Richard Spencer, the one-time national leader of the alt-right movement who headed a Washington, DC, “think tank” promoting his racist ideology, strode confidently to the witness stand in the Charlottesville federal court Thursday morning.
By lunchtime, Spencer would become frazzled and irritated as an attorney attempted to undress his suit-and-tie brand of white nationalism and expose him as a violent racist who behind closed doors worshipped Adolf Hitler, launched into antisemitic tirades, and was bent on sparking a “bloody and terrible” race war to create an all-white “ethnostate.”
They are being sued under the 150-year-old Ku Klux Klan Act by nine plaintiffs, who are seeking not only damages for their personal injuries but to bankrupt and dismantle the white supremacists’ organizations.
