If you want to help and keep track of last night’s May Day arrestees check out Philly Anti-Repression Fund’s twitter (@phlbailfund) and fundraiser (fnd.us/b1Eata?ref=sh_d6cb9d). Let’s support our comrades facing repression.
On this International Worker’s Day, we are inspired by the resistance around the world from the streets of Paris to nearby Philadelphia. Solidarity with workers everywhere on this May Day and here’s to a long (hot) summer of fighting capitalism, colonization and ecocide!
Please check out this video about our front in that struggle, and please consider donating to our fundraiser here: www.fundrazr.com/campwhitepine!
Update 5/2/17: We have received word that Reardon has been evicted from his apartment. As a result, we have removed the address at 44th and Sansom. We have also been informed that someone damaged a car of another resident of Reardon’s building. While we do not know for sure that is related to this we would like to make it clear that no one from Antifa Philadelphia was involved and that sloppy or misdirected actions reflects badly on Anti-Fascists as a whole.
Update 5/1/17: Word has spread fast about Illegal Aryan being exposed. We would like to remind our readers that Reardon lives in an apartment in a building, and there are other tenants there with no ties to him or his Nazi activities. We understand that residents are (understandably) upset about a Nazi living in their midst and spreading propaganda, just please be mindful of that.
We have confirmed that Reardon is no longer employed at the Law Firm he had listed as his Facebook employment. We have removed the contact info and thank both the Firm for being understanding and everyone who called for keeping it civil.
Mark Daniel Reardon, aka “Illegal_Ayran.” Neo-Nazi living in Philadelphia.Reardon attending the private conference portion of the Traditionalist Workers Party’s event in Kentucky last weekend.
The flyers were taken down almost immediately by numerous crews of Anti-Fascists, students and other people from the area. Responsibility was claimed by the twitter account @Illegal_Aryan.

Due to some good investigative work from a supporter and some supplementary research by our Intel team, we have confirmed that “Illegal Aryan” and Mark Daniel Reardon of West Philadelphia, are one and the same.
Mark Daniel Reardon, aka Illegal_Aryan, Neo-Nazi.
Reardon is a rather recent convert to Nazism.
If one was to look at Reardon’s facebook, they would find no obvious indicators to his Nazi views. He definitely posts some questionable content, such as videos by notorious right wing charlatan James O’Keefe and of distraught Hillary Clinton supporters upon finding out their candidate lost, but nothing that would lead you to believe he would be moonlighting as a Nazi troll and putting up vile racist flyers in West Philadelphia.
According to Illegal Aryan, he is 32 and lives in West Philly between 2 mosques and within a few blocks of the spot where those 2 cops were ambushed last summer.
Illegal Aryan also was nice enough to describe themselves on the Stormfront dating section. Also mentions that they like to bike.
Illegal Aryan also posted on TDS that they went to Temple University ten years ago.
Mark Daniel Reardon is 32 years old.
Mark Daniel Reardon went to Temple University and graduated 10 years ago.
Mark Daniel Reardon is tall, slim, is European, and likes to bike.
Reardon’s most recent address (removed do to being evicted) close to the area where the flyers were put up and where those cops were ambushed.
Getting the picture?
Reardon recently was working as a Desktop support engineer at a law firm , but we have confirmed that he has not worked there for several months.
It also appears that Reardon was trying to go onto Nazi website The Daily Stormer recently while working and apparently using the Wireless network of The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. We are working to confirm or dis-confirm whether he is currently working there; an unsettling possibility if there ever was one.
That service desk number is CHOP’soh and make sure this article gets plastered on these groups
Mark talked a lot of big fucking game about Antifa when he was anonymous. Let’s see how he feels about us now. Nazis are not welcome in Philadelphia, and any attempts by them to organize, recruit or intimidate will be annihilated. If you do attempt any of these things, you have already ruined your life; even if you don’t know it yet.
Solidarity with everyone who stood strong in Pikeville on the 29th despite the threats of violence by the Nazis and law enforcement harassment.
This project has grown neglected and my trajectory insists that I declare Anarchadelphia on an indefinite hiatus. Have another project you’d like to advertise in its absence? Feel free to comment in order to do so.
Regardless, phlanticap.noblogs.org and itsgoingdown.org continue to hold it down.
Whether I see you in the streets or you find me in the forest, may we combine forces for the destruction of this society.
The demo starts at 6th and Market outside the liberty bell and ends at city hall. Stand together against Fascism, Imperialism. State Violence and the “Alt-Right”. SOLIDARITY FOREVER!
Join the Industrial Workers of the World In Philadelphia on International Workers Day, as we will be demonstrating at the Philadelphia Immigration and Customs Enforcement or ICE office in solidarity with immigrant detainees. Immigrant detainees live and work in poor conditions in some cases making only $1 a day. In April 2017 Tacoma Washington Immigrant detainees went on a labor and hunger strike over bad food and low pay.

After this we will join the March for a day without immigrants at City Hall at noon
In response to Donald Trump invading our beloved city after insulting us by calling it a warzone, we of the East Shore Antifa are issuing a call for a militant antifascist night march.
At 7:30 pm, Donald Trump is Scheduled to speak. At 8:00 pm on April 29th, we will begin assembling our forces on the intersection of Peffer St and Wallace St, behind the park. We will gather in strength and in number until 8:30 pm, at which point we will begin to march.
Due to threats of violence from Trump supporters, we encourage people to show up prepared to physically defend the march, wear black and cover your faces.
We ask for street medics to show up prepared to provide medical treatment, as well as war drummers, street performers, and musicians.

Our Camp is in danger from both Sunoco and the Police. The situation is developing rapidly and we need your support! Stay tuned for more updates and help spread the word about this camp.
With construction season upon us, Camp White Pine is digging in our heels to fight the Mariner East 2 pipeline in the Susquehanna Valley of central PA.
The Mariner East 2 is a 350+ mile long Sunoco pipeline project, comprised of two new pipelines starting in southeastern Ohio, and running through northern West Virginia and across the length of Pennsylvania. These lines will carry natural gas liquids (NGLs) like butane, ethane, and propane to an export facility along the Delaware River in Marcus Hook, PA.
Resistance to the Mariner East 2 is spreading, with impacted residents and organizers working in communities all along the proposed route. Sunoco Logistics has no regard for the beauty of Appalachia, the preservation of its diverse ecosystems and the safety of the people who live here.
This is a special night where we can all come together and enjoy eachothers art, music and company while raising money for Phily heads who were arrested protesting the inauguration in DC on J20. Some awesome businesses, bands and artists have helped contribute to set up this RAFFLE/SHOW and it is gonna be very cool and you just might leave with some awesome stuff.

Things have been busy. Our apologies for the irregular updates. Here is a quick roundup of some of what has been going on here in Philly in the past few weeks.
Rumors were confirmed on social media that Cliff Warby, longtime Neo-Nazi and former drummer for Condemned 84 and current drummer of RAC band Para elite, was knocked out and hospitalized by Anti-Fascist punx at the U.K. Subs show at Voltage Lounge on April 7th. Additionally, Warby’s adult Nazi daughter Aryan Warby (yea, really) was also knocked out.
Witnesses do not recall any brass knuckles; just good follow through.recent pic of Warby. note the totenkompf buckle.Warby sig-heiling in 1986
Warby was living in the Philly area recently but appears to be living near the Jersey shore.
On Saturday, April 8th, Antifa Philadelphia tabled alongside the Wooden Shoe Books, Bindlestiff Books, and others at a book and bake sale fundraiser for J20 defendants at the ASpace.
Over $700 was raised for J20 defendants from Philly. Thanks to everyone who came out, tabled, donated items to sell, or otherwise contributed!
A few MAGA types also made a short appearance at the Philly Tax march carrying Trump flags on April 15th before being chased to the waiting arms of their police protection and then making their escape. It is unknown if they were the same ones who were attacked or not.
Trumplodytes trolling at the Philly Tax March
Finally, Due to overwhelming response from regular folks donating between 1 and 50 dollars, Antifa Philadelphia has managed to raise over $3500 so far for the Richard Spencer Puncher Fund.
At the time of this writing, there are only 4 few days left before the “bounty” put on the right-wing crowdfunding site Wesearchr expires. So hopefully the Puncher will not need this money, and it will be divided up among J20 defendants and other Anti-Fascist causes.
