• 22 September 2021 (live): YouTube defines animal abuse content: "malicious infliction of physical harm causing an animal or group of animals to experience suffering." Hunting/fishing is not malicious, and educational videos showing humans/animals hunt/fish should not be censored. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-09-22/albany-fisherman-cops-temporary-youtube-ban/100482240
• 22 September 2021: In a new direction for YouTube’s suppression of independent content creators, it appears they are now penalizing hunting and fishing channels for animal cruelty, despite legal hunting and fishing being specifically allowed by the platform’s guidelines. https://twitter.com/perpetualmaniac/status/1440468212424982536
• 18 September 2021: My full, uncut footage of an apparent masked and uniformed law enforcement officer displaying his badge and being extracted after getting confronted for carrying a concealed firearm at the "Justice for J6" defendants rally today. http://youtube.com/watch?v=187vrqpP7GE
• 18 September 2021 (live): The masked man claimed “I’m just here” when asked if he’s undercover as he presented a badge to justify the gun he was apparently wearing, before being pulled out. Other than undercover, he could have hypothetically been simply masked & off duty with his badge and gun concealed. https://twitter.com/fordfischer/status/1439312268701863939
• 18 September 2021 (live): "Are you undercover?" the officers asked the masked man, who gave them a badge. I guess not anymore. pic.twitter.com/EBBx0e8Ucd
• 18 September 2021 (live): Earlier at "Justice for J6" defendants rally: Police surround masked man reportedly armed with a firearm. He tells them where the gun is, and they pull out his badge. He's undercover law enforcement. Without disarming or handcuffing him, police extract him from the event. pic.twitter.com/F1n4PeuXkt
• 6 September 2021: “Your honor I know what I did looks bad, but in my defense, I do it frequently.”
• 6 September 2021 (live): An officer with the Minnesota State Police told the court during a hearing that after finding out the agency was getting sued for excessive force, they conducted a massive deletion of communications, which could have been evidence in the case. https://kstp.com/minnesota-news/state-patrol-purge-george-floyd-protest/6226899/

• 18 August 2021: Daytona Beach Police officer Jason Raynor, who was shot by the Black nationalist NFAC militia member Othal “O-Zone” Wallace two months ago, has died. https://www.wesh.com/article/daytona-beach-officer-jason-raynor-dies/37333303
• 16 August 2021: As Afghanistan is entirely taken over by the Taliban, The White House says President Biden will not be having any press briefing today and will remain at Camp David. https://twitter.com/fordfischer/status/1427068995748995072 pic.twitter.com/5scAq196o4
• 25 July 2021: It is critical to film government agents during every interaction. As the thread shows, the police agency itself has responded by saying they’ve reviewed bodycam footage, but they haven’t released it. This person could be in jail unable to speak out had they not filmed it. https://twitter.com/sivrajxx/status/1418999469241257990
• 15 July 2021: HHS has released their "Confronting Health Misinformation: The U.S. Surgeon General’s Advisory on Building a Healthy Information Environment" on COVID. They suggest "clear consequences" for "misinformation super-spreaders" on social media. https://www.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/surgeon-general-misinformation-advisory.pdf pic.twitter.com/sg0q2LiZ7d
• 8 July 2021: President Biden plans to sign an executive order rolling back regulations that previously made it illegal for farmers to repair their own equipment. https://www.vice.com/en/article/epn5mk/biden-to-sign-executive-order-granting-farmers-right-to-repair-protections
• 4 July 2021: Right now: the boogaloo activists have armed up and are talking to some local activists (who are not affiliated with boogs) while they wait for some more participants apparently on the way. They intend to march to Capitol soon. I’ll be livestreaming once they step off. pic.twitter.com/FsPzkKWvRT
• 4 July 2021 (live): The cop came prepared with printouts of the new law. pic.twitter.com/9LzARboDG8
• 4 July 2021 (live): Right now: A handful of “Boogaloo” activists are here in Richmond, VA where a new law in effect three days ago bans guns outside the State Capitol. A Capitol officer approached and discussed new laws with them. https://twitter.com/fordfischer/status/1410758330893668352 pic.twitter.com/lgvINRNYYh
• 3 July 2021: That shot from my video: https://youtu.be/b76KfHB0QO8
• 1 July 2021: Robinhood is going for an IPO. I literally every political demographic would agree that if Robinhood restricts/manipulates trading Robinhood shares on Robinhood, straight to jail. https://thehill.com/policy/finance/561191-robinhood-files-for-ipo
• 26 June 2021 (live): As an aside, after tweeting that previous clip in the thread, I just noticed Wallace was also at the Lafayette, Louisiana NFAC rally. https://twitter.com/FordFischer/status/1312592441476775936 pic.twitter.com/5yYt9g3iKs
• 26 June 2021 (live): The NFAC had massive armed marches in the second half of 2020, which stopped after the group’s leader “Grandmaster Jay” was charged in Dec with pointing a gun at feds in Sept. This arrest location would suggest they’re still supporting one another today. https://twitter.com/fordfischer/status/1312600134165954563?s=21
• 26 June 2021 (live): Othal Wallace has apparently been captured in Georgia. "The 3-acre property where Wallace was found is affiliated with the NFAC, which stands for the Not F-ing Around Coalition, a Black nationalist paramilitary organization." https://www.news-journalonline.com/story/news/crime/2021/06/26/othal-wallace-accused-shooting-daytona-beach-officer-captured/5356363001/
• 25 June 2021 (live): However, Wallace apparently recently joined the New Black Panther Party less than two weeks ago, reports Heavy. A Facebook post celebrating his admission into the group has since been deleted. (My work from earlier in this thread featured in this story) https://heavy.com/news/othal-wallace/
• 25 June 2021 (live): According to local media, a spokesperson for the NFAC militia says Othal Wallace - who marched with them in summer and fall of last year - is no longer a member, having been terminated in January. https://www.clickorlando.com/news/local/2021/06/25/suspect-in-daytona-beach-police-shooting-had-ties-to-black-militia-group/
• 24 June 2021 (live): This is bodycam footage released by Daytona Beach Police in the shooting. It is worth noting that there’s an apparent cut in the clip, so this is not complete footage of what happened. As of now, Wallace is still reportedly missing. https://twitter.com/DaytonaBchPD/status/1407904928878764032
• 24 June 2021 (live): This is the local news story: https://www.clickorlando.com/news/local/2021/06/24/daytona-beach-police-officer-shot-volusia-sheriff-confirms/
• 24 June 2021 (live): A manhunt is taking place in Daytona Beach after police say Othal “O-Zone” Wallace shot a cop, leaving them in critical condition. I filmed Wallace march with the Black Nationalist NFAC Militia September 2020 in Louisville, Kentucky. See 2:45 into: https://youtu.be/ZGCHseYEvw4 pic.twitter.com/Mng7CxCj21
• 23 June 2021: Can you screenshot where you believe you see that? I'm quite sure you're mistaken but would correct myself if I am wrong.
• 16 June 2021: Like all censorship, YouTube’s removal of journalistic coverage of bio-hackers as “medical disinformation” is a dangerous slippery slope. You don’t have to like gray and black market medical phenomena, but deleting news coverage about it serves no discernible purpose. https://twitter.com/reason/status/1405235987739938820
• 11 June 2021: DC fully reopened as of today but Uber and Lyft don’t have their pool options back yet 👀
• 18 May 2021: Among the gigantic data leak from the DC Police Department, something I found interesting: A powerpoint presentation from early 2019 shows how cops internally were being trained on the "antifa" movement. "They have no moral compass on who they go after" is in the speaker notes. pic.twitter.com/44XENbVmDD
• 15 May 2021: Nerding out that the director @darren_bousman liked my tweet about If you see this I gotta ask: when you were doing Saw 2-4, could you have ever imagined getting a Chris Rock and Samuel L Jackson cast for the 9th film in the series? Fun direction! pic.twitter.com/VivAKQ4vac
• 15 May 2021 (live): So I saw @Saw tonight with @Hala_Nico . It was a lot of fun to watch in theaters, our first since the pandemic! Recommended for horror fans who are looking for something they don’t have to take too seriously. Chris Rock was actually pretty fun to watch in a horror film. pic.twitter.com/nzOJhboWwH
• 15 May 2021: Haha see you tomorrow 😎🎥
• 14 May 2021 (live): I will be speaking following @ggreenwald 's appearance tonight on the @jimmy_dore show around 8:30 pm EST. https://twitter.com/jimmy_dore/status/1393350080455856132
• 14 May 2021: Name one innocent reason you could mention “pants” in a video. I’ll wait. /S
• 14 May 2021 (live): Honestly, without any other information, my guess is its your advocacy for Palestine. Palestine is an algorithmically discriminated term on YouTube. https://twitter.com/FordFischer/status/1179048671008174086
• 30 April 2021: Incredible photo by @agrayphoto : A protester runs from police between @JonFarinaPhoto and I last night in #ElizabethCity . pic.twitter.com/hW4HEuaozp
• 2 April 2021: Just a learning moment: never say “yes” to these. What you film is yours (or belongs to whoever hired you to film it). Your labor has value. “PM me and we can discuss credit and a licensing fee” is the right answer. This case is particularly funny because it’s ABC asking NBC. https://twitter.com/lena_camilletti/status/1378035332516614154
• 15 March 2021: @TeamYouTube purely technical issue: after traveling, YouTube wants me to do a device verification. On my device, it works fine (retracted just the info, but it says “successful”) and then on computer it just stays stuck. This doesn’t happen on Safari, but I mainly use Chrome. pic.twitter.com/xVNpxb9TNW
• 20 February 2021: INB4 “it’s a suppressor not a silencer” I know I know.
• 20 February 2021 (live): Lol I forgot about Nick with that silencer 😂 pic.twitter.com/Xgs6JJD8D9
• 20 February 2021 (live): That was a super fun day. Basically a journalist retreat. pic.twitter.com/xNxDS5IUAN
• 8 February 2021: In front of Senator McConnell’s house right now: activists are here thanking him for announcing he plans to vote to convict former President Trump at his impeachment trial. More on the way, I plan to livestream soon. pic.twitter.com/zb09okn6HB
• 8 February 2021: https://www.mitch.team/mcconnell-impeachment-is-patriotic pic.twitter.com/yVge0TJIva
• 8 February 2021 (live): The post-Trump presidency era is already causing politics to enter directions perhaps never imagined. Following Mitch McConnell's announcement that he will vote to convict Trump, @ShutDown_DC , an antifascist alliance, puts out a press release applauding his decision. pic.twitter.com/yD6v5d8zfI
• 3 February 2021: This is the policy Youtube mentions in their tweet. My video is of people watching the then-president's speech before they went and stormed the Capitol. But would @TeamYouTube you allow the video if I add your disclaimer over it all, like this? https://twitter.com/TeamYouTube/status/1356761255579541505 pic.twitter.com/sWRf2ohlg4
• 3 February 2021 (live): I'm fully serious @TeamYouTube . If this is really the issue, may we either: 1) disable embedding 2) Let me re-upload the video with the warning you put on the videos straight in the video. It would look like this the whole time. https://twitter.com/TeamYouTube/status/1356760557454389249 pic.twitter.com/KPCrwUaB6G
• 3 February 2021 (live): They add that other videos have “sufficient context or countervailing views.” This is actually not true, but ok. I want to fix this, not fight. @TeamYouTube , would you allow me to upload into same URL if I add an in-video disclaimer like the ones you put under election content? https://twitter.com/teamyoutube/status/1356762651318124546 pic.twitter.com/Zr1b7JYV75
• 3 February 2021 (live): YouTube is saying my uncut footage showing the crowd reacting and chanting (for example) “fight for Trump” during his J6 speech ahead of the insurgency was removed for not presenting a counter-view to the president. https://twitter.com/teamyoutube/status/1356760557454389249
• 28 January 2021: The US Capitol Police - a federal agency who ultimately answers to the Biden administration - is now planning to have a permanent physical barrier around the United States Capitol. https://twitter.com/macfarlanenews/status/1354871296664993795
• 9 January 2021: “Refuse Fascism” Holds Presser Demanding Trump Removal Following Capitol Insurgency https://www.pscp.tv/w/csiv9jFETEtCQW94cVdxUUp8MW5BS0VMcWJMbmF4TM070KPG3f6pwWLhFNmACSyQNuA32g_lZQVIW9ua1cjM
• 6 January 2021: I’m going to attempt to livestream again as Trump supporters march to the Capitol. I expect the large crowd will cause signal to fail, will do my best.
• 6 January 2021: And this is why.
• 6 January 2021 (live): This is what actually happened: https://twitter.com/fordfischer/status/1309966696313049089
• 6 January 2021 (live): I came across some Proud Boys dressed in black around H Street. They’re basically using American flags on their masks, arms, or shirts to distinguish themselves from actual antifa activists. I asked to take pic, this is what I got. pic.twitter.com/9ElhSSU3xo
• 26 December 2020: If you seriously have something you believe you've learned on this attack, here's the link to send information to the FBI, which you can also call. Yesterday I did both and spent about 15 minutes filing a report by phone. https://tips.fbi.gov/digitalmedia/7a67ae4eca52788
• 26 December 2020: I want to bookend this with how I started: I don't know if what I found matters. It is very well possible that, as "S McG" has now stated, they simply received this footage third hand and didn't realize they were the first to put it online. https://twitter.com/FordFischer/status/1342574792227094528
• 26 December 2020: "S McG" also liked one comment reading "Well it did warn people to evacuate, what a nice gesture" The Twitter account and the "S Mc G" Youtube have not done anything new since the post yesterday and videos two months ago respectively. pic.twitter.com/Jd23umvou9
• 26 December 2020: Regarding the "S McG" who posted the video: They have now written some comments on Youtube indicating that they received the video "at least 3rd hand" and that neither the other Youtube channel nor the Twitter account that posted the video around the same time belong to them. pic.twitter.com/5aNl2tc8iI
• 26 December 2020: A couple small followups and a general note on my thread yesterday: Firstly, a lot of people have been sending me tips. I'm not law enforcement. I basically came across something I think they should look at. If you really think you have something, contact the FBI, not me.
• 25 December 2020: Ok, on the advice of several other journalists as well as my own family with whom I'm celebrating Christmas right now, I've sent this information to the FBI. We're cooking Christmas dinner right now and it is not my intention to be glued to Twitter this evening.
• 25 December 2020: My reason for posting this is that the "S Mc G" account has virtually zero views, so I suspect that nobody has looked into this yet, and I do hope relevant authorities find and take a look at this.
• 25 December 2020: I want to be very clear: I have no idea who "S McG" is or whether they're the same person as "S Mc G", and even if so, whether that person was involved in this incident.
• 25 December 2020: Their only other two uploads appear to be screencapped videos of President Trump with the Kanye West song "Black Skinhead" over it. The videos are identical other than that one has twenty seconds of other music afterwards. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wTJtmWTiXnM and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAzgYEhHeCM pic.twitter.com/kbdvFE0IJR
• 25 December 2020: Their previous post was October 1st, where the video is a static image of the term "Apocalypse" searched on "DuckDuckGo" with Hans Zimmer's "Dream Is Collapsing" track from Inception in the background. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9LopLKTWGA pic.twitter.com/RTTrfmLr1I
• 25 December 2020: This video is posted twice by "S Mc G" on their Youtube. It montages COVID-19 announcements and reports over music, and then turns to black and white images of destruction, before a clip I don't know how to describe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Je6JHzbBjTk and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBJlrSdidlk pic.twitter.com/XrLUTG8RsT
• 25 December 2020: "S McG" who posted the bombing video has an almost identical username to "S Mc G" - who only joined Youtube in April 2020 and also has no bio. The five videos posted on it, posted over the course of three weeks, are all very bizarre. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqVb5A01dRgMOZl4EOQi8wg/videos pic.twitter.com/sUT30Qq1BP
• 25 December 2020: The account that posted the clip to Twitter only joined this month and has also never posted before today. The video turns black and white following the explosion in both uploads. The next tweet is the curious part. https://twitter.com/TA32556798/status/1342513650360348676 pic.twitter.com/tYUuMSjLIs
• 25 December 2020: A video on Youtube has gone viral showing the scene of the explosion. The account that posted it is called "S McG" and has no bio or info, and has never posted until today since joining in 2014. Vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nygTJeu9fU Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNzhdk3QE3fvjBeErPtBl-w pic.twitter.com/dHRUuoy7u5
• 25 December 2020 (live): THREAD: I have discovered something online that could be relevant to the Nashville explosion, but I want to be extremely clear that I don't know what - if anything - to infer from it. I'm hoping appropriate experts and authorities can take a look.
• 22 December 2020: “If Marco Rubio or Ted Cruz makes it to the White House, it will be historic — it would mean this country had its first ever Latino president.” https://www.npr.org/2016/02/27/468355564/why-cruz-and-rubio-cant-count-on-the-latino-vote
• 22 December 2020: This article from 2011 seems to verify that many of the regulations in the guidelines are enforced. The author seems ostensibly unaware that if he had violated them, he could have done six months in jail! https://semi-rad.com/2011/06/inside-the-smokey-bear-costume-for-a-day/
• 22 December 2020 (live): Whoever made this account (I promise it isn’t me!) is taking a damn big bet on Trump signing the bill. https://twitter.com/smokethatbear/status/1341421334266572801
• 22 December 2020 (live): The repeal of USC Title 18 Section 711 providing criminal penalties for misusing Smokey Bear was integrated into the Omnibus bill from Republican @RepSteveChabot ’s H.R.498 from early 2019. Bear lovers, you owe your thanks to Congressman Chabot. pic.twitter.com/3FEef61R7y
• 22 December 2020 (live): Pages 15 and 16 of the Smokey Bear regulations (whose criminal enforcement the Omnibus Bill will repeal) explain proper handling of the Bear costume. It must be kept under lock and key with a sign-in/sign-out system and a warning label when not in use. pic.twitter.com/TKAkEIbR2g
• 22 December 2020 (live): “There shall be at least one uniformed escort to accompany the Bear. The escort shall guide the Bear at the elbow. The escort must be knowledgeable about Smokey Bear and wildfire prevention.” Someone got paid your tax dollars to write this. I like that “Bear” is capitalized. pic.twitter.com/r75GmVnwUT
• 22 December 2020 (live): This document is incredible, and will have to be re-written following the Omnibus bill. Smokey Bear’s 18-page regulation guideline punishable by jail includes instructions for those who wear the bear costume, including to always use the Smokey voice modulator. pic.twitter.com/thgSKKbdvT
• 22 December 2020 (live): I know y’all think I’m being ridiculous about this, but I think it’s a fascinating case study in government bureaucracy. My research has taken me to the official Smokey Bear Guidelines document authorized by the Wildlife Service, which references criminal penalties for misuse. pic.twitter.com/66uVguMUZ8
• 22 December 2020 (live): I’m currently spending ten days with family in Massachusetts which is why I’m meticulously analyzing the wildest line of a 6000 page budget bill instead of filming protests and stuff. https://twitter.com/fordfischer/status/1341397821367472129
• 21 December 2020 (live): Until this omnibus bill passes, misusing the phrase "Give a hoot, don't pollute" is also be a 6-months-in-jail crime. The phrase will be legalized for public use under the new spending bill. pic.twitter.com/5sn9rYT30a
• 21 December 2020 (live): This is a real product on Amazon, but not available in the United States. When the new government spending bill passes, you won't risk going to jail for 6 months for printing it anymore. https://www.amazon.ca/Smokey-Bear-Smoking-Weed-Pillow/dp/B00WURIRTC pic.twitter.com/gQ6rf012EP
• 21 December 2020 (live): Technically, you could go to jail for six months right now for - for example - advertising pipe tobacco with Smokey the Bear on it smoking from a pipe. When this spending bill comes into place, letting Smokey smoke will be effectively legalized. https://twitter.com/FordFischer/status/1341163388559306752
• 17 December 2020: No worries, just came full circle because I was the OP of the quote tweet this was replying to. Was sorta a funny coincidence.
• 16 December 2020 (live): FYI, that shot on the right was taken by me actually! https://twitter.com/fordfischer/status/1279463131861979136
• 14 December 2020 (live): A Black Lives Matter-supporting Boogaloo Boy has released bodycam footage he took of Proud Boys approaching him over a BLM patch. It has been my experience so far - multiple times now - that Boogaloo Boys and Proud Boys fight eachother every time they come into contact. https://twitter.com/zakkariboog/status/1338361916612349952
• 13 December 2020: The Proud Boys posed for photos outside Harry's Bar in D with the banner they had just swiped from a church. When it was suggested that they burn it, one said "it won't take, it won't take, it won't burn." Stand by for next tweet. pic.twitter.com/f29jxRqYdv
• 13 December 2020 (live): The Proud Boys pulled two banners off of Asbury United Methodist Church, one "Black Lives Matter" banner and one promoting a women's event. They kept the BLM banner (more on that later) and after reading the women's one, summarized it as "liberals, gay" before throwing it back. pic.twitter.com/XATjYbLbNs
• 13 December 2020 (live): Some Proud Boys brought a "" banner they had apparently taken to their main group, where they stopped on it and chanted "USA! USA!" pic.twitter.com/1TOYQHqexP
• 13 December 2020 (live): When the Proud Boys arrived at Black Lives Matter Plaza just north of the White House, where anti-Trump protesters were, police cut them off. PB's tried to demand "an hour" to "clean the streets up." "They want to kill you! Why do you protect them? Oath breakers!" "Pussies!" pic.twitter.com/KcHP6lxZtq
• 13 December 2020 (live): "No Trump, No peace! No Trump, No peace! No Trump, No peace!" the Proud Boys chanted as they marched along. pic.twitter.com/JTLbRGYubM
• 13 December 2020 (live): In the aftermath of one of their own being arrested, one of the Proud Boys told police "Put the fucking shield down you fucking cuck, we're not the bad guys. Fuck you." "You guys work for us, stand down," added another. One suggested the police are antifa. pic.twitter.com/j4aTrk4VFT
• 13 December 2020 (live): As Proud Boys continued to pursue antifa, police struggled to stay in the way. One PB said his "freedom of travel" was being infringed before saying "fuck em" and flanking around. One PB had a pushing match with a cop, while another toward the end of this clip was arrested. pic.twitter.com/GwfdOgQCtb
• 13 December 2020 (live): As Proud Boys approached antifa, MPD maced the Proud Boys to hold them back. Water bottle throwing over the police's heads continued, one hitting my camera and causing a piece to fall off (which I found! - no problem), until police pushed the antifa group in the other direction. pic.twitter.com/gZAIlCGb9G
• 13 December 2020 (live): Tonight Proud Boys roved through Washington DC looking for "antifa" to confront, and police generally tried to stop them. In one incident at K and 14th, police tried to form a line between them and an antifa group, but PB's got by and began exchanging water bottle throws. pic.twitter.com/oiC8RdK4BT
• 13 December 2020: I'm getting there.
• 13 December 2020 (live): Tonight, a stabbing incident occurred on 11th Street NW between E and F streets. This is the footage I captured. It appears a total of three people, including two Proud Boys, were injured. PB's accused the third person - seen bloody at the end of this clip - in the stabbing. pic.twitter.com/sT78BPMs5c
• 7 December 2020: “"Mr. Fischer's lawsuit against Officer Hersl is in progress," Fischer's attorney Jason Downs told City Paper. "Officer Hersl previously asked the court to dismiss Mr. Fischer's lawsuit. Officer Hersl's request was denied." https://www.baltimoresun.com/citypaper/bcp-030817-mob-hersl-20170308-story.html
• 7 December 2020 (live): A civil settlement (ie, money to victim) really isn’t particularly relevant to whether the police department itself disciplines the officers involved, or whether state’s attorneys press charges against the officers.
• 7 December 2020 (live): Phoenix taxpayers will pay a $3 million settlement after police shot a man twice in the back.

• 30 October 2020: When the incident actually happened, Walker didn’t mention his emotional distress, or much of anything else, on the police report, which he left blank. Do you think a cop should be able to sue someone over an incident if they leave the incident report blank? https://twitter.com/fordfischer/status/1270790723114283008
• 30 October 2020 (live): The cop who was shot once in the leg during the botched raid that left Breonna Taylor dead is suing her boyfriend Kenneth Walker for “emotional distress” and assault in the incident.

• 25 September 2020: I put my watermark onto HD footage, but my name on clips while on the ground is hard, and also wouldn’t have solved this issue anyhow.
• 25 September 2020 (live): As a general note, @Twitter could benefit from reforming/removing the ability to embed a video from one tweet into another without quote-tweeting. It is commonly used by people reframing work to deliberately hide its original context, and makes it very hard to find originals.
• 25 September 2020 (live): This is the link to @BobTheComrade 's tweet. To be clear, he doesn't ID himself as a journalist. I don't blame him for this situation. However, Newsweek seems to have seriously erred by uncritically reporting his reframing of my video. https://twitter.com/BobTheComrade/status/1308867451141206024
• 25 September 2020 (live): The way the tweet was included in a viral thread made it appear as though the two weeks old video is new. I think @Twitter needs to seriously consider adjusting this feature and how it renders when embedded into another article. pic.twitter.com/fJvN8cAdG1
• 25 September 2020 (live): The apparent reason for @Newsweek 's error is that @BobTheComrade used a feature on Twitter where you can embed someone's video without quote-tweeting it. This method @Twitter allows prevents the source tweet from being visible to the viewer. https://twitter.com/BobTheComrade/status/1308867451141206024
• 25 September 2020 (live): The article incorrectly states that the militia was at the "protest sparked by the verdict in the case of Breonna Taylor in order to protect the police." By verdict, they mean grand jury decision. That happened September 23rd. The video is from September 5th. pic.twitter.com/MMMNB5ydgg
• 25 September 2020 (live): This is the original video the Newsweek article is based on. At the moment I post this now, it has less than 100 retweets, but more than a million and a half views. In it, police converse with a militia group ahead of a September 5th protest. https://twitter.com/FordFischer/status/1302230746170626048
• 25 September 2020 (live): I hate that I have to do this, but a video I shot is being spread out of context and has apparently been turned into an entire @Newsweek article.

• 13 September 2020: A line of cops on bikes followed closely behind the activists along with cruisers behind. Sgt. James Mcguire argued with protesters, who demanded the cops stay 30 feet behind them. Sgt.

• 13 September 2020 (live): Some people filmed from the patio of Larry's Lounge, another gay bar. "Raise your fist up the air, give us a clap... but please don't record the march. We don't want to snitch on freedom fighters." A waiter asked patrons to stop filming as activists used umbrellas to block. pic.twitter.com/jjoYgYhIQB

• 13 September 2020 (live): "When you're asked to raise your fist up in the air, you are showing solidarity of which side of the history you stand on," an organizer said. "When you don't raise your hand in solidarity, what you're saying is that you are comfortable to be white supremacist." pic.twitter.com/dzpQ5Co0YL
• 13 September 2020 (live): "If you believe that Black lives matter... I ask you, I challenge you, to raise your fist in solidarity!" Most patrons at the restaurants did so. pic.twitter.com/xRy3Q0XtsP
• 13 September 2020 (live): One patron from a gay bar called JR's insisted on filming. The FTP activists were insistent that bystanders witnessing the event did not film and confronted/blocked him from pointing his phone at the event. pic.twitter.com/oUI3POqCLQ
• 13 September 2020 (live): The FTP March went to 17th street near Dupont, the site of several gay bars. "You're going to listen to the stories of the murders of Black people within the DMV killed by the pigs, paid for by your tax dollars," they told patrons, who they blocked from filming with umberellas. pic.twitter.com/UMIhSZbXgk
• 13 September 2020 (live): Correction to earlier tweet: While "Revolution!" is used in some chants such as "You can't stop the revolution!" in the particular tweet I misheard "abolition" as "revolution." Apologies for the misquote. https://twitter.com/FordFischer/status/1305186186575728642

• 23 August 2020: The “National Patriotic Defense Team” stuck around tonight, listening to a police radio. Their plan was basically to go anywhere a situation formed that they thought police would be overwhelmed at. None ever came, and it seems they’re wrapping up. pic.twitter.com/MCMhp8HaX9
• 22 August 2020 (live): The militia switched parking lots and ordered pizza. They say that they’re “on standby” in case violence breaks out elsewhere, they’d drive to that location. In the meantime, rifles are away and they’re just hanging out. pic.twitter.com/6F17KzUj0p
• 22 August 2020 (live): Meanwhile, the militia I started the day covering - which calls itself the “National Patriotic Defense Team” was just about to leave. I asked their leader Tara "Hoggirl" Brandau whether they considered the day a success, and they said yes, opposing groups didn’t show. pic.twitter.com/5r8rIxACEE
• 22 August 2020 (live): So the competing militia rally got cancelled, so there’s basically a handful of those guys standing under a bridge near their rally point telling people to leave if they show up. pic.twitter.com/22jBFo1Fo2
• 22 August 2020 (live): At this point it’s started to rain, so some of them are getting into their cars. One interesting development is that the group has a new name and no longer identifies with III%. They are now the “National Patriotic Defense Team.” pic.twitter.com/ABt7PepvGT
• 22 August 2020 (live): So for the past couple hours, the militia group basically stayed in the parking lot. At first, they tried to block it off so only militia could use it. Local PD told them they couldn’t do that. They spent the time so far guarding their cars and talking to a handful of media. https://twitter.com/fordfischer/status/1297214774313250817
• 22 August 2020 (live): But first, the militia has to pay to park. pic.twitter.com/defjNCZFE6
• 22 August 2020 (live): I count 24 of them, but something interesting: they tell me that actually another “Patriot” Militia will be showing up that they disavow and consider to be racist. It’s unclear to me how many that might draw. pic.twitter.com/w6QU0kbbkk
• 22 August 2020 (live): They just had a prayer and it seems like they’re going to march shortly. I’ll be livestreaming soon. pic.twitter.com/aMkQQT6cn3
• 22 August 2020 (live): Right now: as a sort of street convention called #BreonnaCon for #BreonnaTaylor takes place in Louisville, KY, III% militia groups are gathering in the area. I’ll be doing my best to document them throughout the day, particularly their interactions with BLM and law enforcement. pic.twitter.com/GsiYQveak4

• 15 August 2020: A man wearing a shirt reading "White, Straight, Republican, Male: How else can I piss you off today?" was arguing with some leftists. (This is my livestream angle). I tried to take a photo of his shirt, and he tried to grab by camera. He then did the same to a female photog. pic.twitter.com/gxtXJUn6J8
• 15 August 2020 (live): Not worth making a video clip, but one of the right-wingers' car had a writing on it reading "My Life Matters! Proud of what and who I am! A White man." pic.twitter.com/C4V9CFfTj7
• 15 August 2020 (live): Immediately after the macing incident, someone on the leftist side threw a firework that released smoke into the crowd. It was startling (especially with so many guns around) and caused some coughing but - to be clear - it wasn't a chemical irritant like tear gas. pic.twitter.com/Je6y7LpuHZ
• 15 August 2020 (live): "Look at this peak male performance here" an antifascist activist mocked a right winger. The situation was escalating in tension but didn't turn into punches. A couple right-wingers then maced the @flowerunited crowd. pic.twitter.com/vSqrObhtLf
• 15 August 2020 (live): Around the corner from that parking lot was W Mountain Street. This block between Main St. and Ridge Ave (outside Stone Mountain First United Methodist Church) ended up being the battlefield for most of the day. This was the first flag swipe/burn stunt I saw at that location. pic.twitter.com/TY7JhLYmpm

• 15 August 2020 (live): The Confederate guy got in his car, but got out and tried to file a criminal complaint when he was informed a sticker was on his car. The police seemed not to particularly care, but he saluted them and told him he's with them. pic.twitter.com/R6SjD8Qzvm
• 15 August 2020 (live): One of the Confederate guys (armed with a shotgun) stood outside his car. A Coalition Of Armed Labor @ArmedLabor activist told him he'd have safe passage if he'd get in truck and leave. pic.twitter.com/pUgoitwU3i
• 15 August 2020 (live): The III% group led by Chris Hill retreated into a wall. An anti-Confederate activist pulled a handgun out of his holster, which he held in his hand facing the ground. Hill began keeping his hand on his holstered handgun. Ultimately, the anti-Confederate put his away. pic.twitter.com/lOyYyuPgeY
• 15 August 2020 (live): From the beginning, the right was outgunned and vastly outnumbered. As they first began their retreat, one Confederate guy's flash was stolen right off the poll. "Fuck your rag!" protesters said as they set it on fire. pic.twitter.com/FP9xwcm2hi
• 15 August 2020 (live): "Nazis, go home!" chanted anti-fascists at the Confederate supporters. Tensions began to rise as a bottle of urine was poured onto the Confederate people. pic.twitter.com/NstRexwKDj
• 14 August 2020: I just was taking a look through the Emmy nominations this year, and this season of "Full Frontal with Samantha Bee" got one!

• 13 August 2020 (live): As far as my own coverage: Whatever happens, I plan to document it all day. Because of the possibility of this being spread out (will police separate the two sides? Will there be more than two sides?) I've also hired freelancer Joey Pluto to get a second video angle. pic.twitter.com/V4kKGwZdVJ
• 13 August 2020 (live): For their part, law enforcement claim they received one permit request and denied it. However, the released tis statement claiming that they are planning to protect "life and property" amidst the demonstrations. The specifics of how they would do so are unclear. pic.twitter.com/032zL9GvT4
• 13 August 2020 (live): Ultimately, the NFAC confirmed to news media that they do not intend to come to the event. At the moment, I have no reason to think otherwise. https://www.ajc.com/news/black-militia-not-coming-to-stone-mountain-leader-says/LXL2THN6TVHYDLCUVPCFGLNYRE/
• 13 August 2020 (live): Complicating the issue is that the III%ers have been writing online that they anticipate the NFAC - a newly formed all-black militia - showing up. An obviously fake Facebook page called "NFAC Atlanta Chapter" had been pushing this claim. pic.twitter.com/3KFQRKM6Wn
• 13 August 2020 (live): Which precise right-wing groups will show is up in the air. Stormfront, a Neo-Nazi website, has users claiming "3000-4000" people will show up on their side. I'd be shocked if they scrape a tenth of that, but the fact remains that hardcore white nationalists are interested. pic.twitter.com/cC7qTFectr
• 13 August 2020 (live): F.L.O.W.E.R. is calling for another counter-demonstration against the Confederate Monument supporters, and have been posting screenshots etc showing far-right support for the event, dismissing the "heritage not hate" branding on the right. https://twitter.com/flowerunited/status/1293660602490146817
• 13 August 2020 (live): In early 2019, a similar rally had been planned by avowed white nationalists. A leftist coalition called @flowerunited (FrontLine Organization Working to End Racism) formed in response. The right-wingers cancelled, and the leftists marched unopposed. https://twitter.com/FordFischer/status/1091726183140610049
• 13 August 2020 (live): A Facebook event currently with 600 RSVPs and 3000 "interested" and another with 343 going and 4000 interested promotes a "Defending Stone Mountain" rally. These groups tend to claim that their support for Confederate Monuments is about "Heritage, not Hate." pic.twitter.com/LsVB047gjG
• 13 August 2020 (live): I have arrived in Stone Mountain, Georgia, where a possible confrontation is set to take place on Saturday. I will try to detail what I know, and my plan for coverage, as well as I can here in this thread. pic.twitter.com/tFFgb1pcvq

• 7 August 2020: I never called the antifa person a revolutionary. Wohl is a fraudster because his career in activism is entirely in debunked lies, beginning with his being banned from securities trading for fraud all the way to today’s fraud.
• 7 August 2020 (live): I hadn't noticed this when it happened, and I appreciate those who reached out. Jacob, however, composed this event. I have no doubt he knew exactly what he was doing by putting her address on screen. https://twitter.com/FordFischer/status/1291530379573235714
• 7 August 2020 (live): I was alerted that one of the screenshots in Jacob Wohl's Powerpoint today includes the personal address of Merritt Corrigan. I attempted to blur using a tool Youtube has for that, but it looks like it won't process quickly. I've deleted the video and will repost with a blur. pic.twitter.com/lrXIt5Ct9i
• 6 August 2020 (live): I don't actually care, but it appears I got literally Rick Rolled. A guy trying to interrupt the presser played loud music. Youtube detected the "Never gonna give you up" song playing in the background. pic.twitter.com/sZx87Dpqdf

• 6 August 2020 (live): Journalist @ZTPetrizzo kept grilling them in the garage, but we ultimately left empty-handed because Wohl didn't want us recording the recording (which he later released 90 seconds of) because it's "evidentiary." Never mind the implication that the rest of his presser wasn't. pic.twitter.com/sfDnBWE3Wy
• 6 August 2020 (live): Wohl and Burkman then opened up their garage and offered to show @ZTPetrizzo and I the recording they have that would "exonerate" Wohl but didn't want us to record it, which we refused. Here's the conversation that followed. pic.twitter.com/viwqhTZVvw
• 6 August 2020 (live): I asked if Wohl retained a lawyer in case police charge him with kidnapping. Burkman (a lawyer) stepped up to reiterate that Wohl and her had sex the day after the alleged crime. I said that no serious lawyer would claim this exonerates him. Burkman disagrees, presser ends. pic.twitter.com/FfKqEDtgtC
• 6 August 2020 (live): Daily Dot / Mediaite reporter @ZTPetrizzo asked Jack Burkman about his current standing with the Bar Association. Burkman is still a lawyer "as far as I know" he says. He also denies using shell corporations on a followup from Zach. pic.twitter.com/SyaVruagij

• 2 August 2020: DC’s delegate to Congress wrote in 2018 that USPS delivers “unreliable service in the Eckington, Anacostia, Cleveland Park and Michigan Park communities.” Do you trust that mail-in votes will be counted accurately / errors will only occur equitably? https://thedcline.org/2018/12/21/norton-writes-usps-postmaster-general-over-wholesale-reports-of-unreliable-mail-delivery-poor-customer-service-across-the-district/

• 5 July 2020 (live): I talked to a few boog guys hanging out after the event about what common ground they see with BLM. "Anti-authoritarianism is a broad spectrum, and a lot of people call fall under that," one explained. Another says the media tries to vilify them and misrepresent their views. pic.twitter.com/cJ6vrlB6fN
• 5 July 2020 (live): This dialogue was also fascinating. Here, boogaloo boys explain their ideology - as they see it - to Black Lives Matter protesters. I think this conversation may be illuminating to those having trouble understanding how these groups found agreement. pic.twitter.com/fSx4O31QEu
• 5 July 2020 (live): Wearing an "I can't breathe" hat (and a few firearms) activist "Pops" said that "If George Floyd would have been a blonde hair blue eyed white guy, I still would have been pissed." pic.twitter.com/EK3VhBEjP5

• 5 July 2020 (live): I didn't get to promptly publish some of my HD footage from this morning's BLM/2A rally in Richmond because I had another story in DC. Apologies for delay, but catching up! Here's my HD summary of their confrontation with the "propertarians." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQd-iQC7Uzo
• 4 July 2020 (live): I'll have more HD video from this story but right now I'm back in DC where there's plenty to cover tonight. Stay tuned for a jam packed evening on my Twitter feed, and HD video from all the stories later. As reminder, here's my live of the full 2A event. https://twitter.com/FordFischer/status/1279395073365426177
• 4 July 2020 (live): This clip better represents the vibe of the day. Earlier, police had refused to allow the and #Boogaloo people in a certain area. They linked arms and went into the area (armed) without police intervening. No arrests made today. pic.twitter.com/6sNde0tCHe
• 4 July 2020 (live): "We don't do that Nazi shit!" Mike Dunn, a marine veteran and the organizer of the event, talked to his group after the confrontation explained what happened. pic.twitter.com/pIcgzyNFGN
• 4 July 2020 (live): Some in the audience of the speech were in disagreement about whether the "Propertarians" are racist. This led to arguing and a very very brief physical confrontation. One guy accidentally dropped his mag and had to put it back in. pic.twitter.com/oAjPnspBY9
• 22 June 2020: I’m currently out-of-state, so unfortunately I can’t be there to film / cover this situation first-hand.
• 22 June 2020: Live right now: Protesters have written “killer” on the statue of Marquis de Lafayette in Lafayette Park outside the White House, and are attempting to pull it down.

• 19 November 2019 (live): Interview: @nick_brana of @XRebelDC explains how the first day went at Pelosi's office. The group was told they'd be given a meeting time, which hasn't yet happened. They'll be back tomorrow. pic.twitter.com/qgTCIcUg1n
• 18 November 2019 (live): I want to clarify for the record on this: Pelosi’s office put out nice glasses and pitchers of ice water with lemon. Extinction Rebellion did not bring wine glasses. https://twitter.com/mainerbee/status/1196560153983762432
• 18 November 2019 (live): Since Pelosi’s office closes at 5:30, the activists have now left. The action assembled outside at 11am, so they’re a total of 6.5 hours into the hunger strike. They plan not to eat tonight, and reconvene to take over Pelosi’s office again tomorrow at 9am. pic.twitter.com/zUyVG9RZ1Y
• 18 November 2019 (live): By the way, here is Speaker Pelosi’s official statement on the issue. While responding to the activists, it doesn’t mention them or their demands. pic.twitter.com/ypoJJHbNDO
• 18 November 2019 (live): The @XRebelDC @ExtinctionR activists are still in Pelosi’s office, and using salt-water concoctions to stay hydrated and functioning while not eating. pic.twitter.com/JHQCiiskwM
• 18 November 2019 (live): A lot of tweets replying to me are asking why @XRebelDC is protesting Pelosi and not - say - @senatemajldr . That exact question was asked earlier, here was their answer: pic.twitter.com/TzwlBhEO9O
• 18 November 2019 (live): ER renews its call for Pelosi’s office to send someone to talk to the activists by the end of the day. Pelosi’s office says all staff are busy and he doesn’t have access to their schedule. pic.twitter.com/ECt3fS10mM
• 18 November 2019 (live): Quick update: #ExtinctionRebellion is currently about 3 hours into their hunger strike in Nancy Pelosi’s office. So far her staffers have mostly ignored the activists, and no progress on their demand for a meeting with the Speaker herself. Press (including me) working here too. pic.twitter.com/LI6ace58yn
• 18 November 2019 (live): Pelosi’s office is apparently telling media that some press representative has spoken to the @XRebelDC activists. Here, one XR organizer says that didn’t happen. I’m still on location and can confirm that hasn’t happened. pic.twitter.com/JPhIQpdi2Y

As it turns out, my job isn’t to agree/disagree. I record, and let the viewers decide. The left and right should both support. https://twitter.com/DrPaulGosar/status/1137080351358980096
• 7 June 2019: What it shows me generally is big tech service exclusion and suppression is fairly universal. I tend to blame the big tech itself, and @Timcast seems to focus on the media that pressures it. I’m comfortable saying we disagree on that, but a conversation about this is warranted.
• 7 June 2019: Some very difficult issues addressed by @Timcast here. He brings up how an email from a journalist at @Slate caused Chase bank to shut down the Proud Boys. He also brings up @YouTube suppressing @sandibachom , whose footage of PB was used to arrest them. https://youtu.be/rQseevpKDqw
• 25 May 2019 (live): Or this one? (It’s highlights but had a similar livestream) If you think I’m doing activism for whoever I film, this thread would have you believe I’m a “conservative MAGA communist.” Highlights: New York "Rally for Trump" after Mueller Report https://youtu.be/tkTkBkkBYF0
• 25 May 2019 (live): People make the exact same accusation though for everything I cover. Last month I filmed this. Beginning to end, rally by conservatives about the 2A.

• 25 May 2019 (live): Frankly it’s a subject I think gets to the heart of most of my work since the plurality of my coverage is political activism. I’m most well known for covering Charlottesville where I’ve spoken extensively about how the lack of police intervention caused tragedy.
• 25 May 2019 (live): I’d add that occasionally the left does what you’re doing and mistakes me for supporting fascists or nationalists or whatever when I cover them. My personal beliefs aren’t relevant to my style of coverage. It’s a mistake to infer them from it, and people mistakenly try to.
• 25 May 2019: I just film stuff the way it happens. Different people have different approaches. I get that. Like personally, I agree with the 2A. I personally agree with some stuff I heard on their side like that. Commie flags, I absolutely don’t. But my feelings aren’t relevant to my work.
• 25 May 2019 (live): I said that that's what the people out there on the left were saying. They were. If I said "Pete Santilli thinks Ford is leftist" it wouldn't make it me claiming that. I've seen your stuff, I know you know the difference. We aren't enemies dude, can we take this convo private?
• 25 May 2019: I never claimed the police did anything wrong to protect them. I have made observations throughout the day. I don't want to publicly argue with you, I PM'ed you. Call me. I'm a free market libertarian. I believe in 1A. I'm not sure where your claim that I'm a commie came from.
