Radical LGBTQ Activists & Groups

In March 2025, at the University of Texas at Dallas (UTD), reportedly transgender-identifying Liam “Alyssa” Nguyen was videotaped assaulting the president and secretary of UTD’s Turning Point USA chapter while they were tabling on campus. According to TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk, Nguyen used a bike lock to threaten and break both girls’ phones before being apprehended by police. The individual was arrested and charged with two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, attempting to take a weapon from an officer, assaulting a peace officer, as well as resisting arrest, and two counts of criminal mischief.  

The “Ziz Cult” or “Zizians” are a transgender, anarchist, vegan, “rationalist” group known for their likely association with up to six murders across the United States. The group’s assumed leader Jack Lasota faked his death in 2022, only to reemerge later that year as a suspect linked to various violent crimes. In November 2022, the group was sued for refusing to pay rent by their elderly landlord, Curtis Lind. Lind was impaled in the eye and then stabbed 50 times by Zizians, but survived. In December of 2022, the elderly parents of one group member were found murdered in their home; Zizians were suspected, but no arrests were made. In January of 2025, Lind was found dead before he could testify in his case of attempted murder against the Zizians; a Ziz cult member has been charged with his homicide. Later that month, two Ziz members opened fire and killed U.S. Border Patrol agent David Maland during a traffic stop. On February 16, 2025, cult leader Lasota and two other Ziz cult members were arrested on various charges, including trespassing, obstructing and hindering, and possession of a handgun.  

A prolific TikToker, on February 5, 2025 Hunt posted a video highlighting the historical assassinations of political leaders carried out by John Wilkes Booth, Lee Harvey Oswald, and the Roman senators who assassinated Julius Caesar. Hunt stated it was “disappointing” that the political climate has changed since then and wished “our political system would allow the public to hold leaders accountable” by “permanently put[ting] and end to their actions.” 

On February 13, 2025, in response to news that the National Park Service removed transgender references from the Stonewall monument website, Bernstein posted a call on X, saying “‘LGB’ we need to start k!lling people.” The self-described “queer jew” has a history of expressing support for Hamas, the transgender movement, and illegal immigration.  

On January 21, 2025, a Turning Point USA event at the University of Washington headlined by women’s rights advocate Olivia Krolczyk was disrupted by protesters as part of a counter-rally organized by Students for a Democratic Society. Students pulled fire alarms, broke windows, and obstructed other students’ path to class while carrying signs stating “No TPUSA Transphobia at UW!” and “UW Stands Against Transphobia.” Krolczyk reported that she experienced “threats of violence” and was “harassed by protestors [and] held hostage in a room” during the event, which was ultimately canceled due to Students for a Democratic Society’s violent antagonism.  

On January 21, 2025, @libsoftiktok reposted a video in which transgender TikToker @scarletblossum said, “If you are a Republican on TikTok and you want to interact with me, you deserve to die. You deserve to be shot. You deserve whatever suffering could possibly come to you,” and concluded, “This is not a joke.” In previous videos, Blossum told Trump supporters to “go off yourself” and reiterated that they “deserve to be shot.” 

On January 26, 2025, transgender Ryan Michael “Riley Jane” English traveled from his home in Massachusetts to the nation’s capital with the intent of murdering leaders in the conservative movement. He turned himself in to Capitol Police before he could inflict any harm. According to court documents, English had the intention to kill “‘Nazi’ Secretary of Defense, Peter Hegseth, and/or the Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, and/or burn down the Heritage Foundation” in order to “send a message.” English later turned his focus to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. “Originally, English’s thoughts were to use the small bottles of vodka to start fires and later to wrap them in rags soaked in alcohol, light them and throw them at Bessent’s feet,” a court affidavit stated, and that “in the event English was able to get close enough to Bessent, English would have stabbed him with the knife that English brought from home.”

A well-known trans activist based in Chicago, in December 2024 McIntyre had an encounter with Congresswoman Nancy Mace (R-SC) in which she alleges McIntyre assaulted her. Mace received hospital treatment for a broken wrist and McIntyre was arrested on charges of misdemeanor assault.

Known alternatively by the username Venusp**nis, Andromeda is an online trans activist and social media personality on Instagram. Andromeda once called for the murder of J.K Rowling, stating that the Harry Potter author “needs to die” and get “burned at the stake.” In the same video, Andromeda stated trans people should hold their elected officials accountable by “murdering them” and “condones” murder to that end. On November 19, 2024, Congresswoman Nancy Mace (R-SC) posted a video in which Andromeda threatened Mace’s life, saying: “I hope that one day I do find you in that woman’s bathroom and I grab you by your ratty looking f**king hair and drag you face-down to the floor while I repeatedly bash it in until the blood’s everywhere and you’re dead.” On another occasion, Andromeda posted an Instagram Story addressing the congresswoman with the caption “prepare to die @repnancymace.” Both the original video and Andromeda’s Instagram account were deleted soon after.

A radical transgender activist and member of the Montana House of Representatives, Zephyr made headlines for a speech on the floor of the statehouse in which fellow legislators were accused of having “blood on their hands” for supporting a bill banning sex-change treatments for minors. The Montana House censured Zephyr for “hateful rhetoric,” which subsequently compelled a group of protesters to shut down the legislative session. Zephyr reportedly incited the protesters to storm the gallery while holding up a microphone while on the House floor to amplify the voices of the rioters.
