#NeoNazi group ‘actively seeking to grow in #US’ with planned #paramilitary training event
#TheBase is emerging from shadows and ramping up its ranks as White House turns blind eye to the far right
Ben Makuch, Sat 7 Jun 2025
"An international neo-Nazi terrorist organization is boldly continuing to build in the US and planning a new paramilitary training event without fear of local authorities or the FBI, which once dismantled it in a nationwide effort.
"The Base, founded in 2018 by a former Pentagon contractor living in #Russia and now suspected of Kremlin-sponsored espionage, once boasted close to 50 stateside members before the bureau made more than a dozen arrests in a years-long counter-terrorism operation.
"But since the presidential election campaign last year and what many then believed to be a surefire victory for Donald Trump, the Base saw an opportunity in a potential administration uninterested in policing #WhiteSupremacy and went about ramping up its ranks.
"Now, the Base has a presence in #Ukraine, performing #sabotage operations inside the country against the embattled government, and new and dangerous cells emerging across Europe, and it appears to be growing in the US, where the FBI under the #Maga acolyte #KashPatel has signalled it isn’t prioritizing investigations of #FarRightExtremism.
"In its early history, part of what first piqued the interest of authorities was the Base’s courting of military veterans who could help drill its foot soldiers in a series of training camps across the US. Eventually implicated in an assassination plot, mass shootings and other actions in Europe, the Base went so far as to have a fortified compound and cell in #Michigan, led by a US army dropout.
"Online evidence from its various accounts, several of which live on #RussianServers to avoid censorship on American sites, shows the Base has real plans for a national gathering this summer where members intend to train in paramilitary drills as in years past.
" 'The Base in [the] USA is preparing for an upcoming national training event,' reads one of its recent posts soliciting crypto donations. 'This one might be our most attended training event in [the] USA in a while. We could really use some financial support to help our members with travel expenses.'
"The post continued: 'When you donate money to the Base, you’re investing in a #WhiteDefenseForce that’s aiming to protect white people from political persecution and physical destruction.'
"The Base then published a new photo of armed members claiming to be in the #midwest, which follows a trend in 2025 of the group bragging about its unafraid American presence. As a sort of taunt to its enemies, on the day of Trump’s inauguration the Base released a photo of four members somewhere in Appalachia, in what was the largest number of American members in one photo in over a year.
" 'The upcoming national training event indicates that the group is seeking to grow and is willing to take the risk of advertising it publicly in advance,' said Joshua Fisher-Birch, an analyst of #FarRightTerrorism who has been following the Base’s movements for close to a decade. 'The Base appears to be actively seeking to grow in the US.'
"Fisher-Birch notes that even if the gathering involves 'fewer than 20 people', it is by no means 'low profile' and suggests the group sees momentum is on its side.
" 'An event entails planning, coordination, travel and face-to-face meetings between different regional groups, indicating that they operate in an environment where they view the potential amount of risk as acceptable,' he said. 'The group has previously stated multiple times that being a member or training with them is a risky endeavor; however, planning a meetup, which they will inevitably use for propaganda purposes, is a different approach than even a year ago, when the group advertised regional activities.'
"In response to queries about the Base’s latest movements, the FBI told the Guardian that it only investigates people who have or are planning to commit a federal crime and pose 'a threat to national security'." [Of course Patel's FBI won't take action against #VeryFinePeople!]

"He believed democracy was under siege from groups the FBI has said pose a major domestic terrorism threat. So he infiltrated the militia movement on spec, as a freelance vigilante. He did not tell the police or the FBI. A loner, he did not tell his family or friends."

Today in Labor History October 27, 2006: U.S. anarchist activist and journalist, Brad Will, was murdered by a government-affiliated paramilitary while covering the teachers’ strike in Oaxaca, Mexico. He was affiliated with Indymedia. In the 1990s, he worked as a teaching assistant to Peter Lamborn Wilson (a.k.a. Hakim Bey). He later moved to a squat in New York’s Lower East Side. He once participated in a protest against a proposed amendment to the Colorado constitution that sought to curtail gay rights, by pretending to marry another man, dressed in drag, with a parade in front of a Promise Keepers event in Boulder, Colorado. He was also active in Earth First, pirate radio, and other causes.
@JessTheUnstill @Penguinflight @RickiTarr maybe it's due to #LackOfAccountability, #LackOfConsequences andbthe fact that the #Police in many juristictions act as a sort-of #paramilitary to beat #workers in line?

#Maine Town Drives Out ‘#BloodTribe’ #Nazi Encampment
MOVE ON OUT
A #WhiteSupremacist group bought up land in rural Maine for a headquarters. Months after their location was revealed, they’ve sold the property.
"'We made the decision to sell the 10 acres that was in my name up here,' he wrote. 'With the militant leftist #doxing the location, it was basically too dangerous to fulfill its purpose to be a safe space for families to make the transition up here. People were coming up there all the time, snooping and getting very brazen, even driving down into the clearing.'
"But Maine lawmakers had previously warned that the compound’s residents posed a potential risk to locals. 'We have a problem with Nazis coming to set up a military-style camp,' Maine State Sen. Joe Baldacci told The Daily Beast in August, noting that he was proposing a law like one on the books in #Vermont, where #paramilitary-style training facilities are banned."
