They've passed through security. Here's scene inside Capitol (from stream).

White nationalist Nick Fuentes, Trumpworld operative Ali Alexander and conspiracy theorist/far-Right propagandist Alex Jones at center of event. Image
Alex Jones giving a speech
Deleted an earlier tweet, but this was Alex Jones arriving in about an hour ago. Image
There were brief speeches a little while ago. They're currently just milling around inside the Capitol.

"I assume at some stage we're going to go deeper inside" says livestreamer.
From stream: State Rep. Vernon Jones is speaking. Image
Needless to say: even with a State Rep around, protesters against police brutality would not be getting this sort of red carpet treatment at the Capitol.
From stream: core organizers inside the Capitol.

Far-Right propagandist Alex Jones & organizer Ali Alexander gave brief speeches.

They're now heading back outside. Image
From a bit earlier: Enrique Tarrio, leader of the far-Right Proud Boys, also at Capitol. Image
One of the rally participants dropped their shiv before the crowd entered the Capitol. Image
Hearing everything has disbanded at Capitol.
The anti-election results crowd -- including white nationalist leader Nick Fuentes and other far-Right figures -- will be back at the Capitol tomorrow, Friday and for a bigger event Saturday.
White nationalist Simon Dickerman was in the crowd at the Capitol today.

Dickerman also attended the Atlanta protest on November 7 against undesirable votes.

Looks like white nationalist Nick Fuentes led a march through downtown after the Capitol.

Footage is being circulated on racist social media channels. Image

(THREAD) Okay, let's talk about the "preacher" group at Stone Mountain, Georgia on August 15th.

You may have already guessed that they were racists. As it turns out, they have deep ties to white nationalist versions of Christianity.
The five who showed up are tied to a Facebook & Instagram page called “Free Patriots Forever”.

That page shares Conservative and anti-BLM material, but also white power and antisemitic content. For example, FPB promotes the Protocols of the Elders of Zion antisemitic forgery.
On Instagram, Free Patriots Forever posted a picture of an anti-integration protest and asked rhetorically “Were these people wrong? You tell me.”

Nobody felt the need to answer. The post got several likes.

Jan Warren Dupree is a white supremacist in Florida who is helping to organize the Aug 15 far-Right rally at Stone Mountain outside Atlanta.

Dupree is helping the "Confederate States III%" militia with their planning. CSIII% are major organizers for 8/15.
Image
We have already noted that Dupree posts antisemitic content in the "CS III% Recruiting Page" private Facebook group with the approval of the militia's leaders.
On the Stormfront white power forum, Dupree is user "Thunderbird88", an account created last month.

At present, this account has made sixteen posts, the vast majority of them being about August 15th on Stone Mountain.

The "88" in Dupree's user name is code for "Heil Hitler". ImageImage

(THREAD) With the racist/far-Right rallies approaching next Saturday, August 15, let's discuss how Stone Mountain Park has served as a focal point for far-Right organizers in recent years.
Obviously, Stone Mountain has a much longer racist history. It was the birthplace of the modern Ku Klux Klan.

The State of Georgia purchased the site as a display of defiance toward the Civil Rights movement.

History: web.archive.org/web/2016031502… Image
We'll start with the Rock Stone Mountain rally in April 2016.

A rather arbitrary starting point: RSM was preceded by 2015 pro-Confederate rallies at the Park following the Charleston massacre.

RSM was a clear white power rally & met fierce resistance.

(THREAD) Admins for two private FB groups, "Confederate States III%" & "Heritage Not Hate", are behind one of the main calls for far-Right rallies at Stone Mountain, 8/15.

We recently documented CSIII/HNH's links to the white power scene. Here are more racists in their FB groups
Michael Carl Barber of Brunswick, Georgia is in both the CSIII% and HNH private groups as "Carl Barber". ImageImageImage
Barber's Facebook contains the "Fourteen Words" white power slogan authored by neo-Nazi terrorist David Lane (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Lan…).

The profile also contains an image featuring a death's head and a celtic cross with the word "Whiter". This is blatant white supremacist stuff. ImageImage
