Report: Records Tied a College Republican Coalition Domain to a Company Managed by Nick Fuentes

Status: This story is a read-back of the Guardian's records reporting. It does not establish that Nick Fuentes controls the College Republican Patriot Coalition. The Guardian said it contacted Fuentes and the CRPC for comment; its article does not include a response from either.

The Guardian, in a Nov. 10 article, reports that Microsoft's public sign-in records listed the web domain of the College Republican Patriot Coalition in a Microsoft 365 account registered to NJF LLC. The newspaper describes NJF LLC as a company managed by Nick Fuentes that also runs his personal website and online store. Until Monday morning, the Guardian wrote, the coalition's domain appeared in that account. By Monday evening, hours after the Guardian sent questions to Fuentes and the coalition, the domain no longer appeared there, and a Microsoft verification code had been deleted from the account's settings, the newspaper reported. Fuentes's own domains remained in the account, it said.

Those are the Guardian's findings from the records it reviewed. A shared account listing is not the same as proof that Fuentes directs or controls the student group. The Guardian says the CRPC has not publicly named its leaders, is not associated with a known registered legal entity, and has not admitted an affiliation with Fuentes.

The Guardian said it contacted Fuentes and the CRPC for comment. The published article does not include a reply from either.

What the coalition says about itself

The Guardian reports that, in social media posts after the midterms, the CRPC blamed the Trump administration and the Republican Party for the losses, saying young voters had received "a war on behalf of Israel, stunted deportations, and a flailing economy." That statement, the newspaper said, listed 31 college Republican groups, including chapters at the University of Florida, Clemson, and Iowa State, and state federations in Georgia, Maryland, New York, Tennessee, and Virginia — the coalition's own count of 31 chapters in 14 states.

The Guardian describes Fuentes as a white supremacist and a white nationalist. Fuentes has rejected those labels. This Guardian article does not quote a new comment from him on that point.

Midterms and 2028 — attributed context

The same Guardian article says Fuentes's pre-election attacks on Trump were echoed in the coalition's messaging, and it quotes Fuentes's own posts, including an election-day post: "Get out and vote Democrat today." AFNS has previously reported Fuentes's midterm message separately.

Separately, Media Matters, an advocacy organization, published a transcript of Fuentes's Nov. 5 "America First" stream in which he said the start of the 2028 Republican presidential contest "is a full on knife fight." That quote is attributed to Media Matters' transcript of the stream, not to an AFNS review of the video. In this article, "America First" refers to Fuentes's show and branding. AFNS has no affiliation with it.
