I've always had my had my 'reservations' about this character, so let's take a closer look: Martin claims to have been born in 1971 and raised by his "German" grandparents (reportedly members of the pro-Nazi American Bund in the 1930s). Despite this he has the physiognomy of the classic Amerimutt (Le 56% Face) meme (above). I'm not even kidding. Just look at the photos on his own website (yes, those are the good ones!!!).
During the rise of the Alt-Right, he managed to pass himself off as a kind of "Palaeo-Nat," a racial nationalist whose style harks back to the 1960s. He was therefore separate from and critical of the Alt-Right. Despite adopting this apparently "no nonsense" racist persona, Martin nevertheless has been friendly throughout his career with a LOT of diversity, not least himself.
Not only this but he also seems he has made quite a bit of money from Federally-related legal work. He is definitely not shy of boasting about his worldly success on social media.
These apparently inconsistent elements are the main reason that many people consider him to "glow in the dark."
Nowadays he pops up occasionally on the Luke Ford show, where he takes relatively nuanced anti-Semitic positions that are reminiscent of boomer Wignats and Palaeocons, although he claims to be a Gen-Xer like Richard Spencer. He also has an interest in and liking for Nazi Germany and a dislike for England. On the Ukraine War he is a typical Putinchud, and has even invested in a Russian flag.

56% sounds rather generous
He has been sharply critical of the America First movement. In February 2018 he referred to Fuentes by racial slurs and called him a "Jew Agent" (Note: "Movement Critic" in the linked article is none other than Rodders).
Martin claims to be a veteran (the Great American "victory" of Somalia) with a large family, which he says is "racially pure." But, wouldn't you know it, there are those who dispute this.
In particular, it has been pointed out that his wife is an Eastern Cherokee. Martin denies this, but due to this allegation, his detractors have mocked him with the nickname "Wounded Knee."
His actual content is minimal and mainly of a gossipy trollish comment thread variety, which is also something of a red flag, although it may just be the innocent result of a cantankerous personality and lack of intellect.
He ran a blog and a podcast, All Nationalist Network, both of which are now largely dormant. He has a generally good speaking manner, and, as we have observed above, the perfect face for radio.
