  • CZM Rewind: Arrested Democracy
    May 15 2025
    Arrested Democracy, Part 1 In 2010, conspiracy theorists around the country were convinced that Barack Obama was not the rightful president. Some of them filed lawsuits. Some of them tried to have the President indicted. And when none of that worked, some of them took matters into their own hands and tried to arrest the county court employees they thought were standing in their way. In the first half of this story, Walter Fitzpatrick unsuccessfully storms the courtroom in Madisonville, Tennessee. The outcry over his arrest would motivate Oath Keeper Darren Huff to rally supporters for a second attempt.Original air date: 11/14/24Arrested Democracy, Part 2When Oath Keeper Darren Huff returned to Madisonville, Tennessee on April 20, 2010, he was planning to take control of the courthouse. It didn't quite work out that way. He didn't even see the inside of a courthouse until his own arrest a week later.Original air date: 11/21/24Part 1 Sources:Jardina A, Traugott M.

  • CZM Rewind: The Devil's Chatroom
    May 8 2025
    The Devil's Chat Room: Ethan Melzer, Part 1In June of 2020, US Army Private Ethan Melzer was arrested for leaking information about his unit's deployment to Turkey with the intention of causing a mass casualty incident. The plot was hatched in a Telegram chat room for a group calling itself Rapewaffen, an Atomwaffen splinter cell that was committed to the beliefs of a neonazi satanic cult called the Order of Nine Angles. This episode follows the rise of satanism within Atomwaffen and the chaos that influence caused.Original air date: 10/31/24A Deal With the Devil: Ethan Melzer, Part 2In 2022, Ethan Melzer pleaded guilty to plotting to help al Qaeda ambush and kill his entire unit while on a sensitive mission in Turkey. But Melzer's co-conspirators turned out to be a Canadian teenager and a government informant, not members of al Qaeda. And the satanic cult that drew him down this nazi rabbit hole turned out to have been run by a man on the FBI payroll.Original air date: 11/7/24Part 1 Sources:https://unicornriot.ninja/2020/national-guard-soldier-who-deployed-to-dc-identified-as-neo-nazi/ https://www.peoplefor.org/rightwingwatch/post/ohio-national-guard-member-sent-home-for-white-supremacist-views-is-likely-a-fascist-youtuber https://www.peoplefor.org/rightwingwatch/post/ohio-national-guard-soldier-pulled-from-mission-in-d-c-appears-on-neo-fascist-podcast-says-hes-being-discharged https://www.politico.com/news/2020/06/05/fbi-national-guardsman-expressed-white-supremacist-ideology-303924 https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/the-satanist-neo-nazi-plot-to-murder-u-s-soldiers-1352629/ https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/neo-nazi-1378280 https://www.usnews.com/news/national-news/articles/2020-06-02/military-begins-staging-around-washington-to-quell-george-floyd-protests https://hopenothate.org.uk/2020/06/23/the-rapewaffen-telegram-channel/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/soldiers-cases-highlight-reach-of-white-extremism-into-us-military/2020/06/25/0203532e-b582-11ea-9b0f-c797548c1154_story.html https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/extremist-files/group/atomwaffen-division https://www.middlebury.edu/institute/sites/default/files/2022-06/REDACTED%20CTEC__TAT%20Accelerationism%20Report%20.pdf https://www.middlebury.edu/institute/academics/centers-initiatives/ctec/ctec-publications/dangerous-organizations-and-bad-actors https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-leeds-56044179 https://gnet-research.org/2023/09/25/the-significance-of-dark-foreigners-arrest/ Ariel Koch (2024) The ONA Network and the Transnationalization of Neo-Nazi-Satanism, Studies in Conflict & Terrorism, 47:10, 1172-1199, DOI: 10.1080/1057610X.2021.2024944Mathieu Colin (01 Jul 2024): “And the Devil Marches with Us”: Aesthetics and Accelerationism in the Order of Nine Angles, Terrorism and Political Violence, DOI: 10.1080/09546553.2024.2365749Daveed Gartenstein-Ross & Emelie Chace-Donahue (07 Mar 2023): The Order of Nine Angles: Cosmology, Practice & Movement, Studies in Conflict & Terrorism, DOI: 10.1080/1057610X.2023.2186737Shanon Shah, Jane Cooper & Suzanne Newcombe (19 Apr 2023): Occult Beliefs and the Far Right: The Case of the Order of Nine Angles, Studies in Conflict & Terrorism, DOI: 10.1080/1057610X.2023.2195065Part 2 Sources:https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/17286246/united-states-v-melzer https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/69307006/united-states-of-america-v-melzer/ https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/the-satanist-neo-nazi-plot-to-murder-u-s-soldiers-1352629/ https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/neo-nazi-1378280 https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-features/jack-teixiera-case-military-extremism-1234724461 https://www.wired.com/story/the-dangerous-exploits-of-an-extremist-fbi-informant/ https://thequietus.com/opinion-and-essays/black-sky-thinking/ona-fascism-nazis-folk-horror-underground-occult/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  • Shooter Without A Cause
    May 6 2025

    The guy who took a shot at Trump last summer wasn't the first person to shoot a presidential candidate without a clear political motive. In 1972, Arthur Bremer failed to assassinate Richard Nixon and settled on one of Nixon's opponents instead.
