...

A total of 68 people were indicted as part of the “Peckerwood gang,” Estrada confirmed. Of the 68, a total of 42 are in custody.

...

The Peckerwoods are based in the San Fernando Valley, Estrada confirmed, and get their name from a derogatory term used against poor white people and Caucasians in the prison system.

...

They also collect Nazi paraphernalia...and then display the symbols on their tattoos, clothing and through social media posts. They also display the symbol “88,” which is the numerical symbol for “Heil Hitler,” Estrada said.

...

The U.S. Attorney cited one example of one gang member named Ryan Bradford, who was found to be selling drugs and manufacturing explosive devices when he was arrested. A “treasure trove” of white supremacist paraphernalia was also found, Estrada added, including replica Nazi uniforms and posters of Adolf Hitler.

Bradford also allegedly made social media posts indicating he wanted to murder and commit genocide of Jewish people.

“In fact, when we searched his home, we found a notepad that had written as its New Year’s resolution: ‘Bake every single Jew,'” Estrada said. “That’s what this group stands for…that’s what the Peckerwoods are all about.”

The group also used social media to share information about criminal activities and gang rules, identify members in good — and bad — standings and target people who went against them.

“The social media use included a members-only Facebook group and private, direct messages between the gang’s members and associates,” the Department of Justice said...

...

Incarcerated members of the Peckerwood gang have entered an alliance with the notorious white supremacist Aryan Brotherhood prison gang, and many Peckerwood members are also Aryan Brotherhood members, officials added.

Some of those members benefit from an alliance with the Mexican Mafia...

How many of these “Peckerwoods” were of the Ray Epps Variety?

Out of 68, how many will get immunity for “testifying?”

First J6 crimes, now “Nazis”. There will be more. The Deep State must manipulate the electorate as much as possible to keep the election within the margin of voter fraud. Then again, they could blatant change votes, out in the open, with judges as witnesses, and the cheating would be allowed to stand.

The Aryan Brotherhood and the Mexican Mafia are allied against the blacks.

Is U.S. Attorney Estrada a collector? Runs a thrift shop?

Whatever. Unpopular thoughts and ideas are protected under the Constitution.

Dressing up as Hitler and collecting memorabilia is and odd pastime, but not illegal.

I'm more concerned with Islamists and those who fly planes into buildings. Great job FBI!

I am a little confused as to what the crime was. Its not illegal to be a Nazi, or to collect memorabilia. Making meth is illegal, so I get that. Was there some RICO conspiracy here, or are we arresting people for their beliefs? In America you should be able to say anything. No matter how retarded.

Seems like there could be better things to buy with their drug profits than posters of an epic loser like Hitler.

Meanwhile ACTUAL National Socialist Workers Party members are throughout the demonrat run Fed Gov including the fibbies and especially the seeing eye-— dawgs.

Socialists— the Nazis were Left of Center Socialists who fought Communists of Weimar who outnumbered them in the millions (and whom they recruited to join the NASDP Nazi Party— Communists). Prosecutor Roland Freisler came from the Communist Party to the Nazis- got his promotion to a slavish murderous “judge”— murdered thousands of regular Germans and many aristocrats and Christians.

They don’t even have to search homes, these kinds of people are out in plain sight chanting “From the river to the sea” at Columbia University and Ivy League schools and even in congress.

What’s stopping their arrests?

Many Nazis are former inmates.

I was wondering about that. Likely these Nazis are the children of Democrat politicians and celebrities.

Hmmm... Seems like all of these statements are protected by the Constitution...

Similar levels of statements from the elected communist and moslem politicians in our government do not seem to be on the DOJ's radar...

What about black supremacists in BLM?
What about much more violent statements pouring out of every mosque in our country?

Well, the article says "[o]f the 68, a total of 42 are in custody", so I would guess there were 26 Federal Peckerwoods. But that number seems way too low (normally the feds like to have over 50% so they can control things)...
