Neo-Nazis March Through Downtown Nashville
Just left an event honoring a Black sorority and spoke of the need to unite against the rising tide of white supremacy, only to be confronted by Nazis marching through downtown Nashville.
This is exactly what my Republican colleagues hate speech is fostering and inviting. pic.twitter.com/ZaK5kUQDYP

Enabled and emboldened by Trump, every U.S. member of congress who supports Trump, and every single Trump voter. In other words: The modern Republican party. All the inevitable and upcoming blood is 100% on all of their hands. Via NBC:
“Neo-Nazi demonstrators … carried flags with swastikas, walked around the Capitol and parts of downtown Saturday afternoon,” Nashville police said in a statement.
No arrests were reported, and the group left in a U-Haul box truck that ultimately exited greater Nashville, police said, indicating the demonstrators may have been from out of town.
The U-Haul seems to be the preferred neo-Nazi vehicle. As you’ll recall, dozens of white supremacists in a U-Haul were arrested in 2022 for planning a terror attack at an Idaho gay pride.
Another video from the march yesterday, with a bystander heckling the neo-Nazis:
Nazis marching in the streets of downtown Nashville, Tennessee today.
