David Duke wants the world to know that he supports Minnesota Rep. Keith Ellison’s attempt to become the next chairman of the Democratic National Committee. The former leader of the Ku Klux Klan likely complicated Mr. Ellison’s professional goals Monday by backing his efforts while alluding to claims by critics that he is anti-Semitic. “Keith Ellison, Sally Boynton Brown or Jehmu Greene would all be excellent choices — I really like Keith though… I mean, at least he knows,” Mr. Duke tweeted. The “at least he knows” remark appears to be a reference to Mr. Ellison’s past with the Nation...

Ana Navarro told her co-hosts Monday on ABC’s “The View” that President Donald Trump’s administration welcomed “racists.” Navarro said, “The way JD Vance, you know, talked about it, ‘I don’t think stupid social media activity should ruin a kid’s life.’ Okay. This wasn’t years and years ago. These tweets, they were months ago. So, if he’s such a kid, what the hell is he doing having access to sensitive information at practically every department in the federal government? She continued, “But, you know racism like this could ruin being subjected to racism, being the victim of racism, of discrimination, of...

Thirty years after Florida required schools to teach African American history, how the subject is taught remains inconsistent across Florida classrooms, a review by The Associated Press has found.

Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.) commended President Biden Monday for commuting the sentences of 37 federal inmates on death row, arguing that capital punishment is “racist.” *** Pressley, 50, described the 82-year-old commander in chief’s decision to spare dozens of convicted murderers and rapists from death as a “historic and groundbreaking act of compassion that will save lives, address the deep racial disparities in our criminal legal system, and send a powerful message about redemption, decency, and humanity.” “The death penalty is a racist, flawed, and fundamentally unjust punishment that has no place in any society,” the congresswoman argued. “For far...

Now that the Republicans have regained a majority in the US Senate, Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) is urging them "to embrace bipartisanship. I realize this may be hard after we branded them as racists, misogynists, fascists and Nazis, but I want to remind them that this is what we say about Republicans in every election. It's just a political ploy that didn't work this time. It is not an accurate portrayal of our true feelings about our friends across the aisle." "Sure, there are some hard-core right-wing senators, but there are many more who helped us ensure that necessary...

Video footage has captured the horrifying moment a man creeped up behind a woman before knocking her unconscious in a viscous broad daylight attack. An unidentified woman fell victim to the violent assault in downtown Dallas on Thursday afternoon in what authorities describe as an apparently 'unprovoked attack.' The incident occurred around 1:15pm at the bustling intersection of Elm Street and Field Street.

Hot August Nights announced Sunday it has revoked registrations for people shown in a Friday confrontation in a Virginia City viral video. The Storey County Sheriff’s Office said Saturday the incident is also being investigated. In it, TikTok user unclerickd1 protests what he described as comments by at least one person in Virginia City that there was a “hanging tree” for people like him. The sheriff’s office said it does not “condone or support racism, inequality, or hate speech.” Hot August Nights said those in the video have been identified. “We want to clarify that there were no Hot August...

A pair of black female activists, [Cora Masters Barry; Melanie Campbell] who have met with Vice President Harris several times and previously vowed to get “real serious” about helping her become the next president, could alienate some of the “White women for Kamala” supporters with their past rhetoric as they mobilize ahead of November’s election. *** However, the unearthed comments from the two activists could cause some internal tension for the Harris campaign as they look to mobilize different voting blocs and have called for “Unity.” “[Trump] did that, and we’re sitting here talking about the White women. F–k the...

The UK teen accused of fatally stabbing three little girls and wounding 10 others at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class was identified for the first time Thursday as Axel Rudakubana. Rudakubana, 17, was born in Cardiff, Wales, to Rwandan parents, according to the BBC. He is charged with the murders of Bebe King, 6, Elsie Dot Stancombe, 7, and Alice Dasilva Aguiar, 9, as well as the attempted murder of eight other children, a yoga teacher and a businessman at the kids’ event Monday in Southport. Liverpool Judge Andrew Menary said that despite not being an adult, the boy can...

"Karens for Kamala?" actress Connie Britton joked. Britton was one of two celebrities, several politicians, and, reportedly, more than 100,000 others on a Zoom call advertised as a way for white women to "show up for Kamala Harris." What transpired echoed advocacy around Hillary Clinton eight years ago. It was also oddly reminiscent in tone, if not substance, of missteps we've seen from conservatives like Sen. J.D. Vance (R–Ohio), in which those who aren't on board with your side are assumed to simply be deficient human beings. *** The virtual gathering was organized by gun control activist and Moms Demand...

WASHINGTON — As more and more Democrats call on President Joe Biden to drop out of the 2024 race, members of the Congressional Black Caucus, a key group of allies on Capitol Hill, remain largely supportive of the president but concerned that the ongoing pressure may prove fatal for his campaign and damage the party overall. “I have loyalty to Biden, no question about it,” said longtime Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, D-Mo. “As things stand, I want him to win. But if he says, ‘You know, I’ve been listening and chatting with people and I don’t want to go any further,’...

President Biden told a black radio station in an interview released Thursday that he understood their struggle for representation — because he didn’t think Catholics could be president before John F. Kennedy was elected more than six decades ago. Biden, 81, told Pennsylvania radio host Andrea Lawful-Sanders that he knew what his nomination of Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court meant to “a young girl who is in school and having trouble.” “I looked at John Kennedy and said, ‘Well, he — John — he got elected. Why can’t I get elected?'” the president said. “People need things to...

MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace said Monday on her show “Deadline” that it was not accurate to say everyone in the Republican Party is a conspiracy theorist but “as with racist, all of the conspiracy theorists are Republicans.” Wallace said, “Every single candidate to be the Republican Party nominee to run in Georgia’s Third Congressional District rushed to endorse not just Trump but the lies he told, the lies that led to a deadly insurrection. The eager embrace of the election conspiracies now clearly a prerequisite to be elected in Republican Party politics.”

A first-term member of the Squad and a rising star within the progressive coalition, Lee will go on to compete in the blue district in the general election, having withstood Edgewood Councilmember Bhavini Patel’s primary challenge. Lee was a top target this cycle of Democrats and Republicans alike looking to oust the left-wing congresswoman from her western Pennsylvania seat.

The liberal actor declared, 'In all honesty, I have educated myself so much since 2016' --------------------------------------------- Comedian and pro-Israel advocate Michael Rapaport shredded what the modern Democratic Party has become and explained why he is increasingly considering voting for Trump in a new interview. As part of a series about the Israel-Hamas conflict that rages in the Middle East, an interviewer from Visegrad24 spoke to Rapaport on the shores of an Israeli beach and asked, "Have your political views shifted? You’ve been a very vocal anti-Trump - probably the most vocal anti-Trump celebrity out there. Have your views shifted? I...

Today, the NAACP sent a letter to current and prospective members of the NCAA, calling for Black student athletes to reconsider their decisions to attend public colleges and universities in Florida. The letter comes following recent news that the University of Florida had dismantled its DEI department at the direction of the DeSantis administration's Stop WOKE Act. The bill, which was passed last year, prohibits the use of state funds for any diversity, equity, and inclusion programs. While the University of Florida has been the first to follow the directive, Florida is home to some of the nation's largest public...

President Biden told Democratic donors in California late Wednesday that he “served with real racists” during his decades in the US Senate — but Republicans in the 118th Congress “are worse.” “I’ve been a senator since ‘72. I’ve served with real racists. I’ve served with Strom Thurmond,” Biden said at an event in San Francisco, referring to the late segregationist senator from South Carolina. “I’ve served with all these guys that have set terrible records on race. But guess what? These guys [serving Republicans] are worse. These guys do not believe in basic democratic principles.”
