The man accused of killing an Army veteran and a recent college graduate on a Portland train shouted about patriotism, free speech, and the enemies of America in his first court appearance on Tuesday.
Jeremy Christian, a 35-year-old known locally as a white supremacist, was scheduled to be arraigned on charges that include aggravated murder. He was charged in Friday's killings of 53-year-old Ricky John Best and 23-year-old Taliesin Myrddin Namkai Meche, two men who stood up to Christian as he yelled at a Muslim teenager and her black friend. As deputies led him into the courtroom, Christian began to rant.
"Free speech or die," he shouted. "This is America, get out if you don't like free speech."
"You call it terrorism, I call it patriotism," he continued.
He continued calling for death to the "enemies of America," including anti-fascists. Several men who appeared to be antifa protesters stood outside the hearing, and as a friend of Christian's from prison arrived, they chased him away. The friend, who identified himself as Jamie, said he had known Christian for 15 years and they were both homeless.
"If I went and got in some shit I'd want someone to stand by me," he said outside the courthouse.
He denied being a neo-Nazi, but he added, "I've fought and bled for my race."

These are the values that resonate with rural/working class voters...
The kind that Dem elitists on the coasts forgot about!

Glenn Fucking Greenwald in 2017: "Leaks are BAD!!!!"
https://twitter.com/Wilson__Valdez/status/869569049218473984Any of Glenn's people and other transparency advocates on this forum care to respond? There's a deep state liberal conspiracy on Twitter, dontchaknow?

There's no end to the GOP nuttiness, is there?
https://twitter.com/ezlusztig/status/867690717459750912Cassandra Fairbanks Loved Bernie Sanders. Now She's a Donald Trump Superfan.
How a left-leaning anarchist and anti-rape activist became a leader of the far-right "Deplorable" movement.
"You don't know me but I just wanted to say hello," says a 50-ish man, clutching his drink and leaning in close. He recognized her its Cassandra Fairbanks, isnt it? from Twitter.
Fairbanks nods and smiles graciously, albeit a little awkwardly. This happens to her a lot: People recognize her her cascading blonde curls, aggressively pouty lips, sharply arched brows, the lyrics from a Bob Dylan song, tattooed on her collarbone, peeking out of her dress. This is what happens when youre any kind of social media star, but especially a right-wing, unapologetic #MakeAmericaGreatAgain Donald Trump fan (I love him, shes tweeted, on multiple occasions). People are kind of in awe that you actually exist.
She makes polite small talk with the man, taking long glugs of her cider. When he finally walks away, she exhales. "Twitter in real life," she laughs uncomfortably, as if she likes the Twitter part more than the real life part.
Were at Shellys Back Room, an old-timey cigar bar a few blocks from the White House where the stench of smoke will linger on our clothes and in our hair until we all take vigorous showers. The venerated watering hole is the hub of conservative Washington, and tonight, a new group of right-wingers has gathered to celebrate its takeover of the Republican Party. Its a Friday night in late February, near the end of the annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), a four-day policy schmooze fest that marks the apex of the Republican social calendar. Unlike last year, when many Republicans still clung to the #NeverTrump mantle, this years attendees have, for the most part, coalesced around the president.

Cosmo is being too kind, since Banks was NEVER on our side to fucking begin with... She went all in with Bernie to leech votes away from Hillary, and outs herself after her mission was accomplished... Just a textbook plain old-fashioned ratfucking operation that hooked tens of thousands of suckers on Twitter...
And she isn't the only one, either -- There are dozens of other high-profile faux-leftist pundits who didn't out themselves after the election, as I have repeatedly pointed out.
The world according to Greenwald:
Nothing in the world is so bad and evil today that it can't whataboutted away with a wave of the hand:
