EXCLUSIVE: The Satanic Plot to Assassinate President Trump

17-year-old Nikita Casap is only one of many patsies being groomed by foreign actors to commit terror attacks against the United States.

Spring is my favorite time of year, provided I remember to take my Claritin. The weather is mild, flowers are blooming, and everyone migrates from the comfort of their warm homes to the fresh air of the outdoors. On the weekend of April 11^th, I had every intention to unplug and enjoy nature with my 7-year-old daughter at a family camping retreat. But as so often happens to me these days, my unplug time was overshadowed by a startling development in the world of Satanic Accelerationism. This time, it wasn’t simply a school shooting perpetrated by a member of TCC, or a high-profile arrest of a 764 member. This time, one of the Satanists attempted to take a shot at the President.

As I pulled into the beautiful Texas Hill Country campsite, I glanced at my phone for what I hoped would be the last time before unplugging for the weekend. When I saw the message, my heart rate spiked, but I was committed to unplugging. I shot out a quick tweet notifying my audience of a development and doubling down on my commitment to unplug. After all, I’ve never been a “breaking news” account. I would need to be back at my PC to properly assess the situation. Fortunately for me, my small research team picked up much of the slack while I was away, pulling court records, OSINTing Telegram channels, and attempting to make connections.

Over the next several days we were able to dive deeply into what would become the third heavily publicized assassination plot against President Trump, perpetrated by a 17-year-old named Nikita Casap. Casap hadn’t acted alone. He acted in concert with a group of co-conspirators and consultants who were very familiar to me. Casap’s network included members of Order of Nine Angles, Terrorgram, and Russian-Ukranian Neo-Nazi factions. Due to my proximity to such groups, I had personally been in contact with at least 2 people connected to Casap over the past year.

In the course of publishing my investigative research, I’ve shown how teenagers and young adults are radicalized online and groomed into committing a wide variety of evil atrocities, all designed to contribute to chaos and collapse of the United States and other allied countries. I’ve also shown how a particular group of provocateurs uses a fringe brand of Satanism to justify such activities, a phenomenon I refer to as Satanic Accelerationism, or S/acc.

I’ve used my research to show, in detail, how these groups infiltrate online communities with “Sinister Potential” and use them to further their accelerationist agenda. Kids from TCC, a school shooter fan club community, are targeted by S/acc and guided to commit school shootings. Similarly, select members of the vast cybercriminal network known as “Com” are influenced into committing atrocious crimes against children as part of the 764 child exploitation and extortion network.

Nikita Casap was no different. As a terminally online 17-year-old interested in the neo-Nazi movement, he was the perfect patsy for a particularly dangerous group of Eastern Europeans seeking to “accelerate the collapse” by assassinating the most important figure in the world – President Donald Trump.

On February 28, 2025, in Waukesha, Wisconsin, police received a distressing message from the mother of Donald Mayer, who said she hadn’t heard from her family in a while and had learned that her 17-year-old grandson, Nikita, hadn’t been to school in 2 weeks. Donald’s mother reported receiving a suspicious text message a few days prior from her son. Similarly, Donald’s sister had received text messages from his number stating that he had been sick and unable to talk on the phone and that he was taking time off of social media. Donald’s manager at work reported the same. After checking local hospitals as well as FLOCK cameras in the area of Donald Mayer’s home, police executed a well-being check at the residence.

(You can access the full FBI affidavit here.)

When police entered the home, they found Nikita Casap’s mother, Tatiana Casap, dead in the hallway. Towels and blankets had been used to cover her body, which was blackened by decomposition. Tatiana had been shot in the chest. Donald Mayer’s body was found lying in the first floor office, also covered by a pile of clothing, with a gunshot wound to the back of the head. Donald Mayer’s car, a Volkswagen Atlas, was missing. A neighbor reported seeing the car leaving the residence operated by their son, Nikita Casap.

Police were able to determine that Nikita Casap fled Waukesha 4 days prior, accompanied by the family dog and armed with a .357 Smith and Wesson revolver. Casap was apprehended at 11:25pm in Kansas, after traveling an odd, snaking route through Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska, Wyoming, and Colorado. Found in his possession were the family dog, the revolver, several boxes of ammunition, the wallets and cell phones of both parents, a pried open safe, jewelry, electronic devices, hard drives, a security camera, and $14,000 in cash. Casap was arrested on the spot for the murder of his parents.

The mystery deepened even further when a search warrant of Casap’s devices unearthed a vast digital footprint indicating he had a deep ideological commitment to the Order of Nine Angles and that he conspired with other online individuals to assassinate President Trump. Police found a (presumably) self-authored manifesto on Casap’s phone titled, “Accelerate the Collapse”, in which he called for the assassination of President Trump in order to incite a political revolution, which he believed would “save the white race” from Jewish controlled politicians. Casap, like so many others before him, had become a witting patsy for accelerationists.

Unsurprisingly, Casap’s manifesto was heavily plagiarized from other sources, including writings from James Mason, a founding father of modern accelerationism, as well as from the Terrorgram Collective. Casap’s manifesto also included a paradoxical reference to the American Futurist movement (TAF). TAF split off from the National Socialist Order, which itself was a splinter of the former Atomwaffen Division, after the NSO was infiltrated by Order of Nine Angles. As a result, TAF is a sworn enemy of O9A, which was Casap’s primary ideology. Such conflicting ideological motivators are a clear indication that 17-year-old Casap was confused, ill-informed, and being led around by the nose by shadowy figures with an ulterior motive.

Casap stayed in his home with the decomposing bodies of his parents for 12 days before he was finally ready to flee the residence and carry out the next phase of his plan. In that time, Casap was communicating with multiple Russian-speaking individuals who claimed to be Ukrainian. On February 14, a Russian speaking co-conspirator wrote to Casap on the messaging app Telegram, instructing him to reply to text messages sent to Donald Mayer’s cell phone and claim he was sick. The same individual instructed Casap to drag the bodies of his parents to the basement of the house. Footage from the security camera found in Casap’s possession showed him lighting candles in the house and rummaging through drawers, at one point speaking directly at the camera as if taking instructions from a viewer.

Casap had been communicating with these individuals for quite some time. Over the several months prior to the murder of his parents, he chatted with multiple other Telegram users under his handle, @accelerationist14, about the plan to assassinate Trump.

Casap: “What country do you think will get the blame for this?”

Unknown: “Russia will be blamed for it, this is the goal.”

Casap: “When the time comes for me to send my manifesto to you (so that you can spread it online), should it be pdf? And also you won’t anyhow change or modify the manifesto?”

Unknown: “Write on a piece of paper and take a picture of it.”

Casap dutifully complied with these directives. The FBI also found images containing instructions on using an attack drone and for creating explosives, Molotov cocktails, and poison alongside specific instructions on avoiding getting caught. In a conversation with a Telegram user called “Angel of Death”, Casap negotiated a deal to obtain a drone in exchange for $1200-$1500 in Bitcoin while referencing instructions from a Telegram user with the handle “Asellfuck”. In a Telegram conversation with a Russian-speaking user identified as “Forest”, Casap was given coordinates and driving directions from Wyoming to Pumpkin Center, Oklahoma, along with instructions on obtaining different license plates. Casap asked Forest, “and then from there to Eureka, California, it is 30 hours. You think I’ll have enough time?”

Casap had another Telegram conversation with an individual called Roman Viktorych, who used a Ukrainian phone number. Casap asked Roman how long he would need to hide before he would be “moved” to Ukraine, then he asked what his new life in Ukraine would be like, and if he would be protected. Casap also asked Roman, “Do the other 10 people also have similar beliefs to I? Or are they different?” This question was mirrored in his manifesto: “As a side note, the other attacks that may occur, I have no idea what they are/who they target. I have no idea even if they are same ideology as I. Point being, this manifesto is specifically for the attack that targets Trump.” Casap’s co-conspirators had manipulated him into believing that his attack was part of a larger operation.

Despite the plethora of information provided by the FBI investigation documents, the Casap case is still mired by mysteries. Most notably, who were his co-conspirators, and where did they actually reside? Why was Casap taking such a winding, erratic path from Wisconsin to Oklahoma, and who did he plan to meet up with in Pumpkin Center? A Telegram analysis of “Asellfuck”, along with messages exchanged with him from an anonymous source, indicate that he and Roman live in Kiev. Why were Ukrainians plotting to assassinate Trump and pin the blame on Russia?

Even more intriguing was a footnote in the FBI documents that indicated Casap and his family were subjects of a prior FBI investigation in November 2023. The note went on to state that the investigation was for “unrelated internet IP activity” which the family denied. The investigation was dismissed after the FBI found no corroborating evidence of the alleged IP activity.

A close friend of Donald Mayer reached out to me via email a few days after the news broke about Nikita Casap. He claimed the family never mentioned the FBI investigation to anyone and expressed confusion around the entire affair. What are the odds that an investigation into IP activity at the residence would be unrelated? Isn’t it far more likely that Nikita Casap had gotten involved with these unsavory groups over a year prior? Perhaps the FBI simply doesn’t want to concede that Casap is yet another case of a violent extremist who was “on their radar”.

When I finally returned to my PC on Sunday morning, I was overwhelmed by the sheer amount of information I needed to dig into. When I first heard news of Nikita Casap, my mind immediately darted to another O9A and MKU-linked individual named Nikita. This turned out to be a mere coincidence – I know because the other Nikita reached out to personally clarify. It’s moments like these that cause me to reflect on just how big this movement really is… and just how close to the fire I am.

I was pleasantly surprised that the FBI had released such a detailed affidavit before the trial. Under the “Ideology” sub-header, the document revealed conversations that Casap had with several other members of O9A. One of them, called “Nihilus”, asked Casap for advice on how to find O9A Telegram channels where “niners and dreccs can interact and exchange info.” Dreccs, or Dreccians, are the proverbial foot soldiers of O9A, the boots on the ground to create chaos and evil in order to accelerate apocalyptic conditions on Earth, whereas Niners represent a more philosophical version of the cult.

There was one part of the affidavit that jumped off the page at me. Casap was in contact with another individual called “Mystic Physis”, with whom he discussed how his real-life friends and family dealt with his O9A obsession. I knew Mystic Physis. He was an O9A adherent who had been all over our radar for the past few months due to his unusual side hobby – Mystic was a Brony. “Brony” is the fandom term used to describe a person, typically an adult male, who is a fan of the animated series My Little Pony. Mystic was certainly a fan of MLP, but he was also a fan of Charles Manson and other serial killers. He created altars devoted to his esoteric practice of O9A which also idolized these figures.

Mystic Physis’ O9A altar.

Mystic had his own Telegram channel called “The Equestrian Tradition”, which he had created as an O9A nexion. Nexions are most easily understood as branches or factions of O9A, but a more correct descriptor is a gateway to the “acausal realm”; a way to funnel evil and chaos and concentrate the energy into a Satanic ritual used to open a portal and allow the Dark Gods to enter our world. (You can read all about the O9A cult and their beliefs here.) David Myatt, creator of O9A, designed his cult such that anyone can create a nexion under any terms they choose. There are no limitations or restrictions, not even for terrorists, pedophiles, or in this case, bronies.

The Equestrian Tradition nexion, as silly as it seemed, was promoted in several large O9A Telegram channels and was part of a group of channels called the Noktulian Collective. This group, which demonstrates obvious ties to Eastern European actors, had also been on our radar due to their infiltration of particularly dangerous online communities such as Com, 764, and TCC. We strongly suspected that certain key individuals in the Collective were tied to an O9A linked Ukrainian terrorist group called MKU.

Mystic Physis was prolific and attempted, rather unsuccessfully, to spread his nexion’s beliefs all over the O9A-sphere, from Com to Satanic Front and even into unrelated left-hand path Satanist groups. He also tried to DM me several times to chat. This isn’t unusual – I am a magnet for cultists who follow my content and wish to discuss certain aspects of it with me. As per usual, I ignored Mystic’s DMs for a while. Then, a few weeks ago, I got a message from a concerned mutual that Mystic was planning a mass shooting. They told me that his real name was Felix, that he lived in Orlando, Florida, and that he was only 16 years old.

16-year-old Felix, aka Mystic Physis.

After dutifully submitting a tip to authorities in Orlando, I decided to respond to Felix’s message. When someone young is ruminating on a violent act, I will often reach out to them to see if I can help reason with them or otherwise assess their motivations. In our chat, Felix came across as stable, respectful, and intelligent. Nonetheless, a few days later Felix posted in his Telegram channel that the FBI had visited his home, interviewed him, and confiscated his electronic devices. He has been offline ever since.

Also under the Ideology section, the affidavit specifically called out Mortis Covenant, which is a relatively tame O9A nexion centered around the philosophical teachings of David Myatt. In the Mortis Covenant Telegram channel, users affiliated with ONA Middle School or who express a willingness to commit criminal activity are swiftly banned. Mortis Covenant was also referenced a few times on Casap’s TikTok channel, however, upon closer inspection, this TikTok channel contained far more concerning breadcrumbs than the traditional Niner milieu. References to neo-Nazi terrorist factions in Ukraine and Russia practically jump off the screen. Casap shared a video edit created by the infamous gore group 6996, a group that has most recently been linked to MKU founder Yegor Krasnov. He also shared a video made by an individual named Stepan – a name which matches a prolific member of Com who is alleged by some to be controlling the 764 network behind the scenes.

The analysis of Casap’s Telegram channel revealed even more concerning connections to Eastern European neo-Nazi extremist groups, the most notable being a group called NSWP, which stands for National Socialism/White Power. According to one well-informed source, NSWP is also known as Sparrow’s Crew and has been responsible for many high-profile acts of violence and terrorism in Russia, having taken credit for the assassination of Ukrainian politician Irina Farion last summer. Yegor Krasnov, founder of MKU, is reportedly a big fan of NSWP/Sparrow’s Crew and has taken inspiration from them. Indeed, there is ample crossover between MKU and NSWP, with Telegram channels belonging to the group cross-posting and sharing each other’s signature symbolism – a hockey mask for MKU and a clown mask for NSWP.

Casap was also a member of the Misanthropic Division Telegram channel. Misanthropic Division is a Ukrainian accelerationist group which brands itself as an Azov Battalion support group with factions all over the world. In the MD Telegram channel, members spread news of Casap’s arrest and praised his actions as heroic. “It was necessary to start with Trump,” replied one member.

According to experts in the field, NSWP is a Russian group supported by Ukrainian right-wingers, with members of its group often getting arrested and imprisoned by Russian police. Conversely, Misanthropic Division is a Ukrainian group largely comprised of Russian Nationals. It’s easy to become confused when attempting to navigate and interpret meaning in this complex landscape, however, it is clear that O9A ideology has become increasingly influential in Eastern European countries. Recently, a fighter for the Ukrainian government sponsored Russian Volunteer Corps named Kirill Kanakhin revealed himself to be a member of O9A and claimed to have spent years in a Russian O9A nexion. Stories like these, when combined with O9A’s influence over violent Eastern European terrorist groups such as MKU, illustrate just how dangerous this cult has become.

Digging deeper into Casap’s online footprint, I was hit with a sudden sense of déjà vu. His connections to O9A, Terrorgram, Misanthropic Division, and NSWP were nearly identical to another concerning individual I had run across back in September of 2024. The 29-year-old man, who went by the name Revenant, was a targeted individual. Revenant believed that he was being gangstalked and harassed with directed energy weapons originating from a variety of sources, including Russia.

My first encounter with Revenant occurred when he commented on one of my tweets about Thomas Crooks, the patsy who actually took a shot at Trump in July of 2024. Revenant called Crooks a hero. Intrigued, I decided to engage with him and push for more information. Revenant claimed to be a member of Misanthropic Division. When I looked at Revenant’s X feed, I saw that he frequently shared content from Eastern Europe-linked neo-Nazi accounts. He also posted instructions for bomb-making and other terrorist actions that came from Terrorgram publications. At one point, Revenant mentioned he had applied to join a Ukrainian PMC. But most concerning of all, he alluded multiple times to a plan to commit an attack against the United States.

Concerned, I began to seek out Revenant’s true identity. It wasn’t difficult – Revenant was not particularly careful with his OPSEC. After finding his name and address, I decided the threat was imminent enough for me to submit a tip to his local authorities. And while I never saw any indication of an arrest, Revenant did quit tweeting from his account a few days later and has been silent, both on X and on Telegram, ever since. Hopefully this is a sign that my tip was acted on.

Like Casap, Revenant claimed to be an adherent of O9A. While Casap was a Dreccian foot soldier, Revenant was a Rounwythan, an O9A faction which emphasizes the divine feminine. Also, like Casap, Revenant expressed paradoxical ideological viewpoints, for example, sharing a confusing mixture of O9A and Satanic/occult content on X while claiming to be a practicing Orthodox Catholic. Both patsies were also bombarded with online radicalization from many different avenues – Terrogram, O9A, and Misanthropic Division, to name just a few. Revenant and Casap were both members of the same private Russian NSWP Telegram channel, and both were preparing to commit terror attacks against the United States at the behest of Ukrainian neo-Nazis.

The similarities between Casap and Revenant sent chills down my spine. Could I have prevented a terror attack with my tip in September? It wouldn’t be the first time that had happened; once you know where to look, you start finding these cases everywhere. Accelerationist provocateurs use a shotgun approach, targeting dozens, possibly even hundreds of potential patsies before finding one with the means to actually go through with it. A person suffering from mental illness, like Revenant, presents a unique opportunity for such bad actors. Similarly, an easily influenced 17-year-old with access to the internet, a firearm and a car is an ideal candidate.

The FBI’s affidavit on Casap is the second such document to use the government’s new term for individuals motivated by accelerationism, Nihilistic Violent Extremists (NVEs), with the first being the criminal complaint against Jose Henry Ayala Casamiro, 28, of San Fernando Valley. Casamiro was arrested earlier in April for his role in targeting children for online sexual exploitation as part of the 764 network. The US government defines NVEs as “Individuals who engage in criminal conduct within the United States and abroad, in furtherance of political, social, or religious goals that derive primarily from a hatred of society at large and a desire to bring about its collapse by sowing indiscriminate chaos, destruction, and social instability. NVEs work individually or as part of a network with these goals of destroying civilized society through the corruption and exploitation of vulnerable populations, which often include minors.”

This new term is a welcomed departure from the standard verbiage in such complaints, which have historically blanketed criminals motivated by accelerationism as far-right extremists, an outdated and wholly incorrect descriptor. Journalist Ken Klippenstein decried the term NVE as “the most ridiculous term since the FBI warned of the looming threat of ‘involuntary celibate (Incel) violent extremists (IVEs)’ and warned that the term is overly broad and could be applied to anyone who opposes the government’s authority. While this is certainly a valid concern, the remainder of Ken’s article demonstrates an abject lack of understanding of accelerationism.

“Coalitional accelerationism” is a much better term to describe how different violent accelerationist communities with ideologies that vary wildly can band together and work towards their shared goal of collapse. Had the government asked me for my input on the new term, I would have recommended CAVEs. But alas, they did not. Regardless of the terminology used to describe this rising threat, the fact of the matter is that it is a rising threat, and one that needs far more resources devoted to it. After all, it’s only a matter of time before these terrorist actors are successful in finding a patsy with the ability to follow through with their plot to destroy the United States.
