A neo-Nazi Marine Corps veteran jailed for allegedly plotting to attack the power grid and commit acts of racial terror stands accused by the government of possessing classified Defense Department materials on a computer drive at the time of his arrest, Raw Story has exclusively learned. The nature of the classified materials found on Jordan Duncan’s hard drive upon his arrest in Idaho in October 2020 is unclear. The government has not described the contents of the materials, which were found amid a tranche of documents about chemicals and bomb-making, or provided any explanation about how Duncan allegedly obtained them. But the revelation about apparent classified materials in the possession of Duncan, as alleged by the government in a court filing, adds an explosive new dimension to the federal case against him — as the nation’s defense apparatus continues to reel from a separate classified document leak allegedly committed by a National Guard airman. It also comes amid previously reported details of Duncan’s role in an alleged neo-Nazi plot to target power substations and carry out a campaign of racial violence. Duncan’s background as a Russian linguist trained by the Marine Corps in electronic communications raises the provocative question — yet unanswered — about whether he passed on classified information to a foreign government or otherwise used it to harm the United States by advancing an agenda to promote social discord and undermine democracy. (…) Duncan and two other men were initially charged in October 2020 with illegally manufacturing and transporting firearms. Charges grew to include conspiracy to damage an energy facility, and expanded to include five defendants overall. As described in court documents, the defendants allegedly conspired “to attack the power grid both for the purpose of creating general chaos and to provide cover and ease of escape” while undertaking a campaign of assassinations against Black Lives Matter founders and Democratic politicians. The alleged goal: cause a societal collapse and create a white ethno-state.

A US Marine Corps veteran who was arrested for allegedly plotting terror attacks had classified Defense Department materials on his hard drive. Jordan Duncan, 28, had the documentation on his computer when he was arrested in Idaho in October 2020, according to RawStory. The details of the materials have not yet been confirmed, but they were found along with documents detailing how to make bombs. Neither Duncan, a neo-Nazi, nor the Defense Department has provided any explanation as to how he obtained them. He served as a Russian linguist for the Marine Corps in electronic communications, though it is unclear if he passed on classified information to a foreign government (…) He joined a group organized by Collins, a fellow US Marine, who used a neo-nazi forum to recruit members for a ‘modern-day SS’, according to the indictment. (…) In an Instagram chat on October, 1, 2020, Kryscuk and Duncan fantasized about shooting protesters in Boise, according to a federal indictment. Duncan: ‘How the BSNs finna be pulling up to chipotle after hitting legs.’ Kryscuk: ‘Death squad…. Assassins creed hoodies and suppressed 22 pistols.’ FBI agents notified two BLM movement co-founders that their names were on a list kept by a different member of the paramilitary group. Assistant U.S. Attorney Barbara Kocher showed a judge a 90-second recruitment video in December 2020 that she said shows Duncan firing gunshots, participating in military-style exercises and flashing ‘Heil Hitler’ salutes with three other members. They were all wearing skull masks associated with a neo-Nazi group called Atomwaffen Division, the indictment says.
