WHITE SUPREMACIST GROUP TO HOLD CONFERENCE AT NATL' PRESS CLUB DURING CPAC

Dick Spencer just posted this a few hours ago, so this is all developing. For the record, with everything going on, you can pretty much guess what they are saying about how much Black Lives Matter to them! Merry Christmas! CORRECTION: The date is Feb. 27, not the 28th.

As the Conservative Political Action Conference is underway this winter, a white supremacist group that last year held a secretive shadow conference for CPAC attendees in the same complex, and whose leader was thrown out of Hungary and banned from most other European nations when he attempted to hold a conference in Budapest, is planning to hold a more public conference at the National Press Club.

On Christmas Eve, the National Policy Institute (NPI) announced a conference called “Beyond Conservatism”, for Friday Feb. 27, the evening before the last day of CPAC. According to the Facebook Page, it is to start at 6 PM well after CPAC wraps up for the day, leaving attendees free to participate. To date, the speakers announced have been NPI President Richard Spencer, Elizabethtown University Professor Paul Gottfried, and Jared Taylor, the publisher of the white supremacist website American Renaissance who also serves on the NPI board. A fourth, unidentified speaker has been mentioned.

On it’s website, NPI isays they are “an independent think-tank and publishing firm dedicated to the heritage, identity, and future of European people in the United States and around the world.” Founded by white supremacists William Regnery and the late Sam Francis, Richard Spencer took over the organization in 2011. Among its campaigns have been calls for mass deportation for nonwhite immigrants, promoting the idea that Blacks are genetically inferior to Whites, and one pushing to make the Republican Party exclusive to Whites.

Spencer, who along with his mother is currently constructing a building in his home base of Whitefish, Montana through his company Roediger Property, has created a stir in that town from residents appalled that a white supremacist organization is based there. In early December, an anti-hate resolution was adopted by the town supporting diversity and tolerance there as a response to the NPI’s presence. Spencer has spent the past year putting his organization in the spotlight, culminiating in police in Budapest, Hungary shutting down a conference he sponsored there, arresting him and ultimately banning him from not only Hungary but all nations operating under the Schengen Agreement, which allows for transit between those nations.

NPI members and associates are no stranger to CPAC. Not only are they regulars at the annual conference they have participated as sponsors. Kevin DeAnna, who accompanied Spencer to Hungary and organized a quick makeup conference there while Spencer was detained, held an inagural event at CPAC for the organization he founded, Youth for Western Civilization (YWC). That group’s vice-president was Devin Saucier, and his brother Austin reportedly works with Spencer and NPI in Whitefish. NPI has also held an event at the National Press Club in 2011, with himself, Jared Taylor and James Edwards of the white supremacist radio show the Political Cesspool as speakers.
