'Patriarchy Hannah': A disturbing deep dive into a tradwife fraud —  and why it matters



“Patriarchy Hannah” was a prominent account on the social media platform X that promoted the “tradwife” lifestyle as well as the “patriarchy."

Now, she's been exposed as one of the worst catfishes the internet has ever seen.

The account grew a large following as the woman behind the account, who called herself Hannah, posted regularly about women lacking discernment compared to men and how she was a subservient housewife to her husband, Tony, with whom she was allegedly raising 14 children.

“Women act like having children is an excuse to gain weight, and it’s not. I have 14 children & never lost my figure once,” she wrote in a post on X.

“People are appalled that my husband has a weight range that he expects me to stay in, but what they don’t know is that if he doesn’t work out for two days, I start giving him a hard time. The couple that fat shames together, stays attractive together,” she wrote in another post on X.


While “Patriarchy Hannah” had thousands of X users fooled, one user took it upon himself to investigate her claims as he grew suspicious of their veracity.

The user, Ryan Duff, alleged that “Patriarchy Hannah” was actually a 37-year-old single and childless woman named Jennifer Bays, who “Hannah” had insisted was her cousin. Even more interesting, the birthday “Hannah” had celebrated on X was the same as Bays’ birthday.

Further investigation into Bays revealed that when she was younger, she was arrested on charges of identity theft and theft.

But the tangled web she has woven only gets worse.

“She has a brother/sister,” says Allie Beth Stuckey of “Relatable,” who was criticized by “Patriarchy Hannah” on X numerous times. “This is someone, apparently a woman who identifies as a man, was arrested two years ago for exposing children to pornography, which is really sad.”

It has also been revealed that “Patriarchy Hannah’s” alleged husband does not exist, and the acreage she claimed to own and build homes on for each of her children was not hers either. Rather, the land was her parents'.

“Now, the question is, why does this really matter?” Stuckey says. “Does it really matter that this person was apparently faking this entire persona? Well, one, she was mentoring women, she had influence over women, and women listened to her, and women maybe even compared themselves to her or felt that they had to reach her standards of what it meant to be a godly wife and mother.”

“She built a brand upon having a large family with one income and claimed they made it work, and again, she set these standards that weren’t even real,” she continues. “And the worst part of it is that she used Christianity to spread her lie. She used the gospel, she used Scripture, she used her faith to try to push the idea that the only way to be a godly, biblical woman is to be her version of a patriarchy woman.”

Leftist ideologue claims she successfully sabotaged right-wing dating site, having catfished then reported users to FBI



The prospect of a popular right-wing dating app where like-minded people could meet up so enraged one leftist, she donned a false persona and set about the ruin of the men thereon seeking love.

Caitlin Berg claimed on TikTok that she found her way onto the invite-only app, the Right Stuff, by playing a "yeehaw'd version" of herself, reported the Daily Mail.

The Right Stuff touts itself as an app whereon conservatives can "connect in authentic and meaningful ways."

"Other dating apps have gone woke," says the company's site. "We bring people together with shared values and similar passions."

The app was founded by John McEntee, who served as a personal aide to former President Donald Trump, and Daniel Huff, a Trump appointee in the Department of Housing and Urban Development, reported The Hill.

PayPal co-founded and invested $1.5 million into the app, which launched in late 2022.

Users must agree not to "use information gleaned in whole or in part from the Service to harm the reputation of or cast unwanted publicity upon any other user" and not to "misrepresent your identity, age, current or previous positions, qualifications, or affiliations with a person or entity."

Berg, who in recent days has made her personal site private and ostensibly deleted her socials (including her TikTok), explained in a now-deleted TikTok video, that she had called herself Keightlynne Brandy and sent a message to the Right Stuff saying, "I just joined from NYC, but I don't have any friends on the app and can't get referred. ... As a new New Yorker, I would love the chance to meet like-minded individuals in such a liberal city."

The company provided Berg with an access code just hours later, which she used to connect with various unsuspecting individuals who had, unlike "Keightlynne Brandy," provided accurate identifying information.

The scammer used dehumanizing language to describe the individuals she encountered on the app, calling men "rodents from the depths of hell."

The Daily Mail noted that Berg's mission evolved beyond denigrating strangers after she realized that some among those looking for human connections on the app were individuals who had been at the Jan. 6, 2021, protest at the U.S. Capitol building.

Berg revealed to her TikTok followers that she began doing pro-bono snitching on behalf of the state.

She reportedly took screenshots of self-identified Jan. 6 protesters' profiles, corroborated their identities with the Instagram or LinkedIn accounts she had them link her to, then provided their information to the FBI.

One of the dating app's profile prompts, used to help characterize users for prospective suitors, appears to have made easy work for Berg's snitching.

Shawn McCreesh of New York Magazine, noted that "January 6th was ... ," "Favorite liberal lie ... ," and "Biggest risk I've ever taken ..." were among the prompts.

Some on Twitter were skeptical around of the app's launch, with one suggesting in September 2022, "This has got to be an FBI dragnet."

In October, liberal TikToker Cheyenne Hunt ridiculed a user who indicated the app might be a honeypot after he had been contacted by the FBI after using the app for "hardly an evening."

Dan Huff, the app's co-founder, told the Mail, "Leftists are attacking our app because it’s taken off in recent months. Their lives are miserable, and they can’t stand to see other people happy."

Berg indicated in a 2021 blog post that she supported then-candidates Joe Biden and Kamala Harris in 2020, looked forward to "progressive policy making," and was previously "inspired by Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign."

The dating app scammer also admitted to having been "radicalized" and failing at a career in politics only to "pursue comedy and theatre production full time."
