Brookings, South Dakota, is just about an hour's drive down Interstate 29 from Bluestem Prairie's world headquarters in sunny Summit.
But there's one fellow in Brookings with whom Bluestem won't be spending time.
Via Vice Bluestem's editor read in the Anonymous Comrades Collective article, Achtung! Amerikaner’s “Gordon Kahl”: Riggin Scheer of Brookings, South Dakota:
In our last installment, we exposed a network of neo-Nazi home schoolers called the “Dissident Homeschool,” led by Upper Sandusky, Ohio couple Logan and Katja Lawrence, who used the aliases “Mr. and Mrs. Saxon.” The Lawrences were good friends with “Gordon Kahl,” host of the neo-Nazi podcast Achtung! Amerikaner and leader of a network of neo-Nazi podcasts under that umbrella. In fact, a significant portion of the information that led to the identity of Logan and Katja Lawrence was gleaned from their guest appearances on the Achtung! Amerikaner podcast. Since “The Saxons” got exposed, we thought that ol’ Gordon might be feeling a little left out on all the fun. Far be it from the Anonymous Comrades Collective to deny a Nazi a chance to be exposed! Today we introduce to you Riggin Lynn Scheer of Brookings, South Dakota, otherwise known as “Gordon Kahl” of Achtung! Amerikaner.
The Neo-Nazi Coordinator “Gordon Kahl”
Gordon Kahl is the the pseudonym for the administrator of Amerikaner.org, a website that serves as the home for the podcast Achtung! Amerikaner, as well as a number of other podcasts popular with white supremacists like Full Haus, The Godcast, Hate House and The Eagle’s Nest, among others. While facilitating coordination between various neo-Nazi groups across regions, Gordon Kahl has been quietly building a rival platform to the largest network of white nationalist podcasts, The Right Stuff (TRS), led by Michael Peinovich, aka “Mike Enoch.” Though still the largest of the neo-Nazi podcasting networks, TRS has of late been experiencing attrition due to allegations of “secret” Jewish heritage and to the fact Peinovich and TRS have been seen by other white nationalists as using their platform to milk cash from their listeners and from members of the affiliated “National Justice Party” (NJP), which Peinovich also runs.
As such, TRS/NJP have alienated huge segments of their “movement,” which is fine by us. We love to see Nazis not play nice amongst themselves. The most recent scuff-up in this Nazi soap opera has been the revelation that neo-Nazi small press Antelope Hill Publishing, which we have reported on numerous times, has been exploiting their employees, while at the same time earning big bucks, enough to purchase a luxurious $750,000 house in Harleysville, Pennsylvania to use as their “headquarters.” Further fueling the critics, Antelope Hill Publishing’s editor-in-chief Sarah Cucchiara, wife of the boss Vincent Cucchiara, has been accused of having (*gasp*) Jewish ancestry. “Gordon Kahl” has expressed his criticism of this alleged Jewish ancestry, invoking the “one drop rule” (as in “one drop” of “Jewish blood” makes one Jewish), declaring himself staunchly in opposition to the National Justice Party and Antelope Hill Publishing.
Gordon Kahl was at one time, however, affiliated with TRS/NJP, being a “life guard” at their “pool parties.” “Pool party” is code for small local gatherings that require vetting of its participants to prevent infiltration, and “life guards” is code for organisers of these get-togethers (yeah, these code words are dumb; bear with us). But this past summer Gordon Kahl was fired by TRS leaders, stripped of his responsibility in the midst of a TRS money grab, which brings us to his current situation.
Prior to his humiliating demotion, “Gordon Kahl” was a key regional figure, responsible for vetting Nazis for inclusion in several different organizations besides TRS/NJP, like “The Mannerbund,” and Patriot Front. Calling himself “Gordon Kahl” after the real-life far-right extremist and murderer, he is mentioned several times by his pseudonym in the leaked Patriot Front internal communications provided by Unicorn Riot, as the “go-to” guy in the Dakotas. In one incident, a newly recruited member of the violent neo-Nazi psycho organization Patriot Front was perhaps just a little too psycho and violent and was scaring his Nazi associates. “Gordon” was called in to fix the problem. . . .
There's plenty more in the article. At Vice, David Gilbert digests the riches in Meet the Neo-Nazi Podcaster Who Helped Promote Ohio’s Nazi Homeschoolers.
And here we thought Brookings, South Dakota's fourth largest city, was just a pleasant college town, home to the Jackrabbits.

Thank you for exposing this. This kind of thing is a symptom of a sickness in America. We run a very great risk if we ignore or disregard its existence.
Editor's note: While we appreciate your thanks, the author of original article cited in the post did the real spadework to expose this fellow.
