GPAHE Brings You the Latest News in Far-Right Hate and Extremism

Project 2025 Is Here: July 1st

This week, we take a look at the Trump regime’s determination to whitewash history in national parks, as mandated in Project 2025, which extends to former Japanese American internment camps where some 125,000 Japanese immigrants and those of Japanese descent were imprisoned during World War II, the vast majority American citizens. We hear from a Japanese American Episcopalian priest whose great-grandparents were sent to the internment camps in 1941, and learn how that generational memory influences his ministry to the undocumented.

As authoritarian governance takes hold, GPAHE continues to expose the actors behind this movement, document the policy shifts underway, and provide critical tools for resisting the far-right’s dangerous agenda.

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.

New from GPAHE: Summer Awakening: Americans Push Back Against Christian Nationalism

In the face of a deadly political assassination and a sweeping rise of Christian nationalism across government institutions, America is waking up. From church assemblies to city newspapers, and from theologians to everyday citizens, a broad movement is pushing back against an authoritarian movement that seeks to enshrine a narrow religious ideology in law. With Christian nationalist policies now shaping everything from education to foreign policy, voices of faith and conscience are warning that democracy itself is at risk. Summer 2025 may mark a turning point—when Americans confronted theocratic ambitions and reaffirmed the nation’s commitment to religious freedom and pluralism.

New from GPAHE: Active Club Chapters Growing Globally

A new report from GPAHE reveals a shocking 25 percent increase in chapters of the neo-Nazi Active Club network worldwide. Since October 2023, at least 187 chapters have been documented in 27 countries, including new chapters in the U.S., Germany, Switzerland, Colombia, and Finland. The decentralized white supremacist network—founded by American and Russian neo-Nazis—promotes combat training and propaganda in preparation for an imagined race war. Particularly alarming is the surge in “Youth Clubs” targeting teenage boys across 42 U.S. states. The movement’s growing global footprint, coordination with extremist parties and groups, underscore its transnational threat.

El País – Budapest police authorizes an ultra demonstration that coincides with the alternative Pride march (La Policía de Budapest autoriza una manifestación ultra que coincide con la marcha alternativa al Orgullo)

GPAHE’s take: Budapest police approved a far-right demonstration organized by ultranationalist group HVIM to take place at the same time and along the same route as this past weekend’s Pride march. Though the Pride march was banned by authorities under Hungary’s anti-LGBTQ+ “propaganda law,” more than 200,000 participants turned out. The decision to allow a potentially violent far-right group to demonstrate while banning Pride follows years of escalating legal attacks on LGBTQ+ rights by Viktor Orbán’s government and comes after the Hungarian prime minister publicly threatened Pride organizers earlier this year. GPAHE warns that these far-right actors, some of whom have ties to violent nationalist militias such as Légió Hungária, are part of a growing extremist movement that uses intimidation and violence to suppress LGBTQ+ visibility and rights.
