‘Patriot Front’ video leaked just in time for midterm push: ‘Training for war’

August 31, 2022 | | Print Article

For those paying attention to the surging deep state apparatus in America, the re-emergence of the so-called Patriot Front as we enter the final run to the midterm elections was very predictable.

Billed in the media as a “white nationalist and neo-fascist hate group,” the Patriot Front was founded in 2017, an alleged offshoot of Vanguard America, yet most on the right simply call them “the feds.”

No one seems to know who makes up the group, but they tend to emerge out of nowhere to make a statement carried far and wide by the media before slinking back into the woodwork. A curious factor here being that given the left’s propensity to identify and cancel perceived opponents at will, they take no interest in identifying these people.

A tip generally precipitates the media exposure Patriot Front gets and their latest attention-grabbing feat is also the product of a leak — leaked information is fast becoming synonymous with the Federal Bureau of Investigations, a once storied agency that has all but destroyed its trust with the American people since Donald Trump emerged on the political scene.

In a somewhat comical leaked video, allegedly from December 2021, Patriot Front troopers are seen “training for war,” viewers are informed, armed with little more than light shields that may or may not be plastic:

Of course, with the midterm elections just around the corner, Democrats are pushing all in with their claims that democracy is under threat in America, with white supremacists and fascists making up the forces on the right responsible for the threat.

President Joe Biden will do his part on Thursday by doing what he does best, reading the words placed before him — in a prime-time speech near Independence Hall, the president will warn that Americans’ rights and freedoms are “under attack,” as he tries to revive his 2020 campaign theme about fighting for the “soul of the nation.”

“He will speak about how the core values of this nation — our standing in the world, our democracy — are at stake,” the White House said. “He will talk about the progress we have made as a nation to protect our democracy, but how our rights and freedoms are still under attack. And he will make clear who is fighting for those rights, fighting for those freedoms, and fighting for our democracy.”

In such a case, you need to put a face on that threat — hence the Patriot Front?

Social media was certainly skeptical but the group does provide a great source for comic relief…  here’s a quick sampling of responses to the story from Twitter:
