This fourth installment in the @anoncomrades expose of the White Art Collective is a family affair and will be delivered in two parts. @161Partisan, @utah161, @utrresearch, and various anonymous comrades serve it up family style. STRONG CONTENT WARNING

1/ Meet neo-Nazi activist Jamie Ryan Troutman (aka James Ryan/AltRightVA/AltAntiochus/ seen here participating in the January 6th 2021 insurrection in Washington, DC. He is from Alexandria, Virginia but currently lives in the Harpers Ferry/Charles Town area of West Virginia.

2/ We promised a family affair, 33-year-old Jamie Troutman and his younger brother Brandon were obnoxious mainstays at numerous “Alt-Right" public appearances in the Washington vicinity. Brandon Troutman aka ManWithTheHand is getting his own comeuppance separately, stay tuned.

3/ Keeping to the family affair theme, at the January 6th, 2021 insurrection Jamie Ryan Troutman is joined by his wife Crystal Sabra Kingree Troutman. We don't know why @crystalkingree's Twitter account got suspended, but we can probably guess. She has been at this a while too.

4/ Jamie Ryan Troutman is an actual bonafide Nazi. His participation in the violent J6 insurrection is illustrative of the increasingly fascistic Republican right's growing acceptance of racism, antisemitism, and neo-Nazism. #SeditionHunters @SeditionHunters @CapitolHunters

5/ In leaked Discord chats from 2017, Jamie Ryan Troutman aka AltRightVA spoke of donning Trump regalia for recruitment and spreading Alt-Right Neo-Nazi messaging.

6/ Jamie Ryan Troutman has used numerous aliases on social media including James Ryan, AltRightVA, OpFrogPrince, and AltHenryHIggins.

7/ Several of Jamie Troutman's user names paid tribute to the Syrian king Antiochus IV whose attempts to eradicate Judaism have made him one of the historical villains of the Hanukkah traditions.

8/ Being mindful of accusations of excessively generous use of the term “Nazi,” let’s do a quick check to make sure it fits in the case of Jamie Ryan Troutman.

9/ Yup, Jamie Ryan Troutman aka AltRightVA/ James Ryan sure looks like a Nazi to us.

10/ Jamie Ryan Troutman has previously been identified by name in multiple media outlets in relation to his neo-Nazi activism. He appeared with face uncovered at events and used his real picture on social media.

11/ Jamie Troutman aka AltRIght VA was involved in regional groups including the Beltway Bigots & DC Stormers and rubbed shoulders with “movement leaders” like Richard Spencer & Michael Peinovich aka Mike Enoch, and neo-Confederate political candidate Corey Stewart.

12/ Forner KKK leader David Duke has long been the most identifiable face of the American white supremacist movement. Jamie Troutman boosted his content and was gleeful when the octogenarian Nazi followed him on Twitter.

13/ Jamie Troutman and his brother Brandon were close friends with Jeffery and William Clark, another set of young DC area Nazi brothers whose total immersion in the Alt-Right and Nazism tragically ended prison and suicide. pbs.org/wgbh/frontline…

14/ Here are the Clark brothers and Jamie Troutman causing trouble at a book reading in Washington. The Clark brothers also collaborated with crypto-Nazi Jack Posobiec. itsgoingdown.org/nazis-fail-att…

15/ Jamie Troutman was involved in the first Unite the Right rally and torch march in Charlottesville in May 2017. This was a much smaller invitation only event and attendance indicates a certain connectedness and stature within the "movement."

16/ Jamie Ryan Troutman aka AltrightVA was a fixture at numerous regional rallies and protests including the “Free Speech Rally” in Washington, DC on June 25, 2017.

17/ The event was a deceptively named white nationalist and neo-Nazi rally featuring speakers like Richard Spencer and groups like Identity Evropa and Vanguard America.

18/ Jamie Ryan Troutman also repeatedly attempted to broker an alliance with the increasingly optics sensitive Proud Boys. While the Proud Boys officially distanced themselves from explicit Nazi and white supremacist associations, their rank and file members were less shy.

19/ Jamie Troutman was heavily involved in planning for the violent Unite the Right rally in August 2017 and his name appeared several times in the subsequent legal proceedings.

20/ Jamie Troutman returned to Charlottesville for the ill-advised and poorly attended Unite the Right 3.0. This event was basically a very sad flash mob attempt to further terrorize the community.
Seriously, NOBODY attended this pathetic shitshow, not even Jason Kessler!

21/ The sad spectacle of a couple dozen die-hard Nazis singing “Dixie” on a rented bus seems a fitting memorialization of the sad, sputtering demise of the “Alt-Right” era incarnation of white nationalism and Nazism.

22/ But what does this have to do with music and the White Art Collective? An interesting bit of trivia is that, around the time of the Unite the Rally, White Art Collective founder Ben Arvin was living in Arlington, VA. Wanna guess who his roommate was?

23/ In a 2018 article about by WAC founder Ben Arvin, he mentioned an obscure song called “Deserae” by an equally obscure artist named “James Ryan.”

24/ The song itself proved elusive at first but the photo accompanying the now-deleted artist page on the White Art Collective website sure looked familiar.

25/ “James Ryan” was one the artists featured at the first “WAC Fest” in 2021. The song “Deserae” was played in response to a shouted request from the crowd. vocaroo.com/11bX80FseizW

26/ The same song appears performed by The Revolujahs, a cool wandering hippie troupe that Jamie Troutman was involved with prior to becoming a Nazi douchebag. They are surely glad to be rid of him!
We will revisit this part of his life later. soundcloud.com/therevolujahs/…

27/ Deeper digging turns up several versions of the song including this one from 2011 showing a much younger & apparently NOT very prolific Jamie Ryan Troutman and his microwave oven.

28/ JFC, Same song 2008! This dude needs some new material

29/ Prior to becoming a Nazi, Jamie Ryan Troutman wandered the country as a hippie troubadour. His social media posts at the time were antiracist, pro-immigrant, and supportive of LGBTQ rights.

30/ In 2011 "itinerant 22-year-old artist and musician" Jamie Ryan Troutman was featured in multiple media outlets as one of the public faces of Occupy DC. huffpost.com/entry/occupy-d…

31/ Jamie Ryan Troutman: a study in contrasts:

32/ The Occupy to Nazi pipeline is not unheard of, but Jamie Ryan Troutman's six year evolution from social justice warrior to actual fascist is one of the most jarring we have encountered.

33/ Perhaps Jamie Ryan Troutman's commitment to social and economic justice faltered due to his own circumstances as a child of privilege. His family owns Troutman Custom Homes, a luxury building business in Arlington, VA.

34/ Does bigotry run in the family business? On June 8, 2016 Jamie Troutman posted to a Nazi chat on behalf of Troutman Custom Homes :
"Looking for white sub-contractors in the residential home building trades, located around the Washington DC Beltway. We build custom homes."

35/ Nurture or Nature? Jamie Troutman's parents are divorced but his mother's Facebook is full of deranged boomer posting of biblical prophecy, Q Anon references, & a review criticizing "Woke Liberal Walmart" for refusing to stock "My Pillow." WOKE. LIBERAL. WALMART.

36/ At the time of his dark spiral into Nazism, Jamie Ryan Troutman was establishing himself as a photographer specializing in real estate and architecture. Apparently believing himself beyond accountability, he used the same headshots for his professional and Nazi profiles!

37/ As a Nazi activist, Jamie Ryan Troutman was brazen with his public persona but in recent years has taken several steps to mask his identity. His Facebook profile gives his first name as "Johan" and misspells his surname as "Trautmann."

38/ His previous photo business is defunct but Stone Ridge Photography's website lists a "James" Troutman as CEO instead of Jamie. Along with real estate, the new company has added food & restaurant photography to its' services and claims @UberEats & @Grubhub as clients

39/ It appears that racist and antisemitic Nazi photographer Jamie Ryan Troutman's family business Troutman Custom Homes is still a big client as the website features numerous photos of Troutman Custom Homes properties.

40/ Jamie “James“ Troutman lists his new business as “Veteran” owned. Apparently, he signed up for the Army National Guard in 2018 as a “Horizontal Construction Engineer” and was “activated” In March of 2020 to serve in the “Coronavirus emergency response.”

41/ Jamie Ryan Troutman was an enlisted Army National Guard member on January 6, 2021 when he was part of an insurrectionist mob that stormed the Capitol. @SeditionHunters @CapitolHunters #seditionhunters

42/ While an enlisted member of the Army National Guard, Jamie Ryan Troutman aka James Ryan/AltRightVA remained involved in white nationalist and neo-Nazi activities including performing at the neo-Nazi White Art Collective’s music festival and the violent J6 insurrection.

43/ The National Socialism to National Guard pipeline is a symptom of a problem afflicting all branches of the military. The Department of Defense order DoDI 1325.06 is a very clear prohibition on military personnel participating in extremist activities.
esd.wh.mil/Portals/54/Doc…

44/ Given the public nature and the breadth of his neo-Nazi activities, it is very troubling that Jamie Ryan Troutman was able to pass the military background checks and interviews designed to screen out extremists. Lies were likely told...

45/ Jamie Ryan Troutman appears in NUMEROUS photos and videos that show him participating in neo-Nazi and white nationalist rallies. It is important to note that he was not a misguided shitposting teenager, he was in his late 20s when he became a Nazi activist.

46/ Jamie Troutman was definitely on the Alt-Right A-List, frequently accompanying Richard Spencer, Mike Enoch, Eli Mosley, etc.

47/ Another close associate of Jamie Troutman was Nazi psychopath Brandon Higgs of Maryland who is currently serving a 25 year sentence for attempted murder in a racist shooting. huffpost.com/entry/brandon-…

48/ Jamie Ryan Troutman of Stone Ridge Photography Harpers Ferry, West Virginia is a virulent racist, antisemite, bigot, and neo-Nazi activist who operates Stone Ridge Photography in Charles Town, WV.

49/ Jamie Ryan Troutman, the owner of Stone RIdge Photography in Charles Town, WV is an antisemite, racist, Nazi and utter garbage person.

50/ Using several different aliases, Jamie Ryan Troutman of Harpers Ferry, WV has been a prominent neo-Nazi activist and propagandist since at least 2016. Fuck this guy.

51/ Harpers Ferry, WV Nazi Jamie Ryan Troutman talks of "race war" and has posed with guns on several occasions so the violent nature of his ideology must be considered when encountering him.

52/ Before we close, let's take a moment to appreciate a wandering itinerant musician and artist of a different stripe. All you fascists bound to lose.
