THREAD: 1/ Vincent James Foxx (lower left), who hosts the white nationalist podcast "Red Elephants," is mentioned by Stephen Baker aka "Ignoramus" in his livestream from the Capitol insurrection. Baker told his followers: "Red Elephant is right at the door." #CapitolRiots

2/ 38 seconds later, Baker says, "And Vincent James was like one of the first people in, I'm almost positive." It's noteworthy that Vincent James Foxx is on the FBI's radar. If there's hard evidence that he did indeed storm the Capitol, it likely spells legal trouble for him.

3/ Vincent James Foxx is one of the leading voices of the white nationalist right that is working to radicalize disillusioned Trumpers since the Jan. 6 insurrection. His Telegram channel has 32,352 subscribers. #CapitolRiots

4/ Following the Jan. 6 insurrection, Foxx received an invitation to address College Republicans United at Arizona State University. His Jan. 25 speech is instructive about how far-right organizers are attempting to push the Trump movement in a more explicitly fascist direction.

5/ Here Foxx makes an explicit white nationalist appeal by condemning Democrats for "disgusting anti-American and anti-white rhetoric" & upbraiding Republicans for sanctioning Rep. Steve King, who questioned why "white supremacist" should be considered an offensive term.

6/ Sharpening his white grievance argument, James Vincent Foxx warns that an "electoral winter induced by the demographic change in this country is fast approaching." #CapitolRiots

7/ Considering that Foxx is addressing a group named "College Republicans United," it might seem ironic that he's calling for the destruction of the Republican Party. #CapitolRiots

8/ While attacking the GOP, Foxx promotes "America First," a slogan Trump himself borrowed from Nazi sympathizers who tried to keep the US out of World War II. It's worth noting that GOP insiders are also embracing the slogan, as shown in this email from a local party chair in NC

9/ This is not a fight over principles so much as a competition btw GOP insiders & insurgents over who can push the Trump movement to the right the fastest. Foxx is sounding a call for fascism — purifying the GOP ranks & supplanting it w/ "loyalists, true believers, nationalists"
