Organizers of the event, which plays off Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton’s “basket of deplorables” swipe at Trump supporters, have rescinded the invitation of a prominent social media personality with the alt-right movement, Tim Treadstone, better known by his Twitter handle @bakedalaska.
He tweeted on Monday anti-Semitic and racist comments that included “it’s a common fact the media is run in majority by Jewish people, it’s similar to observing blacks are good at basketball.”…
The Daily Stormer, a neo-Nazi publication, weighed in on the feud and sided with Treadstone: “The Deploraball is apparently an attempt at a sanitized, cuckolded, pro-Jew version of the NPI conference.” It also lashed out at the events organizers for previously uninviting leading alt-right figures like Richard Spencer and Sam Hyde.
