against a group of white nationalists, neo-Nazis and organizers of the 2017 Charlottesville, Virginia,"Unite the Right" rally, Republican leaders, once again, will not take the opportunity to repudiate the alt-right.By now, this is an old story with a familiar pattern: denial, silence and historical revisionism.
They could have drawn a bright, red line against political violence — and attempts to normalize violence.Instead, for the most part, Republicans either looked the other way, kept quiet or went along with Trump’s gaslighting denials that he had, in fact, said what he said. In the Charlottesville suit, we heard all the usual rationalizations and defenses: that it was about free speech, the violence was in self-defense and that no one could have known it would have a deadly outcome.During the trial, one of the rally's participants, Michael Hill, the president of the League of the South, was asked about a pledge he had posted online. He was
They’ll never “repudiate” their base.
Wonder why?
'Opportunity' implies this is a 'chance' they would like to have taken advantage of. Terrorist leaders don't bitch out their cells for acting upon the ideology the leaders have fed them.
I believe this is a tragedy and it’s sad that there are so many evil people in the world.I can’t help but see the similarities between what happened in VA and then what happened last summer with the BLM riots. That’s not ok either,and I hope there are civil suits for them too.
There’s no honest good can from this!
22 PEOPLE PEACEFUL MARCH, RABBI SOROS PD. ANTIFA BLM BELT LOOPS MATTER ATTACKED. WHY NOT THEY PROTEST NEXT DAY.SOME IN USA WANT HISTORY STATUES STAND+SIGN ON ED. NOT CONGRESS 1928 VOTED TO ERECT TRIBUTE DEAD 750,000 WHITE MEN 99% DIED TO FREE BLKS SLAVES!
Disgraceful much?
No moral compass.
I miss the old days when racist people weren't afraid to say how they felt. What happens guys, did your balls drop?
Of course not, this is a faction of the GOP/GQP.
Denounce Joy Reed first.
Speaking of sees no evil:
They lost the war, there fearless leader lost the election. Now there just lost.
That’s because that’s what Republicans really are.
“Leaders” only in title. They are cowardly, anti-Democracy insurrectionists who serve themselves and hate.
I think I saw this photo a long time ago.
Just a reminder, was banned, by the court, from the courtroom based on their questionable reporting. Not everything they report is accurate.
That's because the GOP is the Alt Right.
They are them. Self-repudiation won’t get them where they’re trying to go.
Democrats do the same, what Democrat has even knowledged the Wisconsin drive-over, a racist act
Let them be and simply avoid their propaganda machine giving them so much attention is demonstrating they are important when they really aren't they are flies on a wall and when they invaded the table well everyone knows the answer.
GOP is the Alt-right today.
Why would they? They've made clear that the GOP is the party for modern day white supremacists. White votes matter.
The United States is on the road towards its own destruction, and it's probably better for the rest of the world to witness America destroy itself because it will serve as a reminder of what happens when liberties are taken for granted.
Anything on the Black supremacist In Wisconsin. Who killed 7 white people?
It’s time for the Dems be more aggressive in calling the Republicans for what they are, a party that condones autocracy and racism
damn near homeless broke single. Dude smash a car into a crowd. School church shooting. Sports player beat women. One cries for been called names. “Jews will not replace us” like confusing a mestiza euro with a Czech blonde. not everything should be home.Inb4 survivalist podcast
“Republican leaders, once again, will not take the opportunity to repudiate the alt-right” - because it’s who they are. The GOP cultivated the racists since the 60’s when the south started voting Republican.
White supremacists gravitate to the GOP for a reason. They tolerate them with a tacit approval and encourage them with their silence.
Organizing for political left & right folks to come together for meal & socializing, even in small groups? It’s difficult to hate someone you know, and have broken bread with. We need to hear of such attempts in contrast & counter attack! to the political & cultural vitriol.
Anyone can be proud if their race. Nobody has to love other races. Most democrats dont even date non whites.
LOL these your experts? How has this organization not been shut down yet.
The MSM keeps pushing this eventual civil war between left, right, black and white, but with civil war comes outside entities who will take advantage of that situation for their own benefit, and then where will we be? Under someone else’s rule perhaps?
And MSNBC has completely moved on from the racist that killed 6 & wounded 48 in Waukesha, hmmmm, I wonder why?
They are the far-right
They never admit they are wrong. Besides, they would then lose the support of the majority of their followers.
Mate, there's no Republicans that support racism. The vast majority of Trump supporters also don't support racism. Trump, Cruz and a myriad of others have already repudiated racism too. But you won't repudiate blm or antifa and they've done more damage.
They've really embraced the racist leanings that they used to keep buried just below the surface
It's funny to see people showing support for the neo nazi movement and not knowing that Hitler would have killed them too because they don't look like his vision for the new world. Please know what you are following. Lmaooooo , spending time in Germany in the air force I saw it
