    Every word uttered by a conservative is deception or manipulation. So there was never a reason to believe anything he had to say.

      While that is a concerning statement, I think the more concerning statement is: Florida doesn’t seem to have a problem with Nazis.

    More recently, McLellan’s claims have been exploited by US far-right media personalities, including former Donald Trump advisor Roger Stone and conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer, who have used them to attack the Biden Administration and its policies supporting Ukraine. Stone exclaimed of the “Biggest Nazi Scandal in US History” in the leadup to Loomer appearing on his online show, where she claimed he was part of a secret US government conspiracy.

    I guess when the pot is so black you just can’t see it they can’t help but call out the kettle.

      It would be if nazis were capable of valor. This is just a lying Florida man who switched from bath salts to meth a few years back and tried to take it to the bank.

    Funny thing is that neo Nazi’s are their base to begin with and they use “Nazi’s” as an excuse to stop funding for Ukraine so that they can shove their noses up Putin’s ass, who pretty much is a neo Nazi at this point .

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    More recently, McLellan’s claims have been exploited by US far-right media personalities, including former Donald Trump advisor Roger Stone and conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer, who have used them to attack the Biden Administration and its policies supporting Ukraine.

    McLellan said he fought alongside the Azov Regiment during the siege of Mariupol, where tens of thousands of people were killed as Russian forces besieged and occupied the Ukrainian port city.

    In a follow-up stream on 11 September, Pohlhaus said Blood Tribe, the neo-Nazi group he leads, no longer considers McLellan in “good standing.” Several far-right Ukrainian accounts on Telegram have also dismissed his claims.

    The Florida Department of Corrections public offender network database states that McLellan was incarcerated from 25 March to 7 July 2010 and again from 18 April 2018 to 1 October 2020—in the former case for a property damage charge and in the latter for dealing methamphetamine.

    Additionally, in messages to other Iron March users—including to Brandon Russell, the founder of notorious American neo-Nazi terrorist organisation Atomwaffen Division—McLellan shared his phone number which had a central Florida area code, 407.

    In an August 2022 video from Russian media outlet Izvestia, McLellan speaks to a reporter about his apparent exploits in Ukraine, and flashes what he claims is his Azov identification card in a close-up to the camera.

      Roger Stone and Laura Loomer used this chucklefuck’s testimony as “proof” that Ukrainians are all Nazis.

      I do agree that not a single mind will be changed

        One nazi claims to go to Ukraine: “see, it’s full of Nazis!”

        Tens of thousands of Nazis go to trump rallies: “it’s just a few bad apples.”

          Roger Stone has his own Netlix doc where he openly admits to be a shit eating troll. No one should give him a fraction of their brain time.
