See that picture to your right? You might have seen it just a few days ago on our front page. It is the Capitol Skyline Hotel, and last week it held a conference where a anti-Semitic, ex-con, ex-congressman spoke before a bunch of his fellow anti-Semites. In November the hotel played host to another conference where David Duke spoke to the same crowd. This is the hotel that is stepping up for Jared Taylor & Co, and to that end it puts itself in the crosshairs, but that’s something we will deal with later. It also means antifa is steppin’ out to play! We are waiting for the official call from other organizations, and when we get them we will post it here, but in the meantime if you were planning to come out, keep those plans. This is going to be damned interesting!

WASHINGTON, DC-Despite earlier announcements that they cancelled the American Renaissance Conference, organizers say they have secured another venue, a hotel with a recent history of hosting white supremacists.
The Capitol Skyline Hotel, located five blocks from the US Capitol at 10 I Street SW, Washington, DC, is the venue being announced on the American Renaissance website. “This hotel will not back down in the face of threats,” the announcement noted, making reference to their earlier assertion that death threats prompted the Four Points Sheraton to shut their doors to the conference.
In recent months conferences sponsored by the anti-Semitic American Free Press have taken place at the Capitol Skyline Hotel. Last Saturday, convicted ex-Congressman Jim Trafficant spoke to an audience there on behalf of the newspaper and on Nov. 7, the keynote speaker at that conference was former Klansman David Duke. Council of Conservative Citizens member Peter Papaheraklis of Kensington, MD has had a hand in the last two events, but it is not known if he is assisting organizers with the change of venue. American Renaissance editor Jared Taylor is a board member for the Council of Conservative Citizens.
Since yesterday’s cancellation announcement, several racist and right-leaning websites have posted Taylor’s press release on the matter, including Breitbart.com, the website that worked to defend conservative propagandist James O’Keefe when it was learned he participated in a racist forum in 2006 that featured Taylor as a panelist. The website for the English Nationalist Party called for its readers to “go into Bill White mode and pre-emptively target anti-racists with direct action,” referring to the neo-Nazi blogger and landlord that was recently convicted and faces up to 40 years in federal prison for communicating threats against individuals via his website and the mail. At press time, there has been no official statement from any anti-racist groups.
