White Nationalist Podcaster and Author "Borzoi Boskovic" Revealed: Meet Jesse Daniel Ogden

I ended up encouraging her to write to American Sun about her experiences as a nurse, so the three articles written under Claire Nightingale are her. It was an open secret among people who knew us, but no point in trying to hide it now.

 

Naturally, we went looking for this piece of writing. It turns out "Claire Nightingale" had written three pieces for "The American Sun." In addition to writing articles for this right wing blog, "Claire Nightingale" also appeared in white nationalist podcasts. In one of these podcasts, "Hyperpodcastism," she appeared with her husband "Borzoi" and neo-Nazi former paramedic (who regularly compared black patients to animals) and podcaster Alex McNabb.

"Claire Nightingale" was very aware of her husband's white nationalist activities and was (and is) a willing participant herself. In fact, "Borzoi" pointed out that she first reached out to him after reading his fear-mongering article "The Feasts of Shame" in which he (writing as "John Chapman") wrote:

…A fitting tribute to the conquering liberal and ethnic tribes who see what the vanquished value as forfeit to them.

They want your guns because you value them.

They want your kids to be transgender because you value them.

They want your families dying from drugs because you value them.

They want your kids sexually available to others to flex on you.

They want your daughters in pornography not for profit but so that they can be filmed as subjugated to a foreign tribe for the entire world to see.

Fortunately for us, "Claire Nightingale," like her husband, enjoyed talking.

We learned from her writings and appearances on various podcasts that she was an experienced registered nurse who had worked in intensive care, emergency room and surgical settings but most recently worked as a travel nurse. We learned that both of her parents were physicians and that she was from Tennessee. She had commonly used the screen name "cookingpots" across a variety of internet platforms and social media. We put together these disparate pieces of information to construct a profile, eventually leading us to a likely candidate for her true identity: Rachel Elizabeth Carter.

We verified that Rachel Elizabeth Carter had nursing credentials in several states. In some states she was licensed under a surname from a previous marriage, "Allen."

A recent nursing license for the state of Michigan (again, under a previous married surname) was granted on May 18, 2020, a few months into forming a relationship with "Borzoi."

One of the states in which Rachel Carter was licensed to be a nurse was New Hampshire. We were able to place Rachel Carter in New Hampshire when we found a libertarian podcast "Declare Your Independence with Ernest Hancock,"  in which she and her then-husband tell their story of moving to New Hampshire from California. We also found that she had marked herself as attending the 2016 PorcFest XIII on the website sched.com.

We were confident that we had correctly identified "Borzoi"'s wife, but a major life event for both "Borzoi" and "Borzette" (a pet name "Borzoi" often uses for her) would verify our conclusion as well as lead us to the identity of "Borzoi Boskovic."

Borzoi's Bundle of Joy

Late in 2020 "Borzoi" had made a big announcement that he and his wife were expecting a new addition to the Boskovic family. The news was met with great enthusiasm among his neo-Nazi fan base. Even the Romanian neo-Nazi Diana "Pikachu" Brancoveanu (whom we reported on earlier) set up a GoFundMe campaign to raise money for the couple.

"Borzoi" wrote at length on the birth of their child on in a public post on poa.st. While we won't go into the details of the post here, it is significant that he wrote the post on 15 April 2021. As it happens, we located a baby registry belonging to a "Rachel and Jesse Ogden." The projected arrival date was April 16, 2021.

It looked like we had found our dog.

Jesse Daniel Ogden

Jesse Ogden graduated from Hiram College in Ohio with an English degree and even worked as an editorial assistant on the Hiram Poetry Review, as credited in the Spring 2007 issue.

Judging by his blog, Ogden had both an interest in writing and a political awareness, although it seemed that his views at that time had not yet formed into the extreme right-wing fascist ideology of "Borzoi Boskovic." Even earlier, while in high school, Ogden was a frequent contributor to the anarcho-capitalist website www.lewrockell.com.

Ogden wrote of his dissatisfaction with modern society and government dependence early on, as evident in this 2003 article as he was beginning his senior year at Churchill High School in Livonia, Michigan:

What happens when you think that things in society need to be radically updated, that our entire culture needs to be changed, that traditional families are outdated and oppressive and need to be changed, that we can build a hip Garden of Eden on earth with the help of government? You get the largely problematic society we have, and the troubled and, for lack of a better word, screwed-up youths and youth culture I have grown up with these seventeen years.

After his graduation from Hiram College, Ogden spent some time teaching English in South Korea, as indicated by statements made by "Borzoi" and an online profile on the SignalHire website (now deleted). In one recent post on poa.st, Jesse "Borzoi" Ogden claimed that he had spent three years working in Korea.

While his political formative years leaned heavily towards free-market libertarianism, Ogden's politics would eventually turn much more extreme and so would his writings. Ogden frequently wrote under the pseudonym "John Chapman" on his own Race Borz blog as well as other extreme right-wing websites like The American Sun.

As "John Chapman," Ogden wrote a long-winded foreword for a version of Hitler by Wyndham Lewis published by the neo-Nazi small press Antelope Hill Publishing. In it he wrote:

Time Magazine has earned eternal enmity for once naming Adolf Hitler their Man of the Year. Their only error was in not naming him the Man of the Century.

We found a post on Instagram made by a relative of Jesse Ogden in which the relative poses for a photo with the new addition to the family in front of a well-stocked book case. While we weren't able to confirm all the titles in the book case,  multiple copies of the book Cultured Grugs are plainly visible.

Additionally, for the proverbial "icing on the cake," we found that Jesse Ogden had inadvertently identified himself on his own blog raceborz.com. We found his name in the blog source code's HTML image metadata tags.

In the event Ogden decides to delete his blog to cover his tracks, this will still be viewable in the Wayback Machine archives, which also preserves the source code of the page.

Jesse "Borzoi" Ogden

Current information suggests that he is no longer working for this company. Being a long-time Michigan resident, Jesse Ogden is likely still in Michigan (likely around the Indian Village area of Detroit), where Rachel Elizabeth Ogden (aka Carter, Allen) maintains an active nursing license in Michigan. We expect that our neo-Nazi lovebirds remain in the Detroit area due in no small part to the fact that they recently joined Detroit's Old St. Mary's church, as indicated by the April 4, 2021 church newsletter (which has been removed, but we have preserved it here).

In the Dog House for Borzoi

Jesse Ogden has not found success as a writer under his own name. Under the pen name "John Chapman" and Antelope Hill Publishing's support, however, he is attempting to earn some literary legitimacy. It remains to be seen how far he takes it, now that "Borzoi Boskovic"'s identity is no longer a secret.
