History[]
Frank is a leading voice in the Five/Nine truther movement, which claims that the financial crisis is an elaborate sham. According to Frank, fsociety's attack on E-Corp, the subsequent economic meltdown, and the union strike at Comet Electric are all elements of a conspiracy steered by paid "crisis actors", with the intention of instituting a totalitarian state. (“eps2.0_unm4sk-pt1.tc”) These theories have a significant following among the extreme right wing of the political spectrum, and have sparked protests and rallies. (“eps1.91_redwheelbarr0w.txt”) In one case, Frank's allegations have even incited violent action: in June, a truther identifying himself as Brock shot and killed Gideon Goddard.

Frank and his program are part of the Dark Army. Frank is ordered by the Whiterose to rehabilitate the image of Tyrell Wellick, put the origins of fsociety in Iran, and support Donald Trump for president. (“eps3.2_legacy.so”)
