Nick Fuentes: podcast appearances and interviews

Nick Fuentes is an American far-right political commentator, live streamer, and influencer. He hosts the livestreamed show America First, where he has promoted views associated with white nationalism, white supremacy, Christian nationalism, misogyny, anti-LGBTQ beliefs, and antisemitism, including Holocaust denial. His supporters are known as Groypers. Raised in La Grange Park, Illinois, Fuentes held mainstream conservative views during high school before becoming politically active after graduating in 2016. He voiced support for Donald Trump and launched America First in 2017. Fuentes attended the 2017 Unite the Right rally and was involved in confrontations at Turning Point USA events during the Groyper War in 2019. He founded the America First Political Action Conference in 2020, described as a white nationalist alternative to CPAC, which has since been discontinued. Fuentes has appeared at events preceding the January 6 United States Capitol attack and gained further attention in 2022 after attending a private dinner at Mar-a-Lago with Donald Trump and Kanye West. In 2024, he initiated a second Groyper War targeting Trump's presidential campaign. Between 2020 and 2023, Fuentes was removed from numerous social media, streaming, and financial platforms for violating hate-speech policies and his involvement in events surrounding January 6.
