Far-right troll and Capitol rioter 'Baked Alaska' tweets that he can't believe he's 'going to jail for an nft salesman' after Trump announces digital trading card series

The far-right internet personality known as "Baked Alaska" was less than pleased with former President Donald Trump's announcement Thursday that he's launching a series of digital trading card NFTs.
"i can't believe i'm going to jail for an nft salesman," Baked Alaska, whose real name is Anthime Gionet, tweeted Thursday afternoon.

. . .



. . .

Gionet rose to prominence as a far-right internet troll and Trump supporter during the 2016 election. He participated in the neo-Nazi "Unite the Right" rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, in August 2017 and has a long history of sharing antisemitic and white nationalist propaganda.

He was permanently banned from Twitter in 2017 for violating the platform's hateful conduct policy, which prohibits "repeated and/or or non-consensual slurs, epithets, racist and sexist tropes, or other content that degrades someone."
