On Saturday, white nationalists, neo-nazis and members of the alt-right, but I repeat myself, gathered in Charlottesville, Virginia, to chance stupidities and be maced by left-wing anti-fah anarchists.

Before one apparent brown shirt, rammed 20 protesters with his car, murdering one and injuring the rest.

We'll discuss how their alt-right goes so wrong.

Plus, lone conservatives, Cassie Dillon, roaming millennial, and the daily wires Jacob Erie joined the panel of deplorables to discuss neo-nazis losing their website, Obama's election collusion with Russia, and for some reason Colin Kaepernick.

I'm Michael Knowles, this is the Michael Knowles show.

What a weekend that was. I woke up to try to figure out some other story we could cover today, because I know everybody is going to be covering this, but there is nothing else.

We have to talk about it. I wrote a piece about six months ago about the alt-right, kind of a fairly in-depth study of them.

I'm going to talk about that a little bit today. As I was watching it this weekend, though, it did feel like the Iran-a-rag war. It was a pity that both sides couldn't lose.

You had one New York Times reporter witness this. She has had to recant recently, but she did tweet this out.

The hard left seemed as hate-filled as alt-right. I saw club wielding antifa, beating white nationalists being led out of the park.

I was like, quote, among my unanswered questions, police response, why did things get out of hand so quickly? Could the violence have been prevented?

This has been a huge criticism. Why were the police apparently doing nothing? Why was all this violence allowed to happen? Why weren't there barricades? Why weren't these little fights being put down?

I don't know. There isn't a lot of video footage out there of it, but a lot of questions to answer with regard to that.

The event was called Unite the Right. This was so clever. This was a clever move of these. The whole event was white nationalist, neo-Nazi, all focused on race.

But they called it Unite the Right. Now here is the organizer describing the event at the event.

So I'm outside of City Hall in Charlottesville right now. The Charlottesville City Council just held a press conference where they said that they were going to cancel the permit for Unite the Right.

They want to move it to Mac entire park, this area that's across the way that doesn't have a damn thing to do with the Robert E. Lee monument.

That is the first and foremost reason that we're having this rally is for that park and for that statue. It's about white genocide, it's about the replacement of our people culturally and ethnically.

And that statue is the focal point of everything. There is no way. There is no way we are going to move that demonstration out of Lee Park.

You heard him. That is the focal point of everything. Robert E. Lee, the Confederate monuments. That is the center of it all. That was Jason Kessler, who was the organizer of this. But they called it Unite the Right.

By the way, here's another tweet he sent out from another event. He said getting ready to speak at the free speech rally in front of the Lincoln monument. Lincoln can go to hell. I'm a Southern man.

I think we see where he's coming from. Other people who were helping to organize and appear at this event were Richard Spencer, a well known white nationalist of the National Policy Institute. He runs altright.com and Radix Journal KKK showed up David Duke showed up.
