JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. -- U.S. Sen. Claire McCaskill, U.S. Rep. William Lacy Clay and other top Missouri Democrats called Thursday for the resignation of fellow Democrat Maria Chappelle-Nadal, a state senator from University City, Mo., for posting a Facebook comment stating: "I hope Trump is assassinated!" “I condemn it," McCaskill said in a brief emailed statement. "It's outrageous. And she should resign.” "We can have differences in our country, but no one should encourage political violence. The senator should resign," he said. Chappell-Nadal responded in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch to calls for her to resign. University City, Mo. is about...

FP: ...One of your special expertises is on how leftists, and some of our European allies, have chosen to side with our enemy. Now, after the Madrid terror attack, we see another European ally succumb to appeasement.... Hanson: Well, even before the terrorists' communiques were fully disseminated the Spanish electorate voted for appeasement and a socialist government that would distance itself from the United States. This is the most profound example of capitulation since Daladier and Chamberlain and sets a truly awful example... Worse, this was not panic from a fickle leader but an overwhelming expression of public fear and...

More than ever, old monuments to famous white American men are being threatened in the name of progress. Naturally, this has become a rallying cry on the far right, with plenty of encouragement from the most powerful man in the world. At the same unhinged press conference in which Donald Trump again blamed both sides for the deadly violence in Charlottesville last weekend, he also painted a picture of a slippery slope where those fighting for the removal of Confederate statues today might be destroying tributes to more mainstream slave-owning icons like George Washington tomorrow. He lamented this prospect once...

Researchers say they have found a new clue into the mysterious exodus of ancient cliff-dwelling people from the Mesa Verde area of Colorado more than 700 years ago: DNA from the bones of domesticated turkeys. The DNA shows the Mesa Verde people raised turkeys that had telltale similarities to turkeys kept by ancient people in the Rio Grande Valley of northern New Mexico — and that those birds became more common in New Mexico about the same time the Mesa Verde people were leaving their cliff dwellings, according to a paper published last month in the journal PLoS One. That...

9/17/17. Madison, Wisconsin. Leftist mayor Madison Paul Soglin announced today that he will have the informational monument at the city’s Confederate Rest cemetery removed, the northern-most Confederate cemetery in the country. The cemetery holds the remains of southern soldiers who died while imprisoned at civil war Camp Randall, the current site of the Wisconsin Badger football stadium. The cemetery is respectfully tended and maintained, and services are held with graves decorated on Memorial Day. The plaque to be removed explains the origin of the cemetery and who lies buried there.

The tragedy in Charlottesville, Virginia, could have been an occasion to stop and consider how the tolerance for politically correct violence and politically correct hatred is leading the nation toward civil war. Instead, the media and the political left have turned this incident into the biggest fake news story of the summer, transforming its real lessons into a morality play that justifies war against the political right, and against white people generally. The organizers of the "Unite the Right" demonstration in Charlottesville were repellent racists. But they came to defend a historic monument honoring a complex man and cause, and...

Institutional racism rests at the heart of the left and black privilege. Please feel free to post this list for your sniveling libturds to suck on. Here we have an extensive, inclusive, list exposing the heart of the left's institutional racism !! Bringing awareness to “Black Privileges” the same public way they point out other peoples' “privileges” will help them realize what they have taken for granted and are intentionally ignoring. Are they enjoying Western (white) style clothes, housing, education, language, society, culture, medical services, technology, freedoms, cultural perks etc. ? Do they feel honored living in a country built...

On numerous housing estates throughout London, the rows of black steel and mesh railings guarding red brick mansion blocks appear, at first glance, little more than a quirk of post-war architectural design. However, unbeknown to thousands of passersby each day, those sometimes rusting or buckled fences were in fact the emergency stretchers that helped to save the lives of those injured during the Blitz. Now, a campaign has been launched to protect and restore these metal fences, mainly found on estates in South London, that had served so well as stretchers during World War II. Rosie Shaw, founder of the...

Word Origin and History for fascism n. 1922, originally used in English 1920 in its Italian form (see fascist ). Applied to similar groups in Germany from 1923; applied to everyone since the rise of the Internet. A form of political behavior marked by obsessive preoccupation with community decline, humiliation or victimhood and by compensatory cults of unity, energy and purity, in which a mass-based party of committed nationalist militants, working in uneasy but effective collaboration with traditional elites, abandons democratic liberties and pursues with redemptive violence and without ethical or legal restraints goals of internal cleansing and external expansion....

Isn’t it funny how we NEVER hear new reports that a Neo-NAZI biker bar was specifically targeted and burned down by Anti-Fa? Or that the KKK was having a meeting somewhere and all of a sudden Anti-Fa jumped all the skinheads and beat the crap out of them...???? Isn’t it ALSO funny how Anti-Fa always seems to show up where there are News cameras rolling to get the pictures of scrawny looking beta males and other retards wearing NAZI paraphernalia for them to “fight”... Gee, you would think that if Anti-Fa was REALLY REALLY interested in actually fighting ACTUAL NAZI...

One example that reveals Suleiman’s problematic views regarding Jews and Judaism is a lecture he gave in January 2016 on the following topic: “Masjid Al-Aqsa: The occupied sanctuary.” The advertisement for the event noted that Suleiman’s “passion for this topic comes naturally” because he is “the son of Palestinian parents.” In a promotional clip, Suleiman himself emphasized that it was important to “bring the religious element back to the discussion of the occupied sanctuary;” he denounced the “brutal occupation” of Al-Aqsa, claiming that “religious rights” of Muslims were being “taken away.” He illustrated this alleged denial of Muslim “religious rights”...

Best Defense is on summer hiatus. During this restful spell we offer re-runs from the past 12 months. This item originally ran on Jun. 22.During the bloody battle of Okinawa, late in World War II, Army Lt. Gen. Simon B. Buckner Jr., saw a Marine unit flying the Confederate flag over a position. Buckner, himself the son of a Confederate general, ordered it taken down. “Americans from all over are involved in this battle,” he said. And he wasn’t the son of just any Confederate general. His father, Gen. Simon Bolivar Buckner Sr., was the officer who was defeated by...

Leo Twiggs, a son of the South, sees life as a series of crossings. That's why the 83-year-old artist has spent four decades painting a recurring symbol: The Confederate flag. He has finished hundreds of them. He says he paints the Confederate flag as a symbol because he thinks "the South is full of contradictions. We've got Southern hospitality and then we have segregation, and they seem at opposite ends." Charges sought against those who toppled Confederate statue in N.C. That flag resurfaced in Charlottesville over the weekend. strassmann-artist-confederate-flag-2017-8-15.jpg Artist Leo Twiggs says he paints the Confederate flag as a...

The Impact of Solar Eclipses for History Evolution News | @DiscoveryCSC August 16, 2017 When the sky goes dark at mid-day, people notice. Because some observers wrote down what they saw, and because the clockwork of the heavens is so precise, historians can nail down important dates for chronological research. Human responses to eclipses are interesting to think about. These cosmic events are rare enough for any spot on the earth to strike fear and wonder in the eyes of anyone unfamiliar with their causes. Joe Rao relates the story at Space.com about how Christopher Columbus, aware of an approaching...
