"The Active Club movement is growing exponentially. A new report by the nonprofit Counter Extremism Project, reveals that there are at least 46 active clubs across 34 states in the U.S. The 'transnational' network also has chapters in 15 countries, including Canada, and across Europe, with 23 chapters in France alone.  Alexander Ritzmann, who conducted the CEP research, describes the groups as 'trying to build a militia' in plain sight."
