If you heard my @TheLoopcast interview, *this* is what I couldn’t talk about - but thank God, it’s now public.
The story of the DOJ counterterrorism official, Philly cop — and Neo Nazi band (no joke: “Arresting Officer’) member. progressive.org/magazine/lone-…

Link to that interview on Metzger’s Operation Appleseed - the decades-long white supremacist strategy of police & military infiltration.
Haughton’s just *one* of the alleged ‘few bad apples’ we hear so much about— now in DOJ counterterrorism.
Tom Metzger planted an orchard.
My interview above is much more into the weeds of Tom Metzger himself, and his pioneering role in this strategy.
For more general background about white supremacist infiltration, here’s a piece I wrote about the problem after January 6:
I’m going to keep screaming it from the rooftops, because what coverage of this story keeps missing: the Neo Nazi infiltration strategy here.
Brian Haughton — DOJ counterterrorism official, ex cop, skinhead musician — has ties to Tom Metzger.
That’s important (scroll up).
