GPAHE Brings You the Latest News in Far-Right Hate and Extremism
Project 2025 Is Here: February 10th
This week, we look at the federal government’s move to strip the word “racist” from visitor brochures at the monument to the civil rights leader whose killer bragged about the murder at Klan rallies for 30 years. We’ll also explore how professors are being fired for teaching children’s literature and punished for teaching Kant, and the arrival of “Schedule F,” as the administration finalizes a rule letting political appointees fire up to 55,000 career civil servants at will.
Our blog series provides essential updates on how Project 2025’s authoritarian blueprint is being enacted. Now you can view all of our Project 2025 blog posts in one convenient place on our website. We encourage you to explore this series to stay informed and engaged.

GPAHE Recommends: Trump Nominee Jeremy Carl Champions ‘Anti-White Racism,’ Calls for the Death Penalty for Teachers Union Chief
As the Senate Foreign Relations Committee moves toward a vote on Jeremy Carl’s nomination for Assistant Secretary of State for International Organizations, GPAHE is raising concerns about a record steeped in extremist rhetoric. Carl, whose previous nomination expired without a hearing, was re-nominated in January 2026 despite years of publicly promoting the “Great Replacement” conspiracy theory. His statements have included calls for the death penalty against a prominent labor leader, Holocaust minimization, and portraying the Civil Rights Act as an “anti-white weapon.” If confirmed, he would represent the United States at the United Nations on human rights, migration, and refugee policy, negotiating with diplomats from 193 countries—placing a documented history of extremist views at the center of U.S. foreign policy engagement.

New from GPAHE: Weaponizing ‘Free Speech’ Against LGBTQ+ Rights at the European Parliament
A far-right summit hosted inside the European Parliament framed attacks on LGBTQ+ people and women’s rights as a defense of “free speech.” Despite warnings from GPAHE and formal objections from dozens of MEPs, speakers defended Uganda’s anti-LGBTQ+ law, mocked transgender people, and opposed bans on conversion therapy. Backed by American and transnational networks including PNfV, Heritage Foundation, ADF International, and Family Watch International, the event illustrated how far-right groups are exploiting democratic institutions and free-speech rhetoric to legitimize hate, disinformation, and anti-rights agendas across Europe and beyond.

New from GPAHE: Greater Than Equal: Children Are the Shield. Gay Marriage Is the Target.
A coalition of 47 anti-LGBTQ+ organizations has launched “Greater Than,” a coordinated campaign aimed at dismantling Obergefell v. Hodges, the Supreme Court decision that legalized same-sex marriage nationwide, by casting LGBTQ+ families as “threats” to children. The effort revives discredited claims linking marriage equality to abuse and trafficking, repackaging a legal strategy designed to generate test cases that could make the Court reconsider the ruling. Backed by networks tied to Christian nationalist groups and policy efforts aligned with Project 2025, the campaign reflects a broader push to dismantle LGBTQ+ rights, using the language of religious liberty to advance a coordinated attempt to strip marriage protections from same-sex couples.

Washington Post: Killers without a cause: The rise in nihilistic violent extremism.
As the United States confronts a wave of high-profile shootings, bomb plots, and political assassinations, federal investigators have begun describing some of the perpetrators under a new banner: “nihilistic violent extremism,” a term to describe perpetrators who express contempt for humanity and a desire to collapse society. But experts caution that the emerging framework may obscure long-standing extremist currents, including racism and accelerationism, that continue to animate some attackers. “We shouldn’t just lump everything into this new category,” said Wendy Via, co-founder of GPAHE. “If we want to solve the problem, identifying the motivation correctly is important.”
