SPRINGFIELD, Maine — When it comes to the neo-Nazi extremist movement, Christopher Pohlhaus is considered a man with a significant following.
Speaking to his followers on the social media app Telegram, he documented his move to Maine and his desire to recruit white people to live and build a community there with him.
"There will likely not be another chance in my lifetime to fight alongside other NS men against a multi-ethnic invading empire to defend an almost all white nation," Pohlhaus told his followers on Telegram.
Starting in 2023, Pohlhaus has purchased land in the town of Springfield. County records show he purchased about 10 acres of land for $25,000. He told the Southern Poverty Law Center he has around 100 acres under construction, with the hopes of building homes and facilities for training.
