In a stealth purging of history, the city of Baltimore removed four Confederate statues from city property under cover of night early Tuesday morning.

On Wednesday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” co-host Joe Scarborough argued that President Trump has also become the president of the white nationalist movement. Scarborough said, “The United States is — we’ve — sometimes it’s been painful, but we’ve been in a constant, long march towards equality. And yesterday, it’s almost as if the president held up a stop sign and stopped history in its tracks.” He added, “[N]ot so strange is the fact that you had David Duke and other white nationalists actually praising the president of the United States yesterday for his words. And why not, he has now officially become the president of the white national — not only of America but also of the white nationalist movement. David Duke saying, thank you, Mr. President, for your ‘courage to tell the truth about Charlottesville[.]’ Well, David Duke, neo-Nazis, white supremacists, Klan members, they stand on one side, and apparently, the rest of America and the world stands on the other, Willie. The president has chosen sides, and it is very clear, not only morally — especially morally, but also politically, he has chosen the wrong side.” Scarborough concluded that lots of Trump’s voters didn’t want “a Duke

The Hollywood Forever Cemetery will remove a memorial to Confederate veterans buried at the site, thanks in part to threats of vandalism, as well as requests from activists, according to a Tuesday report in the Los Angeles Times.

I agree with Laura Ingraham and Pete Hegseth. It is only a matter of time before the left comes for Monticello, or Mount Vernon, or indeed Mount Rushmore. Never content with their destructiveness, wait until they learn the history of Mount Rushmore. Not even 1,000 Confederate statues would draw the same outrage. The 60-foot high sculpture in South Dakota — depicting Presidents Washington, Jefferson, T. Roosevelt, and Lincoln — was sculpted by a Ku Klux Klan member. Prepare for the onslaught. Gutzon Borglum originally worked on the Stone Mountain project, which one Democrat candidate has already demanded be permanently vandalised in an attempt to erase American history. As AJC News reports: Removing the faces of Jefferson Davis, Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson would take a monster of a sandblaster and require a change in state law. The Georgia code has a clear mandate for the memorial, saying it should be “preserved and protected for all time as a tribute to the bravery and heroism of the citizens of this state who suffered and died in their cause.” How befitting then, that the totalitarian left should come for the Shrine of Democracy next. After all, the Nation of Islam has already

New details from those familiar with the circumstances of National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster’s recent purge at the National Security Council paint a picture of a general who removed staffers over their loyalty or views, not because of their competence.

Chicago police clashed with members of a local Antifa group outside a Cook County courthouse Tuesday evening. Three protesters were detained.

Former Alabama Supreme Court Justice Roy Moore and Sen. Luther Strange (R-AL) emerged Tuesday from a field of nine candidates in Alabama’s U.S. Senate special election Republican primary and will face one another in six weeks for the GOP nod. The winner of that runoff will face former Clinton U.S. Attorney Doug Jones, who handily won the Democratic Party’s primary by a nearly 40-point margin over business executive and former U.S. Navy officer Robert Kennedy, Jr. With over 90 percent of the vote counted, Moore was hovering around 40-percent mark, seven points ahead of his runoff opponent Strange. At his victory party in Montgomery, Moore noted that efforts from outside groups to influence the outcome by giving a boost to Strange did not work. “The attempt by silk-stockinged Washington elitists to control vote has failed,” Moore said during the opening of his speech to his supporters. Strange offered only brief remarks at his event in Birmingham and reminded his supporters he had gotten President Donald Trump’s support. Strange: “Let me thank the president of the United States, Donald Trump. He loves the people of Alabama.” — Dave Weigel (@daveweigel) August 16, 2017 Rep. Mo Brooks (R-AL) finished third with 20

Democratic activists and leaders are expanding their culture war against Confederate War statues, amid concerns that progressive ‘Antifa’ groups and white-power groups may create more street brawls.

As fights over Confederate monuments continue across the country, liberals are again gearing up to force the state of Georgia to destroy the giant carvings of three Confederate Civil War generals on the side of state-owned Stone Mountain.

Fox News viewers were livid after Dana Perino—long suspected to be someone, like Megyn Kelly, who cares more about the opinions of elites in New York and D.C. than Fox News’ viewers—smeared Breitbart News as a site for Nazis on Monday.
