Cops: White Supremacist Stole $35K From His Mother

The SPLC’s Hatewatch reports:

Michael Polignano, a co-founder of white nationalist publisher Counter-Currents, faces felony charges related to his alleged theft of nearly $35,000 from his ailing mother, according to Maryland court records. Polignano is a veteran member of the white power movement, and Counter-Currents has played a leading role in spreading white nationalist thought between North America and Europe.

While Counter-Currents is a significant publisher of racist books and essays, leaked conversations suggest his role there has not provided social or financial stability. The court documents from Frederick, Maryland, show Polignano could face years in prison. Prosecutors allege that Polignano, 43, wrote a series of false checks in October 2019, which he made out to himself from his mother’s account. Ellen Polignano, 80, did not respond to a request for comment.

Read the full article. The graphic below made me LOL. Polignano’s racist history goes back to his time as a college student, as you’ll see in old video below, which is cued up to his portion. Despite his apparent current poverty, Polignano donated to Trump in 2016.
