Patriot Front
Patriot Front is a Neo-Nazi group, which splintered off from Vanguard America in 2017 after the Charlottesville rally, where a Vanguard America member killed Heather Heyer and injured 20 other antifascists with their car. They are one of the largest remaining, active Nazi groups in the US, and many of their members are based in Texas (Thomas Rousseau, the leader of PF, is based in Dallas).
For a deeper dive into Patriot Front chat logs, strategy, & an analysis of their structure, check out the Torch Network reports on them.
You can find a comprehensive list of Patriot Front members here. For the purposes of this page, we will only list the Texas-area members, particularly those we know to show up in Austin or live in the area.
The location of the Patriot Front Headquarters was recently revealed to be in Grapevine, Texas.
PATRIOT FRONT HATEQUARTERS
BUSINESS ADDRESS
Name: Thomas Rousseau
City: DFW area (Grapevine)
Organizations: Founder & Leader of Patriot Front
Notes (from Texas Against Fascism, source below):
Upset with optics and scared about public opinion in the fallout after Unite the Right, Thomas Rousseau created Patriot Front by splintering from Vanguard America, a now defunct neo-Nazi organization. He runs the entire white supremacist organization from his father’s house in Grapevine, Texas. He is a vile racist and antisemite. His organization has advocated for violent ethnic cleansing in a fantasy “pan-European” (aka white race) world, along with roaming rape gangs. Members of his organization has also networked with neo-Nazi groups abroad, including the international violent terrorist organization Atomwaffen Division. He went to Coppell High School in Texas which is where he got his start in propaganda as a writer and cartoonist for the school paper. He is also an Eagle Scout with the Boy Scouts of America. He is trying to brand himself as a Cowboy Nazi and it’s not a good look. The FBI has been monitoring the petite leader of Patriot Front since he was in high school.
Name: Kieran Patrick Morris
Aliases: Patrick
City: Grapevine, TX (PF HQ)
Social Media: https://twitter.com/ForwardPatriots, Iron March account at ManyEnemiesBringsMuchHonor
Organizations: Patriot Front, ties to Atomwaffen
Notes: Formerly Patriot Front Network Director for New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. He was exposed by NYC Antifa while living in Poughkeepsie, NY, and ended up going into hiding at the PF Headquarters in Grapevine, TX. Since moving to Texas, Morris has updated his vehicle plates to NNR 4884 (Texas) and added a tonneau-type soft bed cover to his dark blue 2007 Toyota Tacoma.
From Texas Against Fascism: “Before Kieran got involved in Patriot Front, he joined the notorious online Nazi forum Iron March and repeatedly messaged Brandon Russell, the founder of the deadly Nazi group, Atomwaffen Division (AWD), about joining a New York-based cell of the Nazi terror organization. AWD members have murdered at least 5 people in the United States and in March 2020, five AWD members were arrested for threatening journalists, the ADL, and people of color. Kieran and Russell were communicating on encrypted messaging services days before Russell was arrested on explosives charges in Florida. In November 2019, Kieran traveled internationally with other Patriot Front members to network with European Nazi groups officially endorsed by Iron March, like Casa Pound in Italy and the Nordic Resistance Movement (NRM) in Sweden. NRM is responsible for numerous racist and murderous attacks. Members were found guilty of bombing refugee centers in Gothenburg, Sweden.”
