Page 64 - Hate Group News Today

Have gone on in our commonwealth and wonderful to see everyone coming today. the president easily could have at least retweeted what ivanka trump his daughter tweeted yesterday. mentioned all of the hate groups by name. he didnt do that. was silent on twitter all of yesterday. whatever anybody goes after, you know how he tweets. tweets very, very quickly. how do you explain? it took until today, until the noon hour on monday, to utter those words? >> i think, wolf, what we saw today in his state...

It is, which is terrorism? >> i think we do, andrea. this was domestic terrorism. it was the same type of evil tactics, using a car as a weapon that we have seen in europe. and for a presidential candidate that was so obsessed about calling out barack obama for failing to use the term islamic terrorists, that same standard should be applied when were seeing foreign based terrorism take place here in america or when we see what we saw on saturday, a hate group that practiced domestic terrorism. >...

Neo confederate groups. 193 black separateist groups. 52 anti-lgbt groups. 10 1 p anti-muslim groups. and for those of you who cant decide which one to join. 100 general hate groups. a drop in 2016. the ku klux klan, of course, is the most infamous, the oldest american hate group. african americans have typically been the clans target. they have also attacked jewish people, immigrants and gaze and lesbians. the southern poverty law center reports that the most drastic growth was the nearly tripl...

Morally right, and in this case, president trump needs to provide moral clarity on what were facing. >> david gergen, thank you for joining us this weekend. >> thank you so much. >> still ahead in the newsroom, mixed messages. the white house issuing a new statement today on the violence in virginia, but it didnt come from the president. plus the images from charlottesville, terrifying, disturbing all speak to a former neo-nazi skinhead about what life is like inside a hate group. the crest of a...

Nationalist think tank. during his speech right after president trump became president, he had this speech saying that we have won and used nazi words saying, hail trump, hail victory and people came up and did the nazi salute. he certainly used neo-nazi language as hes trying to rile up his base. and then we have the anti-fascists. not considered a hate group, created in 1930s as a reaction to nazism and resurfaced recently over the last few years because of this global nationalist movement, an...

The. >> but the fact was that this was a white nationalist rally. so he knew the facts that this was a rally that was organized by neo-nazis. >> well, and i thought -- i thought he was very strong in saying he condemned it in the strongest way possible. it was an egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence. why are we having this problem? why are people filled with this type of behavior when you love each other and respect each other were things he said. he did declare a state of emergency...

>> you said the president and you havent followed his remarks, you paraphrased a bit of what we have heard and know the president has been criticized following his remarks a few hours ago because he didnt say the words youre saying which is calling out the kkk and nazis, white supremacists saying that theres no place for those groups in our country. the president was not strong. he did not say any of the above language that you just said yourself. is that a problem? >> well, i think, i mean, i t...

What they get from abc and nbc is journalistic malpractice. and weve litigated more cases than any other organization protecting the rights of free speech on campus for students. in fact, over 400 legal victories have been chalked up by us. why is abc and nbc willing to promote propaganda and cut and paste the press release into its story when the left and right have discredited this organization? >> calling you a hate group for having the same position as obama had in 2012, and youre a hate gro...

Hardly the clan. but thanks to the southern poverty law center, they are now in the same category as the clan in news stories. but theres a bigger point at stake here is one of the most basic questions of all. who decide what we get to talk about? what should you be allowed to say in public? what should your kids be allowed to learn in schools? which ideas are legitimate and which are so dangerous we must suppress them? they think theyre in charge of that decision. we disagree. were pleased toni...

Live consistent with their convictions. and that includes people that are with the southern poverty law center. >> exactly. its one thing if someone disagrees with you, but to be called a member of a hate group is not something i want on my wikipedia page. your neighbors look it up and youre part of a hate group. theres a personal cost to that, isnt there? >> there is a cost to it. and thats why were fighting back. and we want to make sure that were engageing in civil discourse and not stooping ...
