The article discusses the resurgence of the neo-Nazi terrorist organization known as The Base, which originated in the US. Following a period of apparent dormancy, the group's founder, Rinaldo Nazzaro, has been actively recruiting and reorganizing through Russian platforms. As federal law enforcement shifts focus away from far-right extremism under the Trump administration, experts warn that this could heighten domestic terrorism risks. Recent communications suggest a strategic pivot towards covert actions and paramilitary training, signaling a dangerous evolution in their operational capabilities.
Nazzaro's efforts, so far, appear to be paying off: the Guardian was tipped to an audio message released in mid-February from an assumed new leader of the Base with an American accent, discussing the ambitious future of the group.
Experts say federal law enforcement ignoring far-right groups such as the Base could expose Americans to increased domestic terror threats.
At one point, he even solicited ex-American soldiers with an offer of $1,200 a month to put members through paramilitary training somewhere in the Pacific north-west.
The Base has been the intense focus of a years-long FBI counter-terrorism investigation that has resulted in more than a dozen of its members arrested.
