Proud Boys have been involved in attacks on Planned Parenthood for years and these events helped them forge alliances and prep for the eventual siege on the Capitol on January 6th. A few examples below.
In 2019, Proud Boy leader, Ethan Nordean, Oathkeepers, InfoWars 'personalities', and various other Far Right chuds protested against Planned Parenthood in Texas. This is the same toxic brew that stormed the Capitol on January 6th.

In 2018, Proud Boys and another Far Right group, "Patriot Prayer," attacked people who opposed the PB/PP menacing of a Planned Parenthood in Olympia.
Since January 6th, Proud Boys and allied scum have gone back to their usual MO--holding smaller events and attacking in parts of the country they feel strong in (versus trying something big in say, Washington DC. They do this to recruit, forge alliances, and gain strength.

Proud Boys marched in Nassau County on Long Island on Saturday, still trying to exploit the tragedy surrounding the car attack in Waukesha, and use it as a way to launder the group's violence (and actions on January 6th) and spin themselves as 'protectors.' ImageImage
Proud Boys are already testing "protection" as a defense strategy in court--claiming that their involvement in the January 6th storming of the Capitol was simply them "defend[ing] vulnerable protesters...not unlike what Kyle Rittenhouse did"
Meanwhile, the reality is that in the weeks and months before January 6th (and of course on Jan 6th itself), Proud Boys attacked people to further their violent, Far Right goals.

Interestingly, earlier in the week, the "Steve Bannon's War Room" Telegram channel was promoting Nick Fuentes' sad anti-vaxx groyper rally in Staten Island.

Bannon & Fuentes were all up in the Jan 6th siege on the Capitol & heavily involved in making "Stop the Steal" a thing. Screenshot from the Telegra...
There has been some *alleged* beef between Fuentes/Groypers and Bannon since January 6th. For example, one of Bannon's podcast henchmen, Raheem Kassam, publicly pointed the finger at Fuentes *after* January 6th *for* January 6th.

Nick Fuentes has been spending time in NYC w/ the Bannon-aligned NY Young Republican Club tho. Fuentes bragged on his show this week that "we met w/ a great group of republicans after church...tons of young republicans." See thread for all connections 👇

ATTENTION NYC: Tonight, NPC Fest, a shitty edgelord film festival is holding "Angelfest" a party with "veiled fascists" like Curtis Yarvin and (allegedly) Far-Right misogynist musicians like "Negative XP" on Eldridge Street (a likely Airbnb rental in the LES).

🧵Thread 🧵
Curtis Yarvin is one of the main pseudo-intellectuals peddling the neoreactionary "Dark Enlightenment" (an especially incoherent blend of authoritarianism, racism, and accelerationist capitalism), and he recently appeared on Tucker Carlson.

If you are not familiar with the neoreactionary movement, this article by @coreypein is a good introduction.

The bigot in the skull mask harassing the Holocaust Memorial Resource & Education Center of Florida is a local NYC Nazi with Proud Boy connections named Jovi Val.

He identifies himself in a forwarded message in the "Operation FlagDrop" Telegram Channel. Image
Jovi Val has stepped up his harassment of Jewish orgs in the past few months. He is the man w/ the beige scarf putting up Nazi flyers w/ the NJ European Heritage Association near Independence Hall & the National Museum of American Jewish History in Philly.
Jovi Val was also with the NJ European Heritage association when he photographed himself sieg heiling in front of the Museum of Jewish Heritage in NYC this year.

Dion Cini, a NYC-based far right grifter who compensates for his shortcomings with x-large MAGA flags, screamed "white power" at "Trumparilla" in Florida last week.
motherjones.com/politics/2021/…
Almost as if we live in a terrible farce penned by a not very good and obvious writer, Dion Cini responded to the journalist questioning him about screaming "White Power" by claiming he was trolling, that his wife is Jewish, & sending a pic of himself with a Black person.
In reality, Dion Cini, who runs "Operation Flag Drop," took credit for the defacement of the "Black Lives Matter" street mural in front of Trump Tower in Oct 2020.

In early January, Nazis skulked around NYC taking pics of themselves sieg heiling with a fascist flag.

The Nazi in the grey & black coat is Jackson Bradley, a Philly member of the New Jersey European Heritage Association who goes by "Jesse Herring" on Telegram.
Jackson Browning Bradley was identified by antifascists in 2020 as a Philly member of the Nazi group, the New Jersey European Heritage Association. The NJEHA is connected to fascist groups like Patriot Front & has heavily targeted areas in Staten Island.
Jackson Bradley, in the same grey & black coat, was also seen flyering for the NJEHA with local NYC Nazi, Jovi Val, and a third man in Philadelphia in early January-- across from Independence Hall and the National Museum of American Jewish History.
