Riley Johnson AKA “Tyler SD” of South Dakota

Read more at Central Oregon Antifascists

After their recent stint at the March for Life in Chicago, Unicorn Riot released hundreds of chat logs and materials from Patriot Front exposing their inner workings. What we have also learned from combing the leaked chats is that the group also tries to recruit members who have experience with programming and cybersecurity onto their “tech team.” This brings us to Riley Johnson a.k.a Tyler SD. Riley is currently majoring in Computer Science at the University of South Dakota, and has done internships with the defense contractor known as Mantech. He has participated in numerous cybersecurity competitions including one hosted by AT&T.  He is also an avid racist and one of three members of patriot front in South Dakota. He has also worked extensively on Patriot Front’s website and cybersecurity. In the chat logs Riley shows his extensive knowledge of computer science, and frequently helps members with websites they own.

In October of 2021 Riley also attended a hike with Patriot Front members in Michigan. Much like their public appearances, nature hikes are choreographed events, and members typically may take group photos holding an American flag with Patriot fronts logo where the 50 stars would normally be or they may film themselves reading the groups manifesto. On this particular hike the dozen or so fascists including Riley left Patriot front flyers in their wake.

The evening after their hike the group filmed themselves burning LGBT pride flags over an open campfire while chanting the fascist slogan “Blood and soil,” which has its origin in Nazi Germany.

Calvin Stow-Ortiz AKA “Arthur FL” of Tallahassee, FL

Read more at Atlanta Antifascists

We would like to introduce you to Calvin Joseph Stow-Ortiz (born 2003), who is known as “Arthur FL” within Patriot Front (PF). It is easy to identify Stow-Ortiz through the metadata of a Word document included in the PF data leak. That’s right, Stow-Ortiz got “doxed” through his .docx! PF member “Arthur FL” sent his leader, Thomas Rousseau, the Word document containing lyrics for a “marching song” he hoped the organization would adopt. (“Arthur FL” had taken a Finnish marching song and added his own cornball lyrics.) After “Arthur FL” sent his work to Rousseau, he received a terse “Will take a look” reply followed by complete silence, a fact which suggests that the lyrics were too embarrassing even for Rousseau. 

Stow-Ortiz’s leaked communications as “Arthur FL” show that he traveled regularly to promote PF and do “activism” for the group. He mentioned one trip with PF member “Ulysses FL” to southern Georgia, where “We hit Bainbridge, Thomasville, then Valdosta” with PF propaganda. Stow-Ortiz also attended a November 20 training session with Florida PF members and “unaffiliates” (sympathizers who are not formally part of the group). This training session was in preparation for PF’s December 4, 2021 national rally in Washington, DC. PF assigned Stow-Ortiz to the “screen left” shield-bearing section for this masked rally. Stow-Ortiz later commented that during this march, “half our guys [in the organization] weren’t even [marching] in step”.

Trevor Valescu AKA “Johnny MN” of Southern MN

Read more at the MN United Against Fascism thread here or archived thread here.

Trevor Valescu was identified in September 2020 as “Johnny MN” in the fascist Patriot Front organization. This alias was still active in the Patriot Front chat server leaked by Unicorn Riot in January 2022. Messages by “Johnny MN” indicate that Trevor was still the “Network Director” for Minnesota and the Dakotas in 2021. As a Network Director, Trevor Valescu was recruiting, training, and overseeing the activities of the fascists in his Network. He traveled frequently to Patriot Front pop-up spectacles, appearing in Chicago and Philly. Additionally, he marched with Patriot Front on the US Capitol in DC in December 2021.

Trevor Valescu was active in other fascist circles in Minnesota. He also helped to organize fascist “pool parties” associated with the fascist podcast “The Right Stuff” which also organizes as the “National Justice Party,” a fascist MLM/cult/fake political party.

Charles Sean Conry AKA Jesse NC of Fairview, NC

Pulled from Conry’s Facebook. 2019

Meet the newest nazi transplant from Florida to the Asheville area, Charles Sean Conry AKA Jesse NC. Charlie is an active member of the fascist white supremacist organization Patriot Front.

Conry is responsible for the bulk of fascist propaganda placed in WNC over the last six months including stickers, stenciled graffiti and banner drops.  He is the main creator of the stencils and banners for the western half of North Carolina using a Cricut machine to make his fascist stencils

While Patriot Front likes to try to keep their image as clean as they can get, members break organizational rules: as did Charles when he posted a swastika on a local bookstore along with PF stickers on the night of January 8th. He was also spotted placing stickers in downtown Asheville with another yet-to-be-identified individual.

Colton Michael Brown is a Network Director in the neo-Nazi, fascist group Patriot Front. He operates under the name “John WA” and lives in Ravensdale, WA.

As a Network Director, the highest leadership role you can obtain under national leader Thomas Rousseau, Brown enforces and contributes to Patriot Front’s white supremacist culture and hatred. Brown’s area of responsibility includes the officially-designated “Network 8” (often stylized “NW8” or “Network VIII”1) in western Washington state, plus the less-developed “clusters” in Oregon and Eastern Washington/Idaho.

Brown has organized several hate crimes in the Pacific Northwest, with the approval and frequent supervision of Rousseau. Brown targeted a mural of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor in Portland in July 2021, and participated in the vandalism of the “Respect and Love Olympia” mural in October 2021, among others.

Karter Brown AKA Jackson GA of Marietta, GA | Christian Ian Foshee AKA Jesse GA of Milledgeville, GA

Read more at Atlanta Antifacists

We are unmasking two members of Patriot Front in Georgia: Karter Regan Brown of Marietta and Christian Ian Foshee of Milledgeville. Patriot Front is a white supremacist and fascist organization, formed as a splinter from and rebrand of Vanguard America in the aftermath of 2017’s bloody “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, Virginia. The organization is known for carefully choreographed marches, incessant placement of propaganda, and a nationwide defacement campaign against anti-racist murals, community spaces, and memorials to victims of police murder. All these activities are symbolic acts of intimidation, foreshadowing more literal violence. Patriot Front has tried to hide the identity of its members, but their organization has recently suffered a massive data leak.

Both Brown (“Jackson GA” within Patriot Front) and Foshee (“Jesse GA”) are visible in footage from the organization’s training camp in Tallahassee, Florida, which was held last October. Christian Foshee is also visible in an image of Patriot Front’s drill formations at a Unionville, Virginia camp, just before the racist group held its December 4th national rally in Washington, DC. Karter Brown also attended the December Patriot Front rally in Washington DC, renting a van for Patriot Front members from Georgia to drive to the event.

Christopher Leblanc / Christopher Semok AKA “Ryan FL” of Broward County, FL

Read more at the Atlanta Antifascists Twitter thread here or archived thread here

Thanks to leaked internal chats published by Unicorn Riot in January 2022, Christopher Leblanc, who also goes by Christopher Semok, was identified as Patriot Front member, “Ryan FL.” Patriot Front members choose an alias for themselves which include the state they live in and their title (if they are in a leadership role) once they join the fascist organization.

Christopher Leblanc/Semok was responsible for a lot of antisemitic and neo-Nazi vandalism and propaganda that was put up around Broward county, Florida. As well as his past ties to the racist/fascist Patriot Front and his affiliation with the National Socialist Movement, Christopher Leblanc/Semok claims to be part of the National Socialist Order (NSO). NSO is a continuation of Atomwaffen Division, a neo-Nazi group tied to five murders.

Although he spent time in Spokane, Washington in 2022, he is based in Florida.
