Joe Biden has accused his opponent Donald Trump of trucking with 'domestic extremists'. Ryan Cristian, founder and editor of podcast The Last American Vagabond, pointed out the hypocrisy of the president who arms Ukrainian Nazis.
The CIA is using fascist groups as tools of state policy at home and abroad, says an independent media commentator.
Several dozen members of the Blood Tribe and Goyim Defense League neo-Nazi groups marched to Disney World in Florida on Saturday.
Blood Tribe leader Christopher 'The Hammer' Pohlhaus, a former US Marine, praise Ukraine's Nazi Azov Battalion*. Pohlhaus added that he was backing Democrat President Joe Biden over Republican Donald Trump in the 2024 since "Biden is better than Trump because he sends rockets to Ukraine" to arm fellow fascists.
Right beside Pohlhaus at the rally was US neo-Nazi Kent 'Boneface' McLellan, easily identified by his tattoo-covered face.
Conservative investigative journalist Laura Loomer has helped expose how the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) sent McLellan to Ukraine in 2014 to volunteer with the fascist Right Sector** and Misanthropic Division militias, allies of Azov.
In another Twitter thread she stated that Boneface was likely engaged in war crimes, providing a photo of the radical "wearing an Azov Battalion uniform, next to the dead body of a civilian". According to her, it was authenticated by a forensic analyst.
Later, the journalist noted that she received a phone call from none other than Boneface himself, who confessed to more crimes before threatening her.

"I received a phone call from Kent BoneFace McLellan at 1am last night after someone leaked my personal cell phone number to him, and after he was seen saying 'we have a visual on Loomer' on a HAM radio he is not licensed to operate. He published that video to his Twitter account and tagged me. During the phone call I had with McLellan last night, he gave me confessions of various crimes. Here is the evidence of what our US government is doing in #Ukraine. These are WAR CRIMES," she said.

Podcaster Ryan Cristian told Sputnik that it was a "larger story than just a couple of neo-Nazi groups and whether they have ties to Ukraine."
He stressed that while there were genuine racists and fascists in the US and and other countries, some appeared to be fronts for the US federal government.
"The bigger picture for me is that these groups, and you can point to the groups like the Patriot Front or a lot of different overlapping points, you can make direct ties back to a larger CIA agenda," Cristian said.
"It's really important because in Ukraine, we've heard a lot about this kind of 'Russian lie' about de-Nazification," he noted, when "the corporate media was talking about the Nazi problem in Ukraine, screaming about it right up until February 2022, and then suddenly it all vanished."
Since then the Western mainstream press has worked hard to whitewash Azov, even after thousands of its militants — many bedecked with tattoos of swastikas and other Nazi symbols — surrendered in the city of Mariupol early in Russia's military de-Nazification operation.
"The Azov movement was the continuation of what the Azov Battalion was originally, and it did not go away. It became wildly politicized. They have the national corps, they run police forces," Cristian said.

Ukrainian Spy Participated in US Capitol Breach Alongside QAnon Shaman – Report
The podcaster recalled the CIA's Project Aerodynamic, the US spy operation to support the remnants of the Banderov nationalist movement in Ukraine that collaborated with the Nazi invaders in the massacres of Jews, ethnic Poles and others of their compatriots.

"It's a CIA agenda that began in 1948, as far as I can tell, before it was even called the CIA, where they were cultivating fascism, using the the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists and a guy named Mykola Lebed who was a Nazi war criminal" Cristian said. "Not a neo-Nazi, but an actual Nazi war criminal, that the CIA set up in New York and in Ukraine, running a company called Prolog Inc, a media company that was sending out media to American citizens."

"If we can prove, which we can, that the CIA has been growing and funding, as even the FBI and different groups have acknowledged over the years, this exact entity, then we can also draw lines to all of these different factors we're talking about," he underlined. "That doesn't mean that these extremists are not in and of themselves extremist or that every part of them know that they're being used."
The commentator pointed out that one of those marching in Florida at the weekend was Christopher Poulos, who is closely linked to Robert Bruno, a founding member of the Rise Above movement that took part in the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia in August 2017. The Biden election campaign in 2020 tried to tar then-president Donald Trump with the same brush as those at the event that began as a protest by citizens against removing a statue of Confederate General Robert E Lee from a local park.
"So now if we can prove that the Azov movement is CIA, at least influenced by them, and now they have made international arms of extremists all over the world, and then one of those groups marches through Charlottesville and becomes the basis for the 'white supremacy' problem in MAGA," Christian said. "That's not to say that there's not some element there, but this is an obvious operation."
Biden's claims to be taking a stand against domestic far-right extremism stinks of hypocrisy while he funnels tens of billions of dollars worth of arms to the ne-Nazi regime in Kiev to murder Russian civilians.
"Think about how silly it is that we're going to pretend like Biden's waging a war against white supremacy while funding the most obvious neo-Nazi element in the world right now," Cristian pointed out ."We know that on January six, for example, that there was a Ukrainian asset that was there, a part of the Azov movement. It's all documented. He was literally have pictures of them next to Jake ['QAnon Shaman' Jacob Chansley] with the horns, the guy that everybody knows."
