Hot Off the Blog 🗞

Last weekend was a busy one for SoCal Active Club and Clockwork Crew, with wannabe mixed martial artists from both neo-nazi groups participating in separate MMA tournaments.

[Link in bio and at the end of the thread] Image
On August 24, SoCal Active Club sponsored their third annual fascist fight night in the Inland Empire.

Down in the Imperial Valley, Clockwork Crew’s co-founder got his clock cleaned (again) in his third bout on the amateur MMA circuit. Image
Members of various hate groups converged on SoCal for “Frontier ’24", the latest white nationalist punch and kick fest to take place under the Will2Rise banner.

We wrote about the inaugural punching party for @LCRWnews back in 2022.


Image
One thing that set last weekend’s “Frontier” fight apart from the previous two was that SCAC didn’t pretend that their event was held in Huntington Beach this time.

Instead, they actually copped to holding their fascist fight night in the Inland Empire. Image
Just as we have with the previous two "Frontier" fights, we quickly located the venue.

However, we have to admit that finding the Ramona Event Center in Hemet, CA was a bit of a happy accident since we were actually looking into a different location...





Image
Image
Image
Image
We chose to not publicly name the venues used for the earlier “Frontier” fights, and while we haven't found evidence indicating whether or not the owners of the Ramona Event Center knew who they were renting to, we took a different approach this time.



Image
Image
One hate group that didn’t get an invite to last weekend’s “Frontier” fight was Clockwork Crew (Crew 562).

As we covered in a previous post, there's been bad blood between Southern California’s two active clubs since March 2022.
Image
Image
Just as “Frontier ’24” was kicking off in Hemet, Clockwork Crew co-founder Mohammad Wadaa was warming up and stepping into the ring 150 miles south in the border town of Heber, CA to compete in the Desert Fighting Championship. Image
We weren't able to find video footage of his fight, but we did find social media posts containing pre-event photos and videos.

Still, we can confirm that Mohammad Wadaa lost his latest match. In just half a minute. In the first round. Image
ICYMI: As @LCRWnews reported earlier this year, Mohammad Wadaa began hitting the local MMA circuit almost immediately after being released from the brig this past March.

And his new 'career' has been one glorious shitshow after another.



Image
Image
Mohammad Wadaa's previous bout in the ring ended with a TKO so epic that it became the inspiration for some fun ‘fan art‘.


Image
Mohammad Wadaa's first bout is the only one he's won to date. His next two fights ended in a loss, both times at the hands of first-time fighters.

Since his latest beatdown last weekend, the Clockwork Crew co-founder has been losing hard and coping even harder. Image

The arrests of high-profile Terrorgram Collective leaders (Dallas Humber and Matthew Allison), as well as those of their highly stupid associates (Skyler Philippi), have made headlines recently.

But one Terrorgram-related arrest flew under the radar: Kyle Christopher Benton Image
Kyle Benton, a PNW-based neo-nazi accelerationist, was arrested on September 6 on firearms charges (the same day as Dallas Humber and Matthew Allison).

Image
Image
While Kyle Benton wasn't arrested or charged for his involvement with the Terrorgram Collective, his long-held neo-nazi beliefs and his ties to the transnational terrorist group were cited in court documents. Image

Second stop on the #NameTheBozoTour is Ian Henry Desantis, a 35-year-old recent Nashville, TN transplant from Santa Barbara, CA.

We identified Desantis back in January 2023, though his information wasn’t made public at the time because, honestly, we just forgot about him.
Image
Ian Desantis was easily identified seeing as his lack of concern over maintaining basic opsec was matched by his enthusiasm for participating in GDL events. Image
We identified GDL member Ian Desantis after he randomly popped into the WLM CA Telegram chat to brag about his antisemitic activism making the local news - and he did so from a Telegram account that literally included his full name and full face pics. Image

Last weekend we asked if we should expose an Iowa-based member of Clockwork Crew who participated in the Santa Barbara banner flop.

Today we're exposing Nicholas Bauer, a former Iowa resident who's back in his hometown of San Diego, CA.

[Link in bio and at end of thread]
Image
Nicholas Bauer is the founder of Crew 319, a short-lived neo-nazi group that was responsible for a slew of racist flyers, antisemitic banner drops and attention seeking publicity stunts throughout Eastern and Central Iowa in 2022.
Image
Nick Bauer was also responsible for the infamous ‘Day of Hate’ that caused widespread alarm, a hypervigilant police response and a lot of discussion about responsibly issuing warnings about neo-nazi activity versus the consequences of amplifying neo-nazi activity.

With Clockwork Crew co-founder Mohammad Wadaa recently released from military jail, we here at the club did what we do best — wrote entirely too many words about what an awful (and very weird dude) this neo-nazi is.

[Link in bio and at the end of the thread]
Image
Last month we discovered that Mohammad Wadaa had been released from the brig — and that he didn’t skip a beat before ingratiating himself into the SoCal MMA circuit as “Mikhail Markovich”.

(We also discovered that he was booed — loudly — before, during and after his match)
Image
The hostility toward Mohammad Wadaa / Mikhail Markovich may have been due to the fact that he’d kept his most overt nazi tattoo hidden, only to rip off the small black patch covering his swastika immediately before bounding into the ring looking like an absolute ghoul. Image

New from @SCResearchClub and @SunlightAFA

We bring you the story of Primal Aryan Warlord Gang, a short-lived accelerationist cell that was in the process of starting its own compound when the group collapsed after a series of arrests.

[Link in bio and at the end of the thread] Image
This article is as long as it is overdue.

It's the culmination of over a year's worth of research and documentation collected by @FashFreeNW, @SCResearchClub, @SunlightAFA, @WhiteRoseSocAU and other independent researchers.
Image
Primal Aryan Warlord Gang (PAWG) was run by two petty criminals – one a braggadocious burglar and the other a 3-D printing gunsmith – and had direct connections to other militant accelerationists online and in-real-life.

It was our pleasure to share information about Clockwork Crew with @awinston for his latest article.

We'd known for a long time that the group had active duty military members and veterans within their ranks – and we knew exactly who they were. https://t.co/SW4KnWDBxt



Image
Image
Image
Image
We’ve spent over a year and a half closely tracking Clockwork Crew and its members: From the group’s origins as the west coast “commandery” for a neo-Nazi cult (Church of Aryanity) to its rebranding as a racist skinhead crew.
We still plan to write our own piece, but today we’ll give you the scoop on at least one member of Clockwork Crew:
Mohammad Wadaa.

Special thanks to @Stumptown161 and @SunlightAFA, both of whom provided critical info for this ID Image
