Faced with new allegations of domestic abuse including sexual battery, Libertarian Party lightning rod and avowed ultranationalist Augustus Sol Invictus has been both lashing out at his “enemies” for what he calls slander and pursuing a deal he says will heal his reputation and his relationship with the party. Invictus, who ran as a candidate for the Libertarian Party of Florida’s U.S. Senate nomination but lost in the primary, was accused in a March 21 report filed with the Edgewood Police Department by an unidentified woman. She said that during their 15-month relationship that ended early this year he repeatedly verbally, physically and sexually assaulted her, and even held a gun to her and threatened to kill her. The allegations come at a time when Invictus is almost simultaneously trying to repair both his reputation and his relationship with the party, and launching a self-described war against his enemies, including against some in the party he says are out to destroy him, with an anger-filled video he posted on Facebook. The police report allegations include her description of a March, 2016, incident in which she alleged, “Mr. Invictus got angry, beat her until her eyes were shut, dragged her into the closet and put a gun to her head, asking her why he shouldn’t just kill her … A similar incident happened again in January/February 2017 where he dragged her into the closet and put a gun to her head, beat her and attempted to suffocate her. This went on for several hours. explained that he then proceeded to sexually assault her.” Of the unidentified woman who filed the report, police redacted her name and other information from released copies. “The police report is 100 percent false,” Invictus replied to FloridaPolitics.com. Invictus insisted the woman — as well as another woman he would not name — were part of a conspiracy that included at least a couple of people within the Libertarian Party of Florida. This included the man who defeated him in the August U.S. Senate primary, Paul Stanton, and the party’s former state chairman, Adrian Wyllie, who oy his reputation. In the video posted on Facebook, Invictus threatened to sue for slander. No charges were pursued against Invictus as a result of the police report because the incidents allegedly occurred in another jurisdiction — Altamonte Springs. Edgewood police urged the complainant to seek an injunction against Invictus and to re-report the allegations to the Altamonte Springs police. A recent check of Orange County Clerk of Court records and the Altamonte Springs Police Department indicate she had not done either yet. Libertarian Party leaders declined to talk to FloridaPolitics.com about Invictus, the police report, or discussions with him, except to note they are in mutually-agreed- upon mediation regarding complaints and demands he has made to the party. Stanton and Wyllie each denied any conspiracy and said they do not know the woman who filed the report. Both dismissed his claims, though both acknowledged they are unhappy that he is still in the party, or that anyone pays attention to him. “It’s typical of the kind of lunacy he comes up with,” said Wyllie, who resigned as LPF chairman last year over Invictus’ standing and candidacy. “It’s ridiculous,” Stanton said. “He’s just making fantastical, bizarre claims, just like he did in the primary, just like he always does. I think a lot of us are getting tired of it.” Invictus is the Orlando-area lawyer who made his fame by defending neo-Nazis in criminal court cases. Then, as he ran for the U.S. Senate, publicized his penchant for behaviors like drinking goat blood or writing journals while on LSD. Since then he’s charged that opponents — he blames anti-fascist groups called “Antifa” — have been threatening him, disrupting or preventing his rallies and appearances, and resorting to violence on some occasions. He also claims his family is being targeted. He has young children. And he claimed police are harassing him too, saying he was pulled over and harassed by deputy sheriffs in South Carolina this week for no reason. He blames a news release the party issued under Wyllie in 2015 disavowing some of his political and philosophical positions. That release, he charges, falsely accused him of believing in eugenics and state-sponsored murder, and helped spread a false allegation that he is a white supremacist. He has been demanding the party publicly retract those statements, and last week filed notice that he intended to sue the party for defamation. That led to the offer of mediation. He told FloridaPolitics.com the mediation is over, and that the party has agreed to his demands, with just legal details to be worked out. He said he’s expecting the party to issue a news release soon, retracting things it said about him in the 2015 news release. And he believes that will solve some of his problems. “We’re all very motivated moving forward to having this resolved so we can move on with our lives,” he said. “I expect it is going to clear my name in a big way. Of course, it won’t solve all my problems, but a correction of the original false allegations are going to clear my name in a big way.” He said he is expecting total vindication, and that it would be an embarrassment to Stanton, who he said was the only key LPF official still opposing him. Stanton, who is on the LPF executive committee, said whatever the party does, it does not mean that most of its members don’t dislike Invictus. “Unfortunately, there is a small segment in the party that does support him. It is very troubling. However, the vast majority of the Libertarian Party both in Florida and outside Florida finds him to be appalling, to say the least,” he said. Stanton said the police report reinforces his worst concern. “Augustus Invictus advocates violence toward and subjugation of vulnerable people,” Stanton said, noting that’s what the police report says he did to the woman. “That is entirely antithetic to the Libertarian message of peace and nonaggression.” In the Facebook video posted last week, Invictus vowed vengeance and made references to violence. However, in talking to FloridaPolitics.com, he downplayed those references as largely metaphorical about hardball politics. He also said the vengeance he promised against the Libertarian Party of Florida would be waived when the news release he wants is issued. In the video, he announced his “William Tecumseh Sherman” scorched-earth campaign against his enemies. “The Antifa, the crooked cops, the Libertarian Party, the slanderers, the traitors, they all are finding out as we speak that my patience has run dry. I am setting fire to every goddamn thing in my path,” he declared in the video. “Nothing will satisfy my anger now.” Charging that they have involved his family, he warned: “I will involve your families. I will attack your reputations. I will authorize my people to attack your events. I will let my people know where you live.” On Friday morning the Libertarian Party of Florida Chairman The Libertarian Party of Florida (LPF) has conducted a review of a press release regarding Augustus Sol Invictus that was published on October 5th, 2015, and has concluded that it exceeded the mandate of the executive committee as discussed in its monthly meeting on October 4th, 2015. The LPF, in accordance, has withdrawn this press release. Further, two items regarding “eugenics” and “state-sponsored murder” are mentioned in the press release. For example, “unwillingness to reject eugenics”, “call for eugenics”, and so forth. Upon review of current information, the LPF concluded that Mr. Invictus, has on at least one occasion before the press release and several times after, disavowed government eugenics programs. And the item of “state-sponsored murder” is ambiguous. Finally, the LPF would like to note that Mr. Invictus has always been a member in good standing, is a past Chair of the Libertarian Party of Orange County, a sponsor of the 2016 and 2017 LPF State Conventions, as well as a dedicated volunteer on the Legislative Review Committee. uthorize my people to attack your events.

Goat-Blood-Drinking Rubio Opponent Accused Of Sexual Assault "Alt-right" provocateur Augustus Invictus hoped to take Marco Rubio's Senate seat. He also once sacrificed a goat and drank its blood. Now he's accused of domestic violence and sexual assault A prominent, controversial Libertarian provocateur often associated with white nationalists and the “alt-right,” and who staged an unsuccessful campaign for a U.S. Senate seat in 2016, has been accused of beating and sexually assaulting a woman who claims to be his former girlfriend. Augustus Sol Invictus, an attorney who ran as a Libertarian in 2016 for the Senate seat currently held by Senator Marco Rubio, has been accused by a former girlfriend of assaulting and sexually abusing her on multiple occasions over several months, according to an incident report filed in March. Invictus has a lengthy history as a provocative, far-right-wing nationalist who penned a lengthy paper about the benefits of eugenics, and once said he sacrificed a live goat to “the God of wilderness.” He currently runs a far-right, anti-Muslim, anti-immigrant website called The Revolutionary Conservative and serves on the Libertarian Party of Florida’s legislative committee. According to the incident report, he also allegedly beat his now-former girlfriend and held her captive for several days in the home she says they shared — “until her bruises healed.” Invictus did not respond to requests for an interview, but the Edgewood Police Department in Florida confirmed that the report against Invictus was filed on March 21. A spokeswoman for Invictus, Raquel Okyay, said there is no truth to the allegations whatsoever, saying that the alleged victim “is a drug addict and a prostitute.” “We have that evidence but we’re not releasing it,” she insisted when asked for proof. In the report, Invictus’ former girlfriend describes 15 months of abuse that included “smashing her head into the center console of a vehicle, pushing her out of a moving vehicle, punching her, kicking her, choking her until she would pass out, throwing her across a room and dragging her.” In one instance described in the report, Invictus allegedly beat the woman so badly her eyes were swollen shut. He then dragged her into a closet and held a gun to her head and asked why he “shouldn’t kill her.” In another incident detailed in the report, in January or February, Invictus allegedly beat her and again dragged her to a closet and held a gun to her head. He went on, the report claims, to sexually assault her. The woman, who says she has since moved out of the home the two shared, according to the report, described Invictus as a “high-powered attorney” with ties to white supremacists. She told investigators that despite no longer living with Invictus she doesn’t feel safe. Asked why she never previously reported the alleged abuse, she said Invictus threatened that if she “ever said anything to anyone he would hurt her family and friends.” Despite the report, Invictus could not be charged because the alleged crimes did not occur in the jurisdiction in which his former girlfriend reported them. The investigator who took her statement advised that she get an immediate injunction against Invictus and file a report with the Altamonte Police Department, which would have jurisdiction over the case. It’s unclear whether she ever did — a spokesperson for the APD said she found no incident report filed against Invictus when asked Tuesday. Invictus’ candidacy for Senate was marred in controversy and divided the state’s Libertarian Party. Adrian Wylie, the then-chairman of the state’s Libertarian Party and former gubernatorial candidate, resigned his post in opposition to the candidacy of Invictus, whose supporters, he said, are “known members of Neo-Nazi and white supremacist groups, such as American Front, Vinlanders and Stormfront, and he has been recruiting them into the Libertarian Party.” Wylie also accused Invictus of “brutally and sadistically dismembering a goat in a ritualistic sacrifice,” a claim Invictus did not deny. “I did sacrifice a goat. I know that’s probably a quibble in the mind of most Americans,” he told the Orlando Sentinel. “I sacrificed an animal to the god of the wilderness … Yes, I drank the goat’s blood.” An August 2015 blog post reportedly written by Invictus titled “A Call for Total Insurrection” also emerged during the campaign, in which Invictus wrote, “I want you to take LSD and practice sorcery. I want you to listen to trap music and black metal, to learn the law and to break it deliberately, to find your own religion. I want you to learn the use of firearms and subject yourselves to rigorous physical training. I want you to treat your bodies as Holy Temples and to take your girlfriend to a strip club so you can seduce a dancer in the back room. I want you to worship Nature and dance naked in the moonlight `round the fire, screaming in ecstatic joy.” Invictus ultimately lost the Libertarian primary but emerged as a prominent voice in far-right politics. Okyay, his spokeswoman, said Invictus is taking legal action against his accuser.
If you hadn't grabbed Yukon's balls and sucked his stuff, maybe ... just maybe there would be no issue anymore. I know, I know ... you just like sucking yukon's dick but the problem is that you did so on publick communication channels. Shame on you for training our youth about your wayward gravitation toward homosexuality.
Hey, Deckard….you libertarian freaks are some kinda weirdos … Augustus Sol Invictus, an Orlando, Florida attorney currently seeking the Libertarian Party's nomination for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by former Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubio, took part in a short interview with Wikinews reporter William S. Saturn to discuss his background, political views, and unorthodox campaign for the Senate. Invictus, whose name was changed from his birth name to the Latin for "majestic unconquered sun", has received media coverage for previously expressing fascistic views and participating in pagan rituals. While in law school, he penned an article advocating a eugenics program, and in 2013, he wrote a "departure memo" renouncing his U.S. citizenship and law license while announcing plans to go into the wilderness until a civil war. He returned after making a pilgrimage from Orlando to the Mojave Desert, where he fasted for a week. Upon his return to Florida, he sacrificed a goat and drank its blood. Former Libertarian Party of Florida chairman Adrian Wyllie resigned his chairmanship in protest of Invictus's candidacy. Though initially uncontested for the nomination, Invictus has recently received a challenge from information technology specialist Paul Stanton. Political operative Roger Stone opened an exploratory committee to consider running for the nomination but has not shown further interest. The primary election is to be held August 30. To qualify for the ballot, a candidate must either pay a US$10,000 fee or collect 100,000 signatures.
Let me know when libertarians start beating their wives at the same rate cops do. Police Family Violence Fact Sheet National Center For Women and Policing : Two studies have found that at least 40% of police officer families experience domestic violence, (1, 2) in contrast to 10% of families in the general population.(3) A third study of older and more experienced officers found a rate of 24% (4), indicating that domestic violence is 2-4 times more common among police families than American families in general. A police department that has domestic violence offenders among its ranks will not effectively serve and protect victims in the community.5, 6, 7, 8 Moreover, when officers know of domestic violence committed by their colleagues and seek to protect them by covering it up, they expose the department to civil liability.7 Police Have a Much Bigger Domestic-Abuse Problem Than the NFL Does Looks like Gatlin has been hitting the Sterno again. You can tell when he starts spamming the site with anti-libertarian bullshit. The LPF, in accordance, has withdrawn this press release. Mr. Invictus has always been a member in good standing, is a past Chair of the Libertarian Party of Orange County, a sponsor of the 2016 and 2017 LPF State Conventions, as well as a dedicated volunteer on the Legislative Review Committee. Your antifa propaganda is a FAIL! You've outed yourself as an antifa social justice warrior libertarian. Augustus Sol Invictus calls out Gatlin's antifa SJW libertarians, gives them the finger
