North Charleston, South Carolina — Billionaire left-wing donor Tom Steyer promised a gathering of African American religious leaders Wednesday morning that he would push for “blacker” and “browner” leaders if elected president.
Steyer, who used those terms in describing his proposal for 12-year term limits for members of Congress, was one of several Democratic presidential candidates to address the National Action Network (NAN), a group run by Al Sharpton, at a breakfast for local ministers ahead of the state’s presidential primary on Saturday.
Sharpton has played an unprecedented role in the 2020 presidential primary. In 2008, then-Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) openly refused to accept Sharpton’s endorsement, given his
history of racist and antisemitic rhetoric.
But President Obama, needing allies within the black community, later
helped rehabilitate Sharpton’s reputation.
Today, Sharpton functions as a kingmaker within the Democratic Party, with candidates lining up for photo-ops with him, hoping for his praise and support.
Tuesday’s breakfast was no exception.
Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), who has cast herself as a moderate, appeared at the event. So, too, did former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg, who showed up despite fighting a cold that has forced him to cancel other campaign appearances.
Buttigieg acknowledged that he had made “mistakes” on racial issues in South Bend, and that he did not share the experiences of black Americans, but said he would always be willing to listen. He thanked Sharpton for his “leadership.”
Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) spoke about her commitment to criminal justice reform, including the abolition of private prisons.
Steyer claimed that his mother had contributed to the civil rights movement by working as a public school teacher. His call for reparations for slavery received a smattering of applause.
He praised Reps. Al Green (D-TX) and Maxine Waters (D-CA) for supporting calls to impeach President Donald Trump.
Frontrunner Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) was the last to speak, and received a stirring defense from Sharpton himself.
“Do not go by those who use the ‘socialist’ tag to separate us from what we need to do for this country … we are not that stupid,” Sharpton said.
Sanders recalled his arrest for protesting housing discrimination while a student at the University of Chicago. He recalled attending the March on Washington with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., in 1963, and noted that he had endorsed Jesse Jackson for president in 1988.
He, like Steyer, called President Donald Trump a “racist” who had to be removed from the White House.
New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg was the only candidate who was noticeably absent.

FINALLY, AN AMERICAN PRESIDENT STANDS
UP TO SHARPTON
An in-depth look at the “con man.”
July
30, 2019
Al Sharpton has been in the public limelight for just over 30
years – ever since he first burst upon the scene by promoting the fake story of
a white-on-black gang rape in upstate New York in 1987. But not until now has
America had a president with enough courage to tell the nation exactly what Sharpton
is: “Al is a con man, a troublemaker, always looking for a score,” said Donald
Trump on Monday. In response, Sharpton did the only thing he's ever
really learned how to do: He accused the president of harboring “a particular
venom for blacks and people of color.” What a surprise. “Trump says I’m a
troublemaker & con man,” Sharpton added. “I do make trouble for bigots.”
Let's take a brief look at some of the career highlights of this
self-anointed “troublemaker for bigots” shall we?
Supporting a Communist Front and Angela Davis
The February 9, 1971 edition of the Communist Party USA newspaper Daily World , noted that
Sharpton had recently addressed a White Plains, New York rally in support of a
CPUSA front group called The Committee to Free Angela Davis . At that
time, the Marxist revolutionary Davis was in prison for her role in abetting
the murder of a California judge.
Sharpton Praises the
Marxist Holiday, Kwanzaa
On December 24, 1971, the New
York Times quoted Sharpton praising Kwanzaa, the race-centered
winter holiday that had been recently established by Maulana Karenga , a Marxist
black nationalist who had once been arrested for assaulting and torturing two
women. The philosophy underlying Kwanzaa is known as Kawaida , a variation of
classical Marxism that also includes enmity toward white people.
Practitioners of Kawaida believe
that one's racial identity “determines life conditions, life chances, and
self-understanding” -- just as Marxists identify class as the determining
factor of one's life conditions.
The Tawana Brawley
Racial Hoax
Sharpton first entered America’s national consciousness on a large scale
in November 1987, when he injected himself into the case of a 15-year-old black
girl named Tawana Brawley, who claimed that she had been abducted and raped by
a gang of six whites in Dutchess County, New York. Despite a complete
absence of any credible evidence to support Miss Brawley’s story, Sharpton
assumed the role of special adviser to the girl. In the autumn of
1988, after conducting an exhaustive review of the facts, a grand jury released
its report showing beyond any doubt that the entire Brawley story had been
fabricated, and that at least $1 million of New York taxpayers’ money had been
spent to investigate a colossal hoax.
The Central Park
Jogger Case
In April 1989, a 28-year-old white woman, dubbed the “ Central Park jogger ,” was
brutally gang-raped and nearly beaten to death in New York’s Central Park by a
group of black and Hispanic teenagers. Despite the defendants’ graphic and
detailed confessions, which were captured on videotape and delivered mostly in
the presence of their parents or guardians, Sharpton insisted that the boys
were innocent victims of “a fit of racial hysteria” that was sweeping the criminal-justice
system and all of American society. Charging that the jogger’s boyfriend was
the real rapist in the case, Sharpton organized protests outside the courthouse
where the five suspects were being tried, chanting, “The boyfriend did it!” and
smearing the victim as a “whore!” All five suspects were convicted for their
involvement in the crime and were sentenced to prison terms ranging from 5 to
13 years. Their convictions would later be overturned in 2002 when another man,
who was already serving a life prison sentence for other felonies,
confessed to having committed the 1989 rape in Central Park. But there was
never any doubt that all five of the original defendants had been intimately
involved in the brutalization of not only the young woman, but of several other
victims in Central Park that same night.
Racial Slurs Against
Black Political Adversaries
In the early 1990s, Sharpton derided moderate black politicians with
close ties to the Democratic Party as “cocktail-sip Negroes” or “yellow ni**ers.”
The Anti-Semitic Riots
in Crown Heights
In the summer of 1991, Sharpton injected himself into the unrest that followed
an August 19 incident where a Hasidic Jewish driver had accidentally run over
and killed a 7-year-old black boy named Gavin Cato in the Crown Heights section
of Brooklyn, New York. Reporter/columnist Jeff Dunetz wrote that immediately
after the child’s death: “A false rumor began to spread that the Hasidic
ambulance crew had ignored the dying black child in favor of treating the
Jewish men. This falsehood was later used by Al Sharpton to incite the crowd.”
Efraim Lipkind, a former Hasidic resident of Crown Heights who
had witnessed the riots of 1991, stated the following in a July 1994 sworn
deposition: “Then we had a famous man, Al Sharpton, who came down, and he said
Tuesday night, kill the Jews, two times. I heard him, and he started to lead a
charge across the street to Utica.”[1] According to the New York Times , more than
250 neighborhood residents went on a rampage that first night, mostly black
teenagers, many of whom were shouting “Jews! Jews! Jews!” Three hours after the
tragic crash, 29-year-old Australian Jewish scholar Yankel Rosenbaum was
attacked by a gang of black teens who stabbed him to death. All told, Crown
Heights was engulfed by race riots for three days and nights. Sharpton
reacted to the chaos by repeatedly shouting the mantra, “No justice, no
peace!” “We must not reprimand our children for outrage,” he declared, “when it
is the outrage that was put in them by an oppressive system.”
Sharpton Derides Mayor
Dinkins As a “Ni**er Whore”
During the administration (1989-93) of New York City mayor David Dinkins (an
African American), Sharpton angrily denounced Dinkins
(when the latter was unsupportive of Sharpton’s activism) in the following
terms: “David Dinkins, you wanna be the only ni**er on television, only ni**er
in the newspaper, only ni**er that can talk. Don’t cover them, don’t talk to
them, ’cause you got the only ni**er problem. ‘Cause you know if a black man
stood up next to you, they would see you for the whore that you really are.” ( Click here for
audio.)
On another occasion, Sharpton referred to Dinkins as “that
ni**er whore turning tricks in City Hall.”
The Racist Kean
College Speech
In 1994,
Sharpton delivered an incendiary speech at New Jersey’s Kean College, where he
said: “White folks was in the cave while we [blacks] was building empires … We
built pyramids before Donald Trump ever knew what architecture was … we taught
philosophy and astrology and mathematics before Socrates and them Greek homos
ever got around to it.”
The Kean College speech also featured Sharpton explaining that America’s
founders consisted of “the worst criminals, the rejects they sent from Europe …
to the colonies.” “So [if] some cracker,” he continued, “come and tell you
‘Well, my mother and father blood go back to the Mayflower,’ you better hold
you pocket. That ain’t nothing to be proud of, that means their forefathers was
crooks.” Sharpton later defended his use of the word “cracker,” calling it
merely a colloquial term used to describe a certain kind of equal-opportunity
bigot: “It’s certainly not a racist term and certainly not an anti-Semitic
term,” said Sharpton, “because a cracker hates [both] Jews and blacks.”
The Deadly Boycott of
Freddy’s Fashion Mart
In 1995, Sharpton led his National action Network in a racially charged
boycott against Freddy’s Fashion Mart, a Jewish-owned business in Harlem. The
boycott started when Freddy’s owners announced that because they wanted to
expand their own business, they would no longer be subletting part of their
store to a black-owned record shop. The street leader of the boycott, Morris
Powell, was also the head of Sharpton’s “Buy Black” Committee. (In the
1970s, Powell had been confined to a mental hospital after
he had attacked a police officer with a lead pipe while shouting, “I am going
to kill you, pig.” He eventually escaped from that hospital and, in the eighties , went on trial for
breaking a Korean woman’s head during another protest.)
Powell and his fellow anti-Freddy’s protesters repeatedly and menacingly told
passersby not to patronize the “crackers” and “the greedy Jew bastards [who
are] killing our [black] people.” Some boycotters openly threatened violence
against whites and Jews––all under the watchful, approving eye of
Sharpton, who referred to the proprietors of Freddy’s as “white interlopers.”
The subsequent picketing became ever-more menacing in its tone until one of the
participants eventually shot (non-fatally) four whites inside the store and
then set the building on fire––killing seven employees, most of whom were
Hispanics.
In the aftermath of that atrocity, Kareem Brunner, a black security guard
employed by Freddy’s, testified to the State Supreme Court that he personally
had heard the boycotters say such things as: “Kill the crackers”; “Get the Jew
bastards”; “This block is for blacks only”; and “Get the Jew owners out.”
Appearance at a
Socialist Scholars Conference
In 1998 Sharpton was a featured speaker at
the Socialist Scholars Conference in New York.
Speaker at the Million
Youth March
Along with the notorious anti-Semites Malik Zulu Shabazz and Khalid Abdul Muhammad ,
Sharpton co-organized an
infamous September 5, 1998 “Million Youth March” which was held in
Harlem, New York and was sponsored by the New Black Panther Party . The
event drew about 6,000 people and ended in clashes between the attendees
and city police. Just prior to the rally, Shabazz
had threatened to kill any police officers who might be tempted to
“interfere” with the proceedings. Then, in his address to the marchers,
Shabazz stated: “The only solution any time there is a funeral in the
black community, is a funeral in the police community.” “I don’t care what the
Jews say,” he added. “You [blacks] are the only people that have been in
bondage for over 400 years. You are the true chosen people of God, and it is
not the so-called Jew.” Sharpton, in his own remarks to the crowd,
praised former Nation of Islam leader Elijah Muhammed as well as
Malcolm X, Louis Farrakhan, and Khalid Abdul Muhammad.
“Redeem the Dream”
Rally
In August 2000, Sharpton held a “Redeem the Dream” rally at the
Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC, where one of the featured speakers
was Malik Zulu Shabazz . At
that event , Shabazz called on black
young people, including “gang members,” to unite against their “common enemy” —
“white America” and its allegedly racist police departments. He also
articulated a “black dream that when we see caskets rolling in the black
community … we will see caskets and funerals in the community of our enemy as
well.”
Sharpton’s Closeness to Khalid Abdul Muhammad
In February 2001, when Khalid Abdul Muhammad died in a hospital as a result of
a brain aneurysm he had suffered, Sharpton was at Muhammed’s side. He then
gave Muhammad’s family $10,000 to help cover his funeral expenses. Among the
more noteworthy things Muhammad had said during his career as an activist:
He
said that Jews had provoked Adolf Hitler when they “went in there, in
Germany, the way they do everywhere they go, and they supplanted, they
usurped.”
He
declared that blacks, in retribution against South African whites of the
apartheid era, should “kill the women,…kill the children,…kill the
babies,…kill the blind,…kill the crippled,…kill the faggot,…kill the
lesbian,… kill them all .”
He
praised Colin Ferguson, a black man who had shot some twenty white and
Asian commuters (killing six of them) in a racially motivated 1993
shooting spree aboard a New York commuter train, as a hero who possessed
the courage to “just kill every goddamn cracker that he saw.”
He advised blacks that
“[t]here are no good crackers, and if you find one, kill him before he
changes.”
The Duke Lacrosse Case
In March 2006, a black stripper accused three white
members of the Duke University lacrosse team of having beaten, raped and
sodomized her during an off-campus party. These charges triggered an
instantaneous eruption of outrage among left-wing civil-rights activists.
Sharpton, for his part, declared that these “rich white boys” had attacked a
“black girl,” and warned that if arrests were not made immediately, there would
be no peace. He further claimed that “this case parallels Abner
Louima, who was raped and sodomized in a bathroom [by a New York City police
officer] like this girl has alleged she was…. and just like in the Louima case,
you have people here saying she fabricated it….” It later became evident,
however, that the plaintiff’s charges were indeed entirely fabricated, and all
charges against the defendants were dropped.
Disparaging Mormonism
When Mitt Romney, a Mormon, ran unsuccessfully for the 2008 Republican
presidential nomination, Sharpton said : “As for the one Mormon
running for office, those who really believe in God will defeat him anyways, so
don’t worry about that; that’s a temporary situation.”
Praising the
Council on American-Islamic Relations
In September 2012, Sharpton was a guest
speaker at the annual fundraising
banquet of the Hamas -linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), where he called CAIR “one of the most important
civil-rights organizations in the United States today.” Also addressing that
same convention was Siraj Wahhaj , an
unindicted co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. Two years
later, Sharpton keynoted the 2014 incarnation
of this same CAIR event.
Sharpton Derides Black
Political Adversaries As “Negroes”
In June 2016, Sharpton led a rally at his
National Action Network headquarters in support of black Assemblyman Keith
Wright, who at that time was running in a Democratic primary election as part
of his quest for the House of Representatives seat that would soon be
vacated by the retiring congressman Charles Rangel . At the
rally, Sharpton derided Wright’s primary opponents, who also were black,
in terms suggesting that he viewed them as race traitors: “You’re supposed to
be attracted to these Negroes you ain’t never seen before,” said Sharpton. “I
mean, they must have a laboratory to just create these Negroes.”
Conclusion:
President Trump Was 100 Percent Right
In summation, it is clear that President Trump's assessment of Sharpton was
entirely accurate. Sharpton is indeed a “con man” and a “troublemaker.” In
fact, those words are far more charitable than a disgusting reprobate like him
deserves.

Al Sharpton Is Not a Civil-Rights Hero
He’s made a career of inciting violence and
vomiting lies. And Democrats have cheered him on
By KYLIE SMITH
I imagine David Duke being a
regular, esteemed guest and former honored host on Fox News Channel. Imagine
every Republican presidential candidate scrambling to praise him whenever he’s
in the news. Imagine David Duke being given a prime speaking slot at the
Republican National Convention or President Trump welcoming him to the White
House and openly soliciting his support. Imagine Duke appearing on White House
visitor logs more than 70 times during Trump’s administration.
Imagine all of this and you’ll have some idea of how the right
and even, I think, the center of American political thought reacts to seeing Al
Sharpton continue to be cosseted by the Democratic party and its allies in the
media. Sharpton should long ago have been ruled out of bounds.
Employing the morally disastrous logic that the enemy of your
enemy is your friend, the Democrats have allowed President Trump to troll them
into extolling Sharpton. Trump is incorrect about many things, but he fairly
described Sharpton as a racist. Sharpton is a “con man, a troublemaker, always
looking for a score,” Trump tweeted. “Hates Whites & Cops!” That’s a lot
closer to the truth than the framing of Democrats, who bent the knee to
Sharpton as though he were some sort of civil-rights hero rather than a
huckster.
Sharpton holds the position of America’s Senior Spokesman for
Civil Rights only because it’s been some time since he’s done anything so
egregiously contemptible that it made the front page; the Left simply assumes
short memories have sanitized Sharpton’s reputation. I almost wrote
“inflammatory reputation,” but that word might be too literal given the arson
attack that followed one of his most notorious hate campaigns.
All we want to
say is what Jesus said: If you offend one of these little ones, you got to pay
for it. No compromise, no meetings, no coffee klatch, no skinnin’ and grinnin’.
For extra incendiary effect, he urged the crowd to think of Jews
as “diamond merchants” responsible for apartheid in South Africa, and he
marched at the head of an angry group of demonstrators on the Jewish sabbath.
Rioters subsequently murdered Yankel Rosenbaum, a Jewish youth, in retaliation.
Twenty years later Sharpton issued a watery not-quite apology in the form of
a Daily News op-ed.
Four years later, in 1995, Sharpton inflamed tensions on
Harlem’s 125th Street that culminated in the murders of seven people in an
arson attack. The owner of the building in dispute was actually a black
Pentecostal church, whose leaders had asked a Jewish tenant to evict a black
subtenant, who enlisted the aid of Sharpton and other race-baiters to whip up
street protests. At one such demonstration, Sharpton shouted,
There is a
systemic and methodical strategy to eliminate our people from doing business
off 125th Street. I want to make it clear . . . that we will not stand by and
allow them to move this brother so that some white interloper can expand his
business.
A fellow protest leader said, “We’re going to see that this
cracker suffers. Reverend Sharpton is on it.” One protester, wielding a gun,
entered the store in December, crying, “It’s on now, all blacks out!” He set
fire to the store and killed seven before shooting himself dead. Sharpton
didn’t apologize.
It can hardly be stated often enough that the reason Sharpton
first came to prominence was for promoting a vicious lie. In 1987, Tawana
Brawley, a black upstate New York teen who wished to conceal from her father
the fact that she had run away from home, concocted a story about being raped
for four days by six white men, smeared with feces that spelled out racial
slurs, and left in a dumpster. At the time, hate-crime hoaxes were all but
unknown, and New York was still reeling over a genuine hate-crime attack, of a
black youth in Howard Beach, Queens. After a jury ruled that the Brawley case
was a hoax, state supreme-court justice S. Barrett Hickman wrote, “It is
probable that in the history of this state, never has a teenager turned the
prosecutorial and judicial systems literally upside-down with such false
claims.” A local district attorney accused by Sharpton of being one of
Brawley’s attackers, Steven Pagones, lost his job. It took him ten years to
carry out and win a defamation action against Brawley, Sharpton, and another civil-rights
activist. Sharpton never apologized for any of this.
Hatred is Hatred, whether from the Left or Right
The
Reverend Not So Sharpton is not considered a hater. He was much
sought after by 12 of the Democrat presidential
candidates ,
who made the pilgrimage to his humble abode to kiss his ring.
When
it was time to renew his television show, his credentials were examined (but
the ratings were ignored), and yes, he was qualified because he is still
black. That seems to be the reason Al is a television
star. Al is paid $500,000 annually by MSNBC for his television
work, and he pays himself over $200,000 from his civil rights non-profit
organization.
You
might think a television star with a net worth of up to $5 million and
annual income of over $700,000 could pay his bills, but Al still owes $4.5 million in
state and federal taxes, and he often forgets "to pay travel agencies,
hotels, and landlords," according to the records. In 2015, Al
paid almost $2 million on his back taxes.
In
2004, Al bought himself a Rolls-Royce Phantom for his
50th birthday. That is the most expensive production car in the
world, with a base price of $475,000.
That
is one Baptist who was not held under water long enough!
Just
kidding, but he is not my kind of Baptist.
A
black killer in Dallas who killed five police officers and injured 14 other
innocent people said, "I want to kill white people, especially white
cops." When asked if the shooting should be considered a hate
crime, President Obama said, "It's hard to know what his motives
are." Can't Obama understand clear English? The
killer was a hater, and his race or political position did not
matter. By being a defender of hate, does that make Obama a hater?
It
seems hate is identified depending on the hater and the hatee.
A
French rapper named Nick Conrad has a song titled
" Hang Whites! " that declares,
"I enter day care centres, I kill white babies, Grab them quickly and hang
their parents, Take them apart to pass the time." In one scene,
the rapper and an associate drag a white person along a street and kick him in
the head. The lyrics include calls to kill white people and their
children.
That's
hate by a self-described "black artist, Parisian, proud sophisticate"
— or more precisely, a French jerk who shot to fame with his hate-filled
"song."
Thaddeus
Matthews, Memphis disc jockey, interviewing Charlotte Bergmann, a black,
female conservative Republican candidate for Congress, called her a
"token negro" and "curly-haired nigga." He
added, "I'm so sick of your s---, yourself, and I'm about to put
your a-- up outta here," he said. "You are a token
negro that white folk have control over." As she got up to
leave, she tried to shake his hand, and he refused, saying, "I don't need
to shake your hand. I'm scared because some of that whiteness might
rub off on me."
Thad,
the black hater of whites, is still a disc jockey in
Memphis. Charlotte won her primary but lost in the 2018 general
election.
The
mother of Michael Brown (the teen thug who was killed by a police officer in
Ferguson after Brown tried to take the officer's gun) is running for city
council! But Momma's comments will haunt her. She wrote
on social media after two police officers were shot, "If my FAM woulda got
JUSTICE in August maybe those two comps wouldn't have got shot LAST
NIGHT..." Also, "F--- THEM 2 COPS...DON'T GOT NO SYMPATHY
FOR THEM OR THEY FAMILIES…Aint no FUN when the Rabbit got the GUN."
That
too is undisguised, unreasonable, and uncontrolled hate and indicates a problem
in public education.
Maggie
Gallagher cited a book that
expresses extreme hatred toward conservative Christians in America who
"tend to hold relatively high levels of social power." So Many Christians,
So Few Lions: Is There Christianophobia in the United States? was authored by
George Yancey and David A. Williamson, who asked people about conservative
Christians. "'I want them [conservative Christians] all to die
in a fire,' said one man with a doctorate[.] ... 'The only good Christian is a
dead Christian,' said another man with a doctorate. 'I abhor them
and I wish we could do away with them,' said a woman with a master's
degree. 'A tortuous death would be too good for them,' said a
college-educated man. 'They should be eradicated without hesitation
or remorse,' said an elderly woman with a master's degree."
Hate
is not defined by education, race (and yes, of course blacks can be racists),
religion, national origin, politics, or financial status.
"Look
at thus [sic] chorus of entitled white men justifying a serial rapist's
arrogated entitlement. All of them deserve miserable deaths while
feminists laugh as they take their last gasps. Bonus: we castrate
their corpses and feed them to swine? Yes." This was
so eloquently spoken by white Georgetown University professor Christine Fair . Chrisy is no longer
teaching at Georgetown; she is "on leave."
No
sane person will defend hate, but many haters use hate as a weapon and often go
into battle with Christian conservatives. Since the progressive
cannot defend his castle in ruins (liberalism), he fires the only bullet in his
possession: "You're a hater." That is supposed to settle
the argument in favor of progressives!
Pseudo-intellectuals
like Georgetown's Michael Eric Dyson said after George Zimmerman was acquitted in the killing of
Trayvon Martin that it would be a good thing for more white children to be
murdered so Americans could better understand racism. Mike is also a
Baptist preacher, but not a historical or biblical Baptist, for sure.
Sarah
Jeong is a member of the New York Times editorial
board. She wrote: "Dumba-- f------ white people marking up the
internet with their opinions like dogs pissing on a fire
hydrant." Also, "Are white people predisposed to burn
faster in the sun, thus logically only being fit to live underground like
groveling goblins[?]" Finally Sarah's "White men are
b-------"; "#CancelWhitePeople"; "oh man it's kind of sick
how much joy I get out of being cruel to old white men" and "f---
white women lol."
Sarah
is still with the Times!
According
to a report from Newsweek,
Trinity College professor Johnny Eric Williams is making waves
again. Breitbart News reported in June
2017 that Williams had argued that first responders should have let
Representative Steve Scalise die after he was shot during a practice for the
congressional baseball game. Williams also shared a blog post by an
anonymous author that asked black people to withhold life-saving help from
white people in need.
In
a recent social media post, Williams wrote that "whiteness is terrorism[].
... If you see them [whites] drowning. If you see them in a burning
building. If they are bleeding out in an emergency
room. If the ground is crumbling beneath them. If they are
in a park and they turn their weapons on each other: do nothing," the post
read.
Of
course, hatred is hatred whether from the Left or right or in the middle;
however, all the haters quoted today have been from far out in left field.

Rev. Al
Sharpton received more than $1 million from the National Action Network (NAN)
in 2018, tax filings reportedly show.
Sharpton
was paid $1,046,948 by the
non-profit, and he also got “a $324,000 salary — 32% higher than his 2017 pay —
in addition to a $159,596 bonus and $563,352 in ‘other compensation,'”
according to the New York Post .
The report continued:
The Harlem-based nonprofit — which Sharpton controls as
president and CEO — said the extra cash was to make up for the years from 2004
to 2017 when he didn’t get his full pay. NAN said it hired an executive
compensation firm that determined the good reverend was owed $1.252 million —
but he was generously willing to take $500,000 less.
“Fifteen years, you are talking about since 2004 when I came
back after running for president,” Sharpton commented. “For anybody else it
would be laughable.”
The reverend also claimed that, like anyone else, he deserved
the raise.
“It’s a six-day-a-week job and several hours a day and when [the
compensation firm] compared it to other companies, other nonprofits, that’s the
salary that they would get.”
Saturday,
NAN said in a press release that
the organization experienced strong financial support during 2018, and it
anticipated the same for 2019.
Sharpton posted the announcement to his Twitter account.
“National Acton Network (NAN) is reporting that donations in
2018 increased by approximately a million dollars from 2017, helping the organization
to expand programmatic initiatives in technology and voter engagement, while
also boosting NAN staffing across the country,” the statement read.
The release continued:
Finally, the revenue from Rev. Sharpton’s birthday has already generated
hundreds of thousands of dollars for NAN, and when a final tally is made, the
Board is confident it will exceed in one-year what they put up for his life
rights in ten-years. This doesn’t include the revenue they will get for use of
his historic photo archives and other items for a documentary, as well as
commitments for a one-person play and more.
Despite his
recent pay raise, Sharpton reportedly still owes $698,470.99 in back taxes
to the state of New York for three of his companies, according to the Post .
