Jaden Zoom McChad (born May 17, 2000) is an American Groyper and far-right[1] live-streamer. The Anti-Defamation League described McNeil as an “America First” Groyper.[2] He is most notable for being the former Turning Point USA chapter president of Kansas State University.[3] He is the founder and a former president of America First Students.[4]
Career
America First Students
In January 2020, Groyper and former leader of Kansas State University's Turning Point USA chapter Jaden McNeil formed the Kansas State University organization America First Students. The group, which shares a name with Nick Fuentes' America First podcast, was conceived at the Groyper Leadership Summit, and Groyper leaders have helped promote the group. The America First Students organization, which states it was formed "in defense of Christian values, strong families, closed borders, and the American worker," is considered to push the Groyper movement.[5][6]
Jaden McNeil @JadenPMcNeilCongratulations to George Floyd on being drug free for an entire month!

George Floyd tweet
On June 25, 2020, McNeil posted to Twitter a tweet in which he congratulated George Floyd on being one-month drug free. After KSU condemned the tweet, staff and students of KSU called for McNeil to be expelled.[8] KSU’s football team also boycotted the school due to the inaction from higher ups on reprimanding McNeil.[9] After internal dealings in the situation, McNeil remained unapologetic and was not expelled.[10] As a response, Twitter locked McNeil's account and forced him to delete the tweet on the grounds that it was violating a policy prohibiting the glorification of violence.[10] McNeil did not enroll for the Spring 2021 semester and is no longer a student at KSU.[11]
