P Harrell LIVE: Man ARRESTED For Speaking Against Zionist Power, Anti-Trump Bureaucrats Caught Planning Coup
Neo-Nazi Litterbug Is Spending Thanksgiving in the Slammer
Jon Minadeo II, the founder of the hate group Goyim Defense League, has been locked up in jail as his favorite social network for berating kids got shut down
BY TIM DICKINSON
THE PAST MONTH hasnât given Jon Minadeo II much to be thankful for. But detractors of the man who bills himself as âAMERICAS #1 ANTI SEMITEâ have certainly been celebrating a No-Nazi November.
Minadeo, 40, runs an antisemitic hate group called the Goyim Defense League â its name and acronym serving as ugly sendups of the Anti-Defamation League, or ADL. After a headline-making summer, Minadeo has had run of bad luck. The meme-savvy neo-Nazi has spent the past month in jail on a littering charge. While heâs been in the clink, his favorite social media tool for harassing young people with hate speech, Omegle, has been shut down. To top it off, on Nov. 29, Minadeo faces a new trial, one that could see him locked up for as long as a year.
Minadeo has three main strategies for spreading hate. The first is by paper: Distributing antisemitic fliers that promote perverse lies, including that Jews should be blamed for everything from the âcovid agendaâ and âDisney child groomingâ to âTrumpâs campaign fundingâ and âabortion and hookup culture.â The second is digital: Livestreaming on his own network, GoyimTV, where Minadeo broadcasts as a character called âHandsome Truth.â The third is by marching: In September, Minadeo and his loyalists joined forces with a hardcore neo-Nazi group called Blood Tribe, taking over an Orlando-area freeway overpass. The mob of hate demonstrators performed Hitler salutes and shouted threats like âJews get the rope!â
The first strategy has gotten Minadeo in significant legal trouble. At the beginning of November, Minadeo was found guilty by a jury in Florida of âattempted litteringâ related to distributing his antisemitic hate flyers in West Palm Beach this past March. According to the warrant for his arrest, Minadeo was throwing the fliers from the back of a U-Haul âonto the public street, in the swale, and into residentsâ yards.â The cop on the scene recovered only a few fliers from the street, so Minaeo was charged with âattempted litteringâ based on the stockpile still in the U-Haul, described in court as âover 700 bags with white paper and brown pellets, weighing at 47.5 pounds.â
In court, Minadeo made the argument that his foul flyers were protected free speech. âMr. Minadeo was delivering flyers with a political message ⌠packaged ⌠in a manner that keeps its contents sealed and prevents that package from flying away,â his attorney wrote. âAt no point did Mr. Minadeo distribute garbage or trash ⌠Despite anyoneâs opinion as to what was on the flyers, these flyers are political and religious in nature.â
The state of Florida countered with a motion that insisted the paper in baggies was trash â in both a literal and figurative sense: âPaper is clearly defined as what can constitute litter in the statute,â the state attorney argued. âAdditionally, the paper is not political or religious in nature, the paper contains unsubstantiated claims attacking a specific religion and are correctly classified as trash having no true political essence.â
Ultimately, Minadeoâs First Amendment hail mary didnât convince the judge. The trial went forward and Minadeo was convicted on the misdemeanor â and sentenced to jail, beginning Nov. 1.
Minadeoâs experience â as documented on his Gab account by a guest poster named âNed,â who has been coordinating with the hate leader â has been miserable. Minadeo spent his first week-plus in quarantine. âHeâs in 1 cell with 5 guys and 1 toilet,â Ned reported. Nonetheless, Ned added, Minadeo had spent his time âred pilling everyone he canâ about the âfilthyâ targets of his hate.
Before long, odd handwritten legal filings began showing up in the court record. On Nov. 17, someone filed an âExtraordinary Emergencyâ appeal arguing that âJon is jailed for throwing political newspapers.â The signature line of the filing is not a lawyerâs, however. It reads instead: âHeld Hostage.â A similar filing claiming âindigent statusâ for Minadeo is also signed âHeld Hostage.â Minadeoâs lawyer, Sarah Wright, could not explain the documents, telling Rolling Stone: âI have no idea what those are. I certainly did not file anything like that.â
