When nazis organize as though borders don't actually matter:

Members of Canada's biggest white nationalist group trained this spring with U.S. counterparts south of the border and met with the founder of a global movement of fascist fight clubs, a CBC visual investigation has found.

One expert called it a "very significant" signal of closer co-ordination between white supremacist groups on both sides of the border.

A Telegram post with blurred faces shows Second Sons Canada members posing with an individual CBC identified as Robert Rundo, an American neo-Nazi who founded the "active club" movement. Other posts show them training and meeting with active club groups in Texas and South Carolina in late March.

"It's very significant that we're seeing Canadians travel across the border," said Steven Rai, senior research manager at the Institute for Strategic Dialogue, a U.K.-based think-tank dedicated to studying authoritarianism, hate and extremism.

Really good and thorough article covering a nazi fight club gathering in Lynchburg, Virginia, and digging into the backgrounds of the participants. It includes info on nazi brawlers from at least six different states, so check it out and see if there's one near you.

New report outing Burlingame, California, resident Andrew Vellis. Vellis has a pretty broad resume in neo-fascism: he's a member of the NorCal Active Club, White Lives Matter, and Patriot Front; an admin for various social media outlets supporting imprisoned Austrian neo-nazi Philip Josef Hassler (better known as "parody" propagandist Mr. Bond); and a vocal supporter of the Greek neo-nazi organization (and former political party) Golden Dawn.

Vellis is also a student at San Francisco State, an altar boy at the Greek Orthodox Annunication Cathedral in San Francisco, and has worked with the San Mateo Police Activities League. Finally, he at least claims to work for Active Club founder Rob Rundo's apparel company Will2Rise.

Vellis is an all-around booster of mass killing and nazi terror and people around him should know.

In one sense, the existence of "far-right influences among Project 2025 applicants" might be the most obvious thing I've ever posted on social media.

On the other hand, the details are pretty interesting. For all the managerial ineptitude of the Trump administration, the continuity between it and leaders in both the intellectual and on-the-ground brawler contingents of far-right activism in the US is striking. Some of the people mentioned here cite Carl Schmitt (albeit in the most superficial way possible), use jargon like "Heritage Americans," and talk about a left-wing "all out war" on the right, thereby justifying all-out reciprocity.

Others point to the influence Jared Taylor has had on their thinking. Taylor (I like to call him "Nazi Thurston Howell," but that's just me) is best known as the leading figure behind the American Renaissance website and the annual white nationalist conference by the same name, but he has also been a spokesman for the Council of Conservative Citizens, in which capacity he helped inspire the 2015 white supremacist mass shooting in a Black church in Charleston, South Carolina, which left nine people dead. Taylor has also more recently been openly cavorting with members of Patriot Front as well as "active club" founder Rob Rundo.

This article doesn't delve too deeply into it, but it also hints at reaffirming antisemitism as a (maybe "the") major fault line within the US far right today. Several of the people mentioned here are at least very comfortable with some pretty deeply antisemitic ideas. However Taylor, for instance, says he opposes antisemitism and has been very open to the ideas and participation of far-right Jews in white nationalist spaces, and members of the Heritage Foundation have clearly taken a "philo-semitic" position in a variety of areas.

Anyways, like I said, nothing earth-shattering or all that surprising here, but I do think it's important to keep tabs on the details of just what kind of "leadership" we're all being subjected to. Worth reading.

The white nationalist hate group Patriot Front is trying to boost recruitment by secretly controlling a large swath of the active clubs network, according to audio messages and a leaked document posted to Telegram that Hatewatch verified.

The audio messages and leaked document reveal that Patriot Front is the hidden hand behind about a dozen active clubs across the country. The leaked document, which appears to be an internal report created to update Patriot Front leadership on a new recruitment tactic, refers to these active clubs as “subsidiary recruitment projects.” Other active clubs are referred to as “cooperative” and “highly cooperative.”

...

Over the last several years, Hatewatch has monitored the close relationship between some active clubs and Patriot Front. The leaked document corroborates Hatewatch’s observations and provides a detailed look at how these relationships reflect Patriot Front’s changing tactics as its brand has faced setbacks. For example, in a Feb. 4, 2024, post to Telegram about an anti-LGBTQ+ rally, an active club chapter refers to being “alongside” Patriot Front at the event. However, the document shows that Patriot Front directly controls the active club chapter that participated, which suggests that Patriot Front organized the rally.

The inclusion of an active clubs chapter to what is essentially a Patriot Front rally raises questions about whether these active club members knew they were being groomed by Patriot Front leadership. It also suggests a new strategy Patriot Front has implemented to compete for recruits as the group faces criticism and suspicion from powerful far-right influencers. Some have claimed the group is full of undercover federal agents or is otherwise collaborating with federal law enforcement — a common accusation in the paranoid world of the organized white power movement.

"In his decision, [judge] Carney granted the defendants’ motion to dismiss, agreeing that #Rundo and Boman were being selectively prosecuted, while “far-left extremist groups, such as Antifa” were not."

Wait, WHAT???
