Dan Smeriglio Connection With Neo Nazi Skin Heads
On Monday May 10, 2010, ALIPAC received information that Dan Smeriglio who has no group, website, accounts, funds, etc... yet operates under the moniker Voice Of The People USA had no permit for a June 5 event in Arizona and had connections to neo-Nazis and neo-Nazi rock groups on his Facebook page promoting an event in Phoenix on June 5.
While ALIPAC had worked with Dan Smeriglio some over the last three years, we never had any solid evidence he was connected with or working with skinhead groups, until May 10, 2010. Although, we must mention that racist skinheads have shown up at and caused trouble at many of Smeriglio's events in Pennsylvania. Smeriglio has always denied any ties to these groups.
Despite our direct complaints on May 10, and our departure to a new event date on May 11, the neo-Nazi rock group SAGA continued to be listed on Dan Smeriglio's Facebook page until May 13. Dan Smeriglio only removed the group neo-Nazi group SAGA and Steve Smith, founder of a skinhead group called Keystone United, from his Facebook page after being confronted further.
Dan Smeriglio has known Steve Smith and about Steve Smith's position with Keystone United skinheads because they appeared together at a small rally in Hazelton, PA on November 14, 2009
Illegal Immigration groups released this news clip to attack ALIPAC. It shows four white nationalists at Dan Smeriglio's rally, including Steve Smith who appears to help lead the event with a bullhorn.

After this video came out, William Gheen of ALIPAC confronted Dan Smeriglio and he claimed that he did not know Steve Smith or the white nationalists or of their affiliations.
Yet, long after that confrontation Dan Smeriglio added Steve Smith as his Friend on Facebook and the two were seen communicating with each other in relation to politicians in PA who are against illegal immigration.

Closer analysis of Steve Smith's Facebook profile indicates he lists his favorite musical groups as SAGA.
Dan Smeriglio has first musical group of preference listed by name as SAGA, up until May 13 and only removed Steve Smith and Saga after numerous demands by leaders planning rallies in Arizona.

Dan Smeriglio's Facebook profile has been advertising the neo-Nazi rock groups SAGA up until a few days ago. Dan's Facebook profile is the main communications channel running a page to drive a rally on June 5 in Phoenix AZ in support of SB 1070.
The page is called "OFFICIAL: ARIZONA RALLY & FREEDOM MARCH ACROSS AMERICA"

Dan Smeriglio and Steve Smith were seen conversing with each other on the rally page two weeks ago, but we do not have the screen shots and those posts have recently been erased.
While there are several SAGA Fan Pages on Facebook, the SAGA links on both Dan Smeriglio's and Steve Smith's Facebook profiles links to the very same SAGA Fan Page found at this link...

Here is what Wikipedia says about Smeriglio and Smith's favorite band SAGA.

Here are some examples of SAGA's music videos on YouTube that shows her performing for the NSF "National Socialist Front". The NSF is a neo-Nazi political group in Sweden.

This SAGA should not be confused with the defunct Canadian band from the early 80's called Saga.
ALIPAC is pulling out of any rallies in Arizona in the month of June after discovering that retired Congressman Tom Tancredo is working behind the scenes to try and direct leaders, candidates, and groups away from an alternate event planned on June 12 and into Dan Smeriglio's rally in Phoenix on June 5.
We feel that Tancredo's assertions that there are no serious concerns about Smeriglio or bringing candidates into the June 5 rally are false.
Here is ALIPAC's announcement that links to this evidence page...
