David Duke – Angry White Men: Recent Episodes
None
At his confirmation hearing, Kash Patel — President Trump’s nominee to lead the FBI — was grilled over his association with Holocaust denier and Nazi sympathizer Stew Peters. On a Friday livestream, Peters denied being a white supremacist, shortly before introducing former Klan leader David Duke as a “living legend.”
During the hearing, Sen. Dick Durbin questioned Patel about the eight appearances he made on The Stew Peters Show, and described Peters as a conspiracy theorist who “worked with a prominent Neo-Nazi.” And, while discussing the hearing, Fox News host Jessica Tarlov similarly referred to Peters as a “white supremacist.”
“I don’t know how a sitting U.S. senator on Capitol Hill during a confirmation hearing for the upcoming installed FBI director, I don’t know how he can just sit up there and call me a white supremacist and claim that I’m working with prominent Neo Nazis,” Peters groused. “So I’ll be seeking legal advice on that.”
“Are they allowed to do that?” he asked. “Are they really allowed to do that on the Fox News Channel? To tarnish the reputation of somebody like myself who’s been out here on an island broadcasting the truth, risking it all, committing economic and financial and business suicide because I am convicted. In my beliefs, in my faith.”
But Peters quickly pivoted from denials of white supremacy to ranting about Jews, whom he denounced as a “parasitic cockroachian infestation” and blamed for “all of the ills in our society,” from “open borders” to a “poisoned food supply” to the “dismemberment and murder of pre-born babies in the womb.”
From a Jan. 31, 2025 livestream titled “David Duke LIVE and INTERACTIVE: The Jewish Question, the KKK and the OCCUPATION”Peters then announced that he would be interviewing David Duke, a former Neo-Nazi and leader of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan. Peters praised the longtime white supremacist as a “living legend” who “has been asking and answering the Jewish question for decades,” and who was unfairly “maligned” and “censored” for it.
“Dr. Duke has been steadfast in his mission to fight the synagogue of Satan with the one thing that it fears the most, the truth,” Peters said. “And the truth is, the world has a Jewish problem. The truth is America has a Jewish problem, and we need to work toward a Jewish solution.”
Peters’ statement about a “Jewish solution” to a “Jewish problem” appears to echo the rhetoric of the Nazi Party, which referred to its plan to exterminate European Jews as the “Final Solution” to the “Jewish question.” In the past, Peters has praised Adolf Hitler and promoted his book, Mein Kampf.
During the interview, David Duke, as he has done in the past, denied being a racist by claiming that the term “racist” was invented by Leon Trotsky — “one of the heads of the Communist Party” whose “real name was a Jewish name.”
And he defended his work on behalf of the Klan, including a 1977 decision to patrol the U.S.-Mexico border, by echoing the white supremacist “Great Replacement” conspiracy theory which has fueled numerous acts of racist violence.
“Way back in the early ’70s, I organized the first watch of the American border where we reported the illegal immigrants to the border patrol,” he said. “And I saw then that there was a Jewish plan to ethnically replace the European people of this country, at the same time demonize the white people and try to weaponize the minorities to vote in blocs for their positions.”
Duke concluded that “there’s nothing more racist and supremacist in the world than Jewish supremacy and Jewish racism.”

On his Rumble and YouTube show, Fight Back, MMA fighter-turned-antisemitic podcaster Jake Shields interviewed ex-Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke. During the show, Shields denied being a “white nationalist” while declaring that “we’re doing way too much immigration,” and that “we should stay a majority-white country.”
Duke referenced the demographic changes in Palestine, stating that it “was literally 95, 96% Palestinian up until the early 20th century,” and used this point to attack immigration in the U.S. and Europe. Duke said that immigration “has affected us negatively,” and that “the Palestinians understood it too.”
“They had riots back in the ’30s to try to stop this massive Jewish influx that was coming into Palestine,” he said.
Shields told Duke that while he’s “not a white nationalist by any means,” he believes that “we’re doing way too much immigration and way too fast.” He added that he has “nothing against minorities” — and has Black and Mexican friends — but that “we should stay a majority-white country.”
Duke responded by defending the Immigration Act of 1924, which instituted racially discriminatory immigration quotas. According to Duke, the people behind the law “didn’t say ‘Oh, we want to become all white’ or ‘We want to increase the white percentage.'” Israel, he claimed, did argue in favor of laws to increase “the Jewish population.”
Shields then defended the white supremacist “Great Replacement” conspiracy theory, telling Duke that it’s “interesting that the same groups that are often, you know, like [Alejandro] Mayorkas and these guys, these Jewish organizations they’re attacking, they’re pushing free, open borders in America” while wanting “closed borders in Israel.”
The falsehood that there is a Jewish plot to replace white Americans with immigrants of color has inspired multiple terrorist attacks in recent years, most recently a mass shooting at a Buffalo supermarket which targeted Black people and left 10 dead.

Right-wing Internet personality Sulaiman Ahmed recently sat down for an interview with white supremacist and ex-Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke. During their discussion, Duke defended his decision to join the Klan, called Judaism a “racist” ideology, and referred to the Holocaust as a “religion.”
Sulaiman Ahmed has used his account on X (formerly Twitter) to make posts critical of Israel and Zionism, particularly after Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023 terrorist attack and the ensuing Israeli response. However, he often intersperses these posts with ones promoting bigoted conspiracy theories.
Ahmed has claimed, for example, that Israel controls the U.S. government, assassinated President John F. Kennedy, and perpetrated the 9/11 terrorist attacks. He’s decried the “LGBTQ agenda,” and blamed declining white birthrates on a “liberal leftist agenda propagated by radical feminists.”
In a May 11, 2024 post, Ahmed defended Holocaust deniers, stating that, “It’s hard to blame people for denying the holocaust when Zionists are lying about Oct 7. These types of comments increase holocaust denial.”
He’s also defended misogynistic, antisemitic, and white nationalist extremists.
Ahmed suggested that manosphere influencers Andrew and Tristan Tate, who were charged with rape and human trafficking, are “innocent,” and that the allegations against them “have been debunked.” He also called for Holocaust denier and white supremacist Nick Fuentes to be reinstated on X.
In June, Ahmed traveled to Detroit to attend Fuentes’ America First Political Action Conference (AFPAC) as a VIP. The conference was canceled, however, when the venue which was set to host the event pulled out. It was at this rally that Ahmed met with David Duke, who referred to Fuentes as a “comrade.”
In a June 17, 2024 video uploaded to his Rumble channel, Ahmed boasted that he was among the “first people to platform” Fuentes before his X suspension was lifted by Elon Musk. He also made it clear that he hoped his interview with Duke would similarly result in his account being reinstated.
“But will your boy’s interview be so monumental, so earth-shattering, that other people will start platforming [David Duke]?” he asked. “And then he may, or may not, come back [to X]. We’ll see.”
From the June 17, 2024 episode of Sulaiman UnsilencedDuring the interview, Ahmed and Duke were joined by antisemitic and misogynistic streamer “Sneako” (real name Nico Kenn De Balinthazy). A fellow AFPAC VIP, De Balinthazy was punched in the face by a security guard after the event was canceled.
Ahmed reminded Duke that he has been frequently criticized for having been “part of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan” — failing to note that Duke was not merely a member, but a Grand Wizard — and asked him why he joined.
Duke replied that he “joined the organization as a very young man” because, he said, it was “defending European Christian values” in a “90% European Christian country.” He added that he was motivated by what he called the “Jewish takeover of America.”
He also denounced Judaism as “the most racist ideology in the world,” and “way more racist than the National Socialists” — referring to the Nazi Party, which he has repeatedly defended.
From the July 3, 2024 episode of Sitdown with SulaimanDuke also complained that his books are no longer sold on Amazon, blaming president and CEO Andy Jassy — whom he referred to as a Jew and whose name he mispronounced.
“My books aren’t sold because they advocate violence — there’s no violence in them,” he said. “They don’t advocate hate. But they do expose some of the hate that’s involved in Judaism. We see the display of that [with] what’s going on in Gaza recently.”
Duke also told Ahmed and De Balinthazy that he could prove that “Jewish influence” led to World Wars I and II, and “paved the way for the Jewish communist takeover of Russia.” Ahmed, apparently intrigued by this, asked Duke about how “strong” his evidence was for these claims.
Duke replied that he brought his book Jewish Supremacism, and that he would be happy to give signed copies to both him and De Balinthazy.
From the July 3, 2024 episode of Sitdown with SulaimanAhmed also questioned Duke about Holocaust denial. “One of the other things that people say about you is about the Holocaust. They say that you deny the Holocaust. I mean what’s your position on it?” he asked. Duke responded by falsely claiming he never denied it.
“I never denied the Holocaust,” he said. “I say this though: The big question we have to have is ‘What do we know about anything in the world, unless we have freedom of speech?'”
“It’s the one event you can’t question,” De Balinthazy chimed in.
“That’s right,” Duke said. “And you know what, the Holocaust is like a religion today. I mean it really is.”
Duke has openly questioned “whether 6 million Jews actually died in Nazi death camps,” and called the existence of gas chambers “preposterous.” In his book, My Awakening, he also blamed “Jewish forces” for blocking “access to material that questions Holocaust orthodoxy.”
And in 2006, Duke attended a Holocaust denial conference hosted by Iran’s then-president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Duke told Ahmed and De Balinthazy that he once traveled to Iran and that Ahmadinejad praised his work, but did not say why the event was being held.

On March 5, 2024, voters in Massachusetts’ First Suffolk District will choose two candidates — a man and a woman — for the Republican State Committee. One candidate, Lori Kauffman, is an unabashed Neo-Nazi. A convert from Judaism to Christianity, Kauffman has vowed to “exile” Jews and, on a white supremacist podcast, said “we need to overthrow the government.”
Kauffman’s bizarre candidacy was first reported on by Boston Broadside, which pointed out her pro-Hitler posts on X (formerly Twitter). On Dec. 23, 2023, for example, she used her @Jews4Ye24 account — referring to antisemitic rapper Ye’s failed presidential bid — to declare, “I’m a Jew. Whatever the ‘holocaust’ was, Israel and J-ws are guilty of worse crimes against humanity. I love Hitler.”
Kauffman uses a second X account, @LoriKauffman13, to spew antisemitic rhetoric as well. On Aug. 3, 2023, before her conversion to Christianity, Kauffman wrote, “Yes I’m Jewish, but I have Christian values and believe Jews are destroying the world.” Just days ago she used this account to conflate Judaism with Satanism.
And on Feb. 25, 2024, she boasted that, if elected, she will ban same-sex marriage, criminalize transgender people, and “exile all Jews”:
Screenshot via XAnd on her Instagram page, which is currently set to private, Kauffman once posted a photo of herself holding a book called Life in the Reich, by British Neo-Nazi Michael McLaughlin.
In order to gin up support for her campaign, Kauffman has appeared on shows hosted by notorious white supremacists. On Jan. 6, 2024, she went on Hoaxbusters, a show hosted by Diane King and twin Holocaust deniers Jim and Joe Rizoli. During this appearance Kauffman explained why she rejected her Jewish upbringing, and what inspired her to run for office.
Kauffman claimed that what “redpilled” her was rapper Ye (formerly Kanye West), who, in 2022, began to voice support for Adolf Hitler, the Nazis, and Holocaust denial. In an infamous X post, Ye vowed to go “death con 3 on JEWISH PEOPLE.” And his ill-fated presidential campaign was aided by white nationalists like Nick Fuentes and Milo Yiannopoulos.
“And everybody should’ve really woken up at this point when he sent a, we like to call it a sleepy tweet — ’cause that’s what he refers to it as — about the Jews. And the next day — saying they hold all the power in the world — and the next day he loses like $9 billion of his own money,” she said. “Did they not just prove his point, like, completely?”
Kauffman said she started “following [Ye] closely” and became a fan of Nick Fuentes and white nationalist broadcaster Stew Peters. On X, Kauffman has praised Fuentes and interacted positively with figures associated with his racist “groyper” movement such as Matt Evans, a streamer who goes by the name “Beardson Beardly”:
Screenshot via X. Archived here, here, and here.Eventually, she began assisting Ye with his campaign, and a “connection” of his told her to “look into volunteering for the GOP in Massachusetts.” After reaching out to more people, however, she decided to simply run for a position.
According to Kauffman, Daniel Kelly, who is also running for Republican State Committee, wanted her as his “running mate.” She also claims that Chris Ryan, chairman of the Western Mass GOP Patriots PAC and self-described “Theater Commander” of the RINO-Cutters Project, offered her “advice here and there.”
“He saw my Instagram which — that one’s now been banned, obviously, it was public — but he was like ‘Maybe you should address some of your content there. Maybe censor it a little bit,'” she said of Chris Ryan. “He goes, ‘But actually, never mind. Trump people love that shit.'” But she accused him of “[throwing] that stuff back in my face” at the “Western Mass. GOP meeting.”
On Dec. 15, 2023, the Massachusetts Republican Committee passed a resolution condemning Kauffman’s “prejudiced and antisemitic statements” and calling on her to withdraw her candidacy.
Co-host Jim Rizoli eventually spoke up to suggest Kauffman actually had an “advantage” due to her “Jewish name.” He explained that, “Unless they read the Boston Broadside they’re not gonna really know who the hell ya are, probably. But, having a Jewish name — you gotta understand that the Jews are tribal. They vote for Jews. So you could actually do well.”
From the Jan. 6, 2024 episode of HoaxbustersLater in the show Kauffman expressed an interest in overthrowing the U.S. government and instituting a monarchy.
When Jim Rizoli asked Kauffman for her thoughts on Donald Trump, she said that she “never really liked him that much” and views him as “owned by Israel.” In fact, she admitted that she’s “still on Ye ’24.” But, she said, “what we need anyway is a monarchy. I’m over the government. It needs to be wiped out. Just call it what it is. We need to overthrow the government.”
Kauffman also decried America’s “fake elections” and claimed that “we’re not gonna get out of the system within the system — using the system itself.”
Jim Rizoli agreed, calling her remarks “absolutely true.” He stated that “You really need someone to take control that has to have the complete power,” and that “You’ll never see this unless you have a Hitler type of individual come in.” Diane King interjected to say that “We don’t deserve the kind of person that Hitler would be for a country that we have become.”
“We have Kanye,” Kauffman replied. “And we deserve him.”
From the Jan. 6, 2024 episode of HoaxbustersDays later, Kauffman appeared on yet another white supremacist podcast, this time hosted by ex-Klan leader David Duke. During the interview, Kauffman railed against “Jewish supremacy” and went on an antisemitic tirade that appeared to even surprise Duke himself.
After briefly discussing her upbringing — claiming that the “turmoil” with in her own family helped “turn me off from Jews” — Kauffman said that she converted to Christianity “a year ago.” And, like other Christian antisemites, accused the Jews of “hat[ing] Christians” and being responsible for Christ’s death.
“It’s in their tendency to hate Christians, to have an issue with praising God,” she told Duke. “Obviously they killed Jesus. They really are an immoral, greedy, kind of money-worshipping, power-worshipping people.”
Duke said this was “true,” but cautioned that “we should be careful the way we word this.” He then began talking about people like Brian Roberts, the CEO and chairman of Comcast. According to Duke, Roberts’ grandfather changed his last name, which is something Jews do as a “form of disguise.”
“It’s like how a predator tries to disguise themselves like a leaf, you know, and so forth. And then the praying mantis gets the insect — the meal — for the day,” he said.

In a conversation with comedian Theodor Capitani von Kurnatowski III (a.k.a. “Theo Von”), ex-Fox News host Tucker Carlson distanced himself from David Duke, referring to the white supremacist and former Klan leader as a “fed.” Carlson also acted surprised that Duke would publicly support him, telling Von that he and Duke “don’t share a common culture.”
Carlson made the remarks on Von’s YouTube show This Past Weekend after he claimed that he’s “not interested in talking about race.”
“The system is completely rigged and you know that — you were asking how do you get reliable information about the news — the news media wanna talk about race,” Carlson told Von. “That’s like their main thing that they wanna talk about. Black, white, Hispanic, Asian.”
Carlson said that race is “not an interesting conversation because you can’t change your race” and added that it’s “not that interesting a topic to me, personally. I’m not interested in talking about race.” Although comments Carlson has made throughout his television career indicate otherwise.
He said what’s more interesting is that “America is being looted by a small number of people who are getting away with it,” and that if anyone asks questions about it they will be smeared as racist. Carlson joked that Von, who grew up in Louisiana, is automatically racist because David Duke is also from Louisiana.
Von told Carlson that he “used to lift weights with David Duke.”
“In prison?” Carlson asked, joking that he could “see you guys in the [prison] yard” with “all the Aryan Nation guys.”
Von told Carlson that he and Duke actually went to the same gym and that he occasionally saw him at a seafood restaurant he worked at. “So he’d pop in there and I’d watch him eat shrimp or whatever,” Von said. He also told Carlson that Duke came across as a “nice guy” and that there “was never any racial things.”
“I’ve never met him but I will say this — and I’m not saying he’s a fed, though he’s obviously a fed,” Carlson said. “But every time I’d get a new show — I don’t know anything about David Duke. I’m from La Jolla, California. He wasn’t quite as popular there. But every time I’d get a new show there’d be some news story ‘David Duke endorses Tucker Carlson.'”
Carlson laughed and said, “I don’t know you, I don’t know anything about you. I’m from La Jolla, okay? We don’t share a common culture.”
David Duke has repeatedly praised Tucker Carlson, and in one episode of his radio show remarked that he and Carlson talk about the same things. Duke asked how, given that, he could be an “evil guy.”
Carlson’s accusation that Duke is a “fed” is likewise unsurprising, considering his track record of making similar accusations, particularly against Trump supporter Ray Epps, a man he attempted to frame for the entire Jan. 6 insurrection. And right-wing media figures, including Carlson, have used such false flag conspiracies against anyone who makes them look bad.
