Far-right extremist livestreamer Nick Fuentes — who leads a “Groyper” following of mostly young men and brands himself “America First” — is putting President Donald Trump on notice ahead of the 2026 midterm elections.
“I won’t even consider voting in the midterms unless the Epstein Files are fully unredacted, mass deportations resume, and we don’t go to war with Iran,” wrote Fuentes, who has 1.2 million followers on the X social media platform.
Some of Trump’s MAGA allies were furious this week as Attorney General Pam Bondi deflected numerous questions in a congressional hearing on that very topic.
Even before Bondi’s widely-criticized performance, Fuentes had called for her impeachment.
"Pam Bondi needs to be impeached," he said on his February 9 Rumble show, "America First," as The Daily Beast reported. "You lied about the existence of the files. You lied about unindicted collaborators and accomplices.”
Fuentes has been described by the Southern Poverty Law Center as a "white nationalist," an "admirer of fascists," and someone who "frequently relies on antisemitic tropes."
According to the Anti-Defamation League "Fuentes has used his platforms to make numerous antisemitic, racist, homophobic and misogynistic comments," and spreads "white supremacist propaganda."
President Trump “has not condemned Fuentes,” and Vice President JD Vance “has only criticized him for attacking his wife,” The Week reported last month. “But Vance also appears keen to avoid alienating young Fuentes supporters, who could help him secure the GOP presidential nomination in 2028.”
