The US Government Will Not Stop Sharing Nazi Propaganda

https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2026/02/nazi-propaganda-trump-white-house-dhs-kristi-noem-social-media/


This past year, official social media accounts from the Department of Homeland Security, the White House, and other government agencies have adopted a distinct voice online. The posts look like memes, utilizing dramatic AI-generated art, general patriotic slogans, and cinematic language about “defending the homeland” and shaping America’s future.

But if you look closer, a pattern emerges.

Many of these phrases, images, and attached media aren’t just regular social media content. They repurpose language, symbolism, and cultural references with direct connections to neo-Nazi and white supremacist movements. It’s content that experts say is instantly recognizable to those who are in the white supremacist know, but can be largely invisible to everyone else.

So, let’s look at a couple of the more egregious examples that reveal this pattern.

There has been not one, but two posts from our government institutions that reuse a phrase ripped straight from William Gayley Simpson’s book Which Way Western Man?. It was published and promoted by the National Alliance—considered one of the “best organized” neo-Nazi groups in the United States. The book is antisemitic, racist, and explicitly states that Adolf Hitler was right.

But it won't be pretty: in fact, they will become increasingly unpopular, and the outcome will be a bloody mess

It is positively boiling over with putridity, more noxious by the day. The White House must stink to high heaven these days. They might as well tear down the rest of it too.
