Ugh, please don't start saying that Hitler was "neurodivergent." It feeds into the stereotype that all autistic people are obsessed with trains.

Yeah, pretty sure that "Admin" was Epstein himself. They write the same way, lots of commas and two spaces after punctuation.

"Dog that hasn't barked is Trump." Well, can you blame him, considering Noem is in his cabinet?

I don't know what "I'm 75% there" means, but it's too close to "Don't stop I'm almost there" for my liking

Epstein became a huge story in part because he *was* convicted of sex crimes but still got super lenient treatment in prison, and now they're doing the exact same thing with his girlfriend/co-conspirator?!

So far the elected or govt. officials who have shared the incredibly dubious claims accusing a Capitol police officer of being the J6 pipe bomber are: Thomas Massie (R-KY)--shared more than once Anaa Paulina Luna (R-Fla) Eli Crane (R-AZ) Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) Ed Martin (deleted) Kari Lake

People often say "This works on so many levels" when they just mean "This is apropos."

I am not a lawyer but The Blaze story accusing a former Capitol Police officer of being the January pipe bomber hits a lot of the hard to achieve qualifications for a defamation case: -A non famous person being accused of a serious crime -Previous motivation to go after her, she's been harassed/

Every ICE agent's name should be made a matter of public record. Beyond the policy fixes that must come, I want people to be afraid to work for an agency like this.

I was a weirdly precocious news junkie child in the aftermath of 9/11, but I don't remember this at all. TLDR: serial pipe bomber who was also in a (locally) successful Minnesota grunge band called "Apathy" (2002)

This right here, this exact sentence, is THE problem in American political journalism. The IRA *was* cheap energy and good jobs! That was the whole bill! Democrats did precisely what political pundits are telling them to do and the pundits just ignore it.

SCOOP: The Trump administration acknowledged they don’t know the identities of the people they’re killing; can’t meet the evidentiary burden to prosecute survivors; and consider those survivors to be “unprivileged belligerents." theintercept.com/2025/10/31/t...

God: I'm sorry Usha, but your husband told you the rules. You're going to hell now. JD: The rules were, you weren't gonna fact check.

Update: The charges against Larry Bushart Jr have been dropped! About time.

LATEST: We're identifying several far-right figures involved in the neo-Nazi magazine Rope Culture, including a Canadian Nazi podcaster-turned-Orthodox priest, a Danish black metal musician, and a notorious American pedophile and failed political candidate.

The second part of our investigation into the neo-Nazi Rope Culture web server has everything you could ask for: a Nazi arrested for child pornography, a painting by a Nazi leader, a Nazi editor getting mad at a Nazi writer for sloppy writing, and Facebook amplifying a Nazi website.

If I ever get an interview with Chotiner, I'm just gonna say "No, YOU'RE stupid!" and storm off before he can get a question in.

Do you have, or know of, an interesting dataset related to the far-right that you wish was easier to navigate? Let us know and we'll do our best to help! Making data more accessible to journalists, researchers, and the general public is an important part of Decoherence Media's mission.

As part of our investigation into the Rope Culture web server, we created a search interface for Nazi forum scrapes and leaked databases called FashyLeaks. Currently it includes the Iron March and Rope Culture datasets, with many more to come.

This is the first in a 3 part series investigating the Rope Culture web server, parts 2 and 3 drop this week. Read all of our articles on our website, and view the Rope Culture data on fashyleaks.com. If you want to support us, you can subscribe or make a tax-deductible donation.

We’ve made the Rope Culture database, as well as the previously leaked Iron March database, searchable through a data interface we’ve developed called FashyLeaks. We’ve published a guide and a video version of the guide that shows you how to use it.

We found the exposed web server of Rope Culture, a neo-Nazi online magazine from the same Nazis behind the notorious Iron March forum. It contains hundreds of email addresses of the site’s commenters, emails sent to & from their mail server & the IP address of every visit to the site.

I'm excited but a bit sad to announce that I've left Bellingcat to start a nonprofit investigative outlet focused on the far-right. We're called Decoherence Media, and we're launching today.

My friend Tristan Lee just launched a new media outlet, give him some clicks!!!

I feel like child actors will be replaced with AI children, and it'll be the "Trojan horse" to normalize AI actors. Child actors are difficult to work with, so there's a purely capitalistic incentive. And child actors tend to have awful lives, so it's hard to clutch pearls over AI replacement.

Micah Bock followed a bunch of Antifa accounts. My ego is telling me that he's doing it as a preemptive deflection from all the nazi accounts that I found him following: "Yeah, I follow Decline Enjoyer -No Joggers, so what? I also follow Antifa accounts, does that make me a leftist?"

Man, the immediate aftermath of 9/11 was a wild time.

listen we all know how to solve this make 👏 Platner 👏 do 👏 an 👏 interview 👏 with 👏 Chotiner 👏

Alright, well this actually got decent traction so maybe it won't be a recurring segment. The message "DHS Deputy Assistant Secretary for Strategic Communications Micah Bock follows a lot of white supremacist accounts" seems to have been received.

Is there anyone tracking the outed white supremacist / neo-Nazi connections within TPUSA / Young Republicans / GOP staffers? Throwing some into a thread. Reply with ones you can think of.

I might just make "White supremacist accounts followed by DHS Deputy Assistant Secretary for Strategic Communications Micah Bock" a daily event at this point. He follows 4,576 accounts on Twitter and most seem to be along these lines. I don't think I'm gonna run out anytime soon.

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

Over on the bad site, the House Homeland Security Committee Democrats account said "If you praise Adolf Hitler you shouldn’t be allowed to work in the federal government" in response to my latest story about an ICE prosecutor who runs a white supremacist X account—and may still work for the agency

I found yet more white supremacist accounts followed by DHS Deputy Assistant Secretary for Strategic Communications Micah Bock. Starting to get a bad feeling about this guy.

Someone has not been watching Mitchell and Webb

How was Lindsey Halligan not aware of the Scaramucci/New Yorker debacle from 2017? Ideally, she'd know to say "this is off the record" regardless. It's just especially alarming that she's unaware of another Trump surrogate making the exact same mistake less than a decade ago.

This seems plausible. I think Trump likes pardons and commutations because he just likes the ceremony of signing stuff, and they don't get him jammed up in the courts the way that EOs often do. He's like someone who goes to the movie theater without really caring what's playing. But with pardons

Oh my GOD.

EXCLUSIVE: Embattled Trump nominee Paul Ingrassia told Republicans that the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday should be “tossed into the seventh circle of hell” and that he has “a Nazi streak,” according to a group chat viewed by POLITICO.

“There’s a lot of secrecy and game playing right now. I’m sick of it.” New from @stevanzetti.bsky.social: The Observer has repeatedly requested an update from ICE about James Rodden’s employment. Three members of Congress have also demanded answers, without results.

NEW: ICE remains mum regarding prosecutor exposed as white supremacist. "They want to signal to the other white supremacists...out there that under this administration things are going to be different and you’re not going to have to worry about losing your job" www.texasobserver.org/ice-white-su...

BREAKING: Congressman Marc Veasey just arrived for an unannounced visit at the Dallas ICE field office to demand accountability regarding multiple unanswered congressional inquiries his office has sent to the agency.

Yeah, Micah Bock follows pretty much every prominent Twitter nazi. I think he's a pretty decent guess for the person behind the DHS Twitter account.

Micah Bock, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Strategic Communications at DHS, follows all of the howlingmutant0 tribute accounts

Got into Uber and driver was playing "Otherside" by Red Hot Chili Peppers. Figured it was just a 90s station or something, but RHCP songs kept coming, and I think I heard him sing along to that "Snow" song. Gave 1 star and reported for sexual harassment

I know that "Whoa, JD Vance is following a nazi account" is barely noteworthy anymore, but this one made me do a double take. All of the other nazi accounts he follows are over 100k followers, I'm wondering how he even became aware of this one.

Well, I guess JD Vance technically no longer follows Captive Dreamer.
