Anthime Joseph "Tim" Gionet (born 1987 or 1988),[1] more commonly known as Baked Alaska, is an American far-right media personality[2][3][4][5] who gained notoriety through his advocacy on behalf of alt-right and white supremacist ideology.[6][7][8][9][10] He has also used the alias Tim Treadstone.[10]

Prior to his 2016 transformation into an alt-right activist, Gionet was initially a rapper and Internet prankster. He later worked as a commentator for BuzzFeed, where he supported libertarian and progressive political positions and marched in support of Black Lives Matter.[10] In 2016, Gionet turned to the politics of Donald Trump and the alt-right in what he described as a rejection of "political correctness".[10] By 2017, Gionet's political views had radicalized; that year, he began to use his social media platform and Internet activism to promote racist and antisemitic ideologies. He also played a role in the 2017 white supremacist Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.

At the beginning of 2019, Gionet claimed to have abandoned the alt-right and released videos in which he denounced the alt-right and meme culture as sources of terrorism and violence. As part of an attempt to rebrand himself, he gave a series of interviews condemning the alt-right and expressed plans to establish a non-profit organization in order to teach anti-racism to white supremacists. However, in November of the same year, Gionet reverted to his earlier politics, professing far-right ideology and collaborating with the white nationalist Groyper movement.[11] He then began to earn notoriety for his livestreams, in which he would antagonize or harass bystanders, resulting in an assault charge in December 2020.[12][13][14]

Originally known as an extremely online personality, Baked Alaska was gradually banned from most mainstream social media platforms.[15] In January 2021, Gionet livestreamed the U.S. Capitol building breach by a pro-Trump mob, which was found to be a violation of his release.[16] It was later reported that Gionet's footage was used by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to identify other trespassers.[17] Gionet was later arrested by federal agents that month in connection with his activities at the Capitol.[18][19] He was released pending trial and continued livestreaming while facing federal charges.[20][21] On January 10, 2023, Gionet was sentenced to 60 days in jail.[22]
