Overview:
The
Commonalities Between the Rise of the Nazis and the Tactics of the American Left Cannot be Ignored. First,
racial division was a central component of Nazi political strategy and philosophy. The Nazi Party was, without doubt,
the most racially obsessed political party in human history. Today's Democrat party is second only to the Nazi Party in
their racial obsession. Every piece of legislation, every accusation against their opponents, every aspect of American
society, even weather and climate is framed in racism. The Nazi Party's obsession with race focused on their perverted
belief in the inferiority and superiority of the races. This opened the door for blaming various racial groups for all
the problems facing the country. The American left are claiming the root cause of virtually all problems facing the
nation is "systemic racism" as theoretically instigated by one particular race. This obsession with race led to what is
now often referred to as "identity politics." Identity politics was not invented by the modern American left.
It was, in fact, a weapon in the arsenal of the Nazi Party.
To
Move Forward, Democrats Must Oust Obama. Obama pretends to rise above grievance, but
he's reliant upon it like an addict, like the "Revs" Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, though far
silkier and smoother. Remember just weeks ago when Obama was lecturing young black men who
weren't enthralled with the presidential candidacy of Kamala Harris. Bitter and angry, he
harangued them on what he could only understand as the sexism of the great unwashed. It was a
rap he had used before. And it had treated him so well in the past. It reverberated in
the halls of his many mansions. Perhaps even in that mansion on liberal Martha's Vineyard,
the vacation paradise for the immensely wealthy that was off limits to impoverished illegal
migrants who'd crossed the border on Democrat invitation. Yet those young men who he tried to
shame didn't live among the elites of Martha's Vineyard or the Gold Coast of Chicago. And
they weren't insulated from the poor economy and pressure from the illegals. Instead, Obama
was revealed by his own mouth to be be a complete and utter phony.
The
reason Democrats lost in a nutshell. It seems safe to say that the 2024 elections
were a rejection of divisive identity politics. People aren't interested in seeing themselves
or others basically assigned to a group because of some superficial characteristic and they're sick
of it happening. But a lot of Democrats simply don't understand that. They made it to
where they are because of identity politics and they lack the brainpower to argue any position
expect through that lens. A prime example of that is Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas.
[...] She, and people like her, are the reason that Democrats got [soundly defeated] in the
election. People are sick of pretending that the entire world revolves around race.
They're sick of people like her acting like race is not just a defining characteristic, but the
defining characteristic. There may be legitimate reasons to gripe, but interjecting identity
politics to try and derail a discussion of how the US Census Bureau may have tried to sway the 2024
elections, among others, is beyond disgusting. Then again, it's the only tool Crockett knows
how to wield in the halls of power, [...]
Coalition
of Black Churches Demands MSNBC Fire Al Sharpton. A powerful coalition of African
American churches is calling for the suspension and investigation of MSNBC host Rev. Al
Sharpton, alleging that donations from Kamala Harris's campaign to Sharpton's National Action
Network have compromised the integrity of the black Church and journalism. Last week, MSNBC
admitted it was "unaware" that Vice President Kamala Harris's presidential campaign had paid
$500,000 to Al Sharpton's National Action Network nonprofit ahead of a favorable interview with the
Democratic nominee on October 20, just weeks before the election, according to Fox News.
After Harris's defeat to President-elect Donald Trump, Federal Election Commission (FEC) filings
revealed that the Harris campaign made two $250,000 donations to Sharpton's National Action Network
in early September and October. Despite the apparent conflict of interest, the MSNBC weekend
host did not disclose the donations to viewers or to the network executives about the payments
before or after the interview.
From
the Moon to Broadband: How DEI Killed American Efficiency. In the waning days
of Biden's presidency, one thing has become abundantly clear: the insistence that every federal
dollar must pass through a filter of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) has been a colossal
drag on American efficiency and prosperity. [...] This insistence on DEI compliance isn't just
wasteful; it's fundamentally corrosive. DEI is rooted in Marxist ideology, with the goal of
destroying our national identity, undermining the cohesiveness of our communities, and
destabilizing our market economy. It erodes the very concept of merit — a core
principle that made America competitive on the global stage. The administration has chosen to
signal its virtue rather than deliver on its promises. Rather than judging contractors on
capability, efficiency, and results, we are saddled with a regime that demands racial and gender
diversity as a prerequisite for doing business with the federal government. This inevitably
leads to outcomes where the most qualified are overlooked in favor of the most politically convenient.
Democrat
Totem Pole is collapsing. After four years of FJB and his sidekick Kamala the Border
Czar, illegal aliens have overwhelmed major Democrat-run cities. This has shaken the Democrat
Totem Pole of voters. Democrats reshaped their party from a coalition of Southern
segregationists, ethnic minorities and factory workers into a stack of aggrieved minorities.
They stack the voting blocs into a totem pole. At the top are black voters. They are
13% of the population but they provide 25% of the Democrat vote. In exchange for their votes,
they get to double their impact. Keeping them happy is the unspoken first plank in the
party's platform no matter who their nominee is. Feminists used to be No. 2 but LGBT and
Hispanics supplanted them. Jews were somewhere on the pole but Hamas knocked them out on
October 7, 2023. Democrats adopted anti-Semitism from the river to the seas. For all
their reputation as being intelligent, Jewish donors keep feeding the beast. The totem pole
features multipliers. If you are black AND gay, you are above just being black. Black
lesbians hit a triple.
The
Political Apology-Cancellation Game. This game has been around for a while, though
it's been refined for 2025. Ross Perot gave a speech before the NAACP in his 2012 campaign,
and in that speech he referred to "your people," clearly meaning the black Americans that the NAACP
claims to represent. The predictable progressive left cried foul, loudly and in all the
left-leaning mainstream news media. It became so bad that Perot, who'd done nothing wrong,
bowed to the pressure and apologized. Shortly thereafter, he closed down the
campaign — I know, because I was his "Media and Strategy" director for his campaign in
the state of Nevada. Within a week of the apology, he was out of the race. He later
came to his senses and tried to revitalize his campaign, but it didn't work. He did hand the
election to Clinton, but before the NAACP debacle, he had the potential to actually win. He
was a long-shot, but he wasn't completely out of the question. So yeah, this has been around
for a long time.
Another
scandal rocks Kamala Harris's failed presidential campaign. [Scroll down]
Now about Al Sharpton. He is purportedly worth $5 million. Sharpton is a pioneer
race hustler who made his name and his millions with the ''donate or you are a racist' business
model. Whenever or wherever there was an incident or an occasion or an utterance that could
be branded as racist, Sharpton would turn up with his band of rowdy supporters and cause noise and
chaos. The sole means of restoring order was to 'donate' generously to Sharpton. The
seeds of all the racism hoaxes that have become omnipresent in contemporary America were sown long
ago by the odious fraud Al Sharpton. BLM used Sharpton's business model of enrichment over
the misery of black Americans and took it to another level. They surpassed Sharpton and made
him irrelevant, perhaps making him fiercely jealous. Everyone from AOC to Joy Reid is
following in the footsteps of Al Sharpton. Sharpton is known to use his charity organizations
to enrich himself and his family. Sharpton was also a tax dodger, back in 2016, Sharpton
personally owed over $3 million in federal taxes. Sharpton likely uses his 'non-profit'
organization like an expense account which makes Harris's $500,000 payment the equivalent of a
bribe or a pay-to-play deal[.]
Minnesota
Official Urges Staff To Ditch Thanksgiving, Learn About 'Colonial' Violence. The
Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) sent out a memo, exclusively obtained by The Daily
Wire, warning against the "colonial settler mythological" presentation of Thanksgiving and urging
staff members to instead reflect on the plight of Native Americans and celebrate "Truthsgiving."
The statement, sent out today and written by the director of the DHS Office of Indian Policy
Angie DeLille, encourages staff to reconsider their usual Thanksgiving celebration and allocate
money to "indigenous-owned businesses."
The Editor says...
Public officials in Minnesota should forget about "colonial violence" and pay attention to present-day
violence in their cities, of which there is plenty.
Jasmine
Crockett's Bizarre Rant: White People Can't Be Oppressed. Rep. Jasmine
Crockett, infamous for inflammatory outbursts in congressional hearings, unleashed another tirade
targeting "white" people and their push against Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI)
policies. During a markup hearing for H.R. 8706 — the Dismantle DEI Act of
2024 — on Tuesday, Crockett declared that white individuals cannot be oppressed despite
the explicit discriminatory nature of DEI. "There has been no oppression for the white man in
this country," Crockett shouted, as seen in a viral video shared on X. "You tell me which white men
were dragged out of their homes? You tell me which one of them got dragged all the way across
an ocean and told that 'you are going to go at work;' 'We are going to steal your wives;' 'We are
going to rape your wives.' That didn't happen. That is oppression."
Loud-Mouth
Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett's Bid for House Leadership Spot Crashes and
Burns. After losing both houses of Congress and the White House, the Democrats
decided what they didn't need was to be more abrasive. In a leadership vote that
showed some vestigial sanity is still pinned to the tail of the donkey's party, Rep. Debbie
Dingell of Michigan fended off a challenge by progressive Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas in a
caucus vote Tuesday for the chair of the Democratic Policy and Communications Committee.
While the results of the vote are private, sources told the Washington Examiner that Dingell
received 152 votes and Crockett 59. And, from the sound of things, it's rather
amazing the challenge garnered that much support: [...]
The Editor says...
I regret to admit (again) that Ms. Crockett is my representative in the U.S. Congress. She was
recently elected because she was practically unopposed: The only other choice on the ballot was
a Libertarian who apparently can't spell his own name. I wouldn't put Crockett in charge of a
shoe-shine stand.
Crockett
Goes On A Crazy Rant About Whites. Rep. Jasmine Crockett goes on a wild rant
against white people, and says they aren't allowed to use the word "oppression" because they
weren't dragged across an ocean. Crockett said that black people "didn't ask to be here."
"There has been no oppression for the white man in this country." "You tell me which white
men were dragged out of their homes, you tell me which one of them got dragged all the way across
an ocean and told that you were gonna go and work."
Dem
Rep. Jasmine Crockett Goes Nuts During Hearing, Starts Shouting About the 'White
Man'. The House of Representatives is becoming more of an insane asylum every day,
and Rep. Jasmine Crockett is the perfect example of that. During a hearing on Wednesday,
the Texas congresswoman went nuts, screaming about "oppression" and the "white man." Some
might call that racist. Democrats call that normal, as depraved as it is. Crockett lost
her mind while debating the "Dismantle DEI Act," which seeks to eliminate DEI initiatives within
the federal government. The incoming Trump administration has already identified it as a
priority. [...] Victimhood does not transfer through multiple generations, no matter how much
Democrats want it. Jasmine Crockett is a privileged politician who has had many advantages in
her life that many white people haven't. She was not "stolen." She makes nearly $200,000 a
year to sound like an imbecile during hearings. Victimhood may be the only currency she
knows, but she is not a victim. She is not oppressed.
Attacks
on Pete Hegseth. Donald Trump's cabinet nominees are coming under attack. They
all will, I suspect, to the extent that Democrats can come up with something to use against
them. Trump's choice for Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, has already been attacked on two
fronts, possibly representing vulnerability on his part, or more likely simply the importance of
his role. The first line of attack is outrageous. The Associated Press, a reliable
shill for the Democratic Party, doesn't like one of Hegseth's tattoos. Not the Jerusalem
cross, but the Latin phrase "Deus Vult," which is tattooed on his arm: [Photo] Who says the
phrase "has been used by white supremacists?" The AP offers no evidence. Someday I would like
to meet one of these white supremacists; if you take the liberal press seriously, they must be
everywhere, giving hand signals, getting tattoos, doing who knows what. All of which, evidently,
the rest of us are expected to keep track of and slavishly avoid. Actually, "Deus vult,"
"God wills it" in Latin (also, "Deus lo vult"), has long been a Christian rallying cry.
It goes back to the First Crusade. Nearly 1,000 years old, it has nothing to do
with white supremacy.
Identity
Politics Blows Up in the Democrats' Face. The plain fact of the matter is that the
progressive left's habit of politicizing everything, dividing people up into victimhood groups, and
then making policy based on the (imagined) interests of whoever sits at the intersection of the
most victimhood groups is very unpopular. [...] We all remember how, back in 2020, Joe Biden
announced well ahead of time that, in the interest of "diversity and inclusion" (yes, the
Orwellianism really is that bad), he was limiting his V.P. selection to black women. As a
result of this, he had to pick Kamala Harris — by all accounts one of his worst primary
opponents when it came to actually campaigning, but the only one who fit the race and sex
criteria. And then, after getting sworn in as president, Biden announced that when he got his
first (and only) Supreme Court vacancy, he would once again consider only black women.
The
election had nothing to do with racism and sexism, unless they're referring to the Democrats.
In 2020, Trump received 74 million votes, running against a white man, and this year he
received around 73 million votes, running against a black woman. I would challenge
anyone to do a simple analysis and show the evidence that the votes had anything to do with
Kamala's sex or race. Meanwhile, most people posing as journalists and entertainers, and
other Democrats like the Obamas, lectured people about how they ought to vote for Kamala because of
her race and sex, instead of talking about policies, results, or achievements. They wanted
the election to be based on sexism and racism, not Trump voters. And remember, Biden picked
Kamala as VP specifically because she was a black woman.
Identity
Politics, for the Win! [Scroll down] Harris has likely never seen a
racial disparity that she did not attribute to racism. If black females die of
pregnancy-related causes at a higher rate than white females, it is because of "systemic racial
inequities and implicit bias," in her words. Higher rates of obesity, diabetes, smoking, and
drug use? Lower rates of attendance at pre- and post-natal care visits and lower rates of
compliance with medical instructions? These other possible factors in different rates of
maternal mortality may never be considered; the problem is a white medical and political
establishment. [...] She spearheaded $1.5 billion to create a health-care workforce that, in
her words, "looks like America" (i.e., a health-care system that puts race above medical
qualifications). Harris celebrated the fact that three in four Covid vaccine doses administered
at community health centers were administered to "people of color," as she put it, consistent with
her advocacy for race-based medical practice. Vice President Harris was involved in the
multibillion-dollar push to remove lead pipes from black communities. It is doubtful that the
benefits of that effort outweigh the costs. She directed billions more in funding for
community banks, regardless of their efficiency, since their customers are disproportionately black
and Hispanic. In 2022, she called for giving hurricane relief "based on equity" —
i.e., based on race. And in a breathtaking violation of the Constitution, this month she
promised one million forgivable loans of up to $20,000 each to black business borrowers.
Kamala
Harris' Anti-White Racism Is Showing. In a scheme that immediately appeared destined
to face legal challenges, on Oct. 14, the Harris-Walz campaign's "Opportunity Agenda for Black
Men" promised to provide 1 million fully forgivable loans of up to $20,000 specifically for
black entrepreneurs. Destiny came even sooner than one might have expected. Amid a
media backlash, activist litigator Edward Blum threatened to sue the future Harris administration
over the policy. Just two days after announcing the agenda, on Oct. 16, the campaign
backtracked and stated the loans would be open to all regardless of race. Despite the
backtrack, the loans were just one of a slate of policies designed specifically to benefit black
men — a demographic that was once a Democrat stronghold, but which polling shows moving
toward Trump — in a strategy evoking Tammany Hall's famously corrupt system of paying
impoverished immigrants for votes. The "legal plunder" of taxing one group to enrich another
is sufficiently corrosive to social harmony to warrant outrage, but perhaps even more appalling is
the presentation of blatant racism as "progressive."

Harris
mocked for unveiling 'new accent' at Philadelphia event: 'Everything about this woman is
fake'. Vice President Kamala Harris debuted a new accent while speaking at a
Philadelphia church on Sunday, prompting brutal backlash from critics on social media who found her
preacher's tone "phony." Harris, 60, proclaimed the good news of her candidacy at the
predominantly black Church of Christian Compassion, brushing up on her biblical rhetoric to
emphasize how in just nine days, voters will "have the power to decide the fate of our nation for
generations to come."
The Editor says...
When the news media calls a church "predominantly black," that means it is entirely, completely, exclusively
black. When a Democrat makes a political speech in a tax-exempt all-black church, the press gets warm
and fuzzy about it. If a Republican made a campaign speech in an all-white church, it would be a scandal.
Kamala
Harris Suggests Men Are "Misogynist" if They Don't Vote For Her in Dumpster Fire Interview with Al
Sharpton. Two of the dumbest people in politics sat down to discuss the 2024
election. Professional race hustler and MSNBC host Al Sharpton interviewed Kamala Harris on
Politics Nation. The interview with prerecorded and aired Sunday evening. Al Sharpton
asked Kamala Harris about her lack of support from men of all races. Black men are not
supporting Kamala Harris which is why the Democrat machine sent Barack Obama on the campaign trail
to shame black men. Earlier this month Barack Obama scolded black men and told the 'brothers'
that they had to vote for Kamala Harris. [Tweet with video clip]

Former
Romney Strategist Warns Republicans Might 'Burn Down' Election Centers to Stop Black Votes.
Stuart Stevens of the Lincoln Project, a former campaign strategist for Mitt Romney's presidential
run in 2012, suggests Republicans could "burn down" election centers in an effort to disenfranchise
black voters. Stevens was a guest of "Chris Jansing Reports" Tuesday, where he told the panel
that Trump supporters might try to "violently disrupt" vote counts in predominantly black cities on
Election Day. He claims disputes over voting tallies in the previous election centered around
cities that have a "high percentage of African-American voters," then presents a scenario in which
the Trump campaign thinks they are in a losing position because of those locations.
After
Locking Up 1000s For Weed Possession, Kamala Harris Patronizes Black Men In Pot Pandering
Scheme. On track to post Democrats' worst presidential-election performance with
blacks in 64 years, a desperate Kamala Harris smashed the vote-buying button on Monday,
proposing an "Opportunity Agenda" for black men that includes dishing out one million "forgivable
loans" at $20,000 each. The loans would be offered to black entrepreneurs "in partnership
with trusted organizations like mission-driven lenders and banks with a proven commitment to their
communities," the Harris-Walz campaign said. If these "forgivable loans" are anything like
the ones dished out to businesses during the madness of Covid stimulus, they'll be loans in name
only — meaning this is just a blatant wealth redistribution scheme aimed at buying black votes.
This
Is Kamala's Plan on How to Win Back Black Men. Last week former President Barack
Obama sounded the alarm about losing the 2024 election against former president Donald Trump and
berated black voters, specifically men, for failing to support Vice President Kamala Harris' bid
for the White House. [Tweet] The Democratic Party is panicking and today, Harris released
a new agenda specifically targeted for black male voters. It includes the following:
["]
[#1] Providing 1 million loans that are fully forgivable to Black
entrepreneurs and others to start a business.
[#2] Championing education, training, and mentorship programs that help Black men get
good-paying jobs in high-demand industries and lead their communities, including pathways to become teachers.
[#3] Supporting a regulatory framework for cryptocurrency and other digital assets so
Black men who invest in and own these assets are protected.
[#4] Launching a National Health Equity Initiative focused on Black Men [...]
[#5] Legalizing recreational marijuana and creating opportunities for Black Americans
to succeed in this new industry.
["]
The Editor says...
[#1] Providing taxpayer-funded benefits exclusively to black men is not the proper role of government,
to say the least. It is reverse discrimination. [#2] A "fully forgivable" loan is just a
handout. Calling it a loan doesn't fool anybody. [#3] Subsidizing recreational marijuana
will not benefit this country in any way. There is already far too much recreation going on,
and not enough work. Encouraging the use of marijuana is just a way to make the black men more docile.
[#4] We're not living in 1949. Black men already have opportunities to succeed, start a business,
or invest in Bitcoin, just like anybody else.

Vote-Buying: Harris Promises Black Men $20k 'Forgivable Loans'. On track to

Kamala
Harris's Racially Patronizing Agenda. Kamala Harris's so-called "Opportunity Agenda
for Black Men" is not just misguided — it's the epitome of the soft bigotry of low
expectations. It stands as a stark reminder of why Harris's policies are detrimental not only
for Black Americans but for the very fabric of American society. Her patronizing proposals
reek of a condescending mindset that views Black men as incapable of success without the
omnipresent hand of the government leading them by the nose, their ambitions shackled to the whims
of state bureaucrats. If you want a future where Black men are seen not as individuals, but
as perpetual victims needing special allowances, then Kamala Harris is your candidate. But
for those who believe in equality of opportunity, who trust in the American spirit, Harris's
proposals are nothing short of an insult to both intelligence and integrity.
Barack
Obama's 'You Ain't Black' Moment Backfires on Kamala. With the polls starting to show
a shift toward Trump, the Harris-Walz campaign is showing signs of desperation. They're not
just sending Kamala out to do softball interviews; they're sending past presidents like Bill
Clinton and Barack Obama to seal the deal for her. On Thursday evening, Barack Obama was in
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, tasked with the job of boosting black voter turnout for Kamala
Harris. More specifically, Obama's goal was to help Kamala win over black men, who are
increasingly leaning toward Trump. Obama's messaging was, to say the least, insulting.
Like Joe Biden's "you ain't black" moment in the 2020 campaign, Barack Obama used race and gender
to shame black men for not supporting Kamala.
Herschel
Walker to Barack Obama: 'Telling Us to Vote Based on Color Is a Step Backward'.
Former Georgia candidate for U.S. Senate Herschel Walker blasted Barack Obama for sending black
people backward in equality by demanding they vote based on skin color. Walker's slam against
Obama came after the former president warned that not enough black people — especially
black men — are supporting Harris, according to the current polls. "Barack Obama,
you forgot how hard we fought for our right to vote! Telling us how to vote based on color is
a step backward. The bad policies of Biden/Harris have hurt us all. We need unity
brother, not division!" Walker wrote, adding #Togetherwestand.

Barack
Obama's racist, crude day appearing on Kamala's behalf. In the lead-up to and during
Barack Obama's presidency, we were relentlessly told that Barack Obama was a racial healer and a
man of unusual, almost James Bondian suave sophistication. Both were lies. Barack Obama
has always been a race hustler and a crude, low-thinking person. Both traits appeared during
campaign appearances he made yesterday on Kamala's behalf, where he made a vulgar crack about
Donald Trump and shamed young black men for voting for their interests rather than their skin
color. Obama's obsession with race and his determination to impose on America his divisive
racial visions were heralded by his long relationship with Rev. Wright, the America-hating,
antisemitic preacher, and his more tightly guarded relationship with the truly vile Louis
Farrakhan. Aside from his ferociously racist associates, Obama just kept letting slip those
racist statements that belied his 2004 declaration that America couldn't be divided along color
lines (whether political party or race).
Obama's
racism [was] on full display as he spoke to black Harris campaign workers in Pittsburgh.
[Scroll down] When I heard this audio as it broke on FOX News shortly after 8 PM ET
last evening, it instantly brought back to my memory all of the [nonsense] that Obama has spewed since he
ascended the national stage at the Democrat Convention in Boston in 2004. Twenty long years now
that we have had to put up with his divisive racialist nonsense, and he isn't finished yet.
Obama
Gets Honest About Kamala's Big Problem, Shows How Desperate Dems Are. How do you know
the Democrats are worried and desperate? They're now pulling out the only "big guns" they
have left including Barack Obama and Bill Clinton. Obama was in Pittsburgh for a Black Voters
for Harris event. He spoke to about 40 people and he identified a big problem that
Kamala Harris faces: that she isn't generating much enthusiasm for her. What's the problem,
according to Barack Obama? It's on the "brothas." "We have not yet seen the same kinds
of energy and turnout in all quarters in our neighborhoods and communities as we saw when I was
running," Obama said, frowning. [...] I don't know about you think, but it sounds to me like he's
struggling to whip up enthusiasm.
DOJ
Searched For Anti-Haitian Incidents to Bolster Kamala's Claims, Emails Show. As
Democrats worked to blame former President Donald Trump and Senator J.D. Vance for inciting hate
crimes against Haitians, the Biden-Harris Department of Justice searched high and low for any
evidence to support their accusations, emails obtained by The Daily Wire show. On
September 13, Jomaica Sherman, a Lead Conciliation Specialist at the DOJ's Community Relations
Service (CRS), wrote to Rachel Roberts-Pickett, an official with Catholic Charities Dallas, that
"my colleagues and I were tasked with researching information regarding the Haitian Community."
"Are you aware of any reports of hate crimes, hate incidents, or community conflicts surrounding
the Haitian Community?" Sherman asked. Roberts-Pickett forwarded Sherman's emails to others
to try to uncover examples of anti-Haitian incidents. Catholic Charities is paid by the
federal government to resettle migrants. During that time period, Vice President Kamala
Harris was campaigning on the claim that Trump and Vance had inspired anti-Haitian hate crimes.
Learning
the Wrong Lessons From History: The Lasting Legacy of Barack Obama. Obama's
victory represented the ultimate realization of racial equality: Now, finally,
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s dream and the American Dream were united. We were, at long
last, one nation, under God — indivisible — with liberty and justice for all.
[...] That should've been the crowning legacy of President Obama. He should've gone down in
history as the president who helped heal America's racial rifts. It was low-hanging
fruit! But instead, the exact opposite happened: The lasting legacy of President
Obama isn't that he delegitimatized the race-hustlers. It's that he legitimized the race
hustlers' tactics of identity politics. Between 2019 and 2020 alone, the percentage of
Democrats who believed America hadn't done enough to help black people obtain equal rights rose
from 66% to 78%.
Learning
the Wrong Lessons From History: The Lasting Legacy of Barack Obama. America is
still America, and the Republican Party is still the Republican Party. But the Democratic
Party itself has changed dramatically. Since the election of Obama in 2008, it's become the
one-stop shop for people who believe the American Dream isn't just dead, but that it never actually
existed in the first place: It was all lies by white supremacists. And in just a few
weeks, the generation that was in elementary school when Obama was elected president will be voting
for the first time. Their interpretation of America is viewed through the scope of Obama's
lens[,] and they don't like what they see. To them, this country is systemically unfair,
racist, dishonest, and an instrument of global evil.
Kamala's
Got Another New Accent. Vice President Kamala Harris debuted a new accent on Saturday
night during a Congressional Black Caucus event, with many accusing her of being racist.
Harris was trolled on social media after she told the crowd, in an accent far from her own, that
the members were in a "battle for the soul of the nation." "Hello to all my divine... brothers
and sisters... am my soro..." Harris said. She was then seen laughing. [Tweet with
video clip] Social media mocked the vice President, saying this is "just another example
of how disconnected she is from everyday Americans." [More tweets]

Harris visits black audience in Detroit, slaps on a brand new 'Foghorn Leghorn' accent.
Kamala Harris has often been criticized for the rote quality of her speeches on the stump. She's
actually made herself a figure of fun for giving the exact same speech in each city she visits, going
word-for-word: [Tweet with video clip] But while her words are the same, Harris does
change one thing around now — the regional accent she uses to deliver them in, according to
how she thinks the audience speaks. In Detroit, she spoke with this brand new accent:

white rooster figure with the overbearing Southern accent in children's Saturday morning cartoons.
Kamala
Harris Pushed for Removing School Police to Combat Racial Inequities During 2019 Presidential
Campaign. Vice President Kamala Harris called for the removal of police officers from
schools in 2019 to address racial disparities in student discipline, according to remarks she made
during her first presidential campaign. [Advertisement] In a 2019 interview during her
initial run for the presidency, then-Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) argued for eliminating
on-campus police presence to address racial inequities. [Advertisement] In a recently
resurfaced clip of the event, Harris voices her concerns about the disproportionate rates of
suspensions and expulsions among black and brown students, calling for a reevaluation of how
discipline is enforced in schools. [Tweet] "What we need to do about demilitarizing our
schools and taking police officers out of schools. We need to deal with the reality and speak
the truth about the inequities around school discipline," she says. "Where in particular, black
and brown boys are being expelled and or suspended as young as ... in elementary school." [Advertisement]
Kamala
Harris once compared policing to lynching and Jim Crow. Democratic presidential
nominee Kamala Harris — who eagerly describes herself as a prosecutor running against
"felon" Donald Trump — likened law enforcement in America to lynching and Jim Crow
restrictions during the height of racial unrest in mid-2020. "When we say that America has a
history of systemic racism, we mean that from slavery, Jim Crow laws, lynchings, and policing, our
institutions have done violence to black Americans," Harris, then a senator from California, said
during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on "Police Use of Force and Community Relations" in
June of that year, weeks after the murder of George Floyd by Minneapolis police officer Derek
Chauvin. "And it has caused black Americans to be treated as less than human across time, place,
and institution," Harris, now 59, added before calling for the elimination of "systemic racism."
Here
we go again with that hopey-changey scam. [Scroll down] You might wonder
how Obama got away with a campaign so short on particulars. Why didn't the press ask him for
some? Two reasons. First, the press wanted a Black man to be elected President and
would settle for a half-Black one who "identified" as all Black. Indeed, they liked it better
that way because this crowd is scared of fully Black men who have left the Democrat plantation.
(See, Thomas, Clarence and Sowell, Thomas) I voted against Obama for reasons having nothing
to do with his race. It was because he looked far too liberal to me. His race was
actually a positive for me. On election eve in 2008, I felt a bit of pride that America had
elected a Black man to be President. What an opportunity for healing, I naively
dreamed. Second, the press even back in 2008 was overwhelmingly liberal, and, despite Obama's
vague campaign, they could see that he was too. People who hang with the Reverend Wright and
Bill Ayers are plenty liberal if not downright radical. These two factors set the stage for the
press's most obvious and shameless bias since the days of Franklin Roosevelt — when we had
a world war to win. Because in the minds of the press, we had another world war to win.
Senator
Schumer Accuses Trump of Anti-Semitic Tropes While Promoting Al Sharpton.
[Scroll down] Many people, and especially those who lived in Wappingers Falls, New York
in 1988, have very different recollections of Sharpton. Sharpton played a central role in the
Tawana Brawley hoax, and he was found guilty of defaming an attorney with a false accusation of
rape — much like the Ku Klux Klan once accused black men of raping white women, and
often lynched them on that basis. Sharpton's associate Alton Maddox was suspended from the
practice of law for his role in the hoax. Next came the Crown Heights riots in 1991, in which
a Jew named Yankel Rosenbaum was murdered: [...] Sharpton later equated Israel to Hell. Next
we come to Sharpton's National Action Network, which Schumer says "...fights for one standard of
justice, decency, and equal opportunities for all people." That's an interesting description of an
organization that marched around Freddy's Fashion Mart in 1995 while yelling racist and
anti-Semitic epithets, much as the Ku Klux Klan once marched around black homes and
businesses. A deranged individual later acted on threats to set the store on fire by doing
exactly that and killing seven employees, including a black security guard whom Sharpton's people
had called a "cracker lover."
Democrat
Platform Says America Was Built on Stolen Land. The DNC 2016 party platform began by
claiming that "Democrats meet in Philadelphia with the same basic belief that animated the
Continental Congress when they gathered here 240 years ago." Four years later, out went
the Continental Congress and all of America. The 2020 DNC platform began with a politically
fashionable 'land acknowledgement' asserting that America was an illegitimate entity operating on
stolen land "built on Indigenous homelands." The 2024 platform likewise begins with a 'land
acknowledgement' claiming that Chicago properly belongs to 13 different Indian tribes. Once
again, the DNC asserts that they "recognize that our country was built on Indigenous homelands."
That is to say America should not exist. If the Democrats truly believe it, why not turn
over Chicago to the Indian tribes?
The Editor says...
If the Democrats are right about America (and they aren't), then what was the last country
that was NOT "built on stolen land?"
DNC
Caucuses [are] Segregated by Race. The DNC kicks off in Chicago on Monday to formally
nominate Vice President Kamala Harris later this week, despite her never receiving one vote in the
primaries. In a move that's in no way surprising given how obsessed Democrats are with race,
the DNC is segregating their caucuses. Multiple posts shared to X show official DNC signs
directing delegates to attend certain caucuses by race and at one time. On Sunday, the eve of
such a kickoff, the Breaking 911 account shared a list of several caucuses segregated by race and
other criteria, including a vague "Ethnic Council Meeting." There are also a "Black Caucus
Meeting," a "Hispanic Caucus Meeting," an "AAPI Caucus Meeting," and a "Native American Caucus
Meeting." [Tweet]
Ten
Techniques Marxists Have Deployed to Gain Influence. [#5] Identity politics:
This involves claiming power or entitlement based on race, ethnicity, sex, or sexual
identification, and is usually accompanied by loud assertions of victimhood. Merit, effort,
innovation, grit, individualism — virtues that transform lives and cultures —
are negated as undesirable bourgeoisie, "white," or capitalist traits. Intersectionality, a
posited cousin of identity, has invaded the evaluation process for public and private institutions,
job candidates, academic performance, and so on. Based on the notion that a person may be
marginalized or victimized by any aspect of his or her identity or experience, intersectionality
demands compensation through relaxed standards. Identity politics is also used to coerce
support. In the last election, black supporters of Trump were told they "ain't black" if they
aren't voting for Biden.
Kamala
Has Democrats in Real Trouble. Although it's arguable that [Kamala] Harris had some
success with voters in deep blue San Francisco and California, she has always been extremely
unpopular at the national level. In 2019, she was eviscerated in the Democrat primary,
withdrawing before a single state primary vote was cast. [...] This might have ended any potential
for Harris to get near the presidency in any other sensible moment in American history. But
we don't live in sensible times. Kamala Harris is a woman, you see, and though many Democrats
can't readily define what that word means, they're steadfastly sure that it's a good thing and
worthy of their votes for some reason. She's also not white, and that confers additional
merit somehow. Therefore, her incredible unlikableness was ignored when Joe Biden faced
"tremendous pressure" from Democrats to pick a woman "of color" for his running mate in 2020.
Here
are more than 50 preachers all praising Kamala Harris and her miraculous fundraising efforts, all
using the exact same talking points. There's a lot of talk about shepherds being for
sale lately, and if this isn't that problem in spades, I don't know what is. Our boy Woke
Preacher Clips did the painstaking work to put together a montage that's nearly 7 minutes
long, featuring more than 50 pastors, all saying the exact same thing about Kamala Harris a couple
of weeks ago. This is insane: [Tweet with video clip] This is like those
videos showing all the local news anchors saying the exact same thing. Except it's all
"pastors" using their Sunday pulpit to spread the "good news" of Kamala Harris and the black women
who are supporting her. [Tweet]
Equality,
Equity, and Kamala Harris. In February 2021, when Harris had been vice president
for a month, she took part in a virtual celebration of Black History Month. She took the
occasion to say this: "And if the goal is truly about equality, it has to be about a goal of
saying everybody should end up in the same place. And since we didn't start in the same
place, some folks might need more equitable distribution." It's difficult to imagine a
major-party nominee for president saying that. But that's what Harris said. Should she
become president, she would have much more power to pursue her goal of equity across the entire
country. She would be a president pushing DEI, inequality, discrimination, and communism.
[...] Ryan Bourne sums up Harris' position nicely. The problem with Harris' perspective is
that it's ridiculous to think that when treated equitably, people will end up in the same
place. There's no reason to expect different individuals (or different groups) to achieve the
same economic outcomes or be equally represented in society when everything else about their
upbringings, education, work experience, and/or other characteristics are made the same.
There is no reason to expect that, even if 'equity' (as Harris defines it) could be achieved, we
would all 'end up in the same place.'
Kamala
Harris, the Rachel Dolezal of American Politics. Lately, Americans live in a world
where the label "racist" has become a weapon that has power in circles where, based solely on skin
color, political correctness has made it advantageous to play the victim. There are some
black and brown-skinned people who use the word "black" as an adjective to segregate almost
everything. There is black history month, black museums, and even "black" colleges where
"black" women study to become "black" journalists. Then, at functions like the annual
gathering of the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ), if the sole white guy who
happened to generously fund historically black colleges dares to use the word "black" to describe
anything, he's immediately labeled a racist.
Kamala
Harris has been identified as Indian, Black and Asian American by newspapers.
Newspapers across the country have historically made issue of the race of Democratic presidential
candidate Kamala Harris since her first days in public office. Newspaper stories now more
than 20 years old have referenced Harris as an Indian-American and as a Black woman.
More recently, they have described the vice president also as "Asian American." Race has become
an issue because former President Donald Trump said he didn't know Harris was Black "until a number
of years ago."
'Race-faking'
is now okay? So Kamala Harris has shared heritage from India and Jamaica, but
identifies as black? I thought being black was the provenance of African heritage, and why is
it so sensitive of a question to raise? Is it not a legitimate inquiry? Usually when a
question provokes such a disproportionate and angry backlash, it indicates that the inquiry is
hitting a nerve because those being questioned have no good response. Are blacks descended
from Africa not offended when non-Africans appropriate their culture, history, and heritage for
political purposes? It's funny, when Jessica Krug and Rachel Dolezal masqueraded as black
women while being white, they were taken to the woodshed for their temerity to culturally
appropriate another race.
Pentagon
Finds Another $2 Billion in Ukraine Aid 'Accounting Errors'. The Pentagon
discovered $2 billion in additional accounting errors regarding its valuation of missiles,
ammo, and other equipment provided to Kiev, a Government Accountability Office (GAO) report found
on Thursday. The Defense Department made a similar claim last year, saying it availed
Washington of $6.2 billion in weapons to fuel the Ukraine proxy war with Russia. This
latest report brings the improperly valued military material to a total of $8.2 billion, with
the error said to be a result of unclear accounting definitions. In June 2023, the
Pentagon insisted that weapons shipped to Ukraine from US military stockpiles, under the
Presidential Drawdown Authority (PDA), over the past two years were overvalued using the
"replacement value" of the arms as opposed to the "depreciated value." This bought the White
House some time to continue sending weapons to Kiev after much of the US funding then allocated for
the war had dried up.
Kamala
chose black. People say Kamala is not too bright but in choosing to emphasize her
Jamaican roots over her Indian-American roots, she was headed on the road to the vice presidency
and maybe the presidency. [...] I praise her for her selection because she read the politics
right. Elections are not about issues but rather optics and emotions. Choosing to
emphasize her blackness over her Indian ancestry was a savvy move because of racial
stereotypes. The stereotype is Indian-Americans are spelling bee champions, convenience store
owners and descendants of call center operators. Black stereotypes are of an oppressed people
who deserve a system rigged in their favor, as affirmative action nears its 50th anniversary.
Conservatives bemoan the prejudice of low expectations but Obama, Kamala and Justice Brown Jackson
have zero problems with it.
Kamala
Harris Is a Race Hustler. Vice President Kamala Harris is a race hustler, a divider
when the nation needs a unifier. If Democrats make Harris the nominee for the nation's top
job, Americans will be given a stark choice in November: between racial preferences and
fairness. A President Harris would rub raw the racial divisions in this country and ignite
new violence in our streets. In 2020, it was then-Sen. Harris who cheered on the Black
Lives Matter protesters terrorizing neighborhoods and businesses after the tragic death of George
Floyd. It was Harris who urged Americans to put up cash bail for BLM protesters arrested in
Minneapolis for attempted murder, burglary and other crimes. In 2023, it was Harris who
bashed the U.S. Supreme Court ruling that colleges must base admissions on merit, not skin
color. She rejected the court's ideal of a colorblind society, arguing that being colorblind
is being blind to "the strength that diversity brings to classrooms, to boardrooms."
MSNBC
star Joy Reid says Americans of color are 'going to look real crazy' and 'weird' if they don't vote
for Kamala Harris in November. Black Americans risk being shunned by their
communities if they do not fall in line and vote for Kamala Harris, Joy Reid has warned her
followers. In an apparent bid to shame support for the vice president and away from Donald
Trump, the firebrand MSNBC host warned black voters they were going to look 'real weird and real
lonely' if they do not back the 'woman of color extraordinaire' in November's presidential
election. At the same time, she renewed hostilities with black model Amber Rose, who
infuriated the liberal talking head by speaking in support of Donald Trump at the Republican
National Convention last week.
Kamala
Harris can only offer Americans more of the same old identity politics.
[Scroll down] With pressure mounting on Biden to step down, Harris's team let it be
known that it would be "offensive" if he were to name a white successor, even — it was
implied — if that person was of far greater competence than her. Remove race from
the equation, and Harris is a terrible pick for VP. Add it to the mix and she is still a terrible
pick, but one that is far more difficult to avoid without igniting a row over identity
politics. The Democrat party of today is composed of a sensible wing in mortal combat with a
radical fringe, led by the lunatic Alexandira Ocasio-Cortez and her fellow members of the "squad".
If Biden would have allowed his successor to be elected at the upcoming party conference, the
radicals would unite with the trade unions and may seize the nomination. Such a disaster is
likely avoided by the appointment of Kamala Harris. But who will she choose for her
running-mate? Someone from the moderate, Biden tradition or a sacred cow from the radical
Left? Frankly, at this point it doesn't matter at all.
Kamala
Harris Musters Fake Accent in North Carolina. Why does she always do this?
Kamala Harris was in North Carolina rallying a small crowd of supporters as Joe Biden stayed out of
the public eye after he announced he has Covid. Harris mustered a fake accent as she
delivered a campaign speech to North Carolina rallygoers in a city near Fort Liberty (previously
Fort Bragg). "We too busy watchin' what you doin' to hear what you're sayin,'" Harris said in
her fake accent.
Chicago
Mayor Governs as a Tribal Chieftain. In the 14 months since he was sworn in as
Chicago mayor, Brandon Johnson has revealed much about himself. To the lament of residents,
what we've seen is troubling for voters who had hopes Johnson would unite the city. When
Johnson finds himself in trouble — much of it his own creation — the mayor
falls back on race to defend himself. Last October, when asked about the migrant crisis and
if he had plans to visit the southern border, Johnson lashed out in a hysterical tone: "And
I'm doing all of that with a black wife raising three black children on the West Side of the city
of Chicago. I am going to the border as soon as possible." Shortly after his
outburst, Johnson cancelled his planned journey to the southern border. Yet despite his
family constraints, the mayor traveled to Los Angeles in February for a African American Mayors
Association meeting — he was accompanied by four bodyguards and three other city
employees. The mayor was just 150 miles from the southern border, but rather than
finding time to visit, Johnson instead, presumably with his entourage, attended the Grammy Awards
in downtown LA when he was away from the conference.
'God
Bless the Blackest City in the World'. Chicago celebrated 'Juneteenth' with 40
shootings. The Windy City kept up a Father's Day weekend in which 71 people were shot by
fatherless young men in a city where 8 out of 10 black children are born to single mothers.
And in which it's all the fault of "systemic racism". Over in Daley Plaza, Mayor Brandon
Johnson (pictured above) raised the 'Juneteenth flag' created by an activist who wanted the black
parts of Boston to secede and form a new city named 'Mandela'. But who needs Mandela, when
you've got Chicago? "God bless the blackest city in the world," Johnson, a radical who has
presided over massive crime and enjoys an approval rating of 28%, declared. With a 28% black
population, Chicago isn't even the blackest city in Illinois, let alone the U.S. or the
world. And the black population has fallen by 400,000 since the 80s. Hispanics are
actually the second largest group in Chicago, but since 60% of them disapprove of him, it's
understandable why he didn't want to mention them. Or the 68% of white people who oppose the
former teachers' union operative.
Biden
invokes JFK in cringeworthy attempt to relate to minorities in rambling black radio
interview. President Biden told a black radio station in an interview released
Thursday that he understood their struggle for representation — because he didn't think
Catholics could be president before John F. Kennedy was elected more than six decades ago.
Biden, 81, told Pennsylvania radio host Andrea Lawful-Sanders that he knew what his nomination of
Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court meant to "a young girl who is in school and having
trouble." "I looked at John Kennedy and said, 'Well, he — John — he got
elected. Why can't I get elected?'" the president said. "People need things to look up
to." Seconds earlier, Biden made the bizarre and nonsensical claim that "I'm the first president
that got elected statewide in the state of Delaware, when I was a kid," a lapse that will do nothing
to quell concerns over his advanced age, [...]
Delegate
Warns Black Women Will Destroy Dems If They Choose 'White Man Over Kamala'. A
delegate for President Joe Biden's reelection effort warned on Monday that black women will abandon
the party if Democrats replace the presumptive nominee with another "white man" instead of Vice
President Kamala Harris. Biden spoke with a raspy voice and trailed off during the Thursday
debate with former President Donald Trump, leading Americans to express concerns about his age and
fitness for another four years as president. Areva Martin, an attorney and California
delegate for Biden for President, said on "The Stephen A. Smith Show" that Democrats should "stay
the course" with the president and that passing over Harris with a "white man" would be a
dealbreaker with black female voters.
Kamala
Harris worried Democrats will replace Joe Biden with white candidate. Kamala Harris's
team is concerned that Democrats will install a white candidate ahead of her to replace Joe Biden,
arguing that it would be "offensive" to black voters to overlook her should the president stand
aside. Mr Biden is facing calls to step back from the race over concerns about his age, after
a disastrous television debate performance against Donald Trump on Thursday.
Littered
With Lies. When it comes to the most important moral issues of our time, few entities
have been on the wrong side of the truth more often than has the Democrat Party and their
apologists. [...] One of the most lucrative lies for the Left is the idea that "systemic racism"
still plagues the U.S. This is a rather effective lie as well, as three-fourths of Joe Biden
voters believe that America is a racist nation. Of course, it makes it rather easy to paint a
nation or an individual as racist when almost everything that exists can described as "racist." For
example, according to the Left, merely wanting peace and quiet is now "white supremacy." Similarly,
being fit is racist, the Electoral College is racist, math is racist, and even being born white is racist.
AOC
goes bonkers at Bronx Bowman rally, breaking out into black English. Is
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez going off the deep end? Sure seems like it, given her
manic campaign appearance before a New York City crowd on behalf of beleaguered pro-Hamas
congressman Jamaal Bowman, who's running for reelection, following a string of disgraceful
incidents in Congress, such as being caught pulling a fire alarm in an apparent bid to disrupt
Congressional proceedings. [Two tweets with video clips] Her mania can be seen
here, too: [Advertisement] [Tweet with video clip] [Advertisement]
She not only got out of control, bouncing up and down and waving her arms, she fell into speaking
black English, complete with 'yalls' and other words and phrases that Democrats think will appeal
to blacks in front of black audiences. Hillary Clinton did this, Kamala Harris did this, and
so did many others. None of them has any sort of down-home black background, it's pure
cosplay for them.

U.S.
gives up on failed $230 million Gaza humanitarian aid pier — disassembly to begin
as early as July. More government waste is making headlines after the Biden regime
announced that it is giving up on the $230 million Gaza humanitarian aid pier boondoggle in
the Middle East. After operating for just 10 days at a cost of $23 million per day,
the Gaza aid pier is being deconstructed in the latest example of federal government tomfoolery,
compliments of U.S. taxpayers. Remember back in March when President Biden rattled off from
his teleprompter during his State of the Union (SOTU) address about how important the pier was to
alleviating the humanitarian catastrophe imposed by Israel in the Gaza Strip? Well, it seems
the pier was not important after all. "The pier will go down as one of history's costliest
publicity stunts," reported Zero Hedge.
Ex-Bernie
Sanders Staffer Says Biden Must Cut 'Some Checks' To Sway Black Voters In Swing State.
Former Bernie Sanders staffer Tezlyn Figaro said on Monday that President Joe Biden needs to cut checks
to black Americans if he wants to be victorious in Michigan. Former President Donald Trump is
presently leading Biden in Michigan in a five-way race by .3%, according to the RealClearPolling
average. Figaro on "The Story With Martha MacCallum" said Biden's "only" chance of winning the
state is distributing money he owes to black voters. [Tweet with video clip]

Chicago
Teachers Union President Claims Republicans Don't Want Black Children to Read. Stacy
Davis Gates, president of the Chicago Teachers Union, seems nice. She verified what a lot of
teacher union critics say. In a radio interview on Sunday, Gates told the host that
conservatives don't want black children to learn to read because it is "part of the oath they take
to be right wing." [Advertisement] Well now. I must have missed that memo because
I don't know anything about an oath. [...] It is as Republicans have claimed for many years —
teacher unions are political activists not particularly focused on the needs of American school
children. The union contract being negotiated now with Chicago's public school system calls
for an extra $50 [billion] in funding. That's right — with a 'b'. The giant hike would
pay for wage hikes as well as other demands. For example, the demands include fully paid-for
abortions for union members, new migrant services and facilities, and many LGBTQ-related requirements
and training in schools.
Juneteenth
is yet another Biden payoff. Well, don't mind me, but, why "Juneteenth?" [...]
Tomorrow's 'holiday,' we can probably confirm, has something to do with Biden's DEI priorities,
which is to say, his priorities for keeping his Left and his 'Liberals" in the Democrat
fold — or the stock pen. It also has to do, yet again, with "civil rights" and
"slavery." O.K. Fair enough. But, given the fact that the Left has been busy under Biden
tearing down the history of our country via renaming and destroying monuments — and so
on — how can the American people be supposed to track on what actually happened,
anonymously apparently, sometime in June in more than a century past? No matter.
Another strong point in favor of Juneteenth — in fact, its only practical application,
is that it provides Biden's immense bureaucracy/voting bloc with another paid holiday. There
is no interest group in the U.S. that has close to the perks now enjoyed by the federal bureaucracy.
The
Guy Who Organizes Ballot Counting, Says Election Results Will Not Match Polling.
Hopefully readers here know exactly who James Clyburn is and what his function consists of within
the Democrat party election process. Remember, elections are no longer about "votes," modern
elections are about "ballots". The election winner is not the person who gets the most
votes. The election winner is the person who collects, submits and counts the most
ballots. The contest for electoral victory is who gains the most ballots, not votes.
That said, at the end of the ballot harvesting operation in the key state counties for Democrats,
there are precinct workers who are then tasked with counting those ballots. The number of
ballots needed to change the outcome of the election, is essentially the determining factor in how
many ballots the precinct workers in the key districts count. Most of the regional precinct
workers in the key counties that change the elections, are affiliated with and originate from the
AME church network.
Is
an electric vehicle collapse inevitable? [Scroll down] A famous aphorism
observes if the federal government were put in charge of the Sahara Desert, in no time at all there
would be a sand shortage. Here's why we have a charging station shortage: ["]But
internal memos from the Department of Transportation obtained by the Washington Free Beacon,
as well as interviews with those who are responsible for overseeing the implementation of the
electric vehicle charging station project, say the delay is in large part a result of the White
House's diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives. 'These requirements are screwing
everything up,' said one senior Department of Transportation staffer who spoke on the condition of
anonymity. 'It's all a mess.'["] How is DEI — didn't earn
it — screwing things up? At least 40% of the money has to go to "underserved
communities," which is brilliant because those are the communities least able to afford, or want,
an EV, so they have no use for EV chargers.
The Editor says...
Oh but they do have one use for electric car chargers: There's more copper to steal!
Democrat
who blamed GOP and Trump for 'Hinduphobic' messages has been arrested by Texas Rangers for alleged
race hoax. A Democratic candidate who blamed former President Donald Trump and other
Republicans for "Hinduphobic" messages sent to him on social media was arrested after an
investigation found that he had sent them himself. Taral Patel is a candidate for
commissioner for Fort Bend County, but he is going viral for being implicated in an alleged
impersonation racial hoax. In Sept. 2023, Taral Patel lambasted his political opponents
over the vile racism sent to him on social media. [...] On Wednesday, Patel was arrested. The
Democrat was booked on a third-degree felony charge of online impersonation and a misdemeanor
charge of misrepresentation of identity for sending himself racist messages after an investigation
by the Fort Bend District Attorney's Public Integrity Division and the Texas Rangers. Patel
won the primary election for the Democratic Party in March and is set to face Republican incumbent
Andy Meyers in November for the commissioner's seat for the third precinct. Investigators
said most of the posts that are suspected to have been secretly written by Patel were on Facebook
from Oct. 2022 until May 2024.
Joe's
Distemper Is Showing. It's been said that in the end, fate gives us all the face that
we've earned. That maxim seems to have been tailor-made for Joe Biden; can there be a more
revealing portal to the man's core than the unpleasant countenance he now imposes on the public?
[...] We saw Biden's true identity during his recent commencement "address" to Morehead College,
the historically black all-male university. It is difficult to imagine a more selfishly
destructive, dishonorable, and unworthy tactic than the one Biden employed on what should have been
a positive and hopeful occasion for these graduates. For the sake of political advantage,
this not-so-closeted bigot attempted to turn the place into a Plantation of Higher Learning.
Forget the efforts of these young men to educate and better themselves; according to this half-crazed
haranguer they were more likely destined for a George Floyd-esque fate in the irredeemably evil
America that Biden sketched.
Didn't
Earn It. [Scroll down] So perhaps a jeering minority will rid us of
today's most egregiously indefensible phrase: "Diversity, Equity and Inclusion." It's a textbook
example of doublespeak, the term inspired by Orwell's 1984 dystopia in which the Newspeak
language enables citizens to engage in "doublethink" — simultaneously holding two
contradictory beliefs. The words in DEI sound like admirable goals, but the officials
mouthing them are working to do just the opposite, as Florida governor Ron DeSantis observed when
he banned DEI initiatives at public universities. What DEI really stands for, DeSantis said,
is "Discrimination, Exclusion and Indoctrination." That formulation hasn't caught on, but
another one has: "Didn't Earn It." It went viral this spring after Ian Miles Cheong, a
conservative journalist, and Scott Adams, the Dilbert cartoonist, tweeted it to their
2 million followers on X. Adams, who had fearlessly predicted in 2015 — six
months before the first Republican primary — that Donald Trump would be elected
president because of his skill as a "master persuader," tweeted another forecast: "Whoever came up
with 'Didn't Earn It' as the description of DEI might have saved the world. Normally, the
clever alternative names people use to mock the other side's policy are nothing but grin-worthy.
This one could collapse the whole racist system. It's that strong."
They
lie because they get away with it. On Monday, we honored the million men who died defending
our great nation and protecting our God-given rights. Sadly, the current resident in the White House
decided to honor instead a drug addict and armed robber who died in police custody. His staff
perpetuated the lie that George Floyd was murdered by a policeman — a lie upheld by a
kangaroo court in Minnesota. That's the power of the Big Lie.
Joe
Biden spends his Memorial Day weekend celebrating George Floyd. The Memorial Day
weekend is on us, so quite a few people were surprised to see Joe Biden tweeting about this instead
of our selfless servicemen who paid the ultimate sacrifice: [Tweet] George Floyd? Who
was never in the service, let alone someone who gave his life for his country? He changed the
world? If one could call it that. Most people don't see the riots and looting that
followed his sadly predictable death with fentanyl in his system, complicated by his own decision
to resist arrest as 'changing the world.' Is Biden telling the public to take fentanyl and to
disobey police orders? As for act in his memory, what again is the old fool talking
about? Go rioting? Go looting? Expand DEI programs to unsustainable levels?
Accuse all cops of racism to the point of cops retiring at their desks? Nothing good came of
the death of George Floyd, a career criminal whose death, while a tragedy for him, was a pretty
preventable one. As for the public, his death and the radical response, driven to some extent
by Cuban and Venezuelan agents, was a disaster.
Dementia
Joe Circles Back to Racism. Anyone who's ever dealt with an Alzheimer's (or dementia)
parent or grandparent knows the routine — they only talk about five or six topics before
they return to the first. [...] If white supremacy is Joe's Topic #2, what could possibly be #1?
Drum roll, please... the topic that Biden always "circles back" to is racism. Biden starts
with racism, goes to topic #2 (white supremacy) and #3, then back to racism. The man is
obsessed with racism and returns to it over and over again. He's been doing this for
years. In 2011, Biden told a black audience that Republicans are "gonna put y'all back in
chains." In 2020, he told blacks, if you don't know who to vote for "you 'ain't black."
As a candidate, Biden made skin color (not competence) the primary qualification for his vice
president. As president, skin color (not competence) is Joe's primary consideration for
Supreme Court appointments. His focus on skin color must be belittling and condescending to
all blacks, especially those who are qualified and competent.
President
Biden's FDA Is Delaying Menthol Ban Until After the Election Amid Dwindling Black
Support. Remember when the Biden administration announced that it would place a ban
on menthol cigarettes? Well, it appears the White House could be close to making such a
prohibition a reality. The ban is supposedly, and racistly, intended to save black people
from themselves, given that menthol cigarettes are popular among African American smokers.
However, there are reasons to speculate that President Joe Biden could be slow-walking the process
for political reasons. The proposed prohibition on menthol smokes was introduced about two
years ago and was met with criticism from folks on the left and the right.
Biden
delays menthol ban amid 2024 concerns over black support. A two-year-old proposal to
ban menthol cigarettes may be delayed until after the 2024 election as President Joe Biden weighs a
move that could risk eroding his support within the black community. The Food and Drug
Administration first proposed banning menthols and flavored cigars in April 2022, but has
since missed two deadlines for finalizing the rule, the second of which expired at the end of
March. [...] But some observers say other priorities are behind the delay, namely the lack of
support for the idea as the election sharpens into view. Biden's menthol ban has received
praise from public health advocates who say it can save hundreds of thousands of lives. The
tobacco industry is also accused of disproportionately targeting the black community with its
marketing of menthol cigarettes.
The Editor says...
Those who smoke cigarettes are well aware of the health risks. The same is true of those who
smoke marijuana, or those who go snow skiing, sky diving, riding a zip line, or any of several
recreational activities that are all legal. Let the people decide for themselves what's safe
and what's not.
The
New Racism is Poisoning America. The idea that past racism can be undone with more
racism is ludicrous. Affirmative action, established in the 1960s, emphasized equality of
opportunity. But it has transmogrified — through the politics of DEI, sexual
orientation, and gender identity — into a new form of racism emphasizing equality of
outcome. Unconstitutional quotas deny college admissions and government jobs to whites and
non-black, non-Latino, non-Native groups. The worst is the recent invasion of healthcare by
DEI-driven policies. Belonging to a DEI-privileged group outweighs need. White patients
may have to wait longer than blacks or Hispanics for cardiac care or kidney transplants. All
in the name of "health equity" and righting past wrongs done to those groups. This column
will look at four recent lawsuits — among the many — that have been brought
against such policies.
There's
A Deadly Race War Raging In America. [Scroll down] What I mean by that is
that it's a perfect storm of Democrat malevolence. That storm has three components. The
first is what seems to have become the primary plank of the Democrat party; namely, alleged white
racism. Before Barack Obama, America's race relations had been largely improving for
40 years. With his "the police acted stupidly" comment, things got off on the wrong
foot, and after the deaths of Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown, things went south quickly.
Then, George Floyd's death in 2020 sent race relations into a tailspin. With the riots and
the shilling for BLM by everyone from the NFL to Microsoft to congressional Democrats, things took
a decidedly bad turn. Suddenly, we were told systemic racism was to be found everywhere, from
law enforcement to math to punctuality to proper English. At the same time, we had the
Pentagon, the White House, and practically every news organization in the country telling us that
white nationalism is the single biggest threat to the country and that blacks were in constant
danger. [...] The outcome of this perfect storm is that a significant proportion of the black
population hates white people, has little belief that blacks have a vested interest in civilized
society, and comes from homes in which no one teaches them right from wrong.
Rachel
Levine Plays the Race Card on Climate Change. The 2020s are like a South Park
episode. Assistant Secretary for Health Rachel Levine, a biological male who identifies as a
transgender woman, earlier this month took time away from encouraging pre-adolescent children to
explore their gender identities through the wonders of endocrine-disrupting pharmaceuticals to
lecture the public about how climate change might be racist. In a video posted on X, Levine
said, "Black Americans are more likely than White Americans to live in areas in housing that
increase their susceptibility to climate-related health issues," and added that "65% of Black
Americans report feeling anxious about climate change's impact." [Tweet]
A political speech by a condescending old white man in an all-black church:
AG
Merrick Garland Campaigns for Unsecure Elections, Slams 'Unnecessary' Voter ID. Joe
Biden's Attorney General, Merrick Garland, has made clear his intention to make America's elections
less secure, describing efforts to secure them as "burdensome and unnecessary." Garland made
the remarks at the Tabernacle Baptist Church in Selma, Alabama, during a commemoration of 'Bloody
Sunday' when civil rights protesters were brutally attacked by police. He also accused
federal courts of weakening the 1965 Voting Rights Act by allowing various common sense voting
restrictions such as presenting identification on arrival.
Democrats
Promise Fraud and Insurrection. The Democrat party is increasingly
undemocratic. Merrick Garland stood in front of a black church congregation in Selma, Alabama
and attempted to rally them by ensuring that he would facilitate all manner of election fraud
possible, proliferation of drop boxes, ensuring mail-in ballots are available and litigating any
red-state actions toward securing elections. He as much as admitted that the millions of
illegals they're letting in will allow for the district maps to be redrawn to favor
minorities. That the massive influx of low-wage workers and the government provision of all
their needs are direct attacks against minorities was probably lost on his audience. Your
Republican House passed the legislation to ensure the outcome that illegals could be counted in the
census and therefore dilute the votes of American citizens. If you are not here legally, you
should not be counted in the census for this reason alone.
Why
[a] Georgia Judge Won't Disqualify Fani Willis. Any rational person familiar with the
behavior of Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis during the prosecutorial misconduct
hearings that finally ended last Friday has probably concluded that her conduct has created the
"appearance of impropriety." This, according to defense lawyers for former President Trump and
several co-defendants, is sufficient to disqualify Willis and the Fulton County DA's office from
prosecuting the RICO case they launched last August. Indeed, defense attorney Harry
MacDougald cited six examples of actual conflicts of interest, any one of which is
sufficient to disqualify Willis and her office. Yet it's unlikely that it will happen.
Why not? The decision must be made by Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee, who said on Friday
that he would rule on the motion to disqualify Willis and her office in about two weeks.
Unfortunately for the defendants, McAfee is a temporary appointee to the bench who must face Fulton
County voters for the first time about 60 days after his ruling.
Women in
power abuse it. Upon taking office as mayor of Chicago after landslide victory in
2019, Lori Lightfoot said, "I know we're just a little bit closer to that dream as I stand here
today, inaugurated as Chicago's first black woman and first openly gay mayor. I know we're a
little bit closer as we celebrate that, for the first time in the history of Chicago, women of
color now hold all three of our citywide elected offices. Four years later, when she couldn't
make it out of the Democrat primary, she blamed racism and sexism. Democrats nominated a
black man. The media promoted women candidates — especially the women of
color — as being inherently superior to men. Let's see how that worked out.
The
nonsense of 'indigenous ways of knowing'. There was a time when you could count on
the left to defend science with the sort of zeal that would make a religious fundamentalist
blush. Scientific knowledge was once gleefully wielded to expose and mock the magical
thinking of creationists, anti-vaxxers, Flat Earthers, astrologers and homoeopaths. However,
this staunch commitment to scientific empiricism has recently begun to waver. It is now
increasingly coming into conflict with the new tenets of the 'diversity, equity and inclusion'
(DEI) agenda. You can see this clearly in the Biden administration's proposed new guidelines
for the US Department of Health and Human Services (HSS). As the Washington Free Beacon
reports, staff working in public-health agencies like the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and
the Centers for Disease Control (CDA), which are overseen by the HSS, could soon be instructed to
consider 'multiple forms of evidence, such as indigenous knowledge' when going about their
duties. Put simply, advocates of 'indigenous knowledge' argue that various cultures
throughout history have their own ways of understanding the world. And these alternative,
indigenous 'ways of knowing', they say, should be utilised alongside more established scientific
methods in research and in policymaking.
Will
White Males Become an Endangered Species in the Workplace? America was founded on the
principle that "all men are created equal." So how did whites end up at the bottom of a new
hierarchy of races? Why are lawsuits by whites alleging "reverse discrimination" —
racism of another kind — on the rise? Conservative writer Christopher Caldwell
says it all began in the 1960s. The decade marked a radical change in how
America — especially official America — viewed itself. In The Age of
Entitlement: America Since the Sixties, his objective, incisive analysis of the process,
Caldwell writes: ["]Today slavery is at the center of Americans' official history, with
race the central concept in the country's self-understanding. Never before the 1960s was this
the case.["] Until then, racial conflict in America was always seen against the larger
story — of building a constitutional republic.
Biden
Slammed for Buying Fried Chicken for Black Family in 'Outreach' Video. Before his
landslide victory in South Carolina's Democratic primary on Saturday, President Joe Biden released
a video in which he blatantly pandered to black voters while promoting ethnic stereotypes.
The video was filmed during a recent visit to Raleigh, North Carolina — anticipated to
be a key swing state in the 2024 election. Biden, along with Democrat Gov. Roy Cooper,
stopped at Cook Out, a North Carolina-based fast-food chain, before meeting with local Wake County
school administrator Eric Fitts and his two teenage sons, Christian and Carter. [Video clip]
Joe
Biden Put Out A Video Of Him Eating Fried Chicken With A Black Family To Get The Black Vote
Back. After new polls show President Trump taking about 30% of the black vote, which
is a game changer, bumbling Biden released a video of him eating fried chicken with black people to
reconnect. [Video clip]
Clyburn
Reminds Young Black Voters if They Don't Vote Biden "They Ain't Black". An NBC
article highlights South Carolina Congressman James Clyburn as one of the central players in the
game of Biden. As the article notes, Clyburn heads into the AME Church network, worried that
young black voters might not support the game. [...] The AME network are the ballot counters, the
precinct poll workers, spread throughout the various urban enclaves of Pennsylvania, Wisconsin,
Georgia, Michigan, Arizona, Virgina and both Carolinas. It's a race-based coalition,
dependent on conformity to achieve the objective. Clyburn is worried the BLM segment of the
process, the younger group, does not hold the enthusiasm needed to fulfill their role. The
AME network is prepared to be loyal to the agenda, but without the foot soldiers' things will be
much more difficult, and many of those foot soldiers don't like the Biden outcomes. The BLM
group feel they are being taken for a ride, which they are, and the only outcome will be more of
the same.
A political speech at an all-black church:
Biden
Lies at Pulpit About His Role in Civil Rights and Attending Black Churches. Joe Biden
on Sunday continued to pander to the black community in Columbia, South Carolina ahead of the
state's Democrat primary set for February 3. 81-year-old Biden participated in a political
event at St. John the Baptist Church on Sunday [1/28/2024]. He brazenly lied from the
pulpit about his role in the civil rights movement and his history of attending black
churches. This is just weeks after he lied about 'starting the civil rights movement' during
a stump speech at a black church in Charleston.
If
Michelle Obama's Running, Two Sentences from Her College Thesis Should Be Read by
Everyone. Since Michelle Obama is now being discussed as an alternative if the powers
that be within the Democratic Party decide to dump Joe Biden at the Democratic nominating
convention, it's time we start telling the truth about this woman. I have collected much
research on her over the years but for now, let's discuss her college thesis. In her thesis,
she makes the wild claim that America was founded on "crime and hatred" and that whites in America
are "ineradicably racist." Of course, history is a lot more complex than that. Most
Americans opposed slavery, which is why we had a civil war to end this evil institution. And
after the Civil War, racist laws would have been abolished a lot sooner, but the party Michelle
belongs to — the Democratic Party — blocked civil rights legislation for
decades. They were the party of slavery, Jim Crow and segregation. The Republican Party
was specifically founded to oppose slavery and racist laws, but Michelle seems to be unaware of
this. What's disturbing is that she constantly uses the terms "separationist" and
"integrationist" in her thesis when describing the views of black people, and her thesis clearly
identifies her as a separationist. So, if you are a minority who wants to get ahead in
broader society, Michelle thinks you're a sellout. Talk about divisive.
'Their'
Democracy: Tyranny Comes to the US. I am angered that Americans are being
conditioned to loathe our shared history and the very people who made our modern country possible.
[...] While declaring unity, our democracy cheerleaders encourage racial animosity. One way
is by falsely claiming white supremacy as our country's greatest threat. To combat their
perceived scourge of heritage America, they forced DIE and other race-based initiatives. They
supported violent aggression by BLM and ANTIFA while vigorously pursuing and prosecuting
Trump-supporters.
NY
Dem Rep. Yvette Clarke Says the Quiet Part Out Loud About Illegals: "I Need More People in
My District Just for Redistricting Purposes". As New York collapses under the weight of
Joe Biden's broken border and a neverending stream of illegals stretch resources, at least one NY Dem
is celebrating what it means for her politically. New York City Mayor Eric Adams shared that the
city is supporting 110,000 "asylum seekers" who have arrived since April 2022 with up to 10,000
more coming per month. In September, Adams told a crowd at an Upper West Side town hall meeting,
"Let me tell you something, New Yorkers. Never in my life have I had a problem that I did not
see an ending to. I don't see an ending to this. This issue will destroy New York City.
Destroy New York City," and "The city we knew, we're about to lose." But Congresswoman Yvette
Clarke (D-NY) sees an upside in illegals flooding American cities and said the quiet part out.
More illegals means help for redistricting purposes.
The Editor says...
In other words, she doesn't care what the flood of illegal immigrants costs this country;
she only cares about how it can benefit her political career.
New
Zealand MP performs ceremonial indigenous dance as part of her first speech in Parliament.
Bear with me here, this is Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke, New Zealand's youngest MP in 170 years,
and as she began her maiden speech (her first speech in Parliament) she broke out into a Haka
dance, which is very common among the indigenous Maori people of New Zealand. The traditional
dance is performed possibly to celebrate Maipi-Clarke's achievement, but I can't help but think
she's performing the dance in a sort of preparation for "war" as a new MP who is dissatisfied with
her country and its lawmakers (she was elected to represent the Maori native's political
party). [Tweet with video clip]
The
Case Against Progressive Utopia. Diversity, inclusion, equity (DIE) is a hallmark
movement for utopians. They advance CRT (Critical Race Theory) in schools and universities to
counter systemic racism: whites oppressing blacks and browns in housing, education, business,
healthcare, and government. Those who question systemic racism are automatically condemned as
"racist." Racism can be defined as "prejudice or antagonism against people based solely on
their membership is a racial or ethnic group." CRT embodies the essence of that racism that DIE
purports to oppose. The Democrat mayor of Boston, Michelle Wu, held a 2023 Christmas party
for "Electeds of Color." In the name of diversity and inclusion, she excluded and discriminated
against whites elected to Boston city council.
Why
Are Americans at Each Other's Throats? Ask Barack Obama. From the beginning of
Obama's presidency until its end, the man America's considered a unifier played one race card after
another. He enraged American law enforcement by falsely accusing a white Cambridge police
officer of "acting stupidly." He implied the officer was racially motivated when he gave to a
reasonable and lawful order to a black Harvard professor, who resisted it. When black Florida
teenager Trayvon Martin was shot and killed by a self-appointed neighborhood watchman, Obama said,
"If I had a son, he'd look like Trayvon." The jury found the defendant not guilty, and the jurors
said race played no role in the encounter. But Obama, who later embraced Black Lives Matter,
again advanced the false narrative of anti-black "systemic racism." Never mind studies showing cops
more reluctant, more hesitant to pull the trigger on a black suspect than a white suspect.
Why
wokeness really is like fascism. If you had to choose a political word of the decade
you could do worse than 'woke'. Because these days 'woke' — and its various subsidiary
forms: 'wokeness', 'wokery', 'wokerati', 'the great awokening', 'woquemada' — seems
ubiquitous, and very much part of the verbal furniture. And yet woke has a surprisingly short
history as a notable term. Though it was birthed in the 19th century, with noble origins
surrounding the struggle for civil rights, it achieved its present, greater and much-changed
salience as late as the 2010s — the Oxford English Dictionary only included it in 2017.
Since then, the word, initially deployed by people on the left as a badge of pride —
epitomising their awareness of social justice — has become more of a boo word, used by
people on the right, generally expressing dislike or contempt for perceived leftwing idiocies.
In this usage it becomes a kind of swearword and one that can be spat with gratifying, four-letter venom.
Democrat
Jacksonville Mayor Celebrates Removal of Confederate Statue. The newly elected
Democrat mayor of Jacksonville, Florida, celebrated the removal of a Confederate statue in the
city, which was officially gone before noon Wednesday. Democrat Mayor Donna Deegan, who won
her mayoral bid in May, celebrated the removal of the statue in Springfield Park, formally known as
Confederate Park. The monument in question, "In Memory of Our Women of the Southland,"
depicts a mother with her two children at her side, looking down at a book upon her lap. It
was erected in October 1915.
Democrats
Love Racists Because They Are Racists. Ever been to a club where the bouncer checking
IDs at the door is also working a clicker to keep a headcount so the place doesn't violate the fire
code capacity (by too much). Each person in is a click, each person out is a click. [...] The most
common button on the "progressive clicker," and their favorite, is the race button. They wear
it to a nub on an average day on MSNBC with the fervor of Hunter Biden face-planting into a pile of
blow. It's their go-to for everything. What used to be an emergency brake for when they
were losing an argument is now their opening salvo — calling something racist is easier
than trying to make a case or refuting facts and reality. That's wearing pretty thin, as most
people yawn at the charge now.
Michelle
Wu, Blasted for No-Whites-Allowed Holiday Party, Has Long History of Radical Racial
Activism. Boston Mayor Michelle Wu remains unapologetic for her decision to host a
holiday party on Wednesday at which only "electeds of color" were welcome. "I am honored to be
a part of this group," she told the media outside Parkman House, the city-owned building where the
party was held. "It is a long-standing affinity group that has grown in recent years here in
Boston, Massachusetts." Wu's only admission of fault for the racially segregated party was for
the fact that her aide, Denise DosSantos, unintentionally invited white members of Boston's City
Council to the party before subsequently uninviting them on account of their race. "It was one of
those emails that we've all sent at one point or another," Wu said, smiling. [...] Wu's failure to
recognize the inherent problem with a holiday party that specially excludes people of a certain
race is completely in line with how she usually conducts herself. She has long been a radical
racial activist who employs the divisive framework that categorizes people as either "oppressors"
or "oppressed." After the death of George Floyd, Wu, at the time a member of Boston's City
Council and a mayoral candidate, undertook a mission to "demilitarize" the city's police force in
the name of racial justice. This involved taking away the police department's means of using force.
Maine's
Department of Agriculture, Conservation, and Forestry Offered Free Park Passes Based on
Race. Maine's Department of Agriculture, Conservation, and Forestry (DACF) was, until
November 10th, offering free state park passes based exclusively on race. The initiative was
made by Maine's Nature Based Education Consortium (NBEC). Despite desiring "to ensure that
every Maine youth has access to powerful outdoor learning experiences," as the NEBC says on its
website, they focus their efforts on minority youth, rather than helping the poor regardless of
race. (The webpage for this program was deleted after reporters began asking
questions.) The NBEC and DACF partnered to raffle off state park passes to minorities as part
of the Thrive Outside initiative.
This
Is What Actual Systemic Racism Looks Like. Remember St. George of
Fentanylville, the career criminal who once held a gun to the belly of a pregnant woman? He
was martyred while resisting arrest for a felony, after having fought his way out of the
squad car and requiring four adult male officers to wrestle him to the ground. Whether he
died from the weight of the officers or from a drug overdose is open for debate. But what is
undebatable is the epilogue. American cities burned and innocents were murdered in response
to this supposed revelation of American systemic racism against blacks. Whatever your opinion
of Derek Chauvin, not a single shred of evidence has since emerged to suggest, much less prove,
that his actions that day stemmed from bigotry. Nevertheless, the allegation of a systemic
racism enmeshed in the very fabric of this country, curable only by a violent dismantling and
rebuilding of the entire edifice, was accepted as a priori by the entire Democrat power
structure and indeed by many a Republican as well. To even question the assertion was proof
of one's racism.
Stacey
Abrams Just Went on MSNBC to Call You Racist and Sexist for Not Liking Kamala Harris.
It will never cease to amaze me that Democrats continue believing they can insult or shame people
into supporting their politicians. It's as if they believe if they call you "racist" or
"sexist" enough times, you will finally throw up your hands and say, "Well, maybe Democrats aren't
so bad, after all." This is the tactic that was in full play when failed Georgia gubernatorial
candidate Stacey Abrams went on MSNBC to tell host Jen Psaki and the network's white progressive
audience that people don't have a favorable opinion of Vice President Kamala Harris because the
nation despises black women.
Would
The 'Woke' Movement Please Hurry Up And Die Already? What do we mean by "woke"?
It's the extreme-left mindset encouraged by the "Diversity, Equity, Inclusion" movement, the ugly
offspring of Marxism and critical race theory. Its intent is all-inclusive, covering the
entirety of culture, social interactions, and commerce. Indeed, the movement's ultimate goal
is to plant a permanent flag of ideological conquest in your brain so you'll be frightened to
transgress even a little bit of the thought boundaries they've set for you. It's
working. From once-sensible cops in Britain tearing down posters of Israelis kidnapped by
Hamas, to Hollywood's awful woke remakes of classic entertainment, to drag queens parading in
children's classrooms and events, to our own woke military, "woke" now seems culturally pervasive,
almost inescapable.
Who
Is Somah Haaland, The Activist Daughter Of Biden's Interior Secretary? Radical
activism has come to define the Biden administration, and Secretary of the Interior Deb Haaland
could be the poster child. For instance, just last week, the former congresswoman
participated in a bizarre video with a drag queen to promote the false narrative that "queer rights
are more under attack than ever." Meanwhile, the connections of Haaland's activist 29-year-old
daughter, Somah, have become a major cause for concern, leading to multiple ethics complaints
against the secretary over fears of undue influence. In September, the bilingual Hispanic
website ADN America documented Somah Haaland's relationship with a Cuban solidarity group linked to
the communist regime's intelligence apparatus. The connection stems from Somah's work for the
Pueblo Action Alliance (PAA), a far-left, Albuquerque-based climate group that often advocates
issues on behalf of the Laguna Pueblo.
Federal
Court Picks Alabama Congressional Map That Carves out Separate Black District.
Gerrymandering, whether engineered through judicial fiat or by legislators, is meant to weigh
electoral results in a certain direction. From the map selected by the three-judge panel
overseeing the Alabama redistricting map, it appears as though these judges are attempting to
thwart another Trump landslide in Alabama for 2024. [Tweet] Like the ouster of House Speaker
Kevin McCarthy, this may not work out the way everyone thinks it will.
Newsom's
bottomless cynicism reflected in his appointment of a black, lesbian, Maryland voter to fill
remainder of Feinstein's Senate term. It's impossible to be too cynical about Gavin
Newsom, the Brylcreem-topped governor of California who lusts after the Democrats' nomination for
president, even as he publicly mouths support for Biden. This is a man who bedded his best
friend's wife, after all. Caligula looks on in envy at the brazenness of Newsom's designation
of Laphonza Butler to fill the remainder of Dianne Feinstein's Senate term, expiring in January
2025. As a way of mocking the institution, Caligula only joked about appointing his horse
Incitatus as consul, a role reserved for senators, while Newsom has actually appointed a longtime
Maryland resident and registered voter to represent California in the Senate, a body the
Constitution designated to represent that sovereign states in the federal government. Butler
will take a big pay cut to join the Senate, which pays $174,000 for non-leadership solons.
The top-paid executive at Emily's List reportedly earns $950,000, almost five-and-a-half times what
a Senator earns, and more than 30 times the average income in the United States. But don't
expect the usual critics of CEO compensation to utter a peep.
Newsom's
'First Black Lesbian' Senate Appointee Immediately Hit With Scandal, Cover-Up. The
recent death of former Sen. Dianne Feinstein left Gov. Gavin Newsom in a
predicament. Would he keep his promise to fill the seat with a black woman even though two
white people (Adam Schiff and Katie Porter) are leading the 2024 race for the seat? As
RedState reported, the answer is yes. Newsom appointed Laphonza Butler, whose only
qualifications appear to be working on Kamala Harris' failed 2020 presidential campaign while being
a "black lesbian." Naturally, the California governor is touting the latter. [Tweet with
video clip] I'm just really glad we select the most powerful people in the country
based on race and who they sleep with. I mean, what could possibly go wrong with such an
approach? What does merit have to do with governing competently anyway? Let's ask
Newsom, who apparently appointed a Maryland resident to the seat, birthing an immediate scandal.
Gavin
Newsom Picks The Perfect Democrat. Is it really that weird that Laphonza Butler,
California Governor Gavin Newsom's pick to replace Diane Feinstein in the Senate, lives in
Maryland? Now, incidentally, this isn't one of those instances where a politician is spending
an inordinate amount of time in DC (before leaving office and becoming a lobbyist and making it
official). Newsom's spokesperson confirms that Butler resides in Silver Spring, Maryland, and
is registered to vote in that state. We're just skipping the part where we pretend senators
represent states rather than political parties. [...] At this point, any Democrat who
doesn't treat skin color as at least partly determinative of a person's worth is going to be
in trouble. And it's not just moral preening over race. Butler, Newsom notes, will be
the first "lesbian Black woman to join Congress in US history." In most news pieces on the
appointment, we learn who Butler prefers to sleep with before we hear any of her accomplishments.
Newsom
to Appoint Laphonza Butler to Fill Feinstein's Senate Seat — She Lives In
Maryland. California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) will appoint Laphonza Butler to fill
Feinstein's vacant Senate seat. "California Gov. Gavin Newsom will appoint EMILY's List
President Laphonza Butler to fill the seat of the late Sen. Dianne Feinstein, elevating the
head of a fundraising juggernaut that works to elect Democratic women who support abortion rights,
according to a person familiar with the decision." Politico reported. Laphonza Butler lives
in Maryland and registered to vote there last year!
Supreme
Court Caves to Left on Racial Quotas. The Supreme Court sided on Tuesday with federal
interference in the Alabama legislature for the second time in four months, by ordering or allowing
the liberal judicial override of a redistricting plan. This misuse of the Voting Rights Act
obstructs a state legislature from exercising its constitutional authority to reformulate its
congressional districts based on population changes. Some 15 years after Americans elected a
black president, and long after black congressmen and senators have been elected by majority-white
constituents, the Supreme Court is still falling for the liberal lie that whites won't elect a
black representative. Liberals perpetuate this fiction to increase the number of
Democrat-controlled congressional districts, rather than to protect voting rights.
Indicted
Senator Bob Menendez to Announce Reelection Bid Monday. Sen. Bob Menendez
(D-N.J.), who was indicted days ago on federal bribery charges, is expected to announce on Monday
that he intends to seek reelection, according to a report from the New Jersey Globe. Menendez
has been defiant in the wake of the indictment, claiming that he's being targeted for being Latino.
"It is not lost on me how quickly some are rushing to judge a Latino and push him out of his seat,"
he said in a statement. "I am not going anywhere."
Kendi
Kar Krash. Ibram X. Kendi, ne Ibram Henry Rogers, is this generation's Jesse Jackson
and Al Sharpton on steroids: race hustling shakedowns perfected. His target has been
universities, which have been content to shower him with money, the most recent being Boston
University, which lured him and his Center for Antiracist Research away from American University
several years ago. Twitter founder Jack Dorsey gave Kendi a $10 million unrestricted
grant, among other foolish donors who shoveled money at Kendi, when they aren't paying him up to
$40,000 for a half-hour "antiracist training" seminar on Zoom. Someone noticed a few weeks
ago that Kendi hasn't had any academic publications for several years, and it appears his Center
for Antiracist Research hasn't produced any research, either: [...] And now the Center is laying
off 40 percent of its staff because its revenue has apparently dried up. And it is
not going down well with some of the laid-off staff, such as BU professor Phillipe Copeland, who
is among the terminated staff.
The
Fed's Bait and Switch: Race and the U.S. Census. A handy barometer for federal,
monetized aggression against the American people can be readily seen in the documents of the U.S.
Census, as it fails to justify its growing demands upon our privacy and insists on the priority of
'race' in every evaluation. The U.S. Census documents imply, by focus and repetition, that
racism is the crowning national proclivity — despite the same being, in real life,
sanctioned by a slim minority. Aren't most of us tired of being held ransom in 'black' vs.
'white' land? I know I am.
Biden
Administration Pushes "Indigenous Knowledge". The Biden administration has released a
"guidance" to federal agencies that calls on them to include "Indigenous Knowledge" in decision
making: [...] If you are looking for specific instances of "Indigenous Knowledge" that is somehow
different from anyone else's knowledge, and that have contributed to "scientific advancements," you
won't find them in the White House statement. [...] Most of the people involved in this boondoggle
are reliable supporters of the Democratic Party, and some are getting paid. Indigenous
Knowledge includes the understanding that being politically connected can generate rivers of cash,
especially in a Democratic administration.
Racism in
America Today. The woke accusation that "America is systemically racist" is manifest
nonsense. Wokeism is anti-white. We owe individual black citizens — as we
owe all citizens — fellowship and help when deserving. But to blacks as a group we
owe nothing, just as no group is owed anything, nor is any individual owed anything simply by being
part of a group. The woke Left only incidentally wants to give blacks a hand up; their main
goal is power. Outcome differences between blacks and others are not due to racism, but to
bad decisions on the part of black individuals. As I just said, racism in America today is,
to a very significant degree, a manufactured problem, crafted by woke leftists in order to
overthrow the American way of life. They claim there exists an intolerable, all-pervasive
system of white oppression.
The
Mind-Bendingly Insane, Completely Craven, Utterly Unconscionable Redemption of Al Sharpton.
This past weekend, the Jewish Council for Public Affairs, an umbrella group uniting 125 local Jewish
communities and 17 national Jewish organizations, sent an email to its followers proudly announcing
that it has signed on as a partner in the Virtual March on Washington this week, an event organized
by Al Sharpton. Because last week also marked the 29th anniversary of the Crown Heights riots,
it's worth it to stop and recall that among his many distinctions — MSNBC pundit, and an
adviser who reportedly regularly speaks to Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, collector of
innumerable sateen suits — Al Sharpton is also currently America's only living pogrom
leader. After a car driven by a Hasidic Jew accidentally swerved and struck a young African
American boy, killing him, hundreds of the neighborhood's Black residents rioted in the streets,
chanting "death to the Jews!" as well as looting stores, attacking anyone who was visibly Jewish,
and ripping mezuzot off of door posts. Sharpton was quick to arrive on the scene, leading a
march in which participants burned an Israeli flag and called to kill all Jews.
Buttigieg's
'Equity' Team Seeks to End 'Racist' Private Car Ownership: 'All Cars Are Bad'.
Democrat President Joe Biden's "woke" Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg has formed a team of
"equity experts" that seeks to end private car ownership. Buttigieg has been busy allocating
tax dollars to appoint a group of "leading experts" to advise him on "transportation equity."
Several members of Buttigieg's Marxist "equity" team argue that cars cause "climate change" and
"promote racism" and therefore should be phased out. The target is not just traditional
gas-powered vehicles, however, as the "experts" insist that "all cars are bad," including
EVs. Earlier this month, Buttigieg appointed 24 new members to his Advisory Committee on
Transportation Equity.
The Editor says...
If "all cars are bad," how do Washington bureaucrats get to work?
Oakland
D.A.: White victims "harm" her office. [Scroll down] That's the lesson
being taught in Oakland to the people charged with helping crime victims trying to navigate the
frustrating world of being a crime victim. It's the next step in the ideological movement
that classifies everybody except White people as victims. As we all have heard by now, if you
are White you are privileged, so quit whining about that assault you suffered.
'How
to Serve White Victims'. Oakland, Calif., is plagued by crime — and by a
district attorney, Pamela Price, determined to divide people by race. After "antiracist"
consultant Karen Fleshman finished a training in Oakland, Calif., she took to Facebook to express
pride in her work: "Great afternoon training Alameda County District Attorney Pamela Price's Victim
Services team in 'How to Serve White Victims.' Madam DA Pamela Price is my shero [sic] and
mentor. She is a lifelong warrior for justice with compassion." A few days later,
Ms. Price thanked Ms. Fleshman for her "wisdom and support." But when I started asking
questions about the June 26 training, suddenly trainer and trainee didn't want to talk about it.
Liberals
Accuse Cornel West, a Black Man, of 'Stealing Votes' From Biden. [Scroll down]
Now, on cue, the corporate state media is framing Cornel West as an illegitimate spoiler candidate
getting in the way of the Brandon entity's re-coronation as lord of the plantation — even
going so far as to accuse him of "stealing" votes, particularly black votes, that are rightfully the
property of the Democrat Party. On his show "Morning Joe," host Joe Scarborough — a
nominal Republican, mind you — prompts his guest, John Della Volpe: "How devastating
is it if Cornel takes 2, 3, 4% from Joe Biden in 2024?" Della Volpe nods and receives the question
with the appropriate constipated, concerned look at the prospect. "Joe, I think that if he takes
that 2 [to] 3%, it's going to be from the constituency that we just talked about," Della Volpe responds.
The constituency he references is black Democrat voters.
California
Democrats Play Affirmative Action Games Over Feinstein Senate Seat. Race-based
preferences are taking over the competition for Dianne Feinstein's California Senate seat. On
Thursday, The New York Times revealed Feinstein surrendered power of attorney to her daughter in a
report on the 90-year-old senator's failing health. The longtime legacy lawmaker is unable to
make legal decisions of her own while making major legal decisions for the country. [...] If she
resigns, Gov. Gavin Newsom has already pledged to appoint a black woman to the seat.
Newsom made the commitment in 2021 after upsetting Democrats by appointing then-Secretary of State
Alex Padilla, California's first Latino senator, to replace Kamala Harris after her election to
vice president. It's no coincidence, then, the most vocal supporters of Feinstein's
resignation, such as California Rep. Ro Khanna, have endorsed Rep. Barbara Lee in the
crowded Senate primary. In fact, Khanna, who co-chairs Lee's campaign, was the first member
of Congress to request Feinstein step down, according to The Hill.
A
brief, sad history of bias in the news. [Scroll down] An interesting
example is the death of George Floyd. This event spawned a flurry of violent criminality
across the nation, but the particular details of Mr. Floyd's apparent intoxication were
largely ignored by the media and the political activists. Suffice it to say that he may well
have died while sitting on his sofa from all of the drugs he put in his system without the police
ever having to arrive. A precursor to this event happened in Los Angeles several years
before, when a VHS video just happened to be made of several police beating Rodney King with their
batons. Such "brutality" led to a riot in which there were several fatalities.
Mr. King survived and famously tried to calm things down by famously asking, "Can't we all
just get along?" He, too, was high on drugs and resisted arrest. Unmentioned in much of
the coverage was that the video showed several taser wires coming off his chest. When tasing
didn't work, the police had no choice but to resort to more physical means to bring him into
custody. The city paid Mr. King handsomely for his discomfort. He then bought a
house and soon drowned in his swimming pool.
New
York plans to give $200 million to cannabis entrepreneurs of color. In an ambitious
move to make its new marijuana industry equitable, New York is proposing a $200 million fund to
help entrepreneurs of color and some other groups get into the business. But officials
haven't yet nailed down some components that experts say are crucial to making the investment
effective. Gov. Kathy Hochul's proposal, unveiled last month, would be among the largest
sums any state has committed to try to ensure diversity and social equity in the fast-growing legal
pot business. The plan also is somewhat unusual for relying on money from private sources.
The Editor says...
Nobody has been forced into the retail marijuana market. It's bad enough that marijuana is legal
in some areas, but there's no need to subsidize drug dealers just because they're black.
Is
D.E.I. Going to D-I-E? Since the Floyd riots of 2020, the Left has promoted
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs as must-have credentials for woke corporations
eager to show concern for "marginalized" minorities. DEI is marketed as a way to address
racial discrimination in the corporate world with affirmative-action hiring practices. The
programs also include LGBTQ+ identifiers, feminists, and any others claiming victimhood.
Thus, DEI has been all the rage for the last few years as major companies scrambled to hire DEI
officers for their workforce and boards of directors. The rage is now over. DEI is
still around, but it has lost its luster. When liberal programs lose their luster, it usually
means it's time to move on to the next great acronym.
The
Left Again Beclowns Itself Over White Supremacy. [Scroll down] The MSNBC
editorial claims, "Physical fitness has always been central to the far right." Tell that to the
70 percent or so NFL and NBA players, superb athletes who also happen to be black, not far right
politically and would not be playing professional sports if they avoided physical fitness. [...]
The editorial also worries, "The realm of online fitness now provides a new and ever-expanding
market for reaching and radicalizing young men." Tell that to on-line fitness giant Les Mills,
featuring people of color as instructors and clients. Their only goal to radicalize clients
into getting in shape. I have taken several of their workout classes and never recall their
instructors attempting to convert the class into little Nazis. Another popular fitness class,
Tae Bo, founded by a black man Billy Blanks, must be a hotbed of neo-Nazi indoctrination according
to MSNBC. Michelle Obama must also be a white supremacist due to her fitness initiative "Let's
Move," attempting to reduce obesity through diet, exercise, and fitness. Another fitness
program, a spin-off of P90X called Insanity, is led by "super trainer Shaun T," an extremely fit
black athlete.
'People
of Color' and '2SLGBITQIA+': Using Language to Enforce Subordination. Recently,
Arizona Republican Eli Crane was rebuked for referring to "people of color" as "colored people."
That's a controversy which would, at any other time in the history of the English language, be
incomprehensible to a sensible reader. After all, there's no practical difference in the
phrases. In fact, the choice to give preference to the phrase "people of color" is worse than
practically useless to an English speaker — it's needlessly more burdensome to both the
talker and the listener. [...] But the point for the leftist language police isn't about efficiency
in communication. It's about power. You will amend your language and speech patterns in
uncomfortable and nonsensical ways in order to conform to a peculiar social order, or you will be
socially pilloried for your refusal to do so by submitting to stupid new language rules that apply
only to you. In Eli Crane's case, it was clearly a slip of the tongue. But that doesn't
matter. If Crane were a black man, he likely could have spoken the n-word without
objection. But, since he is a not, different rules apply to him.
The
Democrats Want America To Be More Like South Africa. That's A Terrible Idea. On
Sunday, the White House Press Secretary made clear she and her fellow Democrats want a very
different America than the rest of us. During an appearance on MSNBC, Karine Jean-Pierre was
asked by the host about how the White House will handle future debate regarding affirmative action
now that the Supreme Court has banned it in America's colleges and universities. She
responded with this: "We're going to say, 'this [decision] is wrong.' It is unprecedented...
taking away important constitutional rights that have been in place for a long time."
Good luck getting a free air conditioner if you don't live in a black neighborhood.
Biden
administration to buy air conditioning units in push for 'equity and environmental justice'.
The White House is touting its decision to buy air conditioners as a part of a plan to promote "equity
and environmental justice" during a historic heat wave that it attributes to climate change. A
Tuesday memo from the Biden administration said that heat wave included record-high daily high
temperatures in several areas of the country. The plan cited its $3.85 billion Low Income
Home Energy Assistance Program that it said helped lower cooling costs and will provide air conditioning
units for low-income households for over 6 million households. "The situation is alarming,
and it requires an all-of-society response to ensure that communities have the support they need to plan,
prepare, and recover from these extreme weather events, which are costing the U.S. billions of dollars
every year," the memo stated.
The Editor says...
Hot weather is not "alarming." You may not know this, but there once was a time when Dallas had a record high
temperature every day for a year. It wasn't because of global warming. It was the first year that daily
temperature records were kept. (Gotcha!) The lack of accurate temperature measurements was the issue,
not the weather. Similarly, there will be days when record high temperatures, and record lows, will be
observed. That's only because the temperature records only go back a little more than a century.
The
Left Is Losing Its Race War, That's Why It's Distorting The Definition Of 'Racism'.
An everlasting truism of the political left is that when they hold an indefensible position, they
pretend everything is more complicated than it actually is, and, therefore, it's your fault for
failing to understand the complexities of the world. So shut up and just let them do what
they need to do! [...] There is no truer example of that reality than the way they talk about
"racism." The Supreme Court just ruled that it's unconstitutional for institutions in higher
education to discriminate against an applicant based on his race. What has been congenially
known as "affirmative action" is, by definition, racial unfairness. Knowing full well that
defending the kind of discrimination America erased 50 years ago is untenable, the left has once
again attempted to take a very simple concept and distort it beyond recognition so that, hopefully,
everyone will be too confused to even argue about it.
Liberal
Supreme Court justice comes out in favor of segregation. Supreme Court Justice
Ketanji Brown Jackson is trying to put one over on America. In her dissent from the high
court's long-overdue ruling against racial preferences in college admissions, she cited an utterly
bogus statistic. "For high-risk Black newborns, having a Black physician more than doubles the
likelihood that the baby will live," she wrote in rationalizing Harvard's bigotry against Asian
American applicants. Yet that black infant mortality number is obvious bunk. If
it were true, it would mean thousands of black infants dying every year thanks to white
doctors' secret racism.
Karine
Jean-Pierre: Racial preferences are an 'important constitutional right'. Employing
the euphemism "affirmative action," President Biden's press secretary claimed that there is a
constitutional right to receive preferential treatment based on one's race. She was
discussing recent Supreme Court decisions on MSNBC with host Ari Melber, and made the extraordinary
claim without citing any language in the Constitution — because of course there isn't
any to support her and, contrarily, language in the 14th Amendment that prohibits it. The
bogus claim came a minute into a nearly 5½ minute, very friendly interview, and did not
elicit any pushback from the host, or even any audible reaction to the claim. KJP never
directly addressed his question about what the Biden administration planned to do, beyond
unspecified "executive action[.]" The remained of the friendly interview contained a number
of obviously planned buzzwords that were repeated, such as "unprecedented" to describe the Supreme
Court's recent decisions. Of course, the media will never ask where in the Constitution there
is a right to racial preferences or "affirmative action."
Justice
Jackson wants to increase the Black baby survival rate to 198% but what about the Black abortion
rate? The three libs were outvoted last week when the Supreme Court declared
Harvard's racial discrimination illegal. So, they did what liberals do when they
lose — they shouted, invented "facts," and implied that the majority were racist.
The facts they invented included the following. Justice Jackson recited as a "fact" that
Black pediatricians, as compared to white pediatricians, double the survival rate of black
babies. She implied that Black babies die more often when under the care of white
pediatricians because the white ones are racist. Therefore, her reasoning goes, we should
favor Blacks in college admissions — so that we can double the Black baby survival
rate. That would be a neat trick — to double the survival rate of Black
babies — and a pretty good reason to continue racially discriminating in favor of
Blacks, if only her "fact" were true. But it's not. The current Black baby survival
rate is over 99%, within a hair of the white baby survival rate. So, a doubling of the Black
baby survival rate would put it at over 198%. In other words, for every one Black baby born,
nearly two would survive.
Ben
& Jerry's [publishes] July 4 tweet demanding 'stolen' Native American land be returned to the
Lakota. Furious ice cream fans are promising to boycott the iconic Ben & Jerry's
brand, accusing the company of 'going woke' following a July 4th tweet in which it said that it was
'committed' to returning 'stolen' lands to indigenous peoples. The brand, which was founded
by longtime Bernie Sanders allies Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenwood but has since been sold to British
multinational Unilever, tweeted the message to its 494,000 followers. 'This 4th of July, it's
high time we recognize that the US exists on stolen Indigenous land and commit to returning it,'
the company's official account wrote before suggesting Mount Rushmore should be handed back to its
original owners.
RFK
Jr. denounces Supreme Court ruling striking down affirmative action. Democratic
presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. denounced the United States Supreme Court ruling
striking down affirmative action, prompting a wave of criticism from Americans. Kennedy said
in a Thursday [6/29/2023] tweet that he believes historically racist policies are now
"self-perpetuating" and need to be corrected with affirmative action, which uses quotas or special
preference in admitting or hiring racial and ethnic minority groups. [Tweet] "Affirmative
action... uses race-based policies to undo the effects of racist policies," wrote Kennedy.
"'Color-blind' admissions tend to favor those who are already in the circle of privilege. It
favors those who grew up in affluent, educated households. Wouldn't you like to invite in
those who have been left out in the cold?"
Justice
Jackson's emotional dissent relied on an objectively flawed study. The Supreme Court
has a very narrow lane: Does the Constitution control and, if so, how? If the American
people dislike the constitutional answer, there is an amendment process — one that,
significantly, gives them a loud voice. However, for the last 100 years, leftist Supreme
Court justices have been legislating from the bench, effectively amending the Constitution as they
go. Given the chance, Justice Jackson would have done the same, relying on a mixture of
emotion and lies, to turn the Constitution into a document of racial oppression. In 1857, the
Supreme Court's race-based decision in Dred Scott v. Sanford was one of the causes of
our bloody Civil War. In 1896, despite the people saying explicitly in the 14th Amendment
that race could not divide Americans, the Supreme Court's race-based decision in Plessy
v. Ferguson led to the horrors of Jim Crow. You'd think blacks would want to keep
race out of the Constitution but, like generations of Democrats before them, they are heartbroken
that the Constitution is a colorblind document.
Federal
court delivers major blow to Biden's radical equity agenda. In a lawsuit challenging
the Minority Business Development Agency (MBDA) — a new federal agency dedicated to
helping only certain preferred racial groups — a federal judge ruled that the Biden
administration cannot discriminate based on race. Judge Mark Pittman, a Trump-appointee based
in Fort Worth, Texas, delivered a remedial lesson in civics to the administration: "The
Constitution demands equal treatment under law." While such a statement should be obvious to
any American, this was quite a painful blow to the administration. On his first day in
office, President Biden declared a "whole of government" approach to racial equity, requiring all
his agencies to "affirmatively advance[e] equity." In practice, the equity agenda resulted in a
bevy of programs open to some races, but not others. Farmers, restaurant owners, homeowners,
small business owners and federal contractors all got billions in federal tax dollars, so long as
they belonged to certain racial groups. The MBDA is the cornerstone of this equity agenda.
Carpetbagger!
Dem

in the House of Representatives. She was born and grew up in New York City, and graduated
from the elite and expensive Choate Rosemary Hall prep school in Connecticut before going on the
School of Foreign Service at Georgetown and law school at American University. She says that
she and her family frequently visited St. Croix, where her parents are from, in her childhood,
and that apparently was good enough for the voters to choose her to represent them in Congress.
Biden
State Dept Demands $76 Million to Push Diversity and Inclusion, Citing 'National
Security'. The Biden State Department is requesting an additional $76 million
budget allocation from Congress to fund its initiatives related to diversity, equity, and
inclusion, describing the matter as a priority for national security. In her role as chief
officer for diversity and inclusion at the State Department, Gina Abercrombie-Winstanley testified
before Congress on Tuesday morning, arguing the funds would allow her to hire new employees,
monitor the racial and gender composition within the department and maintain records of employee
reports concerning discrimination, harassment, and bullying.
The Editor says...
That sounds like a lot of money to "monitor the racial and gender composition within the department." Is
the ethnic balance something that changes from one hour to the next? Does it really affect national security
if the racial and gender composition gets out of balance — i.e., too white?
America's
Headlong Rush Back to Slavery. The social justice of "woke" has expanded to include:
• climate justice,
• minority justice,
• sexual justice,
• gender justice (not the same as sexual justice),
• economic justice, and
• moral justice (i.e., moral relativism).
Woke ideology demands human behavior consistent with the demands of social justice across all elements of
society. It requires top-down control of all Americans — down to our very beliefs and
behaviors. That would indeed be "fundamental transformation." But "fundamentally transform"
America into what? America was founded as a self-governed country, based on individual rights and
respecting private property (capitalism). A fundamental change to that foundation would be centrally
governed, based on communal rights and public control of property.

'Reverend'
Al Sharpton Outdoes Himself in Disgraceful Display During Jordan Neely Funeral. They
say a leopard never changes its spots, and that was absolutely the case Thursday when race-hustling
MSNBC host and "Reverend" Al Sharpton brought his clown-show circus to town to preside over the
funeral of Jordan Neely. Neely, a 30-year-old homeless man with an extensive arrest record,
died on May 1st after being subdued by multiple passengers on a New York City subway for allegedly
behaving in an aggressive and threatening manner, saying he was hungry and didn't care if he got
arrested. 24-year-old Marine Daniel Penny, seen in the video clip putting Neely in what some
have called a "submission hold" or "headlock," has been charged by woke Manhattan District Attorney
Alvin Bragg with second-degree manslaughter over Neely's death, though some witnesses have
described Penny as a "hero." As per the norm, Sharpton, who is a failed Democratic
presidential candidate, made himself the center of the spotlight rather than Neely, lapping up the
attention he got from the press and onlookers shortly before the Harlem service started: [Tweet]
Biden
Stokes the Flames of Distrust. [Scroll down] Is racial harmony best
achieved through developing an understanding of one another or by encouraging hatred and
distrust? This brings me to Joe Biden's commencement speech at Howard University. He
told a predominantly black audience that "white supremacy" is the greatest threat faced by our
nation. I'm not going to analyze whether Joe has any substantiating evidence for that
statement — or if it was just a flat-out lie. I want to talk about the effect that
type of language has on the society he is charged to lead.
Biden
Calls 'White Supremacy' the 'Most Dangerous Terrorist Threat' in Speech at Black
College. Joe Biden is a born political panderer. It's how he won the Democratic
Party nomination, and it played a large role in his victory over Donald Trump. Telling people
what they want to hear is a political skill that most politicians possess. But there may
never have been a politician as adept and skilled as Joe Biden in pandering to voters based on
their race, their gender, their sexual identity, or any other aspect of their personhood that can
be sliced, diced, and pureed to create a message tailor-made for a particular Democratic
constituency. Biden gave the commencement address to the historically black college of Howard
University on Saturday and turned on the pander up to "10" in his bid to win over his audience.
Just
As Biden Tells Howard University White Supremacy Is The Biggest Threat To America, The Feds Play
Dressup As Patriot Front And Storm DC. Just hours after one of the biggest racists in
Senate history, Joe Biden told graduates at the historically black Howard University that "The most
dangerous terrorist threat to our country is white supremacy," the feds went into action and
created great visuals for the mainstream media to run with. Hundreds of white men with masks
over their faces carrying upside flags marched in DC. Many on social media pointed out that no
group who claim to be 'Patriots' would fly the flag upside down.
Something
wicked this way comes. [Scroll down] What are we looking at?
Whatever its long-term provenance going back decades, the movement we are dealing with now starts
with Obama. In the 2008 campaign, Obama said the objective of his administration would be to
"fundamentally transform" America. I, and I suspect a lot of others, thought this was just
political blather. Not hardly. But there is a problem with this objective. To
achieve it, you have to plow through the Constitution. Obama didn't plan to do that by
amendments but by stoking racial animosity. Something important happened with the death
(ruled to be murder) of George Floyd in Minneapolis in May 2020, for which police officer Derek
Chauvin has been convicted and sentenced to 22.5 years. (Given the plethora of relevant
details around the case, a different judgment is imaginable.) It effectively launched the
Defund the Police movement.
The
Counterattack of Reason. Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion are means of destroying
meritocracy and Republican majority state legislatures are finally responding. A number of
states are now demanding to know how much money is being spent on DEI programs. Once voters
realize how much money has been spent on this pernicious nonsense, it is likely to be
scrapped. In Wisconsin, the legislature flexed its muscles and demanded the state university
stop requiring DEI statements of job applicants. It's a start. Next, they should detail
for voters how much is spent for administrators and programs designed to propagate this.
Faced with ever-increasing tuition fees, a great deal of which is going not to teaching but to
administering DEI idiocy, the voters will rebel against it. In related news about the
backlash against the war on meritocracy, the ABA has retreated from eliminating the LSAT from
law-school admissions. It's likely that race and ethnic identification qualifiers for medical
school will soon be dealt with by a Supreme Court hostile to such policies.
Is
It Okay for Leftist Charities to Accept Donations from Black Nationalists? The
Democrat party likes to argue that Republicans are the party of white nationalism and white
supremacy. That's quite an argument from the party of Nathan Bedford Forrest (D-KKK),
Theodore Bilbo, Jefferson Davis, Woodrow Wilson, and Bull Connor against the party that came into
existence partially due to abolitionism. It's also quite an accusation from a party that
aligns openly with a racist and black nationalist hate group. In contrast to the left's
pigeon chess (knock over the pieces, call your opponent a racist, and say you have won), I can back
this up to the hilt with objective evidence, not from right-wing or Republican sources, but from
Black Lives Matter Global Network itself.
Liberals
sure like dead black men. [Scroll down] No, this column is about black men
killed by non-liberal white people or in the case of George Zimmerman, a Hispanic. AOC used
the death in a subway train of Jordan Neely to create a new saint for the church of black
victimhood. A violent man, he went crazy in a subway train last Thursday afternoon. The
transit police were unavailable. Passengers subdued him. He died after being held in
what we are told was a chokehold. AOC went on a tweet rant based on few facts and many
emotions. Judge, jury and executioner, she tweeted, "Jordan Neely was murdered. But
because Jordan was houseless and crying for food in a time when the city is raising rents and
stripping services to militarize itself while many in power demonize the poor, the murderer gets
protected with passive headlines and no charges. It's disgusting." Houseless has
replaced homeless which replaced bum.
In
a World Gone Mad, the Jordan Neelys Rule. Jordan Neely was a mentally ill homeless
man who had terrorized the citizens of New York — especially subway passengers —
for many years. He had been arrested at least 40 times for crimes ranging from assault to
disorderly conduct and fare evasion. And on the day of his death, several eyewitnesses report
that Neely had made repeated threats to the well-being of passengers, "stating his willingness to
'hurt anyone' and saying that he was unbothered by the prospect of returning to jail or being killed,"
according to NRO. [Tweet] Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez says Jordan Neely was
"murdered" because he "was houseless and crying for food in a time when the city is raising rents
and stripping services to militarize itself." So passengers and bystanders are just supposed
to allow Mr. Neely to terrorize and assault them with no thought of defending themselves?
You picked the wrong hobby horse to ride, AOC. [Tweet] AOC also didn't mention this
attack on the gay community. [Tweet]
You may also find this informative, in regard to Mr. Neely:

Denver
Councilwoman CdeBaca suggests tax on white-owned businesses. Denver City Councilwoman
Candi CdeBaca is suggesting a new tax on white-owned businesses to fund racial reparations to
minority-owned businesses. CdeBaca advocated for race-based taxation, which would almost
certainly prompt constitutional challenges, at a Thursday forum before the Greater Metro Denver
Ministerial Alliance. CdeBaca faces a June 6 runoff to represent District 9. Her
challenger, Darrel Watson, said he also supports racial reparations in the form of private business
investment in underserved communities.
The Editor says...
Please show me a map of the communities in Denver that are "underserved." What does that mean?
One might easily suspect that the residents of those communities are the recipients of multiple welfare

dollars to each Black resident in reparations as a way to make amends for slavery and subsequent
discrimination, dismissing the mammoth proposals from California's reparations task force as too
little. The demands were made at a highly explosive official meeting of the task force, which
was created by state legislation signed by Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom in 2020. The committee
was hearing comments from the public as it considers final recommendations to submit to the
California Legislature, which will then decide whether to implement the measures and send them to
Newsom's desk to be signed into law. An activist identified as Reverend Tony Pierce was one
of the most outspoken people at the gathering, making reference to the famous "40 acres and a mule"
promise to former slaves when he took the podium.
Race
Hustler Al Sharpton Says He Told Alvin Bragg To Prosecute Subway 'Vigilante'.
Longtime race hustler Al Sharpton said Thursday that he spoke to Manhattan district attorney Alvin
Bragg (D.) about prosecuting the people who restrained a homeless man who was threatening subway
passengers, causing the man's death. "I've talked to the DA's office," Sharpton told MSNBC host
Joy Reid. "They must investigate and prosecute to the full extent of the law." The
homeless man, Jordan Neely, on Monday started throwing garbage at subway passengers and making
threats, shouting, "I'll hurt anyone on this train." Multiple passengers restrained him, with one
putting him in a headlock, which caused Neely's death. Sharpton and other media personalities
falsely claimed that Neely, who has a long criminal history that includes kidnapping and assault,
was "impersonating Michael Jackson" before his death.
Al
Sharpton Is Trying To Shakedown McDonald's. Don't Believe Him For A Second.
Sharpton referred to "multiple accusations of racial discrimination" by McDonald's and warned that
NAN is poised to mobilize nationally against the company. "You cannot sell Black folks Big Macs and
give us little justice," he said. Mainstream media glorified this threat, calling Sharpton a
"social justice leader." Race hustler is more like it. Racial discrimination should be
punished to the full extent of the law. But Sharpton isn't a judge or juror. He uses
thuggery, not due process. Is McDonald's guilty of racial discrimination? That's for
courts to decide. McDonald's has been sued by black franchise owners alleging they were
mistreated compared with white owners. But a federal judge threw out one of those lawsuits
for lack of evidence in June 2021. Another was dismissed in October 2022. Sharpton also
claims outrage over "the removal of John Rogers, a well-respected business leader for the Black
community," from McDonald's corporate board. Truth is, Rogers served 20 years and is now
retiring. He left at the same time as a white director who also had served that long.
LOW
IQ Denver Councilwoman Thinks The Best Way To End Racism Is To Tax White People More.
Denver City Council member Candi CdeBaca, who is reportedly running for re-election, has suggested
that white-owned businesses should be taxed at a higher rate than black-owned businesses, and that
this revenue should then be given directly to black-owned businesses. Her apparent
justification for this is that white people have built what they have on "stolen land, stolen
labor, and stolen resources." [Video clip]
Democrats
Are The Nigerian Princes Of American Politics. For decades, Democrats told black
Americans that Democrats were their champions when even a modicum of research would reveal that it
was the Democrats who started a war to keep blacks in chains, fought the 13th, 14th, and15th
Amendments, started the KKK, wrote Jim Crow laws, and filibustered the Civil Rights Act. It
was the Democrats whose policies destroyed the nuclear black family and eviscerated cities like
Detroit, Chicago, and others that were once engines of black advancement. It was the
Democrats who called for defunding the police and for "equity" in the justice system, severing the
connection between actions and consequences and leaving the blood of thousands of black Americans
on streets across the country. And perhaps most treacherously of all, it was Democrats who
told blacks that America is a systemically racist nation where they had no chance for success,
sparking the worst racial tension in America in two generations. Proving their disdain for
black voters, they tell black Americans their lives are at risk because of racist whites when every
black person in America knows they have far more to fear from black males, and it's not even close.
Rappers'
violent lyrics can't be used against them in court under Democrats' new bill. House
Democrats are pushing a new bill that would make it illegal for prosecutors to use violent lyrics
by rap artists against them in court if they commit crimes, citing First Amendment protections.
On Thursday, Reps. Hank Johnson, D-Ga., and Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., announced they would reintroduce
the Restoring Artistic Protection Act, or RAP Act. The bill would protect artists from the use
of their lyrics against them in criminal and civil proceedings, a practice that's more common in cases
involving hip-hop artists. The pair introduced the bill last Congress, but it failed to gain any
traction. The measure, they say, would add a presumption to the Federal Rules of Evidence that
would limit the admissibility of evidence of an artist's creative or artistic expression against that
artist in court.
The
Ruling Class's Stalinist Purge. The ruling class — consisting of the
political Uniparty, the permanent Deep State, and the financial oligarchy pulling the Leviathan's
strings — wasted no time demonizing Trump's supporters as "Nazis" and "racists" and
"insurrectionists" who deserve to have their families ripped apart and lives burned to the
ground. It never mattered how absurd it was to defame patriotic Americans who seek limited
government and human equality regardless of skin color as somehow anti-American Big Government
types seeking to separate citizens by race. Reason and rationality are among the first
victims of any purge.
Hakeem
Jeffries Shows How Black Racism Is Baked Into The Cake. As one would expect, Hakeem
Jeffries, the first Black minority Speaker of the House, denied his history as a racist. Like
many blacks, he may believe he can't be a racist because blacks don't have the "power to effectuate
their prejudices," or when blacks slur whites, they aren't slurs because they're truisms to achieve
equity. Jeffries' position highlights why American anti-racism programs won't be successful
until they eliminate that mindset and, instead, encourage blacks to be honest about their
racism. Black economist Walter Williams said: "Racial discrimination and racism in our
country could have earned a well-deserved death, but it has been resurrected by race hustlers and
poverty pimps as I call them, such as Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton... who make a living on the
grievances of blacks." If Williams were still alive, he would have a longer list of well-known
race hustlers, like Hakeem and several other senior people in Washington.
Obama
Bad; Biden Worse. Let's face it, as America's First Black President, Barack Obama had
the opportunity of the ages to put racial animosity to bed, and start a new age of comity.
But he didn't. [...] Why didn't Obama bury the hatchet? It's simple. Ever since Marx,
our educated rulers have practiced an over/under political formula, where the ruling educated class
rules as the Ally of the Oppressed in a war against the enemy oppressors. If the working
class are no longer the oppressed du jour, then blacks must be defended against racists,
women against sexists, gays against homophobes, and now transgenders against the mighty armies of
J.K. Rowling. Otherwise, what's the point of politics for Barack?
Biden
Is Even Worse than Obama. Obama's greatest demerit was his manifest failure to foster
greater social peace on race relations. Rather than using his status as the first black
president to encourage a moral renewal in the black community, he instead flattered its worst
members — racial rabble rousers like Al Sharpton and Ben Crump — as well as
the black criminal underclass more generally. Weighing in on the Trayvon Martin and Michael
Brown shootings, he showed complete indifference to legitimate fears about crime in black
neighborhoods and instead encouraged distrust of and hostility to police and to white people.
He never hesitated to criticize white Americans in general, nor our country's glorious and heroic
history. In the end, he was a racial arsonist, and race relations were noticeably worse at
the end of his term than they were at the beginning of it.
Kamala
Harris Heaps Praise On Al Sharpton: 'Conscience Of Our Country'. Vice President
Kamala Harris praised Al Sharpton, who has been criticized for alleged antisemitism for decades, as
"part of the conscience" of the United States during a speech Friday. "I thank you on behalf
of all of us, everyone, for all that you do, and all that you are," Harris said during remarks at
the National Action Network convention. "And as I have said in public and in private many
times, Rev, no matter where you are, you are always a voice of truth, speaking about the importance
of justice for all people, you are part of the conscience of our country, and I thank you for all
that you do."
Why
isn't it racism when the media and other Democrats seek to destroy conservatives who happen to be
people of color? Every day, the media and other Democrats seek to brand Republicans
as racists if they dare disagree with Democrats' radical leftist ideology and policies.
Democrats who engage in lawless acts and who happen to be people of color, are treated as
heros. That includes two legislators who participated in a riot, protest or insurrection in
Tennessee with the aim of disrupting legislative hearings and then got themselves expelled from
that body as a result. They were invited to the White House and they were feted. That
stands in stark contrast to the failure of Joe Biden to visit the Christian families of Nashville
who were just killed recently by a transgender mass shooter. But Biden being Biden, he
invited the two disruptive legislators to D.C. for the purpose of playing the race card.
Racism,
Inc.. Hopefully, more and more Americans are becoming aware that modern liberalism is
moving increasingly away from any semblance of normalized, rational thought and behavior. The
Left's whole mindset has become radicalized. One of the Democratic Party's main coalitions,
of course, is based on "race" and "racism," and thus their followers are being trained to think in
those terms and see almost everything through a "racial" lens. It is ludicrous in the
extreme, but is an unwavering staple of modern Leftist thought. It isn't really "thought,"
it's brainwashing, a blind acceptance of propaganda with no real evidence to support it.
Kamala
Harris looks very animated as she visits Tennessee to support two black Democrat lawmakers expelled
from legislature. An animated and passionate Kamala Harris made a last-minute trip to
Nashville on Friday, where she condemned Republicans for their 'cowardice' in refusing to allow
debate over gun control, and urged young people to rise up for what they believe in. Harris
traveled to the Tennessee capital after two black Democratic state representatives were expelled on
Thursday for staging a protest inside the House, demanding more gun control. A white female
Democrat lawmaker who joined in the protest kept her job, sparking racism allegations.
Chicago
mayor-elect Brandon Johnson rebukes 'large corporations' for poverty, violence in the
city. Liberal Chicago Mayor-elect Brandon Johnson put the blame on violence and
poverty in the Windy City on big corporations. "We have large corporations. Seventy
percent of large corporations in the city of Chicago — in the state of Illinois, did not
pay a corporate tax," Johnson said during a Thursday appearance on CBS Mornings. He argued
that low investment in Chicago has led to poverty, which in turn caused violence. "And it's
that type of restraint on our budget that has caused the type of disinvestment that has led to
poverty, of course that has led to violence."
The Editor says...
You just walk around Chicago for a few minutes and see what happens. From what I've been reading,
the whole city is "the bad part of town." When you get jumped, please note that you weren't beaten
and robbed by a "large corporation." The description of the suspects is almost always the same,
but I'll leave that as an exercise
for
the
reader.
What
has Chicago done? Chicagoans cheered Mayor Lightfoot's exit. Gone was her toxic
attitude. Her flippant dismissal of the city's many crises. Her dismal record on
crime. And her destruction of police morale. She was an absolute failure by any
measure. From the beginning, she was more interested in imposing a progressive vision and an
"equity" agenda on Chicago than enacting the many reforms the city needed. So Chicagoans
kicked out Lightfoot. Change was possible.
Eight
Startling and Uncomfortable Ways the Democrat Party Emulates the Nazi Party. First,
racial and ethnic division was a central component of Nazi political strategy and philosophy.
The Nazi Party was the most racially obsessed political party in human history. Today's
Democrat party is second only to the Nazi Party in their racial obsession. Every piece of
legislation, every accusation against their opponents, every aspect of American society, even
weather and climate are framed in imaginary racism. The Nazi Party's obsession focused on
their perverted belief in the inferiority and superiority of the races or ethnicities. This
opened the door for blaming a specific ethnic group for all the problems facing their
country. The Democrat party is claiming the root cause of virtually all problems facing this
nation is "systemic racism" as theoretically instigated by one particular race.
The
Communist Tortoise and the Communist Hare. At present, the left has successfully
captured nearly every major institution of society. Instead of sending political dissidents
to Gulags or re-education camps, they instead send themselves and the champions of the cultural
revolution to, say, Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity training seminars, where they engage in
Maoist-style "struggle sessions" between and among the various races of employees. They have
all the employees "of color" air their grievances against the white employees, or all the white
employees "admit" their "racist" attitudes or beliefs to the "people of color," all of whom they
are trying to indoctrinate as "oppressed" and "oppressor." According to critical race theorists,
who view all human interactions and structures of society through a lens of power dynamics and
systems of oppression (just as Karl Marx did, except through the lens of class and economics),
white people "dominate" society and the institutions of it, and have "cultural hegemony," which
results in the various "people of color" being "oppressed" by them.
Why not 30? Why not 40? Why not just say, "everyone who is black and under 25 is exempt?"
Maryland
Democrat proposes law barring everyone under 25 from felony murder charges. A
Democratic delegate proposed a law in Maryland that would bar anyone under 25 years of age from
being charged with felony murder. Delegate Charlotte Crutchfield, a Democrat, made the
proposition through the Youth Accountability and Safety Act, House Bill 1180, local news outlet
WBFF reported. A defendant in Maryland can be charged with felony murder if the person
commits a murder during a felony crime, such as robbery. Crutchfield and supporters of the
bill say that the brain is not fully developed before age 25, so issuing so harsh a sentence is unfair.
The Editor says...
If your "brain is not fully developed," you should not vote.
City's
inaugural Black expo leaves Minneapolis small business owners with losses. Small
business owners in Minneapolis say a million dollar city-run event meant to uplift Black-owned
businesses ended up leaving them with losses. [...] The fallout comes after Councilmembers kicked
in an extra roughly half a million dollars following a last minute request from Green a week before
the event that several vendors said fell far below expectations. [...] "At one point they said they
were expecting 20,000 people. That definitely did not happen. As a vendor, I likely
didn't see over 100 people, and I would be very surprised if they said it was over 200 or 250,"
Smith said. "It was a complete disappointment." When asked to quantify her losses, Smith
said, "Oh, well over $2,000." Vendors paid for parking and for food at the Convention Center
over the course of a more than 12-hour event, Smith added.
The Editor says...
Maybe it flopped because it was an overtly racist event.
Life Among the Ruins.
Polls show race relations have hit historic lows. Much of the ecumenicalism of the post-Civil
Rights movement seems squandered — almost deliberately so. The Left now rarely
mentions Martin Luther King, Jr. or even the historic Civil Rights Act of 1964. Perhaps it
knows it has violated the spirit and legacy of both. Today, our identity politics leaders
believe that the color of our skin, not the content of our character, certainly matters more.
The practitioners of the new tribalism in some sense fear outlawing segregation and discrimination
by race. They know to do so would end racially restricted houses and safe spaces, racially
exclusive graduations, and race-based admissions, hiring, and promotion on campus. Read
Professor Ibram X. Kendi and his message is implicit. For him, the problem with a Jim
Crow-like system was not segregation or racial chauvinism per se, but merely who was
doing the victimizing and who were the victims: so the original racism was bad; but racism in
reverse is good.
Is
The Left Harnessing Fake Antisemitic Attacks To Silence Americans' Speech? "Speech,
expression and assembly" represent the triumvirate for truth. Short of breaking existing laws
around physical violence and incitement to physical violence, the more we have of all three, the
closer we come to that more perfect union, offering the most freedom for the most people with the
least government interference. But in an age of internet technology with deep fakes, bots,
hacks, and myriad pathways to craft and deliver mis- and dis-information, radical left-wingers can
abuse and use those liberties to tarnish conservatives, desensitize our communities to certain
phenomena, and squelch our freedoms. It behooves individuals, our government, and even
watchdog organizations to pause before reacting to information from somewhere on the internet.
Equality:
the Lefty Fantasy. For years now, I have been "primed" to think about equality.
That's because a lefty homeowner on my morning walk exhibits a hand-painted BLM yard sign for all
the world to see that reads "Equality Never Hurt Anyone." The sign is decorated with a BLM
clenched-fist logo, just to remind you that you are never going to get hurt. Indeed, ever
since Rousseau and his "Discourse on Inequality" and the invention of coffee shops, conformist
young men that imagine themselves to be rebels have believed passionately in equality.
Biden's
Offensive Pandering, Lying, and Confusion in Selma. Joe Biden was in Selma, Alabama
on Sunday to commemorate "Bloody Sunday." Biden was there to commemorate the 58th anniversary
of "Bloody Sunday," when police beat peaceful protesters marching for voting rights. But if
you read media descriptions, like this from the New York Times, you would think we were barely away
from those times. [Tweet] [...] That's truly shameless. Exactly who is being denied the
vote? And it's Democrats who have lied and been divisive under Joe Biden acting as though
somehow Republicans are denying people the right to vote, which is all about trying to manipulate
the voters. Joe Biden was at that again during his remarks in Selma. First, he of
course had to lie again about his involvement in the civil rights movement to pander to his
audience. [Tweet]
Biden
Lies Again: 'I Was A Student Up North In the Civil Rights Movement'. Old Joe Biden
swung by Selma, Ala., on Sunday to commemorate the 58th anniversary of "Bloody Sunday," the March 7,
1965, civil rights march in Selma that state troopers attacked with tear gas and clubs, leading to
serious injuries to seventeen marchers. As is his longstanding habit, Biden seized the
opportunity to embroider on his life story in order to demonstrate that he was not only on the side
of the good guys, but had been all along. "I was a student up north in the civil rights
movement," Biden informed his audience in Selma. "I remember feeling how guilty I was I wudden
here. How could we all be up there? And you goin' through what you were goin' through,
lookin' at those — I can still picture..." Here the available video mercifully
ends, but Joe had made his point: he has been a civil rights campaigner for longer than most of you
folks have been alive, see? There's just one catch: he hasn't. [Tweet]
The Death
of Expertise. The "experts" told us that the Duke lacrosse team raped a young black
woman; that pleading, "Hands up, don't shoot," gets black men killed; that the Fort Hood Islamic
terror attack was workplace violence; that the Pulse nightclub Islamic terror attack was anti-gay
violence; that Covington Catholic High School students harassed a Native American elder; that MAGA
thugs assaulted Jussie Smollett for being black and gay; that vigilante racists bullied Bubba
Wallace with a planted noose; that Kyle Rittenhouse's defense of his life constituted murder; that
Border Patrol agents whipped Haitians for illegally entering the country; that "black lives matter"
but "all lives" don't; that being woke is good but that calling the woke "woke" is
racist. The "experts" were wrong, but they held the most fashionable opinions.
Biden
Hosts Black-only Staff Event for Black History Month. President Joe Biden and Vice
President Kamala Harris hosted a special event for black federal employees in observance of Black
History Month, according to a tweet by the White House posted on Sunday. [Tweet] It is
unclear why members of other racial groups were not invited to an event observing Black History
Month, a national event, or why they were not given the same chance for face time with the
president and vice president.
The Editor says...
Fake news alert! I don't think it is at all "unclear why members of other racial groups were not invited."
In fact, it's obvious. Blacks are the most rabid segregationists
in America today, and Joe Biden (or whoever makes his decisions) is pandering to them.
'Equity'
Is Not Equality — It's Revenge. This strain of stubborn hatred is the same
stuff that kept blood feuds hot between the Hatfields and the McCoys for nearly three
decades. It blinded the Hutus of Rwanda into butchering 800,000 innocent Tutsis in 1994.
It's why Arab hatred of Israel seethes as fresh today as it did in the 1940s. And it's the
same combustible stuff that Democrats, activists, and global technocrats use to drench the public
discourse with an old history that inflames black anger toward whites. "Innocent men, women
and children hung by a noose from trees," said Joe Biden last week at a White House screening of a
new film about Emmett Till. "... bodies burned, drowned, castrated, lynched for simply being
black — nothing more. With white crowds, white families gathered to celebrate the
spectacle, taking pictures of the bodies and mailing them as postcards. Hard to believe
that's what was done. There's some people still want to do that." Still? Who,
Joe? Not a single soul, of course. "Some people" are ghosts. There's so little
white racism today that Biden and his ilk are reduced to jerry-rigging tragic history to grossly
distorted current events to create menacing white racist devils that do not exist: "white
privilege," "systemic racism," and "white supremacy." It's so infuriating because "some
people still want to do that" is a hideous lie that digs into long-healed racial wounds. A
new generation of Americans is being drenched with this stuff, for no good reason, in the name of
achieving racial "equity."
Systemic
Racism in East Palestine. Two years ago, Transportation Secretary Buttigieg announced
that he was making the fight against "systemic racism" into the core of his job. The failed
South Bend mayor came out of the gate claiming that highways were racist. Last year, he went
to Birmingham to announce the launch of a $1 billion plan to tear down racist highways and
implement transportation equity. Taxpayer money would be directed to "economically
disadvantaged communities, especially those with projects that are focused on equity and
environmental justice." East Palestine was not one of them. On Feb 3, a train
filled with hazardous materials derailed in East Palestine. That same day, an interview with
Buttigieg about "infrastructure, safety and equity" appeared in Forbes Magazine.
Buttigieg did not mention the disaster in East Palestine, instead he talked about how "communities
of color" were being "destroyed" by infrastructure investment and how under Biden, they'd have the
opportunity to "reconnect across highways or railways that divide them."
Tennessee
county approves $5M study on slavery reparations following death of Tyre Nichols. The
woke Board of Commissioners for Shelby County in Tennessee, which also includes Memphis, voted to
approve $5 million to launch a feasibility study to examine reparations for the descendants of
slaves as a number of members cited the death of Tyre Nichols as a reason for it. The
feasibility study aims to determine whether the county should "establish, develop, and implement
reparations." The commission has 13 members. The eight black members all voted in favor
of the study. The five white members all voted against it or abstained, according to the
Daily Mail. The study is the latest in a string of reparation initiatives being pushed across
the country. It follows the killing of a black man named Tyre Nichols by five black police
officers in Memphis in January. Unbelievably, the commissioners in favor of reparations cited
Nichols' death as part of their reasoning for the study.
Biden
Administration's New Equity Atlas: An Unconstitutional Equity Redistribution Scheme. The Biden
administration's $1.2 trillion American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) gives cities a blank check for hundreds of billions
of dollars in federal grants. An astonishingly massive windfall for municipal budgets. Janet Yellen, U.S.
Treasury Secretary, followed up by forming an Advisory Committee on Racial Equity (a.k.a. TACRE) to ensure cities
channel those funds and future federal grants towards racial equity justice. The Committee's mission is to
"identify, monitor, and review aspects of the domestic economy that have directly and indirectly resulted in unfavorable
conditions...for persons of color." The ulterior motive is to produce a permanent mechanism that is a data-driven
approach forcing racial equity justice outcomes. Leftists refer to the concept as "democratizing data," a contrary
term that is an affirmative action contrivance.
Biden's
Wonderful World of 'Equity'. Immediately after his inauguration on January 20, 2021 Joe Biden, signed
an executive order placed in front of him directing the federal government to "...pursue a comprehensive approach to
advancing equity for all." On February 16, 2023, he signed a follow-up executive order mandating that all
federal agencies create teams and annual plans to insure equity within all government agencies and to utilize government
programs to compel equity within the private sector. The use of the word "equity" is a deliberate attempt to
hoodwink the American public, who are fully are on board with a similar-sounding word "equality." Equity, unlike
equality, isn't equal access to opportunity or equal protection before the law. Equity, per the American Marxists,
is the redistribution of societal status, legal protection, and economic goods (i.e., jobs and material possessions) in
accordance with their politized assessment of disadvantages and demographics. Equity, in the Marxist context,
requires a clearly defined villainous group, and not coincidentally a political adversary, in order to manipulate the
masses into believing that they have the best interests of the people at heart. But first the population has to be
segmented or tribalized and then indoctrinated into believing they as distinct groups have been and continue to be
victimized and, thus, deserving of equal outcomes as merit or ability is immaterial.
The
Toxic Racialist Obsessions of Joe Biden. Joe Biden ran on "unity," which is critical in a multiracial
America. He vowed to heal the divisions supposedly sown by Donald Trump. Instead, he is proving to be the
most polarizing president in modern memory. Often his racialist rhetoric and condescension have proven demeaning
to both blacks and whites. In a volatile multiracial democracy that demands tolerance and restraint, a highly
unpopular Biden, for cheap political advantage, continually proves incendiary and reckless.
The
Dead End of Reparations. [Scroll down] Americans do not learn about the history of law and the
state and justice in public school, nor in college. If you want to educate yourself so you can write what I have
written here, you have to read the books and ignore the union teachers and the woke professors and tread where cupcakes
fear to tread, outside the Overton Window. But why, you ask? Why, a century and a half after the abolition
of slavery, and fifty years after the abolition of racial discrimination, why is the New York Times poisoning us with a
reactionary movement for "reparations?" What is the point? The point is that under the present regime of the
Anointed, there comes a time when the Mascots fall away from a blind devotion to their masters. It happened with
the working class, left by their Anointed rulers to die of despair; it is presently happening with TERF women who really
don't like men in the women's bathroom. One fine day, the descendants of the African slaves may tumble to the
truth that, to the exalted Anointed, they are just the Benighted in blackface. Meanwhile, our Anointed ruling
class is doing its level best — which admittedly is not that good — to keep its black Mascots all
riled up and voting 90 percent for Democrats.
Eating
Their Own in the Golden State. History shows that leftists always end up eating their own, as they
continually jockey for the top rung on their political ladder. This week's target is the odious Congressman Adam
Schiff. He has been a congressman for 22 years and this year has decided to run for the seat being vacated by
Senator Dianne Feinstein, whose staff, apparently without her prior knowledge, has announced she will not run again in
2024. He is a consummate liar and misused his perch as the ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee to
spread disinformation which could not until recently be proven falsehoods, hiding them under a cloak of secret
intelligence information, claiming Donald Trump had colluded with the Russians to win the 2016 election. He was
Nancy Pelosi's pick to head the Ukraine impeachment charge against Trump, which failed. You'd imagine in blue
state California, he'd be a shoo-in. Unfortunately for Schiff, in the days of DEI, he apparently is the wrong
color and sex.
America's Black Male Problem.
Since May 25, 2020, America has crucified itself over a single statistic: Blacks are two to three times more
likely to die at the hands of the police than are whites, making up 25 to 35 percent of police killings.
In contrast, other data points that could add nuance to the conversation are considered by the prestige press to be
extremely inappropriate to mention. For example, the most careful estimate yet of what percentage of murders in
America blacks committed in 2021 comes up with a best guess of 64 percent of all cases, cleared and
uncleared. This suggests that blacks are recently an order of magnitude more homicidal than the entire rest of the
population (including Hispanics). This is an astonishing ratio.
VILE:
Biden Tells Blacks That White Americans Want to Lynch Them in Racially Charged Rant. President Joe Biden
is fanning the flames of racial division and hatred, telling an audience that white people want to lynch black
Americans. Biden's comments came during a White House screening of "Till", a movie about the 1955 lynching of
Emmitt Till and the subsequent fight for justice. [Video clip]
Really? Does this include reverse discrimination and "affirmative action?" Of course not.
Biden
Signs Executive Order to Root Out Systemic Racism from Federal Government. President Joe Biden signed an
executive order Thursday aimed at rooting out systemic racism from the federal government and doing more to achieve
racial equity. The order, made in the middle of Black History month, extends an order Biden made on his first day
in office requiring federal agencies to investigate inequities within their departments and to proactively address
shortcomings. That is now an annual requirement. The aim is to deliver "equitable outcomes" for all
Americans, including underserved communities, through government policies, programs, and services. The order also
requires federal agencies to establish "equity teams," with a designated senior leader charged with implementing the
administration's equity goals and "delivering equitable outcomes, to the extent consistent with applicable law." And it
requires the establishment of a new White House steering committee on equity to "coordinate Government-wide efforts to
advance equity."
Liberal racism.
There is a myth that the political home of racism is predominately on the political right. There certainly are
politically conservative racists, but racism as a politically relevant variable exists mainly on the Left. And by
this, I am not referring to the omnipresent anti-White bias. I am referring to the open use of racially
disparaging language and expressions of attitudes aimed at minorities, particularly Blacks. Anti-racism is
annoying, even harmful. It certainly is divisive. But racism directed specifically at minorities has become
a staple of Left-wing politics, whenever a member of a racial minority strays from the Democrat Party. Liberals
will deny this, pointing to their constant advocacy for policies of "Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion." They
invest heavily in projecting an image of fighting for the little guy, of caring deeply for Black and Indigenous people
(BIPOC). They constantly attack conservatives as racists, White supremacists, and as bigots against "marginalized
groups." It's all show. There is no group of people more likely to drop the "N" word than
liberals. There is no group more likely to attack a Black person for their deviationist political or economic
views than liberals. Plenty of conservatives may feel uncomfortable around people of different races (actually,
people of any race probably feel uncomfortable if they are the only member of their race in a crowd), but open disdain
for people based on race is so rare as to be shocking. I literally have never experienced a situation where a
person I know has casually dropped a racial slur. I am sure it happens, because of course it does, but it is not
an occurrence experienced in common life. Conversely, attacking minorities using racial slurs is common in Leftist
circles, and can be found all the time. Liberals will utter racial slurs on TV if the slur is hurled at a Black
Republican. Liberals on Twitter are constantly attacking minorities who are Republican with some of the nastiest
slurs imaginable, and few people bat an eye.
Conservatives
must wake up to the threat of government-endorsed racial categorization. Conservatives haven't been as
interested as progressives are in capturing the federal bureaucracy, or at least have been much less successful.
That goes double for the Census Bureau, whose committee on race has long been the play-thing of sociology professors
and affinity groups. For this reason, rank-and-file conservatives may not grasp the importance of the racial
changes the Census Bureau is currently proposing. That would be a mistake. The Left really cares about the
Census, which means conservatives should pay attention. The balkanization of the United States, often along
government-fabricated racial and ethnic lines, is one of the building blocks of the cultural Marxist threats in this
country. The Census Bureau's new proposal expands and deepens this racial dispensation.
The real coup
d'etat. The Democrat party was the voice of the middle class, the minorities, the marginalized, helping
them realize the promise of the system. That is no longer the position of the left. [...] It is following a
two-tiered approach to realizing its current goal, which is system control. Step #1: Recruitment. Amass
a permanent electoral majority. Employing identity politics and the immutable traits of race and sex are its basic
tools. Divide the populace into oppressors and oppressed. The oppressors are essentially adult, hetero,
white males. Everyone else — females, the youth, other races, gender variants — are oppressed, victimized by
patriarchal white supremacy. Debase America as racist and imperialistic. Delete its history. Degrade
religion as intolerant and science denying. Provide amnesty and benefits for "asylum seeking" illegals.
Saturate the electorate with your message via media, academia, and corporate HR sycophants. Identify contrary
thought as disinformation and cancel it. In short, create a culture of victimization, chaos, and disconnect which
must turn to the government's Democrat party for guidance and safety.
Two
different ways to counter the left's ugly racial obsessions. Since 1828, Democrats have seen race as their
path to power and wealth. They started with slavery and then went to Jim Crow, the spoils from the Civil Rights
Movement, and the political cudgel of Critical Race Theory. Democrats never see a whole human being; they just see
color. Most recently, Disney's execrable The Proud Family introduced children to reparations, "systemic" racism,
White supremacy, and White privilege. [...] It's all there: America was built on slavery (it wasn't), Lincoln didn't
free the slaves, Blacks are owed reparations, White supremacy controls America, race hatred, race hatred, and race
hatred. In another segment, we also get White privilege and police hatred (along with a dollop of gay rights
because the Black man is speaking to his White partner): [Video clip] Children are malleable and
impressionable. If a hip Disney cartoon says this, it must be true.
Disney+
cartoon features 'Slaves Built This Country' song. Disney's "Proud Family" cartoon series featured kids
singing a song about reparations that America "owes" to Black Americans and how slaves "built" the U.S. The "Proud
Family" is an American cartoon series that originally ran from September 2001 to August 2005. Since then, the show was
revived and is now titled "The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder", which was released in 2022. In the show's recent
episode, "Juneteenth", which aired on Feb. 1, 2023, kids discover that their town's founder was a slave
owner. The song in the episode opens with the line, "This country was built on slavery which means slaves built
this country." This line was repeated continuously throughout the show.
DNC
Approves Obama, Clyburn Plan for South Carolina to Lead 2024 Democrat Presidential Primary, Media Call It "The Biden
Plan". You might remember how South Carolina was the inflection point for Biden in the 2020 primary.
It was the SC primary when former President Obama (Black Lives Matter) and Congressman James Clyburn (AME Church
network), aligned to select Joe Biden as the control mechanism to ensure Bernie Sanders was defeated. Team Obama
was operating with a sense of urgency because momentum was with Sanders and all other candidates including Biden were
fractured. Obama and Clyburn selected Biden due to his ability to be controlled. Most of the Obama
administration now operates inside the Biden administration controlling the outcomes. Part of the 'what's in it
for me' aspect from Clyburn was the promise of increased influence and affluence. Including the pre-approval,
first right of refusal, for the Biden VP pick (ultimately Kamala Harris). For 2024 the movement of South Carolina
is being pushed to the base voters of the DNC through the social justice narrative about needing a more diverse state
for the first DNC primary contest. No good Democrat political activists can counter that culturally approved party
position. Predominately white states are bad, more diverse states are good.
Jiggery-Pokery
Wokery. As amusing and bemusing as its zealous adherents appear, their devotion to wokeism's edicts
(I won't call them "principles") is deadly serious. Any small business-owner who has had the misfortune of
struggling to earn a living near the scene of some perceived injustice providing the pretense for Antifa and Black Lives
Matter arsonists to unleash a new criminal campaign of burning, looting, and murdering in the name of "justice," knows
that once the woke go berserker, no innocent person or private property is safe. The woke love to destroy whatever
they touch — culture, infrastructure, social cohesion, rational thought. To be woke is to embrace chaos
and injury as a philosophy. From an anthropological perspective, wokeism is fascinating because its practitioners
believe they are creative freethinkers while they act as lobotomized sheep. Whatever the woke wizards posing as
priests tell their needy followers, the woke herds accept as truth. Russia stole the election from
Hillary! Man-made global warming causes earthquakes! Black police officers killing a black suspect is proof
of "white supremacy"! These assertions, thrown out to their intended audience with all the intellectual depth
of a viral internet meme, are never questioned or analyzed. They are quickly accepted as doctrinal "truths" to be
defended at all preposterous costs.
White
Supremacy, Racism and Malevolent Incitement. Per the legacy media, White supremacy and racism are the
underlying reasons five Black policemen violently beat a Black suspect to death in Memphis. Per academia, White
supremacy and racism is the root of all race-related violence in the United States including Black on Asian crime.
Per the Biden Justice Department, despite the fact that Blacks commit violent crimes at 7 to 10 times the rate of
whites, virtually all inner city violence is caused by White supremacist ideology and racism. What [...] is going
on in this country? Evidently the ruling elites have abandoned all of what used to be known as common sense.
In America of 2023, they have essentially proclaimed there is no violent or criminal behavior by a "person of color"
that cannot be explained away and thus tolerated because of so-called White supremacy and non-existent institutional
racism. This seemingly concerted effort to mainstream racial animosity and potential racial upheaval is a
manifestation of the insatiable need to acquire political power and/or monetary gain and societal status. The
ruling elites are following the playbook of the Fascist and Communist dictators of the 20thCentury by deliberately
roiling the citizenry and pitting American against American in order to foment societal chaos. Unfortunately, many
people of all races are meekly acquiescing to this obviously malevolent narrative.
Racism in
COVID Relief, Part 2. In late 2021, lawyers with the Pacific Legal Foundation (PLF) noticed that a crudely
defined descriptor in the American Rescue Plan (ARP) led to discrimination against white farmers seeking COVID
relief. As PLF attorney Wencong Fa wrote in The Washington Examiner: ["]The path of opportunity, one
would think, should be open to all of these farmers. But the act defines "social disadvantage" in a crude
way. That term is not defined by any objective criteria such as a farmer's income, experience, or losses suffered
as a result of the pandemic. Instead, it is based solely on one's membership in a racial group. Minority
farmers are considered "socially disadvantaged" and are entitled to a payment — no matter their
circumstances. White farmers, such as Pacific Legal Foundation clients Julie Owen, a single mother in Virginia,
and James Dunlap, who works two jobs and 100-hour weeks to provide for his 1-year-old in Oregon, are categorically
excluded.[... "] Ultimately, Fa notes, federal courts in four states — Florida, Wisconsin,
Texas, and Tennessee — rejected the Biden administration's attempts to offer perks to some farmers over
others on the basis of race, notably finding that these new measures failed to remedy "past discrimination" from the
Department of Agriculture or that "past discrimination lingers in agriculture today."
Race
Everywhere. Recently an unarmed 29-year-old African American, Tyre Nichols, was brutally beaten to death
by five Black Memphis police officers. They were charged with murder. All belonged to a special crime unit
known as the Scorpions. Both the victimizers and victim were Black. The Memphis police chief is Black.
The assistant police chief is Black. Nearly 60 percent of the police force is Black. The white population
of Memphis is about 25%. The now-disbanded Scorpion unit of mostly Black officers was created as a response to
grassroots appeals to stop spiraling crime in mostly Black neighborhoods. The death of Tyre Nichols could be
attributed to many things: a basic lack of humanity on the part of the officers, poor police training, lax
administrative supervision, and lowered hiring standards. Instead, no sooner was the beating death announced than
accusations of "systemic racism" surfaced.

Why is "Black" capitalized, but "white" is not?
Elijah
Mohammed street-naming: Just when you think the NYC Council couldn't go any lower. Just when you think the
City Council couldn't go lower, along comes Councilmember Kristin Jordan-Richardson looking to rename a Harlem street
after Nation of Islam leader Elijah Muhammad, who promoted an odd mixture of black nationalism, "black capitalism" and
black separatism. And in the most pernicious of ironies, KJR proposes "The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad Way" for
the corner of West 127th Street and Malcolm X Boulevard. Speculation continues to this day about Mohammad's
involvement in the 1965 assassination of Malcolm X, who'd broken fully and public with the NOI not long
before — in part over credible accusations against Mohammad of sex with underaged girls and adulterous
activities with multiple women in the sect.
The Editor says...
Here is a rule of thumb, which I think I heard from Rush Limbaugh: in any city that has a street called "Malcolm X Boulevard,"
that's the most dangerous street in town; especially at the corner where it intersects Martin Luther King Boulevard.
There
Is Nothing Democrats Won't Destroy. Democrats can't let people simply be people, they need us to be
groups; groups that can be manipulated to do whatever best suits their needs at any given moment, and any people hurt in
the process are expendable. After the death of George Floyd there really wasn't anyone saying the video was really
nothing. People saw that long video and were horrified that someone would just sit there for that long on top of a
handcuffed man. That didn't help Democrats, so the division soon started. "White cops kill another black
man" or "This is how police treat minorities." How many times did you hear about "white privilege" that
week? A digital counter for that would make the national debt clock look slow. (Ever hear of Tony
Timpa? He died the same way George Floyd did — on camera, saying he couldn't breathe while a cop sat on
him — only 4 years earlier. Tony made the classic mistake of being white, so the CNNs and MSNBCs
of the world didn't bother reporting on it. The guy who sat on him as he died got promoted last year. Maybe
Tony should've engaged his "white privilege" or something?)
[The]
Obamas ramp up calls for police reform after 'vicious' beating of Tyre Nichols. Former President Obama and
first lady Michelle Obama ramped up their calls for police reform following the release of the video showing the
"vicious" beating of Tyre Nichols. "The vicious, unjustified beating of Tyre Nichols and his ultimate death at the
hands of five Memphis police officers is just the latest, painful reminder of how far America still has to go in fixing
how we police our streets," they tweeted Saturday.
Straight
Talk on the Latest Riots. Riots broke out in Memphis and are rapidly spreading through the usual urban
areas. The purported rationale is the horrific beating to death in Memphis of Tyre Nichols captured on video and
released by the police. As Glenn Reynolds (Instapundit) observes, Nichols' beating was administered by "Black
officers in a majority Black city with a Black police chief." The officers involved have been criminally charged,
but the media to which every Black killed by a cop is just proof that we are still in the Selma, Alabama world of
decades ago — another case of some innocent Black person victimized by racist oppressors. The odious
Joy Reid at MSNBC highlighted a guest who blames Nichols' death on "white supremacy" and CNN's Van Jones opined "The
police who killed Tyre Nichols were Black. But they still may have been driven by racism."
Biden
proposes changes in 'whiteness' of federal workers. The Biden administration is facing some scrutiny over
a proposal to change the way it racially/ethnically classifies federal employees. At the moment, anyone of Middle
Eastern or North African descent only has the option of identifying/being classified as "white." Were the
administration's proposal to be approved, these individuals would instead have the option of identifying as Middle
Eastern or North African. The proposal would accomplish this by rewriting the Office of Management and Budget 1997
Statistical Policy Directive No. 15: Standards for Maintaining, Collecting, and Presenting Federal Data on Race and
Ethnicity (SPD 15).
Biden
Marks MLK Day by Ridiculously Suggesting Car Insurance [is] Racist. [Scroll down] I don't know
anything about Joe's hypothetical neighborhoods, but I do know a thing or two about how risk management rates factor
into insurance premium calculations. As anyone who's sold insurance knows, premiums are higher or lower based on
relative risk management. In the case of car insurance, the higher the demonstrated risk of a vehicle being stolen
or wrecked, the higher the premium. The converse is true, as well. Biden pretty much applied his same
"logic" to home values: ["]You know if you build, in the last 25 years, if you build a housing development
on one side of an interstate highway and you built the same one on the opposite side and one is predominantly black and
the other is predominately white, guess what? The value of the exact same home built by the exact same builder is
more valuable on the white side of that highway than the [black] side. That's a fact.["] Is it a
fact? Biden didn't back up his "fact" with facts. I only know this: The value of goods on the
market is driven by what people are willing to pay for those goods, based in part on the supply and demand for similar
products — including homes — regardless of the color of people buying or selling those products.
Providence
mayor thwarted in cash grab for reparations. Mayor Jorge Elorza (Providence, RI) is an accomplished race
baiter who never anticipated confronting charges of "racism" over his altruistic vision of launching a "truth and
reparations commission." The mayor is well-known for his ugly accusations against white constituents alleging their
perpetrating "generations of pain and violence," but that's not his first line of offense. The best way for whites
to atone for their sins against people of color, according to Mayor Elorza, is to monetize their transgressions as far
as the city budget will stretch. That entailed a cash-grab of $10 million in a city budget already stretched to
the limit. Then the mayor encountered a stumbling block to what would have been a payout of $346.00 for each black
resident in Providence. Ironically, the funds could not be distributed on the basis of color because they had been
earmarked from the federal government, which prohibits distribution of monies on a discriminatory color basis.
SF
Reparations Committee proposal demonstrates the greed and unreality behind demands for slavery
reparations. I am grateful to San Francisco's official African American Reparations Advisory Committee
for the damage it has done to the notion that the current populace of the United States, none of whom were alive during
slavery, owe some kind of debt to African Americans. Its draft proposal recently released would elevate into the
top 2% of wealth every African American resident of San Francisco who meets its criteria. The notion that but for
the "harms" it cites, including mortgage discrimination, the construction of public housing, and the "war on drugs,"
every African American would be rocketed into the ranks of the wealthiest Americans is patently absurd. Add on the
debt forgiveness it demands — the cancellation of mortgage, student and credit card debt — and the
guarantee of at least area median income (currently $97,000 in the affluent Bay Area) regardless of any employment for
two and half centuries, exposes it as a greedy fantasy of people who want unearned wealth. On the upside, it
doesn't propose the massive looting of other people's earned wealth to any African American who can move to the
city. The criteria: ["]To qualify, people need to have identified as black on public records for at
least 10 years and be at least 18 years old. They also must qualify for two of a number of requirements,
including having been born in the city or migrated to it between 1940 and 1996 and then lived there for
13 years.["]
San
Francisco reparations panel pitches $5M — each — to black residents. A San Francisco
panel studying reparations has proposed a one-time payment of $5 million to each black resident of the city deemed
eligible as recompense for the "decades of harm they have experienced," according to a report on Monday. "A lump
sum payment would compensate the affected population ... and will redress the economic and opportunity losses that Black
San Franciscans have endured, collectively, as the result of both intentional decisions and unintended harms perpetuated
by City policy," the San Francisco African American Reparations Advisory Committee said in a draft report issued last
month, Fox News Digital reported. The committee also proposed wiping out all debts associated with educational,
personal, credit card and payday loans for black households.
Why not fifty million?
San
Fran's reparations committee proposes $5 million to each Black longtime resident, total debt forgiveness.
San Francisco's reparations committee has proposed paying each Black longtime resident $5 million and granting total
debt forgiveness due to the decades of "systematic repression" faced by the local Black community. The San
Francisco African American Reparations Advisory Committee, which advises the city on developing a plan for reparations
for Black residents, released its draft report last month to address reparations — not for slavery, since
California was not technically a slave state, but "to address the public policies explicitly created to subjugate Black
people in San Francisco by upholding and expanding the intent and legacy of chattel slavery." "While neither San
Francisco, nor California, formally adopted the institution of chattel slavery, the tenets of segregation, white
supremacy and systematic repression and exclusion of Black people were codified through legal and extralegal actions,
social codes, and judicial enforcement," the draft states.
Sheila
Jackson Lee wants to criminalize "white supremacy" writings that are felt to have inspired a crime. Here's
the bill that Sheila Jackson Lee has introduced. Its title is "Leading Against White Supremacy Act of
2023" — and so I would guess it might be unconstitutional because of its race specificity: [...] I believe
what this bill proposes is that, if someone publishes anything online that is read or viewed by someone who later
commits any crime motivated by "white supremacy," that first person can be convicted of conspiracy with that second one
even if they have never met or communicated in any way, and even if that person writing the online material is not
advocating crimes of any sort. If a judge or jury decides the publicized words fall under any broad and
ill-defined heading of "white supremacy," both people could be convicted. I've mentioned several times before
that, even back when I was in law school eons ago, I didn't like conspiracy laws because they seemed dangerous to me and
easy to misuse. Nothing since then has disabused me of that idea. This bill won't pass. But if the
House was controlled by Democrats instead of Republicans, would it pass?
Texas
Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee introduces bill to combat 'white supremacy'. US Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee
has introduced a bill aimed at fighting "white supremacy" by attaching criminal charges to certain forms of hate
speech. The Texas Democrat introduced the Leading Against White Supremacy Act of 2023, which aims "to prevent and
prosecute white supremacy inspired hate crime and conspiracy to commit white supremacy inspired hate crime." The
conspiracy addition means people who use hate speech online could face criminal charges under the legislation even if
they don't act on their threats. That includes a person who publishes "material advancing white supremacy, white
supremacist ideology, antagonism based on 'replacement theory,' or hate speech that vilifies or is otherwise directed
against any non-white person or group." The text of the bill specifically lists social media platforms as one area
where hate speech could result in criminal consequences — if that hate speech motivates another person to go
out and commit a racist crime against others.
Democrat
Introduces Legislation to Make White People Criticizing Minorities a Federal Crime. Rep. Shelia
Jackson Lee, long in the running for being the vapidest member of Congress (oops, did I just commit a crime?), has
introduced legislation that could make political criticism by white people against minorities a federal crime. In
what can only be called a convoluted mess, the bill proposes that a white person who "vilifies" any non-white person and
has their words end up on social media, accessible by "persons who are predisposed to engaging in any action in
furtherance of a white supremacy inspired hate crime," would themselves be committing a federal crime.
[Tweet] The provision is so broad that you could drive a Mack truck through it. What is a "white
supremacy-inspired hate crime" under this statute? How is "replacement theory" defined?
A
Revolution in the Minds of the People. I have a guttural revulsion to one-world-government types who seek
to rule the world by turning domestic populations against themselves. "Divide and conquer" is the only strategy they
know, and oppression disguised as altruism is the only outcome they bring. They speak obsessively about racism not
because they seek racial peace, but rather because the exploitation of such petty, ancient hatreds distracts people from
the real problems those with power continue to create.
The Tyranny
in America. Identity politics, incitement to violence, tolerance for anti-white bigotry, heralding corrupt
school systems and defending the most egregious acts by communists are all palatable to Joe Biden and company. The
country is continually being fed a host of lies about equity, while true merit dies on the vine. i.e., Supreme Court
Judge Katange; press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre — both checked off the correct boxes for diversity and
inclusion even though this is an "anti-democratic ideology packaged as a democratic enhancement." Racist to the
core, diversity-inclusion-equity (DIE) has now infiltrated the military and it is a "replica of the Bolsheviks' creation
to shape a society and political order" and ensure that the Communist's Party's ideas will be carried out. Biden
enshrines DIE ideology and the Democrats' all-encompassing dream to create a one-party state.
Biden
Administration Announces $55 Billion Gift for Africa. The White House on Monday announced $55 billion in
economic aid, health care, and security support for Africa. President Joe Biden hosted a meeting for African
leaders that began on Tuesday, during which the White House promised more details of the massive benefits package would
be divulged. [...] The White House said its further plans for bolstering African development include pushing for an
African country to become a permanent member of the U.N. Security Council and inviting the African Union to join the
Group of 20 (G20) association of top world economies. South Africa is currently the only African nation in the G20.
Biden
apologizes to delegation of African leaders for the 'unimaginable cruelty' of slavery and offers them $55
billion. Joe Biden on Wednesday apologized for the 'unimaginable cruelty' of slavery, which he referred to
as America's 'original sin', and pledged $55 billion in investment to the continent. Speaking during a
gathering of almost all African leaders in Washington DC — the first since Barack Obama convened a summit in
2014 — Biden expressed regret for the past, but insisted: 'The United States is all in on Africa's
future.' During a White House dinner honoring African leaders and their spouses, Biden addressed what he called
America's 'original sin' — the enslavement of millions of people — and honored their descendants
and the broader African diaspora community in the United States.
The Editor says...
Does this mean we're paid up now, and we can stop hearing about reparations?
Universal
Basic Income Hits the Bay Area — If You're Black. At least three guaranteed income initiatives
in the San Francisco Bay Area openly discriminate against white residents, limiting or entirely preventing their
participation in programs that dole out no-strings-attached cash. The programs — all of which are
publicly funded — violate both the United States and the California state constitution, lawyers say, as well
as civil rights laws that ban race discrimination in contracting and by the recipients of government funds. The
initiatives include the Black Economic Equity Movement, which provides $500 a month exclusively to "Black young adults,"
the Abundant Birth Project, which provides $1,000 a month to "Black and Pacific Islander mothers," and the Guaranteed
Income for Transgender People program, which will dole out $1,200 a month and "prioritize enrollment" of transgender
"Black, Indigenous, or People of Color (BIPOC)." They are financed by the National Institutes of Health, the
California Department of Social Services, and the city of San Francisco, respectively.
The
terrible consequences of stolen elections and government corruption. This administration has pushed every
nonsensible woke theory that academia has fallen prey to, starting with Critical Race Theory (CRT). That's the one that
divides people by race, class and the notion that gender is a social construct; blacks are victims, whites are
oppressors. They love diversity-equity-inclusion (DEI), another bit of moonbattery that promotes skin color over
character, victimhood over self-reliance. [...] A perfect gauge of the malevolence of the Biden administration is the
trading the "merchant of death," Victor Bout, one of the most dangerous men on the planet, for a loudly anti-American
basketball player, Brittany Griner, imprisoned in Moscow for bringing CBD oil into Russia, while leaving Marine Paul
Whelan, in prison there for four years on false charges. This is one of Biden's most egregious errors in
judgment. Biden panders relentlessly to the BLM/Antifa/LGBT whiners.
2020:
The Year the Ruling Class Took Control. Is the world really a better place when a major league baseball
and football team got rid of their names, a black woman wearing an apron was removed from bottles of maple syrup, and a
squaw was removed from butter containers all in the name of social justice? It's totally laughable, but these are
all examples of the top-down cancel culture the country has been experiencing since 2020. Every day there are numerous
articles identifying the rotten woke establishment consolidating its control.
MSNBC's
Reid: GOP Trying to Keep Thanksgiving 'Simplistic Fairytale' to Erase Genocide. MSNBC's Joy Reid said
Wednesday on her show "The ReidOut" that she believed Republicans want to portray Thanksgiving as a "simplistic
fairytale" to cover up for America being founded on "violence" and "genocide." [...] Reid added, "The Klan is still
active, and as Americans, we continue to choose violence. We are a country that chooses violence over and over
again. There is no facet of American society that is untouched by it."

I challenge you to go out and find a member of the KKK. Where would you look? When was the last time the KKK took credit
for an act of violence or terrorism? Upon what basis does Joy Reid claim that "the Klan is still active?"
Is
the IRS Letting Sharpton Run His Own Personal Piggybank? Al Sharpton was BLM before there was a BLM and
its grift is closely modeled on his work and that of Jesse Jackson. Sharpton's habits aren't news to anyone.
The latest developments just reaffirm that the National Action Network is not only Sharpton's political platform, but
maintains his lifestyle. [...] New York AG Letitia James, who has illegally targeted Trump and the NRA, would not be
likely to investigate. But Sharpton's habits do raise legal questions. The National Action Network is a
501(c)(4) and while C4s have more leeway than C3s, they're not supposed to be the personal piggy banks of an executive
or a group of them.
Al
Sharpton still raking it in and lining his pockets. Today's story is actually a follow-up to a
cozy/corrupt news item that we covered way back in December of 2018. At that time, Reverend Al Sharpton announced that
he was "retiring" from his racially divisive organization, the National Action Network. But as with nearly
everything else NAN had been involved with, there was an obvious scam being run because Sharpton charged the network
more than half a million dollars to purchase the rights to his life story. At the time, we speculated that
Sharpton, along with his family, would continue to be involved with NAN and milking that cash cow for all it's
worth. And according to a new report this week from the New York Post, that's exactly what he's been doing.
Despite supposedly being retired, Sharpton is being "compensated" by NAN as its president and CEO at more than double
the rate he received before his alleged retirement. He accepted a salary of nearly 350 thousand dollars last year
plus bonuses and benefits bringing the total to more than 600 thousand. And NAN also forked over another
300 thousand for private jets and accommodations so he could attend "important gatherings" around the world.
The
Mind-Bendingly Insane, Completely Craven, Utterly Unconscionable Redemption of Al Sharpton. This past
weekend, the Jewish Council for Public Affairs, an umbrella group uniting 125 local Jewish communities and 17 national
Jewish organizations, sent an email to its followers proudly announcing that it has signed on as a partner in the
Virtual March on Washington this week, an event organized by Al Sharpton. Because last week also marked the 29th
anniversary of the Crown Heights riots, it's worth it to stop and recall that among his many distinctions —
MSNBC pundit, and an adviser who reportedly regularly speaks to Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, collector
of innumerable sateen suits — Al Sharpton is also currently America's only living pogrom leader. After
a car driven by a Hasidic Jew accidentally swerved and struck a young African American boy, killing him, hundreds of the
neighborhood's Black residents rioted in the streets, chanting "death to the Jews!" as well as looting stores, attacking
anyone who was visibly Jewish, and ripping mezuzot off of door posts. Sharpton was quick to arrive on the scene,
leading a march in which participants burned an Israeli flag and called to kill all Jews.
Sheila Jackson Lee Claims
Reparations Could Have Prevented COVID Pandemic. Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, claimed that if
reparations for U.S. slavery had been implemented before the COVID pandemic, the virus may have been contained.
Jackson Lee made the speech on the House floor in an attempt to garner support for H.R. 40, which would establish a
congressional commission to calculate the potential cost of reparations, the Daily Wire reported. The
congresswoman noted that COVID infection rates among minorities were higher than in majority-white areas.
Race-Obsessed
Sheila Jackson Lee Absurdly Connects COVID to Slavery, Demands 'Curative Reparations'. Democrats in
general are phenomenal at connecting dots that don't exist, but Jackson Lee can connect virtually anything to
"racism" in fewer dots than most — except for MSNBC's Joy Reid, of course. In her latest display of
ninja-like mastery, Jackson Lee, on Thursday, drew a ridiculous connection between COVID and slavery during a disjointed
speech on the House Floor as she once again called for reparations, as reported by The Blaze.
'Equity'
is just communism. Diversity, Inclusion, Equity is the mantra, the maniacal chant of the religious zealots
of the left. Equity comes from the elitists and globalists in the dominant political party. But look more
deeply. Equity is forced redistribution of property. Equity demands that those who have give to those who
have not. It's not a free exchange; it is forced by a central controller, by our own government. Equity
presupposes that you do not have any right to ownership of your property, including your earnings and accumulated
wealth. It sound innocuous, but equity is the precursor to all-out communism. These leftists in the Democrat
party parrot such luminaries as Soros, Schwab at the WEF, and most elitist Democrats. They all channel Marx and Lenin.
Obama's
Fake Southern Preacher Accent is Irritating. Democrats pulled out their favorite weapon — lies,
and the former president. Barack Obama has been crisscrossing the country working the crowds. Depending on
the location Obama might be a down-home country guy. Just a good old fella, talkin' to the people with his sleeves
rolled up, puttin' the work for workin' folks. Or he runs the Deep South accent when he morphs into his most
irritating and condescending fake accent — the Southern Baptist Preacher. He'll drawl on, leaving off
every "g". [H]e'll pause for emphasis and cast his head back to make the point — y'all. There's a
term for it. It's called Code-Switching. Politicians use it to appeal to the group they are speaking
to. I think it's absurd and the worst sort of pandering. Obama grew up with a white mother and white

Abrams: Georgia Sheriffs 'Want to Take Black People Off the Streets'. Stacey Abrams, the Democratic
nominee for governor in Georgia, declared during a debate with Kemp on Sunday night that 107 sheriffs had endorsed her
opponent, incumbent Republican Brian Kemp, because they "want to be able to take black people off the streets." Kemp
unveiled the mass endorsement of his reelection bid in November 2021, arguing at the time that "it has never been more
dangerous to put on a uniform, and we've seen that during this once-in-a-century pandemic, civil unrest and the radical
defund-the-police movement that continues to gain steam in Washington, D.C., and other liberal cities across the
country." "Despite being vilified by many, these men and women get up every day and put the uniform on and serve
and protect us," he added. The governor has characterized calls for defunding the police as "simply an insane
idea." Abrams has denied that she supports defunding law enforcement, but she serves as a leader in multiple
organizations that do.
Ten
Reasons to Vote Democrat. [#8] You hate yourself for being white. To my knowledge, no one, except
possibly Michael Jackson, has ever purposely made himself white. You're born that way. But if you want to
hate yourself for the pale epidermis you were born with, the Dems are definitely the party for you. Want to take
on guilt for the actions of your ancestors? No problem! Pay financial reparations to distant descendants of
slaves your distant antecedents may or may not have owned? Why not?
John
Fetterman's wife claims 'swimming in America is very racist'. The wife of Democratic Pennsylvania Senate
candidate John Fetterman claimed "swimming in America is very racist" — as she likened her husband's use of
closed captioning to turning up the brightness on a smartphone. "Historically, swimming in America is very racist,
and usually when you look at drowning statistics, it usually affects children of color, because of lack of access,"
Gisele Fetterman said on the iGen politics podcast on Thursday. Gisele made the comments while discussing how she
and her husband, Pennsylvania's lieutenant governor, had decided not to move into the state-owned mansion in Harrisburg
but made the pool accessible to the public.
Department
of Energy to require diversity-equity plan in all science research grants. All researchers seeking grants
through the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Science will soon be required to submit a diversity, equity and
inclusion plan to receive funding, the agency recently announced. The Promoting Inclusive and Equitable Research
Plan, or PIER plan, must describe activities and strategies researchers will incorporate to promote diversity, equity
and inclusion in their research projects to be granted funding by the DOE's Office of Science, the largest federal
sponsor of basic research in the physical sciences in the nation. The office operates 28 facilities and annually
funds over 28,000 researchers working on projects with the potential to "transform our understanding of nature," as well
as "advance U.S. energy, economic, and national security [interests]."
The
Army's Fort Hood gets new name for wokeness sake. Here's who gets the honor. Under the direction of
Congress, the Department of Defense moved another step closer to officially renaming Fort Hood and while many disagreed
with the agenda, there was no dispute, "if they were gonna change it, they got the right person." The quixotic
mission of progressives to purge society of things deemed offensive exclusively to their palate marked its latest
casualty with the final decision on the renaming of U.S. Army post Fort Hood located just outside Killeen, Texas.
Roughly halfway between Waco and Austin, the 80-year-old post is set to honor the Army's first Hispanic four-star
general and native Texan, the late Gen. Richard Cavazos.
Eight
things that killed the Democrat Party. [#1] CRT: Critical Race Theory in all its permutations, regardless
of its origins and history, has become the banner of anti-white racism, disguising itself as "anti-racism." Under its
banner, white people are told they are worthless, toxic, hateful oppressors. Worse, companies are actually hiring
people who promote this toxicity and schools are teaching students to hate white people. Now out in the open,
anti-white racism has created a hate-filled atmosphere of constant tension and dissension, where the only thing that
matters, first and foremost, is skin color. This can only be laid at the feet of Democrats.
A
Plan To Make 'Diversity, Equity, And Inclusion' Die. In early 2021, Coca-Cola was forced to retract a
diversity training module that called upon employees to be "less white." The training said, "to be less white ... be
less oppressive ... listen ... believe ... break with white solidarity." Far from the outlier in the DEI field, that
incident fits within a much larger trend of companies trafficking in divisive concepts in their workforces. At
least 78 percent of the 50 Fortune 1000 companies evaluated on the Viewpoint Diversity Score 2022 Business Index
utilize employee training that undermines trust, respect, and openness in the workplace. One of those companies,
Bank of America, has launched a reeducation program, telling employees they needed to be "woke" and white employees to
"decolonize your mind." On its website, Bank of America declares that, "Now more than ever, we need to be comfortable
with uncomfortable conversations and deepen our understanding through self-education of people's differences." These
"uncomfortable" discussions include telling all white employees that their lives are based on "white-skin privileges."
Kamala
Harris vows to deliver race-based Hurricane aid, sparking panic in Florida. Should federal hurricane
recovery aid be handed out based on need or based the race of the recipient? According to Kamala Harris, the
answer is 'race,' and here's the proof: [Tweet] [...] According to Christine Pushaw, rapid response director for
Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' reelection campaign, the vow to mete out aid based on a hurricane victim's
race rather than actual need is sparking "panic" in Florida and quite likely the rest of the southeast which has been
affected by it.
VP
Harris slammed for saying Hurricane Ian aid will be 'based on equity'. Vice President Harris came in for a
torrent of criticism after telling an audience that "communities of color" would be first in line for relief in the
devastating aftermath of Hurricane Ian. "We have to address this in a way that is about giving resources based on
equity, understanding that we fight for equality, but we also need to fight for equity," she said during a discussion
with Priyanka Chopra at the Democratic National Committee's Women's Leadership Forum on Friday. "If we want people
to be in an equal place sometimes we need to take into account those disparities and do that work," she added.
Harris' remarks immediately came in for backlash, including from Christina Pushaw, rapid response director for Florida
Gov. Ron DeSantis.
DeSantis
Campaign Rips Kamala for Radical, Racist Remark About Hurricane Relief. Democrats seem to have a deep and
abiding problem with race. As we reported earlier, you had House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) saying the racist
quiet part out loud about why they want to allow illegal aliens to pour across the border — because they
regard them necessary to "pick the crops." Then, there was Joe Biden trying to pander to a Hispanic group and making
warped remarks about Hispanics. I suppose that shouldn't be surprising given his wife comparing Hispanics to
"breakfast tacos." But on Friday, a video clip of Kamala Harris went viral, talking about hurricane response, where
she spoke about delivering resources based on race. [Tweet]
Sorry
whites! Kamala says hurricane resources will be doled out "based on equity". [Video clip] The
doctrine of "equity" — that is, social engineering toward the idea of "equality of outcome" — will
be the end of America if it is not checked and checked SOON.
Dems
Stuffed Billions In Reparations For Black Farmers In 'Inflation Reduction Act'. The Democrats' massive
climate spending and tax bill gave the Department of Agriculture (USDA) $2.2 billion in loans to pay farmers, many of
whom are black, who have previously been denied USDA loans due to discrimination. The provision, which was backed
by Democratic Sens. Cory Booker of New Jersey and Raphael Warnock of Georgia, is intended to provide financial
assistance to farmers, ranchers or forest landowners that the department determines to have experienced discrimination
in USDA farm lending programs before Jan. 1. 2021, according to the bill's text. Although the funding could go to
any farmer that the government has discriminated against, such as white women or members of the LGBTQ community, the
money is primarily intended to rectify the historic denial of loans to black farmers, accordingto The Wall Street
Journal. Another of the bill's provisions will allocate $3.1 [sic] to help farmers of any race who are facing
financial hardship and also have a direct or guaranteed loan with the USDA.
Biden
administration launches environmental justice office. President Joe Biden's top environment official
visited what is widely considered the birthplace of the environmental justice movement Saturday to unveil a national
office that will distribute $3 billion in block grants to underserved communities burdened by pollution. Forty
years after a predominantly Black community in Warren County, North Carolina, rallied against hosting a hazardous waste
landfill, Michael Regan, the first Black man to serve as administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, announced
he is dedicating a new senior level of leadership to the environmental justice movement they ignited.
Since
His Election, Biden Has Used Racial Hoaxes To Accrue Power. The Democrats successfully used a vast racial
hoax to put Joe Biden and Kamala Harris into the White House. The problem, then, was helping them stay
there. To date, they've been relying on new additions to the same racial hoax in order to maintain their political
control. For Democrats, having already weaponized race to attain the White House, January 6 was manna from
heaven. Just 0.02% of J6 protesters (244 of 120,000 ) were affiliated with alt-right extremist groups, but
creating the illusion of a White supremacist insurrection was child's play for Team Biden and the sycophant media.
Immediately after the election, CNN concluded that White Republicans "ignore or embrace racism." January 6 gave
Biden the central theme for Democrats to retain control over the federal government. In Biden's inaugural address
on January 20, 2021, he launched White supremacist domestic terrorism as the biggest threat to America. The
Democrat's partner, BLM, continued supporting the hoax.
Democrats
Used A Massive Race Hoax To Gain Power. [Scroll down] The plan was successful. Most Americans
believed that racist cops were gunning in the streets unarmed Black men minding their own business. A survey from
2020 found that 44% of people self-categorizing as liberal thought police in 2019 killed more than 1,000 unarmed black
men. About 10% thought it was 10,000 or more. The number was fourteen. The media gave cover to the 547
riots that took place for more than 100 days. The term "mostly peaceful protests" became a reflexive justification
for the riots. Negotiations between BLM and the DNC invariably extended the riots' duration. During the
negotiations, BLM co-founder Cullors' promised that BLM would "get Trump out of office." BLM and the DNC organized
mostly peaceful protests until election day.
Senate
Candidate Mandela Barnes Gives AOC a Run for Her Money as Densest Democrat. Jesse Barnes is running as a
Democrat for Senate in Wisconsin. Never heard of Barnes? "Jesse" is Barnes' given first name. His middle
name is "Mandela" and he calls himself "Mandela" because, well, who wouldn't change your name to Mandela if you are
pandering for votes? Barnes had some early problems with telling the truth. He claimed he had earned his BA
from Alabama A&M University but someone asked him in 2019 if that was true, and he admitted that he hadn't actually
graduated although he claimed he had. Oops. Admittedly, Barnes' lie was not on the level of claiming you're
a Vietnam combat vet like Richard Blumenthal's stolen valor claim, or Joe Biden claiming, well, about 50 things in his
life that never happened, but to Barnes' credit, he completed his course load and got his useless Arts degree. It
wasn't in climatology. It's in "communications," the same useless degree a lot of college athletes get when they
can't hack basket weaving.
"A
one hour Critical Race Theory experience disguised as a tour." The globalist billionaire who funded the woke
transformation of Thomas Jefferson's Monticello paid for a similar overhaul of James Madison's house — where the
author of the US Constitution has been shoved into a supporting role, while slavery and racism take center stage. No
American flags fly at Montpelier, Madison's plantation home in rural Virginia, and not a single display focuses on the life
and accomplishments of America's foremost political philosopher, who created our three-branch federal system of government,
wrote the Bill of Rights and the Federalist Papers, and served two terms as president. Instead, blindsided tourists are
hammered by high-tech exhibits about Madison's slaves and current racial conflicts, thanks to a $10 million grant from
left-leaning philanthropist David M. Rubenstein. In May, the National Trust for Historic Preservation, which owns
the home, forced the board to accept a slate of left-wing activist members in the name of racial equity.
Biden's
New Cybersecurity Deputy Inexplicably Declares 'Systemic Racism' Greatest Threat to America. Camille Stewart, a
former Google strategist, has argued that the U.S. "national security apparatus must be a part of dismantling systemic
racism," and that "pursuing anti-racist and anti-hate policy outcomes" should be a chief national security focus for the
Biden administration, as reported by the Washington Free Beacon. So there you have it, America. No need to worry
about cyberattacks from Russia, China, Iran, or any of the other bad guys of the world, the top threat to U.S. cybersecurity
is "systemic racism" — defined by the Cambridge Dictionary as "policies and practices that exist throughout a
whole society or organization and that result in and support a continued unfair advantage to some people and unfair or
harmful treatment of others based on race." Needless to say, Biden's latest race-obsessed hire is not likely to sit well
with Republican lawmakers who have been more focused on real defense issues rather than on Biden's race-centric
ideological agenda.
The Editor says...
Please note that so-called "affirmative action" and other minority hiring quotas easily fit the Cambridge
Dictionary definition of "systemic racism" cited above.
The Left Should
Be Happy with Biden. The Left should be ecstatic that Joe Biden has given them everything they wanted. [...]
The Left fetishizes race. It enshrined the idea of "good" racial discrimination: to stop racial bias, one must be
racially biased. Biden was the first president to promise in advance that his vice-presidential running mate had to be
both black and female. For his cabinet picks, Biden ignored most criteria of prior experience or specific expertise,
but instead ensured that his administration was "diverse." No prior Democratic president has been so beholden to identity
politics or so consistently used de facto racial, gender, and sexual identity quotas in his presidential appointees.
Taking over from whom?
Dem
Cori Bush Hates White People, Claims 'They Are Taking Over the U.S.'. Squad member and Rep. Cori Bush
(D-Mo), who is constantly pulling the race card every chance she gets, asserted that she hates white people and that the U.S.
is under attack by them. In a tweet, the left-wing lawmaker said there is a growing "white supremacist movement" in not
only her state of Missouri, but throughout the whole nation. [...] According to Bush, "white fear" and "white power" is a
"crisis" that would disembark the fundamental and constitutional right to vote.
Michelle
Obama's Changing Sexual Identity. [Scroll down] Two years ago, I decided to take a serious approach to
learning about Michelle Obama's background. I started by reading her best-selling 2018 autobiography, Becoming.
I could smell the calculation in Becoming from a mile away. This was a political document, meant to set Michelle up
for a presidential run, and not an autobiography. Even before I had gotten in deep, I had seen enough of Michelle to distrust
the poor little girl from the South Side who was held back in life because of her race shtick that Michelle had
been spieling since she first emerged on the national scene. The real identity issue for Michelle Obama, I discovered, is
not her gender — trust me, readers — it is that she is more White than she is Black. In fact, Michelle's
upbringing and lifelong aspiration to whiteness is her greatest vulnerability. [...] So while Michelle is female, it is her Black
authenticity, or lack thereof, that has been her major struggle throughout her life, one surprisingly similar to that of her husband Barack.
At
least she did not call us 'burritos'. As you know, Jill Biden was in San Antonio doing a little "outreach" to
the Hispanic community. Here's what she thinks of as outreach: "Raul helped build this organization with the
understanding that the diversity of this community, as distinct as the bodegas of the Bronx, as beautiful as the blossoms of
Miami and as unique as the breakfast tacos here in San Antonio, is your strength..." Jill thinks of Latins as "tacos."
By the way, Raul is UnidosUS President Raul Yzaguirre. I should add that I debated a member of that group on TV earlier
this year. I don't think that UnidosUS represents the diversity in the Hispanic community. It is a left-wing
group. Was recently elected Representative Mayra Flores invited to speak? How about our Hispanic U.S. senator Ted
Cruz? Did any speaker make a case for school choice? What about the Biden border crisis? So the First Lady
was speaking to a left wing group and decided to get cute or pander with a joke that only a liberal would laugh at.
Buttigieg
Launches $1 Billion 'Anti-Racist Roads' Project. On Thursday [6/30/2022], Transportation Secretary Pete
Buttigieg announced that the Department of Transportation would be spending at least $1 billion to address so-called "racism"
in America's public roads. As reported by the Daily Caller, the program will be called Reconnecting Communities,
which the Transportation Department calls the "first of its kind." The new initiative says it will focus on rebuilding
communities that were "racially segregated or divided by road projects." Claiming, with no evidence, that the design of
the interstate highway system in the 1950s was specifically meant to negatively impact African-American areas, Buttigieg said
that the program will provide financial handouts over the course of five years to predominantly African-American communities
across the country.
Buttigieg
launches $1B pilot to build racial equity in roads. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg on Thursday
[6/30/2022] launched a $1 billion first-of-its-kind pilot program aimed at helping reconnect cities and neighborhoods
racially segregated or divided by road projects, pledging wide-ranging help to dozens of communities despite the program's
limited dollars. Under the Reconnecting Communities program, cities and states can now apply for the federal aid over
five years to rectify harm caused by roadways that were built primarily through lower-income, Black communities after the
1950s creation of the interstate highway system.
The Editor says...
[#1] Think. It makes sense to build a highway on the least expensive land in town. The people with the least money
live on the least expensive land. That was true in 1950 and it's still true today. Nobody set out to destroy neighborhoods
by using highway construction as a weapon. The highways were going to be built for the benefit of everyone, and they had to go
somewhere. [#2] Generally, the harm being done to "lower-income, Black communities" is being done by black gangs and black
drug dealers. Fix that problem, Pete.
CNN:
Recessions Are Racist. The U.S. economy shrank worse than expected in the first quarter, stoking fears that we
are headed for recession, if not already in one. In fact, most Americans already believe we are in a recession.
And they're probably right. A recession is defined as two consecutive quarters with negative growth. However, as
CNN's Nicole Goodkind notes, "the economy isn't broadly and officially considered to be in a recession until a relatively
unknown group of eight economists says so." Goodkind then attempts to make this all sound
sinister — like it's a bunch of James Bond villains hiding in a secret lair plotting world domination by pointing
out that these economists "serve together as the Business Cycle Dating Committee, are hand-selected by and work under the
umbrella of the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER), a private nonprofit organization." So, what exactly is CNN's
problem? Well, it seems all but inevitable that the Biden Recession will soon be official, so to preempt this, CNN has
declared this cabal of economists racist.
Leaked
Call with Prison Inmate Reveals Democrat Senate Candidate Calling For "Secret Sleepers" to Infiltrate South Carolina
Republican Party. Project Veritas on Sunday [6/26/2022] released leaked audio of a Democrat US Senate
candidate's phone call with an inmate at Perry Correctional Institution calling for "secret sleepers" to infiltrate the South
Carolina Republican party. "We need some secret sleepers. Like you need them to run as the other side, even
though they for our side. And we need them to win," Krystle Matthews, a Democrat South Carolina State Rep. running for
US Senate said in the leaked audio. "We need people to run as Republicans in these local elections. This is the
only way you're gonna change the dynamics in South Carolina."
South
Carolina Senate Candidate Caught on Tape Advocating to Deploy Georgia Election Strategy. Project Veritas
Action, a subsidiary of Project Veritas, has released a leaked audio from South Carolina Democrat Krystle Matthews, promoting
a political strategy where blacks infiltrate the republican party and use drug money to fund organized political changes.
[...] What South Carolina Senate candidate Matthews is outlining in the leaked audio sounds remarkably similar to the prior
successful operation of Georgia democrats and republicans. The networks of the AME church and the political activists
within the Black Lives Matter movement, coalesce by infiltrating the republican party and then working to support the agenda
of the Democrat political apparatus.
A
South Carolina Democrat strategizes about sleepers in Republican campaigns. Project Veritas has done it again,
this time with a video of a South Carolina Democrat candidate for the United States Senate strategizing with a prisoner to
put Democrat sleepers into the Republican line-up as fifth columnist candidates. Mixed in with whining, incoherence,
and obscenities (often racial ones), Matthews articulates a foul plan for destroying democracy in a fight she feels is
impossible to win by fair means. [...] It turns out, though, that Matthews isn't above "toxic politics" when it comes to
plotting a Democrat takeover of South Carolina's strong Republican leanings. We know that because Project Veritas
Action obtained a recording of a February 15, 2022, phone call that Matthews had with David Solomon Ballard, an
inmate at Perry Correctional Institution. [Audio clip]
Democrat
Senate candidate recommends leftist 'sleepers' contesting as Republicans for the mid-terms? An audio clip
released from Project Veritas Action yesterday [6/26/2022] revealed that South Carolina Democrat State Representative and
candidate for U.S. Senate, Krystle Matthews, has some unconventional tactics to win the midterms.
[Audio clip] The audio purportedly originated from a recorded conversation on Feb. 15, 2022, that occurred between
Matthews and an inmate at Perry Correctional Institution. It is troubling that Matthews is seeking campaign advice from
a convicted criminal. But that is the least problematic aspect of this revelation. We hence focus on the content
of the conversation. [...] These utterances prove the Democrats' proclivity for crime when they stand to gain. It also
reveals Matthew's bigotry of low expectations, she expects her fellow African Americans to be nothing more than dope dealers
and criminals. Matthews then proceeds to display her bigotry towards both her fellow African Americans and other
races. This smug feeling of superiority over regular people is synchronous with Democrat thinking.
Biden's
Treasury: Race Must Be Considered in Crafting All Fiscal Policies. In a document that flew under the
radar, the Joe Biden Department of Treasury has issued a plan that doubles down on the racial justice movement by declaring
the agency in charge of the nation's fiscal infrastructure must now consider race when crafting federal policies. The
declaration came in the form of response to Executive Order 13985, issued on January 20, 2021, titled "Advancing Racial
Equity and Support for Underserved Communities Through the Federal Government."
Five
Reasons to Impeach Joe Biden. [#5] Biden is violating the equal protection clause. Biden is presiding
over an inquisition against white Americans. He has expressed his support for Critical Race Theory, which argues that
the U.S. is inherently racist, that minorities are oppressed by whites and especially white men, and that white people
achieve their economic and political objectives at the expense of people of color. CRT is in direct opposition to the
aims of the Civil Rights movement and Martin Luther King's emphasis on judging people based on the quality of their character
rather than the color of their skin. Blaming white supremacy has become the new national sport. Under the guise
of ending oppression, Biden and the Democratic Party want to remake whites into the new underclass. Giving special
treatment to any one group is in violation of the equal protection clause. It is also the worst kind of racism.
Blaming current social problems on alleged white oppression heightens racial tensions and keeps the country divided.
Division seems to be Biden's objective. For that reason alone, he should be impeached.
Texas Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee Calls For
Reparations to 'Heal The Land' At Juneteenth Worship Service. Democratic Rep Sheila Jackson Lee of Texas
organized a Juneteenth worship service at Antioch Missionary Baptist Church in Houston on Sunday where she called for racial
reparations to "heal the land." "She claimed, without evidence, such restitution will not be funded by 'snatching from
someone else,'" WokePreacherTV reported. [Tweet]
Joy Behar claims, with zero
evidence, voting rights [are] being stripped from Black people. Joy Behar, co-host of 'The View' has claimed
that voting rights are being taken away from African Americans. She made this claim during an episode celebrating
Juneteenth and provided no evidence to back up her bold claim. [Video clip] Joy Behar said: "We should
be aware on a day like this that voting rights are being systematically taken away from African Americans and other people
too in this country... It's a good day to reflect on that, I think." However, Behar's comment lacked any evidence or
information to back it up. She did not voice concerns over any particular politics, bills, or anything that would
indicate anyone has lost the right to vote.
Rep.
Al Green makes push for National Slavery Remembrance Day. Rep. Al Green is leading an effort to make 2022
the first year that would mark the anniversary of the first slave ships arriving in North America 400 years ago. The
Texas Democrat, who introduced a resolution last November, is hoping to renew the push as the country celebrates Juneteenth
on Sunday, and the federal holiday on Monday. "Juneteenth is a celebration of freedom. Slavery Remembrance is a
commemoration of slavery itself and it will help us to make sure that we don't see it sanitized. We want to tell the
truth about it," Mr. Green told The Washington Times.
You can have "your truth" and select whatever pronouns you like, but you must use my adjectives!
AOC rips
Dem lawmakers who refuse to use term 'Latinx'. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez slammed fellow Democrats who won't use the
umbrella term "Latinx" to refer to Hispanic people and Latin Americans. The New York Democrat said those in and out of her party who
question the validity of the term are making other peoples' self-identification about themselves.
Joe
Biden Creates 'Office of Environmental Justice' for 'Communities of Color'. President Joe Biden's
administration announced Tuesday a new Office of Environmental Justice (OEJ) to preserve "communities of color" from zoning
restrictions and pollution, among other objectives. The OEJ will report to the Department of Health and Human Services
(HHS) and will sit within the Office of Climate Change and Health Equity at HHS, according to Xavier Becerra, secretary of
HHS. Biden created the Office of Climate Change and Health Equity in 2021 to stop the warming of the globe.
The Editor says...
Does Joe Biden believe he can stop global warming by setting up another layer of bureaucracy?
Democrats
Once Again Stoke Racial Division. Democrats have always used racial division as a pathway to power.
During slavery and Jim Crow, their leaders stoked false and ugly fears about the "Negro menace." Today, they use similar
language about an alleged white menace to malign their opponents and frighten their supporters. In highly partisan and
divisive remarks delivered following the racist May 14 mass murder in Buffalo that took 10 African American lives, President
Biden asserted, "White supremacy is a poison ... running through our body politic ... And it's been allowed to grow and
fester right before our eyes." This claim, which echoes those of so many other Democrats — including Attorney
General Merrick Garland, who says white supremacists pose "the most dangerous threat to our democracy" — is
false. Much of their "evidence" comes from groups with long histories of misinformation, such as the Southern Poverty
Law Center, whose business model depends on ginning up fears about supposed threats. In the aftermath of the Buffalo
massacre, the New York Times trumpeted a 2021 "Murder and Extremism" report from the Anti-Defamation League to make the case
that the "political right has a violence problem."
Using Tragedy
for Racial Propaganda. [Scroll down] Biden's recurring suggestions that white hate crimes are America's
dominant reality are false. Whites are not the biggest source of hate crime and interracial violence in the U.S.;
blacks are. From 2016 to 2020, blacks nationally were twice as likely to commit a hate crime as whites, according to
FBI data, among hate-crime suspects whose race and ethnicity were known. Local data tell the same story. In New
York City, from 2010 to 2020, blacks were 2.42 times as likely as whites to commit a hate crime, among hate-crime suspects
whose race and ethnicity were known. Blacks in Los Angeles committed anti-Asian hate crimes at 4.8 times the rate of
whites in 2021, according to internal LAPD data. Blacks in L.A. committed anti-gay hate crimes at seven times the rate
of whites, and anti-Semitic hate crimes at 2.4 times the rate of whites, among hate-crime suspects whose race and ethnicity
were known. Blacks committed anti-trans hate crimes at 2.5 times the rate of Hispanics; there were no white suspects in
anti-trans hate crimes in L.A. in 2021.
America
is Regressing into a Tribal Society Rife with Acrimony, Anxiety and Suspicion. In 2008 77% of Americans (60% of
Blacks) thought race relations were good in their individual community In a shocking recent poll among Blacks, 75% now
believe they or someone they love will be attacked by a white person. This is an easily disproven belief as government
statistics from the Department of Justice reveal that Blacks were the attackers in 85% of violent crimes involving blacks and
whites. This same recent poll also showed that 70% of Blacks believe over half of all white people (or 110 million
Americans) "hold white supremacy beliefs." Any accurate estimate of the actual number of white supremacist is impossible
to find as the definition of "white supremacy" has conveniently evolved with the political winds (e.g., all Trump voters have
often been referred to as being sympathetic to white supremacy.) Over the years, by extrapolating the dubious and
inflated data from the rabidly left-wing Southern Poverty Law Center, it has been estimated that there "could" be many as
500,000 believers or 0.2% of the overall white population.
The Editor says...
Hmmm... What happened in 2008 to make race relations sour? Oh, I remember. Obama was elected President.
Joe Biden and Racial
Demagoguery. Joe Biden has had a long history of racist outbursts. Can we even remember them all?
The "put y'all back in chains" insults to an audience of black professionals, his dismissal of black interviewers variously
as "you ain't black" or "junkie," his he-man racialist Corn Pop mythologies, his recent condescending reference to a black
professional as "boy," and on and on. The Left has always contextualized his racial outbursts in the same fashion his
decades-long creepy touching, sexual harassment, grabbing, and blowing into the hair and ears of young women and teens were
always "just Joe being Joe." So it was ironic but predictable that Biden went to Buffalo on Tuesday [5/17/2022] to
leverage the recent carnage from the deranged, eco-fascist, racist, and insane lethal mass shooter of 11 African-Americans.
[...] For Biden, as his midterm rendezvous looms ominously, the Buffalo shooter was useful in smearing his own political
opponents. So Biden saw a trip to Buffalo as an opportunity, in a way other mass shootings were not, and made a rare
excursion out of his secluded compound.

101: How the Democrats Invented White Supremacy but Blame Republicans. If you were to believe leftist, bolshie
rhetoric you'd think mullet-topped bumpkins with muskets were falling out of every Ford F-150 rambling the back roads of
'Merica, looking to lynch black folks. The Democrats like to throw around the term "white supremacy" every chance they
get. Joe Biden, who gave a eulogy for an actual Klansman — Hillary Clinton's mentor Sen. Robert
Byrd (D-W.Va.), the longest-serving Senator in history) — dared call 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse a "white
supremacist" after he lawfully ventilated three white Antifa prags in self-defense. The ONE attacker he didn't shoot
was the black guy who kicked him while Rittenhouse was on the ground.

check-the-woke-boxes press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, is a Democrat, and so it comes as no great surprise that she sees
racism absolutely everywhere, and I do mean everywhere: the New York Post reported Saturday [5/14/2022] that it
"looked at Jean-Pierre's tweets between 2015 and 2020 and found a staggering 57 instances where she accused people, policies,
ideas, or words of being 'racist.' Also, Jean-Pierre accused people and ideas she was opposed to as 'racist' at least
43 times in TV appearances too." That makes an even 100 accusations of racism or twenty per year; among Democrats
today, that makes Jean-Pierre a moderate.
Karine
Jean-Pierre has frequent history of accusing things of being racist. Newly installed White House Press
Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has a long history of accusing policies and political enemies of "racism," a review of her
social media and TV news appearances show. The [New York] Post looked at Jean-Pierre's tweets between 2015 and 2020 and
found a staggering 57 instances where she accused people, policies, ideas, or words of being "racist." And Jean-Pierre
accused people and ideas she was opposed to as "racist" at least 43 times in TV appearances too, according to video clipping
service Grabien, whose available analysis spanned just the first two years of President Trump's term in office. Her
target on both social media and TV was overwhelmingly Trump.

Challenge HHS Chief Becerra's Claim Agency Has No 'Anti-Racism' Rule. Health and Human Services Secretary
Xavier Becerra, testifying Wednesday before a House Energy and Commerce Committee panel, claimed his agency doesn't have any
policies explicitly "anti-racist" in nature, but the health policy group Do No Harm contends Becerra is either lying or
uninformed. Do No Harm, launched April 19, bills itself as a nonprofit dedicated to protecting patients and
physicians from woke health care. Becerra made the claims in his answer to a question from Health Subcommittee member
Rep. Gary Palmer, R-Ala., who had asked Becerra about a recently enacted Health and Human Services rule that provides a
financial incentive for doctors to create and implement so-called "anti-racist" policies. Palmer asked what that rule would
entail and expressed his concerns that it might reduce confidence that minority patients would have for doctors who weren't the
same race as they are, and among white patients, who might feel they were the subject of discrimination. Becerra responded
that the rule Palmer described didn't exist and blamed "misinformation" for the confusion.
The Editor says...
There's no point in arguing about whether a rule exists or not, if it is a matter of public record.
Democrats
who claim white supremacy is top problem ignore black racist killers. Top Democrats claim that nothing in
America is more dangerous than white racism. As President Joe Biden said Oct. 21, "According to the United States
intelligence community, domestic terrorism from white supremacists is the most lethal terrorist threat in the homeland."
"In the FBI's view," Attorney General Merrick Garland said June 15, "the top domestic violent-extremist threat comes from
. . . those who advocate for the superiority of the white race." House Armed Services Committee member Jackie Speier
(D-Calif.) complained that the federal government insufficiently screens "servicemembers and other individuals with sensitive
roles for white-supremacist and violent-extremist ties." So where is all the damage from this white-nationalist
army? Where are the wounds of those they have maimed and the cadavers of those they have killed? [...] As Team Biden
searches furiously for those touched by this supposedly ubiquitous white threat, black racists scream hatred and inflict
dozens of casualties, some fatal.
Biden
administration unveils plan to root out 'racial inequality' in government agencies. The Biden administration on
Thursday [4/14/2022] unveiled hundreds of strategies across several federal agencies aimed at addressing what it says is
racial and gender inequity in the federal government. A senior administration official said the initiative is the first
major assessment of how government policies have allowed "inequality to fester," including ways they said the government has
blocked underserved communities from government services. "This is about getting under the hood in every agency," the
official said.
The Editor says...
As usual, Joe Biden's agenda is devoted to solving problems that nobody has, and making a big show of it.
Nobody has "has blocked underserved communities from government services." The government makes sure that
everybody in every "underserved community" is signed up for every possible handout and is completely dependent on the
government for the entirety of their miserable lives.
Juneteenth
becomes a paid holiday for New York City workers. Juneteenth is now a paid city holiday in New York City.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams announced the decision on Monday, noting that it is "long overdue" and will take effect "immediately"
this year on June 19. [...] Juneteenth commemorates the events of June 19, 1865, when news of the emancipation of slaves
reached those in the southwestern United States. It became a federal holiday last year.
What
Disproves the 'White Supremacy' Narrative. Selling Marxism has been a tough row to hoe in America, though
that's not to say that those selling it haven't made inroads toward getting us there. But our laissez faire roots and
inherent disdain for the anti-freedom control mechanisms needed to sustain outright communism have made it difficult for the
peddlers to find the necessary buyers over the years. That's why they've gotten creative in recent decades, finding
their magic beans, so to speak, by suggesting that "people of color" tend to be financially less well-off than white people,
thereby establishing racial inequity as a substitute for class struggle. Racial variance in levels of income is often
the first thing that is referenced. [...] The intention, of course, is that the reader will assume that this disparity exists
primarily due to racial discrimination in our society. Notably missing, however, is literally any other
demographic data whatsoever beyond that binary comparison.
Mayorkas
at Al Sharpton's conference: White supremacists pose biggest threat to U.S.. Homeland Security Secretary
Alejandro Mayorkas delivered a speech to Al Sharpton's National Action Network conference in New York City on Friday.
He told those attending the conference that "the greatest terrorism-related threat that we face in the homeland is the threat
of domestic violent extremism." Mayorkas dug in a little deeper and blamed social media and other online platforms for an
"increase in hate", specifically naming White supremacists as "the most prominent threat" to the United States. He used
the example of bomb threats to Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). In recent months there has been an
alleged uptick in those threats. He spoke about working with Black universities and churches to help them improve security.
Border
Chief Mayorkas: Equity Is U.S. 'Core Founding Principle'. Joe Biden's pro-migration border chief says the
"core founding principle" of the United States is "equity," and that he is building an immigration system built on "equity."
"It is all about achieving equity, which is really the core founding principle of our country," Alejandro Mayorkas declared at a
meeting hosted by Al Sharpton's National Action Network. "We, as a Department of Homeland Security [DHS], are your Department
of Homeland Security as much as anyone else's and we need to live that in the equity that we demonstrate," he told the mostly
black audience.
DC
Mayor Bowser Now Says She Never Supported the Defund the Police Movement. This is well beyond pretending not to
know things, this is just plain lying in an effort to rewrite history. DC Mayor attended an Axios sponsored "What's
Next" summit to discuss the future of policymaking, business and politics. According to Axios, Mayor Bowser denied ever
supporting the "Defund the Police" movement in her city; however, the truth is the opposite. The mayor even supported
the movement as it was painted on the road outside her office: [Photo]
Big
Business's Alliance With The Political Left Is Turning Into A Major Strategic Blunder. The biggest Occupy Wall
Street wasn't anarchic tent encampments, but the new hires entering the corporate suites. Contrary to what many
expected, when campus radicals entered the real world, they changed it. And so Wall Street and Big Business have gone
woke, with rainbow flags and Black Lives Matter banners and critical race theory as a routine part of employee
training. Furthermore, the right-wing expectation that businesses that "go woke, go broke" has fallen flat. A few
corporations have taken a hit to the bottom line, but most have found that going woke is just fine for business. More
importantly, going woke has pacified much of the left; a BLM donation and a Pride sponsorship cover a multitude of corporate
sins, functioning like secular indulgences.
Rental
scooters and bikes will be back on the streets soon. Shared rental bikes and scooters will be returning to
Minneapolis streets soon, with some new rules to enhance accessibility and equity. The city announced Monday [4/4/2022]
that it signed a new contract with vendors to provide scooters and Nice Ride shared rental bikes. They should be
available by mid-month. Lyft, Lime and Spin will provide scooters, with Lyft also handling the rental bikes, both
traditional pedal and electric-assist. The city is requiring all three vendors to distribute at least 30% of their
scooters in Equity Distribution Areas in north and south Minneapolis. A maximum of 40% of each operator's scooters are
allowed downtown and in the surrounding neighborhoods.
Eyes Wide Shut.
Is America really a "white supremacist" society? What does "structural racism" mean, and does it explain all the
socio-economic problems of non-whites? Is anyone who raises questions about immigration levels a racist? Is
constant specification of personal pronouns necessary and something the Left should seek to popularize? Are trans women
the same as biological women? Are those who ask the question simply "haters" who should be expelled from the left
coalition? This list could go on. Politically predetermined answers to the questions are simply to be embraced by
Democratic progressives, in the interest of "social justice." The Democrats have paid a considerable price for their
militant identity politics, which lends the impression that the party is distracted by, or even focused on, issues of little
relevance to most voters' lives.
Biden
budget proposes $100 million for 'racial' diversity in schools. President Joe Biden administration's newly
proposed $5.8 trillion federal budget includes massive spending increases for the Department of Education to promote "racial"
diversity. The new education allocations for fiscal year 2023 include "$100 million for a new Fostering Diverse Schools
program" which will use grants to help communities "develop and implement strategies that will build more racially and
socioeconomically diverse schools and classrooms," according to the Department of Education's (DOE) budget summary. The
program is part of an attempt to "address the well-documented, persistent negative effects of racial isolation and
concentrated poverty" through "efforts to increase school racial and socioeconomic diversity in preschool through grade 12."
Whites need not apply.
New
pop-up storefronts for Black-owned businesses are opening on the Beltline. A new pilot program will offer
pop-up storefront space for local, Black-owned businesses in refurbished shipping containers along the Atlanta Beltline,
officials announced Friday [4/1/2022]. The "BeltLine MarketPlace" will feature up to six businesses given commercial
space at affordable rates in two locations along the Westside and Eastside trails, according to an announcement from the
Beltline and The Village Market, an organization that promotes Black businesses and is partnering with the agency on the
program. The vendors, which could include retail, food or art, will be located in "architecturally-designed, artistic
shipping containers" or food trucks.
Projection:
Sharpton:
Republicans Will Use 'Straight-Out Racially Charged' Dog Whistles in Midterms. MSNBC host Al Sharpton said
Friday [3/25/2022] on "Deadline" that the Republicans were going to use "straight-out racially charged whistles" during the
midterm elections.
Democrats
Call Republican Senators Racist for Treating Ketanji Jackson Like Everyone Else. Here we go again.
Democrats have found yet another opportunity to falsely label their political opposition as racist. The Supreme Court
confirmation hearings for Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson began on Monday [3/21/2022] and the left is already characterizing
Republican senators as vicious racists for daring to question her qualifications. Even Mr. Magoo could have seen
this coming from a mile away. Several members of the left-wing chattering class have already started lobbing erroneous
accusations of racism at GOP lawmakers for questioning the nominee. Professional race-baiter Elie Mystal wrote a piece
for The Nation in which he predicted Republicans are going to do all kinds of racisms to keep Jackson from being appointed to
the Supreme Court.
Cory
Booker Embarrasses Himself by Gushing Over Ketanji Brown Jackson's Race and Gender. Many criticized Joe Biden
for promising during his presidential campaign that, if given the chance, he'd nominate a black woman to the Supreme Court,
effectively making his eventual nominee an affirmative action pick. This pick would forever have to live with the
perception that she was chosen primarily for reasons of identity, not her qualifications. And Biden came through on his
promise, but Democrats don't seem to care about fixing that perception. Senator Cory Booker, for example, can't even
discuss the nominee's qualifications without mentioning her race and gender.
HHS
Sec. Xavier Becerra Promotes Critical Race Theory-Based 'Health Equity' as Top Priority. Health and Human
Services (HHS) Sec. Xavier Becerra on Friday identified "health equity" as the department's top priority under his
leadership. "Health equity has to be part of everything we do," Becerra said, during an address marking his first year
in office. "You will see health equity pervades everything we do."
House
passes bill banning discrimination of black hairstyles including dreadlocks, Afros and braids at hair and
school. Black people who wear hairstyles like Afros, cornrows or tightly coiled twists should not face bias in
society, school and the workplace, the U.S. House said Friday in voting to make it explicit that such discrimination is a
violation of federal civil rights law. 'There are folks in this society who think because your hair is kinky, it is
braided, it is in knots or it is not straightened blonde and light brown, that you somehow are not worthy of access,'
Democratic Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-N.J.), the lead sponsor of the bill, said during debate on the House floor.
'Well, that's discrimination.' The House voted 235-to-189 to prohibit discrimination on the basis of hair texture and
hairstyles. The bill now goes to the Senate, where its fate is uncertain. President Joe Biden has already said he
would sign the bill, known as the Crown Act, into law.
Boston
Globe's 'Bostonian of the Year' BLM race activist and husband indicted for fraud. New England's most prominent
exponent of the Black Lives Matter movement is facing charges of bilking donors and using charity funds for personal gain.
The highest-profile race activist in Boston, Monica Cannon-Grant, has been indicted by the US Attorney in Boston on
18 counts: ["]...with two counts of wire fraud conspiracy; one count of conspiracy; 13 counts of wire fraud;
and one count of making false statements to a mortgage lending business. The indictment also charges Cannon-Grant with
one count of mail fraud.["] Cannon-Grant founded a group called Violence in Boston (VIB) before the George Floyd
death in police custody, but that event and the riots that followed propelled her and her group into the stratosphere of
prominence and Beantown, with accompanying honors from the progressive media and plenty of cash from [...] donors.
Little
Italy cut out of $20 million NY state grant for Chinatown. Little Italy merchants are screaming "Mi offendo!"
after learning Gov. Kathy Hochul awarded a $20 million economic and tourism grant to their Chinatown neighbors, The [New
York] Post has learned. Civil leaders in Little Italy said they weren't even asked to jointly apply for the state grant
even though their businesses suffered alongside Chinatown's during the COVID-19 pandemic. "After what our nation has
experienced in the most recent past concerning issues of equity, who would believe that the State of New York would favor one
ethnic Manhattan community, in this case Chinatown, to the detriment by exclusion and apart from its neighboring ethnic
community, Little Italy?" Victor Papa, chairman of the Chinatown-Little Italy Historic District Improvement Association,
wrote in a March 8 letter to Hochul.
How
'Social Justice' is Killing the Military. "Some 41 percent of the military identify as members of minority
groups," the Department of Defense (DoD) reported on Feb. 9, 2021. [...] Yet, while admitting that 41 percent of the military
identified as minorities, the DoD reported that diversity, inclusion and equity were military necessities. Diversity, Inclusion,
Equity (DIE) is the language of Critical Race Theory (CRT). Diversity is the promotion of division based on identity quotas or
targets. Inclusion is code for exclusion of specific groups based on race, gender and sexual identity. Equity is CRT's
ambiguous terminology, easily confused with equality. Equity is equality of outcomes (usually quotas), which is reformulated
Marxism. Stand Together Against Racism and Radicalism in the Services, Inc. ("STARRS") was formed in 2021 to educate the
services and America that our once-capable military has been diverted from its core national defense mission into social justice
warriorship. STARRS has incontrovertible evidence that this divisive threat spans all branches.
Black
Lives Matter's True Colors. [Scroll down] As an emblem of the Biden Democrats' support for the
anti-white, anti-law racists of the left, Biden recently appointed political consultant Minyan Moore to advise him on his
selection of a black woman to fill the Supreme Court seat left vacant by the retirement of Justice Stephen Breyer.
Minyan Moore is a director of the Black Lives Matter Global Foundation. Worse, she is a close friend and promoter of
Kimberle Crenshaw, the creator of Critical Race Theory, which indicts America's constitutional order as "white supremacist"
from its inception and concludes that no American laws or institutions should be respected because of those origins.
Biden's
choice to help with his SCOTUS pick is a BLM board member, CRT promoter and defund-the-police supporter.
President Joe Biden touted his appointment of Clinton confidant and Kamal Harris-bestie Minyon Moore to help him choose the
first black female Supreme Court justice, but he never mentioned that she's a Black Lives Matter board member, CRT promoter
and supports the Defund the Police movement. Moore's deep blue political credentials go all the way back to Jesse
Jackson's 1984 and 1988 presidential campaigns. But when the president announced that he would be setting up a board of
advisors to help him with his SCOTUS pick and confirmation strategy he soft-peddled Moore's history.
The
Left's Orwellian Newspeak: the Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Delusion. Anyone who is familiar with the
Dystopian (and alarmingly relevant) novel "1984" by George Orwell is familiar with the concept of "Newspeak." [...] Well, the
left has been engaging in their own kind of "Newspeak" by trying to eliminate words like "meritocracy" and "win," "fail,"
"superiority," "earned," and "liberty." The left wants to supplant these American concepts with a new form of tyranny:
"equity," "diversity," and "inclusion." You will hear these three words uttered almost anywhere you go today. You
hear left-wing media pundits and talking heads bloviate endlessly about these ideas in television. You hear major
national and international corporations put out slogans like, "we are seeking to strengthen our business through equity,
diversity, and inclusion." [...] When the left talks about "leveling the playing field," they do not mean make it so that
all individuals in a given scenario have an equal opportunity to achieve their goals, they mean they want all individuals
to have equal outcomes.
Defeated
San Francisco school board member says voters who ousted her are 'aligned with' White supremacists. San
Francisco Unified School District Board of Education President Gabriela López, who lost a recall election this week,
said Thursday those who supported her recall are "aligned" with White supremacists. López and two fellow board
members — Vice President Faauuga Moliga and Commissioner Alison Collins — were all voted out Tuesday in
a landslide, with more than 72% of voters opting to recall each of them. "So if you fight for racial justice, this is
the consequence," López tweeted along with a photo of a Washington Post headline that said she and the two other
recalled board members were "seen as too focused on racial justice."
San
Francisco school board member: Many Asians use 'white supremacist thinking' to 'get ahead'. You may
remember the Vice President of the San Francisco school board, Alison Collins. In addition to being firmly committed to
the board's school renaming nonsense, Collins is the person who last October said, "When we talk about merit, meritocracy and
especially meritocracy based on standardized testing. I'm just going to say it, in this day and age we cannot mince
words. Those are racist systems." Around the same time she also wrote on her blog, "Being a 'model-minority' is not
something to covet or celebrate."
Black
History and the Democrats. During the [2020] riots, Democrats adopted an anti-police mantra to secure the
African American vote. Following BLM's leadership, they lined up in lockstep to defund the police and remove qualified
immunity. But it was minority communities who sought more, not less police service. The impact was
devastating. Officers retired or resigned in droves, recruiting was stymied, ambushes of officers reached a fever
pitch, and violent crime, especially in Democrat-run cities, has broken records. Today, as in the past, with the
election behind them, Democrats are backpedaling their "defund or abolish the police" support. In other words, they are
following their predictable historic pattern. Democrats manipulating race for political gain is black history.
Biden's
administration wants to make life easier for minority crack addicts. In times past, the American government
stood with productive people and pushed back against the forces of corruption and decay. In Biden's America, though,
the opposite is true. Big cities are becoming concierge services for hard-drug addicts and Biden's administration is
joining in, with a multi-million plan to provide crackpipes for addicts. And here's the kicker: In the name of
equity, the administration will make a special effort to bring these instruments of destruction to Blacks and members of the
LGBTQ+ crowd. There's a growing trend on the left to facilitate drug addiction. Just recently, under ex-Mayor de
Blasio's aegis, New York opened legal shooting galleries — or, as they're politely called, "Overdose Prevention
Centers." On the very first day, five people overdosed in the Harlem site — although they were brought back to
life. The theory is that, if the drug addicts have a nice, safe place to shoot up, fewer will die. This is the
same belief system that sees parents offer their kids pot and alcohol at home so that they're not on the mean streets doing drugs.
Biden
Admin To Fund Crack Pipe Distribution To Advance 'Racial Equity'. The Biden administration is set to fund the
distribution of crack pipes to drug addicts as part of its plan to advance "racial equity." The $30 million grant
program, which closed applications Monday and will begin in May, will provide funds to nonprofits and local governments to
help make drug use safer for addicts. Included in the grant, which is overseen by the Department of Health and Human
Services, are funds for "smoking kits/supplies." A spokesman for the agency told the Washington Free Beacon that these
kits will provide pipes for users to smoke crack cocaine, crystal methamphetamine, and "any illicit substance."
The Editor says...
Why is this a racial issue? Is crack smoked exclusively by people of one race?
Are these people better off if the government makes it easier to smoke crack?
Black
Republican Excluded From Black Caucus of Virginia Legislature. A.C. Cordoza is a newly-elected member of the
Virginia House of Delegates. He's Black and he's Republican — the only member of the Virginia legislature
who answers to that description. As such, Cordoza sought membership in the Virginia Legislative Black Caucus. It
excluded him. Cordoza says he was excluded because of his answers to a questionnaire from the caucus. Among the
question he apparently answered "incorrectly" were ones pertaining to charter schools, collective bargaining, abortion, gun
control, mask mandates, making it more difficult to recall public officials, and repealing sovereign immunity.
Afro-Idealism
in Black History Month and January 6. The false hagiography of Malcolm X — imagining him as the
afro-pessimist ideal — committed to a violent confrontation with America continues to be promoted by our
intellectual culture. ABC News is running a documentary, Xonerated: The Murder of Malcolm X and
55 Years to Justice, designed to encourage viewers to see Malcolm X as a martyred afro-pessimist. This
vision is historically inaccurate and betrays the reality that by 1964, Malcolm X had left the Nation of Islam because he was
aware of its corrupt underpinnings and violent pathologies. In February of 1965, Malcolm X was assassinated by NOI
sympathizer and supporter Thomas Hagan because of anger regarding his departure from the NOI. Malcolm X confided
to his friend James Farmer, Jr. that he left the group but was afraid of violent threats against him from the NOI. He
emphasized this again in his last public speech on Valentine's Day 1965 in Detroit. This false hagiography played an
important role in the violence at the Capitol on January 6, 2021. An important voice and advocate for that
violence was an activist named Jaden X, AKA John Sullivan.
Has
the US Government Declared War on Its Citizens? [Scroll down] Nations of people without any sense of
shared history or purpose do not remain nations for long. Tearing down statues destroys collective memory of the
past. Reimagining America's founding as some evil paradise for slaveholders, instead of the triumph for human liberty
that it was, cheapens all the struggles Americans have endured together for freedom. Fixating on skin color serves no
purpose other than to salt the land with hatred and division. Choosing to vilify local law enforcement as "white
supremacists" while celebrating citywide arson and mayhem in the name of "racial justice" only assures that "justice for all"
disappears for good. Why is the secretary of education committed to pushing Critical Race Theory on public school
students while accusing concerned parents of being "domestic terrorists"? Why do the Department of Homeland Security and the
Federal Bureau of Investigation push "white supremacy" as the most lethal domestic terrorism threat a half-century after Jim
Crow? Why does the White House routinely demonize its Republican opponents as being malicious racists not at all
different from George Wallace or Bull Connor (both Democrats)?
Schumer
falsely claims Supreme Court 'was all White men' until 1981, ignoring Thurgood Marshall. Senate Majority Leader
Chuck Schumer falsely claimed Thursday [2/3/2022] that the Supreme Court was made up of "all White men" until 1981, skipping
over the late Justice Thurgood Marshall, who was appointed by Lyndon B. Johnson in 1967. "The president's pledge to name
a Black woman to the Supreme Court is historic," Schumer said during floor remarks about President Biden's forthcoming
Supreme Court nomination.
Biden's
Vow to Name a Black Woman to the Supreme Court Backfired. Americans seem to be turned off by Joe Biden's
Supreme Court nomination strategy. In a new ABC News/Ipsos poll of U.S. adults, more than three-quarters of respondents
said Biden should "consider all possible nominees" to replace retiring Justice Stephen Breyer, rather than "consider only
nominees who are Black women, as he has pledged to do." Even 54 percent of Democrats said they'd prefer Biden take the
wide-net approach. This may come as an unwelcome surprise to the White House, but it makes perfect sense to those of us
who've been following Biden's blundering attempts to discuss race and gender in politics over the past two years.
Though public support for affirmative action programs is on the rise, with 62 percent of U.S. adults in favor, the way Biden
has talked about the value of diversity in political institutions is remarkably crass. It's no wonder that the vast majority
of Americans, including a majority of his own party, are chafing at it.
Critical
Race Theory Is Dividing Democrats — and Rallying Republicans. Those of us worried about the
corrosive effects of cancel culture and critical race theory are often accused of obsessing over the culture wars at the
expense of "real" issues. But new data suggests that the culture war is only going to rise in importance in future
elections — to the benefit of Republicans. [...] Already, cancel culture and applied critical race theory (CRT)
are leading priorities for Republican voters and a mid-ranking issue overall — in large part because they unite
conservatives while dividing the Left; on one side you have cultural liberals, those who espouse classical liberal views
about free speech, due process, equal treatment before the law and elsewhere and the scientific method. On the other is
a rising cohort of cultural socialists, who prioritize protecting disadvantaged groups from offense while redistributing
self-esteem and power. These aims are used to justify restricting people's freedom of speech and conscience.
Cultural socialism grows out of wokeness, the idea that historically marginalized race and gender minorities are sacred:
more spiritual, moral, fragile and helpless than members of advantaged groups.
Biden's
pledge to nominate a black woman to the Supreme Court is an insult to minority groups. This isn't the first
time that Biden has used race and sex as his primary selection criteria for top government posts. During his
'campaign', Biden proudly declared his vice president would be a woman of color. The result was Kamala Harris, the most
unpopular and perhaps the worst Vice President in recent history. She has been a fiasco in handling tasks assigned to
her. She even struggles to construct basic sentences during friendly TV interviews and in public forums. Biden
has nominated 16 people to federal appeals courts, eight of his appointees have been Black women. So what does one make
of this? Firstly, it is gravely insulting to any individual to be openly acknowledged as a 'diversity' hire. How
would the new Supreme Court Justice candidate feel knowing the primary criteria for her selection is not her experience or
her aptitude or her knowledge of the Constitution but the pigment under her skin and her gender, both of which she was born
with and had nothing to do with.
Biden's
Supreme Court Nomination Reveals Democrat Contempt for Black Americans. If anyone doubted the contempt White
Democrats, Black Democrats, and the mainstream media hold for Black Americans, I would refer you to President Bidens'
announcement regarding his Supreme Court nominee and their giddy reaction. Every president before Biden had proudly
professed that each of their nominees for the Court was the most qualified jurist available in America. With his
declaration that his next nominee to the Supreme Court will be a Black woman chosen because of her race and gender, not her
qualifications, President Joe Biden reinforced a 220-year Democrat Party message to everyone in the world: Do not be
confused — Black people remain inferior. They cannot achieve because of merit. [...] Since the 1800s, it has
been understood if the Democrats have any hope of maintaining power in the United States, this condescending line of thinking
must be reinforced in the Black community. The Black community must be made to believe that they can have nothing,
achieve nothing, and do nothing without the grace and mercy of the White Democrat demi-gods.
A
Black Female SCOTUS Judge Won't Do Anything to Help Blacks. When Joe Biden's earpiece expresses, through his
mouth, its firm intention to nominate a black female Supreme Court candidate, critics will say that race and sex shouldn't
matter in such things. Well, don't worry — they won't. Whoever Justice X ends up being, she'll
almost assuredly vote in lockstep with white Elena Kagan and Hispanic Sonya Sotomayor. She'll almost definitely vote just
the way white ACLU baby Ruth Bader Ginsburg did. This just underlines, too, how superficially made any "diversity" choice
would be. [...] This is why it's so funny when commentators, black female ones included, of course, proclaim that with a
black female SCOTUS justice black women's interests "will finally be represented." Funnier still is that some thus
opining actually believe it.
The
Democrats Make Their Own Racism Explicit. This week the Democratic National Committee gave Justice Steven
Breyer the hook, announcing that he was retiring before he'd firmly decided to do so. When he finally responded, he
made clear his intention to remain on the bench until Biden's nominee was confirmed, which at best likely will be sometime
this summer if ever. As part of a deal he made with congressman and House majority whip Jim Clyburn when he was on the
ropes in the primaries, President Biden promised to nominate to this significant position a black woman, and three
candidates' names — a weak bench if the suppositions are correct — have been bandied about in the
press. How odd to admit you are selecting a nominee on the basis of race and sex just as the Supreme Court is about to
hear serious challenges to affirmative action in college admissions. Moreover, he asserts this will be an "historic"
nomination, but it won't be. (Picking an Asian-American would be.)
Jonathan
Jackson, son of Rev. Jesse Jackson, jumps in crowded primary for Rep. Bobby Rush seat. Jonathan
Jackson, son of the Rev. Jesse Jackson, on Friday afternoon announced a run for the seat being vacated by
Rep. Bobby Rush, becoming at least the 13th candidate so far in the Democratic primary in the 1st Congressional
District. Jackson launches his congressional bid with a running start provided by his father, a civil rights leader,
two-time presidential candidate and founder of Rainbow PUSH Coalition. The younger Jackson is familiar with his
father's extensive national fundraising and political network.
Dems
Itching to See GOP Senators 'Block a Black Woman' Seem to Be Forgetting Some Things. With the retirement of
Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer being made official Thursday by the man himself just one day after some court snitch
rushed to the media before Breyer was read to make it also came the expected news that President Biden would be nominating a
black woman in hopes that she would be confirmed and make history in the process. "While I've been studying candidates'
backgrounds and writings, I've made no decisions except one," Biden stated during a press conference earlier with
Breyer. "The person I will nominate will be someone with extraordinary qualifications, character, experience, and
integrity, and that person will be the first Black woman ever nominated to the United States Supreme Court." [...] [A]nother
aspect of the confirmation process Democrats are eager to see play out is how many Republican Senators will go on record
opposing a black woman for the nation's highest court. For instance, Bill Clinton apologist and CNN analyst Joe
Lockhart tweeted that he was looking "forward to watching every Republican Senator oppose the first black woman to the
Supreme Court" before the midterms.
Biden
to Announce Black Female SCOTUS Nominee During Black History Month. President Joe Biden announced on Thursday
that Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer is retiring after four decades, and his successor will be a black woman, which he
will nominate by the end of February. "Choosing someone to sit on the Supreme Court I believe is one of them most
serious constitutional responsibility a president has. Our process is going to be rigorous. I will select a
nominee worthy of Justice Breyer's legacy of excellence and decency. While I've been studying candidates' backgrounds,
I've made no decision except one," the president said. "The person I will nominate will be someone with extraordinary
qualifications, character, experience and integrity, and that person will be the first black woman ever nominated to the
United States Supreme Court. It's long overdue, in my view. I made that commitment during the campaign for
president, and I will keep that commitment," he said.
Virginia
Republican Delegate Has Had It With Democrats Saying Every Disagreement Is Racism. Republican Delegate Nick
Freitas of Culpeper commented Wednesday to Virginia Democrats: "If you're going to question the faith and the
intentions of anybody who happens to disagree with you on policy, then you don't get to lecture us on compassion and
tolerance or an open debate." "I'm keeping a running tally of this session, we're not very far into it, and almost every
day someone on the other side of the aisle gets up and either subtly, or comes right out and suggests, that if you don't
agree with them on policy, well then you're not a Christian, you're a sexist, you're a bigot, you're a racist," he
said. [Video clip]
DeSantis
Shocker: It's Not OK to Hate Whites. Gov. Ron DeSantis is pushing a bill through the Florida
legislature to put a stop to the modern pedagogy of making little girls cry because they're white. The bill, called
"Stop the Wrongs to Our Kids and Employees Act (WOKE)," prohibits classroom instruction that contradicts these
concepts: "No race is inherently superior to another race"; "An individual, by virtue of his or her race or sex,
does not bear responsibility for actions committed in the past by other members of the same race or sex"; "An individual
should not be made to feel discomfort, guilt, anguish, or any other form of psychological distress on account of his or her
race." The left has been having a sneer-fest over the proposed law, howling that it protects "white people" from feeling
"uncomfortable." SNOWFLAKES! [...] A bill prohibiting the teaching of race hatred will primarily prevent the teaching of
white hatred for the simple reason that it's the only race we're allowed to hate. Not merely allowed to hate, but
taught to hate, encouraged to hate, paid to hate. We're now entering the sixth decade of open, widespread, official
discrimination against white people on the basis of their race. Even the Asians suing Harvard dare not stress the
humungous advantage given to blacks and Hispanics. No, their beef is about white applicants getting preferential
treatment over Asians.
The
Democrats' Voting Rights Agenda Isn't for Us. It's for Them. Like the one plaguing shelves in grocery
stores across America, there is a supply shortage of racism in the country — but when it comes to the leaders of
the Democratic Party, the demand remains high. The Democrats seem to think that the rallying cry of racism is essential
to galvanizing their most loyal demographic, Black Americans. And that's how they have been talking about their new
voting rights bill, the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. President Biden himself has called opposition to
the bill "Jim Crow 2.0." [...] Because here's the ugly truth: The Democrats' agenda, specifically this new voting
rights bill, is not actually about helping us Black voters or even American public. It's about helping the Democratic
Party establish and maintain political power. It's not about protecting Black voters' right to vote, but about
protecting what the Democrats' see as their right to those voters — in exchange for nothing.
Maxine
Waters uses race to smear fellow Dems Manchin, Sinema: 'They don't care about blacks'. In anything but what
might be considered a spoiler alert, radical Democrat Maxine Waters claims that U.S. Sens. Joe Manchin and Kyrsten
Sinema "don't care about minorities" because neither Democrat will vote to end the filibuster. An "always optimistic"
U.S. Rep. Waters (D-Calif.) also slammed Republicans, who are supposedly under the spell of Donald Trump, for their
opposition to changing the filibuster math, which she argued posed a "difficult time" for Democrats and the country
itself. Democrats would love to end the 60-vote threshold requirement in the upper chamber to enable them to jam
through the currently stalled, so-called voting rights legislation, as well as other components of their far-left wishlist.
Biden's a dud man walking.
According to the election calendar, Joe Biden has three years remaining in his term. According to political reality,
his presidency is over, kaput, finished. It ended last week because of an accumulation of serious wounds, most of them
self-inflicted. The final blow came from a boomerang after the president who campaigned as a decent man and uniter
declared his opponents traitors and racists. Included in that category were Democrats as well as Republicans, leading
even members of his own party to concede Biden had gone too far. The scene was Atlanta where he gave a speech filled
with distortions and extremely nasty attacks, as when the president challenged those who refuse to break the Senate filibuster
to pass federal election legislation: "Do you want to be on the side of Dr. King or George Wallace? Do you
want to be on the side of John Lewis or Bull Connor? Do you want to be on the side of Abraham Lincoln or Jefferson
Davis?" He accused Georgia and other states of aiming to "subvert" elections and said they were acting like
"totalitarian states."
Biden's
Rhetoric Echoes the Fact That His Presidency Is Unraveling. Just when you think Uncle Joe Biden can't fall any
deeper into his own yogurt, he does. His so-called 'election takeover' speech is yet another example. Here's a
bit: "I will not yield, I will not flinch, I will defend the right to vote, our democracy, against all enemies —
foreign and, yes, domestic. ... Do you want to be on the side of Dr. King or George Wallace? Do you want to be on the
side of John Lewis or Bull Connor? Do you want to be on the side of Abraham Lincoln or Jefferson Davis?" I'd say
that's pretty grotesque. And for a guy who ran as a "unifier" that typifies the uber divisiveness that has characterized
Joe Biden's presidency. If you disagree with me, you're a racist, white supremacist, evil, bad person. That's
what he said. As usual, Mr. Biden can't even get his facts right.
The
Islamists Around New York's Mayor Eric Adams Love Jihad. Imam Talib Abdur-Rashid believes that Muslims were in
America before Columbus and spread their religion to the Indians, and that a California earthquake was Allah's warning to
America. The Imam defended his refusal to celebrate July 4th by comparing the founding of America and Israel to
dropping atom bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Rashid suggested that the Charlie Hebdo terror attack and the ISIS
attack on the Mohammed cartoon contest in Texas were "examples of 'chickens coming home to roost'". The Imam expressed
support for a variety of terrorists, including Aafia Siddiqui aka Lady al Qaeda, Al Qaeda medic Rafiq Sabir, and Sami
Al-Arian who was tied to Islamic Jihad. He defended former Iranian President Ahmadinejad's call for destroying Israel
and killing millions of Jews as a "sentiment born of the legitimate anger, frustration, and bitterness", and accused Muslims
working with the NYPD of being "collaborators" and "house negroes". The Imam also falsely claimed that Black Friday got
its name because "the day after Thanksgiving... slave traders would sell slaves for a discount."
Wokeism
Is a Religion Without Grace. These days we can't go almost anywhere without encountering wokeism.
Entertainment, education, and even shopping aren't immune. Everywhere we go we are confronted with lectures about race
and gender, with messages often aimed at kids. Wokeness seeks to destroy everything that is great about America and
aims to remake this nation in a way that upends capitalism, individual freedom, the family, and Judeo-Christian values.
The woke movement seeks to replace absolute truth with an ever-changing concept of "truth" that changes with the whims and
moods of every individual. We never see someone who is just "a little bit woke." Wokeness is something one must
devote all of oneself to — all or nothing. It becomes an identity and a lifestyle for the person who commits
himself or herself to wokeness, much like a new convert to a religion. Wokeness itself is a religion. It replaces
God with political and cultural crusades, but unlike our Judeo-Christian heritage, this new religion of wokeness is missing
one key thing: grace.
The
Four Horsemen of the Left's Artificial Apocalypse. [#2] Polling on race relations in the United States was at
all-time highs until Barack Obama and Eric Holder taught an entire generation of Americans to hate each other for the moral
atrocities of distant ancestors. We were on our way to being a race-blind society. Now we are required by
governing authorities to view everything through the lens of race. College admissions, health treatments, social
welfare, job hiring, and even movie scripts are all explicitly race-based now — something that not only plainly is
unconstitutional, but also was withering to extinction twenty years ago. Racism is now both encouraged and practiced by
the State. If it seems inexplicable that the U.S. government would actively encourage racial animosity among its citizens,
then consider how successful it has been in its "divide and conquer" strategy to keep Americans from uniting together against
an increasingly hostile and all-powerful national security Deep State.
Six
Basic Concepts Liberals Don't Get. [#4] Racism cannot be eliminated with racism. Martin Luther King, Jr.
dreamed of a world in which his children "will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their
character." He gave us the key to eliminate racism — strive for a colorblind society — and we have
ignored it. We've chosen the path of valuing diversity and perpetuating racism instead. With our "valuing
diversity" programs, we are placing value on our differences in lieu of our similarities. We are making skin color a
thing of value. In such a society, everyone will want his color to be the highest value. Just like that, we've
triggered competition among the races for social standing based on the color of their skin. This has all led to the
victim games, with each tribe competing for most oppressed status. The title comes with the greatest amount of
preferential treatment that society can dole out. We used the period from the 1940s to the 1960s to desegregate.
Then we got on the "valuing diversity" train in the 1980s, when Lewis Griggs coined the term. Now we're segregating
again. "Valuing diversity" hasn't corrected racism; it has perpetuated it — and made a lot of its proponents
rich along the way.
Race
Racket! Nikole Hannah-Jones Speaks at Colleges for $25,000 a Pop. Ibram X. Kendi and Robin diAngelo
aren't the only ones who can cash in on trashing "white fragility." After filing Freedom of Information Act requests, Corey
Walker at Campus Reform reports Nikole Hannah-Jones is making $25,000 a pop to speak at colleges. Nikole Hannah-Jones
spoke at the University of Michigan in January 2020 for a fee of $16,000. According to the documents from the Lavin agency,
Jones participated in a conversation about the 1619 Project with invited students, gave a Keynote address with a Q&A, and had
dinner at the Wallace House with a cohort of invited fellows. A year later, after all the post-George Floyd rioting and
tumult, Hannah-Jones commanded even higher speaking fees from universities. Documents from the APB speakers bureau
acquired from Georgia Tech show that Hannah-Jones was paid $25,000 to speak at the 2021 MLK Day Celebration Lecture in
January. For that event, Jones gave a 40-minute moderated conversation followed by a 20-minute question-and-answer session.
Race
Huckster Ibram X. Kendi Gets Paid $207 Per Minute for University Lecture. The leading intellectual light behind
the Critical Race Theory that has already severely damaged racial harmony in the United States and is corroding American
society itself, Ibram X. Kendi, has discovered the fundamental truth of our absurd age: the quickest path to elite status and
highly lucrative remuneration is to be oppressed, victimized, and marginalized. Kendi has mastered the art of parlaying
his alleged oppression into big bucks, fawning coverage from the establishment media, and respect and influence in the
academic world. Many others have done this, but none with the breathtaking audacity and extraordinary success of
Ibram X. Kendi.
HHS
to Force Marxist Equity in Our Healthcare System Using Reimbursements. Beginning January 1, Medicare doctors
can earn increases in their reimbursement rates if they commit to "anti-racism" as the systemic root cause of differences in
health outcomes between socially-defined racial groups." [...] Under the new rules from the Department of Health and Human
Services, bonuses to doctors who "...create and implement an anti-racism plan" in order to "...reflect changes in medical
practice." They are offering money to doctors to give value statements admitting what they know is not true —
that the health system is racist.
Biden
Administration Offers Bonuses to Doctors Who Implement 'Anti-Racism Plans'. The Biden administration will offer
bonuses to doctors who "create and implement an anti-racism plan" under new rules from the Department of Health and Human
Services, a move meant to update Medicare payments to "reflect changes in medical practice." Effective Jan. 1, Medicare
doctors can boost their reimbursement rates by conducting "a clinic-wide review" of their practice's "commitment to anti-racism."
The plan should cover "value statements" and "clinical practice guidelines," according to HHS, and define race as "a political and
social construct, not a physiological one" — a dichotomy many doctors say will discourage genetic testing and worsen racial
health disparities. The "rationale" for the bonus, the new rules read, is that "it is important to acknowledge systemic racism
as a root cause for differences in health outcomes between socially-defined racial groups."
'Biden
brings CRT to medicine?' HHS to offer bonuses to doctors who create 'anti-racism plans'. Despite a pandemic,
persistent concerns about inflation and empty shelves brought on by a supply chain crisis, the hard-left elements controlling
the Biden administration remain fixated on establishing as policy that America is a racist nation — see critical
race theory. Then again, such an effort follows the Democratic Party's well-worn script of first declaring a
crisis — in this case, painting America as a racist nation — to then implement radical changes to the
system. Under new Department of Health and Human Services rules, the administration will offer bonuses to doctors who
"create and implement an anti-racism plan," according to The Washington Free Beacon. The move to update Medicare
payments reportedly being to "reflect changes in medical practice."
Those Dirty,
Racist Electric Vehicles. When Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg callously remarked recently that
Americans would never have to worry about high gasoline prices if they bought electric vehicles, it was a reminder that the
ruling class is determined to force the entire nation into EVs. Which is interesting, because electric vehicles are
guilty of transgressions that our progressive superiors have identified as mortal sins. [...] No, the [Washington] Post
doesn't claim that EVs are outright racist. But since Barack Obama arrived on the national scene, no one has ever had
to do or say anything racist to be labeled a racist by Democrats, their media team members, shallow celebrities and the usual
assortment of demented activists. All that's been needed to be tagged a racist is holding a point of view that goes
against the narrative established by the self-appointed arbiters of race relations. Or in the case of EVs, a campaign
insufficient for living up to the demands of equity, which is a perverted sense of fairness created by race baiters.
Joy
Reid Makes Ridiculous Claim That Gun Laws Are Based on White Supremacy. They're everywhere, they're everywhere! "They"
being "white supremacists," of course. Not that we didn't already know MSNBC's Joy Reid is without question the most bitterly
race-obsessed individual in the "news media" — if not on the planet — but almost literally, every time
this race hustler opens her silly mouth to spew even more racially-divisive nonsense, she ups her pathetic game.
Fool's
Errand: Beto O'Rourke chasing down the Texas Latino vote. Does anything say "out of touch" better than
the Democrats running Beto O'Rourke as its prime candidate for governor of Texas? The hopeless stunt is supposedly all
about O'Rourke's appeal to Latino voters. He has a Spanish nickname. He speaks Spanish. What Latino could
refuse? It's incredibly cynical and insulting to Latino voters, whom Texas Democrats consider key to winning back the
governorship. That cynicism was obvious enough in this statement by a Texas Latino GOP observer: "He uses Beto
like he's our Mexican tío, but you're not," he said. "Just because you put the name out there doesn't mean I'm
going to invite you to my house like you're my tío."
Build Back Racism.
In June, I wrote that Republicans need to embrace the culture war and loudly oppose critical race theory. I said we
need to "lean" into the subject and show the organic movement of parents who are concerned about their kids' education that
"we have your back." I said Republicans need to make clear that America should be a colorblind society where individuals
are judged by the content of their character, not by the color of their skin. Glenn Youngkin clearly heeded that
advice. And it's part of what earned him a historic victory in Virginia three weeks ago and why he's governor-elect.
Democrats wholly embraced critical race theory. Youngkin's opponent, Terry McAuliffe, campaigned with Randi Weingarten,
the president of the American Federation of Teachers, who penned a threatening op-ed for CNN warning parents that "you can't
stop" teachers from using concepts borrowed from critical race theory. It's vital to ask why they did that. Why
would Democrats embrace such a divisive ideology that instructs its adherents to judge individuals based on the color of their
skin? The answer is simple: Democrats cynically believe they can create a coalition of minority voters by telling
them they're victims and "oppressed."
Alan
Dershowitz's stark warning: Justice system becoming infected by critical race theory. lan Dershowitz, the
famed law scholar and appellate lawyer, has a stark warning for judges, prosecutors and defense lawyers: America's
justice system is being corrupted by identity politics and critical race theory. In an interview with Just the News,
Dershowitz deplored the growing trend in recent criminal cases toward political agendas supplanting the neutral consideration
of evidence and law that has been the lifeblood of U.S. jurisprudence for more than two centuries. "It's becoming much
more responsive, unfortunately, to critical race theory, basically, everything's about race," Dershowitz told the John
Solomon Reports podcast in an interview aired this week. "Everything's about race or politics.["]
Democrat
wants employers to let black workers take day off after Rittenhouse verdict. We have now reached a point where
Democrats are calling for black workers to receive time off work because of the verdict in a case where white people were
killed by a white person. Gregory McKelvey, vice chairman of the Oregon Democrats Black Caucus and host of the podcast
Your Neighborhood Black Friends, thinks employers should give black employees "a day or two off" after the Rittenhouse
verdict is announced. This is not wokeness. This is just stupid. It's almost insulting to blacks.
"Employers, consider giving your Black employees a day or two off after the Rittenhouse verdict," McKelvey tweeted.
"Regardless of the outcome, it's going to be hard for Black people to work and it isn't fair to expect them to." In
the Rittenhouse trial, the accused is not black. The victims are not black. The lawyers are not black.
The judge is not black.
The White Supremacy Hoax.
As the 2022 midterms approach, the Democrats face what may well be an insurmountable obstacle blocking their attempt to
retain their thin congressional majorities. The support they once enjoyed among nonwhite voters is softening.
This phenomenon has been most obvious among Hispanics, but it is also true to a lesser extent among Black voters. It
was the source of considerable comment after the 2020 election, when Trump made unexpected gains with minorities, and the
trend was again evident in the recent Virginia elections. This unnerved the Democrats and their media allies who have
reflexively resorted to scare tactics involving white supremacy. All too typical of this tactic is a recent column
published in the Guardian titled, "White supremacists declare war on democracy and walk away unscathed." Written by Carol
Anderson, a professor of African American studies at Emory University, this screed portrays the Jan. 6 Capitol riot as part
of a long tradition of white supremacy that begat the American Revolution and has dominated the nation's entire history.
As is often the case among those who perpetuate this perverse view of our past, Anderson has a very tenuous grasp of basic
historical facts.
The
Democrats' Latest Attack on Virginia's Glenn Youngkin Just Blew Up In Their Faces. The Democrats are trying to
pull a 'blackface' Northam attack on Virginia Gov-elect Glenn Youngkin. Youngkin, a Republican, handily beat Democrat
Terry McAuliffe in this year's gubernatorial election. Liberals think Youngkin won due to white supremacy because
that's the default reason they have when they lose elections they think they're entitled to win. So, to further that
fake narrative, they're truly embarrassing themselves. They've found a yearbook photo of Glenn Youngkin in a
tuxedo. Yeah, that's the big bombshell. Oh, sorry — it was his senior prom where other students
dressed in "Asian garb." [...] Again, what moron thinks that wearing a tuxedo is worse than wearing blackface for a Michael
Jackson dancing competition? Yeah, outgoing Democratic Gov. Ralph Northam did so. Oh, and someone is wearing
Ku Klux Klan garb in his medical school yearbook photo. It could be Northam donning that hood, just saying. But
everyone cancel Youngkin for wearing a tuxedo[.]
'Black
Trees Matter' — VP Kamala Harris Asks NASA if It Can Track Trees by Race for 'Environmental Justice'.
Vice President Kamala Harris asked NASA if it could use its satellites to track trees "by race" in various neighborhoods as part
of "environmental justice" during a recent display on climate change, leading many to ridicule the vice president online and even
giving rise to a "Black Trees Matter" hashtag. Harris, who serves as chair of the National Space Council, visited Goddard
Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, on Friday [11/5/2021] "to see vital climate science work." As she met with
scientists and engineers and received a firsthand look at how the climate is studied by the space program as well as how it
provides data concerning planetary changes and their impacts, the vice president declared, "I truly believe space activity
is climate action."
Jemele
Hill thinks the election of a black woman is white supremacy. After Republicans trounced Democrats in Virginia
Tuesday, Democrats did what they do best: [...] They blamed racism and white supremacy for their own shortcomings. When
they win elections, racism disappears and we're progressing as a nation. When they lose, it is running rampant
everywhere. So, it was only fitting that the dreadful Jemele Hill would use white supremacy to explain the result, even
though Winsome Sears won the election as the commonwealth's first black female lieutenant governor. Last night, after
Glenn Youngkin's victory had become obvious, Hill tweeted : "It's not the messaging, folks. This country simply loves
white supremacy."
Dems Remain
Delusional. One might imagine that Democrats could reflect dispassionately on the results of yesterday's
elections, draw appropriate lessons from them, and emerge as more formidable competitors going forward. You might
imagine that, but it won't happen. Democrats have no capacity for such engagement with reality. Thus, they
tell us that Glenn Youngkin's victory was a triumph of white supremacy.
Why
is Al Sharpton batting for Kamala Harris? It's excruciating to watch the irrelevant strive for publicity by
gravitating toward any recording device to make provocative statements. Reverend Al Sharpton certainly belongs to this
group of démodé, publicity-seeking individuals. He was a pioneer in his field of racial demagoguery, a
man who persistently and unhesitatingly played the race card to enrich himself. Today, the likes of BLM have cornered
the market and made him obsolete. Perhaps in an effort to reclaim relevance, Rev. Al Sharpton detailed his
thoughts on Kamala Harris's job responsibilities so far in an exclusive interview for The Root. As he always does,
Sharpton began by taking credit for Biden choosing Kamala as his running mate: [...]
The Left Is Everything
They Hate. Does the Left claim that we are all racist, and born racist, because they themselves are
racist? I am speaking here not of casually offensive remarks, or even a certain governor's blackface costumes: I
mean the deeply held conviction that certain races are inferior, and can succeed (i.e., can "be like us") only with extensive
and patronizing assistance. What conclusion should we draw from statements such as "poor kids are just as bright as
white kids" or the suggestion that blacks and Hispanics don't necessarily "know how to get online" (both courtesy of Joe
Biden)? American blacks were gaining in wealth faster than any other demographic when LBJ enacted the Great
Society. Since then, the Left has used minorities as a permanent underclass who are expected to supply votes and
menial labor in exchange for handouts on which dependence is encouraged.
Exclusive:
Biden officials find racism throughout government, plan ways to promote 'equity'. President Biden, just hours
after taking the oath of office on Jan. 20, ordered all federal agencies to examine their policies and deliver a report
within 200 days outlining any "structural racism" they found. Nine months later, more than two months past Mr. Biden's
deadline, the White House won't say how many reports it has received or what information it has found. But a survey by
The Washington Times of a dozen departments and agencies revealed widespread concerns about the government shortchanging people
of color, including in farm aid, visits to national parks and the disbursement of unemployment benefits.
The Editor says...
If "the White House won't say how many reports it has received," that means they came up empty.
The
'Spirit-Murdering' CRT Agenda. It is encouraging to see that at least some of the broader culture's acceptance
of CRT is waning, but we can be assured the zeal among CRT's adherents will not wane. [...] The Democrat party's radical left
is a soul-crushing autocracy. Their ideologies do not empower anyone to pursue happiness or to succeed and are not what
America's youth need to be taught about our country or how to live and thrive in the greatest nation on earth. Leftists
everywhere demand allegiance and compliance, and dissent cannot be tolerated, because a close examination of their doctrines
exposes them as morally bankrupt and utterly insufficient. It is not racist to say CRT and its activists are wrong.
[...] The Left has an unrelenting desire to see every inequity as an injustice and the inherent inequality in life's outcomes
among individuals and among people of different races as evidence that the "system" is irredeemably flawed. Enforcing
the rules is not racist, and neither is playing by the rules to succeed and win in life.
'Woke'
Democrat Caught Falsely Claiming to Be Hispanic. A "woke" Florida Democrat has been caught faking her heritage
to win votes from Hispanic communities in the race for the Miami Beach City Commission. Kristen Rosen Gonzalez gave a
bizarre response after getting caught falsely claiming to be Hispanic. Gonzalez often boasts that she's "the most
high-profile Hispanic Democrat in the City of Miami Beach." While speaking about Hispanic communities during a candidate
interview with Democratic Party leaders, Gonzalez described herself as "their girl."
House
Dem threatens to vote against $3.5T bill unless Black colleges get more money. President Biden's wavering $3.5
trillion social welfare bill took another hit when Rep. Alma Adams said she's a no vote unless more money goes to
historically Black colleges and universities. Ms. Adams, a North Carolina Democrat and top advocate for HBCUs,
said Mr. Biden is shortchanging the Black schools in the massive spending bill. "I cannot in good conscience vote
for legislation that I sincerely believe will not serve its intended purpose," she wrote this week to her Democratic
colleagues. "If this language as written becomes law, it is accurate to say that HBCUs will only successfully compete
for pennies on the dollar."
Sharpton
gets shouted down by Hispanics at Del Rio, Texas border. There's no charlatan like an old charlatan. And
in the wake of the migrant surge at the border, out comes race-hustler Rev. Al Sharpton from some blue city back east to
Del Rio, Texas, to howl about all the supposed racism of the Border Patrol attempting to do their actual jobs, sending people
breaking into the U.S. illegally back across the Rio Grande. For Sharpton, that wasn't an opportunity to opine about
the humanitarian crisis and the failure of the Biden administration to protect local communities, but an opportunity to do
the cuckoo clock thing, and race-bait, cynically using the fact that most of the illegal crossers were dark-skinned Haitians
as fodder.
Al
Sharpton Gets Heckled By Protesters During Del Rio Border Tour. Protesters heckled Rev. Al Sharpton's
press conference during his Thursday visit to Del Rio, Texas, where he called for an investigation into horseback Border
Patrol's alleged abuse on Haitian migrants. Sharpton visited the Del Rio International Bridge, where over 10,500
Haitian migrants have illegally entered and encamped in makeshift shelters in recent days. Protesters yelled over the
reverend and civil rights activist's speech, calling him a "racist" and a "disgrace," footage shows. "Why are you
trying to invoke violence? Why are you here advocating for violence? Del Rio is not a racist city. Del Rio
is a loving, caring community. We don't want your racism in Texas, get out of here," a protester said. "We don't
want your racist nonsense in Del Rio!"
Al
Sharpton Attempts To Stir Racism at Del Rio Texas Border Camp, Fails Miserably. For years the border crisis has
been a problem, but it's not until thousands of illegal Haitian migrants hit the border in the past week that Al Sharpton
shows up. Everyone knows that "resist we much" Sharpton is is one-trick pony, using racial grievance as his financial
profession. His effort today [9/23/2021], at the Del Rio border encampment, was met with strong pushback by the local community.
Ted
Cruz Asks Richard Blumenthal a Question About Black Voter Participation That Blows up Dem Narrative. Democrats
have created this completely false narrative about election security laws. Doing things like requiring ID is somehow
"racist," even though most of the world requires it for voting and most Americans want it to ensure the safety of the
elections. They created this fiction over the past few months, over laws in states like Texas and Georgia, creating a
mania against the Georgia law which prompted Major League Baseball to pull the All Star game from the state. Crazy
Democrats from Texas fled the state to prevent a quorum to stop voting on an election security bill. Both efforts only
served to show how radical the Democrats were on this issue and how out of step with most Americans there are. But what
they're really saying with their objections is that they don't want checks on fraud. I'll leave that to your great
sense as to why Democrats wouldn't want checks on elections to make sure they're secure. But they've wanted to shift
the narrative to characterize the laws as "racist."
Protesters
Shout Down Al Sharpton's Press Event at Texas Border Bridge Camp. The Rev. Al Sharpton toured the
makeshift Haitian migrant camp situated under the local international bridge Thursday. At the conclusion of his visit,
Sharpton attempted an impromptu press conference. His remarks were cut short after protesters shouted him down until
choosing to leave the site. In the video, a visibly frustrated Sharpton can be seen trying to speak to media. Shouts
from the crowd of mainly residents included the phrases "go home," "get out of Texas," and "our Border Patrol are heroes."
Attendees eventually crowded the reverend's entourage as they exchanged words — prompting a quick departure.
When
Everything is Racist, Nothing Is. Did the "diversity" industry not see that this would be the result of their
ideology — or did they not care? We no longer embrace the assimilation of the "melting pot." We are
embracing cultural communities within communities — segregation. A number of colleges had separate graduation
ceremonies this year. One school system in Atlanta is even segregating classes by race again. It's not being done
by the evil right-wing haters — it's being done by the progressive left.
Democrats
Are Bringing Back Segregation. New York City Commissar Bill de Blasio has thrown down the COVID gauntlet.
He recently mandated that the unvaccinated will not be allowed to eat indoors, go to a gym, or enjoy a live performance.
According to Dr. Drew Pinsky, that means mostly black folks and Latinos will have to stay at home. Pinsky calls this
the modern segregation. [...] Pinksy didn't supply a link to back up his claim that only 28.4% of black people have been
vaccinated. The people who responded to this tweet ranged from virtue-signaling white people to black people who remain
indignant about "modern day segregation."
The Editor says...
Blacks may complain about "modern day segregation," but a lot of it is their idea. Here are a few examples:

How many black-only colleges, churches, and civic organizations exist in America today? Who are the real segregationists in 2021?
How
To Argue Leftists Into A Corner. The furor over Critical Race Theory seems to have died down a bit (perhaps on
purpose?), but don't think we have won. This is likely to continue for quite some time and we know for sure that the
leftists will not quit, and neither should we. [...] There recently has been very effective public pushback against Critical
Race Theory. Therefore, I interpret the post's author lamenting the lost ground and resorting to what every leftist
does as a result — ad hominem attacks against the opposition's credibility ("Nazi/Fascist/Racist!").
It is an entirely predictable leftist non-answer to opposition on any issue, and an attempt to deflect from addressing
the issue on its merits. Be prepared for it and don't get distracted.
Rep.
Sheila Jackson Lee grandstands as third House Dem to be arrested in DC. U.S. Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee
(D-TX) was arrested and led away zip-tied to jail in front of strategically positioned journalists and cameras Thursday
during a voting rights protest staged in Washington, D.C. The 71-year-old congresswoman posted photos of her ordeal to
Twitter showing her being escorted by a police officer to an awaiting "paddy wagon." Lee branded it "good trouble" echoing
the late U.S. Rep. John Lewis (D-GA). "I felt the minimal I could do is have my liberty denied for a period of time
and I was willing to get arrested," she declared. "I will NEVER stop fighting for Voting Rights!"
Texas
Democrats Finally Begin to Realize They [Have a Problem]. You'd be forgiven for forgetting they existed, but
the fugitive Texas Democrats, who fled their state to stop the passage of a mundane voting integrity bill, are still hanging
out in Washington, DC. Where exactly, I'm not sure, but I like to imagine them sleeping on cots and eating ramen noodles
every night while they mutter obscenities about Gov. Greg Abbott to each other. That's when they aren't spreading
COVID to everyone, of course. There was a sighting a few days ago in which some of them appeared with Al Sharpton at
the MLK memorial. You know, because nothing stirs support in Texas like latching onto a notorious, big-city race
grifter to push the false notion that voting rights are being eliminated because there are only two weeks of early voting.
Why
does Biden team ask thuggish regimes to lecture US on racism? The Biden administration's racial obsessions have
turned into a shameful fetish for national self-flagellation. Secretary of State Antony Blinken has joined the
discordant chorus of those who seem to believe the locus of evil in the modern world is the United States of America.
By requesting the United Nations to investigate and adjudge American racism, Blinken has abased himself and significantly
harmed U.S. diplomatic standing. Instead, he should be inviting international observers to learn from the great and
moral example of American freedom and beneficence.
The
Leftist Lunacy Called 'White Rage'. It's difficult to keep track of the Orwellian-style lunacy that's destroying our
country. [...] There are too many lies and false flags to list here, but there's one in particular that I find especially perplexing:
white rage. I've known and interviewed white separatists, klansmen, outlaw bikers, and Christian Identity types. But I've
never met someone who struck me as having "white rage," at least as I'd define it. I remember the days when the term "black rage"
was used to offset accusations of racism against blacks. The theory was that they couldn't be racist because this country's history
of slavery and oppression created a psyche where they lashed back at whites out of frustration and anger, not because of the color of
their skin. As a result, a black career criminal could rape and murder a white girl, but it would never be called a "hate crime."
That was impossible, because blacks were incapable of hating whites based on the color of their skin. It was a history of oppression
that prompted their criminal behavior. Therefore, they were the actual victims. Obviously, white rage, whatever it is,
is not the equivalent to black rage. The term "white rage" apparently came into vogue a few years before the current Marxist revolution.
Secretary
of State Blinken Invites United Nations to Investigate Racism in the U.S.. Democrats, specifically members of
the Biden administration, frequently insult the United States of America by claiming that our country has a problem of
systemic racism. The only thing that could be worse is for them to invite a corrupt, hypocritical body like the United
Nations to investigate those claims. They did just that.
Secretary
of State Antony Blinken welcomes UN probe of 'racism' in US. The United Nations — whose World Health
Organization arm was just panned for its probe of the COVID-19 pandemic's origins confined to guidelines set by the Chinese
Communist Party — has been formally invited by the Biden administration to investigate "the scourge of racism,
racial discrimination, and xenophobia" in the US, according to Secretary of State Antony Blinken. "As the President has
repeatedly made clear, great nations such as ours do not hide from our shortcomings; they acknowledge them openly and strive
to improve with transparency," said Blinken in a statement released Tuesday. "It is in this context that the United
States intends to issue a formal, standing invitation to all UN experts who report and advise on thematic human rights
issues," he continued. "As a first step, we have reached out to offer an official visit by the UN Special Rapporteur on
contemporary forms of racism and the UN Special Rapporteur on minority issues."
Texas
State Democrats Break Out Into Cringey Rendition of 'We Shall Overcome' to Protest Voting Bill. The state
Democrats who fled Texas to Washington, D.C. in order to avoid voting on an election integrity bill have been unable to make
their stunt any less laughable. From accidentally showing off their rack of Miller Lite on their bus to their charter
flights to talking about their "sacrifice" of not doing their jobs, the group of Democratic state congressional members took
their hilarity to a new cringe-worthy level during their press conference outside the Capitol building. After one
member finished speaking with the press, the group began to sing, let's just say, an interesting version of "We Shall
Overcome." [Tweet] Their lackluster performance was predictably mocked on Twitter. [Another tweet]
The Editor says...
When politicians start singing "We Shall Overcome," it's always done just for the TV cameras, and it's always
race-based political pandering. White politicians don't sing that song unless TV cameras are nearby.
An Affront to the State.
Why is whiteness so reviled today? It can't be slavery, slavery is still practiced in much of the Middle East, Africa,
Asia and if one includes sex slaves and the like, worldwide. Why is there not a big push to end ALL slavery of every
type, instead of focusing on the history of the United States and the white people who founded it? Because they are
racist? No. Racism is practiced all over the globe, but America, one of the most diverse populations in the
world, that has done the most to abolish it, is the focus of the attack. In most nations, their racism isn't identified
as such, because their populations are nearly 100% of a single race and the few who are not are openly treated differently
and denied equality. Sports figures advocate, promote and profit from some of the most egregious sponsors of racism and
slavery on the planet today. The entertainment industry is no different. It is not just a curiosity, or an irony,
it is the product of communist/fascism that is making its presence known and felt in America to the greatest degree.
Sharpton:
We 'Cannot Sit by and Allow Them to Erode Our Voting Rights'. MSNBC's Al Sharpton on Friday [7/9/2021] warned
that the United States is "on the precipice of" eroding the voting rights of minorities. Sharpton, who was part of a
group of civil rights leaders that recently met with President Joe Biden to discuss battling new voting restrictions put in
place in some Republican-led states, said on "Morning Joe" that he and other protesters will "turn up the street heat" to
fight for voting rights because they "cannot sit by and allow them to erode our voting rights."
Intelligence
agency busted for blatant Photoshop job on cover of diversity report. The Office of the Director of National
Intelligence (ODNI) was roundly mocked on social media Thursday for using an image on the cover of its annual diversity
report that was obviously Photoshopped. The report, subtitled "Hiring and Retention of Minorities, Women, and Persons
with Disabilities in the United States Intelligence Community," featured a photo of smiling, diverse office staffers standing
in a lobby, flanked by a woman in a wheelchair and a blind man with a seeing-eye dog. The title of the image on stock
photography company Shutterstock is: "Portrait Of Multi-Cultural Office Staff Standing In Lobby." But one glaring
problem — which was first pointed out by Republican political consultant and podcaster Luke Thompson —
is that the woman in the wheelchair and the blind man don't appear in the original stock photo. They seem to have been
Photoshopped into the image used on the ODNI report.
Scapegoats,
Boogeymen, and Hobgoblins. The world may be increasingly baffled by 2021 America, and its sudden scapegoating
of "white supremacist" hobgoblins for problems it cannot or will not solve. Roughly 400 Americans were shot over the
past July 4 holiday weekend. About 150 of them were killed. The majority, both of the shooters and the victims,
were inner-city, African-American males. The level of violence approaches the bad casualty days of the recent Afghan
and Iraq wars. Meanwhile, during the carnage, progressive black leaders, from Representatives Maxine Waters (D-Calif.)
to Cori Bush (D-Mo.), blasted America's foundational holiday and the country at large for its white supremacy and the current
supposed lack of freedom for African Americans.
Jason
Whitlock: The KLAN or the CRIPS: Who should we REALLY fear? On Wednesday's [7/7/2021] episode of
"Fearless," contributor Delano Squires joined BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock to expose the Biden administration's misguided
thinking on race and to explain why the Klan is not as big a danger to the black community as the Crips and other
gangs. [Video clip]
San
Francisco Political Leaders Out of Touch as City Descends Into Lawlessness. If you don't like the explosion of
violent crime, you're a racist. That's the message sent by a top aide to the San Francisco district attorney to a
self-described "Democrat" who had said on Twitter that the jump in crime had made people afraid for their lives and dubious
about the city's future. The Democrat tweeted that "every single one of my friends right now is considering leaving"
San Francisco because of the big increase in crime, adding: "My friends are scared for their children, and their
husbands are scared for their wives." Kate Chatfield, a senior director for San Francisco District Attorney Chesa
Boudin, responded from a now-locked Twitter account: "'Husbands are scared for their wives' — your reminder that
the 'crime surge' crowd shares the same ideology as The Birth of a Nation."
No Forgiveness for 1492.
Canada is currently undergoing the same orgy of antiwhite fear and loathing as the United States, although, due to the lack
of blacks in Canadian history, it's rationalized as justified by white mistreatment of Amerindians in the past. Ten
churches in Alberta were set on fire on Canada Day, July 1, as part of a national nervous breakdown over "unmarked graves" at
disused residential schools for Indian students. While in the U.S. the problems of American Indians in the 21st century
have largely been ignored because extroverted blacks vacuum up most of the attention, the Great Awokening in Canada focused
upon "First Nations" as its sacralized victims. Public meetings in Canada now begin with ritual incantations that "We
acknowledge that we are situated on traditional land of the [insert name here] people." This doesn't mean that white
Canadians actually intend to give their property back to the First Nations. But it will be interesting to see how they
react once it is clear that this symbolism hasn't reduced the natives' alcoholism and anomie.
Squad
member Cori Bush sparks outrage by saying she won't celebrate Independence Day because 'this land is stolen and black people still aren't free'.
Missouri Congresswoman Cori Bush sparked controversy on Sunday with a tweet in which she said Independence Day was only a
holiday for white people. 'When they say that the 4th of July is about American freedom, remember this: the freedom
they're referring to is for white people,' she wrote. 'This land is stolen land and Black people still aren't free.'
Bush, who was first elected to the House of Representatives in November, has been widely viewed as the newest member of the
so-called 'Squad' of congresswomen known for being outspoken on their left-wing views, and she is no stranger to controversy.
Squad member says Fourth
of July is about freedom 'for white people'. Democratic Rep. Cori Bush disputed the Fourth of July's
message of independence on Sunday, saying the holiday only represents freedom "for white people." "When they say that
the 4th of July is about American freedom, remember this: the freedom they're referring to is for white people," Bush, a
member of the left-wing "Squad," wrote on Twitter amid celebrations of the 245th Independence Day. "This land is stolen
land and Black people still aren't free." "We know what our own freedom looks like," Bush wrote hours later in a
follow-up tweet. "End the slavery permitted under the 13th amendment. End the War on Drugs. End police
violence. End health care, housing, and education apartheid. WE are the experts on our own liberation. And
we won't stop until it's won."
The Editor says...
The blacks want a separate Independence Day, a separate national anthem, trillions of dollars in reparations for slavery,
no consequences for black crime, anti-white racism in public schools, anti-white discrimination, and centuries of "affirmative
action" programs. They stoke race-based resentment wherever possible, trying to permanently divide the country.
Maxine
Waters Criticizes Declaration of Independence on Fourth of July. House Financial Services Committee Chairwoman
Maxine Waters (D-CA) criticized the Declaration of Independence in a tweet on July 4th, suggesting it is a racist document
because it was written almost 250 years ago, when there was slavery in the United States.
The Editor says...
Using this reasoning, one could claim that any document or book written in North America in the 18th century is racist.
Are the Federalist Papers racist? There was plenty of slavery in the Middle East when the Bible was written. Does
that mean the Bible is racist?
The
Fifty-Year War on America's Soul. When ordinary Americans are bullied into reciting that the George Floyds, the
Michael Browns, the Trayvon Martins of the world are helpless innocents and victims of "police brutality" and that statues
should be built in their honor, they mumble under their breath: "Come ON. I know a fatherless drugged-out habitual
criminal twerp when I see one." Nobody except pre-Boomers like President Biden says "C'mon Man" anymore. And you
better not let the HR folks at work hear your "Come ON" mutterings. Things have gotten much more serious in our 21st
century culture. That's because the suffering of oppressed peoples did not end with the Great Society nor with the
Civil Rights Act nor with the Voting Rights Act nor with Affirmative Action nor with Diversity and Inclusion. Every
nice liberal lady knows that. So, there is only one recourse. We must proceed to Critical Race Theory in the
schools and shame little children into lifelong guilt.
Weimar
Turmoil and Racial Incitement. [Scroll down] In its role as amplifier of grievance, our shamelessly
politicized media can be relied upon to continue parading before the public that hallowed list of names said to belong to
martyrs of systemic police racism — names one cannot fail to notice are made up almost entirely of politically
unaffiliated thugs posthumously recruited into a political cause to which they had no connection in life. These morbid
commemorations remind us of the worshipful treatment of the putatively heroic martyrs of the National Socialist movement on
the occasion of their deaths. Taken as episodes of political theater, these funerary performances aren't so much
intended to honor the dead or comfort their families as to indict the hated enemy and incite resistance to it, an aim
Goebbels would certainly recognize; he understood the value of clarity, and he well knew that the world is so much less
confusing when viewed through the lens of hateful oversimplifications. And so these names have been (and no doubt will
continue to be) invoked to justify, even sanctify, episodes of rioting and widespread political violence. Criminality,
then, in all its spontaneous ugliness, is conflated with legitimate political protest.
Josh
Hawley Takes On CRT in a Fight for the Nation's 'Soul'. The veep's trip down Pennsylvania Avenue was
unscheduled but necessary. [Kamala] Harris had to travel to the Senate last Tuesday to rescue the nomination of Kiran
Arjandas Ahuja, President Biden's pick to head the Office of Personnel Management. It was Hawley, in large part, who
had convinced his Republican colleagues to oppose the nomination. Until Harris' motorcade rolled to a stop, the Senate
was split 50-50. She cast the deciding vote. The dust-up over the OPM nominee was the latest skirmish in the larger
ideological battle over the soul of the nation. Progressives who espouse critical race theory argue that white people
should own up to the benefits afforded to them by the systemic racism woven into the fabric of this country's past and present.
Biden
Executive Order Mandates Divisive, Unscientific Race 'Training' At Every Level Of The Federal Government.
President Joe Biden signed an executive order on Friday [6/25/2021] that ensures that every part of the federal government
will conduct race-conscious diversity training and engage in race-conscious hiring. The executive order "establishes an
ambitious, whole-of-government initiative that will take a systematic approach to embedding DEIA [diversity, equity,
inclusion, and accessibility] in Federal hiring and employment practices," according to a White House fact sheet. In
practice, it will ensure that federal agencies employ tenets associated with Critical Race Theory (CRT) within their hiring
practices and day-to-day activities.
George
Floyd, Daunte Wright and Jacob Blake are not Worthy of Celebration. Racism has always been the DNA of the
Democrat party. America has a deep and colored history of racism. Once it was an everyday experience, now it is a
fleeting memory except for the folk who do not want to see it abrogated. It is essential to these cats that George
Floyd, a man with a vicious criminal history is a saint. Never mind he had been involved in and convicted for
aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon, criminal trespassing and entering a woman's home and pointing a gun at her stomach
while she was pregnant. Not to mention he robbed a pregnant woman in her home and pistol whipped her. Yet he is
worshiped, and Heaven Sutton is memory holed. Then there is Winston Smith. According to Minnesota court records,
Smith had a lengthy criminal history. In 2017, he was convicted of aggravated robbery in the first degree. Also,
we can add Daunte Wright. The 20-year-old who was shot and killed earlier this year had previously been charged with
first-degree aggravated robbery in which he demanded a woman give him money while pointing the gun at her and choking her
when she didn't. It is sad that these people died. But the lesson is that one reaps what [they] sow. George
Floyd, Daunte Wright and Jacob Blake should not have died the way they did. But they brought it upon themselves.
They should not warrant protest and they [surely] do not warrant celebration.
Chicago's Lake
Shore Drive renamed for Jean Baptiste Point DuSable. Jean Baptiste Point DuSable Lake Shore Drive it is.
Or rather, will soon be. Two years after a South Side alderman introduced an ordinance to rebrand the landmark Chicago
Lake Shore Drive to honor DuSable because he was upset he didn't hear the Black founder of Chicago mentioned during a river
boat tour, the City Council on Friday [6/25/2021] ended months of racially charged debate by adopting a compromise to
make it so.
Critical
Race Theory and Other Leftist Values Purposefully Cause Destruction. Television news programming has severe
time limitations, so this segment just barely scratches the surface of what's bubbling beneath the modern race-baiting
culture. But Will Cain is onto something important here that is worth examining further, especially as it pertains to
what logically follows the left's daily identity politics and racism blitz. Eventually, people are going to tire of
being labeled a racist and will fight back. At that point, the left, after years of hollow finger-pointing and baseless
accusations, will finally, gleefully, claim that they've been correct all along. And that's the point of all this
racial posturing — critical theories, white guilt, revisionist history — it's all meant to either
encourage shame or drive well-meaning Americans to the point of rage.
Rep.
Rashida Tlaib Says Opposition to Critical Race Theory Is 'Rooted in Racism'. Rep. Rashida Tlaib said
Thursday that opposition to critical race theory is "rooted in racism." "Opposition to critical race theory is
obviously rooted in racism and has just become the newest dog whistle for racists," the Michigan Democrat tweeted Thursday,
referring to a video in which Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. Mark A. Milley defended critical race theory to the
House Armed Services Committee Wednesday [6/23/2021]. Critical race theory holds that America is fundamentally racist,
yet it teaches people to view every social interaction and person in terms of race. Its adherents pursue "anti-racism"
through the end of merit, objective truth, and the adoption of race-based policies.
Chairman
Milley Degrades, Divides and Politicizes the Military. General Milley of the Joint Chiefs of Staff turned in a
performance that was part gaslighting and part humiliating theater. It's hard to imagine how his part in the hearing
could have gone any worse than defending the imposition of critical race theory by arguing, "I've read Mao Zedong. I've
read Karl Marx. I've read Lenin. That doesn't make me a communist." The military does not, as of yet, conduct
Communist indoctrination sessions. [...] At the rate we're going it may only be a matter of time. Learning from the
enemy is very different than becoming the enemy. Indoctrinating personnel with critical race theory is not studying the
enemy. It's trying to convince our men and women that America is the enemy. [...] Does rage have a color? And is
diving America around such cheap race-baiting tactics strengthening or weakening the military? Milley knows the answer,
but he also knows, like so many other figures in this career space, that he has to parrot the party line if he wants to have
a future. And national security is a small price to pay for his career.
Leaked Documents from Iowa
School System show Teachers are FORCED to classify [MAGA] as a type of "racism" & "white supremacy". [Thread
reader] This is done through MANDATORY Critical Race Theory training FORCED on teachers at taxpayer expense. Trump won
Iowa by +9 points[.] Teachers of Iowa are being INSTRUCTED to classify the vast majority of Iowan children as Racist &
White Supremacist. Iowa is Trump country. Trump carried 94 out of 99 Iowa counties in 2020. The Republican
Governor endorsed Trump. The Iowa Senate/House is solid Republican. This is a ROCK SOLID, REAL WORLD application
of Critical Race Theory being used as a *political* weapon to target Republicans. This is NOT education. It is
naked political vengeance using the state education system and our children's educators.
Blinken
uses our embassies as leftist political billboards. There are those in America undoubtedly pleased with her
leftward tilt — one masterminded from within our republic — with some voluntarily driven by our own
government. Take Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken's decision to fly the Black Lives Matter (BLM) flag at U.S.
embassies around the world upon the first anniversary of George Floyd's death. Floyd was the black suspect who
unfortunately died at the hands of white police officer Derek Chauvin while resisting arrest in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on
May 25, 2020. Chauvin had knelt on Floyd for nine minutes and 29 seconds, contributing to Floyd's demise —
although it was undoubtedly further enhanced by Floyd having just swallowed a lethal dose of fentanyl. His death
triggered riots across the country under the BLM banner. Of little interest to the media and rioting mobs was Floyd's
violent criminal history. Thus, Blinken's decision to fly the BLM flag at our embassies gives hero status to a man
whose only contribution to life was his death — one for which liberal activists have awarded him martyrdom.
Here's
Why it was So Important for Democrats to Make Juneteenth a National Holiday. When the Civil War ended, and
after Republican President Abraham Lincoln liberated the slaves, Democrats initiated Jim Crow laws to punish blacks.
Democrats discriminated against blacks. In fact, the KKK, was founded as the the terrorist wing of the Democrat Party.
The Ku Klux Klan assassinated many Republicans including Republican Representative James M. Hinds (December 5, 1833 -
October 22, 1868) of Little Rock. Hinds represented Arkansas in the United States Congress from June 24, 1868
through October 22, 1868 before his death. [...] On April 20, 1871 the Republicans passed the anti-Ku Klux Klan Act
outlawing Democratic terrorist groups. The last KKK official to serve in Washington DC was former Senator Robert Byrd, a
KKK kleagle. Byrd was a top Democrat and friend of Joe Biden. In fact, throughout the Civil Rights era of the 19th
and 20th century Democrats fought against freedom and rights for the black man. The only blip of positive news during
the 19th Century for Democrats was the long-forgotten Juneteenth celebration. [...] This is the only bright spot for Democrats
today in the entire history of civil rights in the 19th and most of the 20th centuries. Hence, they made it a national
holiday. They had to.
Appeasement only leads to more and greater demands.
Squad
member Cori Bush now calls for reparations and 'black liberation' after House votes to make Juneteenth a 'National
Independence Day' federal holiday. Squad member, Rep. Cori Bush said on Wednesday night [6/16/2021] that
black Americans now need reparations and 'liberation' after the House approved a bill making Juneteenth a federal holiday
known as 'National Independence Day'. President Biden is set to sign the bill at an event with Kamala Harris on Thursday
afternoon after it passed through Congress, with 14 Republican members voting against and saying it conflicted with July 4.
'It's Juneteenth AND reparations. It's Juneteenth AND end police violence + the War on Drugs. It's Juneteenth AND end
housing + education apartheid. It's Juneteenth AND teach the truth about white supremacy in our country,' she wrote in a tweet
Wednesday night. 'Black liberation in its totality must be prioritized,' the Missouri Democrat encouraged.
Juneteenth
bill passes House, set to become 11th federal holiday. A bill to make Juneteenth Independence Day a federal
holiday passed the House on Wednesday [6/16/2021] and will head to President Joe Biden's desk for his signature. The
bill would make June 19 the 11th federal legal public holiday. Also known as Emancipation Day or Jubilee Day,
Juneteenth commemorates the end of slavery in the United States marked by Major General Gordon Granger arriving in Galveston
Bay, Texas, with 2,000 Union troops to issue an order on June 19, 1865, that said "all slaves are free" under the
Emancipation Proclamation. President Abraham Lincoln issued the proclamation on Sept. 22, 1862, to go into effect on
Jan. 1, 1863. However, hundreds of thousands of black people in areas under Confederate control remained enslaved
throughout the Civil War.
Take
Your Fictitious Systemic Racism and White Privilege and Shove It. Over the past fifty years the
Marxist-inspired American Left has been hellbent on trying to convince the citizenry that the United States is and always has
been a malevolent nation due to "systemic racism" and "white privilege." [...] Therefore, the current white population must
openly confess their collective guilt and seek forgiveness. Additionally, and in light of this demonic legacy, every
American of any race should be mortified to be a citizen of such vile irredeemable country and its historic roots in
Judeo-Christian dogma. Not coincidentally, this same American Left, or as Mark Levin more accurately labels them,
American Marxists, have declared that there is a path toward national redemption and a mechanism to forever erase the stain
of "white privilege" and "systemic racism." It is for the American Marxists (almost entirely populated by members of the
white race) to assume the reins of power in perpetuity and transform the nation into a one-party secular socialist paradise.

Mayor
Frey will use $28 million in pandemic relief money for housing in Minneapolis. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey
wants to use $28 million of American Rescue Plan money for affordable housing, including rental assistance to low-income
tenants, pathways out of homelessness and new homeownership opportunities, particularly for Black and Indigenous people and
people of color. At a news conference at the Elliot Twins public housing complex Thursday, Frey said his plan will help
keep people in their homes as the city anticipates a wave of evictions after a statewide ban is lifted. The federal
government is expected to end its eviction moratorium on June 30. "There is a looming eviction moratorium that will
be lifted," Frey said. "People are struggling to make ends meet, and we want to make sure that those who are struggling
most are provided the assistance first."
Why
Obama's So Defensive of Critical Race Theory. [Scroll down] For fifty years Obama and people like him
have been scamming the system. Critical Race Theory is a codification of that scam. To justify the unearned
benefits that come with being black or half-black, the "theorists" have to pretend that the continuing risks of being black
justify the rewards. This results in an increased demand for evidence of racism amid a dwindling supply. In the
absence of real racism, the theorists have had to imagine it or to re-create it à la Jussie Smollett and a thousand
other hoaxers across the fruited plain. With mandatory CRT imposed in schools and other institutions, the CRT
"trainers" are able to demand that whites imagine a racist America along with them. Those who refuse this nonsense, who
refuse to live their lives in the requisite shame and guilt, further justify CRT by their seeming embrace of white supremacy,
the new and even more ludicrous label now applied even to unyielding African-Americans. Sorry, Barry, but CRT is
a threat to our Republic.
Biden
tells US graduate class of 2021 that systemic racism is one of 'the greatest crises of our time' and compares it to the
Vietnam War. President Joe Biden told new graduates that systemic racism is one of the 'greatest crises of our
time' and said it was an 'inflection point' similar to the Vietnam War. Biden's brief video message to graduates was
released by the White House under his @POTUS address as the coronavirus pandemic has put a dent in commencement
ceremonies. Comparing today's students to those who graduated during the era of the civil rights and anti-war protest
movements, Biden encouraged them to seize the moment to tackle climate change and systemic racism which he described as one
of 'the great crises of our time'.
America
First Legal Scores Victory, Biden Administration Cancels Race-Based COVID Relief Fund. Stephen Miller organized
the America-First Legal group to challenge unconstitutional rules and laws initiated by Democrats in congress and the JoeBama

race-based rules for COVID relief funding.
Crazed
Squad Member Rashida Tlaib Gets Heated After Questioning Bank Execs On 'Environmental Racism'. Rep. Rashida
Tlaib of Michigan's 13th congressional district, is a close political ally of socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez who constantly
pushes for a massive multi-trillion 'Green New Deal.' Tlaib's bank questioning appears to be a precursor to introducing
regulation to micromanage which companies get loans. "Are you familiar with the term environmental racism?" Tlaib went
around asking different bank executives from Chase Bank, Citigroup, Bank of America, Morgan Stanley and Well Fargo. The
Michigan representative became frustrated after she learned that most of the executives did not know what environmental racism
was or very familiar with it.
Biden's
divisive and false Tulsa speech. The 100th anniversary of the Tulsa Massacre, in which black residents were
murdered in bloody riots, was an opportunity for Joe Biden to be the uniter he promised to be. Instead the president
gave a speech with more partisan ire than lofty ideas; more condemnation of America than belief in it. The horror of
Tulsa, where at least 39 died and likely many more as whites burned down "Black Wall Street," is a too-often forgotten
dark chapter of our history, and it's right to highlight it. But Biden suggested that the nation hasn't come very far
in the past century, and diminished the tragedy by pretending today's voting laws are somehow equivalent. He accused
Republicans seeking to secure election integrity of being "simply un-American," and engaging in a "tireless assault on the
right to vote," an "unprecedented assault on our democracy."
Biden
Administration's Blatant Institutional Racism Gets Rebuke From Sixth Circuit. Last week, while the press
drooled over the president's ice cream selection, the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals in Vitolo v. Guzman
declared unconstitutional the Biden administration's race-based approach to distributing COVID-relief funds. While
Vitolo only addressed the race- and sex-based reverse discrimination in the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, the
precedent could prove fatal to many other federal and state statutes, regulations, or practices, leaving the Biden
administration with a difficult choice: accept defeat in Vitolo and risk a domino effect, or appeal and face an even more
unpalatable decision from a newly comprised Supreme Court. In passing the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA),
Congress created a $28.6 billion fund for grants to restaurants impacted by the "uncertainty of current economic conditions."
But rather than provide Americans access to these funds equally, Congress expressly mandated race- and sex-based discrimination
in doling out the money.
Breaking:
6th Circuit Issues Stinging Rejection of Biden's Race-Based 'American Rescue Plan'. The Biden administration
has sought to racialize the COVID-19 pandemic response, including a restaurant aid program within the American Rescue
Plan. A judge just ruled that isn't going to fly. The ruling comes by way of the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals
in the case Antonio Vittolo vs. Isabella Casillas Guzman. Guzman's lawsuit argued that white men are being
'pushed to the back of the line' for aid in the coronavirus relief program. The lawsuit was directed at U.S. Small
Business Association Administrator Isabella Casillas Guzman by Antonio Vitolo, who is the owner of Jake's Bar and Grill in
Harriman, Tennessee. A majority 2-1 decision found that Biden's race-based litmus test for aid is not legal.
"This case is about whether the government can allocate limited coronavirus relief funds based on the race and sex of the
applicants," Judge Thapar ruled. "We hold that it cannot."
Biden's
overtly anti-white COVID rescue plan won't survive in court. Team Biden is poised to hand out billions of
dollars to what it misleadingly labels "socially disadvantaged" farmers, restaurateurs and other business owners hurt by the
lockdowns. The money will start flowing to them in early June — provided they don't have white skin.
Biden's American Rescue Plan defines "socially disadvantaged" based on skin color and ancestry, not the hardships faced by an
individual. Blacks, American Indians, Alaskan Natives, Hispanics and Pacific Islanders are included. One group is
excluded: whites. Fortunately, the new law's anti-white provisions are facing a challenge in court, and the
challengers are likely to win. The US Constitution forbids discrimination based on race — period.
Five
reasons not to be optimistic about America's future. [Scroll down] This time it is white Americans who
are being marginalized. Thanks to the adoption of critical race theory in our schools, children are being brainwashed
to believe that that all blacks are oppressed and all whites are oppressors. White kids are taught that they should be
ashamed of their race. In other words, we have regressed to a point where people once again are being judged by the
color of their skin. All "white" values are being attacked, including meritocracy, the work ethic, and even
mathematics — which has been labeled racist. The latest symptom of this sickness is the statement by Mayor
Lori Lightfoot of Chicago that she will not grant interviews to white reporters. Can America survive this
insanity? The Left's drive for "equity" means that equality of opportunity is no longer good enough. Instead, the
goal is equality of outcome, which can never be accomplished without control by a coercive centralized authority.
Amazon
Agitprop and American Ambivalence. [Scroll down] Trump supporters — whether public officials
or private citizens — are often belittled and parodied as dog-whistling racists despite President Trump gaining
more votes than any incumbent running for re-election and the highest share of nonwhite votes for any Republican since 1960.
Much like the caricatures in Borat's films, it quashes any attempt at reaching consensus by delegitimizing unwanted
beliefs. Moreover, it elevates the seedier side of journalism by never letting the facts stand in the way of a good
story. A cringeworthy example comes from Chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot. She offered an official declaration that
she will not grant one-on-one interviews to white journalists. Were the roles reversed, it would be national
news. As it is, one must frequent conservative news outlets to even learn of the story. Like the multitude of
Cohen's references via Borat, patriotic Americans mocked as racists are, in fact, being treated with racism.
'Equity'
is just racial discrimination by another name. Since entering the White House, Joe Biden and his fellow
Democrats have talked incessantly about racial 'equity'. On his first day in office, in fact, Biden signed an Executive
Order on 'Advancing Racial Equity'. For those not paying close attention, it is possible to think that this notion of
equity is synonymous with equality. But it is becoming clearer by the day that equity means the opposite of equal
treatment and opportunity — it's a new form of racial discrimination.
Democrat
Left's Critical Race Theory Preaches Black Failure. Black Lives Matter, the "diversity" police, and other
"systemic racism"-mongers relentlessly claim that white privilege and white supremacy blockade black success. Blacks
think, "Yes, we can." The Democrat left replies: "No, you can't." Last June, Seattle staged something called
Interrupting Internalized Racial Superiority and Whiteness. This segregated brainwashing program for white municipal
workers accused them of rendering people of color "unable to imagine a way forward that comes from a place of humanity and
empowerment." So, blacks are paralyzed victims, as helpless as butterflies ensnared in a tarantula's web of white
racism. This frightful fantasy is concocted to leave blacks cold and scared — all the better to swaddle them
in the warm, loving arms of the left.
This
is the Kind of News That Would Drive the MSM Into a Frenzy for 24-48 Hrs During Last Administration. A federal
judge in Texas last week blocked the Biden administration race obsessed SJW appointees from prioritizing grants in a COVID
restaurant relief program by race or gender. At issue is the fact the Biden Small Business Administration is
prioritizing restaurants that are owned and controlled by women, veterans, and people THEY deem as "socially and economically
disadvantaged." The policy actively excludes entire classes of Americans not mentioned in the "priority" group (White
Folks and Asians) who are also suffering significant financial losses caused by the pandemic. In the plaintiff's suit,
[...] it is stated: "The Small Business Administration lurches America dangerously backward, reversing the clock on
American progress, and violating our most sacred and revered principles by actively and invidiously discriminating against
American citizens solely based upon their race and sex. This is illegal, it is unconstitutional, it is wrong, and it
must stop."
President
Biden to host George Floyd's family at White House. President Joe Biden will host George Floyd's family at the
White House Tuesday to mark the first anniversary of his death at the hands of a white Minneapolis police officer, White
House officials confirmed Friday evening [5/21/2021]. Earlier in the day, White House press secretary Jen Psaki said the
president would mark the anniversary of Floyd's death, but offered no further details on his plans. [...] [Former Minneapolis
Police officer Derek] Chauvin was convicted last month on multiple charges stemming from Floyd's death.
The Editor says...
If Mr. Chauvin gets a new trial, based on jury misconduct (or anything else), wouldn't Mr. Biden's grandstanding
jeopardize the fairness of that trial?
Illegal
immigration: A masterstroke in race-baiting. Our country is being fiercely attacked from within by the
Marxist mob movement. There are several areas of our society it is assaulting to overthrow our constitutional
government. The Democrats in Congress are strongly promoting an open border policy. They understand that large
influxes of illegal aliens could greatly affect the voting outcome of elections. It also would provide for slave labor
for companies, while at the same time lowering the standard of living for the American worker. The catastrophe at our
southwest border with the illegal invasion is immediately eliminating our sovereignty as a nation. We cannot be a free
and independent country without enforceable borders. The Marxists from the White House to the halls of Congress care
nothing about what this is doing to our country. The only thing they are concerned about is obtaining their communist
goals at the expense of our nation.
PA
Governor Sends Notice To All State Employees Suggesting Cops Are Racist Killers. The Pennsylvania state
troopers' union has demanded an apology from Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf for perpetuating the false narrative that law
enforcement officers are racist murderers. Wolf included his anti-police views in a letter he issued to all state
employees regarding the Juneteenth state holiday on June 19, WHTM reported. The governor told state workers they would
be getting the day off on June 18 in observance of the Juneteenth holiday, which falls on a Saturday this year, WHTM reported.
White
House press secretary Jen Psaki defends teaching about systemic racism at American colleges and universities.
White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki defended American colleges and universities teaching theories of systemic racism as
'responsible' on Thursday as she denied allegations that it amounted to 'liberal indoctrination.' The issue has become
one of the frontline skirmishes in the country's culture wars in the wake of last year's Black Lives Matter protests.
Conservatives allege that students are being taught a warped version of American history that claims the impact of slavery
remains present throughout society.
Six
Insane and Idiotic Positions by Democrats, and How Republicans Should Respond. Race is the preeminent issue of
the political left. Critical Race Theory, the 1619 Project, H.R. 1, woke corporate trainings, media coverage, and a
host of other social justice agendas have been forceful and intentionally inserted into the daily lives and activities of
nearly all Americans. Kids are exposed to the harmful lies as soon as they enter the education system. The irony
in all of their efforts is that while they proclaim whiteness as being the pinnacle of power, there is absolutely no power in
speaking up or speaking out on behalf of whiteness. White pride? Racist and supremacist. Black pride?
Beautiful. White men asking for merit to be the order of the day? Racist and supremacist. Blacks asking for
affirmative action and other governmental preferences? Necessary. Hell, women-abusing, drug-using, prison-serving
black losers are revered in society for simply having the audacity to resist lawful arrests. But the claim goes that
white privilege is everywhere.
Black
Lives Matter Plaza in D.C. to become permanent art installation: Mayor Bowser. Black Lives Matter Plaza
near the White House in Washington will soon became a permanent art installation, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser stated this week,
nearly a year since it first came to fruition. Ms. Bowser, a Democrat, told The Washington Post on Thursday [5/6/2021]
that efforts are underway to enhance the two-block stretch of 16th Street NW that she designated as Black Lives Matter Plaza last
June. "In fact, right now we're undergoing a process to make the installation more permanent with lighting and landscaping
and all the things that you expect in an iconic art installation," said Ms. Bowser.
The
Left's Systemic Exploitation of Race. Democrats and the left bring up race every five minutes to demonize
Republicans and profit politically. It is nothing more than a raw power grab. Indeed, if you want to talk about
shameful behavior on race, look no further than the liberal politicians and the media who smear half the country as racists
daily because of their views on economic, political and cultural issues. If you champion American sovereignty, advocate
border control, support the indispensability of law enforcement, promote our free market economy and cherish America's
founding principles — and if your skin happens to be white (unless you're a progressive) — you are
presumptively racist.
Chicago's
Feel Good Hypocrisy: Renaming Lake Shore Drive. Have you heard? Chicago is set to rename its
legendary Lake Shore Drive to DuSable Drive, in honor of Jean Baptiste Point duSable. DuSable, an African American, is
credited with being Chicago's first permanent settler. The move, of course, reflects feel good, do-nothing hypocrisy at
its worst. For starters, DuSable no more "founded" Chicago than Christopher Columbus "discovered" America. In
both cases Native Americans were here long before. In fact, "Chicago" is an Indian word that means — I kid
you not — stinky onion. Also, neither DuSable nor Columbus stuck around after their "discoveries." In
DuSable's case, he eventually high-tailed it for Missouri.
Biden's
restaurant rescue plan blatantly discriminates against White males. White males go to the back of the line in
applying for funds to rescue their bars, restaurants and other venues eligible for federal relief for the impact of the
coronavirus lockdown. This violates the equal protection under the law requirements of the United States Constitution,
but is nonetheless ongoing right now. [...] This ought to, and probably will be, challenged in court. But unless the
plaintiffs are able to find a judge willing to issue a restraining order, their businesses may well fold and vanish before
the case is finally adjudicated. And if victory is obtained, what then? The advantaged-disadvantaged minority
owners who got preference will not be forced to pay back their funds. The White males who lost their businesses will
not be able to keep them alive — too late for that. So, what is the goal of Biden's plan?
Kansas
Legislature Overrides Governor's Veto. Kansas' legislature has just overridden its governor's veto and put into
law a set of election reforms similar to those that just weeks ago Joe Biden declared were "Jim Crow on steroids."
Biden would know these laws are nothing like Jim Crow, if he still had all his mental faculties, because he was around for
Jim Crow. Biden happily cavorted with segregationist Democrats when it suited him. And Jim Crow was a Democrat
policy. Biden called slammed Georgia a month ago, and Coke, MLB, American, and Delta Airlines duly lined up with Biden
and his shrill supporters — many of whom, like Stacey Abrams, can't actually win elections. Their power is
mostly on social media and as any real PR pro will tell you, much of what you see on social media isn't real. MLB moved
the All-Star Game from majority black Atlanta to very white Denver in the name of social justice, or something.
Following Biden is a fool's game and has been for going on 50 years. He's the guy who would have left Osama bin
Laden alive 10 years ago if it had been up to him.
The
Democrats in the Era of Joe Crow. The Democratic Party has always been a racist party. Any interested
person who has studied the internal workings of this duplicitous faction is aware of its racist history, its elitist
framework, its systemic arrogance, hypocrisy, and intellectual dishonesty — and, more disturbingly, of its
brightly lit scaffold of democratic pretensions. [...] Democrats have always reveled in their abiding fantasy of owning and
controlling entire populations of voters. There is a terrible motive in that urge to create properties of men and
women, to use them without justice in a massive vote-farming scheme; but Democratic strategists have lately rediscovered a
political advantage in dividing the families of mankind against one another according to the color of their skin —
of targeting and separating them into racial or ethnic groups, of stirring hatred into their spirit, of buying them with
promises, of feeding them with propaganda, and selling them into dependency to progressive overlords. It is called
"identity politics," and of all the evils that partisan interests have devised for usurpation and the ends of power, this
pure invention of tortured reasoning is the most dehumanizing, egregious, and corrupt.
Barack
Obama, Race, and Revolution. For nearly 50 years, until 2009, the United States experienced enormous progress
in race relations. Thanks to the efforts of individual citizens in their communities and not the nation's ruling elites
and patronizing liberals, this country was well on its way to racial healing. In 2008 only 18% of all Americans were
greatly concerned or worried about the state of race relations in the country. By 2017 that number had skyrocketed to
45%. Further, in 2008 66% of Americans thought race relations were good; by 2016, 63% thought race relation were
bad. The common denominator in this freefall and primary instigator of the current societal chaos and national
uncertainty: Barack Obama. As President and a man of African descent, Barack Obama was in a position to
permanently mend fences and end the exploitation of racial politics bubbling beneath the surface. [...] However, true to his
Marxist upbringing and indoctrination in Critical Race Theory, he created and exploited racial tension for political
objectives and monetary gain for him and his fellow travelers. Barack Obama and virtually all of his black
and white collaborators on the left view the African American population as both useful pawns in their insatiable quest for
self-aggrandizement, financial benefit and political power, as well as helpless minions to be paraded about and bought off
whenever convenient to the overriding political, societal or self-serving cause.
Biden's
First Hundred Days: A Failing Report Card. Biden has taken the poison of identity politics to an
extreme. Almost every presidential appointment has been made based on the appointee's race, ethnicity, sex, or
sexuality, not the appointee's being the most highly qualified for the position. He has reinstated the Critical Race
Theory inspired, and thus racist, ideological training in the federal government. (CRT divides humanity into oppressor races
and oppressed races and revives the wicked ancient notion of blood guilt.) He signed a law that gives loan forgiveness to
Black farmers but not White farmers. Biden has abetted the vicious lie that there is an epidemic of police violence
against Blacks, leading most Blacks and many Whites to believe that Blacks are more likely to die at the hands of the police
than in automobile accidents, whereas the facts show that the latter is ten times more likely than the former, and that
police killings are statistically quite rare and show no racial skew. And Biden continues publicly to indict the U.S.
as plagued by systemic racism and White supremacy, despite offering no bill of particulars to back up that indictment
(because there are no such particulars).
Growing
number of black leaders embrace voter ID, reject Biden's Jim Crow claims. Mark Robinson knows a thing or two about
the political appeal of voter ID. After all, he became North Carolina's first ever African-American lieutenant governor
last November running as a Republican who vowed to restore voter identification for the state's elections. And he won, even as
the GOP's top of the ticket fell to Democratic Gov. Roy Cooper. So Robinson chafes when he hears national Democrats like Joe Biden
and Stacey Abrams claim that asking for an ID to vote is as disenfranchising as the voter suppression tactics of the Jim Crow era.
A Great New Idea for Reducing
Police Shootings. [Scroll down] The Left has absolutely no real problems it can find in today's America,
so it fabricates new ones that do not exist: Systemic racism. White privilege. A new falsified history
called "The 1619 Project," to be taught to children instead of such toxicities as cursive writing and Dr. Seuss.
They fabricate "systemic racism." They start canceling conservative professors, as though students' minds will be
broadened in an echo chamber where they do not get challenged with a single antithesis in the five or six years they vegetate
for their undergraduate degrees. The Left changes school curricula to replace reading, writing, and arithmetic with
critical race theory and gender-fluidity studies. Faced with a single academic sanctuary from the madness —
the final redoubt for normalcy in "STEM" courses in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics — they now
advance woke math, where precise accuracy no longer will exist. Thus, 8+6 = 14 ... but that is only
"your truth." By contrast, "my truth" is that 8+6 = 3. If you insist otherwise,
you are manifesting White privilege. And, of course, racism.
Maybe they should just carry firecrackers.
Black
Caucus chair Rep. Joyce Beatty: Police could 'shoot in the air' to stop would-be killers. The Chair
of the Congressional Black Caucus has joined hordes of untrained armchair quarterbacks, in order to render her opinion on
police procedure after the officer-involved shooting of Ma'Khia Bryant. In Columbus, Ohio on April 20, 2021, Officer
Nicholas Reardon had to make a split second decision to intervene as Ma'Khia Bryant rushed toward her potential victim with a
knife, after ignoring lawful orders to "get down." Reardon fired his pistol, striking Bryant and ending the attack.
Aid was rendered at the scene, but Bryant was later pronounced dead at a nearby hospital.
The Editor says...
Shooting the gun out of the bad guy's hand only works on re-runs of The Lone Ranger. Similarly, unlocking a door by shooting
the doorknob only works on re-runs of Hawaii Five-O and Perry Mason. Anybody who thinks shooting into the air would
stop a violent criminal in his or her tracks has lost sight of reality: Such an action would only be undertaken in a black
neighborhood, but nobody there would notice the sound of a few extra gunshots, much like the way they don't notice when a cop
says, "Drop your weapon!"
The
left's systemic exploitation of race. You'd have to be blind and deaf to deny that this tactic is working for
the left politically and that it has caused great harm. Democrats and the left bring up race every five minutes to
demonize Republicans and profit politically. It is nothing more than a raw power grab. Indeed, if you want to
talk about shameful behavior on race, look no further than the liberal politicians and the media who smear half the country
as racists daily because of their views on economic, political and cultural issues. If you champion American
sovereignty, advocate border control, support the indispensability of law enforcement, promote our free market economy and
cherish America's founding principles — and if your skin happens to be white (unless you're a
progressive) — you are presumptively racist.
Poll
Shows After Coke CEO Poured on Outrage at Georgia Election Law, Public Support Goes Flat. Mere weeks after
going public with stern words about the new election law in Georgia, Coca-Cola has become far more muted in its corporate
bellowing. Now, we know why. A new poll has come out to show more than pushback from select citizens has taken
place; there is widespread rejection of the company's bold pronouncement, becoming just the latest in a growing list of
companies who have suffered self-imposed, negative PR. It has been nothing less than a consistent failure with all of
the various business entities which rose up in protest of the Georgia election law. Major League Baseball pulled its
All-Star Game in the name of racial support, only to place the game in lily-white Denver. Delta Airlines had its CEO
mouthing off in opposition of the law, only to have it exposed that he was present during the crafting of the bill.
Heated
argument erupts after Rep. Mondaire Jones calls GOP objections to DC statehood 'racist trash'. GOP House
members on Thursday [4/22/2021] erupted in heated opposition after Rep. Mondaire Jones (D-N.Y.) condemned their
objections to Washington, D.C., statehood as "racist trash" during a speech on the chamber floor. "I have had enough of
my colleagues' racist insinuations that somehow the people of Washington D.C. are incapable or even unworthy of our
democracy," Jones, a progressive first-term lawmaker, said. [Tweet] His comments triggered an uproar from Republicans
on the floor. "The truth is there is no good faith argument for disenfranchising 700,000 people, most of whom are
people of color," Jones continued as GOP lawmakers called for a point of order. Rep. Andy Harris (R-Md.) asked for
Jones to agree to have his remarks stricken from the congressional record.
Why
Tlaib, Pressley, & Ocasio-Cortez Will Get More Kids Killed. Following the recent shooting deaths of Daunte
Wright and Adam Toledo, the disproportionate loudmouths in Congress, commonly referred to as "the Squad" repeated their
oft-stated absurdity that police are killing unarmed black men and that America would be better off without them. It's
important to note that none of them offered to give up their own police protections made available to them at the
Capitol. The woke mobs on social media immediately began to echo their calls anew as well. Within seconds
"justice for Wright/Toledo" began to flood uninformed purveyors on Twitter and Instagram. The newer messaging
phenomenon in the era of critical race theory garbage is that modern police organizations are an extension of southern
plantation legacies where former slaves were hunted down. Despite the fact that the idea of lawful justice began in
Biblical times these same absurdities get repeated over and over.
Al Sharpton
leads impassioned funeral service for Daunte Wright. On Thursday, as the family of the 20-year-old man shot
dead 10 days ago by police held a funeral service, they sought to highlight the different strands of a life cut woefully
short — his love of basketball, his position as a beloved sibling, a doting father, and a son whose smile was
"worth a million dollars". Yet, during a service at times markedly political and imbued with demands for racial justice,
his life — and his fatal shooting after a traffic stop — was set against the backdrop of others who had
lost their lives at the hands of the police: George Floyd, Jamar Clark, Philando Castile and Breonna Taylor.

Critical Race Theory: What
It Is and How to Fight It. Critical race theory is fast becoming America's new institutional orthodoxy.
Yet most Americans have never heard of it — and of those who have, many don't understand it. It's time for
this to change. We need to know what it is so we can know how to fight it. In explaining critical race theory, it
helps to begin with a brief history of Marxism. Originally, the Marxist Left built its political program on the theory
of class conflict. Marx believed that the primary characteristic of industrial societies was the imbalance of power
between capitalists and workers. The solution to that imbalance, according to Marx, was revolution: the workers
would eventually gain consciousness of their plight, seize the means of production, overthrow the capitalist class, and usher
in a new socialist society. During the 20th century, a number of regimes underwent Marxist-style revolutions, and each
ended in disaster. Socialist governments in the Soviet Union, China, Cambodia, Cuba, and elsewhere racked up a body
count of nearly 100 million of their own people. They are remembered for their gulags, show trials, executions, and
mass starvations. In practice, Marx's ideas unleashed man's darkest brutalities.
We
are witnessing the Democrats' final revenge for losing the Civil War. Since the start of LBJ's "Great Society"
and the welfare state, Democrats have been breaking American Blacks in the same way Petruchio broke Katherine. If one
were to pay attention solely to the rhetoric, there can be no greater love than that which leftists in politics, the media,
academia, and the corporate world have for Blacks. The results of this abundant affection have been devastating.
"Hands up, don't shoot." "I can't breathe." "I'm a crazy white lady screaming at cops on behalf of Black
people." "Math is racist." "Ambition is racist." "The English language is racist." "Whites are born
racist." "Melanin makes people superior." (That last is a paraphrase of Kristen Clarke, Biden's nominee to head
the equal rights division of the Justice Department.) Lower academic standards. Separate dorms. Separate
dining halls. Critical Race Theory. White privilege. Ibram X. Kendi bestsellers. BLM.

White
House links shooting of knife-wielding Ohio teen to 'police violence,' 'systemic racism'. The White House
weighed in Wednesday on the police shooting of a knife-wielding teenage girl as she attacked another girl in Columbus, Ohio,
by connecting the incident to "police violence" in minority communities and the death of George Floyd. White House
press secretary Jen Psaki offered sympathy to friends and family over the Tuesday death of 16-year-old Ma'Khia Bryant,
calling it "tragic" and saying that "She was a child," before tying the shooting to race. "We know that police violence
disproportionately impacts Black and Latino people in communities, and that Black women and girls, like Black men and boys,
experience higher rates of police violence," Ms. Psaki said.
Jen
Psaki baselessly and disgracefully racialized the killing in Columbus. "Believe your own eyes" —
that was the prosecutor's final admonition to the jury in the Derek Chauvin trial. And indeed, the evidence of their
own eyes was likely the reason the jury members didn't accept the defense's case that there was "reasonable doubt" about
Chauvin's guilt. Instead, they convicted him on all charges. The same admonition should be governing the public
response to the horrible event in Columbus, Ohio, that transpired just as the Chauvin verdict was being announced. But
it isn't. No less than the press secretary of the president of the United States went before the public Wednesday and
all but explicitly suggested what had happened in Ohio was an illegitimate, racist police killing. Believe your own
eyes, Jen Psaki. Watch the body-cam footage that shows 16-year-old Ma'Khia Bryant charging first one fellow
teenager, then a second. The second girl was slammed against a car, at which point Bryant began to swing her right
arm — with a knife in her hand.
Biden's
statement following the Chauvin verdict was disgraceful. [Scroll down] Inciting racial hatred is central
to this third act and Biden, who studied at the feet of the hate-filled White segregationists in the early 1970s, is proving
to be an adept hate-filled Black segregationist in the 2020s. From his first day in office, Biden's focus on "equity"
has had nothing to do with the Constitution's promise that all Americans are entitled to equal treatment under the law.
Instead, Biden is willing to use the full force of the federal government to resegregate America. If one understands
Biden's background and his decades of hate-filled racial radicalism as a path to power, it's easy to understand the
slanderously anti-American statement he made after a jury that had been intimidated in every way possible found Derek Chauvin
guilty of a variety of murder charges against a lifelong, often violent, felon in the process of dying from a massive
overdose of illegal drugs. Here are just the libels that Biden uttered against America and Americans in the first two
minutes of his statement: [...]
Biden
and Xi Think the Constitution Is Racist. Yesterday [4/16/2021] an intrepid reporter asked the insufferable Jen
Psaki about U.N. Ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield's assertion that America's founding documents are white
supremacist. Doesn't that echo Chinese Communist propaganda, as in the recent diplomatic debacle in Anchorage?
Does Joe Biden intend to fire Thomas-Greenfield? And, the most salient question: does Biden share her contempt for
America's founding documents, i.e., the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence? It takes some doing, but the
answer to that last question is Yes: [Tweet] I found it revealing that Psaki's first words were to the effect that
Thomas-Greenfield is a black woman. So how can anyone disagree with or criticize her?
The
Early Line on the Next Election. There is something strange about the behavior of Biden and the Democrats that
can be best explained by a combination of Progressive mania and panic that their power might well slip away from them unless
they lock it down by changing the rules in their favor and whipping up paranoia within key minority groups who are showing
signs of slipping away. Hence the relentless charges of racism. [...] The Democratic push to expand voting
participation might not be the slam dunk for their side that they think. Are minorities defecting from Democrats
because Democrats aren't reminding them of racism enough?
Media pushes false
narrative of racism. The riots that have erupted after the killing of Daunte Wright reinforce a familiar
pattern. This response is rooted not only in tragedy, but in a distorted perception of reality. Chelsea Handler,
for example, suggested that people of color have a "50-50" chance of being shot by police. This is a complete
distortion, but fits a broader pattern. My latest report for the Manhattan Institute, based on multiple surveys, shows
that being exposed to news and social media, having left-wing views on race, and being anxious or depressed explains a great
deal of how much racism a person perceives. And when someone says racism in America has risen, this perception is
almost entirely a figment of their imagination. In fact, racist attitudes and behaviors have been declining for decades.
Look who's crawling out of the woodwork:

Pelosi
Hijacks Everything for Her Agenda — Even the Holocaust. One would expect the commemoration of
something as tragic and sacred as the Holocaust be done in a respectful manner and not be manipulated for political
goals. Such was not the case this week with Nancy Pelosi's statement sent out on Holocaust Remembrance Day; known in
Israel as Yom Ha'Shoah. Instead, she exploited the murder of six million Jews by Hitler and his regime into a
manifesto of Democrat false talking points and the demonization of millions of Americans associated with conservatism and who
voted for President Trump. It was sacrilege and shameful.
The Voter Suppression Swindle.
The sound and fury with which the Democrats, the legacy media, and virtue-signaling CEOs greeted Georgia's new election
integrity statute has inevitably included portentous accusations of voter suppression. Peach State Republicans, we are
told, are part of a multi-state GOP conspiracy to disfranchise minority voters by restricting ballot access. The plot
involves such horrors as requiring everyone to provide identification when they vote and compelling them to cast ballots in
their own precincts. Combined with such outrages as fixed time frames for returning mail-in votes, coherent rules for
securing ballot drop boxes, and removal of dead people from voter rolls, these laws allegedly portend the return of Jim
Crow. The Jim Crow canard, however, doesn't work for this particular conspiracy theory.
Biden's
Team of Racists and Anti-Semites: An Anti-American Coalition in the Heart of the White House. What

revolutionary proclamation that all men are created equal and have a God given right to liberty. America began
implementing this right in 1787, the first year of its existence, with the enactment of the Northwest Ordinance, outlawing
slavery in a territory the size of the original 13 colonies. Within twenty years slavery was abolished in all the
northern states. As for the "original sin" of enslaving the black Africans brought to this country, that properly is
the achievement of the Africans themselves who then sold their brothers and sisters to Europeans at slave auctions in Ghana
and Benin. All forms of institutional and systemic racism including Jim Crow were outlawed by the Civil Rights Act of
1964. In one of his first statements as president Biden claimed that "systemic racism" has been built into every aspect of
our system." This is a bald-faced lie. The opposite is the truth.
Shakedown:
'Squad'
member Ayanna Pressley: You 'can't be anti-racist' if you don't want to cancel student debt.
"Squad"-member Rep. Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., claimed that a person is unable to be "anti-racist" unless they support
cancelling student debt. In a tweet published on Monday, Pressley — one of the members of the "Squad"
alongside Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., and Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich. — shared
an article by the Washington Post that detailed the stories of people across America with student debts. Alongside the
article, Pressley claimed that a person cannot stand against racism if they don't support canceling student debt. "You
can't be anti-racist if you're anti student debt cancellation," Pressley wrote.
Dems
Endorse Anti-Christian SPLC Report: 'It's Time We Extinguish All Bigoted Beliefs'. House and Senate Democrats
endorsed the Southern Poverty Law Center's (SPLC) "Year in Hate" report that brands mainstream conservative and Christian
nonprofits "hate groups" and plots them on a map with the Ku Klux Klan. The Democrats did not respond to longstanding
criticisms of the SPLC regarding its racial discrimination and sexual harassment scandal or the fact that former SPLC
employees have described the "hate" accusations as a "highly profitable scam."
Biden
'Environmental Justice' Appointees Equate Energy Production, Fossil Fuels With Racism. In February, Beverly
Wright linked the legacy of slavery and the Jim Crow era with energy development. In March, President Joe Biden
appointed Wright to his White House Environmental Justice Advisory Council. Wright, the founder of the Deep South
Center for Environmental Justice, is joined on the council by Jade Begay of the Indigenous Environmental Network, who
co-wrote a 2018 op-ed in EcoWatch contending that climate change is "colonialism" and "cultural genocide." Biden has
named several activists that tie energy development to racial bigotry to the Environmental Justice Advisory Council.
Members
Of Biden's 'Environmental Justice' Advisory Council Have History Of Radicalism, Claiming Fossil Fuels Are
Racist. At the end of last month, the Biden administration announced the members of the White House
Environmental Justice Advisory Council, which would "provide advice and recommendations to the Chair of the Council on
Environmental Quality (CEQ) and the White House Environmental Justice Interagency Council on how to address current and
historic environmental injustices." Twenty-six people were named to the council, but at least four of them have made
radical statements connecting fossil fuels to racism. Susana Almanza, for example, is the director of People Organized
in Defense of Earth and Her Resources (PODER), an environmental justice organization based in Austin, Texas. Hilltop
Views, the student news website of St. Edward's University, profiled Almanza, noting that she has a Che Guevara poster
in her office and said that her organization is "fighting big monsters; they're not little ones," referring to oil companies.
Biden
seeks funding to probe white supremacist beliefs at immigration agencies. President Joe Biden called for
funding to investigate complaints of white supremacist beliefs at U.S. immigration enforcement agencies in his first budget
request to Congress on Friday [4/9/2021], but officials offered no explanation for what prompted his request.
End Woke Corporate
Extortion. In the maelstrom spurred by lies about Georgia's voting law, woke corporations again endeavored
zealously to virtue signal for the Left. Echoing and acting upon the Left's deliberate disinformation
campaign — including, notably, President Biden's infamous "Jim Crow on steroids" doggerel — Coke,
Delta, Major League Baseball, and sundry others excoriated the Peach State's new statutory liberalization of voting
procedures. In an interesting twist, these "free-market" entities, which are often threatened with boycotts from the
Left, demanded the cancellation of an entire state. Ostensibly, this spasm of woke corporate extortion was largely
wrought by the requirement for voter ID. Curiously, this is a policy prescription supported by the overwhelming majority
of Americans, including people of color. On its face, this woke tirade makes no economic sense. So why do
corporations feel empowered to denounce, extort, and defy duly elected legislatures and the sovereign citizens who elected
them — especially since they fully realize they are alienating half the country (i.e., potential and current
customers) by allying themselves with the Left to bully state legislatures?
Pete
Buttigieg: Racism is 'physically built into' country's highways. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg
suggested in a recent interview that racism is built into the country's highway system. "There is racism physically
built into some of our highways, and that's why the jobs plan has specifically committed to reconnect some of the communities
that were divided by these dollars," the former South Bend, Indiana, mayor told reporter April Ryan this week in an interview
discussing President Joe Biden's proposed $2 trillion infrastructure plan. Buttigieg explained that several major
highways in the United States negatively affect minority communities.
Once
again, Democrats are off to the racists. Once again the Democrats are off to the racists. Every time they
can't explain their position on some public policy issue, they accuse Republicans and conservatives of being racist.
Look no further than the state of Georgia. Almost two weeks ago, Gov. Brian Kemp signed SB 202 into law. It
was an election reform bill that Democrats effectively branded as "racist," "voter suppression" and "anti-civil rights."
The law expands early voting for primary and general elections, includes more voting on Saturdays and Sundays, and requires
voter ID. Only in the world of radical liberalism can more of an opportunity to do something be "suppression"; requiring
one to prove they are who they say they are as "racism"; and applying the same rules to everyone as "anti-civil rights."
Charles
Barkley: Politicians Fuel Hatred Between 'Whites And Blacks' To 'Keep Their Grasp' On 'Money And Power'.
During the "Final Four Show" on Saturday [4/3/2021], former NBA star and "Inside the NBA" analyst Charles Barkley said that
politicians intentionally fuel racial divides in order to "keep their grasp on money and power," and that the "system" is
designed to foster hatred and to "scramble the middle class." "Man, I think most white people and black people are great
people," Barkley said during CBS' coverage of Saturday's March Madness games. "I really believe that in my heart."
Barkley then continued to argue that our political system is set up to protect the power and wealth of those in government.
"But I think our system is set up where our politicians, whether they're Republicans or Democrats, are designed to make us not
like each other, so they can keep their grasp [on] money and power," Barkley said.
Branding
Georgia Election Law, Senate Filibuster 'Racist' Is Vile Tactic to Justify HR 1. President Joe Biden, his
fellow liberals, and his friends in the national news media are purposely — and cynically —
misrepresenting Georgia's new election reform law, and it's a key part of a far-reaching strategy that stretches well beyond
the borders of the Peach State. They are dishonestly attacking the Georgia legislation as a throwback to the Jim Crow
era, while simultaneously assailing the Senate filibuster as "racist" as well. Those are two vital elements of the
grand plan to ram the federal election-takeover legislation, HR 1, the euphemistically titled "For the People Act," through
Congress. The true intent of the legislation — and the road map to get it to Biden's desk — is to
weaken election security and to cement liberals' hold on power for decades.
When
Everybody Is a White Supremacist. For a long time, liberals have been accusing conservatives of being
conspiracy theorists. Say anything about Hunter Biden, and you're a conspiracy theorist. Urge Andrew Cuomo to
resign, and you're a conspiracy theorist. Now it's worse. Conservatives aren't just conspiracy theorists; they're
white supremacists. Like those who defend Georgia's voting reforms designed to protect the integrity of the
election. Or any person or business that lives or operates in Georgia. For the left, anyone associated with a
bill designed to prevent voter fraud, and so deny Democrats permanent power, is a white supremacist. Maybe that was the
point of Biden's attack on "extremism, white supremacy, domestic terrorism" in his inaugural address. Democrats are
seeing white supremacists everywhere they look — like the New Republic, which in 2017 suggested that Trump's
economic agenda of returning manufacturing jobs to America was "white supremacist." [...] The media worked overtime to
establish this idea in the minds of the public, and now they're using the same rhetoric to attack opponents of the Biden
administration.
Vermont
accused of discrimination for moving minorities to head of vaccine line. Vermont Gov. Phil Scott has come
under fire for a newly announced statewide vaccination protocol moving minorities to the head of the line based solely on
their race. The Republican governor announced Thursday that Black, Indigenous and people of color, known as BIPOC, may
now sign up to be vaccinated against COVID-19, two weeks before the state plans to make available vaccines to anyone over the
age of 16. "If you or anyone in your household identifies as Black, Indigenous, or a person of color (BIPOC), including
anyone with Abenaki or other First Nations heritage, all household members who are 16 years or older can sign up to get a
vaccine!" Mr. Scott tweeted.
Joe
Biden DOT Halts Texas Highway Project Using the Civil Rights Act. President Joe Biden's Department of
Transportation (DOT) has paused a highway widening project in Houston, Texas, citing Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964
as legal justification. In what could be a first for any administration in this context, the Biden administration is
using its federal powers to pause the Texas DOT plan to widen Interstate 45. The administration is doing this as a test
to address what it calls a history of "government-driven racial inequalities." This comes after complaints from local
activities during the federal DOT's intervention period. The proposed plan, known as the North Houston Highway
Improvement Project, is proposed to widen I-45 at three different sections.
Why the Left needs
'institutional racism'. The law of the instrument — or "Maslow's hammer", as it is sometimes
known — has become an indispensable tool for negotiating the current world. It holds, as Abraham Maslow said
in 1966, that "it is tempting, if the only tool you have is a hammer, to treat everything as if it were a nail". In
recent decades, this law has held firm nowhere so much as in the business of "race relations", where one hammer in particular
has been on very public display: the casual accusation of "racism". Allegations of racism have for decades been
among the most serious accusations that can be made against a person; likewise, since the publication of the Macpherson
report into the murder of Stephen Lawrence, an allegation of "institutional racism" has been the most serious accusation that
can be made against an organisation. With this in mind, it was perhaps inevitable that, by virtue of their potency,
such accusations would end up being wielded as a substitute for evidence. And so for years, to set up an investigation
into an institution on matters to do with race was to pre-ordain the outcome: the institution always had to be found guilty.
Awkward:
Jill Biden Wraps Up Cesar Chavez Day Speech by Butchering "Sí Se Puede". This was awkward. Jill
Biden traveled to Delano, California on Wednesday to celebrate Cesar Chavez's birthday. Cesar Chavez, a "hero" to
people in the labor movement, was an activist who fought for fair wages for farm workers. One aspect of Cesar Chavez's
activism that the Democrats don't like to talk about was his fierce opposition to illegal immigration.
Joe
Biden's Infrastructure Plan Focuses on 'Racial Equity'. President Joe Biden's $2.3 trillion infrastructure
plan, the so-called "American Jobs Plan," spends a great deal of space promising to address "racial equity." As
Breitbart News has explained, the term "equity" is not the same as "equality." Equity is prepared to sacrifice equality
before the law to benefit individuals claiming membership in groups deemed to suffer from historic disadvantages. Under
President Donald Trump, black unemployment and poverty rates reached record lows, and the gap between black and white
unemployment was the smallest ever, thanks to economic growth, Opportunity Zones, and immigration enforcement. Trump
achieved those landmarks without policies aimed at taxing the wealth of some Americans to redistribute it to others along
racial lines. However, Biden ran for president on a promise to "rip the roots of systemic racism out of this country."
The
10 Radical New Rules That Are Changing America. [#3] Racialism is now acceptable. We are defined first by
our ethnicity or religion, and only secondarily — if at all — by an American commonality. The
explicit exclusion of whites from college dorms, safe spaces, and federal aid programs is now noncontroversial. It is
unspoken payback for perceived past sins, or a type of "good" racism. Falsely being called a racist makes one more
guilty than falsely calling someone else a racist.
Biden's
list of judicial nominees leans heavily toward checking one identity box in particular. Identity politics looms
large in the list of judicial nominees released by the Biden White House today. Can you guess which identity box is
focused on like a laser beam on this list? It's black women. It is as though a call was sent out that only black
women will be considered for judicial nominations, with a particular focus on one who may be Biden's Supreme Court nominee,
should the opportunity arise. Anytime a Democrat begins talking about diversity and the historic nature of decisions,
you know what is coming. The Biden administration doesn't even bother to finesse its blatant sop to a demographic that
is responsible for Sleepy Joe's election. Joe Biden won the presidential election thanks to black Democrat women
voters. It began in South Carolina with Biden scoring the endorsement of Rep. James Clyburn, a Democrat powerhouse
in that state, and went from there. Black women organized support for Biden and got out the vote for him across the
country. Now it's payback time.
California
county funds welfare program that excludes whites and males. Something strange is going on out in Marin County,
California. The elected officials there have instituted a pilot program offering a universal basic income in the form
of a monthly stipend to a limited number of participants. That in and of itself isn't unique, as programs such as this
have been tested in other places, such as Stockton, California. A couple of aspects of this program, however, really
are unique. The most glaring among these is the fact that in order to qualify, participants have to be women. No
males need apply. On top of that, the program is not available to white women, but only to women of color.
Democrats
Call Filibuster Racist — But They Used It Over 300 Times Last Year. Democrats are desperate to end
the filibuster. They see this as the key to passing their far left agenda, and they're right. Without the
filibuster, Democrats would be able to pass pretty much whatever they want. So, in an effort to get rid of the
filibuster, they are calling it racist, which is ridiculous because Democrats used the filibuster over 300 times
last year.
'Cynical,
disgusting': AOC says her 2020 primary challenger was only picked because she's also Latina. AOC's beef with
MCC isn't over yet. New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is alleging that shadowy political forces handpicked
former news anchor Michelle Caruso-Cabrera to challenge her in last year's primary because of her "ethnicity" as part of a
"disgusting" attempt to confuse voters. Ocasio-Cortez made the blistering claim in a wide-ranging interview this week,
charging that "Wall Street" and other unspecified entities selected Caruso-Cabrera for the 2020 primary battle specifically
because she's "also a Latina, down to having a hyphenated last name." "It was just the most cynical, disgusting thing,"
Ocasio-Cortez said in the interview published by the Democratic Socialists of America's magazine.
Al
Sharpton threatens to accuse Manchin, Sinema of 'supporting racism' if they don't kill filibuster. Civil rights
leader and MSNBC host Al Sharpton threatened to accuse Sens. Joe Manchin of West Virginia and Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona
of "supporting racism" over their approval of the Senate filibuster. "The pressure that we are going to put on Sinema
and Manchin is calling [the filibuster] racist and saying that they are, in effect, supporting racism," Sharpton told
Politico. "Why would they be wedded to something that has those results? Their voters need to know that."
Sharpton is part of a larger push from the left to eliminate the filibuster in order to pass Democrats' election and voting
rights legislation known as S. 1.
For the Left,
Bigotry Is a Tool. The same sources decrying anti-Asian sentiment have spent years expressing anti-Asian animus
in the form of discriminatory college admissions standards: President Joe Biden's administration dropped a
discrimination case against Yale University just a month ago, clearly thanks to the administration's position that
affirmative action for black students outweighs Asian American success in a pure meritocracy. The same people blaming
"white supremacy" for anti-Asian hate crimes have militantly ignored the location of the crimes — largely major
metropolitan areas, with a large number of such crimes coming not from white Americans but from black Americans (a plurality
of overall violent crimes targeting Asian Americans, according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, were committed by black
Americans in 2018). The same establishment media sources blaming Trump for anti-Asian hate cheer on the active closing
of merit-based magnet schools in New York and San Francisco, thanks to those schools' disproportionate Asian American
attendance: Hannah-Jones tweeted last year that it was "disingenuous" to talk about "specialized high schools being
majority POC" (people of color) when referring to Asian Americans.
Charlottesville
mayor slams own city as racist, 'void of a moral compass'. The mayor of Charlottesville, Virginia, is defending
social media posts that slammed her own city as "rooted in racism" and compared it to a rapist. Mayor Nikuyah Walker,
who became Charlottesville's first Black female mayor in 2017, wrote a graphic comment on Facebook that she said got her
briefly suspended from the platform.
SPLC
Chief of Staff: 'The Southern Poverty Law Center Is Not Anti-Christian at All'. On Wednesday [3/24/2021], Lecia
Brooks, the chief of staff at the scandal-plagued far-left smear factory the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), insisted
that her organization "is not anti-Christian at all." Brooks attempted to dismiss claims that the SPLC brands mainstream
conservative and Christian organizations "hate groups," listing them on a map with the Ku Klux Klan due to leftist bias and
fundraising, not due to objective criteria. Brooks testified at a House Armed Services Committee hearing on "Extremism
in the Armed Forces." She cited the current and former members of the military who had been arrested in conjunction with
the Capitol riot and argued that the military must work to screen out extremists.
The
Democrat Party Has Declared War on America. In the six decades prior to the 1960's, racial segregation (i.e.,
racism) was an institutionalized government sanctioned reality. "Separate but equal" was the Supreme Court-endorsed
(Plessy v. Ferguson) directive of the land. Thus, segregation, which particularly benefited the Democratic Party
and trade unions, was sanctioned and promoted in varying degrees in a number of states. [...] The radicalized American Left
has seized upon the existence of those attitudes in a small number of Americans combined with disparities in income and
education to claim that "systemic or institutionalized racism" endures — when it does not. They do so to
a) intimidate the nonsensically guilt-ridden and oblivious segment of supposedly well-educated white America; b) incite
resentment and raise expectations among minority communities; c) to make certain racial animosity engulfs the country; and
d) to exploit the education establishment and corporations through the obligatory hiring of diversity bureaucracies. All
of which benefits the left in their quest to seize power in perpetuity. They are deviously convincing minorities and gullible
whites that white Americans are the only ethnic group in the history of mankind that has ever fueled racism. They are implicitly
leaving the impression with these groups that they will make certain the white populace pays the price for centuries of bigotry through
their so-called solutions to "systemic racism". Solutions which entail: 1) proclaiming that the white population will
be punished through reverse discrimination and reparations and 2) reinstating "separate but equal" under the banner of equity.
Sen.
Elizabeth Warren Calls Filibuster Racist After Filibustering Sen. Tim Scott's Police Bill.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., has called the Senate filibuster racist months after she herself filibustered police
reform legislation from Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C. Warren said the filibuster is both racist and shouldn't be permitted
in the Senate since it gives the minority veto power, Axios reported. The legislative filibuster, which dates back to
the 1800s, is a rule that requires 60 votes for most legislation to pass in the Senate. "The filibuster has deep roots
in racism, and it should not be permitted to serve that function, or to create a veto for the minority," Warren, who is
white, told Axios on Thursday. "In a democracy, it's majority rules." Warren added that the Founders didn't intend
for the filibuster to be implemented in Senate legislative procedure, Axios reported. Rather, it was designed to give
Southern states the ability to veto any anti-slavery or civil rights law they opposed, Warren said.
VP
Kamala Harris: 'Racism Is Real in America, and It Has Always Been'. Vice President Kamala Harris condemned the
U.S. as racist, xenophobic, and sexist in remarks at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, where she and President Joe Biden
traveled Friday to show solidarity with the Asian American community. [...] Eight people were murdered this week at three
massage parlors in Atlanta. Six of the victims were Asian. Though police said that there was no evidence of a
racial motive, advocates have claimed that the event is only the latest in a wave of anti-Asian-American hate crimes.
President
Biden Gets Reamed for Using Coronavirus to Virtue Signal and Race-Bait. You would think that the Democrats
would have learned by now that trying to pin the rise in anti-Asian hate crimes on conservatives was a failing
strategy. But it appears they are slow learners. In the latest in a series of attempts to virtue signal about
racism, President Joe Biden added to the chorus of leftist castratos singing their classic hit, "Everything Is Racist."
On Friday [3/19/2021], Biden tweeted a subtle race-baiting criticism at those who reference COVID-19's country of origin when
discussing the pandemic. "Words have consequences. It's called the coronavirus. Full stop," he
tweeted. Biden's tweet was met with a flurry of criticism from right-leaning Twitter users who took issue with his
attempt to link their description of the virus to the increase in Asian hate crimes. It was quite a show.
Joy
Reid And Julián Castro Say It's Racist To Ask White House About Failed Immigration Policies. MSNBC host
Joy Reid claimed that Fox News reporter Kristin Fisher is "afraid of these brown people" because Fisher asked Press Secretary
Jen Psaki whether the Biden administration plans to limit the number of abandoned foreign children accepted illegally into
the United States at the border. U.S. border officials are currently taking in approximately 565 such children per day,
and border facilities are up to 700 percent beyond capacity with children used by drug cartels as a lucrative ticket to U.S.
entry. The majority of girls drug cartels traffic over the border are raped on the journey, and untold numbers of these
trafficked minors die.
Farmers
blast Biden's divisive debt relief, doling out billions to non-whites. Sean Hannity's show on Monday
[3/15/2021] had an exclusive with reporter Sara Carter who interviewed farmers that are angry and frustrated at President
Biden over the COVID-19 relief package that awards billions in debt relief to farmers of color. The farmers called the
package "divisive." Biden signed the $1.9 trillion bill last week. The debt relief for farmers is premised on
race-based criteria which makes no sense to these farmers. "I'm sorry, but I was raised to not see color and not to see
race, but to see the character and the person's heart," Tennesse farmer Kelly Griggs said to Sara Carter. "That's how I
was raised, that's how the farming community sees each other."
A Kingdom of
the Anti-American Elite. Biden's defense secretary, General Lloyd Austin, tells us the greatest security threat
to the United States comes from internal subversive organizations, and it is implied that these are white supremacists.
Civil servants, like most American elementary, secondary, and post-secondary students, are taught the malignant critical race
theory and it is legitimizing the monstrous self-directed blood libel that America is based on racial exploitation and was
always a racist enterprise. There is not and has not been for many years the "systemic racism," as even Biden now
claims afflicts the country.
When
Minorities Vote GOP, the Media Smears Republicans as Racists. In just one week, the Washington Post
churned out two op-eds on the same theme, "The GOP is Now Just the Party of White Grievance" and "The Republican Party is
Making Jim Crow Segregationists Proud". The D.C. Democrat paper doesn't bother clarifying why Democrats from two
generations ago would be thrilled that 1 in 5 black men voted for President Trump. Ever since the election, the
media has been beating its narrative drum with one message. CNN howls that Republicans are the worst racists. The
New York Times insists they're even more racist than that. And MSNBC will counter that only white racists would
vote Republican.
It's
Not the Left's Place to Tell Us What Is and Isn't Offensive. Lately, I've been watching a few content creators
on various platforms like Tik Tok and YouTube, many of them black or Asian, who have been speaking out about the recent
decisions by businesses looking to crack down on the racism and sexism of the past by deleting episodes of television shows
or taking books out of circulation. Dr. Seuss is the most recent one who saw both Black and Asian content creators
making it clear that they don't find the depictions in these books offensive. Now we're seeing that the classic cartoon
character Speedy Gonzales is also on the cancel culture chopping block, with one Hispanic comedian speaking out against the
woke mob trying to bring it down.
Grocery
Store Chain Panders to Dems with 'Black-Owned' & 'LGBT-Owned' Labels on Food. If you watched Sunday night's NBA
All-Star Game, you quickly learned that Democrats are not about to let the issue of "racial inequality" die down anytime
soon. The way the left goes out of its way to pander and talk down to minorities is pretty incredible. What's
worse is that far too many people can't read between the lines.
This is probably the only mention of the British royal family on this web site.
Meghan
Markle 'didn't do any research' on the British royal family, exposing herself as a fool. Meghan Markle, it
seems, isn't much of a scholar. While much of the focus has been on her barbs accusing the British royal family of
abnormal interest in her baby's skin color and denying him a title and personal security protection supposedly because he is
black and they are racists, what's striking to me is how unprepared she was for the royal role she sought when she married
Prince Harry. And not just ignorant, but willfully ignorant, proud of her ignorance, flippantly stating she never did
"any research," as if that's something to be proud of.
Meghan
Markle reveals her true self in Oprah interview. If you had any doubts that Meghan Markle is a manipulative
piece of work, her bombshell Oprah interview Sunday night [3/7/2021] dumping on the British monarchy would set you
straight. Prince Harry's American wife accused his family of hateful racism against her baby, claimed they refused to
protect her and drove her to the point of suicide. She made the incendiary and implausible charge that when she was
pregnant with Archie, the royal family decreed that her unborn son would be denied the title of "prince" because her mixed
race meant he might have dark skin. You could make no more damaging charge about a monarchy that presides over a
commonwealth of nations made up of a majority of people of color. So this was the root of Megxit: Meghan
convinced herself that the royal family was denying her son a title — and the security protection that came with
it — because of his potentially dark skin.
Biden's
Administration Choices Are A Disgrace — Including Rachel Levine. In the Biden administration
everything is driven by identity politics. The nominee for Interior Secretary is someone who supports an anti-American
North Korean front group and is supported by the Communist Party of the USA (CPUSA). All that matters, though, is that
she is Native American.
Why
The Equality Act Is Bad Law. If you run a business, you realize that to stay out of court, you need evidence to
prove that you are not in fact discriminating, and the only way to do that is to hire someone from the protected group
in advance and to have a "woke" corporate policy in your advertising. That way, if someone does make a claim against
you, you can prove your innocence with the evidence of your prior obedience to the anti-discrimination policy. It is
like the old suburban riff, "Some of my best friends are from protected groups..." On the other hand, if you do not have
members of those protected groups on your staff and woke propaganda in your advertising, watch out! Your guilt is
assumed by your failure to provide proof of your innocence in advance, even if you had a legitimate reason for turning down a
specific job applicant. When the courts developed theories like "disparate impact," which says that if a protected
group is disadvantaged by an action, it is assumed to be discriminatory even if no such intent exists, the problem got even
worse. You now must show an intent toward anti-discrimination in advance.
Sheila
Jackson Lee: Republicans Engaged In 'War on Black People' Voting. Representative Sheila Jackson Lee
(D-TX) said Tuesday on CNN's "Tonight" that the Republican Party was engaged in "a war on black people as it relates to
voting." Anchor Don Lemon said, "The Supreme Court is hearing arguments today that could weaken voting rights in
Arizona. Major push nationwide to make it harder for people to vote. What does this mean particularly for black
voters?" Jackson Lee said, "Well, I think tragically we have not had this historic opposition to our rights since slavery,
during the Jim Crow days and of course the harshness of the 1960s. The tragedy of this is an entire party, the
Republican Party, is committed to voter suppression, committed to avoiding the opportunity of votes. Donald Trump laid
out he only wants one day for votes. They don't want opportunities for absentee ballot, extended voting, same-day
registration, all things that empower young people and people of color, African-Americans."
The Editor says...
If Election Day was a single day, as it once was and should be again, how would that inconvenience black voters more than any
others? The same restrictions would apply to everyone. How is that unfair?
SPLC
Urges Biden, Big Tech to Block 'Online Funding' for 'Hate Groups' to Fight Domestic Terrorism. In the wake of
the Capitol riot, the House Committee on Financial Services — chaired by none other than Rep. Maxine Waters
(D-Calif.) — held a hearing entitled "Dollars Against Democracy: Domestic Terrorist Financing in the Aftermath
of Insurrection." Who should testify at such a hearing? Democrats invited none other than the scandal-plagued
far-left smear factory the Southern Poverty Law Center, which routinely brands mainstream conservative and Christian
nonprofits "hate groups," listing them along with the Ku Klux Klan. In her testimony, SPLC Chief of Staff Lecia Brooks
suggested concrete ways that government and Big Tech can separate "hate groups" from their "online funding sources."
She praised some tech companies for taking action while demanding far more throttling in the future.
Neo-racists
in state government prioritizing Blacks and Latinos for Covid vaccination. A new wave of racism is sweeping
across the country in the guise of "anti-racism" or "equity." A better term is "neo-racism," for unlike the previous
waves of state-sanctioned racism under slavery, the KKK, and Jim Crow (all of them largely at the hands of Democrats), this
wave of racism claims to be about fighting racism, though, in fairness, it is also largely being implemented at the hands of
Democrats.
Democrats
Snuck $1 BILLION For 'Racial Justice' In Farming Section Of COVID Bill. It should be clear by now that the
COVID relief package is little more than a gigantic giveaway to special interests that are loyal to the Democrats and
bailouts for mismanaged blue states. The House approved their version of the bill in the early hours of Saturday
morning, cynically choosing to keep it out of sight of the American people and to hide Republican opposition to what will be
a budget-busting boondoggle of epic proportions. With the bill now headed for the Senate, much of the contents will be
ignored by the media or cloaked in the guise of 'racial justice'.
Why Are
Dems Nuking GOP Voters' No. 1 Issue? You've probably seen the poll about the top concerns of GOP voters and Democratic voters;
it's been all over conservative media. The top three concerns of Republican voters are:
[#1] Illegal immigration
[#2] Lack of support for the police
[#3] High taxes
Democratic voters live in a completely different world. Their top three concerns are:
[#1] Donald Trump's voters
[#2] White nationalism
[#3] Systemic racism
[...] Initially, I was as outraged as you about the hatey-hate Democratic voters. But then I realized that it all made
sense. [...] What would be the biggest threat to the comfortable global educated and credentialed elite and its noble plan to
Build Back Better in a scientifically designed Great Reset? Exactly: a resurgence of nationalism all across the world.
And "whites" — whoever they are, wherever they are, however they are scientifically identified by top-notch scientists —
are in the forefront of this planetary cultural and political movement. What about "systemic racism?" Do you seriously think that
our liberal friends will ever agree to stop the fight against racists? Let's face it, liberals have had a glorious 50 years
accusing everyone else of being racists; they have made racism the new Original Sin. But it's in the nature of a tire that
it will slowly deflate unless you pump it up from time to time. There must be racism, there simply must, because the power
of our liberal friends begins and ends with the nuclear weapon of "Racist!"
Joe
Biden's Embrace of Fallacious Critical Race Theory. The fallacy that America is "systemically racist" is rooted
in arguments that the white majority suffers from subconscious racism which contaminates the entire "system." [...] President
Joe Biden has eagerly joined this crusade to eliminate subconscious racism! White Americans are kept in the dark
as to the details of this enlightened reprogramming, but are told that the Bill of Rights is an impediment to these
lofty new goals to eradicate systemic biases. The first step in eliminating subconscious racism is to stifle
conscious thoughts: the liberties of Free Speech and Due Process are viewed as tools of oppression by the white
majority. It is axiomatic that government cannot eliminate subconscious racism. Yet, government can be
very effective at fomenting racism, as numerous current and historical examples demonstrate. America is about to
try its hand at this folly.
The
Left's Latest Battleground Is Your Neighborhood. The progressives running the Biden administration are planning
a two-pronged strategy to attack traditional suburban families where they live — in their homes and schools.
The Biden campaign platform, largely written by Bernie Sanders and his supporters, called for initiatives for equity in
housing and education. Going forward, these will translate into actions by the Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) to assert its policy to Affirmatively Further Fair Housing (AFFH) and for the Department of Education to
impose Critical Race Theory (CRT) to attack both real and intellectual property. The strategy got underway with the new
president's executive order on equity that calls for "an ambitious whole-of-government equity agenda." Their primary
weapon is the concept of disparate impact, a conveniently squishy theory that there needs to be no factual finding of
discriminatory zoning or racism in schools to conclude that a community is racist. All disparate impact requires is for
a bureaucrat to declare an imbalance of race or income among the residents of a local community or in its school's Advanced
Placement courses.
I guess racial equality has been achieved, if everyone's moving on to something else.
Kamala
Harris: Equality is Old News, Let's Talk About Equity. Kamala Harris has only one card and she plays it
over and over again. And then she plays it some more. [...] You can't fight for equality and equity. No one
starts out from the same place. Kamala started out as the daughter of wealthy foreign students who grew up in Canada
and lives in a Brentwood mansion. That doesn't mean that she should be held back. Different people are born with
different skills, physical abilities, and potentials. Handicapper General Kamala can't change that no matter how many
sandbags she ties to them. No matter where someone is born, they can achieve things on their own, whether it's by
pursuing their dreams, or by sleeping with the married mayor of San Francisco in exchange for political connections.
That's not something you're born with. It's not about where you start, but where you end up. Equality is
freedom. Equity is a plantation.
The
Biden administration's dangerous and racist BREATHE Act. I just caught up with Y.G. Nyghtstorm's discussion of
the BREATHE Act, the centerpiece of BLM's hard pressure on the American political scene. It's ostensibly about limiting
police brutality, but it actually pushes a comprehensive social agenda. This agenda will not only be hugely damaging to
civil society but it's also terribly racist in its approach to the Black community. The BREATHE Act, obviously, is a
reference to the fact that George Floyd couldn't breathe while in police custody. The Act ignores the fact that Floyd's
problem wasn't that the police suffocated him (they acted in complete accordance with guidelines for dealing with people
suffering from drug-induced excited delirium) but that he was rapidly dying from a self-induced fentanyl overdose. [...]
Biden has already enacted bits and pieces of the act through executive orders that defund private prisons, try to destroy
suburbs with a push for high-density housing, and mandating Critical Race Theory training in the federal government.
The
Imaginary Menace Behind Everything Wrong In America. Attorney general nominee Merrick Garland announced his
chief priority to the Senate Monday. "If confirmed," he said, "I will supervise the prosecution of white supremacists
and others who stormed the Capitol on 6 January — a heinous attack that sought to disrupt a cornerstone of our
democracy." He also insisted America faces a "more dangerous period than we faced in Oklahoma City" due to the "white
supremacist" threat. [...] You would think that Klansmen are roaming American streets and terrorizing ordinary citizens on a
daily basis. You have to worry about a skinhead gang beating you to a bloody pulp every time you go to the
supermarket. That's how this problem is portrayed. According to liberals, terrorism, violence, and crime stem
from this pasty-faced menace. This is the only problem that warrants law enforcement's attention. Anyone with a
shred of common sense can see that this is plainly ridiculous. There are, of course, some nutty right-wing extremists
out there, but they weren't the ones burning down cities or laying siege to the entire Pacific Northwest. That was
Antifa and Black Lives Matter.
Virginia
poised to become 1st Southern state to declare racism a public health crisis. Virginia — whose state
capital Richmond was once the capital of the Confederacy — is about to become the first state in the South to
declare racism a public health crisis. The state Senate approved the declaration Tuesday and sent it to Gov. Ralph
Northam — who's expected to sign it. It had previously passed the House of Delegates on an almost party-line
vote, with Democrats voting overwhelmingly in favor. The American Public Health Association says 145 cities and
counties in 27 states have declared racism a public health issue — up from just seven in 2019.
The Editor says...
Racism is a character issue, not a medical issue; but it's easier to politicize if it can first be medicalized.
The
dangers of using Climate Policy as a Social Justice tool. Cap-and-trade has been criticised in California for
allowing big emitters to pay their way out of reducing emissions and cause pollution. It's become a social justice
issue as poorer communities tend to be located near where the pollution is being created. James Bushnell at the Energy
Institute at Haas warns that such clashes are being caused by the mistaken view that climate policy should be a major tool
for reducing inequality. In fact, some climate policies — on their own — will inevitably work
against social justice. Just think of the jobs lost when gas refineries close down. Or subsidies for EVs that,
overwhelmingly for now, benefit affluent buyers. Bushnell strongly asserts that social justice should be addressed with
its own policy tools. If this is not understood, good policies like cap-and-trade (which raises California billions in
revenues) are in danger of being sidelined. Worse, any failure climate policies have in reducing inequality could lead
to disillusionment and acrimony over the new green agenda.
How
Democrats Are Already Maneuvering to Shape Biden's First Supreme Court Pick. After meeting in the Oval Office
earlier this month with President Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and his fellow senior House Democrats, Representative
James E. Clyburn of South Carolina made a beeline to Ms. Harris's office in the West Wing to privately raise a topic
that did not come up during their group discussion: the Supreme Court. Mr. Clyburn, the highest-ranking
African-American in Congress, wanted to offer Ms. Harris the name of a potential future justice, according to a Democrat
briefed on their conversation. District Court Judge J. Michelle Childs would fulfill Mr. Biden's pledge to appoint
the first Black woman to the Supreme Court — and, Mr. Clyburn noted, she also happened to hail from South
Carolina, a state with political meaning for the president.
Democrats
Are Trying to Ruin the Military. One of the things I remember hearing Rush Limbaugh say repeatedly back in the
day was that the point of the United States military was to "kill people and break things." The beauty of that statement was
that it was simple, to the point, and undeniably true. If I remember correctly, this was during the Clinton years when
the left started meddling with the mission of the military to incorporate their social agenda. That push was just
getting off the ground in the '90s, and now Joe Biden is giving it wings. Where it goes from here is disturbing and
detrimental to the very purpose of the military itself. The U.S. military is the ultimate meritocracy, or at least it
used to be. It didn't used to matter what color your skin was, your rank, your job and how well you did it was all that
mattered. Thanks to Democrats and their obsession with, and weaponization of, race in the country, skin color will be
all that matters soon. The U.S. Navy formed something called "Task Force One Navy" last June, as the left-wing social
agenda crept even under Republican presidents. Last week, they issued their report on making the Navy more "inclusive"
by treating people differently based on their skin color.
Our
Military's SJW-Driven Abandonment of Warfighting Is Going to Get Troops Killed. It gives me no pleasure to say
that I no longer recommend that young people join the military, and I'm not alone. The non-Blue Falcon veteran
community is in full revolt against the conscious decision to decline embraced by our current military leadership.
After failing to win a war in the last 20 years — and don't say Syria, because the second President *
woke up in the Oval Office wondering how he got there, more of our troops were heading back into the hellscape for
reasons no one has bothered to articulate — the military has decided to target an easier enemy, i.e., other
Americans. See, the problem with me and the other vets who are disgusted by the brass's choice to focus on SJW
priorities instead of, you know, successfully deterring or defeating America's enemies, is that we actually listened to what
we were taught when we were coming up. Most of us were trained by the heroes who put the shattered American military
together after the Democrat war in Vietnam broke it. We learned about leadership, about putting mission first but
taking care of people always, and about objectives and how to attain them. None of that's a thing anymore.
Vermont
House features 'devotional' seething with racist hatred against whites. Vermont's House of Representatives
opens each session with a "daily devotion." Tuesday morning's presentation (February 16) by Representative Harold "Hal"
Colston was an outrageous condemnation of Vermont's history and culture as racist. This abused the very concept of
devotion, and Vermonters. [...] Referencing the 1619 Project, Rep. "Hal" launched into an overtly anti-white
tirade. Quoting James Baldwin, whom Colston "regard[s] as one of Black America's most prolific prophets," Colston
proclaimed (in a state where slavery was never legal, and very few blacks ever resided): ["]What if the Negro was
not invented? How would our country have worked without chattel slavery, the exploitation of black and brown people who
became the backbone of our capitalistic system? Who would you be? Who would we be? ... Structural racism is the
normalization of many dynamics that are historical, cultural, institutional and interpersonal and routinely advantages White
people while producing chronic, adverse outcomes for people of color.["] Not all Vermont legislators —
let alone citizens — would view this rant as "inclusive" of the Vermonters who died in the Civil War freeing
blacks from slavery. This "historical and cultural omission" is suspicious.
"Underlying
this insurrection were the actions of folks who were challenging the voices of people of color.". "If you look
at whose votes were being challenged, these came from largely urban areas. The votes of people of color were being
challenged." Said said Janette McCarthy Louard, deputy general counsel of the N.A.A.C.P., quoted in "N.A.A.C.P. Sues
Trump and Giuliani Over Election Fight and Jan. 6 Riot/The civil rights group brought the suit on behalf of Representative
Bennie Thompson of Mississippi, with other Democrats in Congress expected to join as plaintiffs" (NYT).
If
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene is the standard, what about Democrat 'kingmaker' Rev. Al Sharpton?
Because of offensive tweets posted by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., before she won office, House Democrats joined
by 11 Republicans voted to strip her of her committee assignments. If this is the new standard, can we apply this to
the Rev. Al Sharpton, aka a Democratic "kingmaker," whose support was solicited by every major 2020 Democratic
presidential candidate? [...] At the 1995 Million Man March, Sharpton said, "O.J. is home, but Mumia Abu-Jamal ain't home,
and we won't stop till all our people that need a chance in an awkward and unbalanced criminal justice system can come home."
Of course, O.J. Simpson, whose acquittal was celebrated by Sharpton, murdered two people. As for Abu-Jamal, a Black
man, he was convicted in 1982 for the execution-style murder of a white Philadelphia cop. The prosecutor called the
case "the strongest I ever had." CNN host Michael Smerconish co-wrote, along with the slain officer's widow, a book called
"Murdered by Mumia." Smerconish criticizes "ignorant" supporters of Jamal who, like Sharpton, call Abu-Jamal innocent.
Smerconish also said that the cop killer's multiple post-conviction appeals "made a mockery of the judicial system."
Worshipping
At The Altar Of Power. On Wednesday, January 6th, a mob of aggrieved voters from across the political spectrum
stormed the Capitol, presumably in hopes of suspending the certification of electors and preventing the finalization of the
election's outcome. In subsequent news stories, the members of the mob were described as everything from seditious
traitors to white supremacists. There does not seem to be any evidence that the mob was attempting to overthrow our
government or that racial animus motivated them. However, as we are becoming increasingly aware, everything is now racial.
Oh, yeah. This sounds perfectly reasonable.
Southern
Poverty Law Center Calls for Expelling Half of Republicans in Congress. The Southern Poverty Law Center is no
longer confining itself to listing bar signs and brands of oil as hate groups (not to mention, yours truly), it's going full
coup. In its Year in Hate, the SPLC demands that, "Congress should discipline, censure, or expel all of the 147
Senators and Representatives who supported the insurrection and baseless "Stop the Steal" lies by voting against Electoral
College certification of President Biden's victory." That's about 56% of the Republican members of the House and
Senate. Obviously, Congressional Black Caucus members who opposed certifying President Bush's win are just fine.
Then, the SPLC is calling for a South African style, "national truth, racial healing and transformation commission to examine
the history of white supremacy and structural racism in the United States. [...]"
Rev.
Al Sharpton, 66, files for divorce from his estranged wife 17 years after their separation - sparking rumors he will wed
girlfriend, 42. The Rev. Al Sharpton has filed for divorce from his wife Kathy 17 years after they
separated. The 66-year-old civil rights activist and Baptist minister submitted the paperwork on Thursday. They
have lived apart since 2004. The pair met in the 1970s when he was touring with James Brown and she was a back-up singer.
The Editor says...
He may enjoy Cafeteria Christianity, but at least he's not a bigamist.
A Tsunami of Hate.
[Scroll down] The claim that "systemic racism touches every facet of American life" is itself a racist lie, whose
evident target is white people, since according to the woke, "people of color" can't be racist. Not surprisingly, one
of Biden's first week initiatives was a systemically racist plan to provide financial assistance to small businesses whose
owners were black, Asian, Hispanic, and Native American. Only whites were excluded. But Asian Americans as an
ethnic group have higher incomes than white Americans. So what rationale for this policy is there but anti-white racism?
China Doesn't Have to Lift
a Finger to Push Biden Around. "Xenophobia" has been a constant Biden theme. On January 31 of last year,
President Trump announced the "travel ban," prohibitions and restrictions on arrivals from China. Within moments of the
announcement, Biden went on the attack. "This is no time for Donald Trump's record of hysterical xenophobia and fear
mongering to lead the way instead of science," he said. Biden's campaign said the attack was not in response to the
travel ban, yet on the following day the candidate expressed the same thoughts in a tweet: "We need to lead the way
with science — not Donald Trump's record of hysteria, xenophobia, and fear-mongering." There was nothing
"xenophobic" about Trump's travel ban. It was imposed on arrivals from the country where the disease first appeared.
The ban, therefore, saved lives, and it would have saved even more if it had been stricter, announced sooner, and had been
more rigorously enforced.
In push
for woke 'equity,' Biden abandons equality. President Biden's embrace of utter nonsense pushed by the "woke"
continued with last week's executive orders to "advance racial equity" and "root out systemic racism in housing and criminal
justice." The "equity" approach assumes that any outcome that doesn't meet inane racial quotas is the result of
bias. It is, in fact, systematically racist. The four executive orders Biden signed Tuesday don't seem that
earth-shattering. He directed the Department of Housing and Urban Development "to take steps necessary to redress
racially discriminatory federal housing policies," told the Justice Department to stop using private prisons, recommitted the
feds to honoring tribal sovereignty and vowed to combat "racism, xenophobia and intolerance against Asian Americans and
Pacific Islanders." But, as the White House put it, his many "equity" orders set up "a whole-of-government initiative to
address racial equity and support underserved communities, and redress systemic racism in federal policies, laws and
programs." He'll also require "all agencies to take affirmative steps to promote diversity, equity and inclusion."
Historians
slam woke teacher responsible for renaming 44 San Francisco schools: incorrect research came from Wikipedia.
Acclaimed historians are hitting out at a chairman in charge of renaming 44 San Francisco schools after it was revealed that
he refused to consult with them during the decision-making process and his research was based on information he found on
Wikipedia. Earlier this week, the San Francisco Board of Education voted 6-1 to strip 44 public schools of their
current monikers because they honor 'racist' figures from American history. Schools named after politicians including
George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Abraham Lincoln are now set to be rebranded in the coming months. The
controversial decision comes three years after a task force was established to study the names of the city's 125 schools to
determine which ones needed to be replaced amid a nationwide reckoning on race.
San
Francisco Committee Changed School Names Based on Wikipedia and Wild Accusations. The San Francisco Board of
Education voted to rename 44 of the city's schools, claiming that prominent figures from American history, such as George
Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Paul Revere, were tied to racist incidents. The committee based their decisions on
Wikipedia and other wildly inaccurate information to source its claims. Committee chairman Jeremiah Jeffries, along
with his fellow committee members, used Wikipedia to support their claims that prominent U.S. historical figures had ties to
racist incidents, and therefore warranted the renaming of scores of San Francisco schools, according to a report by Mission Local.
San
Francisco to strip Abraham Lincoln, Dianne Feinstein and others from public school names. The names of Abraham
Lincoln, George Washington and other prominent figures including California Sen. Dianne Feinstein will be removed from
44 San Francisco public schools, a move that stirred debate Wednesday on whether the famously liberal city has taken the
national reckoning on America's racist past too far. The decision by the San Francisco Board of Education in a 6-1 vote
Tuesday night affects one-third of the city's schools and came nearly three years after the board started considering the
idea. The approved resolution calls for removing names that honored historical figures with direct or broad ties to
slavery, oppression, racism or the "subjugation" of human beings.
The Editor says...
If you put a 12-foot fence around the entire U.S. Capitol, isn't that subjugation of the voters?
Biden's
'racial justice' agenda: Judge everyone by the color of their skin. On Tuesday [1/26/2021], six days into
Joe Biden's administration, it became clear why Susan Rice, hitherto a foreign-policy specialist, was named director of the
Domestic Policy Council. Rice — unconfirmable for a Cabinet post after her unembarrassed Sunday-show lying
about the Benghazi terrorist attack — ventured into the White House press room to preview Biden's "equity"
initiative. With one possible exception, the specific policies announced were less important than the word "equity,"
invoked 19 times by Rice and nine by Biden. Ending federal private prison contracts and combating "xenophobia" against
Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders are small potatoes as federal policies. Not so, perhaps, with the Affirmatively
Furthering Fair Housing initiative, started under former President Barack Obama, repealed under former President Donald Trump
and now due for spirited revival. The idea is for the feds to reverse local zoning laws and plant low-income housing in
suburbs deemed insufficiently diverse.
Racial
Equity, Equality, and the Bureaucrats' Charter. Reading one of the first new presidential executive
orders — titled "Executive Order On Advancing Racial Equity and Support for Underserved Communities Through the
Federal Government" — was for me a depressing experience. [...] The order begins with the words, "Equal
opportunity is the bedrock of American democracy." This at best is a half-truth depending very much on the meaning
attached to the concept of equality of opportunity. [...] In short, the order is a symptom of what Thomas Sowell called "the
search for cosmic justice," the demand that existence be made fair in every respect, a search that, if taken seriously, can
lead only to a totalitarian hell. The term "people of color" appears in the order, as if all people who aren't of
European descent have something in common transcending all other differences between them. This is revealing, for the
only thing they can possibly have in common is that they are oppressed by those people of European descent from whom they are
distinguished. This isn't only obvious nonsense, but is a deeply racialized view of the world.
Joe
Biden: 'We Have Never Fully Lived Up to the Founding Principles of This Nation'. President Joe Biden told
Americans on Tuesday[1/26/2021] that they had "never fully lived up to the founding principles of this nation." Biden was
speaking at the White House on the occasion of signing four executive orders that, he claimed, would address racial "equity."
[...] Biden did not explain why he believes Americans are not "treated equally" under the law, or who is mistreating
them. The Civil Right Act of 1964 has been in effect for nearly six decades — only slightly longer than
Biden's own political career. The idea that America has never lived up to its founding principles was a repeated theme
throughout Biden's presidential campaign.
Impeach
Harriet Tubman. Now that Joe Biden is in the White House, Democrats are once again on the march, this time to
put abolitionist Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill. They don't actually know very much about Harriet Tubman, but she was
Black, and Democrats desperately want to put somebody Black on our money. So here she comes. I say they don't
know very much about Ms. Tubman because Democrats announced this on the same day that Democrats sent a procession of
House Managers over to the Senate to deliver an Article of Impeachment against former President Trump. They are
charging him with "inciting insurrection." If Democrats want to impeach someone for inciting insurrection, they could
start with Harriet Tubman. She was one of the major planners of the attempt to take over and occupy the United States
arsenal at Harpers Ferry in 1859. Seventeen people were killed in that action. The leader, John Brown, was
charged with treason against the Commonwealth of Virginia, murder, and inciting insurrection. He and six others were
convicted and executed for their roles in the attack. Had she not fallen ill shortly before the attack, Harriet Tubman
might well have been among those captured and executed.
Democrats'
Version of Unity Means 'Us against Them'. [Scroll down] Politicians and political activists love to
muddy the water. As such, they take advantage of the situation by offering a wrong diagnosis and even worse solutions.
"Your suffering," they say, "is because of the injustice committed by another group of people." There are villains out there,
those who are different from you. Having preached that wrong diagnosis, they then come up with a cunning solution:
to give power to crooked politicians. The result? The problem still exists and may even be getting worse, but the
crooked politicians stay in power for decades with lavish lifestyles.
Biden
Admin Embraces 'Racial Equity' Ideology in Slew of Executive Action Announcements. The incoming Biden
administration has announced a series of executive actions that open the door for instituting the quasi-Marxist critical
theory across the federal government. President Joe Biden would sign documents to "launch a whole-of-government
initiative to advance racial equity," his transition team said in a Jan. 20 release. Equity means equality of outcome,
a concept tied to the critical theories that slice up society into identity groups based on race, gender, sexual proclivities,
and others, while positing which groups are oppressed and which are the oppressors, similarly to how Marxism labels people as
oppressors or the oppressed based on class. "The president-elect will sign an Executive Order beginning the work of
embedding equity across federal policymaking and rooting out systemic racism and other barriers to opportunity from federal
programs and institutions," the release said.
First
Duty of the Press: Make It About Race. Even after a mob of Trump supporters stormed the Capitol on Jan.
6, the media felt the need to pile up the false accusations. Their first order of business was to turn it into a story
about race. The Trump riot has as little to do with race as any story in 21st-century America. COVID,
immigration, tax cuts, the stimulus — I could come up with a racial angle for any of those. Your
assignment: Make the siege at the Capitol a story primarily about race relations. You, a normal person, one week
later: I'm stumped. But to our media, the main point to be made about the riot was: Can you imagine what
would have happened if black people had done that?
What
Changed? Kamala Harris Suddenly Introduced As 'Asian American' AND 'African American'. Is Kamala Harris
"African American" or "Asian American"? I guess it depends on who they're trying to win over. When they were in
campaign mode, she was touted as the first "African American" VP candidate in order to get more votes from minority
communities. However, Amy Klobuchar just introduced her as the first "African American, Asian American" VP.
AOC
said she avoided 'extraction points' during Capitol storm because she feared 'white supremacist members of Congress would
disclose her location so she could get hurt or kidnapped'. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) expressed
concern that her own colleagues in Congress might have shared her location to the mob of fanatic Trump supporters while they
were storming the Capitol last Wednesday. Ocasio-Cortez's remarks comes as other Democrats have sounded off on the
possibility that some GOP members of the Congress abetted the rioters as they stormed the building. Lawmakers were
instructed to head for a designated 'extraction point' to seek protection from the chaos, but AOC asserted that that wasn't
really an option 'because there were QAnon and white-supremacist sympathizers and, frankly, white-supremacist members of
Congress in that extraction point who I know and who I have felt would disclose my location and would create opportunities to
allow me to be hurt, kidnapped, et cetera.'
The Editor says...
Actual "white supremacists" are extremely rare in this country. I've known a lot of rednecks, and I've only run across a couple of people who
might have been white supremacists, back in the 20th century. I suspect most people like that are in prison or dead. But if such a person still
exists, he or she generally keeps his feelings private. It is difficult to imagine that an actual white supremacist would be elected to Congress.
Yet, nobody seems to object when AOC claims there are "white-supremacist sympathizers and, frankly, white-supremacist members of Congress."
St.
Paul to form reparations commission for descendants of slaves. The city of St. Paul apologized for its
role in institutional racism on Wednesday and agreed to form a new commission to study reparations for Black residents whose
ancestors were enslaved. The City Council voted 7-0 to form the St. Paul Recovery Act Community Reparations
Commission as a way to promote racial healing. The resolution creating the commission also apologizes for slavery at
Fort Snelling and the destruction of St. Paul's Rondo neighborhood in the 1950s. Council Member Jane Prince, the
resolution's lead sponsor on the council, partnered with Trahern Crews, co-chairman of the Green Party of the United States
who heads up its national reparations working group.

To
help heal racial wounds, Black national anthem would become America's hymn under proposal. U.S. Rep. James
Clyburn, D-S.C., wants a song about faith and resilience long revered in the Black community to become the national hymn and
help toward uniting the country after centuries of racial turmoil. Clyburn, the House majority whip, plans to introduce
a measure as early as this week that would make "Lift Every Voice and Sing," known as the Black national anthem, the national
hymn and give it a special place alongside the country's anthem, "The Star-Spangled Banner." "To make it a national hymn,
I think, would be an act of bringing the country together. It would say to people, 'You aren't singing a separate
national anthem, you are singing the country's national hymn," said Clyburn, the highest-ranking Black American in
Congress. "The gesture itself would be an act of healing. Everybody can identify with that song."
The Editor says...
I suppose you're going to tell me that if I don't go along with this plan, I'm a racist. But if someone concocts a "black
national anthem," specifically and exclusively for the benefit of blacks, then who's the racist? And if some Congressman demands
that we replace our 200-year-old National Anthem with this specious claptrap, is that really "an act of healing?"
Something
missing? Biden's priorities to re-open 'Black, Latino, Asian, Native American, women-owned businesses'.
Joe Biden plans to help small businesses hard-hit by COVID with federal funds, but apparently only if those establishments
fit within the parameters of identity politics, a philosophy which itself is a priority for Democrats. Reading off a
teleprompter, Biden explained that "Our focus will be on small businesses on Main Street that aren't wealthy and well
connected that are facing real economic hardships through no fault of their own. Our priority will be Black, Latino,
Asian, and Native American-owned small businesses, women-owned businesses, and finally having equal access to resources
needed to reopen and rebuild. "But we're gonna make a concerted effort to help small businesses in low-income
communities, in big cities, small towns, rural communities that have faced systemic barriers to relief," he added in a video
clip on the Biden-Harris Presidential Transition Twitter feed.
Twenty-First
Century Rules for Revolutionaries. #1: Inertia is fatal to a revolutionary movement. The overtures of the
late 60s movement are eerily similar to what is happening today. The problem for leftists was that, back then, the
revolution centered around the anti-Vietnam War Movement. Once peace came, the revolution's impetus died out. The
2008 Occupy Wall St Movement had the zeal, but cold winter months in New York were not conducive to this type of
protest. The lesson: choose your cause carefully. Today's cause célèbre is "systemic racism" and
its offshoots. Racism can be recycled perpetually. Recently, for example, the Mayor of Louisville, Kentucky,
declared racism to be a public health crisis.
Instead
Of Unity, Joe Biden And Kamala Harris Chose Divisive Lies. In the aftermath of one of the worst days in modern
American history — when violent rioters stormed the US Capitol building — President-elect Joe Biden
[...] said that "a group of Black Lives Matter" protesters would have been "treated very, very differently," and that "we all
know that's true." Joe Biden called the difference between how police treated Trump rioters versus Black Lives Matter
protesters "unacceptable." Kamala Harris took this statement one step further by presenting the appalling actions of the
rioters as being demonstrative of a wider issue, "a justice system that does not work equally for all." Setting aside
the unbelievable irony that Joe Biden — the author of the 1994 crime bill — and Kamala Harris —
a former District Attorney and Attorney General who has jailed more black people than nearly any other American citizen —
are assigned authority on "criminal justice reform," it's crucial that we reject these statements for what they are: racist,
inflammatory garbage. The narrative that the "white pro-Trump rioters" who stormed the U.S. Capitol building in Washington
D.C. were treated "better" than "Black Lives Matter protesters" is simply untrue. Police clashed violently with rioters on
January 6th. One police officer tragically lost his life, and one rioter — an unarmed white woman —
was shot and killed.

runoff election, race hustler and longtime PoliticsNation host Al Sharpton reveled in the possible victories of
Democrats Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock by insisting that he and his fellow civil rights activists are "nonpartisan"
individuals concerned about the direction of the country. Former liberal Republican-turned-leftist and MSNBC host
Nicolle Wallace introduced Sharpton by insisting that the election has not only hinged on "issues of...race" and "issues of
identity," but also "how extraordinarily disciplined the candidates on the Democratic side have been."
Of
Merit and Melanin: Identity Politics and the Balkanization of America. Identity Politics strips away the
idea that we are all Americans first. It places race, religion, creed, sexuality, and most importantly, skin
pigmentation at the forefront of one's identity. It maintains that America is a horrible place, filled with racists,
sexists, and xenophobes, and is, in fact, the source of most of the world's problems. This is a reversion to
tribalism. It repudiates everything that America stands for and could ultimately have catastrophic consequences.
Democrats
Unleash Their Inner-Racism. Race has always been an effective weapon for Democrats. The party of slavery
became the party of Ku Klux Klan, became the party of segregation, became the party of Jim Crow, became... the party of
tolerance? No. In the name of "tolerance," Democrats have brought about segregated graduation, school dances, and
college housing. The circle is complete. It'd be easier and faster to list things Democrats haven't made into a
race issue than it would be to list what they haven't. The latter consists mostly of the failed policies they've
implemented in the cities they've controlled for generations, and they're only on the list because the complete economic
collapse of those places can only be blamed on their actions. If you wanted to condemn a race of people to a life of
poverty and crime, you'd be hard-pressed to find a way to do it more effectively than Democrats have.
Jamaal
Bowman calls capitalism 'slavery,' says Dems should follow 'Squad,' not Obama. As he prepares to enter Congress
in the new year, Rep.-elect Jamaal Bowman said in a new interview that he believes capitalism is "slavery by another name."
Bowman (D-NY), who ousted longtime Rep. Eliot Engel in a bruising primary battle, made the remarks while speaking Monday [11/21/2020]
to The Root, an African American-focused news organization. The incoming congressman, whose future district includes parts
of Yonkers and Scarsdale, began by making his case that the Democratic Party is ripe for a makeover.
'Vote
Reparations': Law School Prof Says Black Ballots Should Count Twice. In case you haven't figured it out yet,
so-called "social justice" efforts aren't aimed at righting ongoing wrongs of "systemic" inequality and racism because they
don't exist. Rather, those efforts are designed to enact official policies aimed at achieving vengeance against white
people in America for things literally none of them have done to persons of color, ever. Accepting that will help you
understand such blatantly racist 'recommendations' that are supposedly designed to bring about 'equality,' when really
they're just designed to cancel out the white majority (many of whom already vote with the left as it is). Writing in
the leftist bible The Nation, Brandon Hasbrouck, an assistant professor at Washington and Lee University School of Law,
actually proposed allowing black votes to count twice as a means of enacting "vote reparations." Not even kidding.
He isn't kidding. This isn't satire.
The
Votes of Black Americans Should Count Twice. Black votes in this country are worth less than white votes.
Joe Biden won the Electoral College because Black voters in Atlanta, Detroit, Milwaukee, and Philadelphia turned out in
significant numbers. But even with overwhelming Black support — 94 percent of Detroit voted for
Biden! — the outcomes in Georgia, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania were worryingly close. One core
problem is the Electoral College. Wyoming, which has just 580,000 residents and is 93 percent white, gets three
electors because of its two senators and one representative in the House. By comparison, Georgia's Fifth Congressional
District — which includes Atlanta, has 710,000 residents, and is 58 percent Black — has no dedicated
electors or senators and can only occasionally overcome the mostly white and conservative votes from elsewhere in the state.
This devaluation of Black votes allows our political system to ignore Black lives, and the consequences are devastating.
The Editor says...
Incremental changes made by the left can only go in one direction. If black voters are allowed to vote twice next year, they will
never be restricted to a single vote ever again. And as soon as the rest of the country gets used to the idea, the black
voters will be allowed to vote three times each. Then four. Then, why not ten? After that, why not allow only blacks
to vote?
The
American Left Has Now Fully Embraced Racism. There is no issue more important to the future and soul of our
nation right now than the leftist bigotry threatening the very concept of what it means to be an American. On the
medical side, Dr. Harald Schmidt, a supposed expert on ethics and health policy at the University of Pennsylvania, told
the New York Times that essential workers, not the elderly, should be the first to receive COVID-19 vaccines. His
reason? "Older populations are whiter," he told the publication. "Society is structured in a way that enables
them to live longer. Instead of giving additional health benefits to those who already had more of them, we can start
to level the playing field a bit." To be clear, the term "level the playing field" here means allowing people to die
because of the color of their skin. What's amazing about this is that just months ago to even question the efficacy of
lockdowns meant to stop the spread of COVID-19 was met with accusations that one was killing grandma. Now, it doesn't
matter because grandma is probably white.
Here's
What Warnock Said When He Praised Farrakhan Back in 2013. Back in 2013, Georgia senatorial candidate
Rev. Raphael Warnock praised Louis Farrakhan, the anti-Semitic leader of the Nation of Islam. His response came
after a member of the church asked about the role the Nation of Islam has on the Black community and whether the "Black
church" was having the same attendance issues that "mainstream white church and synagogues" were having. Although the
Nation of Islam has a large Black population, Warnock said their attendance is far smaller than churches and synagogues.
"Its voice has been important even for the development of Black theology because it was the Black Muslims who challenged Black
preachers and said, 'You're promulgating ... the White man's religion. That's a slave religion. You're telling
people to focus on Heaven; meanwhile, they're catching hell,'" Warnock explained. "We've needed the witness of the Nation
of Islam, in a real sense, to put a fire under us and keep us honest about the meaning of the proclamation coming from our pulpits."
Warnock:
U.S. Senators 'Gangsters and Thugs' Who Aimed to 'Kill Children'. Georgia Democratic Senate candidate Raphael
Warnock described members of the U.S. Senate as "gangsters and thugs" whose votes for a 2017 tax cut exposed their
willingness to "kill children." The remarks, which have not previously been reported, may provide another opening for
Warnock's Republican opponent, Sen. Kelly Loeffler, who has worked to portray him as a "radical liberal." Warnock,
a pastor at Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, has come under fire for other controversial statements, including his praise
for Rev. Jeremiah Wright's [...] speech, his condemnation of Israel, which he likened to apartheid South Africa, and his
claim that "America needs to repent for its worship of whiteness."
Sharpton:
Texas Election Lawsuit 'Clear Racist Attempt to Disenfranchise Black Voters'. MSNBC host Al Sharpton said on
MSNBC's "The ReidOut" that Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, the 17 state attorneys general and Republican lawmakers who
support his lawsuit to contest the presidential election results of four battleground states were involved in "a clear racist
attempt to disenfranchise black voters." Anchor Joy Reid said, "This is nothing short to me of white nationalism in
action in our political system. It's anti-democracy." She added, "They are only going after cities where the
prominent black voters and saying that is where the fraud is. It's a direct war against Black voters."
The Editor says...
[#1] Only at that point did the writer get around to mentioning what Al Sharpton said, which was the main point of the article, according to
the headline. [#2] If there ever was "a direct war against Black voters," you'd know it.
Democrats
fight over who should serve as Biden's Agriculture Secretary as influential party members push for black Congresswoman to be
picked. A fight is breaking out among Democrats over who Joe Biden should pick to be his Secretary of
Agriculture. The president-elect has yet to appoint the person who will head up the Agriculture Department, which
oversees various agencies including the United States Forest Service, the United States Food Safety and Inspection Service,
and the Food Stamp Program. South Carolina Rep. James Clyburn — who is widely seen as playing a crucial role in
Biden's Democratic primary victory — told The New York Times on Thursday that Biden should name Ohio Rep. Marcia Fudge
to the powerful position.
The Editor says...
Pre-selecting the race and gender of an employee before reviewing the candidates' qualifications is racism and sexism.
Some people call it "affirmative action," if it precludes white males, but it's still racism and sexism.
Fighting
Words. Since race is the principal weapon wielded by Democrats, this is most evident in their claim that there
is "systemic racism" in America, which needs to be rooted out even if it means destroying the very foundations of law and
order. When two Republican canvassers refused to certify the election result in Detroit — a city once the
richest in America but now mainly black and poor thanks to fifty-nine years of misrule by Democrats — they were
accused of "systemic racism." This charge and the accompanying threats by the Democrat mob were so intimidating the two
withdrew their objections. But if there was in fact election fraud in Detroit, to object to it is not by any stretch of
the imagination "systemic racism." To believe otherwise is to believe that black people, due to their skin color, are
incapable of committing election fraud. How racist is that? "Systemic racism" is an assertion made reflexively by
Democrats that is never accompanied by evidence. For good reason. Systemic racism has been outlawed in America
since the Civil Rights Act of 1964. If there were actual instances of systemic racism in 2020, there would be
lawsuits — plenty of them. [...] You never hear of massive lawsuits over systemic racism, because "systemic
racism" is a myth. The myth lives because it is an indispensable weapon wielded by Democrats to advance their
anti-democratic agendas and quests for power.
Demand
on Biden: Hispanic group insists on Latino quota in his Cabinet. A leading Hispanic group said Tuesday
that Joseph R. Biden, the presumptive president-elect, must name at least five Hispanics to his Cabinet in a nod to the
diversity of the coalition that powered him in last week's election. The demand by the National Association of Latino
Elected and Appointed Officials is a dramatic early marker in what is shaping up to be a nasty fight among branches of the
Democratic coalition over who will occupy positions of power with a new administration. NALEO President Ricardo Lara
said that in addition to the Cabinet posts, the group wants a Hispanic quota for the more than 4,000 political appointees in
a Biden administration. Given the economic situation, the coronavirus crisis and other pressing needs, the community
needs to have a significant voice, he said.
The Left's Civility Claptrap.
Joe Biden's campaigns have rested on the most rancid racial politics. In 2020, he routinely accused his opponent of
racism and support for white supremacism, drawing on nothing but his own libelous twisting of Trump's words after the rioting
in Charlottesville. In 2012, Biden had accused Republicans of planning to put blacks "back in chains." His venom
came out also on non-racial matters. He once called opponents of gay marriage the "dregs of society." In the
Senate, he habitually hurled dirty charges, becoming the father of Borking. But now Biden's thoughts turn to
civility. He promises to lead us out of a "grim era of demonization." Biden is not the first Democrat to peddle this
claptrap. Indeed, it is a standard hypocrisy of Democrats: out of power, they extol incivility; once they regain
power, they denounce it. [...] "Civility" to the Left is simply a tool of propaganda with which to secure docility from the
people. But liberals have never felt the slightest need to practice it themselves, much less adhere to any moral system
that would require it.
As
Democrats Divide, Stacey Abrams Declares 'Identity Politics' Future Of Party. Failed Georgia gubernatorial
candidate Stacey Abrams on Wednesday declared "identity politics" the future of the Democratic Party. The racial,
gender, and sexuality politics of the hard Left, according to Abrams, are "exactly" who the Democrat Party is and how they
"won" in 2020, despite a lackluster performance in the House of Representatives. "The notion of identity politics has
been peddled for the past 10 years and it's been used as a dog whistle to say we shouldn't pay too much attention to the
voices coming into progress," Abrams said at the Center for American Progress' Ideas Conference, adding, "I would argue that
identity politics is exactly who we are and it's exactly how we won." Abrams argued identity politics have "brought new
folks to the process" for the Democrats, despite President Donald Trump making major gains with minority communities this
election cycle. A "failure to focus on racial differences would give minority voters the impression 'they have no
reason to engage and no reason to show up,'" she asserted, according to The Hill.
The Editor says...
Apparently Ms. Abrams believes that minorities think about race all the time, to the exclusion of all other issues,
and racial strife is their only reason to vote. What a dismal view of the world!
Joe Biden, Candidate
of Lies. [Scroll down] Unfortunately, Biden's willingness to use race as a cudgel to achieve political
power has a long history. For years, Biden huddled with segregationist Democrats when he thought it suited his Senate
career. Then, as Barack Obama's vice president, he switched sides to become a full-on racially obsessed agitator,
constantly assailing our country as systemically racist. In fact, Biden's tenure as vice president oversaw a marked
deterioration in race relations in America, in no small part because he and his boss regularly inflamed racial
division. Polling tells the tale. When Biden took office as vice president in 2008, fully 66 percent of Americans
regarded race relations as good, according to New York Times/CBS News polling. But by the time Biden left the White
House eight years later, the popular assessment had flipped, with 69 percent of Americans reporting race relations as
poor. So much for Biden as a "healer."
Shakedown:
Black
Lives Matter Pens Letter To Joe Biden And Kamala Harris: 'We Want Something For Our Vote'. The leader of the
Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation recently wrote a letter addressed to "President-Elect Joe Biden and Vice-President-Elect
Kamala Harris" requesting a meeting to discuss the organization's expectations and priorities. BLM co-founder and executive director
Patrisse Cullors said members are "relieved that the Trump era in government is coming to a close," adding, "As we celebrate his electoral
demise, we also know that his political exit does not ensure an end to the intolerable conditions faced by Black people in America."
The Editor says...
My next-door neighbors are black. If they face "intolerable conditions" I can't tell it from here. The blacks who do
live in bad neighborhoods are stuck there, either because of a lifetime of bad decisions,
or because they consistently vote for lying, baby-killing Democrats, who promise to clean up their cities but never do.
Democrat
Raphael Warnock Repeatedly Praised Jeremiah Wright, Marxism. Georgia Senate Democrat candidate Raphael Warnock
has praised the controversial Rev. Jeremiah Wright on many occasions and praised Marxism as a way to "teach the black
church." During the 2008 presidential election, Warnock appeared on Fox News to defend Wright after it was discovered
that then-presidential candidate Barack Obama had close ties to the reverend. Warnock hopes to unseat Sen. Kelly
Loeffler (R-GA) during the January Senate runoff election. During his March 2008 appearance on Fox News, he told host
Greta Van Susteren that Wright's legacy as a pastor was "social transformation that's been the hallmark of Rev. Jeremiah
Wright's ministry."
Countering
'You Ain't Black' with the Facts. When comedienne Chelsea Handler noticed a pro-Trump tweet posted by her
ex-flame 50 Cent, she became apoplectic and launched a bizarre social media crusade to change his mind. Dripping
condescension, she asked if he knew what his race was and insulted his intelligence, saying if he's black he can't vote
Trump. [...] Her inability to accept that a black might support Trump is of a piece with presidential candidate Joe Biden's
comment to radio host Charlamagne tha God: "If you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you
ain't black." Like many liberals in the public sphere, Handler insists that American blacks should assert race
über alles, and their candidate choice should be monolithic and unidimensional — Democratic, that
is — based solely on loyalty to the color of their skin. The false equation "black = Democratic" has
long been taken for granted by the Democrats, who conflate blacks' allegiance to their party with being true to their race.
Looking for Racism. Liberals are expanding
the definition of racism to silence their political opponents and justify their expansive claims on power. [...] Liberals
have thus found a powerful weapon in critical race theory, whereby they view society's problems through the lens of race and
presume structural racism. Starting with the disparate impact theory — which can identify racism even in the
absence of intent — liberals have now expanded racism to include microaggressions individuals are not even aware
they are committing because of implicit bias. Rather than first eliminating the far more real and harmful effects of
explicit bias, proponents claim a majority of Americans evidence inherent bias. Shifting the focus from the evil acts
of individual racists, liberals now assign culpability to society at large and millions of unwitting Americans. They've
even changed the definition of racism to include recently lauded behaviors (e.g., rewarding effort in a meritocracy),
allowing liberals to keep their political opponents in a constant defensive crouch and demand increasingly intrusive remedies
such as reparations, mandatory corporate training sessions, and repressive speech codes.
The
Police Defunding Foundation Behind Kamala Harris. [Scroll down] When Maya Harris, Kamala's sister and a
close advisor, was chosen to head the ACLU of Northern California, [Quinn] Delaney made the announcement as the chair of its
board of directors. The head of the Akonadi Foundation, Lateefah Simon, is a close friend of Kamala's. The two
women have campaigned for each other and Kamala has been described as Lateefah's mentor. Delaney and Jordan don't just
donate to candidates: they finance radical leftist causes. Proposition 16, the push to legalize racial
discrimination using affirmative action in California, was financed by millions of dollars from them. But their biggest
vehicle was the Akonadi Foundation named after an African goddess. Fueled by critical race theory, the Akonadi
Foundation declared that it was out to stop "structural racism" which it defined as the "privileges associated with
whiteness". Quinn Delaney is white. Her son, TMG Fresh, enjoys a privilege that not only includes two
mansions, but also blonde cornrows, and rapping, "let me give you some advice, it might just save your life" and "that's
called cappin where I'm from". Where he's from is a suburban mansion in the Bay Area where they call that
appropriation. But the Akonadi Foundation has poured millions into pro-crime projects, critical race theory agitprop,
and radical Marxist groups interlinked with the racist Black Lives Matter movement. Akonadi boss Lateefah Simon is not
only closely connected to Kamala, but she also serves as an advisor to Governor Newsom. And Newsom appointed her to a
task force on "police reform". Simon, who also serves as BART's board president, pushed a move to defund the police by
shifting money from officers on the transit system to "unarmed ambassadors". When her attacks on police officers were
criticised, she falsely accused a board director of racism.
Pandering:
Biden Campaign Launches a 'Rap Ad' Aimed at Blacks. The Biden-Harris campaign on Tuesday dropped a new ad
called "Ultimate Rap League Biden GOTV" featuring rappers DNA and Charlie Clips. It's clear the intention of the ad is
to pander to Black Americans in hopes of getting them to vote for the Democratic ticket. "You know why I don't
vote? Because, as a black man, I just feel like there's no hope. Our president telling us for people to go back
to 'China,' taking the coronavirus as a joke, and that's the part that frightens me," Clips explained. "When you choose
the president it's supposed to be a knock out, then why doesn't this situation enticen me? If you got the answers to
get me out this dark path, my brotha, enlighten me." DNA explained that under a Biden-Harris administration homeownership
would be obtainable for Blacks. He also said that Blacks can't favor Obamacare but then vote for Trump.
Biden's
Self-serving Lies. Yesterday (October 13), The New York Post outed yet another self-serving Joe Biden
lie. Biden recently claimed that when he was a teenager, he regularly attended church services at the (black) Union
Baptist Church in Wilmington, Delaware. Biden has claimed he did this because he identified with blacks' struggle for
Civil Rights, so he became a Civil Rights organizer at this church. But people from the church deny that it ever
happened. Biden stated this lie to a crowd of parishioners at the Bethlehem Baptist Church in South Carolina on Jan.
20, telling them that on Sunday mornings, he'd first go to the 8 A.M. Catholic Mass and then went to Reverend Herring's
church to help them organize their Civil Rights plans. He said, "I got my education, for real, in the black church, and
that's not hyperbole. It's a fact." [...] But it simply isn't true. Congregants and a longtime assistant to
Herring at the prominent black church said they never remembered Biden attending as he claimed and said he met Herring as
an adult.
Biden
Caught in Another Lie in Desperate Bid for Black Votes. Politicians love to show how much they identify with
the average voter. It's part of their schtick to drop names and act the role of a glad-handing drinking buddy.
For Democrats, especially, the working-class persona is much coveted on the campaign trail. But Biden has continuously
lied about his past. He claims to have been the first in his family to go to college. He claims his father worked
in a coal mine. And on and on. [...] Lying politicians are a given. But fabricating an entire past is virtually
unheard of. Joe Biden apparently lies as easily about his past as he does about his agenda. And that spells
trouble for America if he's elected.
How
California Is Turning Into a State Governed by Identity Politics. If you thought racial identity politics were
just a fleeting flirtation of the radical left, California's new laws suggest otherwise. On Sept. 30, California
Gov. Gavin Newsom signed into state law a bill setting up a nine-member board to study the amount of reparations that
should be owed to black people for slavery and Jim Crow. [...] But that's hardly the only racially divisive law California
has passed this year, since the Legislature convened in a coronavirus-racked session in June. The same day, Newsom
signed a bill to establish diversity quotas on corporate boards for racial minorities. Corporations with between four
and nine board members will now be required to have at least two racial minorities, while corporations with more than nine
board members will be required to have at least three represented.
NYT's
Astor: Literally Any Criticism of Kamala Is Racist and Sexist. After Wednesday's [10/7/2020]
vice-presidential debate, the press was full of defensive accusations against Vice President Mike Pence for his alleged
"mansplaining" behavior against Joe Biden's running mate Kamala Harris. The New York Times in particular has made that
particular Harris-as-victim trope a central theme of its campaign coverage, desperately turning every conservative argument
against Harris into proof of her opponents' underlying racism and sexism.
Donald
Trump to Rush Limbaugh: When We Are Beating the Left They Call Us Racist. President Donald Trump on
Friday [10/9/2020] defended himself and his supporters against allegations that they were "racist." Trump spoke about
the left during a virtual radio rally with talk radio legend Rush Limbaugh on Friday, in response to a question from a
listener. "When we are beating them they have nothing else to fall back on but the word racist," he said. "It means
that when you're winning [...], they have nothing else to say, they call you a racist and this has been going on for decades."
Are Americans Tired of Being
Called 'Racist' Yet? What is "racism," and why do Democrats so relentlessly accuse Americans of it? It is
necessary to put scare-quotes around "racism" nowadays, because the word has been quite nearly stripped of meaning by its
constant overuse as a political epithet. Depending on the context, sometimes "racist" is merely a synonym for white
person (which seems to be the message of Robin DiAngelo and other proponents of Critical Race Theory), but during
election season in the United States, it seems that "racist" is synonymous with Republican. It is this purely
partisan definition of "racist" that former First Lady Michelle Obama demonstrated this week in a remarkable 26-minute video
campaign ad for Joe Biden. Mrs. Obama heaped praise on the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement as "an overwhelmingly
peaceful movement for racial solidarity." In fact, BLM is an avowedly Marxist revolutionary organization that has inspired
the murder of police officers and incited violent riots nationwide. Of course, anyone who points out this fact is
immediately subject to denunciation as a "racist," and the purpose of Mrs. Obama's video was to point the finger at
President Trump.
Michelle
Obama: Trump and Allies Are 'Stoking Fears about Black and Brown Americans'. Former first lady Michelle
Obama offered a closing argument on behalf of Joe Biden (D) on Tuesday, telling viewers in a 24-minute speech that "our
country is in chaos because of a president who isn't up to the job" and whose administration and allies are "stoking fears
about Black and Brown Americans." Obama delivered an impassioned 24-minute speech to the American people, pleading with
them to support the former vice president, who she described as an experienced leader who "understands the struggles of
everyday folks" and has the ability to end the "chaos" across the country.
Michelle
Obama calls Donald Trump 'racist' as she pleads with undecided voters. Joe Biden's campaign released a slashing
video endorsement by Michelle Obama Tuesday where the former first lady denounces President Trump as 'racist' and says he
'isn't up to the job.' 'Racism, fear, division — these are powerful weapons and they can destroy this nation
if we don't deal with them head on,' she says in the 24-minute video, called a 'closing argument,' where she speaks directly
to the camera. 'Let's be honest, right now our country is in chaos because of a president who isn't up to the job,' says
the popular former first lady, who also delivered an emotional pitch for Biden by video at the Democratic National Convention.
The Editor says...
[#1] She "speaks directly to the camera" because that's where the teleprompter is.
[#2] Here's an example of "a president who isn't up to the job."
Why Do Republicans Fall for the White
Supremacy Trap? As his opening gambit, Wallace asked Trump a question fully irrelevant to the state of the
nation: "Are you willing tonight to condemn white supremacists and militia groups?" "Sure," replied Trump.
The questioning should have ended there, but when Wallace persisted, Trump made the appropriate rejoinder, "Sure, I'm
prepared to do it, but I would say almost everything I see is from the left wing, not from the right wing. I'm willing
to do anything, I want to see peace." Instead of exploring the incessant left-wing violence that has crippled any number
of cities, Wallace and Biden tag-teamed Trump into an ambiguous declaration about the Proud Boys, a curiously interracial,
right-wing group 90 percent of the audience had previously not heard of, including possibly the president.
Exactly what one would expect from the KKK:
Left Targets
Barrett For Adopting Black Children. [Scroll down] The fact that Amy Barrett has adopted two black kids
makes her a "white colonizer," according to Mr. Kendi of BU. But if adopting a black child (two, in Barrett's
case) makes Barrett a "white colonizer", whose goal was to have "'civilized' these 'savage' children in the 'superior' ways
of White people" — then, quite effectively if unknowingly, Kendi has just accused Madonna, Jane Fonda, Angelina
Jolie and Brad Pitt, Charlize Theron, Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, Mariska Hargitay, Steven Spielberg and Kate Capshaw,
Sandra Bullock and all the rest on The Root's list of the same. To state the obvious — except to
Mr. Kendi — not one of the celebs deserves to be attacked like this any more than does Amy Coney
Barrett. Suffice to say, unless Kendi or anyone else comes forward with news to the contrary, one can easily believe
that all the white celebrities on this list adopted their black kids for the same reason Amy Barrett did — to love
them. The real lesson here? In the now budding drive to bork Amy Coney Barrett, nothing is off the table.
Race
Hustler Al Sharpton Singles Out Barrett Children This Way. If you thought liberal journalists and hosts were
ugly to Brett Kavanaugh, you haven't seen anything yet. Minutes after Donald Trump finished nominating Judge Amy Coney
Barrett to the Supreme Court on Saturday, MSNBC speculated on secret coded messages the President was sending to
racists. If that wasn't enough, race hustler Al Sharpton even disgustingly singled out Barrett's children. Using
the nominee's two adopted Black children as some sort of prop, Sharpton sneered, "Not to mention, that was the least diverse
audience I've ever seen in around announcement like this. I looked around — I was glad her two kids did come
out, I couldn't find too many other people of color in that audience."
The Editor says...
Race means everything to a race hustler. Taking an inventory of black faces in a crowd, and then griping about
the results on TV, is pathetic and insipid.
Andrew Cuomo
is playing with racial fire. With children being shot down in the streets all across New York — a
by-product of statewide double-digit increases in gun homicides — you'd think Gov. Cuomo would be too humbled
to lecture Kentucky about murder. Not so. Humble ain't his thing, don't you know? Arrogance is another
matter. The governor has raised that to an art form — most recently taking time out from his
coronavirus-death nursing-home deflections to hector Louisville on its handling of the Breonna Taylor shooting case.
And, in the process, offering an imprimatur-in-advance to those who believe that rioting, robbery — and even
shooting cops — is a justifiable response to controversial policing. "Breonna Taylor's death was murder,"
Cuomo declaimed Thursday [9/24/2020], with his customary degree of subtlety and reflection — which is to say, none.
Revolution 2020. [Scroll
down] The oligarchy is no more concerned about race than it is about education, or environmentalism, or sex, or
anything else. It is about yet more discretionary power in the hands of its members, for whom not all blacks (or women,
or whatevers) are to be advantaged — only the ones who serve ruling class purposes. In education,
employment, and personnel management, co-opting compatible, non-threatening colleagues is the objective. As Joseph
Biden put it succinctly: if you don't vote for him, "you ain't black." A ruling class of ever-decreasing
quality is a result.
Where was he in July?
Al
Sharpton encourages demonstrators to keep protesting, but 'keep it nonviolent'. Left-wing activist Al Sharpton

of Breonna Taylor. The MSNBC host urged activists to "continue protesting" during an interview Thursday [9/24/2020]
with anchor Hallie Jackson, but as downtown Louisville descended into a second night of protests, sometimes turning violent,
Sharpton suggested that people keep the demonstrations "nonviolent."
Joe
Biden: Voters Don't Deserve to Know Whom I'd Appoint to Supreme Court. Joe Biden told a Milwaukee
television station on Monday that voters do not deserve to know whom he would appoint to the Supreme Court. After
acknowledging he has a list of potential nominees, Joe Biden told TMJ 4 he simply is not going to share it. [...] He admitted
the first selection was based on race and gender: a black woman. But beyond that, he would not provide additional
details.
Joe
Biden's Supreme Court shortlist: White people need not apply. The United States is a diverse nation, and
there's nothing wrong with wanting our government to include people from all walks of life and perspectives. But in
fashion sadly typical for today's Democratic Party, Joe Biden just responded to the death of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader
Ginsburg with an extreme invocation of identity politics. His regressive approach to filling her seat sabotages true
diversity and progress. Biden has explicitly made it clear that white women and men of all races need not apply for his
Supreme Court shortlist. "I'm looking forward to making sure there's a black woman on the Supreme Court," he said on
the Democratic debate stage in February. "I'd push very hard for that."

more traditional and with a larger network. The BLM group originated during the terms of the Obama
administration. The AME network has existed for many decades before. [...] Immediately before the South Carolina
primary, Barack Obama (BLM network) and the traditional racial apparatus (AME network) realized they were about to lose
control to Bernie Sanders. Their response was to quickly coordinate a club move to swing the election away from the
Sanders camp. An urgent assembly of all party control officers was called. The power brokers within the DNC Club
designed a plan around using James Clyburn (AME network) as the official spark for Joe Biden to take back control of the
primary outcome. Former President Obama contacted all candidates and informed them when and how they would quit the
race and fall-in-line behind Joe Biden. James Clyburn was then triggered to initiate his endorsement and begin the
rapid-fire process. Within 48 hours all members of the club and candidates had their instructions and proceeded to
follow-through on the plan. They had no choice. If they did not comply they would suffer the consequences of a
fully aligned club hierarchy who would target them personally and financially. The plan worked flawlessly.
The left isn't fighting
against fascism, they are fighting FOR authoritarianism. They claim that their political message transcends the
law; that it allows them to control cities; that it allows them to destroy property; that it justifies their designs on
canceling heretics; that it permits them to block roads, create no-go zones for non-rioters, prosecute those who stand
against them while themselves avoiding persecution. [...] They decide what hate is; what racism is; who is unclean; who is
deserving of both punishment and reverence. They presume to control and police every narrative, and in that way,
control and police every person. They reduce you to your skin color, your "gender" — but mostly, to your
politics: individualism, respect for rule of law, constitutional order and the color-blind equanimity that comes with
it — all of these things are reduced to the cancer of "whiteness." "Systemic racism" is their empty
catechism; it creates a Kafka trap in which you are defined by your original sin of birth, but you can neither receive
absolution or forgiveness.
Every
Card is the Race Card, But They're Not Playing with a Full Deck. In 2020, there is no such apprehension, or
even hesitation, from Democrats when it comes to infusing race into any argument. There is no topic, no person, and no
group that is off-limits. There also seems to be a direct correlation between the weakness of their argument on a
particular issue and the vociferousness with which the race card is played in defending it. Voter ID laws, for
instance, vary by state and apply equally along all racial lines; there is no evidence that such laws are racist. But
that did not stop Joe Biden from stating, "It's what these guys are all about, man. Republicans don't want
working-class people voting. They don't want black folks voting." No evidence, just the race card, and our
leftwing/mainstream media did not even challenge him on his assertion.
Kamala
Harris's embrace of Jacob Blake is the latest blow to #MeToo. It's been quite a week for Kamala Harris.
In addition to promulgating anti-vaccination conspiracy theories about any coronavirus vaccine released during the Trump
presidency, she met with the family of Jacob Blake, a man famous for fleeing from the police with his children in tow when he
violated an existing restraining order after being charged with sexual assault. Blake has been famously lionized by the
Left after being shot by the police when officers tried to arrest him as he reached in his car (telling them after the
shooting that he had a knife, according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel). Unlike the deaths of Breonna Taylor
and George Floyd, both of whom did not pose a semblance of deadly threats to officers and were preventable, it's unclear if
any feasible policy change would have prevented Blake's shooting. After all, Blake subverted multiple nonlethal
attempts to subdue him, and by all available evidence, the police in question only resorted to shooting him when the officers
had reasonable suspicion that he was reaching for a knife.
The Riot Party. [Scroll down] During
the Rodney King riots even George H. W. Bush stated that "the rioters' grievances were justified and would be rectified by
federal prosecutors." During these years and throughout the years of the Great Society, Democratic members of Congress frequently
warned that a failure to fund inner-city youth programs would result in "long, hot summers" — meaning summers of sustained
riots, all caused by a refusal to extend the largesse of the welfare state to specially protected clients of the administrative state.
This rhetoric (or rather, this thinly disguised blackmail) was common among the Great Society supporters who sought to enlarge their reach
and power by any means. Maxine Waters, Congresswoman from Los Angeles and now a prominent supporter of BLM and Antifa, referred to
the Rodney King riots at the time as a "rebellion," implying that they were a justified reaction of the black community against the endemic
injustice of white supremacy that dominates American society.
The
Democrats Pick the Criminal. On Aug. 23, 29-year-old Jacob Blake, a black man, was shot seven times in the back
by a white police officer. The original video, which only included the last moments of the incident, gave no context
for the incident. But further video and police reports made clear what happened. [...] There was an open warrant on
Blake for third-degree felony sexual assault; the alleged victim is the woman who dialed 911, and she apparently had a
restraining order against Blake. [...] Upon arriving at the scene, the police attempted to effectuate an arrest. Blake
resisted. He apparently got one of the officers in a headlock and resisted two separate uses of a stun gun. He
then disobeyed officer commands, walked around to the driver's side of an SUV and reached inside. A knife was found on
the driver's side floorboards. This is the definition of a justified shoot, by all available evidence. Yet
Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden and vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris have chosen to side with an alleged
rapist and against police officers attempting to do their job.
The
left's awkward lionization of Jacob Blake. When we first learned that Kenosha resident Jacob Blake was offering
his first interviews and sending out video messages from the hospital after being shot by the police in Kenosha, I noted a
somewhat fawning tone to the media coverage he was getting. This left me wondering about the other people involved in
his story, particularly the alleged victims of his past criminal behavior. [...] Judging by the thousands of combined
retweets and likes that message received, I didn't seem to be the only one raising these nagging questions. None of
these issues slowed down the rest of our major media outlets, however.
By
Hailing Jacob Blake As A Hero, Democrats Have Marginalized His Alleged Rape And Abuse Victim. Kamala Harris is
the latest high-profile Democrat to meet with and pay homage to Jacob Blake and his family. After speaking with them
for an hour, Harris gushed to reporters that Blake Sr., known for ranting about "Jews" and "crackers" on social media, and
Blake Jr., accused of drunkenly abusing a woman over the course of several years before finally breaking into her house and
raping her, are "incredible." Blake family attorney Benjamin Crump, a man for whom the term "ambulance chaser" was
invented, issued a press release after the visit, providing more details about the kumbaya session. [...] Now would be a good
time to remind ourselves why Blake Jr. finds himself in a position where he must "work through his pain."
Joe Biden Tries
to Cancel Thomas Edison. A Joe Biden terrified that the African-American vote is slipping away from the party
of pandering made an absurd claim during a rare day trip from his basement bunker to Kenosha, Wisconsin. At least his
handlers were able to find and lead him to Wisconsin, which Hillary Clinton failed to do in 2016. Biden had just
finished a meeting with the family of Jacob Blake, the young African-American wanted on a felony warrant for sexual abuse
shot after struggling with police. As part of his portrayal of the Trump administration as oppressors of blacks and
white people as guardians of systemic racism, even if it is Democrats who run the system where urban unrest is occurring,
Biden decided to add another wrinkle — whites are stealing credit for African-American inventions.
Prof.
Biden Claims 'a Black Man Invented the Light Bulb, Not a White Guy Named Edison.'. Joe Biden, who claims he
wants to fact-check Donald Trump in real time during the presidential debates, told a real whopper on Thursday during his
visit to Kenosha. "People fear that's, which, that which is different. We gotta, for example, why [...] don't we
teach history in history classes? A black man invented the light bulb, not a white guy named Edison." Fact check:
False. Make no mistake about it, Thomas Edison invented the light bulb.
Biden
Meets With Antisemitic, Farrakhan-Loving Father Of Jacob Blake. Jacob Blake Sr. — the father of a
Jacob Blake, a black man who was shot four times by police in Kenosha, WI while violating a restraining order for felony sexual
assault — is a giant antisemite, anti-Christian, and loves Islamic hate-preacher Louis Farrakhan. And if you're
Joe Biden looking to pander to 'woke' Democrats, you meet with said antisemite on Thursday in a bid to score political points
over the now-paralyzed Blake Jr., whose shooting sparked violent riots in Kenosha and added gasoline to anti-police protests
sweeping the country. Blake Sr., a frequent CNN guest and presence at Black Lives Matter protests since the shooting,
has a history of making bigoted comments over social media — which Biden apparently doesn't mind.
Biden
to meet with Blake Sr who appears anti-Semitic, racist, anti-Christian. Joe Biden is set to meet with Jacob
Blake's father today. Blake Sr. is a Farrakhan devotée. He is also an anti-Semitic, anti-Christian, white
hater. Breitbart linked to tweets and copied memes posted by Blake Sr. over the course of years. What does it say
about Biden that he is meeting with him? Blake is the father of the man shot and wounded in Kenosha by a police
officer. Blake Sr.'s social media posts, particularly on Facebook, reveal radical political views and extreme racist
rhetoric. On Instagram, where Blake Sr. appears to have had a much more limited presence, he posted a video about the
Sep. 11, 2001 terror attacks: "Man, I give a fuck about 9/11." He went on to cite the killing of 12-year-old
Tamir Rice by police in Cleveland in 2014.
Biden's Intended Race on Race.
[Scroll down] Fast-forward nine months later. Biden and Harris are again sharing a stage. This time, it is
at the Democratic National Convention's closing; Harris is now Biden's running mate and Biden has just given his nomination
acceptance speech. Biden's speech told America all we needed to know about why Biden chose Harris — despite
their acrimonious past — and where Biden intends to take his campaign over the next two months. If Joe has
his way, this will be a race on race. His acceptance speech's first words, after "good evening," were "Ella Baker, a
giant of the civil rights movement, left us with this wisdom: Give people light and they will find a way. Give
people light, those are words for our time." Having connected his campaign message with "light," he would use "light"
repeatedly throughout his 25-minute address. Although lacking specifics, his subliminal racial message was clear:
I am the anti-racist; if you are not with me, you are a racist or condone racism.
The
Biden 2020 Message: Republicans Are All Racists, Now Let's Unite! The Joe Biden being presented to the
public for election to the highest office in the land does not exist in reality. The empathetic, benevolent grandpa
story is cut from whole cloth and easily disputable by anyone with access to Google and a compulsion for honesty. The
latter rules out the mainstream media, obviously. [...] Many like to attribute his current unpredictability on camera to his
obvious cognitive decline but the truth is that he has been like this forever. I distinctly remember many of my
conservative friends thinking that Biden's erratic behavior was amusing when he was vice president. I always thought it
rather disturbing that someone that unstable was one heartbeat away from the presidency. If you've been feeling a
smidge nauseated in recent months, it may be due to the Democrats' insistence that Joe Biden is a man of great character who
would restore dignity to the presidency.
The
Mind-Bendingly Insane, Completely Craven, Utterly Unconscionable Redemption of Al Sharpton. This past weekend,
the Jewish Council for Public Affairs, an umbrella group uniting 125 local Jewish communities and 17 national Jewish
organizations, sent an email to its followers proudly announcing that it has signed on as a partner in the Virtual March on
Washington this week, an event organized by Al Sharpton. Because last week also marked the 29th anniversary of the
Crown Heights riots, it's worth it to stop and recall that among his many distinctions — MSNBC pundit, and an
adviser who reportedly regularly speaks to Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, collector of innumerable sateen
suits — Al Sharpton is also currently America's only living pogrom leader. After a car driven by a Hasidic
Jew accidentally swerved and struck a young African American boy, killing him, hundreds of the neighborhood's Black residents
rioted in the streets, chanting "death to the Jews!" as well as looting stores, attacking anyone who was visibly Jewish, and
ripping mezuzot off of door posts. Sharpton was quick to arrive on the scene, leading a march in which participants
burned an Israeli flag and called to kill all Jews. At the young boy's funeral a few days later, Sharpton delivered a
eulogy that borrowed heavily from The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, saying that the Jewish residents of the
neighborhood practiced "apartheid" and were there only to further the Jewish global grip on money and power. He ended
by ominously shouting: "pay for your deeds."
The Truth
of Kamala Harris. Living in California, I have seen first hand what damage has been done to our State and the
dishonesty of [Kamala] Harris in the ability that she possesses in the advancement of her goals. Two points that are
being pushed on the American people by both the Progressive socialists and the media is that 1. Harris was disadvantaged
in her childhood and 2. That she is a black woman. I have known for a long time that Harris will say whatever she
needs to to get head and has lied consistently in her approach. She is using talking points in an attempt to play the
victim for the American people. In an attempt to gather the black vote so badly needed by the progressive socialist
Democrats who they can no longer depend on, she claims to be African American when she has absolutely no connection to
African Americans. She is Jamaican and Indian. She never mention that her father is descended from a sugar
planter in Jamaica named Hamilton Brown who was a slave owner. Black voters in this election cycle are disgusted
at the race baiting of Harris and the cynicism of the leftists that take the black vote for granted.
MSNBC
Blames Racism for Voters Preferring Trump on Economy. Once again proving that the liberal media can interpret
an ulterior motive of racism by conservatives into any issue, MSNBC host Katy Tur and MSNBC Republican contributor Michael
Steele hinted on Tuesday afternoon [8/18/2020] that racism has the reason why so many voters have told pollsters they prefer
President Donald Trump to better handle the economy than Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden. As the two
discussed why Trump still has high ratings on the economy despite the decline it has taken since the pandemic, the two talked
in circles a bit before Steele finally suggested that it was the "ugliness" of suburban whites not wanting minorities moving
into their neighborhoods that was driving pro-Trump sentiment expressed to pollsters.
Biracial
Kamala's appeal to the Dems' African American base? Does anyone believe that if she were white, Kamala Harris
would have been chosen as Joe Biden's veep? Toward the end of the deadline for naming the running mate, it became clear
that darker-than-Caucasian skin tone was a prerequisite in the eyes of a substantial faction of the party when a Gretchen
Whitmer trial balloon was floated and quickly fell to earth. In the end Kamala Harris, daughter of Tamil and Jamaican
immigrants, was deemed by Biden's handlers to be acceptably melanin-rich.
Biden
Repeats Charlottesville Lie in Dishonest and Divisive DNC Acceptance Speech. Before Barack Obama became
president, most Americans weren't aware that racism from our nation's past was still a major stain on our national
character. Most Americans thought we had gotten past all that and were happy to live in the colorblind society Martin
Luther King envisioned. However, since 2012, Democrats have sought to stir racial tensions and remind White America
every day of our racist past, our current "systemic racism" and a whole host of racial sins, including white privilege, white
oppression and white fragility. It's very unlikely that Democrats will be willing to give up this politically expedient
narrative anytime soon.
NOW
Board Member Accused of Posing as Woman of Color to Boost Re-Election Chances. This year's board elections at
the National Organization for Women were already poised to be tense: Allegations of racism at the highest levels of the
feminist group have infuriated its membership and pitted current board members against one another. Now, the election
is threatening to be completely upended by allegations that a candidate is claiming to be a woman of color in order to boost
her election prospects. NOW members told The Daily Beast they were shocked when BJ Star, a current board member,
identified herself as Asian-American in campaign materials. Star, born Barbara Bencsik, had never identified herself as
such in previous campaigns, and lists herself as white in voter registrations dating back to 1984.
'He
better pick a Black woman': Biden faces Whitmer backlash. Anticipation has been growing for weeks that Joe
Biden will make history by choosing the first Black woman as a running mate on a major party's presidential ticket. But
after news broke over the weekend that Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, a white woman, had flown to meet with Biden to
discuss the vice presidency, frustration and disappointment boiled over among Black female Democrats — including
some in her own state. "He better pick a black woman. If he picks Gretchen, he'll lose Michigan," said Virgie
Rollins, chair of the Democratic National Committee Black Caucus, who hosted Biden at her home before his Michigan primary
win this spring.
The Truth
About Slavery. We are continually misled by progressive propaganda on the issue of race. Misinformation
bleeds over to the conservative realm as well. The media, Hollywood, and academia are consumed with race, tribalism,
and hatred for our Founding. The real agenda here is power, divide and conquer to pursue some ill-conceived
Utopia. The truth is that violence is part of the Left's playbook. They are opportunists and provocateurs ready
for any excuse to attack our freedom. Much of the violence we see is a planned political strategy taking advantage of
the crisis du jour. Racism is not our Achilles Heel. It is the ubiquitous manipulation and exploitation of race
and racism that threatens our way of life. Political operatives masquerading as journalists feed the hate 24/7.
De
Blasio: Painting BLM Murals My Decision That 'Transcends All Normal Realities' — Anyone Else Who Wants Mural
Has to Apply. During a press conference on Monday [8/3/2020], New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) stated
that painting Black Lives Matter street murals was a "decision I made" and that the decision on the murals "transcends all
normal realities." But that others who want to paint murals must apply, and "the normal process continues for anyone who
wants to apply."
Insane:
Seattle Moves to Abolish Entire Police Force. Well, it may be time to deploy the military to Seattle after all
because what local lawmakers are doing is nothing short of allowing the city to be engulfed in violence and anarchy.
They're moving to abolish the police. It's not defunding. It's a total dissolution. Non-profit programs and
"community-led activities" will replace policing. Why? Well, according to the resolution, the Seattle Police
Department perpetuates racism and violence. Oh, yes, and it's a vehicle of white supremacy. It's typical 'woke'
nonsense, and it's a cancer that's killing America.
Listening to Ward Connerly
on Racism. Ward Connerly, a civil rights leader who is older and wiser than I, writing in the Wall Street
Journal over the weekend, asserts that there is no such thing as institutional racism in America. Frankly, I am
relieved, because I have lived in this country for decades, and it has been some 40 years since I encountered a racist,
a white supremacist, or even a Euro-maniac. I have encountered some left-wingers — once politely called
liberals — who are obsessed with race, but even these troubled souls I do not consider racists, though some might
be. They are more properly referred to as bigots, and intolerant bigots at that. They, of course, call anyone who
might disagree with them "racists," but I have tried to verify their charges from time to time, and I have been
unsuccessful. They, as a rule, present no evidence that race is even at issue. In point of fact, I have found
that in debate the first person who brings up the matter of race is usually the real racist. For instance, if I were
debating Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton, either one might bring up the question of race before I would utter the word, and Al
might talk about nothing else.
'Uncle
Tom': A Quiet Earthquake. Albert Einstein once said that if he had an hour to solve a problem, he'd spend 55
minutes thinking about the problem, and five thinking about the solution. The "race problem" in America is pretzeled
into such a Gordian knot because we've spent decades thinking up solutions to a problem that no longer exists. And it's
not working. Black oppression is dead in America. The good guys won. [...] For decades we've spent trillions to
implement anti-discrimination policies and poverty programs. America is home to the wealthiest group of blacks, likely,
in all of history. Black mayors, black police chiefs, black law enforcers, black attorneys, black school officials and
black politicians are stuffed into every crevice of city and state governments across the nation. A black man was
elected to Earth's most powerful office — twice! Yet somehow, the screech for "racial justice" is louder
now than it was when black oppression was real. Race will always be a ticking time bomb as long as America buys
into the Al Sharpton version of the black experience — that blacks are still hobbled by race-based inequities
rooted in slavery.
Beam Me Up,
Please. Every few years it seems that the Democrats gin up riots in response to the death of a black criminal
at the hands of the police. And each time the media play along. I don't need to remind you of the Holder DoJ
stirring up the Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown cases, which fell apart before juries when the facts were finally presented
in open court. Not before the false tales precipitated substantial destruction to lives and property —
largely of those minorities living in the areas of these incidents. This time, the race baiting has gone beyond
targeting the individual citizens and cops involved to argue that there is systemic racism in law enforcement. And the
claim has been the rallying cry of the Black Lives Matter gangs.
Rioters
Are Using Racial Discontent to Promote a Marxist Agenda. [Scroll down] It has become clear that it
matters little to the Marxists and anarchists what a statue or monument represents. All that matters to them is that it
represents America's past, and therefore, it must come down. It's also clear that they're not interested in resolving
race issues. Destroying monuments, burning churches, and looting businesses do nothing to bring attention to racism or
to advance police reforms. They're simply using racial discontent to forward their Marxist agenda. Meanwhile,
spineless politicians who agree with the rioters' agenda, if not their tactics, have told police to stand down. After
rioters in Baltimore recently tore down a statue of Christopher Columbus and tossed it into the harbor, House Speaker Nancy
Pelosi, a Baltimore native, blithely excused the behavior, telling reporters, "People will do what they do." Many of these
mal-educated rioters and politicians believe everything about America's past is based in racism. They are fed this lie
in schools and by institutions like The New York Times, which claims with great historical illiteracy in its 1619 Project
that this country wasn't founded based on humanity's highest ideals in 1776, but rather in 1619, when the first slaves were
brought to the New World. The Times even absurdly asserts that the Revolutionary War wasn't fought to gain our
independence but to keep slavery alive in the colonies.
Democratic
National Committee platform mentions 'whites' 15 times, all [condemnatory]. The draft 2020 Democratic National
Committee platform being circulated in Washington aims to reinforce the view that liberals are best situated to battle for
minorities seeking higher wages, better housing and jobs, and more money for schools. With the August convention coming
on the heels of the Black Lives Matter protests, it features support for the movement and an expanded pledge to root out
racism. The preamble says, "We will give hate no safe harbor. We will never amplify or legitimize the voices of
bigotry, racism, misogyny, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, or white supremacy." In promising change, it sets up one group
that has it too good and is holding minorities back: whites. In more than 80 pages in the draft platform published
by Politico, whites are mentioned 15 times, all critical, including three references to white supremacy or supremacists and
one to white nationalists. The document doesn't capitalize white as it does Black, Latinos, Asian Americans, and Native
Americans.
Draft
DNC Platform Declares White Americans Too Rich, Too Privileged, and Too Evil. The Democrat National Committee
draft platform for its 2020 convention mentions "whites" a total of 15 times, each of them within a "damning"
context — a detail first noticed by the Washington Examiner's Paul Bedard. "In more than 80 pages in
the draft platform published by Politico, whites are mentioned 15 times, all critical, including three references to white
supremacy or supremacists and one to white nationalists," Bedard writes. He adds, "In most mentions, the reference is
to how whites are better off at the expense of others. And the promise often is to 'close the gap' between minorities
and whites, though no solutions are offered." If this is a legitimate draft, the fact that it's a merely a draft means
nothing. It still reveals how ugly the Democrat Party has become and how ugly and divisive the future will be, should
this approach to national politics ever prevail.
Biden's Buffoonery Upends the Left's Foundational Argument
on 'Systemic Racism'. In his zeal to throw every hyperbolic superlative at the wall to criticize Donald Trump,
Joe Biden has unwittingly undermined one of the foundational principles guiding the Democrats' attack on the American
system. The setting was yet another of Biden's basement video conferences watched by hardly anyone, except perhaps the
Trump campaign's war room which seems poised to point out every nonsensical utterance of the Democrats' presumptive nominee
for president. Biden, wishing to pile-on the already over-the-top "Trump is literally Hitler!" attacks on his opponent,
proclaimed that Trump is "the first racist president in history." It's a lie on multiple levels, which makes it so
perfectly Bidenesque. But, Biden making this claim has inspired a hilarious response from the radical left in the
Democratic Party, you know, Biden's base. You see, if Trump is our first racist president, then how can we possibly
have a "systemically racist" country and system of government?
The
deep state smear machine's racist meme. On Wednesday [7/22/2020], former Vice President Joe Biden called
President Donald Trump the first racist president in U.S. history. Biden claimed, "The way he deals with people based
on the color of their skin, their national origin, where they're from, is absolutely sickening. No sitting president
has ever done this, never, never, never." He further stated, "the way he pits people against one another is all
designed to divide the country, divide people, not pull them together." Charges of racism will dramatically increase as we
near the 2020 elections. The Democratic Party appears to be losing its grip on the Black vote and they must double down
on the racist theme. The Deep State Smear Machine has been very successful. It has convinced millions of
Americans that Trump is a racist.
Senate
passes veto-proof bill that will strip Confederate names from military bases. The Senate on Thursday
[7/23/2020] passed a $740 billion defense spending bill that includes a provision to remove the name of Confederate
leaders from military bases — setting up a showdown with President Trump who is opposed to the move. The
GOP-controlled chamber overwhelming passed the legislation with a vote of 81 to 14 — well over the number required
to override the presidential veto which Trump threatened to wield last month in a bid to stop the bill. The National
Defense Authorization Act includes a plan to change the names of army bases named after Confederate soldiers, such as Fort
Bragg in North Carolina and Fort Benning in Georgia, which are named after Confederate Gens. Braxton Bragg and Henry
Lewis Benning.
I
Looked Up Every Case of an Unarmed Black Man Shot by Cops in 2019. Here's the Truth the Media and BLM are
Hiding. I have already made the case that systemic racism in law enforcement is a myth. The claim that
racist police are prowling the street searching for black men to murder is absurd on its face, and even absurder when you
look at the facts. It is by now well publicized — at least in some corners — that, despite all of
the panicking and rioting over race-based police brutality, only a very small number of unarmed black men are killed by
police each year. But an even closer look at the data, and a study of each "unarmed" killing, reveals that the real
number of unjustified police shootings of actual unarmed people — black, white, or any other race — is
much smaller still. First, to put the statistics into perspective, it's helpful to begin with the overall number of
arrests. According to the DOJ, police make about 10 million arrests each year. As a rough average,
7 million of the arrested suspects are white and 3 million are black. Out of that number, last year, 25
unarmed white people were killed by police, compared to 14 unarmed black people, according to the Washington Post database of
police shootings. That means about .0004 percent of all blacks arrested were killed while unarmed. The percentage
for whites is comparable. In total, 1,000 people were shot and killed by police in 2019, the vast majority of whom were
armed. Still, that's a mere .01 percent of all arrests.
Trump
is the first racist president, Biden says. Never mind the slaveholders: Joe Biden asserted that President
Trump is the first racist to be elected president. At a virtual event for the Service Employees International Union on
Wednesday, Biden received a question from a California-based SEIU member, a South Korean immigrant, who said that she no
longer says hello to strangers due to the coronavirus, citing racist reactions that she believed Trump's "China virus"
comments and attitudes contributed to. "What President Trump has done in going his — his spreading of
racism, the way he deals with people based on the color of their skin, their national origin, where they're from, is
absolutely sickening," Biden said.
Dem Rep.
Bobby Rush claims Trump 'wants to instigate a race war'. Democratic Rep. Bobby Rush on Wednesday accused
President Trump of wanting to "instigate a race war" so he could say he was the "grand wizard of the Klu Klux Klan."
"That's Trump's game plan. Trump wants to instigate a race war," the Illinois Democrat claimed during an appearance on
"The Joe Madison Show" on SiriusXM Wednesday morning [7/22/2020]. "So he can rise up and say, 'I'm the real grand
wizard of the Klu Klux Klan and I'm the President. Reelect me.' That's what he's trying to do. "He's trying
to play to the fears, to the racial animus that exists among certain White people, and he will do everything and anything to
do that, because he wants to be reelected at all costs," Rush continued.
From Asheville to Trashville.
Tucked away in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains, Asheville, NC would be a little slice of paradise if it weren't infested
with Marxist bluehairs transplanted from the Northeast who see it as their solemn moral obligation to carpetbag the local
blacks into endless frothing fury about the supposed indignities of being black in America, as if it's not measurably better
than being black anywhere else on the planet. Asheville's mayor, Esther Manheimer, wasn't even born in America.
Despite the fact that the town is nearly 80% white, there is only one white male on its seven-member City Council.
There are two blacks, and as is the wont of black politicians, their entire political world consists of endlessly announcing
their blackness to startled passersby.
Bill de Blasio uses police
to guard 'Black Lives Matter' mural as NYC violence continues. New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio continues to
ignore the violence sweeping his city, and is instead obsessed with a mural he helped paint on 5th Avenue. Reading
"Black Lives Matter" in big yellow letters, the mural is a personal vanity project for the mayor, as well as a testament to
de Blasio's desire to stick it to US President Donald Trump. To this end, he has apparently stationed the 1st and 8th
NYPD divisions to guard the thing as though it were a priceless work of art at the MoMA.
Minneapolis
City Council declares racism a public health emergency. The Minneapolis City Council declared racism a public
health emergency in the city Friday, vowing to allocate funding and other resources to "name, reverse, and repair the harm
done" to people of color in the city. The resolution was unanimously approved nearly two months after George Floyd, a
Black man, was killed by Minneapolis police while in custody in south Minneapolis. Days after his death, Council Vice
President Andrea Jenkins called on the council to define racism as a public health crisis. During a committee meeting
last week, Jenkins said Floyd's killing, Black people's vulnerability to the corona-virus and racial gaps in homeownership
are issues that have "been deeply agreed upon that at the core is racism."
De
Blasio's Hissy Fit Continues: Personally Participates in Painting 'Black Lives Matter' in Front of Trump
Tower. Bill de Blasio being Bill de Blasio. Donald Trump being Donald Trump. Grab the popcorn,
folks — things are about to get interesting. The New York City mayor not only moved ahead Thursday
[7/9/2020] with his earlier-announced plan to have a mural with the words "Black Lives Matter" painted on Fifth Avenue, right
in front of Trump Tower; the embattled mayor is doing some of the painting, his own petty self.
Seattle
held 'segregated' training session on 'undoing whiteness,' encouraged staffers to forfeit 'guaranteed physical
safety'. The City of Seattle held a racially segregated employee training session aimed at White staffers and
instructing them on "undoing your own whiteness" in order to be held accountable by people of color, according to documents
obtained by a public records request. The session took place on June 12, as protesters took part in the so-called
"Capitol Hill Organized Protest" in the Capitol Hill district. One handout distributed in the session declared how
"racism is not our fault but we are responsible." Another said White staffers must give up "the land" and their
"guaranteed physical safety" in order to be an "accomplice" for racial justice.
Nancy
Pelosi: 'Our Caucus... is More Than 60 Percent Women, People of Color and LGBTQ'. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi
(D.-Calif.) on Monday [7/6/2020] joined with Democratic Caucus Chairman Hakeem Jeffries (D.-N.Y.) and Caucus Procedures Chair
Grace Meng (D.-N.Y.) in issuing a statement about the Democratic Caucus' new "Diversity Rule." "House Democrats take
great pride in the beautiful diversity of our Caucus, which is more than 60 percent women, people of color and LGBTQ," said
Pelosi, Jeffries and Meng said in the statement. "One of our Caucus's top priorities has long been to promote diversity
at every level of Congress, so that these halls better reflect the dynamism and vibrancy of the American people whom we are
privileged to represent," they said.
The Editor says...
Apparently Ms. Pelosi thinks white men are not dynamic or vibrant enough to serve as elected representatives. What's the
difference between that and bigotry?/p>
Hennepin
County commissioners pass resolution declaring racism a public health crisis. Tuesday [6/30/2020], the Hennepin
County Board of Commissioners passed a resolution declaring racism a public health crisis. "Due to racism, Black,
Indigenous and people of color in Hennepin County statistically have poorer educational outcomes, earn less, and are less
likely to own homes or have access to quality health care and jobs than White people," the county said in a statement.
"These disparities have lifelong impacts, including higher disease rates, and, as we're seeing now, higher rates of
COVID-19." The resolution calls for the county to advocate for policies that, "improves outcomes for Black, Indigenous
and communities of color."
The Editor says...
This is race-based political pandering at its worst. If some people in Minnesota "have poorer educational outcomes, earn less,
and are less likely to own homes or have access to quality health care and jobs than White people," it's probably because of a lifetime
series of bad decisions. "[P]oorer educational outcomes" in particular are most likely their own fault. If they don't own
homes, it's probably because public housing is much cheaper. Or maybe it's because they spent all their money on lottery tickets,
marijuana, tattoos, and beer. Nobody in America is denied "access" to a job.
The
Most Noble Experiment in Human History is on a Ventilator. [Scroll down] There was an implicit
understanding that while the United States provided no guaranteed outcomes, it did offer unprecedented opportunities for
success. Were there equal opportunities for the slaves (and their immediate descendants) brought to the United States
against their will? No. Did traders from Britain, Portugal, and France roam the African Continent capturing
slaves for export to buyers around the world? No, they didn't have to. Dominant African tribes were more than
happy to do the dirty work and sell lesser advantaged peoples into slavery. It was ever thus. Perhaps the
greatest folly of the past month (and that's not an easy one to pick, given the daily deluge of chicaneries being foisted on
the American populace) is the notion that slavery was a uniquely American peculiarity, and blacks in America are owed
reparations because of the way they have been treated from the 1600s until today. Perhaps Al Sharpton sums up the
thought process from his speech at a George Floyd memorial service. The premise here is that no African Americans in
the United States have been successful because the white man has held them back.
Are We a Unified Culture or a Collection of Grievances?
From aspiring to become less tribal and more unified as citizens of a common political culture, we have now devolved into a
greater and even more palpable tribalism. Thus the horrific image of a cop killing George Floyd becomes a conflict not
between a bad cop and a social order based on common decency, but rather a conflict between races. This searing
political symbol has served a variety of agendas, each trying to hijack it for its own political purposes. Nancy Pelosi
and her Democrat colleagues take a knee and drape themselves in kente cloth — a symbol of rich African slave
traders — to fashion their own agenda onto the killing of George Floyd. If pandering required a definition,
this is it. The white anarchists whose Paris Commune fantasy is being played out in the streets of Seattle are doing so
in the name of George Floyd, but what anarchism has to do with racial justice is questionable. Antifa has its own
agenda. George Floyd is a useful symbol.
Leftist
Minstrel Show: Self-abasing protestors mostly white, and blacks are starting to laugh. Anti-racism
protests, which form the backdrop of the violence, desecration and looting going on around the U.S., are starting to look
just a little bit strange to some black people. Made up almost solely of whites, they feature kneeling, self-abasement,
calls for absolution, and vows of reparation. There have been celebrities declaring they 'take responsibility,'
Congress members bowing in Kente cloth stoles, ritual kneelings in the street, uplifted fists of ecstasy, and in one
particularly ridiculous instance, thick, pasty white protestors dancing around a fallen Columbus statue as Indian drums beat,
oblivous to the logic of their declaration, in that they best go back to Europe to atone. They've actually become
religious rituals for white people with no religion and in need of one, what with global warming not coming through on its
promises of Armaggedon.
Oregon
County Reluctantly Rescinds Race-Baiting Mask Rule. The Public Health Office of Lincoln County, Oregon, fearing an uptick
in COVID-19 cases as lockdowns eased, decided to introduce a mandatory mask rule for all indoor public settings. One small detail
stood out: citing potential "heightened concerns about racial profiling and harassment due to wearing face coverings in public,"
the directive declared that the mandatory rule would in fact be completely optional for "people of color." National attention and
national mockery ensued. [...] Just to be clear, there was no way to justify this selective exemption on scientific grounds. Social
distancing and masks barely work as halfway measures; only a small proportion of a population needs to "cheat" for effectiveness to
plummet. The exemption was therefore nothing more and nothing less than putting politics of the worst kind ahead of common sense
and basic scientific coherence.
Two black candidates are running against each other. How is "black voter suppression" an issue?
New
York Democrat refuses to concede House primary election, alleges 'black voter suppression'. A New York state
lawmaker who sought to replace a retiring member of Congress refused to concede defeat Thursday [6/25/2020] following Tuesday's
Democratic primary, claiming the election was plagued by "intentional black voter suppression." State Assemblyman Michael
Blake, an African-American candidate, finished in second place in the 15th Congressional District contest's in-person ballot count,
the New York Daily News reported. The top finisher was New York City Councilman Ritchie Torres, who is also African-American.
The
Left's Idea of Bringing Us Together. Earlier this month, former Defense Secretary James Mattis whined:
"Donald Trump is the first president in my lifetime who does not try to unite the American people. Instead, he tries to
divide us." Apparently, Mattis wasn't alive when Barack Obama was president. His quest for unity started as a
candidate, when he described Middle Americans as bitterly clinging to religion, guns and anti-immigrant
sentiments — in other words, as fanatics, gun nuts and xenophobes. In 2016, Hillary Clinton was the left's
unity candidate — heaping calumny on the heads of "deplorables" (bitter-clingers 2.0). Now comes Joe Biden,
who said at an April fundraiser that Trump voters, "really support the notion that, you know, all Mexicans are rapists and
all Muslims are bad." So, if you're tired of illegals streaming across the border, Dems say you believe Mexicans are all
rapists and if you're critical of the way Muslim countries treat Christians, to Dems, it's the same as saying, "all Muslims
are bad." Naturally, no one in the establishment media denounced this slander.
Alexandria
Ocasio-Cortez, Who Once Claimed Jewish Ancestry, Now Says She's 'Black'. "What do you think the Latinx
community should do to stop racism among them and among other races?" AOC was asked. Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez, who
once claimed to be descended from Sephardic Jews, replied: "A lot of times I'll hear people say, 'OK, this is about
Black Lives Matter, what about Latinos?' and I always say, Latinos are black!"
De
Blasio plans to install Black Lives Matter mural in front of Trump Tower. Mayor Bill de Blasio is planning to
install a massive Black Lives Matter mural right outside Trump Tower in Manhattan, The [New York] Post has learned.
Plans for the mural — which will be painted in yellow block letters along Fifth Avenue between 56th and 57th
streets — come as the city grapples with troubling surges in gun violence and illegal firework activity.
"Obviously he is doing it to antagonize the president," a source said. "This is what he is concerned about while the
city burns. What an amateur politician." The source said the mayor's office reached out to the Department of
Transportation about the feasibility of the mural — but it was mentioned that de Blasio wanted it done.
London
to Erect Statues Celebrating Mass Migration. Two large sculptures celebrating mass migration will be unveiled
in London next year, the Guardian has revealed. It was announced Monday [6/22/2020], on the UK's second ever 'Windrush
Day', that works by artists Thomas J Price and Veronica Ryan will be erected in London's Hackney borough in 2021.
Windrush Day commemorates the beginning of the modern mass migration era in Britain in 1948, and was instituted in 2018 after
some members of that original generation of post-war migrant arrivals were detained and deported because of government error,
causing a significant scandal.
"Tear
Them Down": Race Activist Shaun King Calls for Removal of All Statues, Murals and Stained Glass Windows of "White Jesus and
his European Mother". Race activist Shaun King on Monday [6/22/2020] called for the taking down of all statues,
murals and stained glass windows of "white Jesus and his European mother". King issued his statement on Twitter to his 1.1
million followers.
Shaun
King says Jesus images 'a form of white supremacy' that must go: 'They should all come down'. Shaun King said Monday [6/22/2020]
it's time for anything resembling "white Jesus" to be expunged from the public square. The staunch Black Lives Matter activist made the
comments as online activists continued to debate which statues and monuments were culturally unacceptable in 2020. The May 25
death of George Floyd, a 46-year-old black man, under the weight of Minneapolis police served as the impetus for activists to tear down
statues of historical figures like Christopher Columbus and George Washington.

Pelosi Secretes Her
Party's Pro-Slavery Past. Late Thursday [6/18/2020], Nancy Pelosi had four of her predecessors removed from a
Portrait Collection that adorns the Speaker's Lobby in Congress. These Democratic Speakers were ostensibly banished
from the halls of Congress pursuant to their Confederate ties. Madam Speaker insisted in a news conference that she was
unaware of the portraits or their unsavory provenance until recently, despite their conspicuous location just outside the
House chamber where she has worked for the last 33 years. Having finally learned of the offensive paintings, Pelosi
ordered them taken down.
There's
a reason racial tension is rising in America - it's by design. If you've been paying attention recently, and
you probably have, you've likely sensed that something profound is happening to this country right now, something that could
transform what America is. You can feel it happening. [...] Forty years ago, this was a middle-class country and as a
result, America had strongly egalitarian values. Pretty much everyone used commercial airports and ate at
McDonald's. Do you remember that? People talked without irony about their rights as citizens and taxpayers.
You couldn't pay extra to jump to the head of the line at Disney World. The idea that someone like Jeffrey Epstein
could beat a sex charge because he was rich would have shocked us then. We would have demanded an investigation into
just how Jeffrey Epstein died. Why? Because Americans hated corruption. They saw corruption as an offense
against equality. That was 40 years ago. Things were moving in the opposite direction ever since. We now
accept, uncritically, the claim that some people deserve better treatment based on how they were born, and some deserve worse.
Dick Durbin Has a White Fragility
Problem. Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin (D., Ill.) had some choice words to describe Sen. Tim Scott's
(R., S.C.) police reform bill. "What we say on the Democratic side is we can not waste this historic moment, this
singular opportunity," Durbin said on the Senate floor while discussing the legislation proposed by Scott, who is
black. "Let's not do something that is a token, half-hearted approach." As Durbin is almost certainly aware, "token"
is a problematic, racially charged term used to denigrate the accomplishments of people of color. Scott responded by
asking whether Democratic leaders were still wearing the kente cloths they donned for an embarrassing photo op earlier this month.
Lying
Democrat in Congress says U.S. created slavery. Senator Tim Kaine is in desperate need of a history lesson,

The
Left's Premature Revolution. In their mad dash to exploit the tragic death of George Floyd, the left and their
militant cohorts ignored the advice of their forefathers, Marx and Lenin, who admonished that revolutions take time and
patience. Perhaps if they had waited until Donald Trump was no longer in office, there was no recent pandemic lockdown
and the occupant of the White House was virtually any Democrat or the typical Republican composite of John McCain, Mitt
Romney and Lisa Murkowski, the radical left would have been far more successful in wringing out dramatic concessions that
would move the country markedly left. But, thanks to their lack of patience, the American people now know who these
people are and what they stand for which is prompting a brewing albeit silent backlash.
If
'The Left Controls Every Major Institution,' Then.... Whose fault? Obama's "bitter clingers?" Hillary
Clinton's "deplorables?" A cabal of NRA members holed up in a secret gun range? [...] Maybe, just maybe, the answer is right
in front of our faces: That the "major institutions" in America, the "system" if you like, have not in fact been
helping to end racism in America. Instead they have been systematically making it worse. Mainstream media have
been giving airtime for decades to straight-up racists like Revs. Jackson and Sharpton. Academia has been
counting the number of racists on the head of a pin with its intellectual fog of grievance studies and postmodern
rubbish. Administrative government has been administering the straight-up racism of quotas, Affirmative Action, goals
and timetables, diversity and inclusion. Hollywood insists on casting blacks as scientists and women as
superheroes. Big Tech has been hiring South Asians by the upper-caste Brahmin load, when it could have been hiring
blacks from the 'hood.
The High Price of Forgetting.
America should never forget their names: Garnette Ramantar, Kareem Brunner, Olga Garcia, Angeline Marrero, Cynthia
Martinez, Luz Ramos, and Mayra Rentas. These seven innocent people were murdered on Dec. 8, 1995, when a deranged
supporter of Al Sharpton burst into Freddie's Fashion Mart, shot four people and set fire to the Jewish-owned business on
Harlem's 125th Street. Everyone who knows the story of how Sharpton's shakedown protests against "white interlopers"
incited the Freddie's Fashion Mart massacre must consider Sharpton permanently tainted as a murderous hatemonger.
Sharpton has never repented for inciting murder and, because he has dishonestly denied responsibility, he ought to be
regarded as entirely untrustworthy — falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus. No honest person would
publicly associate with this race-baiting demagogue, much less provide Sharpton a platform to promote his wicked worldview,
and yet there he was on every TV network this week, preaching the eulogy for George Floyd.
Race Isn't
Going Away. Whatever people may claim, race isn't going away. It's too big a cash cow, too big a
platform, too big a power source to be ignored, too large a cudgel to be put down. And that puts it right in line with
most of activism. The cause, whatever it is, has no end game beyond its own self-perpetuation. If the problem was
solved, the gravy train would stop.
Al
Sharpton Demands NFL 'Give Colin Kaepernick a Job Back'. MSNBC host Al Sharpton rejected the NFL's apology for
"not listening to its players" and demanded that the league "give Colin Kaepernick a job back." Speaking at the funeral
of George Floyd in Houston, Texas, Sharpton brought the NFL into his remarks saying NFL chief Roger Goodell's recent address
to the players' concerns about racial injustice was an "empty apology."
The
Floyd Finale — The Biden/Clyburn Push To Capitalize on Last Floyd Funeral. If you've been following
the week-long, highly political, three state grievance tour consisting of five funerals and viewings timed and located to
maximize a 2020 political narrative; today [6/9/2020] is the culmination of the effort. [...] The media previously claimed
funeral number four for George Floyd in Houston, Texas, would be a small private gathering of family and close friends and
that's why Joe Biden would not be present to give his remarks in person. As the Biden/Clyburn campaign explained to
Reuters: "He is not expected to attend the service to avoid any disruption to mourners that could be caused by his
Secret Service protective detail." That Biden/Clyburn claim was always transparently silly. As you can see today from
the funeral dozens of congresspersons, senators, state and national officials were included in a large made-for-television,
live-broadcast, event that was not the least bit "private", "small" or reserved for close family and friends. Instead
it was what we expected it would be; a Joe Biden political rally exploiting the death of George Floyd.
Sharpton
attacks Roger Goodell, Trump while spewing angry, divisive eulogy. If you've been hiding under a rock these
past two weeks and haven't discerned for yourself that George Floyd's death has been politicized by the left, to no less
degree than the Russian collusion hoax, the partisan impeachment ruse and the COVID-19 pandemic, allow Al Sharpton to enter
the picture. The race-baiting MSNBC host, who still claims the title of a Reverend, delivered the eulogy Tuesday at
Floyd's funeral, using the platform to drive racial discord, attack President Donald Trump and advocate on behalf of radical
left ex-NFL player Colin Kaepernick while calling out league commissioner Roger Goodell.
Systemic Racism
and Bigotry Are the Lifeblood of the Left. [Scroll down] The only racism in America that is

How low will they grovel to get power? They will kneel on the floor. They actually will kneel on the floor,
groveling for power. Of course, as Nancy Pelosi just found, she kneeled so long that she could not even get back
up. You think she was kneeling to Jesus? Nancy Pelosi is America's leading Catholic proponent of
abortion — though Joe Biden, Andrew Cuomo, and a boatload of other Democrat Catholics would take great offense at
Nancy Pelosi getting all the credit for funding the killing of fetuses, especially in the Black community. That Pelosi
is kneeling to Jesus? And who, pray tell, was Schumer kneeling to? He claims to be Jewish, so he is
not kneeling to Jesus. But wait! It is a core tenet of Judaism that kneeling is forbidden except on Yom Kippur
during the recitation of the Kohen service that occurred at the Holy Temple in Jerusalem during Talmudic times.
Otherwise, it is so fundamentally against Judaism to kneel that every Jewish child learns the story associated with Talmud
Tractate Gittin 57b of "The Woman and Her Seven Sons."
The Window Closed.
When you know the playbook of Benjamin Crump; and you understand the playbook of how the AME grievance network intersects
with the playbook of Crump; it is easy to predict activity. George Floyd's life wasn't what mattered, the political
opportunity was. This election year opportunity brought together Ben Crump, James Clyburn, Joe Biden and the DNC.
The death of George Floyd was the vehicle, the opportunity, that created the background for the network to align for mutual
interests; money, power and politics. [...] Keeping in mind that everything in Crump world is always sketchy and manufactured,
it is not surprising to see articles describing Joe Biden meeting with the Floyd family by using Roger Floyd.
Infamous
hate crime hoaxer to host race rally in DC. Given the current unrest surrounding the death of George Floyd,
it's not surprising to learn that yet another rally is being planned in D.C. But this one is being announced well in advance,
scheduled to take place on August 28th, the anniversary of the Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King's "I have a dream" speech
given 57 years ago. Unfortunately for those interested in participating, the host of this rally is perpetual opportunist
Al Sharpton. Any time there is any sort of unrest involving issues of race, you can always expect Al Sharpton to show up
and find a way to continue promoting himself, and the current waves of demonstrations are clearly no exception.
The
Delusional Premises of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Welcome to yet another example of the nexus between climate
change alarmism and a socialist redistribution agenda fueled by racial resentment. That may be old news to those of us
paying attention, but thanks to birdbrained stooges like U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) the blatant
race-baiting rhetoric is being turned up a notch. And why not? If you're a socialist, or a globalist, there is
only upside to tagging nations of European heritage with guilt for the problems facing their "communities of color," or the
problems in the rest of the non-European world. It would be far too painful to consider the alternative explanation,
which is that socialism, in all of its antecedents and derivatives, is the primary cause of the societal afflictions that
plague "people of color" both in America and abroad.
Will
Joe Biden Let Al Sharpton Pick His Running Mate? [Al] Sharpton is as toxic a figure as exists in American
public life. Space does not permit here a full summary of Sharpton's sins, which include inciting murder, riot, and
arson, leading a hoax rape accusation against innocent men, anti-Semitism, and tax evasion; [...] (Maybe the most bizarre of
all was Sharpton nodding along with a caller to his radio show who accused Sarah Palin of killing Michael Jackson).
There are plenty of terrible people in American politics, but Sharpton has a body count to go with an unusually broad range
of misconduct. There's a long, shabby list of Democrats who have enabled and embraced Sharpton, including Elizabeth
Warren, Pete Buttigieg, Kamala Harris, and Biden's old boss, Barack Obama. Donald Trump, too, has helped legitimize
Sharpton. All of them should be ashamed of themselves, and there is no excuse for Biden letting Sharpton wield this
kind of influence over the most important decision of his presidential campaign.
How
The Southern Poverty Law Center Started Inventing 'Hate Groups'. On March 14, 2019 the Southern Poverty Law
Center publicly fired its founder and long-time leader Morris Dees on accusations of racial and sexual discrimination, and
announced it would bring in outside assistance to investigate the climate of the organization Dees had built and ruled over
for almost half a century. Since its founding, the SPLC had been treated — at least in the mainstream
media — as an unquestioned arbiter of what qualifies as racism and hatred. Being added to the SPLC's "Hate
List" was the death-knell for any number of organizations that ran afoul of Dees.
More
than 200 black women urge Biden to pick black woman as running mate. More than 200 black women on Friday
[4/24/2020] signed an open letter to presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden urging him to pick a black woman
as his running mate. Biden has said he will choose a woman to be his vice presidential nominee, and has named several
black women in conversations about who he may pick to be on the ticket.
Van
Jones says states reopening businesses amid coronavirus is 'a death sentence for communities of color'. CNN
political commentator Van Jones said Tuesday [4/21/2020] that the decision by some states to ease stay-at-home restrictions
and open businesses is effectively "a death sentence for communities of color," which have been disproportionately affected
by the novel coronavirus. His comments follow Republican Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp's announcement that some
businesses in the state would be able to reopen as early as Friday, as other state leaders signaled similar plans.
POLL: White Liberals
Most Bothered by Joe Biden's Whiteness. The only Democratic voters significantly bothered by Joe Biden's race
and gender are white liberals with graduate degrees, according to a Pew survey published this week. According to the
poll, a majority of Democratic voters are not concerned that their party's presumptive nominee for president is an elderly
white man. Nearly 60 percent of respondents said Biden's age and race do not bother them. Among black voters, 72
percent said they weren't bothered by Biden's race and gender, while 70 percent of Hispanic voters said the same.
Concern over Biden's whiteness was considerably higher among white Democrats, nearly half of whom said they were bothered
that their party's nominee was not a minority.
Because everything is about race...
Michigan
Governor Whitmer sets up coronavirus racial disparity task force. Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer ordered
on Monday the creation of a task force to investigate why the novel coronavirus has disproportionately affected the state's
African-American community. "The COVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately impacted communities of color throughout our
state," Whitmer, a Democrat, said in her executive order. "For example, while African Americans represent 13.6 percent
of our state's population, they represent a staggering 40 percent of the deaths from COVID-19." Whitmer's task force will
investigate and study strategies to address the disparity as well as the historical and systematic inequalities pertaining to
race that have amplified the death rate in the state's black community.
Bet
Your Life — Vote for Democrats. New York City and California's loony politicos are hooked on
identity politics and see racism everywhere, ignoring objective science. The consequences of ignoring reality:
overwhelmed medical facilities, lack of proper medical equipment, and soaring death rates. [...] In brief, Mayor de Blasio's
City Health Commissioner, Oxiris Barbot, is a radical who previously served as Health Commissioner of Baltimore where she
"had given the city's race rioters 'space to destroy.'" Space which continues after her move to New York to result in a
soaring murder rate. She boasted of seeing health policy through a "racial equity lens," a lens so fogged that she
concentrated on discouraging those arriving from Wuhan from going into self-quarantine and encouraging New Yorkers to attend
the Lunar New Year celebrations in the city.
Elizabeth
Warren Demands 'Critical' Racial Data of those with Coronavirus. Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) is demanding
the racial data of those contracting the novel coronavirus, contending that it is "critical to ensuring an equitable and just
response to this crisis across the board." While the virus appears to be no respecter of persons, infecting more than one
million people globally, Warren believes it is "critical" to have racial data to properly respond to the pandemic.
AOC
wants coronavirus reparations for minorities: 'Inequality is a comorbidity'. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez declared
Friday [4/3/2020] that inequality is a preexisting health condition and that minority and low-income communities should receive
coronavirus relief in the form of reparations. "COVID deaths are disproportionately spiking in Black + Brown communities," the
New York democratic socialist tweeted to her 6.6 million followers. "Why? Because the chronic toll of redlining,
environmental racism, wealth gap, etc. ARE underlying health conditions. "Inequality is a comorbidity," she wrote.
"COVID relief should be drafted with a lens of reparations."
10
Ways the Left Has Politicized the Coronavirus Pandemic. For weeks, members of the media were referring to the
virus as the Wuhan or Chinese coronavirus, without any such outrage from the Democrats. Similarly, Rep. Alexandria
Ocasio-Cortez found herself eating crow after she called on the public to eat at home for public safety mere days after
accusing the public of being racist for not eating at Chinese restaurants. But it doesn't stop with allegations of
racism. The left has made diversity (or lack thereof) a theme of their coronavirus attacks, taking their Trump
Derangement Syndrome to a new level of absurdity. CNN beclowned itself by complaining that Trump's coronavirus
taskforce lacked diversity compared to Obama's 2014 Ebola virus task force, lamenting the team was made up of a bunch of old
white men. Famed horror author Stephen King similarly made a fool of himself after complaining about the lack of
diversity on the coronavirus task force, though he was promptly called out on Twitter, with people showing photos of the
team, which included both minorities and women.
Race-hustler
Joe Biden. It is a testament to how fringe and unacceptable racism has become in America today — the
worst thing you can accuse a politician of is racism. Lying is perfectly acceptable. Flip-flopping is the
norm. Failure to keep promises is a given. You will even be forgiven for molesting the intern in the Oval
Office. But racism? It is the Scarlet Letter.
For
Buttigieg, a Search for Black Support That Never Arrived. In October, Pete Buttigieg said he would do better
with South Carolina's black voters once they got to know him better. When he came back in December, he was still
working on introducing himself to the black electorate. And in late January he admitted he was scared that at his
rallies in South Carolina, where 60 percent of the Democratic electorate is black, most attendees were white.
Those fears were borne out on Saturday, when Mr. Buttigieg was trounced in South Carolina's primary and earned just
two percent of the vote from African-Americans, according to early exit polling.
Billionaire
Steyer shakes up primary with slavery reparations plan. For centuries, South Carolina's Charleston was the
largest port of entry for the transatlantic slave trade. Now, a billionaire activist named Tom Steyer is shaking up the
state's Democratic primary by advocating slavery reparations for African Americans. A California financier turned
philanthropist and environmental campaigner, Steyer has poured tens of millions of dollars into the state ahead of Saturday's
vote — with a single-minded focus on the black voters who make up 60 percent of its Democratic electorate.
The Editor says...
This was an act of political desperation, apparently, because he dropped out of the race the next day.
The
Democrat debate looked like a mixed martial arts cage fight. Most Americans don't care one bit about skin
color; they care about character. It is the leftists who endlessly strive to make race, class and gender the only
things that matter about every individual and that is the purest definition of racism and bigotry there is. There are
no individuals, only members of a victim group. The Left does not care about black people or poor people, they use them
to gain power. In the meantime, the rest of us live our lives day to day. We interact with our friends and families
who are of numerous and varying skin colors, gay, straight, liberal or conservative, for the most part without rancor.
It is the left that promotes division among us for all the usual reasons — it serves their quest for power.
Joe
Biden is saying he was arrested trying to reach Nelson Mandela. He's never said that before. In at least
three campaign appearances over the past two weeks, Joe Biden has told a similar story as he tries to revive his campaign in
states with more diverse voters. On a trip to South Africa years ago, he has said, he was arrested as he sought to
visit Nelson Mandela in prison.

Biden claims he was arrested in South Africa in 1989 - but nobody else can seem to remember. Democratic
presidential candidate Joe Biden is facing scrutiny over a dubious tale from the campaign trail, claiming that he was
arrested in South Africa while trying to visit Nelson Mandela in prison. Biden, 77, first told the story at a campaign
event in Columbia, South Carolina on February 11, as he tried to shake off defeat in New Hampshire, and has repeated it
twice more during outreach to black voters.
The Editor says...
There is nothing to be gained by making such a claim, anyway. Approximately nobody will vote for Biden just because he went to
South Africa in 1989; whereas, a great number of voters will be less inclined to vote for Biden if the story is a lie.
Oh
Xusana! Racist property redistribution hits Vermont. Last year, Xusana Davis was appointed by Vermont
governor Phil Scott as the state's "first Racial Equity Executive Director." Davis, formerly of New York City's Department
of Mental Health and Hygiene, applied for the job "on a whim," and was installed to "identify and address systemic racism in
Vermont." But the law labeling Vermont as systemically racist was also a whim, backed by no evidence aside from bald
assertions that racial disparities in prison, land ownership, or school disciplinary actions reflect a disparity in
treatment of people of color. The dangers of this false assumption are demonstrated in Xusana's latest gambit:
to "codify community engagement" by "considering racial and environmental justice in land use." Davis has been commissioned
by recent Vermont law to "develop a strategy to address racial disparities within the State systems of education, labor and
employment, access to housing and health care, and economic development."
Pete
Buttigieg touts African American endorsements that do not exist. Former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete
Buttigieg has an endorsement problem. More specifically, the 2020 Democratic primary candidate keeps padding the list
of black people who supposedly support his candidacy to include anyone who so much as comes within striking distance of his
campaign. On Saturday, a South Carolina newspaper published an opinion article by Buttigieg wherein he claimed his
"campaign has proudly partnered with" black-owned businesses in the Palmetto State, including Diane's Kitchen in the town of
Chester and Atlantis Restaurant in Moncks Corner. As it turns out, though, the proprietors of those establishments have
no idea what the former mayor is talking about.
Democrat
Pete Buttigieg overstated pledges of support from black leaders, public figures. When Democratic presidential
candidate Pete Buttigieg touted support from African American comedian and actor Keegan-Michael Key last week, his campaign
was forced just hours later to clarify that the actor had not officially endorsed the former South Bend mayor, telling reporters
he only sought to "encourage early voting and voter registration." Key appeared with Buttigieg on Saturday to drum up
voter support at his Henderson, Nevada field office. The gaffe did not attract much attention. However, it was not the
first time the Buttigieg campaign overstated having a tie with a prominent African American figure, or black business.
Buttigieg
reportedly touted 'partnerships' with black-owned South Carolina businesses they denied having. A new report
alleges that former South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg touted "partnerships" with black-owned businesses in South
Carolina that the business owners denied making. Last week, Buttigieg penned an op-ed in a South Carolina newspaper
"The State" promoting his "Frederick Douglass Plan," which he describes is "a comprehensive investment in the empowerment of
Black America" that was developed with the help of black activists and business leaders.
Racial
preferences in Virginia energy law are unconstitutional. Virginia's new Democratic legislature is passing an
energy law that contains racial preferences. But to try to get around constitutional restrictions on racial
discrimination, it is primarily targeting such preferences to "predominantly-minority areas," rather than to minority
individuals. This doesn't immunize this legislation against a constitutional challenge, but it does complicate things
for challengers. Both houses of the Virginia legislature have passed passed [sic] the "Virginia Clean Economy Act"
(VCEA). It will increase residents' utility bills a lot in the years to come. It also provides jobs and job
training reserved for areas that are predominantly minority or predominantly lower income (HB 1526 and SB 851).
The VCEA requires a utility, in constructing an offshore wind generation facility, to "give priority to the hiring of local workers,
including workers" from "a community in which a majority of the population are people of color." Such facilities are likely
to cost billions to construct, paid for by higher utility bills.
Al
Sharpton's 2004 presidential campaign still owes more than $900K. Fifteen year's later, the check is still in
the mail. The Rev. Al Sharpton's failed 2004 presidential campaign still owes more than $900,000. The unpaid debt
of his committee, "Sharpton 2004," has remained unchanged for a decade, according to its most recent FEC filing in March
2019. The campaign has not filed any of its required disclosure forms since then, earning multiple letters of rebuke
from the feds. "If committees are unable to pay debts, they can file a debt-settlement plan with the FEC ... committees
could not just decide not to pay," a spokesman from the Federal Election Commission told The [New York] Post. The holy
man's campaign is in the hole, despite him personally earning more money than ever.
'Do
I look white to you?' Tlaib accuses census director of 'erasing' people of Middle Eastern descent.
Rep. Rashida Tlaib accused Census Bureau Director Steven Dillingham of "erasing" people of Middle Eastern descent during
a House of Representatives Oversight and Reform Committee meeting. The congresswoman from Michigan was upset that the
2020 census does not include "Middle Eastern/North African" as an option in the ethnicity category despite an Obama-era study
that recommended otherwise. "Do I look white to you?" Tlaib asked Dillingham. Dillingham began to explain that
there is a write-in option on the census to compensate for people who don't feel a category accurately depicts their
background. Tlaib cut him off and said that "circling white" on the census changed her "lived experience as a person of
color" in the United States.
House
Dems push legislation requiring banks to receive critical 'diversity and inclusion' rating. House Democrats are
proposing that all banks and credit unions receive a new "diversity and inclusion" rating in an unprecedented step that would
fundamentally alter federal regulators' critical "CAMELS" rating system that currently employs a series of metrics that
solely assess the financial health of banking institutions. The "Promoting Diversity and Inclusion in Banking Act of
2019" is draft legislation supported by Democrats on the House Subcommittee on Diversity and Inclusion, which was created by
House Financial Services Committee chairwoman Maxine Waters Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif. Waters has long pushed
for government-led diversity efforts, even as Republicans have challenged her knowledge of fundamental economic issues.
Watch:
Sheila Jackson Lee Rails Against Trump Budget as Racist, Claims It Invokes Slavery. Democrats seem to term
everything racist, especially when it has anything to do with Republicans or President Donald Trump, whether it makes sense
or not. Some of the things they've termed racist over the years are just downright silly. Rep. Sheila
Jackson Lee (D-TX) demonstrated exactly that during a Congressional hearing on the proposed Trump budget for next year.
Rep.
Sheila Jackson Lee Labels Trump's Budget Plan as Racist. Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) accused President
Trump's proposed budget of being racist while invoking the treatment and stereotyping of slaves on Wednesday [2/12/2020].
Russ Vought, the acting director for the White House's Office of Management and Budget, was testifying to the House Budget
Committee on Trump's proposed budget for fiscal year 2021 when Jackson Lee used her time to rip into the proposals because of
work requirements. Jackson Lee compared stereotypes of slaves being lazy and how "laws were put in place that if you
were picking cotton, you couldn't get assistance."
Heightening
the Contradictions. The American racial problem was essentially solved in the mid-60s. But the Left,
sensing a dramatic opportunity, leapt in, raising marginal racial crackpots such as Huey Newton, Stokely Carmichael, and H. Rap
Brown to the status of racial spokesmen, deliberately antagonizing working-class whites through bussing and legal block-busting, and
constructing elaborate theoretical (Black Liberation Theory), and legal (affirmative action) systems designed to institutionalize
racial hostility.
Sanders:
The United States Is a 'Racist Society'. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.) on Friday said the United States
has a "racist society from top to bottom" on everything from health care to criminal justice to education. "We have a
racist society from top to bottom impacting health care, housing, criminal justice, education, you name it. And clearly
this is an issue that must be dealt with," Sanders said during the debate hosted by ABC News. "But in terms of criminal
justice, what we have got to do is understand the system is broken — is racist. We invest in our young
people in jobs and education, not more jails and more incarceration." Sanders continued by calling for an end to the
war on drugs, saying it has unfairly impacted African Americans, Latinos, and Native Americans.
Creepy Pete.
[Scroll down] The stagecraft was weird. If the demographic polling we've all read is correct, then the line of
seven or eight African-American supporters behind him during his Iowa victory speech represents, by my math, 180 percent of
his African-American support nationwide. In fact, those in that line seemed to constitute most of the African Americans
in the room, which made you wonder how it was they were placed so directly in the sight lines of the television
cameras. I bet that was a very delicate mission for the person tasked with it. The surreal and eerie quality of
the speech was enhanced by the fact that he declared himself the winner in prose that was so fundamentally empty.
The Editor says...
Yes, minorities are often rounded up and placed directly behind a candidate when he or she is making a televised speech, to give
the not-so-subtle impression that it's safe for minorities to vote for the candidate. This practice has been going on for many years.
Sanders Interrupts
Candidates Fighting Over Who Has More Of The Black Vote. 2020 presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders
said Friday [2/7/2020] that "we have a racist society from top to bottom." The Vermont senator spoke Friday evening at
ABC's Democratic debate in New Hampshire, where he discussed racism in the United States as former Vice President Joe Biden and
billionaire Tom Steyer argued over who has more support from black voters. "We have a racist society from top to
bottom," Sanders said, adding that this "racist society" is "impacting health care, housing, criminal justice,
education — you name it."
Trashing
America as racist won't help Democrats beat Trump. Tom Steyer, the billionaire who's trying to buy a win
Bloomberg-style in the South Carolina Democratic primary, issued a stark warning at the beginning of the Democratic debate
Friday night in New Hampshire: Trump has the economic numbers that can help him get reelected, and Democrats are going
to need to have a strong message to overwhelm it. About an hour into the debate, they found their message:
America, Bernie Sanders said, is "a racist society from top to bottom." One by one, the candidates echoed the message
that "systemic racism" characterizes America. "We can't legislate away racism," said Andrew Yang, because racism runs
so deep in the American soul. Joe Biden, verbatim (poor Joe): "The fact is that we in fact there is systemic racism."
Elizabeth Warren even declared that "we need race-conscious laws in education, in employment, in entrepreneurship to make
this country a country for everyone."
Warren
blames 'legacy' of U.S. racism for conditions that caused campaign staff to quit. Sen. Elizabeth Warren
says it's time for America to consider its "long legacy" of racism in response to six minority staffers who quit the Nevada
arm of her campaign. The Massachusetts Democrat discussed the issue with MSNBC's Chris Hayes this week as she vies for
further traction in the party's presidential primaries.
Buttigieg
blames Trayvon death on 'white supremacy'. Hoping to fan racial flames in his direction before the South
Carolina primary, Pete Buttigieg tweeted out his support for Trayvon Martin on the occasion of what would have been Martin's
25th birthday, February 5. "Trayvon Martin would have been 25 today," Mayor Pete tweeted. "How many 25th
birthdays have been stolen from us by white supremacy, gun violence, prejudice, and fear?" Buttigieg threw in a Black Lives
Matter hashtag just to make sure black voters knew he was down for the struggle. This tweet would have been unfortunate
six months ago. Today, it is unforgivable.
Fact-checking
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Claim: "Rush Limbaugh is a virulent
racist..." Fact-checker rating: Pants-on-fire. One has to look no farther than the control booth of the
extraordinarily successful Rush Limbaugh radio show to learn that the infamous producer and call screener "Bo Snerdley" is in
reality a black man named James Golden. [...] Rush Limbaugh is neither a racist nor misogynist. He is hated and reviled
by liberals such as Ocasio-Cortez because he is an unapologetic conservative voice so desperately needed at this moment in
American history. Any listener of his show can attest to the fact that Rush has frequently praised Justice Clarence
Thomas on the Supreme Court, and if memory serves correctly, Justice Thomas is black. While Limbaugh is unafraid to
criticize, mock, and parody race-baiting hustlers like Jesse Jackson, Maxine Waters, Louis Farrakhan, or Al Sharpton, he
often speaks of economist Thomas Sowell in almost reverential tones, and professor Walter Williams has also served on
multiple occasions as a guest host on Limbaugh's radio show. I wouldn't even know the name of Dr. Williams if it
hadn't been for Rush Limbaugh.
Saying
No to Black History Month. Here we are again folks. February, another Black History Month.
Progressives expect my fellow blacks and me to happily celebrate our month. I will not. BHM is nothing more than
a political weapon for Democrats/progressives to spread racial hate and further their lie that America is the greatest source
of evil on the planet. Most American blacks do not realize that many original civil rights black freedom fighters who
stood beside Dr. Martin Luther King Jr sold their souls to the dark side after Dr. King died. They joined the
white Democrat/progressive movement, metaphorically receiving 30 pieces of silver. The agenda of the dark side is
anti-Christian and anti-American. Black civil rights activists like Jesse Jackson abandoned Dr. King's divinely
inspired mission for blacks to be judged by the content of their character rather than the color of their skin.
Instead, the post-MLK black civil rights movement became all about skin-color, exploiting it in every way.
Why
the Left Really Wants to Kill America. Over the last half-century, the Democratic Party has taken the concept
of Marxist/Leninist dialectical struggle to new heights through its use of identity politics. The term refers
to politically subdividing the electorate into multiple factions (voting blocks), whose members are told they are singled out
for persecution by a bigoted and unjust society. To wit: People of color are persecuted by racists & white
supremacists, women by sexists & misogynists, refugees & illegal immigrants by nativists & xenophobes, Muslims by Islamophobes,
gays & lesbians by homophobes & religious bigots, the 99% by the 1%, and so on. The goal of identity politics is to
turn a majority of the American electorate against their country.
Huh?
Joe Biden Says He was 'Raised in The Black Church'. Joe Biden has told a lot of stories about his connection to
black voters. Back in 2017, he told a story about his younger days at a community pool with minority kids rubbing his
hairy legs and jumping on his lap, which was all sorts of weird and creepy. He told another good one on Sunday [1/26/2020]
at an NAACP event where he claimed his "political identity" was molded by minorities back in his home state. "I have a lot
of black support because that's where I come from. I was raised in the black church, politically, not a joke," Joe Biden
said at the event in Des Moines, Iowa.
Biden
claims he marched to protest segregation. Where's the proof? Biden, who prides himself on his relationship with black
voters, clearly benefits from his eight years of service to the popular Barack Obama. But do most blacks know that for decades Biden
has bragged about "marching" and "protesting" to fight to "desegregate movie theaters and things like that" — and that there is
zero evidence of any of this?
The Anti-White Party.
An outtake in an article in the November 14 New York Times about the Iowa caucuses caused me to do a double
take: "Democrats question the status of a state that's 90% white." Imagine that the Times had instead
said, "Republicans question the status of a state that's heavily black," or "GOP questions the status of a state that's
largely Hispanic." The crises of outrage would reach to the heavens. Every Establishment organ would demand the
Republicans [...] grovel in the dust, and kiss the feet of so-called black and Hispanic "leaders", most of whom are con
artists. But when the Democrats dismiss a state because it's largely white? Not a murmur of protest arose from
any quarter.
Rashida
Tlaib Persists as the Biggest Embarrassment in Congress. Take, as the latest example, Tlaib's ill-advised hot
take on the New Jersey shooting that left six people (1 good guy, 3 innocent people, and the 2 murderers) dead. Having
caught wind of a senseless act of violence that had occurred in Jersey City, Tlaib took to her personal Twitter account to
play politics. She tweeted, "This is heartbreaking. White supremacy kills." The killers were both
black. Not only that, but they had both demonstrated an interest in the black supremacy movement modeled by the Black Hebrew
Israelites. Talk about swinging, missing, and slipping into the bushes. Within about 20 minutes, the ratio on her
tweet had gotten so bad that she deleted it, and then proceeded to continue on as though nothing had happened.
Several
Democratic candidates call on the DNC to make the debates more diverse. Nine Democratic presidential candidates
have called on the Democratic National Committee to relax its debate standards next year, allowing some lower-polling rivals
onto the stage. "While we know this was an unintended consequence of the DNC's actions, many of the candidates excluded
due to these thresholds are the ones who have helped make this year's primary field historically diverse," the candidates
wrote. "Frankly, that unintended result does not live up to the values of our Democratic Party and it does not serve
the best interest of Democratic voters."
Impeach
Trump Because of Slavery? Congressman Al Green has become one of the Democratic Party's top spokesmen.
Which is a good thing, because Green is generally unfiltered, and therefore gives us a glimpse into his party's id. [...] I
don't have a high opinion of Al Green's intelligence, but even he cannot be dumb enough to believe his smears against
President Trump. More to the point, however, is that none of this constitutes proper grounds for impeachment. It
is ridiculous to assert that political differences over, for example, "LGBTQ" issues, constitute high crimes and misdemeanors
under the Constitution. Green's rant is valuable, not because it makes any sense, but because it gives us a window into
the Democrats' real motive for wanting to impeach the president — sheer hatred over political differences.
What's the difference between this and bigotry?
Rep.
Al Green howls about no black faces among the screaming leftist professors. Poor Al Green. All that lefty
scream-mongering at the congressional impeachment hearings and no minorities to show for it. [...] At first glance, it shows
just how obsessed with racial bean-counting your average extremist Democrat in the House is. Maybe there weren't any
minorities who wanted to beclown themselves this stupidly, did you consider that, Al? More likely, Green is pulling the
old Kamala Harris trick, of howling about the importance of minority faces when in fact the idea was to promote herself.
She'd be the solution to fill that affirmative action slot. There's plenty of evidence to suggest that Green is exactly
the same.
Al
Sharpton's charity skirts scrutiny thanks to clout with Dems: critics. The Rev. Al Sharpton's troubled
charity, the National Action Network, has dodged scrutiny paid other nonprofits — despite paying him $1 million
last year — thanks to his political clout, insiders and experts say. "There are certain things that are
universally true in New York: the sun rises in the east, it sets in the west, the subway is late and no one wants
to pick a fight with Al Sharpton," said one top Democratic insider. "Where's the political benefit to doing it?"
Sharpton's teflon provides a sharp contrast to the vigorous investigations state Attorney General Letitia James and Manhattan
District Attorney Cy Vance mounted against President Trump, including his troubled charity.
The
Democrats: Identity Politics above All. The Democrats are totally and absolutely a party focused solely
on identity politics and a party not at all concerned with the greater, general good of the country. Their electoral
strategy is based on identifying specific groups of voters to whom they can assign victimhood status and then promise a
taxpayer-funded government program to alleviate their suffering and correct the wrongs perpetrated against them.
Implicit in the Democrats' argument is the common theme that these so-called transgressions are the result of biased,
intentional wrongdoing by white conservative Republicans, whose prejudices, shortsightedness, and mean-spirited nature are
aimed at those groups, with the intention of maintaining (or regaining, in some instances) political control of the country
by a white heterosexual male cohort of European decent.
Al
Sharpton's 'nonprofit' deserves the same scrutiny as Trump's. State Attorney General Letitia James was quite
proud of herself for winning a $2 million judgment against President Trump for misusing his Trump Foundation charity.
But surely the Rev. Al Sharpton's nonprofit merits similar scrutiny. As The [New York] Post's Melissa Klein and
Georgett Roberts reported last weekend, Sharpton sucked in more than $1 million last year from his National Action Network
charity: salary of $324,000, a $160,000 bonus and $563,000 in "other compensation" — which NAN says it owed
him for a stretch from 2004 to 2017 when it supposedly underpaid him. NAN claims it hired an executive-compensation
firm that found it shorted him $1.25 million over those years. [...] [W]hat a convenient finding for the Rev, who runs
the group that hired the firm.
Al
Sharpton was paid $1 million by his own charity last year. Controversial civil rights activist and MSNBC host
the Rev. Al Sharpton was paid $1,046,948 by his own charity in 2018, tax filings for the National Action Network show,
according to the New York Post. "Sharpton got a $324,000 salary — 32% higher than his 2017 pay —
in addition to a $159,596 bonus and $563,352 in 'other compensation,'" the report stated.
Al Sharpton
gets $1M in pay from his own charity, tax filings show. He's the million-dollar minister. The
Rev. Al Sharpton raked in $1,046,948 from his own charity last year, according to National Action Network's latest tax
filings obtained by The [New York] Post. Sharpton got a $324,000 salary — 32% higher than his 2017
pay — in addition to a $159,596 bonus and $563,352 in "other compensation."
Why
Trump is the Black Voters' Clear Choice in 2020. Tragically, blacks have voted monolithically for Democrats for
60 years with nothing to show for it. Baltimore, Washington D.C., Chicago, and every other city controlled by Democrats
are hellholes of black misery; black-on-black homicides, out-of-wedlock births (fatherless households), high incarceration,
genocidal numbers of abortions, and school dropouts. And yet, Democrats are still deceiving blacks with their tired old
lie that every issue plaguing black Americans is the result of white racism.
Julián
Castro Team Bashes 'The Four White Frontrunners'. The campaign for Democrat presidential hopeful and former
Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julián Castro took aim at "the four white frontrunners" in the race for
president. The comments, which were made by campaign spokesperson Sawyer Hackett, were shared in an official Castro
campaign email sent to reporters on Tuesday [11/5/2019].
Kansas
City votes to remove Martin Luther King's name from historic street. Kansas City voters on Tuesday [11/5/2019]
overwhelmingly approved removing Dr. Martin Luther King's name from one of the city's most historic boulevards, less
than a year after the city council decided to rename The Paseo for the civil rights icon.
Orwellian
Fear Reigns in Vermont. Vermont is one of the most amenable states in the nation to blacks, yet racism and
Nazi-fear have been employed by the Vermont attorney general to undermine police efforts to arrest fentanyl-traffickers and
to create a panel that labels Vermont a "white supremacist culture" and redrafts Vermont textbooks to inculcate "white guilt"
in schoolchildren. Vermont voters embraced Barack Obama more than almost all states, Vermont has the narrowest income
disparity between blacks and whites, and Vermont never permitted slavery — but the Legislature has rewritten the
state constitution.
Lowlife Jew-Hater Sharpton Says Trump Needs
To Fight Antisemitism. If there is a Nobel Prize for mendacity or an Oscar for hypocrisy, this statement by Al
Sharpton would get the award. This scumbag who calls himself a Reverand and a Human Rights leader has spent a lifetime
spreading Antisemitism but never acknowledged or apologized has the nerve to talk about the need for Trump to fight
Jew-hatred. Just the fact that he mentioned Antisemitism gave me the creeps.
Beto's Gospel of Despair.
[Scroll down] Behold the words of flaky far-left presidential wannabe Robert Francis O'Rourke. He goes by "Beto,"
a culturally appropriated nickname that his politically savvy father gave him so he eventually could bamboozle El Paso's
overwhelmingly Hispanic voters into believing that the tube-sock-white Robert is actually Roberto and, thus, Hispanic.
This poser told the New Hampshire Democratic party convention last Saturday that America in 2019 is defined by its original
sin: slavery. "This is a country that has been defined by foundational, systemic, endemic racism since the very
founding of this country," O'Rourke shouted, his arms typically flapping about, like the late Leonard Bernstein conducting
the New York Philharmonic.
Dan
Crenshaw Hits Back After Democrat Lawmaker Labels Him A 'Racist'. Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) fired back on
Tuesday after his Democratic colleague, Rep. Sean Casten (D-IL) attacked the Texas congressman as a "racist" when he was
asked by a constituent to condemn Rep. Ilhan Omar's (D-MN) anti-Semitic remarks. "We've seen this desperate and
immature strategy time after time from the Democrat Party," Crenshaw said. "The strategy is simple: when you disagree
with someone during a policy debate, resort to calling your opponent a racist."
Soledad
O'Brien mocks black Trump supporters, gets brutally mocked. The idea that more and more black Americans are
joining with conservative leaders in support of President Donald Trump leaves the left in a conundrum. Do they subject
these African-Americans to the prescribed Alinsky tactic of ridicule, running the risk of being held to the same impossible
standard they hold the right to in being tagged racist for their criticism? Which is where liberal minorities like
Soledad O'Brien come into play, although she saw the tables quickly turned on her over the weekend in the unpredictable world
of social media.
Ocasio-Cortez
on Trump: 'His Bigotry is Reflective of the White Supremacist Base He Relies On'. Rep. Alexandria Ocaso-Cortez
(D.-N.Y.) sent out at tweet on Saturday [10/5/2019] accusing President Donald Trump of "bigotry" and stating her belief that
this "bigotry" was "reflective" of what she described as the president's "white supremacist base." That tweet by
Ocasio-Cortez was following up on another she had sent out on Saturday in which she said Trump had "targeted antisemitism
towards Chairman [Adam] Schiff."
The
Party of 'Impeach!' In July, Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, wanted Trump impeached for his "racist tweets" that
attacked several Democratic freshman House members known as "the squad." Green tweeted: "(Trump's) racism, anti-Semitism,
homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and Islamophobia can no longer be tolerated or ignored. We must impeach."
One can only marvel at how, with a straight face, Democrats call Trump "racist" while embracing as "kingmaker" the race
card-hustling Rev. Al Sharpton and refusing to denounce anti-Semitic Minister Louis Farrakhan.
A Platform of Urban
Decline. Democratic accusations that America is endemically racist are becoming ever more frequent and
strident. At the last presidential debate, Pete Buttigieg announced that "systemic racism" will "be with us" regardless
of who wins the presidency; Beto O'Rourke claimed that racism in America is "foundational" and that people of color were
under "mortal threat" from the "white supremacist in the White House"; Julián Castro denounced the growing threat of
"white supremacy"; and Cory Booker called for "attacking systemic racism," especially in the "racially biased"
criminal-justice system. At the same time, the allowable explanations for racial disparities have shrunk to one:
that self-same racism.
Rep.
Matt Gaetz Publicly Exposes Al Sharpton's Lifetime of Racism, Bigotry and Prejudice. Representative Matt Gaetz
delivered a thorough evisceration of Al Sharpton today [9/19/2019] that will long be remembered. Keep in mind that
every Democrat candidate for President has kissed the ring of Sharpton in recent months. Oh, the backfire in this
hearing was over-the-top. Chairman Nadler was so stressed out he couldn't function. The democrats on the House
Judiciary Committee went absolutely bonkers and lost their minds as Gaetz continued to expose Sharpton's history of bigotry
and antisemitism. A whole new generation of younger viewers were treated to the history of Sharpton.
House Hearing Erupts After
Republican Confronts Al Sharpton Over Anti-Semitic, Anti-White Remarks. A House Judiciary Committee hearing on
policing erupted Thursday after GOP Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz confronted Al Sharpton over anti-Semitic and anti-white
remarks he has allegedly made throughout his career. During the hearing, Gaetz used his allotted time to read quotes
attributed to Sharpton about Jewish people, whites and some blacks. "Have you ever referred to members of the Jewish
faith as 'white interlopers' or 'diamond merchants?'" Gaetz asked at one point during a tense back-and-forth.
Dems
Cite Discredited SPLC to Sic the IRS on Conservative 'Hate Groups'. In a House of Representatives committee
hearing on Thursday, Democrats cited the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) in calling on the IRS to remove tax-exempt status
from "hate groups." Only one Democrat referenced the SPLC by name, but many cited the SPLC secondhand in warning that
more than 60 tax-exempt non-profit groups registered with the IRS are "hate groups." Earlier this year, the SPLC cleaned
out its leadership amid scandal and its politically biased "hate group" list was outed as a fundraising tool.
Biden Talks Racism On Anniversary
Of Klu Klux Klan Bombing: 'Hate Is On The Rise Again'. 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden warned
against racism and white supremacy Sunday [9/15/2019], saying that "hate is on the rise again." The former vice president
spoke Sunday to a largely black congregation in memory of the 56th anniversary of the bombing at 16th Street Baptist Church
in Birmingham, Alabama, according to CNN.
The Editor says...
Every day of the year is the aniversary of some long-forgotten event in the distant past that can be dug up and used as political leverage.
Beto's Racist City Upon a Hill.
"We can mark the creation of this country not at the Fourth of July, 1776, but August 20, 1619, when the first kidnapped
African was brought to this country against his will and in bondage and as a slave built the greatness, and the success, and
the wealth that neither he nor his descendants would ever be able to participate in or enjoy." So says Beto O'Rourke,
Boy Beto, here in the form of Professor Beto, lecturing the Democrat faithful at the party debate in Houston last week, the
day after America mourned the anniversary of 9/11. But it wasn't the evil of 9/11 that was in Beto's crosshairs; it was
America, at its very core. Beto explained that racism was not merely "endemic" to America but "foundational." It's
a line that works fabulously for Beto among fellow progressives, who stomp and applaud enthusiastically.
Rep.
Ilhan Omar: 'God Expects Us To Do The Righteous Work' In Politics. At a "Plight of Black Immigrants" forum,
Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), a Muslim, suggested her god expects people to vote in a certain way. "God expects us
to do the righteous work," Omar said. "And, so, god does not expect you to vote for people who will ultimately hurt
you and other humans around you." [...] How likely is it that journalists will follow up on these comments by asking Omar
in future interviews how, exactly, she thinks her god Allah influences her votes?
Why
Beto O' Rourke's Embrace Of The 1619 Project Is Dangerous. In Thursday night's Democratic primary debate,
candidate Beto O' Rourke claimed that Americans should "mark the creation of this country not at the Fourth of July, 1776,
but August 20, 1619, when the first kidnapped African was brought to this country against his will." O'Rourke's
comments were inspired by The New York Times' 1619 Project, which "aims to reframe the country's history" by placing 1619 as
our true founding. The project is a collection of essays, literary works, and curriculum all aimed at this new
understanding of American history. This project is dangerous enough as a misguided intellectual exercise, but its
danger to our republic increases exponentially once put in the hands of a radical politician who could one day be president.
Sure
Democrats Will Lose in 2020, But They Are Dangerous Now, And Must Be Stopped! When one of the candidates looks
into a camera and proclaims the United States to be plagued with "systemic racism" you know they are lying. But when
the entire group does it — hundreds of times in three hours — it takes on a perverse sense of strategy.
[...] In America you have individuals who have made it to the top of every industry of every race and background. We
are the least racist nation on the planet. Yet the Democratic candidates are willing to slander their fellow
countrymen, if it will help them turn out 15 percent more votes in heavily Democratic districts where these lies are
continually repeated.
Contractors
may have to reveal past ties to slavery to get business with New York City. City contractors would have to
reveal past ties to slavery under a Council bill that will be introduced on Thursday [9/12/2019]. The legislation would
require companies to search their history and records to determine if they or any affiliated entities engaged in or profited
from the slave trade when they enter in or renew city contracts of $100,000 or more.
The White
Nationalism Fraud Part 1. It is time to take a look at "white nationalism" from an honest perspective.
Over the past several weeks, there have been mass shootings on an unprecedented level that is being explained by the "white
nationalism" that we are told is throughout our culture. Progressive socialists speak of it as a fast-moving epidemic
that is infecting every straight white male in the country. The media and progressive socialists have invented the
"racism" trope against President Trump because of the collapse of the Russian collusion hoax. The Senior Editor of the
New York Times instructed his so-called journalists that this would be the main focus until the 2020 election.
A Fellowship of Losers.
The Communist Manifesto is the greatest monument to erroneous thinking but profound persuasion in the history of
thought. Marx was an extremely talented propagandist. He was a grossly incompetent economist. A theme of
the Manifesto is that oppression permeates all societies. Initially it was about the oppression of workers (the
proletariat) by owners (the bourgeoisie). Now leftists view all societal relationships through the prism of
oppression — only the placeholders change: one race against another, Palestinians versus Israelis, male
versus female. The world is divided between the oppressors and the oppressed. This view provides the foundation
for identity politics and also makes it easy to accuse people of racism.
Joe
Biden Says Racism a 'White Man's Problem,' Will Not Promise Black Running Mate. Joe Biden claimed racism is institutional
in America on Tuesday [8/27/2019], but would not commit wholeheartedly to picking a person of color as his running mate if he were to win
the Democrat presidential nomination. [...] Biden, who leads his fellow 2020 Democrats substantially among black voters, claimed that
President Donald Trump had only furthered those divisions by using rhetoric that appeals "to the worst d*** instincts of human nature."
Along similar lines, the former vice president has accused Trump of fanning the "flames of white supremacy" in recent weeks, as he attempts
to portray the next election as a referendum on the nation's soul.
The Editor says...
The nation does not have a soul, nor is the next presidential election a referendum on anything so abstract.
Biden:
Racism in US is institutional, 'white man's problem'. Racism in America is an institutional "white man's
problem visited on people of color," Vice President Joe Biden said Tuesday, arguing that the way to attack the issue is to
defeat President Donald Trump and hold him responsible for deepening the nation's racial divide.
Seattle
Councilman Argues Power Washers are Racist, Since Hoses [were] Used Against Blacks in [the] Past. Seattle has a
human feces problem on their streets and sidewalks. But the city council cannot agree on how to remove the crap.
Councilmember Larry Gossett says power-washing the sidewalks bring up images of using hoses against civil rights activists.
The Editor says...
Maybe so, but piles of feces in the street "bring up images" of the baboon cage at the zoo.
Presidential
candidates support rescinding medals for Wounded Knee Massacre. Some of the Democratic presidential candidates
said they support rescinding the 20 Medals of Honor awarded to U.S. soldiers for the 1890 Wounded Knee Massacre.
Marcella LeBeau, a member of the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe, asked candidates for their thoughts on rescinding the Medals of
Honor during the second day of the Frank LeMere Native American Presidential Forum in Sioux City on Tuesday [8/20/2019].
"Back home on the Cheyenne River Reservation, I believe there is a pervasive sadness that exists there because of unresolved
grief," LeBeau told the candidates.
Robert
Mueller crushed their dreams, so Democrats pivot to race. What was the embittered left — Democratic
presidential candidates and their media allies — supposed to do when their hopes of Russia-Trump collusion crashed
on the boulevard of broken dreams? Pivot. They had invested so much in their fantasy that President Donald Trump
was a treasonous agent of Russian boss Vladimir Putin. But when special counsel Robert Mueller's report came out, and
there was no collusion, no crime charged, their fantasy collapsed. And so, after a brief spasm of despair, the left
pivoted to their default position: race.
Reparations
for slavery emerge as issue among Democrats running for president. When University of Connecticut professor
Thomas Craemer first began researching reparations for slavery, most mainstream white politicians weren't talking about the
issue. Now, more than a dozen years later, the idea that African Americans should receive restitution for the grievous
legacy of enslavement and racial discrimination is sparking a political debate that is helping to shape the 2020 presidential race.
Sanders,
Warren Ask Black Christians to Put Their Faith in Government. In front of a crowd of black Christian
millennials on Saturday, a pair of leading 2020 Democratic candidates asked the faithful to put their trust in the
government. Left-wing darlings Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.) and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) appeared
back-to-back at a presidential forum put on by Black Church PAC, a day after three other Democratic hopefuls attended the
same Young Leaders Conference in Atlanta.
Beto:
Trump Leading a 'Concerted, Organized Attack Against' People of Color. Sunday [8/18/2019] on NBC's "Meet the
Press," 2020 presidential hopeful former Rep. Beto O'Rourke (D-TX) said President Donald Trump was engaged in a
"concerted, organized attack against immigrants, against people of color."
How
Al Sharpton Abandoned Africa's Slaves. The eminent African-American economist Glenn Loury recently wondered in
the New York Times why leading Democrats would defend Al Sharpton, a man who is a blatant anti-Semite, an anti-white racist,
and to many, a simple con man. Joe Biden calls him "a champion in the fight for civil rights." Elizabeth Warren says
"he has dedicated his life to the fight for justice for all," and Kamala Harris lauds him as a man who "has spent his life
fighting for what's right." Records show that President Obama had Sharpton visit his White House 118 times. This, after
Sharpton's many outrages: the Tawana Brawley rape hoax of 1987, the anti-Jewish Crown Heights riots of 1991, and the firebombing
of a Jewish-owned Harlem fashion boutique in 1995. Loury suggests that any one of these things should have disqualified
Sharpton from national platforms, along with any praise by Democratic Party leaders.
No, Really:
Al Sharpton Considering 2020 Presidential Bid. I, for one, would welcome Al Sharpton's entrance to the 2020
Democratic primary. Sharpton's has made a career out of race-baiting, which has now become mainstream in the Democratic
Party. If Joe Biden can be the frontrunner, despite his inappropriate behavior with women and young girls, Sharpton's
controversial past is certainly not going to be a roadblock for him. It would certainly be humorous to see Sharpton
explain how Trump is a racist despite their past friendship, and it would be equally amusing to see Trump rehash Sharpton's
role in the Tawana Brawley hoax.
Stacey
Abrams: RNC Going to Send Off-Duty Officers to Scare 'Voters of Color'. Tuesday [8/13/2019] on MSNBC's
"The Rachel Maddow Show," former Georgia Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams accused the Republican National
Committee of planning to send off-duty law enforcement officers into minority neighborhoods to "scare voters, particularly
voters of color."
Jackson
Lee: 'Racism is a national security threat'. Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) on Tuesday said the Trump
administration should declare racist beliefs a threat to U.S. national security. During a hearing of the House Homeland
Security Committee, Jackson Lee said that the attack in her home state of Texas last week displayed the danger of ignoring
U.S. residents who foster white supremacist views. "I believe that racism ... should be declared a national security
threat," Jackson Lee said.
Harris, Warren ignore DOJ report to claim Michael Brown was
'murdered'. In November 2014, a grand jury decided not to indict [Darren] Wilson after finding that witness
reports did not match with evidence. On March 4, 2015, the Obama administration's Justice Department issued an 86-page
investigative report, based on testimony from 40 witnesses and a review of forensic evidence, on the shooting that concluded
"there is no credible evidence that Wilson willfully shot [Michael] Brown as he was attempting to surrender or was otherwise not
posing a threat." The same day, the Justice Department also published the results of its investigation into the Ferguson
Police Department, which highlighted systemic exploitation and racial profiling of black residents in Ferguson, such as racial
disparities in traffic stops even though black drivers were less likely to be found with contraband. [Kamala] Harris and
[Elizabeth] Warren appear to accept the results of one report and not the other.

about Ferguson.
This isn't
normal politics. This is an inquisition. We aren't having a discussion on race in this nation; we are
having an inquisition. Every day, the Left spews hate-filled attacks on the president of the United States, his family,
and his supporters, and there is no reasoning with them. Their blood is boiling, their veins are popping, their grimy
hands are pointing long, spindly fingers at all of us. You cannot criticize certain people of a certain party. It
doesn't work to criticize policy any more, because policy is lumped together with race and social justice. Therefore,
any criticism of policy is actually construed as wanting to put black people back into slavery.
The
Left Is on a Mission to Annihilate Conservatism. Sen. Cory Booker is also casting Trump and his supporters
as white supremacists. Here's the logic: Trump is a white supremacist because he wants to protect the border.
A white supremacist, who may not even be a Trump supporter, slaughtered people. Therefore, Trump incited the massacre.
And those callous enough to support Trump must be white supremacists as well. Though Booker called on Trump to denounce
white supremacy after the shooting, when Trump did just that, Booker would not accept it. Moreover, Booker's campaign team
called for cancellation of all Trump rallies because they are a "breeding ground for racism and bigotry."
The
Left Is on a Mission to Annihilate Conservatism. While President Donald Trump is an ideal scapegoat for leftist
hatred and demagoguery, the left's ultimate goal is to permanently reduce conservatism and the Republican Party to minority
status by indelibly associating them with racism. Listen to what the Democratic presidential candidates and other
Democrats are saying. If you support border enforcement, you are a racist. If you support Trump, who pushes
border enforcement, you are a racist. If you don't condemn Trump for being a white supremacist, which he is not, you
are a white supremacist.
Debut
of the Democrat-Media 'White Terrorist' Smear. Get ready for the new 'Progressive' norm. If you voted for
Donald Trump, wear a MAGA cap in public, question in any way the radical Democrat narrative, you are no longer a 'patriot'.
You are a 'nationalist', a 'white supremacist', but now even an out-and-out 'white terrorist'. That's the narrative the
Democrats are shoehorning you into: 'Donald Trump's a "racist", 'an unapologetic nationalist', 'a White supremacist' and
since the El Paso massacre by a crazed shooter, 'A White Terrorist'. If you voted for Trump over Hillary Clinton in
2016, plan to vote for him again in 2020, or support him in any way, you are a 'White Terrorist' too.
Why Are Democrats
Defending Al Sharpton? When I first heard that President Trump had gone after the Rev. Al Sharpton —
and that Mr. Sharpton had responded in kind — I must admit that I laughed. Are there two New York City
hustlers who deserve one another more? But 48 hours later, I feel differently. That's thanks to the leading
Democratic candidates for president, who have rushed to Mr. Sharpton's defense, extolling his supposed virtues as a
civil-rights paragon while denouncing Mr. Trump's attack as racist. In doing so, they have, yet again, taken
Mr. Trump's bait, handing him another easy victory while yoking themselves to a genuine bigot.
Al Sharpton is not a lifelong fighter for justice.
Al Sharpton — who should still be seen as a notorious hate figure but has somehow escaped that fate —
practically tripped over himself trying to get Trump's attention. It worked. "Al is a con man, a troublemaker,
always looking for a score," Trump tweeted. "Just doing his thing. Must have intimidated Comcast/NBC. Hates
Whites & Cops!" Then ensued one of the more depressing news cycles of the year, as major Democratic presidential candidates
praised Sharpton to the heavens. [...] Calling Sharpton a lifelong fighter for "justice" ignores his history of race-baiting and
deadly anti-Semitic incitement.
President
Trump Shatters Left-Wing Myths. President Trump is boldly providing much-needed relief to the American
people. He is untying us from the bonds of political correctness that have, in un-American fashion, forced Americans to
accept liberal myths and farces. [...] It's about time someone, as the President did, stopped all this baloney and labeled Al
Sharpton the con-man he has been for decades. In the name of being a "civil rights leader", Sharpton has gotten away
with not paying millions of dollars in owed taxes; fomented rioting against Brooklyn's religious Jews; led — with
self-proclaimed racist Sonny Carson — a boycott of a Korean grocery store, where protesters called the owners
"yellow monkeys"; held anti-Semitic, racially-charged rallies that led to the Freddy's Department Store massacre; and
knowingly and purposely destroyed the lives of two white police officers in the Tawana Brawley hoax.
NY
Times Op-Ed: Democrats Will Lose Cheering On 'Ambulance-Chasing, Anti-Semitic' Al Sharpton. Brown
University professor Glenn C. Loury said that Democrats are doomed to lose when they cheer-on "ambulance-chasing, anti-Semitic,
anti-white race hustler" Rev. Al Sharpton. Although Loury at first appeared to find it amusing that "two New York City
hustlers" like Sharpton and President Donald Trump would be sparring over whether it's racist to call Baltimore a "disgusting, rat
and rodent-infested mess," he began to think twice when so many Democratic presidential candidates began lauding Sharpton as a
symbol of civil rights progress.
Al Charlatan.
Al Sharpton was there in 1987 when Tawana Brawley was raped — not. When she was smeared with feces by an
attacker — not. He was her voice piece, her advocate, the Reverend Al. He had been James Brown's tour
manager for seven years, so the Rev. Al knew media. He knew how to grab their attention. Three years
earlier, he had emerged as a great racial leader when he cried "racist" at Bernhard Goetz, who had shot four youths on a New
York City subway train. Goetz went to trial and was found not guilty on all charges, except for possession of an
unlicensed firearm. Sharpton demanded a further federal inquiry into Goetz's racism. He got his inquiry, and they
found that Goetz had feared for his safety, unrelated to race. Al Sharpton was off to the races — or, more
accurately, to baiting the races. By 1991, Sharpton was helping incite Jew hatred and a pogrom in the streets of Crown
Heights, Brooklyn. A frenzied incited mob murdered a Jew, Yankel Rosenbaum. Four years later, Sharpton helped
incite further race riots against Jews in Harlem, resulting in the burning of a clothing store and in street deaths during
the Freddy's Fashion Mart Massacre.
Democrats'
Embrace Of Al Sharpton Exposes Their Hypocrisy. If Donald Trump attacked Somalian warlords on Twitter, The
Atlantic would run a 10,000-word piece explaining why decentralized Somali rule is actually good for minorities.
Because it's no longer sufficient to be a Trump antagonist, no longer enough to stick the word "racist" in every news piece
and broadcast; a real patriot embraces all the president's enemies, no matter how morally loathsome. [...] Now, one might
legitimately be slighted by the president's attacks on [Elijah] Cummings, but his words about [Al] Sharpton are hardly
debatable. Trump could have added that Sharpton was an unrepentant anti-Semite who had incited riots that led to a
pogrom in Brooklyn and a massacre in Harlem, not to mention the defamation of police officers surrounding Tawana Brawley,
whose life, like so many others, he had ruined with his hucksterism. Instead, we had an arms race in crazy.
Baltimore
and Cummings: Democrat grifters peddle racism and broken cities. After holding his congressional seat for
three decades Elijah Cummings and his wife live atop a congressional empire worth millions while a vast swath of his constituents
lives in squalor. Nothing President Trump has tweeted about Cummings district or the horrific state of the city of
Baltimore is inaccurate. When Bernie Sanders called Baltimore a third world country it was a considered a reasoned
critique. When Donald Trump does it it's called racism.
How
to Tell if a Trump Supporter Is Racist. Every non-liberal leftist — that is, nearly every Democrat
running for president, New York Times and Washington Post columnist, CNN and MSNBC host, and your left-wing brother-in-law —
labels every Trump supporter and, of course, President Donald Trump, a "racist." And they don't stop there. Leftists
don't only label the half of the country that supports the president "racist," they label all whites and America itself "racist."
If your son or daughter attends or recently attended an American university, it is close to certain he or she was repeatedly told
that America and all whites are racist. According to the left, whites are divided between those who admit they are racist
and those who don't admit it.
Yelling
'racist' won't clean up our cities. [Scroll down] So it seems we can't talk about our southern border
because to do so is racist. We can't have a dialogue about problematic inner-city schools because any such discussion
is racist. America can't debate violent crime because the judicial system is racist. America cannot move forward
in any way because liberals don't want to. They like things the way they are — the crime, the rats, the
drugs, the decay, and the rot.
Democrats
Flock to Defend Racist, Anti-Semitic Sharpton. [Scroll down] What we have here are three Democratic
presidential candidates — Warren, Harris, and de Blasio — defending Sharpton, a guy with a career-long
record of documented racism and anti-Semitism flavored with outright homophobia. And not unnoticed here? Racism
and anti-Semitism as blatantly exhibited by Sharpton are exactly the same beliefs and behaviors on vivid display from "The
Squad" of Congresswomen Ilhan Omar, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ayanna Pressley, and Rashida Tlaib.
Trump
is absolutely right about 'con man' Al Sharpton. Al Sharpton has been making a good living for 35 years now,
pushing New York and the nation as far as his bullhorn audacity will carry him — which is pretty [...] far for a
one-time FBI informer who started with nothing and brought even less to the table. He rode an eagerness to exploit
racial discord, a couple of incendiary slogans and the cowardice of state, local and national leadership to fame and fortune.
Rob
Reiner Says All Trump Supporters are Racist. Filmmaker and left-wing activist Rob Reiner has declared that all
supporters of President Donald Trump are racist, claiming that Trump has made it "abundantly clear" his re-election
[campaign] is based on white nationalism. Posting on his Twitter feed, which is almost entirely dedicated to attacking
Trump and the current administration, Reiner explained that voting for Trump means there is no distinction between "being a
racist and a racist enabler."
Al
Sharpton responds to Trump: I'm happy to make trouble for racists and people like you. The Rev. Al
Sharpton confirmed President Trump's assertion that he's a troublemaker. Sharpton says he's happy to keep making
trouble for racists and "people like" Trump. Trump accused Sharpton of being racist against white people and a
political swindler in an early-morning tweet Monday [7/29/2019].
Sen.
Ron Wyden Escorts 8 1/2 Months Pregnant Mexican Woman and Her Family Across Border Into US. Sen. Ron Wyden
(D-OR) posted a video Saturday bragging about how he had escorted an eight-and-a-half months pregnant migrant from Mexico
into the U.S. because the woman allegedly was having a difficult pregnancy. Wyden does not tell viewers that the woman
is a Mexican citizen and that she brought her husband and 3-year-old son with her across the border. Apparently there
are no competent maternity hospitals in Mexico.
The Editor says...
There may be hospitals in Mexico, but they don't offer free U.S. citizenship with every birth.
The Democrats,
Not Trump, Are the Racists. It doesn't take Nostradamus, or even a Coney Island fortune teller, to predict the
coming Democratic presidential debates will be filled to overflowing with accusations of racism toward Donald Trump.
Not only that, the candidates will certainly be doing their bests, directly or by innuendo, to tarnish each other with the
same ugly brush in an almost always fallacious manner.
Reparations
and Racial Politicking. [A]ll the Democratic candidates have to do something about the continuing lead of Joe
Biden in the polls. Racial politicking is one method they have chosen. Thus, in the first presidential debates,
Kamala Harris' accused Joe Biden of almost being a racist for not supporting school busing 40 years ago — while
introducing her attack by stating that she was not accusing him of being a racist. Likewise, Cory Booker, already a
critic of Biden about race and specifically about Biden's statements in the first presidential debate, has stated that he may
step up that criticism at the next debates.
Democrats
Use the Specter of Racism to Sow Racial Discord. [Scroll down] Even so-called "centrists," such as Joe
Biden and Hillary Clinton, have built their presidential campaigns on foundations of radical identity politics just as
intently as the party's far left wing. Today, one is just as likely to hear talk of "structural racism" and "white
privilege" from the lips of Nancy Pelosi, Joe Biden, or Robert Francis "Beto" O'Rourke as from Senator Elizabeth Warren or
Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Biden, who is trying to run as a consummate centrist, even made the
discredited Charlottesville hoax the center of his campaign launch. Their goal is to galvanize minority voters by
stoking the unfounded fears of white revanchism and by portraying Republicans as an imminent danger.
Today's
identity politics erases the goal of a color-blind society. There was a time not long ago when men and women of
goodwill, liberal and conservative, sought to create a genuinely color-blind society. [...] On the left, four freshman U.S.
representatives of growing prominence embrace a contrary philosophy. One of them, Rep.Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., declared:
"We don't need any more brown faces that don't want to be brown voices. We don't need black faces that don't want to be
black voices."
The Squad Becomes the Untouchables.
Watch and see: In short order, if not already, criticism of these three will be reflexively denounced by the mass of
liberaldom as racist and sexist. The beatification process is already underway. The members of the Squad are
appearing together in TV interviews stoically framing themselves as (in AOC's words) "fighters" for "justice" against the
evil Trump's "weaponized" "bottom-to-the-barrel vitriol." Last week, with President Trump rolling his Twitter grenade, was
portrayed as a political martyrdom for these poor, unfortunate, mild, meek, silent lambs. The Squad will become the
Untouchables.
Media
cried wolf: Calling every Republican a racist lost its bite. Once upon a time in the world of cable news,
a guest or host or anchor calling anyone a racist would have considerable impact. From what we've seen this week, when
it comes to that word, those days are long gone. A person simply can't turn on the news or scroll Twitterfor even more
than a minute before hearing the word "racist" or "racism." For example, CNN and MSNBC said the word "racist" more than
1,100 times from Sunday to Tuesday, according to a tally conducted by Grabien Media, an online media production and news
prep service. The count, which doesn't include on-screen graphics commonly known as chyrons, [...]
How Beto
Made Himself into White-Privilege Guy. Robert Francis O'Rourke is white. If it's any consolation, he's
very sorry about that. "Beto" has been running from his Irish ancestry for some time now. Long before the Left
fell headlong into the logical termini of its triune fascination with race, power, and privilege, O'Rourke sensed that there
was a currency to be had in becoming "Beto" rather than "Robert Francis."
"Racism":
It's Not What It Used To Be. It sometimes seems that conservatives are accused of being "racist" any time they
disagree with a black Democrat. The converse, of course, isn't true. No one has ever called a Democrat a racist
for disagreeing with, say, Thomas Sowell. It turns out that, crazy as it may seem, there are a great many Americans who
think it is racist to disagree with a black politician (assuming that he or she is a Democrat). This is Rasmussen's
stunning finding: ["]Thirty-two percent (32%) of Democrats, however, say it's racist for any white politician
to criticize the political views of a politician of color.["] So being a "politician of color" means that your
views are immune to disagreement. Unless — once again — you are a Republican.
'Racism': A Cliché
Fastened to a Dying Animal. [Scroll down] This brings us to the question that very few have bothered to
ask about Trump's Sunday morning tweet storm: Was it actually racist? I didn't bother to read the tweets when
they first appeared. Nor was I moved to do so in response to the subsequent uproar. Everything the president says
or does is instantly denounced by the Democrats and their media allies as racist, cruel, crazy, or crass. So it just
sounded like another day at the office for Trump. I finally got around to reading them today and fail to see the
catalogue of crimes his critics claim to see.
Omar - her
racism means she would not like me very much. Ilhan Omar does not like white people. Her dislike, like
any other brand of racism, is visceral. She seems not to understand that white is a color, too. Based on the
photos I have seen of her, she cares as little for generic white women as she does for white people in general. Do a
Google Image search. In hundreds of photos, she appears with few white women. Nancy Pelosi. A few trans
women/people in drag. But not many pictures with women like me. Middle class, Midwestern-born women.
Greg
Gutfeld Mocks CNN, MSNBC for 1,100 Uses of 'Racist' in Two Days on Trump. On Tuesday night's episode of The
Five, Fox News pundit Greg Gutfeld mocking the collective mass hysteria of CNN and MSNBC over President Trump's latest
tweets against radical first-term Congresswomen. Gutfeld summarized the hysterics to a T with a simple word
count: "We are reaching peak racism right now. CNN and MSNBC, according to The Hill this morning, had said the
word racist 1,100 times. That was this morning [7/16/2019] since Sunday [7/14/2019]. Ok, so today's Tuesday... I
think when it's 1,100 times by Tuesday afternoon, I'd call that maybe an overreaction. It's hysterical and it's hysteria."

List
of Racist Statements by Members of the 'Squad' (So Far). It is worth noting that all four —
Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), and Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) are members
of a group called the "Justice Democrats." The group is specifically devoted to backing primary candidates against Democratic
incumbents seen as being too moderate and too white. Last November, the Justice Democrats launched a campaign called
"#OurTime," aimed at recruiting candidates to challenge "Democratic incumbents who are demographically and ideologically
out-of-touch with their districts."
Democrats
Are One Hundred Percent Wrong about Racism. To say that the Democrats are obsessed with race these days is the
equivalent of saying the sky is blue. [...] It's all about racism — yours. The Dems' presidential campaigns
are based around proving the other man or woman is more of a racist and vice versa, or about showing you're not so racist as
people say you are, even if you are or even if you pretended to be a race you weren't. And don't you dare
criticize Ilhan Omar or you're a triple-racist even if her ideas are more racist than anyone else's.
Pressley
proves it's all about race: 'We don't need any more brown faces that don't want to be a brown voice'. The
"squad" of four radical freshman Democrats have a dangerous habit of wanting to dictate what is or isn't acceptable in
American politics, mandates made by those who look at life through the lens of color — as in the color of your
skin. Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., and Ayanna Pressley,
D-Mass., have become the face of the Democratic Party and the progressive ideologues cast themselves in the role of victims
Monday during a news conference to respond to President Trump calling them out for their abject contempt for America.
Biden:
No POTUS Has Been as 'Openly Racist and Divisive' as Trump. While speaking to reporters, 2020 Democratic
presidential candidate former Vice President Joe Biden reacted to President Trump's tweets about Democratic congresswomen by
stating that "there has never been a president in American history who has been so openly racist and divisive" as Trump.
The Editor says...
Really? What about Barack
H.
Obama?
Joe
Biden once warned that without 'orderly integration,' his children would 'grow up in a racial jungle'. [Scroll
down] Biden has tied his long civil rights record into his presidential campaign, and some black leaders in Wilmington,
Delaware praised Biden for it. Yet he also "promoted nearly a dozen pieces of legislation" aimed at limiting federal
busing programs, and despite his claims otherwise, outright said "I oppose busing" in 1975, the [New York] Times
reports. And in 1977, Biden made a particularly questionable argument against using busing to achieve integration.
Trump
is not a racist; he's pushing the Overton window to normal. When Occasional Cortex accused Nancy Pelosi of
racism, Rep. William Lacy Clay (D-Mo), a member of both the Black and Progressive Congressional caucuses opined, "What a
weak argument. Because you can't get your way and because you're getting pushback you resort to using the race
card? Unbelievable. Unbelievable to me." Likewise, Maureen Dowd also piped up with "A.O.C. should consider
the possibility that people who disagree with her do not disagree with her color." Coming from people who've spent the
last 11 years insisting that racism is the only reason anyone can disagree with their agenda, that's pretty rich.
Democrats
Hold a Terrible Hand of Race Cards. The race card is being thrown back in the faces of those who have played it
for decades. The term "racist" has become such a cliché that it no longer carries any weight or meaning. [...]
How many Democrat Senators proudly worked with former KKK Grand Cyclops Senator Robert Byrd for decades, some even calling him
their "mentor" as Hillary Clinton did?

Kamala Harris (D-CA) was on the show to discuss her 2020 presidential run. Meghan McCain was the only host to ask
Harris about her stance on decriminalizing illegal immigration, while the other hosts focused heavily on race-related

balance" after President Trump had supposedly dismantled everything presidents before him had done for minorities:

the racists in the Democrats' president field. Is Democratic presidential candidate, Kamala Harris a racist
because she has proposed a $100-billion housing subsidy only for people of color? Even if they earn as much as $125K a
year or more than twice the U.S. household median income of $60,336 in 2017. Not since the passage of the 14th Amendment
to the U.S. Constitution in 1868 has the federal government passed a race-based financial subsidy. Since at least the
1860s, federal funds have been colorblind and have given to all based on need as defined by income, not race. Providing
funds based on race is, of course, unconstitutional, but lawyer and former state attorney general Harris does not care.
She is trying to prove she can compete in the socialist giveaway of your and our children's money. She is trying to
prove she is the blackest black in the room.
Buttigieg's
pander: a Marshall Plan for black America. Even at its peak, the Buttigieg campaign faced a huge problem —
lack of support from African-Americans. One poll I saw had him at zero percent among this cohort. You can't make a credible
run at the Democratic nomination for president with zero percent black support. Things got even worse when an African-American in
South Bend, Indiana, of which Buttigieg is mayor, was shot and killed by a white police officer. As far as I can tell, the
officer acted prudently and lawfully. Reportedly, the deceased was armed and engaging in criminal behavior. But such details
seldom matter either to the black community or to Democratic politicians.
A
desperate Beto O'Rourke goes for broke, claims America was founded on white supremacy. A failing campaign makes
a man desperate, and Beto O'Rourke surely is a desperate man. The former Texas congressman was asked this week at
roundtable event featuring immigrant and refugee participants to explain how President O'Rourke would fight white supremacy
in the United States. "I know this from my home state, Texas, places that formed the Confederacy, that this country was
founded on white supremacy," the poorly polling 2020 Democratic primary candidate responded. He added, "And every
single institution and structure that we have in this country still reflects the legacy of slavery and segregation and Jim
Crow and suppression, even in our democracy." Remember: O'Rourke was addressing immigrants and refugees.
Welcome to America, you idiots.
Vermont's
governor calls his own state's people irredeemably racist. Vermont's culture is one of dairy farming, verdant
mountain scenery, maple syrup, and small-town hospitality. Both the governor and the gubernatorial hopeful who may
oppose him next year openly characterize Vermonters' culture as innately racist. Scott praised Donovan's Report declaring
Vermont a "White Supremacy Culture" and proudly signed a law March 29 that will create a school curriculum designed to
"change the underlying culture of our state." Like all states, Vermont has racists. But slavery was never legal
in Vermont, being banned in the first state constitution in America.
'This
country was founded on white supremacy': Beto O'Rourke speaks with Tennessee immigrants. On his second day of
events in Nashville, Democratic presidential candidate Beto O'Rourke met with immigrants and refugees living in Tennessee on
Monday [7/8/2019] for a roundtable discussion. O'Rourke, a former Texas congressman, first held a rally at Marathon
Music Works on Sunday, drawing hundreds of supporters to the campaign event where he largely focused on immigration and
decried President Donald Trump's policies on detaining migrants at the southern border.
The
Democrats' Situational Racism. When all else fails for the left, they drag out the race card. Why
not? It's worked in the past, ushering in our first black president in 2008. At least that's how Barack Obama is
described. In reality he is only half black, with a black father (officially the Kenyan Barack Senior, or possibly
Frank Marshall Davis, according to some). His mother, Stanley Ann Dunham, was as white as Joe Biden or Elizabeth Warren.
The media of the time called for the half-white portion of Obama's heritage to be ignored rather than muddy the waters of his
being America's first black president. Yet during the Obama presidency, for different political reasoning the media
went out of its way to make a point of the mixed heritage of another individual, specifically George Zimmerman.
Pete
Buttigieg Warns Black Americans of Another Civil War. Mayor Pete Buttigieg on Tuesday [7/2/2019] warned Black
Americans of a new civil war if the federal government failed to end racist institutions and pay reparations for slavery.
"If we do not tackle the problem of racial inequality in my lifetime, I am convinced that it will upend the American project
in my lifetime," he warned. "It brought our country to its knees once and if we do not act, it could again."
The Editor says...
Was that a warning of an impending civil war, or an incitement of civil war?
Jesse
Jackson opens up on 2020 and the changing Democratic Party. The 77-year-old two-time presidential candidate's
roaring sermons have become more muted and mumbled. His walk has become slow, unsteady. Parkinson's disease has
taken its toll. At a news conference here over the weekend with Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, she held
up the microphone for him when he spoke. Jackson's Rainbow PUSH Coalition event on Saturday at the 4,000-capacity
Apostolic Faith Church drew only a few hundred people.
School
busing and race tore L.A. apart in the 1970s. Now, Kamala Harris is reviving debate. Few issues divided
Los Angeles more in the 1970s than school desegregation and busing. It sparked protests and political movements —
and led to white families fleeing from the Los Angeles Unified School District. These issues came back to life at the
Democratic presidential debate. In a heated exchange, Kamala Harris accused Joe Biden of not taking a morally correct
position in favor of an assertive federal role in the busing of students to achieve integration.
California liberals hate capitalism, until it becomes useful.
Kamala
Harris takes criticism for offering 'That little girl was me' T-shirt online for $30. Kamala Harris' campaign
capitalized on her viral debate moment with Joe Biden on Thursday night [6/27/2019], making a "That little girl was me" T-shirt
available via her campaign website. At the Democratic debate in Miami, Harris attacked Biden's decades-ago work with
segregationist senators, making the point personal by explaining she was a member of only the second class of black children
in California to be bused to school in an effort to force desegregation.
California
poised to ban hairstyle discrimination. This is California, remember. The Golden state is perched to
become the first in the nation to ban discrimination based on unique hairstyles, mainly targeting blacks. The measure,
which has passed both chambers of the state legislature, could be signed by Gov. Gavin Newsom as soon as next week.
Multiculturalism Is a Nation
Killer. The civil rights movement started out with demands for basic human dignity. Once those were met,
it legitimately demanded equality of opportunity, and once that was achieved, it demanded preferential treatment where
equality of opportunity was redefined, in Orwellian fashion, as equality of result. Flush with success, it now demands
reparations where those who never were enslaved will receive compensation from those who never owned slaves, all in the name
of virtue and justice. By nature, humans are tribal. Tribalism is the easiest way to organize people and mobilize
them politically. Until very recently, America was a multi-ethnic society with a dominant culture. That culture
is breaking apart as we become more tribal, and we begin to think of ourselves in terms of tribal loyalties, as reinforced by
political elites.
Beto
O'Rourke says white Americans don't know the full story of slavery, continues to support reparations.
Democratic presidential candidate Beto O'Rourke took an unconventional approach to reaching out to African-American voters
Friday, meeting with a small group representing a community of slave descendants in South Carolina and saying white Americans
do not know the full story of slavery. O'Rourke spent Friday [6/14/20919] at a Baptist church in Beaufort, S.C., where
the former Texas congressman met with leaders of the Gullah/Geechee Nation, a culture of coastal slave descendants whose
separation from the mainland allowed them to retain much of their African heritage, including a unique dialect and skills
such as cast-net fishing and basket weaving.
Minneapolis' Sacred Stupidity.
[Scroll down] Which brings us to Minneapolis, the hometown of the illustrious illegal immigrant and tax-evading
congresswoman Ilhan Omar. And one Jacob Frey, the Democrat mayor of the City of Lakes, who thought it a wonderful idea
to commemorate the 400th anniversary of black slaves arriving at the English colony at Jamestown, Virginia by holding
something the city's "Racial Equity Coordinators" call "400 Years of Resistance and Liberation. Remembering,
Recovering, Reimagining — Sacred Conversations with City Staff." There were never black slaves in
Minneapolis, unless perhaps some were brought by recent Somali immigrants to that city given that black slavery is alive and
well in Somalia (perhaps Rep. Omar might speak on the subject with more expertise than your author). It would appear
more appropriate that Minneapolis celebrate its historical status as a refuge for escaped and freed slaves in the 19th century,
but that isn't the kind of thing that would hook in the rubes, is it? So instead we must have Sacred Conversations.
Segregation
Comes to Minnesota. It has often been observed that progressives are re-segregating some areas of the country,
especially college campuses. But Minnesota has never been segregated, so our progressives are boldly venturing to
segregate our citizens by race for the first time. [...] But the project is risible in other ways. [#1] Why is the City
of Minneapolis (incorporated 1867) commemorating the 400th anniversary of "African people being brought to Jamestown, VA"? Is
there some relevance here that escapes me? [...] [#2] The City's assertion that Africans were "forced into slavery" upon their
arrival in Virginia is false. They were enslaved in Africa; sub-Saharan Africa had a slave economy at that time and for
centuries after. As of 1619, slaves had been an important commercial commodity in much of Europe, Africa and the Middle East
for 2,000 years. But slaves have never been bought or sold in the State of Minnesota. [#3] Meanwhile,
most Africans have come to the United States voluntarily as immigrants, not as slaves.
Stacey Abrams: the Female
Al Sharpton. You cannot run for President without first getting the blessing of the Female Al Sharpton, Stacey
"Rerun" Abrams. And they're all playing along — just like they do with the real Al Sharpton. Is there
a single Democrat candidate who hasn't taken the pilgrimage to Georgia to prostrate him or herself before the Female Al Sharpton?
If
Democrat Voters Demand Delusion, Only Delusional Candidates Can Win. On Sunday [6/2/2019], CNN held town hall
specials with a trio of presidential candidates — Seth Moulton, Eric Swalwell and Tim Ryan. We watched it so
you wouldn't have to. All three of them are Democratic members of Congress. None is in danger of becoming
president anytime soon. So why do we pay attention to what they say? Well, because as they stammer and sweat and
pander profusely, they give us a good idea of what the Democratic primary voters believe and what they care about. And
of course, the thing they care about most — a thing they can't stop talking about ever — is race.
They are obsessed in a deeply unhealthy way. Racial obsessions are always deeply unhealthy.
A
tantrum over Tubman: Shaheen steamed over Jacksons. New Hampshire's Sen. Jeanne Shaheen is among
those incensed that Donald Trump has spiked plans to put Harriet Tubman's likeness on the U.S. $20 bill. It would be in
place of President Andrew Jackson who, like Shaheen, was a Democrat. Trump has said that the Tubman effort is just
"pure political correctness." Sort of like the political correctness Shaheen's party has been engaged in recently to
rename events (such as Jefferson-Jackson Day fundraisers) because those Democrats were slave owners.
The Editor says...
President Trump is systematically undoing the legacy of Barack H. Obama. Putting Harriet Tubman on a $20 bill,
in place of a U.S. President, was part of Obama's destruction of American traditions. Objections to Mr. Trumps'
move are likely motivated by race-based political opportunism.
Democrats
2020: The Grievance Party. Describing the Democratic Party as one built on "identity politics" used to be a
pejorative. But Georgia's failed 2018 Democratic gubernatorial candidate, Stacey Abrams, recently defended this
description of her party. "I would argue that identity politics is exactly who we are," said Abrams, "and it's exactly
how we won. ... When we refuse to engage in the conversation of identity politics, when we refuse to acknowledge that we see
you and we understand you and we understand the barriers that you face, then what we are met with is a lack of trust."
Fellow Democrat and presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg apparently failed to get the memo. A week before Abrams
embraced and even expressed pride in Democrats' identity politics, Buttigieg was blasting President Donald Trump for his
"racist" use of it.
Why
is Al Sharpton, inciter of Crown Heights, speaking at a Jewish conference in Washington? The disgraceful
decision by the Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism to have Al Sharpton speak this morning at a plenary session of its
conference in Washington, D.C., (titled "Consultation on Conscience") sends a very dangerous and intolerable message to the
anti-Semites among us. Anti-Semitism is on the rise, not just in the form of shouts or graffiti but also the murder of
Jews. It is thus incomprehensible how the Religious Action Center could have ever made this decision.
Anti-Semites R'us.
Rashida and her homies are complaining about people taking her words out of context and using them to stoke racial hatred for
political reasons. To be clear, that technique is only acceptable when applied to a President you don't like.
The
Left's Obsession with Race. There was a time when people aspired to a world where race was an afterthought. It
was always a tough slog, but we'd moved closer and closer over time. Then something funny happened — a political
party realized they could benefit from division and that unity was bad for business. Unity would require a debate on issues
and their merits, which was one they had been losing, so they opted for backsliding; divide to conquer. If you divide people
into groups it is much easier to win. Groups of people are easier to manipulate than millions of individuals. It is
easier to win especially when you've been inundating them with the idea that there are "others" actively working against them
as well as a system completely rigged to crush them. These ideas coupled with the elevation and fetishization of
victimhood in the culture and you've created the perfect petri dish for the progressive agenda.
Joe
Biden: 'Jim Crow Is Sneaking Back' Under 'Clown' Donald Trump. Former Vice President Joe Biden took shots at
President Donald Trump on Saturday, calling him a "clown" who was allowing "Jim Crow" racism to return to the United
States. Biden kicked off his rally in Columbia, South Carolina with a string of warnings about racism and hatred rising
under Trump's presidency, in an effort to win support from African-Americans Democrats in the state.
Biden
blasts Donald Trump for allowing 'Jim Crow to sneak back in' by attempting to introduce tougher voting laws.
Former Vice President Joe Biden charged Saturday that Jim Crow is 'sneaking back in' as he emphasized the need to ensure
voting rights are protected, which he said is lacking under the Trump administration. Biden drew several hundred people
to a community center in Columbia as he opened his presidential campaign in South Carolina, home of the first-in-the-South
primary and where black voters play a major role in the Democratic nominating process.
On
Reparations: Part I. Do you think there should be white privilege tax? If there was one, who should
get the money? When Fox News asked these questions in man-on-the-street interviews awhile back most of us thought it
was a joke. Including Fox. Times have changed. These days it looks like you can't be a serious contender
for the Democratic nomination for president without endorsing reparations for slavery.
Two
days after synagogue shooting, Buttigieg kisses anti-Semite Al Sharpton's ring. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi,
D-Calif., boasted this month that there is "no taint" of anti-Semitism in the Democratic Party. She may want to tell
that to her colleagues, especially the 2020 presidential candidates, many of whom continue to kiss the ring worn by noted
race hustler and anti-Semite, Al Sharpton. On Monday [4/29/2019], just two days after a gunman opened fire at a San
Diego synagogue, killing one and injuring three others, South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg dined with Sharpton in New
York. The two spoke at length about the upcoming presidential election and homophobia in churches and faith-based
communities.
'Racism and sexism':
Women of color slam white male tilt of Dem primary. The women of color who packed into a university auditorium
here Wednesday for a first-of-its-kind presidential forum delighted in the rhetoric of candidates who vowed to make Donald
Trump a one-term president. But their frustration was just as palpable — over the heavy media attention
being paid to white male candidates in the early days of the Democratic primary, and over polling they contended is feeding a
misleading narrative that only a white man can defeat Trump.
Sanders
Faces Skeptical Audience at Forum for Minority Women. Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders faced a skeptical audience
of minority women in Texas Wednesday, a group that will be critical in deciding the Democratic presidential nominee from a
racially diverse field of candidates and a record number of women. Pressed by multiple questioners to address why women
of color should support him, Sanders leaned heavily on his economic message, drawing audible expressions of frustration from
some of the more than 1,500 people attending the She the People forum in Houston.
Women
of color frustrated with white males in Democratic primary. Women of color at the She the People presidential forum say
they're frustrated with the attention given to Democratic primary front-runners, former Vice President Joe Biden and Sen. Bernie
Sanders of Vermont, and other white males. She the People co-founder Aimee Allison said Wednesday [4/24/2019] she's also frustrated
with polling numbers that indicate Biden and Sanders are in the lead in the Democratic primary, and said it's up in the air whether
Biden will attract support from women of color. "He's going to enter a really different world," Allison told Politico.
"It's a world in which we've woken up as women of color and we're not just going along to get along for a Democratic Party insider."
Bernie
Sanders discovered yesterday that a white male nominee is a problem for a huge chunk of the Democrats' base. Assembling
a collection of grievance-based identity groups works well for the Democrats, until it doesn't. And with President Trump driving
a substantial number of Democrats into clinical derangement, the angry, angry ethno-sexual-economic group partisans are fed up
with waiting for their turn. Bernie's own partisans feel, with considerable justification, that they were robbed of the nomination
in 2016, and with Bernie turning 79 years old by Election Day, they can't wait for another election cycle to receive their vision of
"justice." But the problem is that other angry Democrat constituent groups have had their fill of white males stepping into positions
of power. Do you think black voters will turn out at a higher rate than whites and vote above 90% for the Democrat if an elderly
Jewish-heritage guy is on the ticket instead of an African-American?
Fury
at Crown Heights school's plan to bestow Rev. Al Sharpton with honorary doctorate. Rev. Al Sharpton,
a master of agitation, could soon be a doctor of humane letters. Taxpayer-funded Medgar Evers College, a CUNY school in
the middle of Crown Heights, is planning to bestow the honorary doctorate on the man many say inflamed tensions during the
bloody 1991 race riots in the Brooklyn neighborhood. The college, in a resolution to go before a committee Monday, says
it wants to recognize Sharpton's "unwavering commitment to racial, educational and socioeconomic equity" at its June 5
commencement.
Southern
"Poverty" in the Cayman Islands. Yesterday [4/2/2019], Senator Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas) issued a letter to the
Commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service, Charles Rettig, urging an investigation into whether the Southern Poverty Law
Center (SPLC) should retain its classification as a 501(c)(3). Senator Cotton is requesting an investigation into the
tax-exempt status of the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) based on numerous examples of the SPLC engaging in systematic
defamation of their political opponents.
Twitter Backs Off Partnership
With SPLC Amid Bombshell Reports. Amazon Stays Silent. Twitter appears to be one of the only big tech
companies to back out of an alliance with the Southern Poverty Law Center after the group's long-time president was fired for
unspecified conduct reasons, The Daily Caller News Foundation has learned. "The SPLC is not a member of Twitter's Trust
and Safety Council or a partner the company has worked with recently," a source within the company told TheDCNF. The person
spoke on the condition of anonymity and did not disclose when Twitter distanced itself from the SPLC, which was dealt a
significant blow in March following reports suggesting the group scams people out of money.
Rev.
Al Sharpton is a former paid FBI informant: report. An explosive new report by The Smoking Gun claims that the
Rev. Al Sharpton is a former paid FBI informant. The report published Monday claims that Mr. Sharpton
regularly interacted with members of four of New York City's five organized crime families, specifically leaders of the
Genovese family, and he secretly recorded their conversations. After the news came to light, Mr. Sharpton admitted
helping law enforcement officials by keeping tabs on Mafia contacts in the 1980s.
Estupida-Cortez
Panders to Blacks with Phony Accent. Why do Democrats insult Black Americans by attempting to pander to them
with phony accents? When speaking to Black audiences, they use an obviously fake and contrived accent to mimic the way
they believe Black Americans talk. I find it offensive and disgusting, and I'm not even Black! Hillary Clinton
did it. Barack Obama did it. Now, Alexandria Estupida-Cortez wants in on the action. [Video clip]
Citizens
for Corporate Accountability Demands Amazon Cuts Ties with SPLC. In a recent letter to Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos
and the company's Senior Vice President of Global Corporate Affairs, Jay Carney, Citizens for Corporate Accountability (CCA)
requested that the e-commerce giant cease its work with the SPLC. The CCA specifically took issue with how the SPLC
designates certain organizations as "hate groups" and how this has affected the Amazon Smile program which allows Amazon
shoppers to donate money to particular charities.
Democrats are afraid to [anger] Al Sharpton.
How is Al Sharpton — the Jussie Smollett of civil rights — still a kingmaker? This week, nearly
every single Democratic candidate for president — save the otherwise-distracted Joe Biden — has or will
appear at Sharpton's annual convention for his National Action Network, which he calls a charity. A more rational
observer might call it a personal piggybank funded by shakedowns. This is a man who, as The [New York] Post exclusively
reported in December, sold the rights to his life story to his own "nonprofit," paying himself $531,000 — on top
of his $244,661 salary to run NAN in 2017. When asked by The Post when he would see that half-million, Sharpton —
who was covering the 100th anniversary of Nelson Mandela's birth in South Africa for MSNBC, itself a sacrilege —
took offense. "What does that have to do with anything?" he asked.
Why
Should the Partisan SPLC be Tax-Exempt? That is the question that Senator Tom Cotton asked today in a letter to
the IRS. The Southern Poverty Law Center is an arm of the Democratic Party whose stock in trade is defamation. What
tax-exempt purposes do baseless, politically-motivated smears serve?
Sen.
Cotton Seeks IRS Investigation Into SPLC's Tax-Exempt Status. Sen. Tom Cotton (R., Ark.) is seeking an
investigation into the tax-exempt status of the left-wing Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), according to a letter provided
to the Washington Free Beacon. Cotton sent the letter to the IRS April 2 and urges an investigation into whether
the SPLC "should retain its classification as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization" amid news reports that have verified the
"long-established fact that the SPLC regularly engages in defamation of its political opponents."
Jesse
Jackson: 'Outrage' over Jussie Smollett 'Is Fake News'. Rev. Jesse Jackson on Friday [3/29/2019] released
a statement branding the "outrage" surrounding Jussie Smollett as "fake news" and called on people still angered by
allegations that the Empire actor staged a hate crime against himself to move on from the scandal. "The outrage over
the Jussie Smollett case is misplaced and out of proportion," said Jackson. "It is being used from City Hall to the
White House to deflect and distract from City Hall to the White House. It is fake news."
Jesse
Jackson, others plan rally for Kim Foxx after criticism in handling of Jussie Smollett case. The Rev. Jesse Jackson
and other clergy are planning a rally in support of Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx, who's faced criticism since her office
dropped charges against actor Jussie Smollett.
Jesse
Jackson weighs in on Jussie Smollett. Jesse Jackson is crying "fake news" over the outrage prompted by the
Jussie Smollett case which he believes is "misplaced and out of proportion." The reverend made his appeal for people to
move on from the scandal involving the "Empire" actor accused of staging a hate crime against himself, addressing the issue
in a statement released on Friday [3/29/2019] demanding an end to the "politically motivated" attacks on Cook County State's
Attorney Kim Foxx.
The
Southern Poverty Law Center is Everything That's Wrong With Liberalism. The Southern Poverty Law Center, the
wealthiest civil rights organization in the country, has ousted its founder, Morris Dees, and president, Richard Cohen, amid
unspecified allegations of workplace misconduct by Dees. Dees had been with the organization since creating it in 1971,
while Cohen had joined in the mid-'80s, and the SPLC's shake-up can be seen as part of the MeToo reckoning in which conduct
that was accepted for years is finally being dealt with appropriately. But the organization has long been dysfunctional
in even deeper ways, and the story of Dees and the SPLC is useful for illustrating some of the worst and most hypocritical
tendencies in American liberalism. If we understand the full extent of what went wrong in this organization, we'll
better understand the ways in which a shallow "politics of spectacle" can take hold, and see the kinds of practices that need
to be categorically rejected in the pursuit of progressive change.
The
Southern Poverty Law Center Is in a State of Moral Collapse. For those who cared about truth, the SPLC's
transformation from a valuable anti-Klan watchdog into a glorified version of Media Matters for America was plain and
obvious. It steadily expanded its definition of "hate groups" to include mainstream Christian organizations such as my
former employer, the Alliance Defending Freedom, and it labeled as "extremists" men such as American Enterprise Institute
scholar Charles Murray. These decisions had serious real-world consequences. Corporations and employers cut off
relationships with groups and individuals targeted by the SPLC, and violent people used SPLC designations to justify
attempted murder and assault. Remember the man who tried to commit mass murder at the Family Research Council? He
found his target through the SPLC's list of alleged "anti-gay groups." Remember when an angry mob attacked Murray at
Middlebury College and injured a professor? Because of the SPLC, those protesters thought they were attacking a "white
nationalist."
Trouble At The Poverty Palace.
The Southern Poverty Law Center is misnamed for the following reasons: [#1] Southern: Despite the fact that its
headquarters are located in Alabama, it is aggressively anti-Southern by dint of the fact that it views Southern history as one
giant stain against all things good; [#2] Poverty: Its endowment is close to a half-billion dollars, dwarfing
that of the NRA and even the ACLU; [#3] Law: It is very selective in what laws it deems worthy of defending: For
example, it equates the enforcement of current immigration laws with "hate." Despite its relentless posturing as an
anti-"hate" organization, it seems propelled by a cancerous hatred toward all things white and male.
For Such a Time as This.
Marianne Williamson was in the pulpit at Bethel A.M.E. Church Sunday morning [3/24/2019], [...] However, the woman in the
pulpit, who has been called Oprah Winfrey's "spiritual guru," had not come to the South Carolina lowlands as an author
promoting her books, but rather as a candidate for the Democratic Party's 2020 presidential nomination.

The
Southern Poverty Law Center is a 'scam'. The Southern Poverty Law Center's problems go well beyond the fact
it's a vicious, left-wing attack dog with no care whatsoever for the reputational and personal harm it causes by lumping
Christians and anti-extremist activists with actual neo-Nazis. As it turns out, the SPLC is a cynical money-making
scheme, according to a former staffer's blistering tell-all, published this week in the New Yorker. The center's chief
goal is to bilk naive and wealthy donors who believe it's an earnest effort to combat bigotry. The only thing worse
than a snarling partisan activist is a slimy conman who merely pretends to be one.
SPLC
looks like a sinking ship with two more high-level departures. The news that Morris Dees was kicked out of the
organization he founded, the Southern Poverty Law Center, sent shockwaves out among leftists, including the many news outlets
that accept without question its verdicts that conservatives are "hate groups." Major donors, like Google, were put on
notice that they may have been misguided. It turns out that those shockwaves have toppled more careers of big shots at
the SPLC.
The
Reckoning of Morris Dees and the Southern Poverty Law Center. [Scroll down] In the decade or so before
I'd arrived, the [SPLC]'s reputation as a beacon of justice had taken some hits from reporters who'd peered behind the
façade. In 1995, the Montgomery Advertiser had been a Pulitzer finalist for a series that documented, among
other things, staffers' allegations of racial discrimination within the organization. In Harper's, Ken
Silverstein had revealed that the center had accumulated an endowment topping a hundred and twenty million dollars while
paying lavish salaries to its highest-ranking staffers and spending far less than most nonprofit groups on the work that it
claimed to do. The great Southern journalist John Egerton, writing for The Progressive, had painted a damning
portrait of Dees, the center's longtime mastermind, as a "super-salesman and master fundraiser" who viewed civil-rights work
mainly as a marketing tool for bilking gullible Northern liberals.
Whatta Bunch of Phony Baloneys.
Not long ago, these pages carried my more extended column devoted to the Democrats' falsehoods in identifying their ultimate
Sugar Daddy, Tom $teyer, as a Jew. Every time a Republican attacks $teyer for trying to buy elections with
multi-million-dollar contributions, the Democrats and Left Media come back and yell "Anti-Semitism!" Even $teyer
makes the claim. But he is no Jew. Tom $teyer is an Episcopalian. Interestingly, when the real
anti-Semites like Jew-haters Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar attack Jews the Left Media are silent.
If
there is any justice, the firing of its founder should to launch the collapse and liquidation of the Southern Poverty Law
Center. Few private organizations can match the Southern Poverty Law Center when it comes to hypocrisy and
malign influence, though Media Matters for America might be close. In a development shocking only to its leftist true
believers, the founder and most prominent public face of the group, Morris Dees, was fired for unspecified reasons.
Southern
Poverty Law Center fires co-founder Morris Dees. Southern Poverty Law Center President co-founder Morris Dees
was fired Wednesday, according to SPLC President Richard Cohen. Cohen said in a statement Dees' dismissal over his
misconduct was effective on Wednesday, March 13. When pressed for details on what led to the termination, the organization
declined to elaborate. Dees, along with Joseph Levin Jr., founded the nonprofit legal advocacy group in 1971 "to ensure
that the promise of the civil rights movement became a reality for all."
Hillary
Clinton's Fake Southern Accent Returns, 'When That Spirit is Breathed Into Them!' Hillary Clinton's fake
southern accent is back and it's worse than ever. On Sunday [3/3/2019] twice-failed presidential hopeful Hillary
Clinton spoke at a historic black church in Selma, Alabama for an anniversary event of the 1965 "Bloody Sunday" march from
Selma to Montgomery. Hillary invoked her fake accent as she told the crowd at Brown Chapel, "Oh, this is the day the
Lord has made! Let us rejoice and be glad in it! Oh!"
Hillary
Clinton says country is in 'full-fledged crisis' during speech in Selma to mark 'Bloody Sunday'. Former
Secretary of State and presidential candidate Hillary Clinton offered a stark view of the country on Sunday, comparing the
current "crisis in our democracy" to the turbulence that occurred amid the Civil Rights movement of the 1960s. Speaking
during a reception in Selma, Ala. to mark the 54th anniversary of "Bloody Sunday" and to receive the International Unity
Award at the Martin Luther King and Coretta Scott King Unity Breakfast, Clinton said that the United States is facing a
"full-fledged crisis in our democracy."
Pigs on Two
Legs Turn on Each Other. Among leftists, Kamala Harris, as black and female, trumps Cory Booker who is just
black, who trumps Elizabeth Warren who is exposed as just female, who trumps Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders who are reverse
threefers as white, male, and heterosexual. None of the progressive revolutionaries ever stopped to ponder whether much
of the country targeted by the new racialism might not like it and mirror image this sad descent into tribalism. In
such a revolutionary scramble to be the most diverse and hard left, the logical trajectory ends up with a race to transcend
the physical limits of victimhood.
Mark
Meadows Hurls Racism Charge Back at Radical Rep. Rashida Tlaib for Accusing Female Black Trump Employee of Being a
Prop. Radical Democrat Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) accused Lynne Patton of being a racist prop for
Republican Mark Meadows during the Michael Cohen hearings. Earlier in the day Rep. Meadows introduced Trump
employee Lynne Patton during his time questioning the witness. Ms. Patton years ago by the Trump family.
Patton is a black woman and staunch supporter of President Trump.
Al
Sharpton says Jussie Smollett should 'face accountability to the maximum' if attack was orchestrated. When
"Empire" actor Jussie Smollett said he was attacked by two masked men yelling racist and homophobic epithets, as well as
"This is MAGA country," MSNBC host Al Sharpton came out in support of the star. "We can't make people love each other,
but we can sure hold them accountable if they harm each other," Sharpton said at the end of his "Final Thoughts" segment
headlined, "We're with you Jussie." But amid multiple reports this weekend that Smollett may have been involved in
orchestrating the attack, Sharpton, who made his name in the 1980s as the spokesperson for Tawana Brawley in what turned out
to be false claims she was raped by four white men, changed his tune on-air on Sunday.
Jussie
Smollett: A Case Study in Modern Liberalism. The noose thing was a clever touch. As my observant
young colleague, Matt Miano, pointed out to me, Smollett was photographed approximately a year prior to his "noose attack"
alongside Sen. Kamala Harris at a protest in Los Angeles. Kamala Harris sponsored an "anti-lynching bill" in the
Senate in late 2018 to make lynching a new federal crime. The bill had always previously stalled in the Senate, because
it was seen as an unnecessary political gimmick, meant to remind people of historical black oppression in the South.
Murdering people with a rope has always been a crime under state law. In the wake of Smollett's faked "noose assault"
in Chicago on Jan. 29, Harris's anti-lynching bill unanimously passed the Senate on Feb. 14. Imagine that!
And who was one of the first Democratic luminaries to jump in with outrage and sympathy for poor Jussie Smollett following the
alleged assault by the evil MAGA headdress-sporting bleach purveyors? You guessed it. Senator Kamala Harris.
New Attorney
General Needs To Clean House. The liberal direction of the DOJ is nothing new. In the Obama
administration, then Attorney General Eric Holder was a liberal activist instead of the nation's top law enforcement
officer. Holder infamously labeled America "a nation of cowards" for not having the courage to discuss race
relations. Thereafter, he spent his entire tenure obsessively focused on race. It was certainly a questionable
decision when his department decided not to prosecute members of the Black Panthers who were threatening voters and armed
with a weapon at a precinct in Philadelphia. He made sure that no investigations ever touched President Obama, since he
promised to be his "wing man."
Why
The Left Can't Tell Honest Working Class Dirt From Blackface. Once upon a time, the Left romanticized coal dust
and the coal miner as symbols of the oppressed working class. Then it degenerated into a movement of university bred
urbanites with contempt for hard work and a calculated ignorance of the "brown energy" that makes their lives possible.
The disdain and ignorance reached a fever pitch with two media articles conflating coal dust with blackface. The
Arizona Republic ran an editorial by Rashaad Thomas, a self-described poet, essayist and Buddhist thinker, who was
offended by a photo of Welsh coal miners hanging in a restaurant. "Phoenix restaurant says this is a photo of coal
miners. But I see offensive blackface," Thomas complained. "My concern that the photograph of men in blackface
was a threat to me and my face and voice were ignored. A business' photograph of men with blackened faces culturally
says to me, 'Whites Only.' It says people like me are not welcome."
Without
Elitist Racialism, There Is Little Racism. Because race relations have changed so quickly in America over the
last few decades, racism is far less a problem in this country than racialism. A racialist is a person who looks at all
society through the prism of race, the way Marx attributed all social phenomena as somehow determined by economic class
relationships. The racialist sees "dog whistles" everywhere, ever so subtle evidences that racism continues to exist in
the subterranean recesses of people's psyche that even the accused "racists" are not aware of. Down here the ordinary
people on the streets are neither racists nor racialists. Racialism is essentially a political phenomenon and so is
largely confined to the political/media elites and to those who have been indoctrinated with this idea at our universities.
4
Ways Democrats Want to Ruin Your Life. The Democrats (the governor and attorney general in Va.) are guilty of racist
acts in the past. Another Democrat senator attempted to align herself with American Indians for her own benefit. This
from the party that accuses Republicans daily of racism. Furthermore, the Democrats, who give lip service to Dr. Martin
Luther King, Jr., who once said, "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will
not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character," boast about their candidates' race, sex, and
sexual orientation with little said about character.
Virginia:
When Identity Groups Collide. For decades, lacking a coherent and acceptable broad-based platform, the
Democrats have cobbled together their victories by playing the identity politics game. Reaching out to different
groups, playing on their sense of victimization and oppression, dissolving the very bonds of civic cohesion, and pretending
to a savior role for each group. Of course, if people thought about it, no one is less oppressed than a modern-day
American, and the special interests and pleadings of these disparate groups often collide and conflict, but that seemingly
passes beyond their ken or notice. This week, in contrast to the unifying State of the Union address by the President
which was coherent, consistent, and uplifting, the three top officials in Virginia — all Democrats —
are engaged in a bloody battle which looks to disunite the Democratic women from the black voters of the state.
Southern
Poverty Law Center sued by Proud Boys founder Gavin McInnes. Proud Boys founder Gavin McInnes rejects the
notion he's a hate-monger, and he's going after an organization that believes he fits the description. McInnes has
filed a defamation lawsuit against the Southern Poverty Law Center, which has designated the Proud Boys as a hate
group. The suit claims the label has cost McInnes business opportunities and access to media platforms. In
October, Facebook and Instagram banned the Proud Boys and McInnes, citing their policies against hate groups.
Breaking
News: 72-Year-Old Man Edited Racist Yearbook 50 Years Ago. If you said racist things in 2012 and you're
applying for a job now, maybe that should be held against you. But if you're a 72-year-old man and you edited a racist
yearbook in 1968, maybe everyone should move on. But here's the latest breaking news from Virginia. ["]A Virginia
Military Institute yearbook overseen by future state Senate Majority Leader Tommy Norment in 1968 features a host of racist
photos and slurs, including blackface.["] In 1968. 50 years ago. The media is denouncing a 72-year-old man
for something he may have participated in when he was 22 years old. I'm not playing favorites here. This story was
stupid when it involved Governor Northam. Somehow Northam's public support for infanticide is not disqualifying, but his
wearing of blackface 34 years ago is.
Woke
Evangelicals: Cultivating Victimhood, Vanquishing Conscience. With astonishing speed, the evangelical
world has been invaded by social justice ideology. In a recent podcast, the current president of the Southern Baptist
Convention (until now a theologically conservative body), J.D. Greear, highlighted "white privilege" as a serious moral issue
for Christians. Likewise, David Platt, former president of the SBC's International Mission Board, browbeat evangelicals
for having too much of the same skin color: "Why are so many of our churches so white?" At another historically
conservative denomination, the Presbyterian Church of America, things are not any better. Its institution and my own
alma mater, Covenant Seminary, hosted a conference on race whose onetime director was a Black Lives Matter activist.
Furthermore, the seminary and the PCA denomination as a whole have been embroiled in controversy over the Revoice Conference,
which promotes the idea of LGBT victimhood.
Beclowning
themselves to "get" Trump. [Michael] Harriot works for a publication that specializes in black supremacist
articles. Oh, nobody says that because in our double standard world it is OK for minorities to have their little clans
with their clan leaders. The Congressional Black Caucus and the Congressional Hispanic Caucus are two examples.
After all, what good are black leaders if no one obsesses with being black. Civil rights activists do not seek civil
rights because when they achieve that there is no need for them.
New
Congresswoman Omar sides with black hate group that sparked the Covington controversy. A fringe religious
zealot who calls himself "Chief Ephraim Israel" of the House of Israel, is claiming he was the person most responsible for
the controversial incident between a group of Catholic high school boys and a Native American activist. "The word of
G od — it sparked it all," the man told the New York Post. With the media whipping the nation into a frenzy
over the alleged disrespectful and racist actions of the students, never mind that most got the story completely wrong, a
se parate incident involving a group of black men, who identify as Hebrew Israelites, got little attention. Video would
slowly surface of the religious fanatics taunting both the students from Covington Catholic High School and the participants
of a nearby Indigenous Peoples Rally with disparaging and vulgar language.
Kamala
Harris's Identity Ticket. Now that first-term Senator Kamala Harris has formally announced for the presidency
in 2020, she has to be considered the odds-on favorite to win the Democrat nomination. This stems not from anything in
Harris's relatively slight résumé, other than her "identity" and a hard-left stand on most issues. Harris
checks almost all the critical boxes. Barring a particularly toxic skeleton in the closet or a major campaign error,
she will likely end up President Trump's opponent in 2020. Harris identifies as both an African-American (her father is
Jamaican) and Indian-American (her mother hails from the subcontinent.) Being half Native American and gay would be a bit
better, but among the current crop of possible Democrat candidates, none identify better as far as Democrats are concerned.
Fuller
picture emerges of viral video encounter between Native American and Catholic students. Marcus Frejo, an
indigenous hip-hop artist who is also known as Quese Imc, said he was standing with a friend near the black men when tensions
flickered. He said he was worried "something ugly" was going to happen. Around that time, he said, Phillips
approached, asking to borrow a drum. Together, they headed into the center of the students, creating a sort of prayer
circle. They sang what he said was a well-known spiritual song associated with the American Indian Movement of the
1960s and used for prayer and resistance. In separate interviews, Frejo and Phillips said they heard the students
making noises that seemed to mock Native American chanting. But Frejo also said he heard some of the students sing along.

Bernie
Sanders calls President Trump a racist on Martin Luther King Day. Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders had a dream
of stopping "racist" President Trump's vision to "Make America Great Again." "Today we say to Donald Trump —
We are not going back to more bigotry, discrimination and division," Sanders told a South Carolina audience at an event marking
Martin Luther King Day. "Instead of bringing us together as Americans, he has purposely and aggressively attempted to
divide us up by the color of our skin, by our gender, by our nationality, by our religion and by our sexual orientation."
The Editor says...
Nobody works harder to categorize and segregate Americans into easily-manageable groups and factions than the Democrats.
Biden
says Trump has 'awakened hate' and legitimized a resurgence of racism in America. In what could be a preview of
campaign themes, former Vice President Joe Biden ripped the current occupant of the White House Monday for legitimizing a
resurgence of racism in America. Without mentioning President Donald Trump by name, Biden told a crowd of civil rights
activists and civic leaders at Al Sharpton's breakfast honoring Martin Luther King Jr., that it was all too easy for some of
America's ugliest sentiments on race to reemerge.
Hawaii
Democrat Ed Case claims he's 'an Asian trapped in a white body'. Rep. Ed Case apologized Wednesday [1/16/2019] after
he claimed at an event for Asian American and Pacific Islander voters that he's an "Asian trapped in a white body." Mr. Case,
a Hawaii Democrat, sparked a social media backlash over the reported comment he made Tuesday at a Washington event billed as a
"celebration of Asian American and Pacific Islander members of the 116th Congress."
Let the bidding begin!
Sharpton
Heavily Courted by 2020 Democrats, Will Hold Off Endorsement for a Year. Al Sharpton is being heavily courted
by Democrats seeking his endorsement as they pursue the 2020 presidential nomination, but he said he won't make a decision on
who he'll support for at least a year. The liberal civil rights activist and MSNBC host has met with a flurry of
possible 2020 contenders in recent weeks, including Sens. Kamala Harris (D., Calif.), Cory Booker (D., N.J.), and
Kirsten Gillibrand (D., N.Y.), and he's planning to speak soon with former Rep. Beto O'Rourke (D., Texas), the
Atlantic reported. Sharpton has become a mainstream figure in the Democratic Party, in sharp contrast to his
early days as a fiery, jumpsuit-wearing racial antagonist, known for his invective against Jews and the police.
To some people, facts matter less than the color of the person reporting them.
AOC
Says Lack of Media Diversity 'Unacceptable in 2019'. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was embroiled in a
Twitter spat this weekend after criticizing CBS News for an apparent lack of black journalists covering the 2020
election. The democrat, who represents New York's 14th congressional district, spoke out yesterday in response to a
tweet from CBS producer Ben Mitchell which announced the team covering the upcoming election. In the Friday [1/11/2019]
post, Mitchell published the headshots of the staffers.
Al
Sharpton, Jesse Jackson Visit Ocasio-Cortez to Combat Trump's 'Anti-Civil Rights Agenda'. Jesse Jackson and Al
Sharpton visited Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) this week, with Sharpton saying that he and Ocasio-Cortez
discussed how to "fight back against the disastrous anti-civil rights agenda enacted by the Trump administration."
Sharpton went to Ocasio-Cortez's office on Thursday [1/10/2019] and effusively tweeted about his visit, even sharing a video
of the two of them dancing. [...] Jackson met with Ocasio-Cortez on Wednesday, and the freshman New York Democrat said "it
was an honor of a lifetime" to meet with Jackson and discuss how they could "advance the movement for economic and racial
justice in the United States."
Black
Lawmakers' Charity Didn't Give Out A Single Scholarship, Top Pols Hide Financials. The caucus of black New York
state lawmakers runs a charity whose stated mission is to empower "African American and Latino youth through education and
leadership initiatives" by "providing opportunity to higher education" — but it hasn't given a single scholarship
to needy youth in two years, according to a New York Post investigation. The group collects money from companies like
AT&T, the Real Estate Board of New York, Time Warner Cable and CableVision, telling them in promotional materials that they
are "changing lives, one scholarship at a time." The group — called the Association of Black and Puerto Rican
Legislators, Inc. — instead spent $500,000 in the 2015 — 2016 fiscal year on items like food,
limousines and rap music, the Post found.
The Editor says...
Imagine the reaction in the news media if someone set up a scholarship fund strictly for lily-white students. But a
scholarship fund for everybody-but-whites is okay.
Congresswoman
Hopes Reparations Bill is Path to 'Repair Some of the Damage' Caused by Slavery. Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee
(D-Texas) told PJM that the federal government should conduct a study of reparations for descendants of slaves to be able to
determine the best way to "repair some of the damage" that slavery has caused to the African-American community.
Jackson Lee became the lead sponsor of H.R. 40, the Commission to Study and Develop Reparation Proposals for
African-Americans Act, after Rep. John Conyers (D-Mich.) resigned from Congress.
Why
won't the AG even look into Al Sharpton's latest dubious deal? Why isn't state Attorney General Barbara Underwood looking
into that bizarre $531,000 payment to the Rev. Al Sharpton by his own nonprofit for his "life story"? Tax and film-industry
experts contacted by The [New York] Post all raised their eyebrows after learning the details. And Sharpton's long history of dubious
fiscal management and hefty tax liens — not to mention two mysterious fires that conveniently consumed his financial
records — doesn't exactly inspire confidence that all this is on the up and up.
Al
Sharpton's daughter gets $95K settlement for sprained ankle. Dominique Sharpton, daughter of shakedown artist
Al Sharpton, scored a $95,000 settlement from the city over a sprained ankle — even though she had posted snaps of
herself on social media climbing a mountain in Bali and strutting around in high heels just seven months after the
fall. It took nearly four years, but de Blasio administration lawyers finally threw in the towel in the case.
MSNBC: White
People Can't Save America. [Scroll down] No politician panders to whites as a whole to win
elections. Such a politician would quickly be deemed a racist. Political pandering has rules. Pander only
to blacks, and you must be a Democrat to do so. When politicians occasionally pander to whites, they do so to small
groups of whites. Like working-class white males, and so on. The rule is clear: pander only to small groups of
whites. Again, only Democrats can get permits to do so. Note that you will never see politicians going to white
churches to pander for the white vote, as politicians do with blacks. Hillary Clinton famously quoted Reverend James
Cleveland's "No ways tired" speech when pandering to blacks. Politicians go to black churches to secure the black vote,
then break all the promises. They visit white churches for the "evangelical" vote, not the white vote, per se.
Al
Sharpton sells his life story rights for $531,000 — to his own charity. The Rev. Al Sharpton
has found an eager buyer for the rights to his life story — his own charity. The National Action Network
agreed to pay the activist preacher $531,000 for his "life story rights for a 10-year period," according to the non-profit's
latest tax filing, which was obtained by The [New York] Post. NAN can apparently turn around and sell those rights to
Hollywood or other takers at a profit, but neither the reverend nor the charity would identify what producers are waiting for
such Sharpton content.
Surprise!
Ilhan Omar lied to Jewish voters in her district. Newly elected Representative Ilhan Omar, the Somali-heritage
Muslim from Minneapolis who replaces Keith Ellison, has already reversed her position on the BDS (Boyott, Divest, Sanction)
Movement that seeks to delegitimize Israel now that she is safely elected. Since she has cited no reasons for changing
her mind, she must have been lying.
Progressive
Politics Are Not Really Progressive. Robert O'Rourke appropriates a Latino nickname and with it by implication
a false Latino identity — and all for the better, progressives say. A buffoonish Elizabeth Warren called
upon DNA tests to prove her less than 1 percent Native American ancestry apparently to show us that she did not culturally
appropriate Indian ancestry for careerist purposes. So cultural appropriation is little more than a one-way neurosis of
the upper-middle class and mostly university crowd.
The State of Hate. The SPLC was founded in
1971 to take on legal cases related to racial injustice, poverty and the death penalty. [...] Today the SPLC's list of 953
"Active Hate Groups" is an elaborate taxonomy of ill will. [...] For decades, the hate list was a golden seal of disapproval,
considered nonpartisan enough to be heeded by government agencies, police departments, corporations and journalists.
But in recent years, as the list has swept up an increasing number of conservative activists — mostly in the
anti-LGBT, anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim categories — those conservatives have been fighting back.
Democrats:
'If We Lost, the Voters Must Be Racist'. At issue is the defeat of Andrew Gillum in the Florida governor's race
and of Stacey Abrams in the Georgia governor's race. Democrats are busily trying to undo those defeats as of this
writing (Florida Democrats have a real knack for suddenly discovering caches of ballots from sympathetic voters at the
opportune moment) while simultaneously arguing that the reason these two candidates failed is that they are black, and that
Donald Trump's America is just one tweet away from repealing the 13th Amendment. Senator Bernie Sanders —
who abandoned his native Brooklyn for Vermont, the whitest state in the union — insists that white voters are
"uncomfortable" voting for a black candidate. Maybe some are. But Barack Obama won more than 100 more electoral
votes running against Mitt Romney than Hillary Clinton won running against a man who'd never run for office before. The
signals are at least mixed.
Gillum confident
'souls to the polls' will give Democrats the early-vote advantage. Andrew Gillum couldn't move. The
Democratic mayor of Tallahassee hoping to be Florida's next governor stepped off his bus in Miami into a throng of 300 sweaty
revelers ready for a "souls to the polls" march on the final day of early voting in South Florida. [...] Registered Democrats
entered the day trailing registered Republicans in early-vote totals by a slim 28,000 vote margin, and the last-minute push
by Gillum and Democrats across the state focused on black churches could give Democrats a tiny advantage in registration
totals heading into Election Day.
Donald
Trump: The Word 'Racist' is Used to Describe 'Every Republican That's Winning'. President Donald Trump
defied charges Thursday [11/1/2018] from Democrats and the establishment media that he was a racist for supporting tough measures
on immigration enforcement. "Well you know the word 'racist' is used about every Republican that's winning," Trump said in
an interview with Christian Broadcast Network. "Any time a Republican is leading they take out the 'R' word, the
'racist' word." Trump denied that he was anti-immigrant, asserting that the country needed them but that all immigrants
had to come into the country legally.
Missouri
Dem lashes out at McCaskill for 'crazy Democrats' comment, in profanity-laced tirade. Sen. Claire
McCaskill's, D-Mo., efforts to distance herself from "crazy Democrats" sparked a fiery backlash from a Missouri Democratic
state senator, who responded by calling her a [name] and nicknaming her "Dixie Claire." "Claire McCaskill is
desperate," state Sen. Maria Chappelle-Nadal tweeted. "[...] Instead of knowing why people of color are angered by
this administration, she chooses to put us and our families in harm's way. If my family is harmed, blame it on Claire
McCaskill. She deserves to lose. She is not a Democrat." Chappelle-Nadal's comments were first reported by
The Daily Caller.
Al
Sharpton's reaction to Trump hosting young black leaders in MAGA 'caps' is worth the price of admission.
Notorious race-baiter Rev. Al Sharpton believes that President Donald Trump's decision to allow Turning Points USA to
host its Young Black Leadership Summit at the White House this year is somehow, someway wrong and perhaps even blatantly
racist. "It's one of the lowest things he could ever do," Sharpton complained Friday evening on MSNBC. "To go in the
East Room, which is sacred, have a staged rally. Notice that all of those youngsters had caps on. It was almost
like we're going to dress you for the photo. And to call it a young black leader summit...."
The Editor says...
Mr. Sharpton's horrified reaction at the sight of young blacks happy to visit a Republican president in the White House is disturbing.
It is as if Mr. Sharpton believes that all blacks are somehow under the exclusive jurisdiction of the Democratic Party.
This is a good example of "reading too much into it."
Cow's
milk is a symbol of white supremacists, PETA claims. Cow's milk is allegedly a symbol used by white supremacists,
according to PETA. In a recent statement, the animal advocate organization explains that dairy milk has been the drink of
choice for supremacists because "the dairy industry inflicts extreme violence on other living beings."
The Editor says...
The most bigoted people I've ever known were not milk drinkers. I think they all had a preference for cheap beer.
Hillary
Clinton Nods in Agreement When She's Introduced as "The Real President". Hillary Clinton joined Eric Garner's
mother Gwen Carr for a book signing in Manhattan, New York Friday [10/19/2018]. Gwen Carr penned a book titled, "This
Stops Now" in her ongoing effort to pursue justice for her son, Eric Garner who died after a Staten Island police officer
held him in a choke hold. Back in 2014, Staten Island police officers attempted to arrest Eric Garner because he was
selling unlicensed cigarettes. Video shows Eric Garner resisting arrest; however, racism was blamed for his death.
Native
Americans, Liberal Writers Excoriate Warren's 'Indefensible' Native American Posturing. Like many conservatives, I've
been a critic of Sen. Elizabeth Warren for years. She's a hardcore statist and collectivist whose views on nearly every
major issues are, in my view, deeply wrong-headed. I've also been writing about her dubious-to-fraudulent "Native American"
gambit for quite some time, having featured the matter during an examination of the Left's obsession with "privilege" in my 2015 book,
End of Discussion. Warren is not a Native American, yet there's strong circumstantial evidence that she identified as
one for a very discrete period of time in order to advance her career. It is therefore unsurprising that I greeted her latest,
ludicrous endeavor to justify her so-called 'heritage' with scorn. So did many others who generally share my worldview.
What may be slightly more surprising is that a fair number of leftists are also heaping criticism upon her. Some are bemoaning
her tactics and timing (why now, a question I took a stab at in my previous post), but others are flaying her on substance, too.
Did
someone mention Elizabeth Warren?
Elizabeth
Warren and Beto O'Rourke, Cultural Appropriators. Elizabeth Warren wants to be Native American. Robert
Francis O'Rourke wants to be Latino. But they aren't. And they're being hoist on the left's own petard. I'm
a fan of cultural appropriation. I think it's actually healthy for the dominant society to incorporate some aspects of
other cultures. This makes us more diverse, more interesting, and more tolerant. But many on the left strongly
disagree with me on this. They hate themselves for loving yoga, and don't think two white women should be able to own a
burrito cart in Portland. They are adamant about it. This leads to what some might call cognitive dissonance, or
even hypocrisy. After all, the people most inclined to frequent yoga studios and burrito carts in the Pacific Northwest
are rich white liberals.
How the Leftist
Smear Machine Operates. In the course of a speech in Ohio, President Trump wandered into the Civil War and made
some remarks about the two principal generals, Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee. Five minutes ago, culturally
speaking, these would have been unexceptionable and unremarkable — hardly newsworthy. But in the new media-driven
Narrative context, they suddenly became a stick with which to beat Trump and (oddly enough) the Republicans. This is how the
Narrative — thanks, Saul Alinsky! — works. First, personalize the target: the soldiers of the
Confederacy and in particular Lee. Second, polarize any discussion of the war by dramatically simplifying its origins,
causes, aims, and outcomes under the all-purpose rubric of "racism." Finally, eliminate all references to the saddest
chapter in American history by tearing down their statues and sending Lee and his army down the memory hole and into purdah,
and tarring anyone who objects as a "racist."
What's
in a nickname? For some Latinos, Beto 'makes us feel like family'. Some have criticized U.S.
Rep. Beto O'Rourke — whose legal name is Robert Francis O'Rourke — for his Latino nickname.
But at his rally on [Fort Worth]'s north side Friday evening [10/12/2018], voters were far from turned off.
Don
Lemon mocks 'minstrel' Kanye West. Not satisfied with presiding over a panel that called Kanye West an illiterate "token
Negro," CNN host Don Lemon went on a rant Thursday [10/11/2018] in which he said the rap star was a mentally unbalanced "minstrel" being
exploited by whites. In a segment Thursday on his network's "The Situation Room" show, Mr. Lemon also said that every black
person watching Mr. West's White House appearance earlier in the day was "cringing."
The Editor says...
It's nice of Don Lemon to speak on behalf of "every black person," but isn't he supposed to check with Jesse Jackson first?
Eric Holder
as President? Eric Holder has decided to run for president to complete the work of converting America to an
openly recognized communist country. But, he has a few things to answer for before he takes control of the entire law
enforcement apparatus of the United States and begins his war on whites. If you recall, he refused to arrest the Black
Panthers standing outside of a voting center when Barack Obama was elected. It was obvious voter intimidation, but by
claiming that worse had been done to "his" people, he would not prosecute.
Sharpton:
Trump Base Are Like People Who Attended Lynchings After Church. Friday on MSNBC's "Deadline," Al Sharpton said
President Donald Trump's supporters are like people who "would go to church and then go to the lynching after clothing
themselves in morality." When host Nicolle Wallace asked why the president is graded on a curve, Sharpton said, "Because
I think that we're dealing with a bully and he's been able to make people defensive that ought not be defensive. They
ought to be on the offense. And we need to stop apologizing for calling out what it is. What he is doing is
outrageous. When he mentions Adam's article about the lynchings, let's not forget these people would go to church and
then go to the lynching after clothing themselves in morality. And that's what we're seeing today."
Man
claims to be a minority business owner after DNA test shows he's 4% African. An insurance agent claims he
should qualify as a minority business owner, because a DNA test shows he's 4 percent African — enough, he
believes, to make him "a certified black man." Ralph Taylor knows on the outside he looks like an average white guy, but
he is trying using the results from his AncestryByDNA test to bolster his business in Lynnwood, Washington. "I've
always known that I'm multiracial," the 55-year-old declared to the Washington Post. The 2010 test showed that he's
90 percent European, 6 percent indigenous American and 4 percent sub-Saharan African.
Ted
Cruz Opponent Beto O'Rourke Says Police Are 'The New Jim Crow'. At an event at Prairie View A&M University in
Texas on Wednesday, Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate Beto O'Rourke agreed with the assertion that the police are "the new
Jim Crow." The Texas Democrat began his remarks by talking about the historic injustices against African-Americans in the
criminal justice system, saying it began when prisons began colluding with local business and employers to arrest African-Americans
for petty crime so they could force them to work on a chain gang. "That injustice, to many more people here than I know
firsthand, continues to persist today," Beto O'Rourke said.
The
Descent into Progressive Madness. The progressive street is leading fossilized Democrats into a sort of collective
madness. The dinosaurs of the party desperately seek relevance by sounding crazier than the new unhinged base that disrupts
Senate hearings, loudly pronounces a new socialist future, and envisions octogenarian Maxine Waters as more the future of the party
than is septuagenarian Nancy Pelosi. The spectacle is right out of Euripides's Bacchae, as the creaky old guard of the polis,
Tiresias and Cadmus, dress up in trendy, ridiculous ritual costumes to stumble along after the racing and frenzied young maenads
in their lethal courtship of suicidal Dionysian madness. Six-term senator Dianne Feinstein is running against a far more radical
Democrat, Kevin de León, in California's general election. (He added the accent and the "de" to his name in midlife,
thereby enhancing his ethnic authenticity.)
The
legacy of Barack Obama (and it's not a good one). The legacy of Obama represented one of the most racially
divided times in our nation's history. In a New York Times/CBS News poll conducted in July of Obama's final year in
office, 69 percent of Americans said that race relations were bad and that "six in 10 Americans say that race relations were
growing worse, up from 38 percent a year ago." The legacy of Obama represented a time when race-related riots were on the
rise. We can't forget the scenes on television in Baltimore and Ferguson, or the violence that erupted after the deaths
of Oscar Grant, Trayvon Martin, Manuel Diaz, and Kimini Gray. Images taken from each of these events resembled combat
zones, with police in riot gear while angry citizens burned cars, smashed windows, and vandalized storefronts.
A New Color
of Censorship from the SPLC. Color of Change, a radical leftist group campaigning to censor conservatives and
right-leaning groups, exploited the 2015 Charleston church shooting to go after the David Horowitz Freedom Center. The
Freedom Center's investigations had exposed Color of Change, but the leftist group's campaign to silence the Center briefly
succeeded last month. "Bloodmoney," Color of Change's smear campaign, seeks to shut down the fundraising abilities of
conservative organizations by pressuring credit card companies and payment processors to deny access to conservative groups
blacklisted by the Southern Poverty Law Center. Color of Change falsely accuses all of these groups of promoting
violence and white supremacy.
The
Real Cory Booker Likes to Quote a Violent, Anti-Semitic Racist. Little attention has been paid to Cory Booker's
opening statements at the Kavanaugh hearing and no mainstream media outlets are reporting who he is quoting over and over
again. There was a time when it would have been splashed on the front pages on newspapers, but we are all socialists
now as Newsweek said.
Cory
Booker Is Sharpton, Not Spartacus. [Cory] Booker, the new poster child for demagoguery, called it his Spartacus
moment, pretending to risk his political career by releasing, in violation of Senate rules, an email by Judge Brett Kavanaugh
on racial profiling that had already been cleared for release, a post 9/11 email that expressed the hope that a race-neutral
set of rules for vetting terrorists could be found. Racist it was not, except in the mind of Booker, [...]
Trump
Bashing at McCain [and] Franklin Funerals [was] Truly Juvenile. As childish as Donald can be, his detractors in
politics and the media are far worse. They are more out of control than he is — truly infantile. Many
of us suspected this would happen and decided to tune out. I know I did, even though I revered Aretha for many years
(McCain not so much). But when I read Louis Farrakhan would be front and center at her funeral I knew something was wrong.
Franklin's family says eulogy was
offensive. The eulogist, the Rev. Jasper Williams Jr., was criticized for a political address that
described children being in a home without a father as "abortion after birth" and said black lives do not matter unless
blacks stop killing each other.
The Editor says...
The family found that offensive, but they were proud to have Louis Farrakhan sitting front and center behind the podium.
Aretha's
Funeral: Anti-Trump Bigots Hear Truth About the No. 1 Problem in the Black Community. President Donald
Trump took a pounding at the services for Aretha Franklin. The Rev. Al Sharpton took Trump to task for supposedly
demonstrating a lack of respect by saying, "She worked for me on numerous occasions." Other speakers took shots at the
President either by name or by implication for his supposed racism and bigotry. Onstage, in the front row, sat Sharpton,
Nation of Islam Minister Louis Farrakhan, the Rev. Jesse Jackson and former President Bill Clinton, all of whom know a
thing or two about racism and bigotry. Their careers depend on exaggerating the extent and the impact of anti-black
white racism. At a rally in Harlem in 1991, Sharpton said, "If the Jews want to get it on, tell them to pin their
yarmulkes back and come over to my house."
Burying
the Dead With Bile-Filled Histrionics. The big news last week revolved around the funerals of a 1960s pop
singer and an unreliable Republican senator with a cult following among masochistic conservatives and cynical leftists eager
to capitalize on his capacity to spread dissension among his nominal allies. I suppose the exploitation of funerals for
grubby political ends is nothing new. Mark Antony did it with notable success when he eulogized Julius Caesar in 44 B.C.
But there was something especially stomach-churning about the injection of partisan animus into the obsequies of Aretha Franklin
and John McCain.
McCain
resurrects the Wellstone memorial disaster. Two well known and important people passed away this past
week: singer Aretha Franklin and senator John McCain. Both had memorial services attended by the political high
and mighty, and both services received extensive coverage on cable news. Both, rather than serving as a last chance to
honor and bury the dead, instead served as a political forum to focus on President Trump. It's what one would expect at
a campaign rally, not at a memorial service. Let's start with Aretha Franklin. [...] Jesse Jackson, a two-time
presidential candidate, made a pitch for voter registration. "We have long lines to celebrate death, and short lines
for voting. Something is missing. If you leave here today and don't register to vote, you're dishonoring Aretha."
Michael
Eric Dyson Goes on Anti-Trump Rant During Aretha Franklins's Funeral. Georgetown professor Michael Eric Dyson
went on a rant against the president and even suggested that Hillary Clinton won the election during his eulogy at Aretha
Franklin's funeral on Friday [8/31/2018]. He began his speech saying listing people who were in attendance including,
"President Clinton and her husband Bill."
Vicious
Anti-Trump Diatribes Mar Aretha Franklin's Memorial Service. The late great Aretha Franklin demanded
R-E-S-P-E-C-T, but that didn't stop at least a couple of speakers at her funeral service in Detroit on Friday [8/31/2018]
from trivializing her memory. Democrats Michael Eric Dyson and Al Sharpton took the opportunity to blast President
Trump during their eulogies, continuing a sickening Democratic tradition of politicizing public memorial services.
Former presidents and preachers and legendary singers took to the stage at Greater Grace Temple to pay their respects to the
Queen of Soul during the farewell extravaganza.
Flashback:
Here's a Long List of Top Democrats Saying "Monkeying Around". Yesterday [8/29/2018] a firestorm erupted when
Florida Republican gubernatorial candidate Ron DeSantis said during an interview on Fox News, "The last thing we need to do
is to monkey this up by trying to embrace a socialist agenda with huge tax increases and bankrupting the state." His
Democrat opponent Andrew Gillum and his friends in the leftist media immediately pounced, saying the use of the term was a
"racist bullhorn."
CNN's
Jeffrey Toobin Falsely Blames Antifa Violence on Black Americans. CNN senior legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin
bizarrely pinned the blame for Antifa violence on black Americans Tuesday night [8/28/2018], saying that the far-left group
is "widely perceived as an African-American organization." In response to President Trump warning of Antifa violence
should Democrats win the midterms, Jeffrey Toobin said, "Let's be clear also about what's going on here. The theme here
is, 'I'm Donald Trump and I'll protect you from the scary black people.'" "Antifa is widely perceived as an African-American
organization, and this is just part of the same story of LeBron James and Don Lemon and Maxine Waters and the NFL players and
the UCLA basketball players," he continued.
Dems
Are "Monkeying Around" With an Expression Barack Obama Used. Florida gubernatorial candidate Ron DeSantis used
a common expression in reference to the socialism his opponent supports and the Internet grew irate over it. They
decided to misinterpret what he said. "The last thing we need to do is monkey this up by trying to embrace a socialist
agenda with huge tax increases and bankrupting the state," Ron DeSantis said on Fox News in reference to his race against
Tallahassee Communist Mayor Andrew Gillum. Gillum is black and the bigots equated the word 'monkey' with him although
that is obviously not what innocent DeSantis meant. He's not a bigot so it never occurred to him.
Bill
Clinton, Sharpton, Holder to Speak at Aretha Franklin Funeral. Former President Bill Clinton, Smokey Robinson,
the Rev. Jesse Jackson and Cicely Tyson will be among the speakers at Aretha Franklin's funeral next week.
A
Perfect Storm Threatens America's Survival. With identity politics cloaked in the guise of diversity, is there room for
competence? Federal and state grants come laden with various demands for diversity. Businesses and government institutions
find themselves saddled with vice presidents and directors of diversity. Universities have indoctrinated their students with
diversity to the point where white males are now under direct assault throughout our society. The diversity purge is a threat
to fundamental excellence in major businesses and institutions. [...] Whatever happened to the notion of the best and most qualified
person for the job? How is identity politics helpful to our country? It's not. It's damaging. It's a
Democrat thing. Any fool can see this.
The
Southern Policy Law Center's Perfect Storm. The nation's longest running civil rights mail order scam has almost
$450 million in assets. The Southern Poverty Law Center, founded by a lawyer who had formerly defended a violent
racist who beat a Freedom Rider on behalf of the KKK, has a swollen bank account but is headed for a reckoning. Like
most big scams, the SPLC is a victim of its own success. The Klan, which its founder had once helped before launching a
lucrative career of fighting it, is irrelevant. And the SPLC's efforts to expand into fighting the Christian groups it
deems "homophobes" and critics of Islamists whom it accuses of "Islamophobia" have begun to backfire on the venerable civil
rights mail order scam organization.
Beto
O'Rourke says 'nothing more American' than NFL anthem protests. Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke has jumped into the NFL
national-anthem fray by defending players taking a knee during the ceremony, saying he could think of "nothing more American."
In a response going viral on social media, the Democrat seeking to unseat Sen. Ted Cruz, Texas Republican, compared the NFL
kneelers to civil-rights icons like Rosa Parks and the Freedom Riders during a campaign appearance last week in Houston.
Nancy
Pelosi Says President Trump's "Whole Thing Is Make America White Again". In an interview with MSNBC's Jonathan
Capehart Sunday, House minority leader Nancy Pelosi said the President's entire agenda is "make America white again."
This woman is evil. Pelosi has no platform except for the ad hominem attacks. Her latest is to claim Trump is the
master of the "dog whistle". She has to say that since she can't actually come up with a real quote.
The SPLC's terrible
year just got worse. It's been a rough year for the Southern Poverty Law Center — deservedly
so. And it just got more difficult, thanks to Attorney General Jeff Sessions. The SPLC, formed in 1971 as an
aggressive civil-rights nonprofit law firm, has become the left's go-to arbiter of what constitutes a hate group. Its
pronouncements are quoted without challenge by the news media, and it has an endowment of $300 million, enriched by major
corporate donors. Yet its overly broad definition of "hate" often goes far beyond truly vile outfits to include people
and groups that simply don't toe a politically correct line. That's why the SPLC two months ago had to pay $3.4 million
and publicly apologize to Maajid Nawaz, whom it had falsely labeled an "anti-Muslim extremist." (He's actually a practicing
Muslim who opposes extremism.)
Governor
won't order another Michael Brown investigation. The Missouri governor's office said Friday it doesn't have the authority to
appoint a special prosecutor to reinvestigate the 2014 fatal police shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, despite pressure from Brown's
mother to do so. Lezley McSpadden said earlier in the day that she'd launched an online petition seeking a new investigation
into her 18-year-old son's death, a case that sparked months of protests and helped fuel the Black Lives Matter movement nationally.
McSpadden also announced that she planned to run for a seat on the Ferguson City Council in April.
Michael
Brown's mother announces plan to run for Ferguson city council, four years after her son was killed. The mother
of Michael Brown, the black teen who was murdered by a white police officer in Missouri, has announced she is running for
city council. Lezley McSpadden announced her candidacy Friday on Canfield Drive, near where her son was shot and killed
on August 9, 2014. [...] McSpadden has been an activist since her son's death but has never held public office.
Florida
sheriff tells Al Sharpton to 'go back to New York. Mind your own business'. A Florida sheriff is telling
the Rev. Al Sharpton to get lost after the civil rights leader led a rally for a slain black man in Clearwater over the
weekend. "I wasn't there, and I don't really care what Al Sharpton has to say," Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gualtieri
said Monday [8/6/2018] at an unrelated news conference in St. Petersburg. "Go back to New York. Mind your own
business."
Kamala
Harris proudly owns her 'identity politics,' but she wants you to call it something less ugly. Democrats have
become so comfortable seeing everything through the lens of color, they now publicly defend their reliance on the divisive
issue of identity politics. Sen. Kamala Harris, speaking at the progressive gathering Netroots Nation, offered
logic that's hard to argue, saying identity politics "define our identity as Americans" — at least, from a
Democratic social justice viewpoint that looks past the content of one's character.
Senator
Kamala Harris: Vote For Me Or You're Racist. Obama in a dress is really off to a great start, spending a
lot of money on planning her presidential campaign, while strongly hinting that anyone who isn't on board is a racist. [...]
I doubt Harris faces the same risks that a black woman in Harlem or a white woman in Appalachia does. She's a wealthy
mixed-race Canadian raised politician who, like Obama, has trouble connecting with actual black people because she's never
truly been part of the black community. But sure. Let's "respect" her leadership. And have her opponents
get out of the way because her victory would be so "historic". And if you don't vote for her, you're racist.
Elizabeth
Warren says the criminal justice system is 'racist' from 'front to back'. Potential Democratic presidential
candidate Elizabeth Warren has a message about the U.S. criminal justice system.
The Editor says...
The article goes on to say Senator Warren was "[s]peaking to a historically black college," which means, in all likelihood,
that it's an all-black college. Apparently the purpose of her speech was to inflame the listeners' fears and
then take advantage of those fears to advance her own position. And that's not racist?
How Far Will
the Left Go? All the Way. [Scroll down] Like an opportunistic cancer, the Left finds the weak spots
and pounces, often retroactively. The Declaration of Independence says "all men are created equal," and yet all men
were manifestly not equal, and thus the American Founding is morally indefensible; that what the Founders meant were
"equal in the eyes of God" and what the socialist Left means is "economically equal," is passed over. Similarly, the
reductive Left has transformed what we used to call Italians, Germans, French, English, Irish, Russians, Poles, Greeks, and
other ethnic/national groups of European origin into "white people," the better to identify them as the "other" —
freaks and monsters — and pit them against Latin America, Africa, and Asia in a cultural-Marxist reboot of the
class struggle, now crudely and reprehensibly racialized.
This
group is pushing for more black political representation through a 'Black Census'. A group that has been
surveying thousands of African Americans is expanding the project, hoping to reach 200,000 people in a push for greater
political representation for black communities. The group responsible for the project, Black Futures Lab, started
reaching out to black Americans in February. So far, they have collected 7,600 responses to the survey, called
the Black Census Project.
The Toxic Race-Mongering
of the Left. The current status quo serves the short-sighted power aims of the worst of the Democratic party,
that is the far left, too well for them to abandon it. Scream racism at every disagreement and you might convince
meaning-seeking millennials that leftism provides them a cogent moral framework, you might scare blacks out of noticing that
they are thriving under Donald Trump's policies, you might convince women that Trump's boorish words are somehow worse than
Bill Clinton's actions. But the long-term costs of these political gains are great. The constant cries of racism
have kept race at the center of the American political discussion long after most Americans would happily let the subject go.
Has
Chuck Schumer's Own Racist History Comes Back To Bite Him? Democrat Minority leader Chuck Schumer has always
been one to call Republicans 'racist.' He's done it repeatedly to Donald Trump, tried to paste the label on the late Justice
Alito and has promised to attack Attorney General nominee Jeff Sessions,the judge who destroyed the Klu Klau Klan in Alabama
as a 'racist' as well. As it turns out, it appears Senator Schumer may be living in a glass house when it comes [to]
accusing anyone of racism.
'About
60 Organizations' Are Considering a Lawsuit Against the SPLC Following $3M Nawaz Settlement. No fewer than 60
organizations branded "hate groups" or otherwise attacked by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) are considering legal
action against the left-wing smear factory, a Christian legal nonprofit leader confirmed to PJ Media on Tuesday
[6/19/2018]. He suggested that the $3 million settlement and apology the SPLC gave to Maajid Nawaz and his
Quilliam Foundation on Monday [6/18/2018] would encourage further legal action.
The
SPLC Has Its Nose Rubbed in the Dirt. Few left-wing pressure groups are as vicious and mendacious as the
Southern Poverty Law Center. Founded in 1971, the SPLC today mainly exists to smear opponents of full-spectrum
progressivism as "bigots" and "extremists." Once the Montgomery, Alabama-based outfit mislabels an individual or an
institution this way, it becomes nearly impossible to clear the taint, since many reporters mistake the SPLC for a bona fide
rights watchdog. So it's good to see the SPLC held to account for at least one of these smears. On Monday, the
group publicly apologized to Maajid Nawaz and agreed to pay his organization, the Quilliam Foundation, some $3.4 million
to settle a defamation suit. The SPLC in 2016 included Nawaz, who has spent years peacefully combatting both Islamism
and anti-Muslim bigotry in Britain, in its Field Guide to Anti-Muslim Extremists, alongside a litany of genuine haters.
Val and Al: MSNBC's Real
Teachable Moment. MSNBC invited Ms. Jarrett on their network to discuss. Which seemed fine when one simply
heard of the invite. But as presented? Wow. There at Valerie Jarrett's side as she talked about this episode as
a "teachable moment" was — one can't make this up — Al Sharpton. [...] Yet there sits Valerie Jarrett on MSNBC talking about a
"teachable moment" as next to her is somebody — a notorious racial arsonist — who has an absolutely wretched record on all things
racial. Will MSNBC dump Sharpton in the wake of the Roseanne episode? Of course not. For that matter will they dump the
gay bashing Joy Reid? Absolutely not. And Disney? The company that so ostentatiously fired Roseanne — but hired
Keith Olbermann? Olbermann the guy who tweets four letter words and all manner of contemptuous bile towards the President and
his supporters? Will Olbermann be fired for, to borrow from the Disney Roseanne statement, tweets that are "abhorrent,
repugnant and inconsistent with our values"? Ha! Don't hold your breath.
Will
Starbucks become America's largest chain of homeless shelters? At one level incidents like the one at the Philadelphia Starbucks
are minor affairs that are ginned up into major crises by the left-wing outrage machine. On the other hand, Starbucks' decision throw
open its doors to non-customers to use as public gathering places shows just how far things can go when a company decides that placating social
justice warriors is more important than satisfying customers.
Ex-congressman
says he's 'given up on America' after sentenced for 3rd conviction. A former Democratic congressman from
Chicago, heading to prison for the third time, says he has "given up on America" and plans to move to Africa after he serves
his latest sentence. At his sentencing Thursday [5/10/2018], Mel Reynolds, 66, got six months in prison for failing to file tax
returns on more than $400,000 he received for consulting work. He also received a scolding from federal Judge Robert Gettleman,
who told the Harvard graduate he could recall thinking to himself in the early 1990s that Reynolds had tremendous promise.
Texas:
Pakistani Muslim Immigrant Elected to the Euless City Council. On Saturday, Salman Bhojani was elected to the
Euless City Council, triumphing over a conservative state lawmaker's ugly campaign attacks on his religion and immigrant
background. Bhojani, who will be the city's first minority council member, defeated his opponent Molly Maddux by a margin
of 37 votes. Bhojani, a lawyer who moved to the U.S. from Pakistan 18 years ago, has portrayed his win as a
victory for diversity and acceptance. In a city with 55,000 residents, about 50 percent are people of color, which
should be reflected on the council, he says. But both during and after the campaign, Bhojani has tried to focus on
nonpartisan local issues. Bhojani spent the last four years on the city's parks and recreation board, and ran
unsuccessfully for a council seat two years ago.
5
Reasons The Southern Poverty Law Center Is A Hate-Mongering Scam. Amazon has decided to pull the Alliance
Defending Freedom from its Amazon Smile program, in which shoppers can send a portion of their Amazon purchases to
charities. Because the Southern Poverty Law Center has labeled ADF a hate group, Amazon yanked its opportunity to
receive donations on an equal playing field with other Amazon Smile participants, which include highly political leftist
organizations Planned Parenthood, the American Civil Liberties Union, Media Matters, and Oxfam-America. ADF is a
nonprofit, First Amendment-focused legal organization that has successfully argued in front of the Supreme Court seven times
in the past seven years. It is not some Klu Klux Klan revival, and to suggest so is both false and deeply
offensive. Yet slandering good-faith people is SPLC's raison d'etre.
Southern
Poverty Law Center Quietly Deleted List of 'Anti-Muslim' Extremists After Legal Threat. The Southern Poverty
Law Center has removed the "Field Guide to Anti-Muslim Extremists" from their website after attorneys for Maajid Nawaz, a
practicing Muslim and prominent Islamic reformer, threatened legal action over his inclusion on the list. The report,
which had been active on the SPLC's website since it was published in December 2016, was intended to serve as a resource for
journalists to identify promoters of hateful propaganda; but it included a number of liberal reformers such as Nawaz, a
former Islamic extremist who has since dedicated his life to combating the hateful ideology.
Baltimore
police chief attends hip-hop show, apologizes for '200 years' of abuse by cops. Music lovers arrived at Baltimore Soundstage on
Wednesday night [4/18/2018] to hear the tunes of hip-hop group Eric B. & Rakim, but soon found themselves listening to an apology for
corrupt policing. "I want to take about 20 seconds to apologize for all the things that the police have done dating back 200 years,"
Commissioner De Sousa said in a video posted online by Baltimore Fishbowl. "Two-hundred years ago, all the way to civil rights. All
the way to the '80s where crack was prevalent in the cities and it affected disproportionately African-American men. All the way to the
'90s. All the way to the 2000s when we had zero tolerance."
Eric
Holder to Help Starbucks Train Employees For 'Racial Bias Education Day'. On Tuesday [4/17/2018], Starbucks announced it
will be closing 8,000 stores on May 29 so 175,000 employees can attend a training program that will address implicit bias, promote
inclusion and help prevent discrimination, NBC reports. Eric Holder was tapped as one of the 'experts' to assist with training
the employees. That's all you need to know.
Sharpton
[and a] school survivor, announce anti-gun violence rally. A survivor of the Parkland, Florida, school shooting
joined the Rev. Al Sharpton on Saturday to announce a June rally in front of President Donald Trump's Manhattan
apartment to protest gun violence eased by access to assault weapons.
Al
Sharpton's Group And Black Lives Matter Team Up For Pro-Farrakhan Protest. Several black activist groups are
holding a protest on Monday in defense of Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, a notorious anti-Semite and racist revealed
to have close ties to prominent Democratic politicians and activists. Black Lives Matter, the New Black Panther Party
and the National Action Network are among the groups spearheading the protest, the organizers said in a press release.
The groups are protesting a House resolution, introduced by Republican Indiana Rep. Todd Rokita, that formally condemns
Farrakhan's anti-Semitism. The activists instead want lawmakers to pass a resolution condemning President Donald Trump.
Farrakhan, The Left, and
Anti-Semitism. As documented here many, many times, "playing the race card," as racism is politely called these
days, is part and parcel of the Left in America and always has been. What once was slavery and segregation are now
laughably called "identity politics." And most assuredly, a thorough going part of that racism is anti-Semitism. And
when the spotlight is turned on, in this case on a leader of the so-called "Women's March" and various members of the Congressional
Black Caucus or various other lefty Democrats, there is much hemming and hawing at having been caught in the act. But the
"why" behind all of this latest go-round over left-wing support for Farrakhan — the man who once proclaimed that
"Hitler was a great man" — is simple to understand. This streak of racism is part of the larger racial agenda
that the Left has been preaching for decades. To wit: divide by race. Win elections. And if, in
this case, it means hanging with one of the most vicious anti-Semites of the day? So be it.
How Identity Politics
Is Made to Destroy Us. In January, when negotiations over the fate of 800,000 DACA recipients broke down, House
Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) blamed the impasse on the alleged racism of President Trump and his senior advisers.
"Last night the president put forth a plan," Pelosi told the U.S. Conference of Mayors. "Let me just say what I said last
night, that plan is a campaign to make America white again." This was not only an obvious lie, but a spectacularly brazen
one, since Trump's announced plan would provide a path to citizenship not only for the illegal aliens who had benefited from
President Obama's constitutionally suspect Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, all of whom are nonwhite, but for
a million additional illegals, mainly from Latin America, who are also mainly nonwhite.
Illinois
governor drinks chocolate milk to demonstrate commitment to corporate diversity. Illinois governor Bruce Rauner took a gulp of
chocolate milk to display his commitment to diversity Wednesday [2/21/2018]. "It's really, really good — diversity," he
said in front of an audience at the Thompson Center in Chicago. Hyatt Hotels diversity and inclusion executive Tyronne Stoudemire
included the governor in the demonstration, which was part of a Black History Month celebration. He described a glass of plain milk
as representative of corporate America today.
Black
voter registration effort launched at 'Black Panther' screenings. An activist group has launched a voter
registration effort aimed at black voters at screenings of the "Black Panther" movie nationwide. Members of the
Electoral Justice Project, an offshoot of the Movement for Black Lives, are seeking to motivate black voters and increase
political engagement with the #WakandaTheVote campaign, the website Blavity reported. Wakanda is the fictional African
nation featured in the long-anticipated Marvel film "Black Panther."
Michelle
Obama faces backlash for racial 'Black Panther' comment that ignores film history. Moviegoers were quick to
correct former first lady Michelle Obama this week after she framed the blockbuster movie "Black Panther" as a racial
milestone. The left-wing magazine Salon was mocked by superhero fans earlier this month for calling "Black Panther" the
"first blockbuster-format release featuring a black hero front and center." Mrs. Obama, however, made the same error on
Monday [2/19/2018] after the Marvel Studios hit tallied the highest-grossing February debut — $201.8 million for its
Friday-Sunday weekend.
Planned
Parenthood Attacks Trump's Judicial Nominee For Being White. On Tuesday, Planned Parenthood, referring to a
judicial nominee of President Trump, attacked him for being white. The tweet referred to nominee Kyle Duncan, whom
Trump nominated for the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. [...] Notably, Duncan represented Hobby Lobby at the U.S. Supreme
Court when the Obama administration targeted the Christian company for being unwilling to cover employees for drugs that
could cause abortions.
J.B.
Pritzker campaign staffer resigns over candidate's FBI-wiretapped comments. A campaign worker for J.B. Pritzker
resigned on Tuesday [2/6/2018] as fallout continued to hit the front-running Democratic candidate for governor over his comments
denigrating several African-American politicians during an FBI-wiretapped 2008 conversation with then-Gov. Rod Blagojevich.
"I will not stand by a candidate who feels that way about Black folks," staffer Kina Collins wrote in a Facebook post Tuesday
afternoon. "I withdraw my support and endorsement for him as Governor. I apologize to my community for being apart
[sic] of the campaign, but when you know better you do better," Collins wrote. "I promise to do better!"
Black
Lives Matter Goes to the Olympics. The left plays the race card as often as it plays the Nazi or gender card, its
hackneyed alternative to any substantive discussion about issues and policy. It's much like those pull-string dolls:
pull the string of a liberal and hear about race, gender, skin color, or immigration status. And not much else.
Democrats'
Hatred Of Trump Is Going To Bring Them Down. When [President] Trump summarized the successes of his first year in office, he
emphasized how the prosperity of his first twelve months impacted the lives and hopes of ordinary Americans, wage laborers and others whom
the eight years of the Obama presidency had left behind. In doing so he exposed the Democrats in the most dramatic way imaginable.
Under his policies, he boasted, black and Hispanic unemployment are record lows. As he said this and the Republican side of the house
rose to its feet in applause the TV camera panned to the morose members of the Democrats' Black Caucus, sitting on their hands and showing
America that the last thing they care about is their black constituents. What they care about is their hatred for Trump, and about not
disturbing the biggest lie of the political season: that the White House is the headquarters of a "white supremacy" movement intent on
keeping black Americans down and making them suffer.
Maxine
Waters Makes an FCC Suggestion for Trump. Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) was one of five Democrats to offer a
response to President Trump's State of the Union address. She didn't actually attend, so to put it another way she
offered a response to a speech she didn't even watch. Still, she has Trump figured out. He's a "despicable
human," he's a "racist," he's "not a role model," and — her latest description — he's not fit for TV.
"Whenever he appears on TV there should be a disclaimer that says 'This may be may not be acceptable for children,'" Waters said
during her pre-taped response for Angela Rye's BET special Wednesday [1/31/2018].
Pelosi's 'White'
America. We make fun of Nancy Pelosi for good reason because of her nonsensical rants. [...] Nancy does not
like the ethnic makeup of the electorate that elected President Trump. Nancy is saying these are "white voters," not
necessarily white or Caucasian, but "white" in the sense that they reject the Democratic Party/Leftist agenda of open
borders, abortion on demand, sanctuary cities and states, crony capitalism, amnesty for all illegals, high tax rates,
increased regulations on business, and a cradle-to-grave nanny welfare state administered by the Annointed Ruling Class
of Leftist Democrats and RINO Republicans. To oppose this means acting "white" to Nancy.
Pelosi
plays race card: Trump immigration plan to 'make America white again'. A Saltine-white woman from one of
the richest congressional districts in the country played the race card against President Trump during a speech to U.S.
mayors. Addressing the United States Conference of Mayors, Nancy Pelosi promoted illegal immigration, sanctuary cities
and so-called "Dreamers." [Video clip]
Pelosi
Gone Wild: Trump's Dreamer Deal A "Campaign To Make America White Again". I admit to being a bit puzzled
by the leftist outrage over President Trump's proposed DACA deal. I fail to see anything "racist" about providing a
pathway to citizenship for over a million illegal aliens (or in any of the other proposed provisions). House minority
leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), however, seems to imagine that it's some kind of white supremacist plot.
Are
There Any Sharks Left to Jump? Low income people suffer disproportionately from every problem. If every
problem is a "civil rights" problem, then nothing is. Here's an idea: prosperity and economic growth. What a
concept. By the way, I wonder if anyone at the NAACP noted on Monday [1/15/2018] that black unemployment is at a historic low.
The
Southern Poverty Law Center is a money-grabbing slander machine. Ayaan Hirsi Ali grew up in Somalia, where she
suffered female genital mutilation. So now she speaks out against radical Islam. For that, SPLC put her on its
list of dangerous "extremists." Maajid Nawaz was once an Islamic extremist. Then he started criticizing the
radicals. SPLC labels him an "anti-Muslim extremist," too. While launching hateful smears like these, SPLC
invites you to donate to them to "join the fight against hatred and bigotry." SPLC once fought useful fights. They
took on the Ku Klux Klan. But now they go after people on the right with whom they disagree. They call the Family
Research Council a hate group because it says gay men are more likely to sexually abuse children. That's their belief.
There is some evidence that supports it. Do they belong on a "hate map," like the Ku Klux Klan, because they believe that
evidence and worry about it? I often disagree with the council, but calling them a hate group is unfair.
Under
the New Trump Standard, Why Wasn't Obama Impeached? One of Trump's major campaign promises was to build a "wall" to protect our southern
border. Never mind that, in 2006, 26 Democratic senators — including Hillary Clinton, then-Sen. Barack Obama and Chuck Schumer — voted
for hundreds of miles of barriers and fencing. And every Senate Democrat voted for 2013's Border Security, Economic Opportunity, and
Immigration Modernization Act, which again called for hundreds of miles of barriers. But Trump is "racist" and "xenophobic."
Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, calls Trump a "bigot in the White House who incites hatred and hostility," which, says Green, is a "high
misdemeanor" that constitutes an impeachable offense.
State
Department Touts SPLC, Open Society Foundation in Grant. The SPLC, a legal advocacy and civil rights watchdog,
purports to combat racist organizations and individuals, but has been panned for classifying Muslim moderates as "anti-Muslim
extremists." Maajid Nawaz, a prominent UK Muslim reformer who founded an anti-radicalization organization, is suing the
SPLC for identifying him as an Islamophobe. The SPLC has also refused to designate "antifa" a hate group, while applying
that epithet to politically conservative and religious groups.
Exactly right, but not in the way they intended:
Citing
"Racism," Maxine Waters, John Lewis To Skip Trump's SOTU. In the wake of Representative John Lewis (D-GA)
announcing he would not attend President Trump's inauguration, more than 50 Democrats refused to attend. Now three
Democrats, so far, are refusing to attend the president's State of the Union (SOTU) address on January 30th. The first
to announce his intention of skipping the President's first SOTU was Representative Earl Blumenauer (D-OR). His announcement
was made early this month.
NAACP
Says MLK's Vision Can't Be Achieved Without Fighting Global Warming. This Martin Luther King, Jr. Day,
the NAACP wants man-made global warming to be seen as a civil rights issue, arguing King's vision of a society free of racial
injustice can't be achieved without addressing warming. "We see climate change as a civil rights issue," Jacqueline
Patterson, head of the NAACP's environmental and climate justice program, said in an online radio spot for the Yale Center
for Environmental Connection. Environmental activists have been increasingly framing global warming as a matter of
"environmental justice," since "minority and low-income populations are disproportionately affected by global warming,"
Patterson told Yale's online radio Climate Connections.
The Editor says...
I never heard MLK say anything about global warming.
Democrats
ramp up efforts to boycott Trump's State of the Union address. Florida Rep. Frederica Wilson added her
name to a growing list of Democratic lawmakers who say they are fed up with President Trump and will boycott his State of the
Union address at the end of the month. Wilson, who was elected in 2010 and made headlines last year for fighting with
Trump over his telephone call to the widow of a fallen soldier, cited the president's "recent racist and incendiary remarks
about Haiti and African nations" for reasons why she wouldn't be attending the Jan. 30 speech. "For the first time
since I began serving in the U.S. House of Representatives, I will not be attending the president's State of the Union address,"
Wilson said in a statement late Sunday [1/14/2018]. "I have no doubts that instead of delivering a message of inclusivity
and an agenda that benefits all Americans, President Trump's address will be full of innuendo, empty promises and lies."
The Editor says...
Barack H. Obama made "State of the Union" speeches that were "full of innuendo, empty promises and lies," and the Republicans
didn't boycott those event for political gain. As a public service, I have kept excerpts from the reviews of Obama's
SOTU speeches (and many
others) here
and here.
Please
stop politicizing Martin Luther King Day. It seems that no national holiday is exempt from the media's need for
political controversy. This Monday [1/15/2018], on what should be a day for Americans to put aside politics and come
together to honor the legacy of an extraordinary American, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the media has decided instead to
seize upon it as yet another opportunity to further sow the division and partisan polarization already plaguing our
country. The New Yorker magazine decided to use Dr. King to touch on the continuing raw nerve that is NFL's
national anthem protests, with its cover depicting Dr. King kneeling alongside Colin Kaepernick and Michael Bennett, two
of the instrumental leaders in the controversy.
The 17 Most
Annoying People of 2017. [#10] Congresswoman Maxine Waters has represented the same South LA district since
Reconstruction. She lives in a white neighborhood and has never gone for more than five consecutive minutes without
reminding everyone that she's black. As unintelligent as she is self-righteous, she claimed in 2017 that Vladimir Putin
invaded Korea, referred to Trump and his associates as "scumbags," called the White House "the White Supremacists' House,"
and has repeatedly demanded for Trump's impeachment based on little more than the fact that he has thin lips and almost
invisible eyebrows. It is my sincere belief that Maxine Waters is a racist, and as everyone knows, I disavow racism
not only because it is evil, but because it is unpopular.
The Deep
Racism of the Left. [Scroll down] But is there really anyone in the Democratic caucus who doesn't know
that Maxine Waters is crazy? Or Sheila Jackson Lee? Or Hank Johnson, the Georgia Democrat who worried that Guam
would tip over if more U.S. armed forces were based there? Or former Florida Democrat Corrine Brown, recently convicted
of corruption and sentenced to prison? Or that John Conyers, cashiered with great reluctance (because he's a "legend"
don't you know), was effectively senile? The patronization of the Congressional Black Caucus by the Democratic
leadership is one of those obvious Washington phenomena that everyone is embarrassed to speak openly about. Members of
the Black Caucus are always prominently included in Democratic press conferences for exactly the reason Ostroy thought Tim
Scott was included at the White House tax rally. It was only natural Ostory thinks that way about Scott, because that's
how liberals secretly think about minorities themselves.
MSNBC
Guest Calls Former Sheriff David Clarke an 'Uncle Tom'. In a Saturday [12/9/2017] appearance on MSNBC's "AM
Joy," SiriusXM satellite radio's Mark Thompson reacted to former Milwaukee County, WI Sheriff David Clarke saying "John who?"
in response to being asked about Representative John Lewis (D-GA) and calling him "irrelevant." Thompson dismissed
Clarke's comments, calling him "crazy" and "an Uncle Tom."
Trump
pays tribute to civil-rights heroes in Mississippi as black leaders boycott his visit. With some black leaders boycotting the
event, President Trump paid tribute Saturday [12/10/2017] to the heroes of the civil rights movement at the dedication of two museums in
Mississippi. Speaking to a small invitation-only group of dignitaries indoors at the new civil-rights museum in Jackson, Mr. Trump
called the facility honoring leaders of the movement "a tribute to our nation at the highest level." "Today we pay solemn tribute to
our heroes of the past and dedicate ourselves to building a future of freedom, equality, justice and peace," Mr. Trump said.
Al
Sharpton to lead prayer service for Rep. Frederica Wilson. Rev. Al Sharpton will lead a prayer service to honor
Rep. Frederica Wilson on Saturday, after her recent faceoff with President Trump and White House chief of staff John Kelly.
"In an effort towards healing and unifying our community during these times of pain and conflict, faith leaders will join together at
a prayer service to cover Congresswoman Frederica S. Wilson (FL-24) in prayer as she continues to be a voice for the voiceless,"
a statement from Wilson's office read.
The
Congressional Black Caucus: Purveyors of Black Urban Decline. Every week a prominent Democrat is in the news labeling their opposition
as racist as if it is some sort of sport. Do you support school choice that helps struggling black parents end generational poverty? Racist.
Call out black crime rates that disproportionately claim black victims? Racist. Criticize the welfare state that keeps black people hooked on
government handouts? Racist. Are you a Republican? Automatic racist. And if you're a black conservative like I am, it's even worse.
No substantive conversation can take place in this environment.
Rev
Jesse Jackson blasts Texans owner Bob McNair as having a 'plantation mentality'. The leading civil rights
activist Reverend Jesse Jackson has demanded Houston Texans owner Bob McNair is sanctioned for his comments on the anthem
row. [...] He has also called on football players to intensify their protests amid criticism from US President Donald Trump.
A
clown in a sequined cowboy hat distorts greatest sacrifice. At last America is once again unified. We are, it turns
out, all racists. Because if retired Marine General and current White House Chief of Staff John Kelly, a Gold Star dad among so
many other distinctions, is a racist, then every last one of us is. This is according to the great titan of objective intellect,
Congresswoman Frederica Wilson of South Florida.
American
Soldiers Died In Niger Because Of Obama. Congresswoman Frederica Wilson has come up with a new gimmick for
getting invited on CNN. After exploiting the death of one soldier killed in an attack in Niger, she decided that if
exploiting one soldier made her famous, exploiting the deaths of all the soldiers would make her even more famous.
Wilson has taken to calling the attack, "Mr. Trump's Benghazi." And she's close. American soldiers died in Niger
for the same reasons that Americans died in Benghazi. Both were fallout from the Arab Spring. It wasn't President
Trump who deployed our soldiers to Niger. That was Obama's doing. Congresswoman Wilson complained that they,
"didn't have appropriate weapons where they were" and that "they had trucks that were not armored trucks." She is welcome
to take up those objections with Obama.
Gen.
John Kelly: 'Stunned' After 'Empty Barrel' Frederica Wilson Politicized President's Phone Call. White House
chief of staff General John Kelly sternly lectured Congressman Frederica Wilson for listening to and politicizing President
Donald Trump's phone call to the grieving widow of a slain soldier. "It stuns me that a member of Congress would have
listened in on the conversation — absolutely stuns me," Kelly said, "And I thought at least that was sacred."
Kelly delivered a stirring speech at the White House press briefing about the sacred duty of people serving in the military
and the president's role in comforting grieving family members and called Wilson a "selfish member of Congress" for
politicizing the phone call.
Congresswoman
Plays Race Card in Attack on Trump Chief of Staff. Rep. Frederica Wilson, D-Fla., the congresswoman who
attacked President Trump after his phone call to a Gold Star widow, is now playing the race card in her public feud with
White House Chief of Staff Gen. John Kelly. Speaking with CNN on Friday morning, Wilson slammed Kelly for calling
her an "empty barrel," saying the characterization is racist. "That's a racist term, too. I'm thinking about that
one. We looked it up in the dictionary because I had never heard of an empty barrel. And I don't like to be
dragged into something like that," Wilson said Friday on CNN's "New Day."
The Editor says...
Notice that Frederica Wilson had never heard of the term, "empty barrel," but immediately she was sure it was a racial slur.
Fredericka
Wilson Plays the Race Card. Yesterday, Rep. Fredericka Wilson claimed that John Kelly's comments about
President Trump's condolence call to the Gold Star family of Sergeant La David Johnson were an attempt to save his job as
White House chief of staff. Wilson's office then declared that she would have no further comment on this controversy.
The
Congressional Black Caucus Prayer Breakfast: The Great Black Deception. The CBC Prayer Breakfast had
nothing to do with Jesus or spreading His Love. Quite the opposite. It was about spreading hate for police,
strengthening the Trump resistance, and strengthening black's bogus belief that they are victims in America. The
breakfast was also about despicably instilling hate and fear to register new Democrat voters.
Making
money on hate. These are not happy times for the Southern Poverty Law Center, which doesn't have a lot to do
with the South, poverty or the law, and it thrives far from the center of the political spectrum. The center is mostly
a cash machine, and it has raised hundreds of millions of dollars, mostly from well-meaning but gullible liberals —
"progressives" in the current argot — in the name of fighting injustice and hate. Lately it has been called
out as a hate group itself.
Trump
Not Letting Media Turn Puerto Rico Into His 'Katrina'. Trump, in the case of Puerto Rico and Hurricane Maria,
refuses to let media and politicians like Rep. Luis Gutierrez, D-Ill., who called the federal response in Puerto Rico
"disgraceful," turn this into Trump's Katrina. After Katrina, President Bush got blamed for the shortcomings and
political infighting between local and state authorities. Recall how rapper Kanye West, during a fundraiser for Katrina
victims, claimed, "George Bush doesn't care about black people." Then-senatorial candidate Claire McCaskill even said,
"George Bush let people die on rooftops in New Orleans because they were poor and because they were black." As for
Hurricane Maria and Trump's response, San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulin Cruz said: "We are dying here. ... And you are
killing us with the inefficiency and the bureaucracy. We will make it with or without you. ... I am done being
polite. I am done being politically correct. I am mad [...], because my people's lives are at stake."
Trump, in a series of tweets, fired back: [...]
The crass politics of windy
compassion. Those ill winds blowing out of the Caribbean are blowing somebody good, or at least there's
somebody who thinks they're good. There's always profit in somebody else's misery. Some Democrats in Washington
see opportunities to make hay with Puerto Ricans who would settle for a drink of clean water and something to eat.
Hurricane Maria, now safely out to sea, has so ruined the island that many Puerto Ricans are encouraged to resettle in
Florida, a swing state with the partisan numbers so narrow that only a few Puerto Ricans might swing it permanently to the
left and to the Democrats. [...] Democrats relish the arrival of younger than usual imports. These are not immigrants,
but settlers as American as Texans, Californians or Pennsylvanians, American citizens by a 1917 act of Congress. They
can't vote for president and they have no representation in Congress, but once ashore all they have to do to vote is to
register in their new states.
Hillary
Clinton peddles fake news about Trump and Puerto Rico. Frustrated by the justifiably high marks President Trump
received for the federal government's response to Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, portions of the left are attacking Trump for
allegedly not being sufficiently concerned about Hurricane Maria, which pounded Puerto Rico. Hillary Clinton is doing
her part. She slammed the president for his near silence about the situation in Puerto Rico. Ever the snob,
Clinton stated, with no apparent basis, "I'm not sure he knows that Puerto Ricans are American citizens."
Clinton's vicious former spokesman Brian Fallon made explicit what the left is really alleging. He tweeted: "Trump's racist
neglect of Puerto Rico is threatening lives. It's time to start caring about the crisis there." The rush baselessly to
label people "racists" and "deplorables" is one the reasons Hillary Clinton did not become president and, thus, Brian Fallon
did not become White House press secretary. Viewed in this context, I suppose we should be grateful that they are
so quick to play the race card.
Maxine
Waters Tells Blacks to Play the Race Card. Apparently, the race card is too heavy for only a few to lift, so
the Congressional Black Circus clowns like Waters needs help. In speaking to a congregation of black nationalists and
white Leftist enablers, Waters proved how divisive she and the Left truly are, as she implored attendees to "play the race card".
Rev.
Al Sharpton says Trump's Colin Kaepernick comments show the President's 'political cowardice'. The Rev. Al
Sharpton said on Saturday that President Trump's crude call for NFL owners to fire protesting players completely misses the
point of why they're taking a knee in the first place. "Why don't you, as President, address what the protest is
about? Why?" Sharpton asked as he addressed a cheering crowd during his weekly rally at his National Action Network
headquarters in Harlem. "The reason you won't is because they're protesting the criminal justice inequities in this
country," a fired up Sharpton said to roaring applause.
As
St. Louis Erupts, Democrats Own It. The acquittal on Friday [9/15/2017] of a white cop on trial for murder
for fatally shooting a black man in 2011 after a high-speed chase was immediately met with demonstrations and violence
including attacks on police, property, and the media. That was predictable, but what was equally and sadly on display
were incendiary comments by local elected Democrat officials up and down the line that appeared to add more fuel to the
already volatile fire in the streets. [...] None of these politicians — in the midst of a volatile situation with
various agitators having planned and threatened to take action — encouraged people to respect the integrity of the
judicial system that had rendered a verdict in the case.
"Sambogate". Move over,
Muhammad; you're no longer the only sacred icon that can't be drawn as a cartoon. Black people are now on the small and
exclusive list of things that will spark an instantaneous jihad if sketched by an artist. And the ground zero for black
cartoon proscription? Chicago, a city in which blacks are so sacred, they compete with one another on a daily basis
for martyrdom.
The Editor says...
The article above is about the PC over-reaction
to this cartoon.
Al
Sharpton's daughter Ashley Sharpton arrested after cops say she attacked cab driver. A birthday celebration for
Rev. Al Sharpton's daughter ended in handcuffs early Saturday after she punched a cabbie in Midtown and snatched his
keys, police sources said. Ashley Sharpton was in a yellow taxi just before 1 a.m. with three of her friends near the
intersection of W. 48th St. and Ninth Ave. Each of the passengers gave the driver a different destination.
The cabbie Georges Coly — annoyed and confused — stopped the car and refused to move until Sharpton's group
could figure out where they wanted to go.
The
Southern Poverty Law Center Has $69 Million Parked Overseas. The Southern Poverty Law Center invests almost 20 percent of
its nearly $320 million endowment fund in offshore equities and other investments. The 2016 annual report of the Alabama-based civil
rights organization reports $69,093,576 of "non-U.S. equity funds" among the assets comprising the total endowment fund of $319,283,961, a
fund the SPLC describes as a "plan for the day when nonprofits like the SPLC can no longer afford to solicit support through the mail
because of rising postage and printing costs." (Given that 2016 contributions topped $45 million, that day has not yet arrived.)
NH
Dem Chair: Rural, Disaffected Voters Are 'White Supremacists'. New Hampshire's Democratic Party chair
referred to rural, disaffected voters as "white supremacists" and "extremists" on Sunday [9/3/2017]. WMUR9 told its
viewers that Look Ahead America, an organization that reaches out to "disaffected, patriotic Americans" may be headed to New
Hampshire next. "New Hampshire's going to be, probably, the state we advance to next," Matt Braynard, the executive
director said. "We've identified maybe 15,000 inactive voters who we would consider disaffected, patriotic
Americans. And potentially 100,000 or more unregistered adults we're going to reach out to."
Fortunately, Jesse Jackson is not the one who decides.
Jesse
Jackson: Trump 'Would Not Qualify to Get Into Jesus' Kingdom'. President Donald Trump may want to tighten
requirements on who can immigrate to the United States, but Rev. Jesse Jackson thinks he should instead worry about his
own citizenship in heaven. "Trump says you must be able to speak the language of English, [be] qualified, and have a
job skill," Jackson said Monday [8/28/2017]. "Jesus would not qualify to come in Trump's country — he would
not qualify to get into Jesus' kingdom." Jackson made the comment Monday at the "Ministers March for Justice," which was
spearheaded by Rev. Al Sharpton and featured ministers from various traditions united in opposing the Trump administration.
Blacklist: The Left's
latest war on free speech. Blacklists are ugly things. They're how you terrorize and intimidate
people. They're a weapon of hate. And Color of Change, an extremist group, is using blacklists to smear all
conservatives as racists. Color of Change, the organization founded by Van Jones, a 9/11 Truther and former Communist,
has circulated a blacklist to PayPal, Discover, Visa, Master Card and American Express that falsely and libelously groups
together a black Harlem church, the David Horowitz Freedom Center, an ex-Muslim organization, Jihad Watch and others as
"white supremacists" alongside actual Neo-Nazis. But Color of Change's definition of "white supremacist" is Republican.
Democratic
Gubernatorial Candidate Says 'Maine's Whiteness Is Bad News'. Democratic gubernatorial candidate Mark Eves
believes "Maine's whiteness is bad news" according to remarks he delivered during a Maine People's Alliance event this
week. According to Maine First Media and Big League Politics, the former Speaker of the Maine House of Representatives
delivered the remarks while addressing a group of nearly one hundred activists and grassroots supporters Wednesday evening
[8/30/2017] at the "Resistance Rising" forum event put on by the Maine People's Alliance in Lewiston.
Blacklist
America and the White Supremacist Black Church. The ATLAH World Missionary Church is located in the heart of Harlem right off
Malcolm X Boulevard. Pastor David Manning grew up picking cotton in the segregated South. The African-American church
and its pastor have had plenty of critics over the years, but none have accused them of white supremacy. Until now. Color of
Change has rolled out its version of the Southern Poverty Law Center blacklist. The race-baiting group, co-founded by CNN's Van Jones,
put up a petition demanding that credit card companies stop taking "blood money" by "processing funds for over 100 white supremacist
hate groups." The Color of Change list of "white supremacist hate groups" includes Pastor Manning's black church.
Trump's
Coming Victory over Identity Politics. Let us first be clear: No one on the political Left can possibly
succeed in easing racial tensions. Their identity politics approach has played itself out beyond the limits of
absurdity. That is what the reassignment of the Asian-American sports announcer, Robert Lee, really demonstrates.
This farcical episode, made ESPN a mockery, even to some on the Left.
The
DNC: America's Most Notorious Hate Group. In December 2015, President Obama lauded [Black Lives Matter] for
shining "sunlight" on the problem of racist policing in America, and on a subsequent occasion he likened BLM to the abolition
and suffrage movements, which he said were also "contentious and messy" but ultimately noble. And on July 13,
2016 — a mere six days after a BLM supporter in Dallas had shot and killed five police officers and wounded seven
others — Obama hosted three BLM leaders at a lengthy White House meeting along with the legendary racist
anti-Semite, Al Sharpton. By then, Sharpton was well-established as "Obama's go-to man on race." Indeed, Obama had
addressed Sharpton's National Action Network on multiple occasions, lauding the organization for its "commitment to fight
injustice and inequality," and for doing work that was "so important to change America." He had also characterized Sharpton
as "a voice for the voiceless and ... dispossessed," and had praised Sharpton's "dedication to the righteous cause of
perfecting our union." From January 2009 through December 2014, Al Sharpton — the most visible racist anti-Semite
of the past generation — visited the Obama White House on 72 separate occasions, including 5 one-on-one meetings
with the president and 20 meetings with staff members or senior advisers. And the DNC had no problem with
any of this.
Jesse
Jackson: Electoral college must be abolished. The Rev. Jesse Jackson on Sunday [8/20/2017] gave a
strong endorsement to the movement for removing monuments to leaders of the Confederacy and called for the electoral college
to be abolished. Speaking at the Islamic Center of Southern California, Jackson blamed the electoral college system,
giving disproportionate influence to less populated states, for the 2000 and 2016 loss of Democratic presidential candidates
Al Gore and Hillary Clinton despite their winning the popular vote.
While
we're toppling offensive symbols, what about the Democratic Party? Al Sharpton just may be right about the need
to remove offensive statues from the American public way. I'd been somewhat torn on the idea of erasing history by
tearing down statues, even Civil War Confederate statues, since destroying public imagery and iconography isn't the kind of
thing Americans do. Actually, it's the kind of thing that ISIS does. But Sharpton, the noted race hustler, helped
me see things in a different way.
Dividing the White.
A rally in Virginia on Saturday intended to "Unite the Right" ended in chaos and bloodshed. The way events unfolded
suggests that the main battle plan for the powers that be in America has nothing to do with illusions such as "left" and
"right" — nah, instead, their primary goal appears to be Dividing the White. [...] The rally's planners had
jumped through every possible legal hoop to ensure that the rally would commence without a hitch. Once they were
issued a permit, it was revoked by the coffee-bean-colored Wes Bellamy, Vice-Mayor of Charlottesville. Wes never
seems to miss an opportunity to remind you of his blackness. Among the groups he has joined (and even led) include
100 Black Men of Central Virginia, Young Black Professional Network of Charlottesville, and Charlottesville/Albemarle
Alliance of Black School Educators. In case you missed it, Wes Bellamy wants you to know he's black.
No, Civil Rights
did not give Republicans the South. The Civil Rights Act passed because 27 of the 33 Republican senators
supported it — a higher percentage than Democrats did. (The difference is minuscule.) All 22 Democratic
senators from the South (as defined by the 11 Confederate states) opposed it — as did enough bigots like Bobby Byrd to
filibuster the bill as they had for decades. Johnson needed 67 votes to stop the filibuster. Republicans
delivered far more than the 23 votes he needed from then [sic]. Their reward was to be portrayed as racists.
The liberal fantasy is that in passing the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Democrats selflessly sacrificed all those white votes
in the Deep South. The reality is, Democrats kept the South and thanks to the Coting Rights Act of 1965, forced states to
create black majority districts. That racial gerrymandering — upheld by the courts — led to the
Congressional Black Caucus.
Al
Sharpton Criticizes Ivanka Trump with Worst Grammar You've Ever Seen! The Reverend Al Sharpton is attacking Ivanka Trump.
Even worse, he's supposed to be a gifted speaker. I don't see any indication of that, myself, but Democrats are falling over themselves
to christen terrible speakers on the left as being shining orators.
Jesse
Jackson back at Amazon stockholders' meeting, crusading for workforce diversity. The Rev. Jesse Jackson
was in Seattle this week pressing Amazon.com to make its workforce and leadership look more like the population of the
country. It's 2017, and much has changed since Jackson marched with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in the 1960s.
But some old problems remain unresolved, and access to good jobs is among them. Jackson, who's 75 now, can still get
into rooms that others can't and bring attention to issues that need to be addressed. That allows him to continue to
play a prominent role in advancing progressive causes.
The Most Asinine Claim
About the AHCA. If one takes seriously the wild characterizations of the American Health Care Act (AHCA) that
have appeared in the media since last week, the Republicans have transformed the House of Representatives from a branch of
the national legislature into a veritable abattoir. The GOP is not merely guilty of "consigning thousands of people
with serious illnesses to death," as one erstwhile news outlet put it, "the Republicans are taking health services away from
disabled children, women who give birth, and survivors of rape and sexual assault." And what has motivated the GOP to wreak
such carnage? Why, racism, of course.
What Ever Happened
to the Civil Rights Movement? If you're a Democrat, and your program is wealth redistribution — with a big cut
for yourself as a ruling middleman — it turns out that racism is a much better rationale than inequality for robbing selected
Peter to pay collective Paul.
The Greatest Threat to America Isn't
Islam — It's the Left. The left has found the great weakness of conservatives: their conscience and decency. When
someone accuses them of being racist or some other form of evil, their reflex is to apologize and appease. The more conservatives placate and
soothe, the louder the left screams racism — because it works. The cultural decay of our civilization will continue until conservatives choose
to stand up and say "enough."
Al
Sharpton still too busy to pay his taxes. MSNBC host and perpetual race agitator Al Sharpton certainly gets
around quite a bit. Any time there's any sort of Black Lives Matter protest or urban unrest with a race relations
twist, Sharpton seems to appear within hours as if by magic. So busy is the man's schedule that he apparently still
can't find time to sit down with an accountant and clear up more than a half million dollars in unpaid taxes which the IRS
has been pestering him about for some time now.
Axing
Wasteful EPA Program that Gave Leftist Groups Millions "Racist". Over the years, heaps of taxpayer dollars have filled the coffers
of leftwing groups — including some dedicated to helping illegal immigrants — that teach black, Latino and indigenous folks how to recycle, reduce
carbon emissions through "weatherization" and participate in "green jobs." The cash flowed freely through the EPA's special environmental
justice office, which the Trump administration plans to get rid of as part of a broader budget cut for the famously bloated agency. This
is great news for American taxpayers who were forced to fund this nonsense.
Nonprofits
Helping Illegal Immigrants Took $291 Million From Taxpayers. Taxpayers funded eight nonprofits that serve,
protect or advocate for illegal immigrants with more than $291 million between 2012 to 2016, according to an analysis of
federal spending data and tax documents by the Daily Caller News Foundation Investigative Group. The eight groups —
including at least one that endorsed Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton in 2016 — provide a variety of
support to illegal aliens, ranging from legal and social services to political advocacy. Ninety-four percent of the public
funds — or, nearly $274 million — came from the federal government, according to data obtained from
USAspending.gov and 990 tax forms.
Congressional
Black Caucus Foundation Received Over $500K in Taxpayer-Funded Gov't Grants. The Congressional Black Caucus
Foundation was awarded more than $500,000 in taxpayer-funded government grants since 2010, records show. Seven of its
leaders additionally paid themselves six-figure salaries, according to the group's most recent tax filings. The CBC
Foundation, a nonprofit that is separate from the Congressional Black Caucus, carries a mission of advancing "the global
black community by developing leaders, informing policy, and educating the public."
SPLC 2: The
Search for More Money. It was a bad week for the Southern Poverty Law Center, America's self-appointed
witch-sniffers-in-chief. For decades, the SPLC, despite its comic history of money-grubbing and out-of-control
vilification, has been treated by the mainstream media as the unquestionable authority about who the Bad Guys are.
Finally, however, doubts have been allowed to surface about an organization that is in reality America's richest hate
group (with financial assets of $302,800,000).
The
Southern Poverty Law Center Is A Joke, And This Proves It. The Southern Poverty Law Center, as Daily Wire's
Aaron Bandler wrote in [a recent] article, is "a leftist hack advocacy group which picks and chooses what standards to apply
to its labels, consistently turning a blind eye to leftist and pro-Democrat groups and individuals while targeting, often
unfairly, their enemies on the right." Over the past few days, SPLC continued to protect hard-left and Islamist radicals
in the name of the "progressive" cause by joining the chorus of left-wing organizations and leftist commentators in rushing
to the support of Linda Sarsour.
Mason
Weaver Has a Dream, Representative John Lewis Has a Nightmare. Mason Weaver, a former Black Panther, takes
issue with legendary civil rights activist Rep. John Lewis calling Trump an illegitimate president. In an
interview with Tucker Carlson on Fox News, Weaver skewers the hypocrisy of Lewis, and calls out Democrats as the party of the
Klan. Mr. Weaver has a dream, and it doesn't look anything like the nightmare created by John Lewis and company.
Lewis
skipped Bush inaugural too, said he was not president. It's a free country, and the nineteen (and counting)
members of Congress who are planning to boycott President-elect Trump's inauguration are certainly within their rights.
So even is Rep. John Lewis, D-Ga., who said over the weekend that Trump's election (or his presidency) is "illegitimate."
That doesn't make his comment true or honorable or helpful to the nation's well-being, but he is free to say it.
Al
Sharpton Confronted by Activists in Baltimore. Rev. Al Sharpton got an earful from activists when he
arrived in Baltimore to preach on Sunday [1/15/2017]. A group of men peppered the preacher with questions about his
activism in the black community in a Facebook Live video posted by Duane G. Davis. "They come to exploit tragedies and
collect money," Davis said about Sharpton and other high-profile liberal activists. "How much money is he going to get to
speak here?" One activist repeatedly asked Sharpton what he was doing to help young black men, telling Sharpton that
his past activism wasn't good enough.
John Lewis and the Congressional
Black Caucus make a mockery of the civil rights movement. It's not especially necessary for the president to be
inaugurated to align ideologically with those attending the ceremony; in fact, it says far more about America as a
constitutional republic that those of a different political party would be willing to attend. They're not supporting
the president so much as the system which has served us so well as a country. So when Rep. John Lewis (D-Georgia),
the former civil-rights icon — he became a hero to that movement after he was badly beaten during the march across
the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma in 1965 — declared he would be joining a boycott of Donald Trump's inauguration
ceremony, it was a disappointing sign that some of our elected officials don't quite grasp the ideals of the nation's founding.
Sorry,
but I do not concede absolute moral authority to John Lewis. The people who want to destroy the Trump
presidency demand that John Lewis, be awarded absolute moral authority (shades of Cindy Sheehan) for his public denial of the
legitimacy of the next commander-in-chief. [...] Already a leader of the left wing (SNCC) of the Civil Rights Movement, Lewis
had the fortune (bad and good) to be savagely beaten on the head by Alabama State Troopers (under the command of Democrat
Governor George Wallace), and today bears the visible scars. This sacrifice in a great and victorious cause, combined
with his position as a man of the left, built the armor of an unassailable hero around Lewis. The American left created
a claque around him, requiring any serious discussion of the man to include a disclaimer as to his heroic status and
infallibility. He became a valuable weapon: a voice that could present outrageous lies.
The AP
Spins Lewis vs. Trump. Start with the headline: "Trump unleashes Twitter attack against civil
rights legend." Most people only read headlines, and this one gives no clue that it was Lewis, not Trump, who
started the fight by saying on Meet the Press that Trump will be an illegitimate president. And Lewis is identified
as a "civil rights legend," not as a hyper-partisan Democratic politician, which is what he is.
Cory
Booker And The Party Of Robert Byrd. The Democratic bench is thin these days and perhaps Cory Booker thought
the crisis a Democratic Party decimated by the policies of Barack Obama would be a terrible thing to waste. In, as
Democrats might say, an unprecedented move, Cory Booker stepped to the plate as the designated character assassin of fellow
Sen. Jeff Sessions. It was a forum of great attention that perhaps Booker thought might launch a 2020 presidential
run like another freshman Senator, Barack Obama, whose 2004 Democratic Convention speech launched his presidential campaign.
Al Sharpton,
Betrayed by Protege, Faces Embarrassingly Low Turnout for Inaugural March. Al Sharpton will be marching on
Washington on Martin Luther King Day, just five days before President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration. It may be a
lonely walk. Sharpton's "We Shall Not Be Moved" march has piqued the interest of fewer than 1,000 people on Facebook,
as of publication. A rival event, the Women's March on Washington, had already secured 175,000 RSVPs, with an
additional 250,000 people saying they're interested in attending.
Obama
says racism in U.S. surfaces in 'violent opposition' to programs to help minorities. In an exit interview on
race relations during his two terms, President Obama said racism is evident to him when Americans suddenly voice opposition
to long-standing federal programs "as soon as African-Americans or Latinos are interested in availing themselves" of the
benefits. "I'm careful not to attribute any particular resistance or slight or opposition to race," Mr. Obama said
in the interview published Tuesday [12/12/2016] in The Atlantic.
Zumwalt:
Obama Used 'Fake News' to Sell the Iran Nuclear Deal. For those who have forgotten, in 1998, as the Monica
Lewinsky sex scandal reared its ugly head, Reverend Jesse Jackson offered President Bill Clinton his services as a spiritual
advisor. It would turn out the offer represented the height of hypocrisy by the right good-and-married reverend.
It was later learned, Jackson provided his services while quietly living under the cloud of having fathered an illegitimate
child months earlier. Apparently the lure of moving forward into the spotlight proved stronger for Jackson than the
pull of a guilty conscience restraining him. Keeping this Jackson "moment" in mind, Obama exhibited his own hypocritical
chutzpah. While his did not involve a sex scandal, U.S. national security would have fared better if it had.
Jesse
Jackson: Obama should pardon Hillary Clinton. Speaking at President Gerald Ford's alma mater, The
Rev. Jesse Jackson called for President Obama to issue a blanket pardon to Hillary Clinton before he leaves office, just
like Ford did for Richard Nixon. Stopping short of saying Clinton did anything wrong, Jackson told a large crowd of
University of Michigan students, faculty and administrators gathered at daylong celebration of his career that Obama should
short-circuit President-elect Donald Trump's promised attempt to prosecute Hillary Clinton for use of a private e-mail
server. "It would be a monumental moral mistake to pursue the indictment of Hillary Clinton," Jackson said.
He said issuing the pardon could help heal the nation, like Ford's pardon of Nixon did.
Jesse
Jackson calls for Obama to pardon Hillary Clinton before leaving office — even though he insists she hasn't done anything
wrong. Civil rights activist Jesse Jackson has urged Barack Obama to pardon Hillary Clinton to help heal the
country. Mr Jackson made the plea as he joined thousands of students in an anti-racism rally at the University of
Michigan on Wednesday. He told a crowd: 'In this election, voters voted for fear. I think hope will defeat
hate, but it's a battle.'
Al
Sharpton Promises Donald Trump 'a Fight for the Future of This Country'. Rev. Al Sharpton warned
President-Election Donald Trump to "saddle up your horse" because he's planning to spend the eight weeks leading up to
Trump's inauguration fighting any changes that could adversely impact communities of color — starting with a rally
at the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial on January 14. At a special edition of his Saturday gathering and
radio address at the Harlem headquarters of his National Action Network [11/12/2016], Sharpton announced his plans to march on
the on the monument in Washington, D.C. just two days before the official Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday and six days before
Trump's inauguration. He urged people to put pressure on the Senate to maintain the Affordable Care Act and to push back
on every proposed member of the Trump cabinet at every confirmation hearing.
Hillary
Says All Americans Are Guilty of Implicit Racism. The debate has been more of what we have heard for months
now, however, Hillary did call Americans racists. Hillary said during the debate tonight that it isn't just the police
that are racist... everyone has implicit bias and is racist! Hillary insists we have "systemic racism" in this
country. That will be a great attitude to have if she wants to start a race war.
Hillary's
Talk of 'Implicit Bias' Should Scare Every American. You're guilty and you don't know it. Sure, you think
you're a decent person who treats people fairly, judging them on the content of their character and not the color of the
skin. But let's face it: You're deluded. Especially if you happen to be white, you're biased and you don't
even know it. You're unaware of your own privilege, and of the extent to which your beliefs, speech, and even
mannerisms oppress people of color. It's time to confess. It's time to be re-educated. It's time to rid
yourself of your false consciousness. This is the message of the modern campus radical, of the diversity trainer, and,
increasingly, of the Democratic nominee for president, Hillary Clinton.
Hillary's Debate Lies.
Hillary Clinton repeated her incessant lie last night that the criminal justice system is infected with "systemic racism."
Race "determines" how people are "treated in the criminal justice system," she said. Blacks are "more likely [than whites]
to be arrested, charged, convicted and incarcerated" for "doing the same thing." Such a dangerous falsehood, should Clinton
act on it as president, would result not just in misguided policies but in the continued delegitimation of the criminal justice
system. That delegitimation, with its attendant hostility and aggression toward police officers, has already produced the
largest one-year surge in homicides in urban areas in nearly a half-century.
Asked
if cops are racist, Hillary says EVERYBODY is racist! Hillary went all in on the "Black Lives Matter"
narrative tonight [9/26/2016] when asked if she thought that police had "implicit bias" against blacks. Her answer was
that pretty much everyone is racist: [Video clip]
Clinton:
"Make America Great Again" Is Racist! The Big Dog was at his partisan worst this afternoon [9/7/2016]. [...] Clinton
claims to be an expert on racism by virtue of having grown up in Arkansas. I suspect there are a lot of Arkansans who would
like to say: get off our team.
The Ugly Truth
Of Leftist "Heroes". [Scroll down] MLK wasn't nationally known until Time put him on the cover of
their magazine. (Thanks, mainstream media!) It's odd that his name is still prefixed with Dr., since he
plagiarized much of his doctoral dissertation. As for the Reverend part, that too seems odd since his personal life
made Bill Clinton seem like a monk. He partied with booze and hookers on the SCLC's dime. Sometimes he'd beat
them — a "moral giant" indeed!
Hillary's
Long, Cozy Love Affairs with Racists. During her first presidential campaign eight years ago, Mrs. Clinton spoke
at an event held by Al Sharpton's National Action Network, where she crowed about the "long and positive relationship" she had enjoyed
with Sharpton and his organization. Noting that "I don't ever remember saying 'no' to them," Clinton vowed "to remain their partner
in civil rights" for as long as there was breath in her body. Sharpton, you may recall, is the vile, foul-mouthed black socialist
who has done more to poison race relations in America than virtually anyone other than Barack Obama. And nothing whatsoever has
changed in Mrs. Clinton's estimation of Sharpton in the years since then.
Al
Sharpton's daughter sues city over ankle injury she hiked with. The Rev. Al Sharpton's daughter admitted
in a damning legal deposition that she danced, pranced and jetted around to romance her beau after supposedly suffering
permanent damage to her ankle when she stumbled in a city pothole. Dominique Sharpton gave the deposition, a transcript
of which was obtained by The Post, in her $5 million lawsuit against the city — and it reveals startling new
details about her escapades following the injury. She admitted that she changed into party clothes and attended a
two-hour gospel concert in honor of her father's 60th birthday just hours after the incident at Broome Street and Broadway
on Oct. 2, 2014.
Al
Sharpton's daughter admits she went to concert hours after 'spraining ankle' on Soho sidewalk in $5m lawsuit deposition —
and has gone dancing in heels and even hiking since then. The Rev. Al Sharpton's daughter admitted she went
to a concert just hours after she tripped and sprained her ankle on a Soho sidewalk — during a deposition for her
$5 million lawsuit against New York City. Dominique Sharpton, 30, had demanded millions in compensation from the city
after claiming she sprained her ankle on uneven sidewalk in 2014, suffering 'permanent pain and mental anguish'.
Al
Sharpton Rewrites Crown Heights History, With Jews as Rioters. Al Sharpton has been a minor player in the Black
Lives Matter chaos, but returned to his divisive habits last weekend with an op-ed in the New York Daily News on the
25th anniversary of the Crown Heights riots, casting Jews as the aggressors. In his re-telling, the young black boy who
died tragically in a traffic accident involving the Lubavitcher Rebbe's motorcade, Gavin Cato, was a precursor to Michael
Brown, the black teen who attacked a police officer and was killed in Ferguson, Missouri.
This
Is What Happens When Sharpton, Holder Get Served Race War Lawsuit. Black Lives Matter advocates have been
served with a lawsuit accusing them of inciting a race war, but defendant Al Sharpton says he has tried to preach a message
of peace between blacks, whites and police officers. "There is substantial public record of me denouncing violence, a
race war, and even supporting police," Sharpton told the Daily Caller Wednesday. "I have even been giving money to
police killed by violence." He was referring to the 2015 shooting death of Harlem police officer Rudolph Holder. A
year earlier, two New York City officers were gunned down as they sat in their patrol car eating lunch by an assailant who
said on Instagram he was seeking revenge for the deaths of Michael Brown and Eric Garner at the hands of police.
Hillary,
The Black Lives Matter Candidate. Hillary Clinton's appalling address to black activists yesterday [7/18/2016]
suggests that she may be an even more fanatical supporter of the dangerous, violent Black Lives Matter movement than Barack
Obama. Clinton is clearly now the Black Lives Matter candidate. Spewing lies and half-truths, she has become
increasingly radical on the issue of race relations in recent months. The former secretary of state, U.S. senator,
first lady, and now presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, speaks warmly of those black criminals who kill police,
claiming that there are root causes that somehow at least partly justify those murderers.
Barack Hussein Obama
Officially Sued. A former prosecutor is suing not only Obama but Al Sharpton, Farrakhan and Holder as well. He says, they are
the ones responsible for inciting a race war, and they are the ones that should be held accountable for Dallas. It gets better. [...]
The War On Cops. There
is a ton of blame, more than enough to go around to the wide range of people and institutions that have contributed to these
disasters. In addition to the murderers who have killed people they don't even know, there are those who created the
atmosphere of blind hatred in which such killers flourish. Chief among those who generate this poisonous atmosphere are
career race hustlers like Al Sharpton and racist institutions like the "Black Lives Matter" movement. All such
demagogues need is a situation where there has been a confrontation where someone was white and someone else was black.
The facts don't matter to them. The same is true of the more upscale, genteel and sophisticated race panderers,
including the President of the United States.
NAACP
chief: 'Ensure every demonstrator is a vote'. Black Lives Matter activists need to "need to ensure that every
demonstrator is a vote" in the fall elections in order to win policy changes pertaining to police misconduct and
officer-involved shootings, according to the head of the NAACP. "To bring about the kind of change that we need, we
need to ensure that every demonstrator is a vote and that we to show up en masse and in the millions at the polls in
November," NAACP president Cornell William Brooks said on CBS' "Face the Nation" Sunday morning [7/10/2016].
Irony: Jesse Jackson accuses others of race-based political agitation.
Jesse
Jackson says Trump helped 'seed' the clouds of recent violence, notes change in rhetoric. Civil rights activist
Jesse Jackson on Sunday said Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump helped "seed these clouds" that led to the violence
seen across the country last week. Speaking on "Fox News Sunday," Mr. Jackson said the "deep divide" between
whites and blacks in America is only getting worse because of Mr. Trump's rhetoric, though he applauded the subdued tone
the billionaire real estate mogul took in the aftermath of last week's shootings. "When you do the birther movement
with the president, which is a dog whistle for a kind of anti-black [attack], the anti-Mexican, the deportation of 15 million
people, of families, disruption, anti-Muslim, that kind of rhetoric has helped to seed these clouds," Mr. Jackson said.
"I hope Mr. Trump will maintain the level of rhetoric" he used in his statement last Friday.
The Road to Dallas. [Micah] Johnson's
horrific attack on police is the most recent evidence of one of the worst divisions in our society, that between law enforcement
people and the civilians they are sworn to protect. That division has been created and is exacerbated daily by President
Obama and the rest of the pure-as-ivory-soap ideological liberals he has led for eight years. Obama has pushed American
blacks along the road to Dallas. The path he charted began in Cambridge, Massachusetts. In 2009, a Cambridge officer
saw a black man apparently trying to break into a house. After an argument with the man, who reportedly refused to step
outside to speak to him, the officer arrested Henry Louis Gates. Gates was a Harvard professor and one of Obama's personal
friends. Before he knew the facts, Obama said the Cambridge police "acted stupidly" and "...that there's a long history in
this country of African-Americans and Latinos being stopped by law enforcement disproportionately." At each instance since,
Obama has continued to widen the racial divide between black Americans and police.
Hillary
plays the race card on Dallas police massacre. Hillary Clinton has crafted her response to the slaughter of
Dallas policemen to exploit racial resentment and shore up her support among African-Americans. She needs Obama-levels
of turnout and to grab about 92% of the votes in order to win. She has had trouble whipping up enthusiasm among all
demographic slices of the electorate, and she apparently sees black anger at whites as just the thing to motivate voters to turn
out, and to quiz their friends, families, and neighbors as to whether they have voted on Election Day.
Hillary
Clinton: White people have to listen to 'legitimate cries' from blacks. Likely Democratic presidential
nominee Hillary Clinton on Friday [7/8/2016] said white people have to start listening to "legitimate cries" coming from the black
community, pointing out that she has said repeatedly on the campaign trail there needs to be more "love and kindness." "I will
call for white people like myself to put ourselves in the shoes of those African-American families who fear every time their children
go somewhere, who have to have the talk about how to really protect themselves when they're the ones who should be expecting
protection from encounters with the police," Mrs. Clinton said in an interview on CNN.
Obama's
false racism claims are putting cops' lives in danger. Hours before the murders of five police officers in Dallas, Texas, President
Obama was again spouting false claims about racism by the police. He sees racism whenever there is any disparity in outcomes, no matter
what the cause. Obama and others inflame passions, but take no responsibility, and instead use events to push for more gun control.
Yet, shouting racism can endanger the lives of police officers. The Dallas police chief tells us one of the shooters "wanted to kill
white people, especially white officers." After the Trayvon Martin case, there were numerous cases around the country of blacks attacking
whites and invoking Martin's name. Let's not forget that NYPD cops Rafael Ramos and Wenjian Liu were executed by a black man who was angry
about the shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo. Obama and his administration spoke out repeatedly on the Martin and Brown cases.
They repeatedly claimed racism was involved, but in fact there's no evidence of that in either case. Obama is also wrong, as he was on
Thursday [7/7/2016], to infer racism from higher arrest rates or prison-sentence lengths. "African Americans are arrested at twice the
rate of whites," he said. What he failed to note is that blacks commit murder at almost six times the rate whites do.
The Worst
Smear Site In America. The far-left Southern Poverty Law Center relentlessly promotes the Big Lie, wildly
popular in the media, that conservative Americans are racists and the real threat to the nation rather than Islamic
terrorists. The group claims the principal enemies of the American people are presumptive Republican presidential
nominee Donald Trump, conservatives like David Horowitz, and the Tea Party movement. The SPLC is a shamelessly
hypocritical leftist attack machine funded by radical speculator George Soros and a rogue's gallery of rich people and
established philanthropies that want to fundamentally transform America. The fabulously wealthy 501(c)(3) nonprofit has
an astounding one third of a billion dollars ($338 million) in assets, as well as investments in Bermuda and the Cayman
Islands, two offshore tax havens the Left loves to attack (but only when non-leftists stash cash there).
Hillary's
coterie of anti-Semites. [Scroll down] Other than Louis Farrakhan at the Nation of Islam, Professor Cornel West of Princeton might
be the signal anti-Semitic role model in black America. West brings academic gravitas to the role. On the one hand, West
plays the home boy race card with effect, at the same time vilifying Jews for "occupation and annihilation." West's
favorite media stooge is Tavis Smiley of PBS. Professor West and Smiley are often seen as an Islamophilia tag team, apologizing
for Muslims on the public dime. Anti-Semitism is now a prominent feature of black American culture nationwide. Professor
West and Smiley count Louis Farrakhan, NOI high priest, unapologetic misogynist, and Jew hater, as a touchstone in skin game circles.
Why
Dems Try to Break Black Hearts and Only Trump Can Fix It. This election cycle is dominated by Democrat
race-baiting as usual. Trump's massively popular nationalist platform to stop illegal immigration and suspend Muslim
immigration is labeled racist. What is new are perfidious Republican leaders and pundits rushing to join Democrats in
their false accusation against Trump. Democrats have called every Presidential candidate for decades racist. They
have to. Telling blacks that Republicans wish them ill keeps Democrats in power. They don't care about the damage
they are doing to the country and to black lives. Blacks are cannon fodder in the Democrat war for power. There
is something profoundly depressing and pathetic that until Trump, our Republican leaders have been willing to write off the
black vote and accept the Democrat poison that our party is made up of racist white people.
Michelle
Obama Pledges $100M of U.S. Tax Dollars to Educate Girls — in Morocco. FLOTUS must be unaware of all
the black kids in DC and Chicago that could really use $100M for their failing public schools, since her daughters attend the
super-fancy Sidwell Friends private school, where tuition is $34,268 a year. But that includes hot lunch! Truly, a bargain.
America's
Real Racists. We've all heard the venomous tirades of grievance mongers like Farrakhan, Sharpton, Jackson,
Mfume, and Bond. And we've all heard the stern lectures of buffoonish, self-congratulating white progressives who
dutifully remind us of the racism that allegedly sits at the very heart of our national character. But we've heard
precious little about the quiet dignity of Oseola McCarty and others like her.
Black
Lives Matter Activist Hijacks Orlando Shooting Vigil, Complains About White Attendees. A Black Lives Matter
activist hijacked the Orlando vigil held on Monday [6/13/2016], using the microphone opportunity to lambast the white
attendees who were mourning the terrorist attack that took place last Sunday in Florida. [...] The activist, who would better
be described as a protester, then went on to complain about racial tensions in America and belittle the audience that was
grieving for the loss of nearly 50 lives.
Rabbi
Turns Ali Service Into Political Pep Rally, Denounces 'Racist Police,' Says '1 Percent' Must 'Share Their Wealth'. Rabbi
Michael Lerner turned a mourning service for Muhammad Ali into a pep rally for left-wing causes on Friday [6/10/2016] in Louisville.
"How do we honor Muhammad Ali?" Lerner asked an audience of 15,000. "The way to honor Muhammad Ali is to be Muhammad Ali today."
He said this calls on of us to "tell the one percent who own 80 percent of the wealth of this country that it's time to share their
wealth," "close our military bases around the world," and "imprison those who authorize torture," among other demands. Lerner said
that "it's time to create a guaranteed income," "help create a Palestinian state," and rid society of "racist police" and "racist judges."
Al
Sharpton still too busy to pay his taxes. MSNBC host and perpetual race agitator Al Sharpton certainly gets
around quite a bit. Any time there's any sort of Black Lives Matter protest or urban unrest with a race relations
twist, Sharpton seems to appear within hours as if by magic. So busy is the man's schedule that he apparently still
can't find time to sit down with an accountant and clear up more than a half million dollars in unpaid taxes which
the IRS has been pestering him about for some time now.
Al
Sharpton, Joy-Ann Reid Remain Huge New York Tax Delinquents. MSNBC national correspondent Joy-Ann Reid has yet
to pay off her still open nearly $5,000 tax warrant that attracted a good bit of attention last year. Ditto for the
nearly $600,000 for two tax warrants that New York lists for MSNBC host Rev. Al Sharpton.
Hillary's
and Bernie's Friend: Al Sharpton Called for Murder of 'Crackers' and 'Pigs'. [Scroll down] To put this in
perspective, even the repugnant Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke never has gone so far as to encourage the murder of black
people. [...] Sharpton, in contrast to Duke, has been involved in at least two incidents of fatal racist and anti-Semitic
violence: the Crown Heights riots and the arson of Freddy's Fashion Mart. Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders are
therefore promoting, legitimizing, and mainstreaming a worse hate-monger than David Duke.
I
Want a President to Teach Liberals a Lesson. The eternal frustration of every conservative is the way the public square is
skewed in favor of liberals. "Right-wing extremism" is said to be a problem, but left-wing street riots are nothing but "peaceful
protest." We are to understand that anything less than a flat-out denunciation of loser David Duke and the pathetic remnants of
the Ku Klux Klan is disqualifying while the accomplished racist agitator, Reverend Al Sharpton, gets White House invitations and
fawning profiles in Vanity Fair.
Al
Sharpton Predicts Unrest In The Streets Once Obama Leaves Office. An in depth profile on civil rights activist
Al Sharpton contained a concerning prediction for America once Obama leaves office — the streets will be filled
with even more tension and unrest. According to Vanity Fair, Sharpton's "great fear" is that "everything it took so
much sweat and blood and sacrifice to achieve will be taken away", most notably the loss of the White House. "I worry that
the despair and emotions on the ground escalate. 'Cause not only do we feel we're not getting justice, we're not feeling
we're being assuaged by someone that we feel is at least sensitive to those needs. And I don't know that America is
ready or has adequately prepared to deal with that," Sharpton said.
A Movement Led by Sheep.
[L]eaders on the right generally lack courage, and this deficiency undercuts enthusiasm. Few are inclined to follow a spineless
functionary into battle. Alexander the Great explained it perfectly: an army of sheep led by a lion is more to be feared than
an army of lions led by a sheep. I cannot think of a single conservative leader or organization that could be, even slightly,
characterized as lion-like "courageous." Energizing the troops has come to mean enticing big donors to open their wallets. [...]
Al Sharpton and company know that the right almost universally has no stomach for being picketed by chanting rent-a-mob demonstrators
carrying homemade signs. Think about it: prestigious think-tanks with multi-million-dollar budgets, staffed by dozens of
Ph.D.s, totally intimidated by a bunch of semi-literates.
Hillary Clinton's War on Whites.
Hillary Clinton is sweeping the Democratic primaries across the South by capturing nearly all the black votes — a staggering
86 percent in South Carolina. She's doing it with poisonous lies designed to stoke racial resentment. Clinton routinely
tells blacks they are the victims of "systemic racism" and scolds whites for not demonstrating more "humility." She falsely claims
that discrimination is causing higher poverty rates and incarceration rates in the black community. There isn't a shred of evidence
to back up her claims. Even so, she gets a pass from the media.
Rangel:
'White Folks' At Brink of Destroying U.S.. Rep. Charlie Rangel (D-N.Y.) says, "we got white folks" that are "on
the brink of destroying" this country. Which is amazing at a time when "we have a president that looks like the slaves that
they brought over here." Speaking at the Rainbow Push Wall Street Economic Summit in New York earlier this month, Rangel said,
"It's really amazing, that at this point in time when we have a president that looks like the slaves that they brought over here,
when we had a black mayor, when we have a black attorney general, where state legislators all over are beginning to become of color,
we got white folks now that are prepared on the brink of destroying the whole d*** country, including the Supreme Court."
There's only one good reason to vote for Trump, and this is it.
Sharpton
Says He May Flee US If Trump Becomes President. If Donald Trump becomes president of the United States, Rev. Al
Sharpton may be booking a one-way ticket out of the country. That, at least, is what he told attendees at a Center for
American Progress Action event on Thursday [2/25/2016]. "If Donald Trump is the nominee, I'm open to support anyone [else],
while I'm also reserving my ticket to get out of here if he wins, only because he'd probably have me deported anyway," Sharpton said.
Al
Sharpton might 'get out of here' if Trump wins. Rev. Al Sharpton told attendees at a Center for American Progress Action
Fund event Thursday [2/25/2016] he would flee the country if Donald Trump won the election, in order to avoid being deported by Trump.
Sharpton, a Democrat, had positive feedback for many of the Republican presidential candidates until he got to Trump. "If Donald
Trump is the nominee, I'm open to support anyone [else], while I'm also reserving my ticket to get out of here if he wins, only because
he'd probably have me deported anyway," Sharpton told attendees, who responded in laughter.
Obama's
Real Legacy: Ten Ticking Time Bombs. [#9] A needless crime wave. The murder rate is going up again in a number of
American cities, in the wake of the riots in Ferguson and Baltimore — racially charged tragedies that Mr. Obama has tried to exploit
for partisan gain. Thousands of criminals are poised to hit the streets again, thanks to his end-of-term efforts to reduce the
national prison population. Criminal aliens continue to enter the country under his porous-borders policies.
The
System Worked, So Why The Protests In Chicago? The truth is the awful death is demeaned by another outbreak of
the nation's protest industry, one that unfortunately doesn't move itself overseas. The telling tip-off is the presence of
Jesse Jackson. Or Al Sharpton. And protest leaders' choice of target, in this case a nationally familiar tourist area
that — Oh, look! — is handy to all the local TV newsrooms. And it piggybacks on a traditionally slow
news day's fascination with holiday shoppers. A perfect public-relations storm for protesters.
Al Sharpton gives himself
a 71% raise thanks to de Blasio, Obama. It pays to have friends in high places. Al Sharpton gave himself a
71 percent raise last year after his National Action Network group drew a record $6.9 million in donations —
as the controversial cleric's association with Mayor de Blasio and President Obama lent him a newfound air of legitimacy. [...]
Also in 2014, Obama addressed NAN's annual convention, bringing along five of his Cabinet members. The Harlem-based nonprofit
collected $2 million more in 2014 than the year before, according to the latest financial records available.
Charlatans
and Sheep: Part II. [Scroll down] Another of the magic feats of political rhetoric in our time is to
blame "a legacy of slavery" for problems in the black community today. The repulsiveness of slavery immediately seizes our
attention, just as effectively as the attractiveness of a magician's scantily clad female assistant or the distraction of a flash
of light or a loud noise on stage. Here again, rhetoric distracts attention from questions about logic or evidence. The
"legacy of slavery" argument is not just a convenient excuse for bad behavior, it allows politicians to escape responsibility for
the consequences of the government policies they imposed.
Infiltrating
the #BlackLivesMatter Cult. [Scroll down] Many of these people are what Karl Marx might have called an
American version of the Lumpenproletariat. They are so hopelessly inept at life that they need to explain away their
failures. Their list of scapegoats is long. They blame imaginary systemic racial discrimination, markets, white people,
police, corporations, Republicans, insufficiently generous welfare programs, and whatever else trickles down day to day from their
intellectual betters in the academy. They need something to believe in. They need something to explain why their lives
[stink]. They hate America, and they want to burn it down. These are Obama's people. They're the Rev. Jeremiah
Wright's people. They're Minister Louis Farrakhan's people.
Sanders:
America Was Founded on 'Racist Principles'. Monday [9/14/2015] at at Liberty University in Lynchburg, VA,
Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) said America was founded on "racist principles," but as the
election of the first African-American President Barack Obama shows we have come a long way.
The
White Guilt-White Privilege Shakedown. Posturing is the foundation of politically correct shakedowns
by, for example, Al Sharpton. "For more than a decade, corporations have shelled out thousands of dollars in
donations and consulting fees to Sharpton's National Action Network. What they get in return is the reverend's
supposed sway in the black community or, more often, his silence." Posturing without substance is similarly
the foundation of the white guilt and white privilege shakedown scam.
Race Baiter: 'All Lives Matter' [is]
A 'Violent Statement'. In an interview with CNN's Wolf Blitzer Tuesday [8/18/2015], A #BlackLivesMatter activist condemned
the phrase "All Lives Matter" as a "violent statement" that undercuts black lives. Activist Julius Jones, one of the protesters who
interrupted the Bernie Sanders rally, first promised that such actions would continue, saying that they'll do "whatever it takes to get
black lives matter on the national agenda."
Marco
Rubio: The Newest Member of Black Lives Matter. Every politician has a go-to guy for black issues: A black
person to keep it real with the latest information from the streets about riots, rampage and rap. Senator Corey Booker's
guy is named T-Bone. Booker met T-Bone — a drug dealer — when Booker moved into The Ghetto of Newark
during his second year of Yale Law School. Booker started telling stories about T-Bone during his unsuccessful race for
mayor of Newark in 2002. [...] One problem: T-Bone was a dream. A fairy tale. A lie.
Sharpton
calls for black churches to lobby on Iran deal. Rev. Al Sharpton will push America's black churches to lobby in favor
of the Iran nuclear deal, a new report says. Sharpton is launching his push backing President Obama's pact with Tehran this weekend,
according to The Huffington Post. "I am calling on ministers in black churches nationwide to go to their pulpits Sunday and have
their parishioners call their senators and congressmen to vote yes on the Iran nuclear plan," he said Friday.
Please
Tell Black Lives Matter to Shut Up and Go Away! Born in 1856, Booker T. Washington was an amazing black educator,
orator, author, and adviser to U.S. presidents. Isn't it interesting that black men and women in America way back then were
achieving extraordinary success? Meanwhile, liberals and Democrats claim America is such a hellhole of racism that blacks need
cradle-to-grave welfare, affirmative action, lowered standards and numerous other special concessions to survive. Why am I
seemingly the only black person on the planet highly offended by the Left's bigotry of lowered expectations? Actually, I know
other blacks who share my frustration with blacks who think liberals and Democrats are their friends. Booker T.
Washington so succinctly and perfectly described black race profiteers, I am convinced he personally knew Al Sharpton.
Sharpton:
From Watts To Ferguson — 'All Violence' Was 'Sparked By Police Violence'. Wednesday [8/12/2015] on the "Tom
Joyner Morning Show," MSNBC's "Politics Nation" host Al Sharpton said all the riots and violence of the last 50 years,
from Watts to Ferguson, have been "sparked by police violence," and then driven by unemployment and poverty.
Hillary
Clinton Says All Cops and Judges are Racists Against Black Men. Hillary Clinton went on the Al Sharpton radio show on
Sunday [8/9/2015] and said that all cops are racist toward black men. During the conversation, she said, "I believe we need to
end the era of mass incarceration. If you compare arrest records in, you know, in charging of crimes, in convicting of crimes,
in sentencing for crimes, you compare African-America men to white men, it is as unfortunately clear as it could be that there is a bias
in favor of white men" who are arrested and charged. She goes on to praise Obama's task force on policing "roadmap for reforms."
Evidence
Doesn't Seem to Matter to #BlackLivesMatter Conspiracy Theorists. What happened to Sandra Bland? That
question has animated national news coverage and social-media outrage since July 13, when 28-year-old Illinois native
Sandra Bland, arrested outside Prairie View, Texas, was found dead in her cell at the Waller County Jail. Local
authorities reported that Bland committed suicide; her family insists otherwise. [...] Despite the autopsy, [Deray]
McKesson, self-appointed head of the Black Lives Matter movement's traveling infantry, along with thousands of his
social-media acolytes, maintains that Bland was murdered[.]
Update:
Grand jury decides against indictments in Sandra
Bland case. A grand jury has decided not to indict anyone in the case of Sandra Bland, whose death in police custody raised questions
of excessive force and the role of race. The grand jury met for more than eight hours Monday [12/21/2015]. "After reviewing all the
evidence in the death of Sandra Bland, a Waller grand jury did not return an indictment in the death of Bland, nor were any indictments returned
against any employee of the Waller County Jail," said Darrell Jordan, a special prosecutor handling the case.
Black
Lives Matter Founder Rants at Netroots: 'Burn Everything Down!'. The nascent Black Lives Matter movement
cannot claim that these statements were made by a few fringe members: the entire rant was orchestrated by Black
Lives Matter Founder Patrisee Cullors, who can be seen in the video enthusiastically pumping her fist and shouting along
with every incendiary statement. Nor is Black Lives Matter a fringe group; they have been embraced and given fealty
by the highest levels of the Democratic power structure.
Newly
Emerged Video Reveals The Real Agenda Of Radical 'Black Lives Matter'. [Martin]
O'Malley, the former Maryland governor, tried to appease members of the noisy and insistent
disruptors. But when he dared to tell the crowd that "all lives matter," he was caught in such a
liberal bind that he quickly backed away from that statement and publicly apologized for his supposed
insensitivity to the Blacks Lives Matter message. [...] As Breitbart notes of the profanity-laced
disruption of the event: "The shouted manifesto lays bare the theory behind the burning, looting,
and rioting that have transpired in recent months in Baltimore and Ferguson, and it also lays out the
group's agenda on current news events like immigration reform, transgender activism, and the fables
about the death of convicted criminal Sandra Bland that the group is spreading through the media."
Media
Begin Catching On To The Paid Activist DeRay McKesson. DeRay McKesson is one-half of
the most hate-filled, lying and manipulatively destructive force in the U.S. It was/is DeRay
McKesson and Shaun King who promoted all the lies from Ferguson, to Baltimore, to McKinney Texas and
Charleston South Carolina. And more recently the suicide of Sandra Bland.
DeRay
McKesson: Leader, Activist, and Unrepentant Conspiracy-Monger. Few activists in the
Black Lives Matter movement have received the sort of glowing accolades from the left as DeRay
McKesson. The Huffington Post has declared him "among the most widely recognized and respected
young black civil rights activists." Fortune declared him among the "World's Greatest
Leaders," The Los Angeles Times hailed him as one of the "new civil rights leaders," and
New York Magazine gave him a fawning profile. Even Hillary Clinton invited him to her
campaign (re-re-)launch. At the same time, few activists have provoked the ire of the right wing
to the extent DeRay has. His announcement that he would visit Charleston after the racist murder
of nine people spawned thousands of tweets with the hashtag #GoHomeDeray. National Review's
Ian Tuttle nicely summed up the gist of conservative opposition with a piece calling him "The Next
Generation of Race-Baiters" modeled after Al Sharpton.
What Obama Has Taught Us.
[Scroll down] Little need be said about racial relations. They have changed too. Here the Obama
legacy is twofold: The president has editorialized on the nation's racial fault-lines, both trivial and
fundamental — from the Professor Gates psychodrama to Trayvon Martin and Ferguson — and
usually gotten it quite wrong. No other president would take the case of a Harvard professor being arrested
for trying to break into a locked house (in fact, it was his own house, and he was quickly released) and turn
