About Nick Fuentes
Nicholas Joseph Fuentes (born August 18, 1998) is an American far-right political commentator, live streamer, and influencer. He hosts the livestreamed show America First, where he has advanced white nationalism and white supremacy, Christian nationalism, the incel subculture, misogyny, anti-LGBTQ views, and antisemitism including Holocaust denial. His supporters are known as "Groypers". Fuentes was raised in La Grange Park, Illinois, and held mainstream conservative views while in high school. He became active in politics after graduating in 2016, voiced support for Donald Trump, and launched America First in 2017. He attended the 2017 Unite the Right rally. In 2019, his followers confronted speakers at Turning Point USA events in what became known as the "Groyper War". In 2020, he founded the America First Political Action Conference (AFPAC), described as a white nationalist alternative to CPAC, which has since been discontinued. Fuentes later appeared at events preceding the January 6 United States Capitol attack. He drew 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 2024 presidential campaign. Between 2020 and 2023, Fuentes was removed from numerous social media, streaming, and financial platforms for violating hate-speech policies and for his involvement in events surrounding January 6. Fuentes began hosting the episodic live stream America First with Nicholas J. America First is characterized by Fuentes's frequent use of jokes and irony to appeal to Generation Z while providing plausible deniability for his often extreme views.
