast for the 2012 documentary Runaway Slave.

Rachel was cast as Detective Stark in the 2015 movie Gosnell: America's Biggest Serial Killer.

Following the end of PJTV and "ZoNation," Rachel began a series of commentary videos on his own Youtube channel titled "The Zo Loft," which he currently produces. He recently produced the political parody video "Sinisturbia" for the 2016 U.S. Presidential election.
