I am always pleased to find out about our visitors to Charlottesville having difficulties with their "lifestyle."

White nationalist featured at Unite the Right arrested for kidnapping, domestic violence



MELBOURNE, Fla. — A white nationalist who ran for the U.S. Senate in Florida and was a featured speaker during the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville was arrested on charges of kidnapping, domestic violence and possession of a firearm during a crime of violence.

Augustus Sol Invictus, 36, was arrested Monday at a Florida mall by Brevard County Sheriff’s deputies on a warrant issued out of South Carolina, the Miami Herald reported. Jail records described him as an “out of state fugitive.”

The Herald noted that news of the arrest was first reported on Twitter by the journalist Nick Martin, who focuses on covering “hate and extremism” in the U.S.

Invictus, an Orlando-area attorney, has called for violent uprisings. During his 2016 Senate bid to unseat U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio, he got widespread attention for claiming that he killed a goat and drank its blood as part of a pagan ritual. He failed, however, to win the nomination from Florida’s Libertarian Party to challenge Rubio.

1. What a dangerous creep.

Scary that this guy got a law degree and is angling for political influence. Ugh.

On a brighter note, happy new year, Y3!
