Whether you're on the left, the right, the center, green party or libertarian, Americans all agree that we not let the Alt-Right, the next generation of White Supremacists, get any kind of foothold in government policy and decisions.
Beating our common enemy, the Alt-Right, means knowing our enemy. Let's start with Richard Spencer and his National Policy Institute. From outward appearances Richard and his little group sound benign, harmless. Not so.
Meet the new think tank in town: 'Alt-right' comes to Washington to influence Trump
All Americans must push back against any attempts to normalize alt-right views -- white nationalism, white pride, whites only. And we must encourage our leaders in D.C. and in our states to do the same. Shame these bigots at every turn. Arrest and jail them when they break the law.
Richard Bertrand Spencer (born May 11, 1978) is an American white nationalist known for promoting white supremacist views.[1][2][3][4] He is president of the National Policy Institute, a white nationalist think-tank, and Washington Summit Publishers, an independent publishing firm. Spencer has stated that he rejects the description of white supremacist, and describes himself as an identitarian.
Richard Spencer was born in Boston, Massachusetts, and grew up in Dallas, Texas.[5] His father is an ophtalmologist while his mother erected a building in Whitefish, Montana.[5]
Spencer graduated from St. Mark's School of Texas.[5] In 2001, he received a B.A. from the University of Virginia and, in 2003, an M.A. from the University of Chicago.[5] He was later a doctoral student at Duke University,[5] before leaving to pursue a career in journalism.
The National Policy Institute (NPI) is an alt-right, white nationalist think tank based in Arlington, Virginia.
About Richard Bertrand Spencer
Spencer advocates for an Aryan homeland for the supposedly dispossessed white race and calls for “peaceful ethnic cleansing” to halt the “deconstruction” of European culture. But even some of the Europeans he lionizes have rejected him; in October 2014, his attempt to hold an NPI conference in Budapest, Hungary, resulted in his arrest and expulsion.
In His Own Words
“Martin Luther King Jr., a fraud and degenerate in his life, has become the symbol and cynosure of White Dispossession and the deconstruction of Occidental civilization. We must overcome!”
– National Policy Institute column, January 2014
“Immigration is a kind a proxy war—and maybe a last stand—for White Americans, who are undergoing a painful recognition that, unless dramatic action is taken, their grandchildren will live in a country that is alien and hostile.”
– National Policy Institute column, February 2014
“Our dream is a new society, an ethno-state that would be a gathering point for all Europeans. It would be a new society based on very different ideals than, say, the Declaration of Independence."
– Quoted by Vice, October 2013
“When we hear any professional ‘Latino’ support this or that social program, we sense in our guts that her policy proscriptions are rationalizations for nationalism. She might say ‘more immigration is good’; she means ‘The Anglos are finished!’”
– Speech at the 2013 American Renaissance conference
“What blocks our progress is the meme that has been carefully implanted in White people’s minds over the course of decades of programming, from Mississippi Burning to Lee Daniel's The Butler—that any kind of positive racial feeling among Whites is inherently evil and stupid and derives solely from bigotry and resentment. And that the political and social advancement of non-Whites is inherently moral and wonderful.”
– National Policy Institute column, September 2013
Very scary stuff.
I encourage all Americans no matter who you voted for to remain vigilant against this cancer.
IMHO I think Donald Trump used these people as an ends to means, as he only half-heatedly disavowed them. The fact that his son-in-law, Kushner, a devout jew, is one of his closest advisors tells me that Donald Trump himself is not a White Nationalist, but Machiavellian willing to do whatever it took to win the office. But now that he's (almost) in office, it's the duty of all Americans to demand that President Trump make the Alt-right his enemy. He will have to deal with the blowback and consequences of this, being called a traitor to his race, etc., that will have to be his burden. They may even come after him, enraged by his betrayal. The secret service and DOJ will have to deal with this.

Meet the new think tank in town: 'Alt-right' comes to Washington to influence Trump
This was the white nationalist lobby — the alt-right — coming to town for a victory lap after Donald Trump’s election, assuming what they see as their rightful place influencing the new administration.
“An awakening among everyone has occurred with this Trump election,” Richard Spencer, president of the white nationalist think tank, said during opening remarks. “We’re not quite the establishment now, but I think we should start acting like it.”
Several hundred pro-white nationalists showed up for the day-long confab, buoyed by Trump’s popularity and the role they now intend to play in bringing white identity politics to Washington.
Sitting around conference tables, the formally dressed men more resembled Washington lobbyists than the robed Ku Klux Klansmen or skinhead toughs that often represent white supremacists, though they share many familiar views.
All Americans must push back against any attempts to normalize alt-right views -- white nationalism, white pride, whites only. And we must encourage our leaders in D.C. and in our states to do the same. Shame these bigots at every turn. Arrest and jail them when they break the law.
