President Biden said of desegregating schools in 1977 that it would cause his children to “grow up in a racial jungle.” In May 2020, Biden, appearing on a radio show made the now infamous statement that if they were unsure of whether to vote for him or Trump, then, “you ain’t black!” The Democrats have manipulated race so long that they take the black vote for granted.

On the topic of immigration, she added, “During her lifetime, my aunt Coretta Scott King spoke about immigration coming in, and it would displace ‘negroes,’ or blacks, as we were called back then. And she even wrote about that. My uncle, Martin Luther King, Jr., spoke about immigration as well.

THE DEMOCRAT PARTY HAS NEVER DONE ANYTHING FOR BLACKS EXCEPT GIVE THEIR JOBS TO 'CHEAP' LABOR ILLEGALS. NO PANDERING IS GOING TO CHANGE THOSE FACTS

LEAVE THE JEWS ALONE AND GO FIX BLACK AMERICA!!!

Black Lives Matter Self-Identifies as Black Nationalist

By Civis Americanus

BLM has self-identified as a Black nationalist entity, which underscores the need for the Republican Party to focus on the ties between this entity and the Democrats. (MORE BELOW)

BLACKS ARE THE MOST VIOLENT SUBCULTURE IN THE WORLD!

On May 25, 2020, a Black man who’d ingested huge quantities of illegal drugs died while a White cop restrained him as an angry crowd threatened. Democrats seized this incident as an opportunity to reclaim the White House and dominate government by racially dividing the nation.

https://mexicanoccupation.blogspot.com/2022/06/mexifornia-reparations-for-blacks-when.html

Let me be blunt. Throwing more money at Blacks will make virtue-signaling White leftists feel a little more virtuous. It will not help those Blacks who are sinking into a morass of poverty, crime, abuse, and despair. The only thing that will change is when they stop looking for reparations (even arguably deserved ones) and start repairing their broken communities. ANDREA WIDBURG

DNC chair was on board of black nationalist, anti-Semitic hate group

By Civis Americanus

The Democrat left has shown clearly where it stands by appointing former Black Lives Matter board member Minyon Moore to chair the 2024 Democrat National Convention. The reference adds that Moore was also CEO of the Democrat National Committee. This shows that hate doesn't just have a home in the Democrat party; it has a mansion there.

While I can find absolutely no evidence that Moore herself ever expressed black nationalist or anti-Semitic views, or support for violence against law enforcement professionals, she was on the board of an organization that did. "She is also on the Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation's board of directors." Further research suggests she left BLM in May 2022, but the bottom line is that she was in fact a director of a black nationalist and anti-Semitic organization that has expressed support for domestic terrorists who murdered law enforcement professionals. This needs to become a front-and-center talking point in 2024. These three accusations — (1) black nationalism, (2) anti-Semitism, and (3) support for domestic terrorists — require substantiation with objective evidence that the reader can confirm for himself.

The Black Lives Matter website says, "Second, this property has served as a safe haven to protect the leaders of our Black nationalist movement." Black nationalism advocates, among other things, "a separate self-governing Black nation." The Southern Poverty Law Center says of white nationalists, "Their primary goal is to create a white ethnostate." It's the same excrement, namely racial separatism, from two different rectums, and it has absolutely no place here because the only nation between Canada and Mexico is the United States.
Patrisse Cullors called on her listeners to "step up boldly and courageously to end the imperialist project that's called Israel" while speaking in her capacity as BLM's leader. The link to the video and audio is available at the referenced site (New York Post).
- The Anti-Defamation League, which is anything but a right-wing organization, says, "One area in which ADL has seen a growth of antisemitism is within elements of the political left. This often takes the form of anti-Zionism, a movement that rejects the Jewish right to self-determination and of Israel to exist as a Jewish state[.]"
- The International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) defines as anti-Semitic "[d]enying the Jewish people their right to self-determination, e.g., by claiming that the existence of a State of Israel is a racist endeavor."
- If we put Cullors's statement, while speaking in her capacity as BLM's leader, side by side with these definitions, it is reasonable to conclude that BLM is an anti-Semitic hate group. This also is far from an isolated incident. The American Jewish Committee reported, "This false equivalence appeared in demonstrations in the summer of 2020 when protesters chanted 'Israel, we know you, you murder children, too' (see blood libel)." Here are video and audio of BLM marchers accusing Israel of murdering children, although they admittedly did not add that the Jews then use the blood of the children in question to make matzos.
- Temple University professor Marc Lamont Hill added (emphasis is mine), "They don't want to just nation-build, but they want to world-make, and so Black Lives Matter, very explicitly is talking about the dismantling of the Zionist project, dismantling of the settler-colonialist project, and very explicitly embracing BDS on those grounds."
Black Lives Matter has often glorified Assata Shakur (Joanne Chesimard), who is on the FBI's Most Wanted List for murdering a law enforcement professional. Here they are on Twitter (now X): "In the words of Mama Assata Shakur: 'We must love and protect one another.'"
- Here are Patrisse Cullors, Alicia Garza, and Opal Tometi venerating their "beloved Assata Shakur" while stipulating that they have shut down malls.
- I reported previously that Cullors also put her support behind convicted Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) terrorist Rasmea Odeh, who murdered two Jews with a bomb and tried to murder emergency responders with another.
- I also reported that BLM eulogized mass murderer Fidel Castro ("rest in power") and thanked him for giving refuge to Charles Lee Hill, who is alleged to have murdered a New Mexico law enforcement professional.

BLM is not the only left-wing extremist entity that has expressed public relations support for cop-killing terrorists. This is from Maxine Waters (D-Calif.): "Congresswoman Waters issues statement on U.S. Freedom Fighter Assata Shakur." Is that what a Democrat member of Congress calls a domestic terrorist who was convicted of killing a New Jersey state trooper? "One trooper was wounded and the other was shot and killed execution-style at point-blank range. Chesimard fled the scene, but was subsequently apprehended."

Any nationalism other than American nationalism, including black nationalism, white nationalism, and the Nation of Islam, has no place whatsoever in the United States. Neither do promotion of hatred and violence toward Jews, whether in the U.S. or Israel, nor is there a place here for organizations that condone domestic terrorist murder of law enforcement professionals. While Democrat National Convention chair Minyon Moore never seems to have expressed any of these positions herself, she was in a leadership position in an organization that did. I believe voters can form their own conclusions from this in November 2024.

Civis Americanus is the pen name of a contributor who remembers the lessons of history and wants to ensure that our country never needs to learn those lessons again the hard way. The author is remaining anonymous due to the likely prospect of being subjected to "cancel culture" for exposing the Big Lie behind Black Lives Matter.

Watch: Larry Elder Detailing Joe Biden’s Long History of Racism Leaves Charlamagne tha God Speechless

Charles Sykes/Bravo

DAVID NG

19 Aug 20230

2:07

Conservative radio host Larry Elder slammed President Joe Biden’s long history of racism toward blacks during a recent episode of The Breakfast Club, leaving host Charlamagne tha God stunned.

Larry Elder blasted Biden’s infamous comment about black voters that was made when the then- presidential candidate appeared on “The Breakfast Club” in 2020. Biden said that if black people don’t vote for him, then “you ain’t black.”

“This guy has done monstrous things to black people and then for him to come in here and tell you how you oughta think as a black person? That blew my mind,” Elder said.

Watch below:

Elder enumerated the many ways in which Biden has exacerbated economic conditions for black Americans, including creating an open southern border that has allowed millions of illegal aliens to flood the country.

He also cited Bidenflation and the White House’s opposition to school choice, noting that Biden’s children attended elite private schools.

Charlamagne tha God appeared stunned after Elder brought up Biden’s “you ain’t black” comment.

“I’m amazed that you weren’t mad about that,” Elder said.

“Umm… I’m not going to say that upset me, just like I’m not letting you upset me,” replied Charlamagne tha God.

Later, Charlamagne asked Elder how he should have responded to Biden’s insult.

“What I just now said — how dare you insult me and tell me how to think as a human being, let alone a black person. I don’t tell you how to think, Joe Biden, how dare you come in here and tell me how I should think. I’m going to vote for Donald Trump if I want to vote for Donald Trump. And if I want to vote for Donald Trump, that does not make me not black.”

“How insulting is that? How condescending is that?” Elder added.

Charlamagne seemed at a loss for words. “Mmm. You’re probably right. But I didn’t take it that way.”

University claims a student scalp for Black Lives Matter

By Civis Americanus

HSU Backed the Wrong Horse Big Time

Not only was what the student, and Mayor Adams, said about BLM accurate, BLM also meets the Anti-Defamation League's and International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance's definition of an anti-Semitic organization; one that denies the right of Israel to exist. BLM has, at its highest levels (e.g. Patrisse Cullors) promoted Rasmea Odeh, a Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine terrorist who murdered two Jews with a bomb. BLM refers to convicted cop killer Joanne Chesimard, aka Assata Shakur, as "Mama Assata." BLM has also condoned looting and rioting. We do not need to associate ourselves with something like BLM to denounce segregation, discrimination, civil rights violations, and similar conduct that has been neither legally nor socially acceptable in our country for more than fifty years.

Republicans: To Win the Midterms, Hit Black Lives Matter

By Civis Americanus

Most of us already know how we are going to vote in November. "Use Your Head and Vote Red" is a good answer to the other side's "Vote Blue, No Matter Who." We know in advance how the elections are going to turn out in hardcore Republican and Democratic states and enclaves. We do not expect California or New York to elect Republicans, nor are Wyoming and Idaho likely to elect Democrats. All the other races will, however, be decided by the swing voters who hold the balance of power, and it is to them we must appeal.

Sun Tzu noted in his Art of War that one should attack what the enemy cannot defend and defend what the enemy cannot attack. This is why we must direct our complete attention to BLM and its ties with the Democrat party.

BLM's Fall from Grace

The murder of George Floyd propelled Black Lives Matter into the forefront of American politics, where people perceived it as a champion of civil rights and police reform. Its subsequent behavior demonstrated instead that it is little if at all better than the evils against which it claimed to fight. All of these should become Republican talking points this summer and, more importantly, in September and October prior to the midterm elections.

1. BLM has provoked and incited the very kinds of incidents that have resulted in the justifiable homicides of Black people along with two of Kyle Rittenhouse's Caucasian assailants.

1. When BLM libelously accuses a police officer of "murdering," for example, Hakim Littleton, who is on bodycam video pointing a gun at the head of another officer, it is telling people it is OK to point guns at police officers. Then they wonder why Black people and "allies" who act on this guidance get shot.

2. When BLM protests the shooting of Ricardo Munoz, who is on bodycam video advancing on a police officer while brandishing a knife, it is telling its listeners that it is OK to menace police with knives. The same goes for calling it murder when a cop shot Ma'Khia Bryant, who was on bodycam video with an upraised knife over another Black person.

3. When BLM libelously accuses Kyle Rittenhouse of "murdering" two of his assailants, they are telling people it is OK to commit strong-arm robbery involving a firearm, as Rittenhouse's first assailant did, and to run after somebody while yelling violent threats and brandishing weapons.

4. When a (Caucasian) BLM activist records a video that shows how to break into occupied cars, cut seat belts, and "remove" drivers, she is telling them how to get shot legally, run over legally, and/or sent to prison for up to a life sentence in places like Florida that seem (not legal advice) to call this "burglary-battery."

5. Black Lives Matter has also endorsed looting, a property-only crime that does not justify deployment of deadly force. If, however, the looting involves a physical confrontation with, for example, a store owner, it can easily escalate to robbery (forcible taking), which does justify deadly force. It can also leave the looter with the kind of felony record that BLM complains ruins Black lives. Teen Vogue reports that one looter is facing three to seven years in prison for stealing some dish soap even though the dish soap was doubtlessly worth far less than the $500 cap for misdemeanor petty theft. The individual in question was, however, charged with burglary and looting, which escalates the action to a felony. The article adds that 160 people are facing felony charges for similar behavior, and BLM as represented by one of its leaders said it was OK to do this.

2. Black Lives Matter, as represented by Patrisse Cullors, has denied the right of Israel to exist. Cullors said to "step up boldly and courageously to end the imperialist project that's called Israel." Neither the Anti-Defamation League nor the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance define mere disagreement with the policies of Israel as anti-Semitic, but both classify denial of Israel's right to exist as such.

1. The Democrat party, as of June 11, 2022, still links to BLM Organizing Resources as well as Al Sharpton's National Action Network, the arguably racist and anti-Semitic hate group that chanted racist slogans like "white interloper" outside Freddy's Fashion Mart in 1995. A deranged individual later acted on this hate speech by setting the store on fire and killing seven people, including a Black security guard, whom the NAN depicted as a "cracker-lover."

2. The Democrat party page links to BLM petitions, and this is but one click away from a page that says, among other things, "Support Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) Movement" and links in turn to the BDS movement itself. I am sure that, if the RNC website linked, even via two clicks, to a white supremacist website, the Democrats would be all over it, and rightly so, but the Democrats have no problem linking to the Hamas-American Bund.

3. Black Lives Matter was exposed as long ago as 2020 for using 501(c)(3) tax-exempt resources to campaign against Donald Trump. The organization no longer claims to be able to accept tax-deductible contributions, nor does the contribution link to ActBlue Charities appear on its website. If the IRS acted against BLM's 501(c)(3) status, it has certainly not confided in me, nor should it do so, but there is plenty of precedent. First, political activity is a top priority for investigation by the IRS's Exempt Organization Division, as shown by the fast-track Political Activity Compliance Initiative (PACI). Second, the IRS has revoked numerous tax exemptions, generally from churches that have tried to influence elections. The Church at Pierce Creek, for example, lost its tax exemption for publishing an ad that said Christians should not vote for Bill Clinton. The material BLM published on its website was equally explicit against Donald Trump.

1. Allegations of election fraud in 2020 carry less and less weight with swing voters, who hold the balance of power to decide the 2022 elections. Evidence of BLM's efforts, while accepting tax-deductible contributions, to influence the 2020 presidential election, including, among other things, an explicit interview in which Patrisse Cullors said the goal was to get Trump out of office, plus a website that equated Trump with a Nazi with a neck tattoo, is, on the other hand incontrovertible. The swing voters can see for themselves how BLM abused their trust and the trust of the American people in general.

All of these are strong arguments to "use your head and vote red" this November.

BLACKS ARE THE MOST VIOLENT SUBCULTURE IN THE WORLD!

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Result in Anti-Semitism

By Eileen F. Toplansky

G. Tod Slone has written that "as a political ideology, diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), has proven time and again to be against freedom, reason, and truth. Proponents of the ideology tend to be hypocrites and anti-white racists [.]"

In fact, DEI is also a pathway to anti-Semitism. In a recent Heritage Foundation Report titled "Inclusion Delusion : The Anti-Semitism of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Staff at Universities" the reader learns that

university DEI staff are better understood as political activists with a narrow and often radical political agenda rather than promoters of welcoming and inclusive environments. Many DEI staff are particularly unwelcoming toward Jewish students who, like the vast majority of Jews worldwide, feel a strong connection to the state of Israel. The political activism of DEI staff may help explain the rising frequency of antisemitic incidents on college campuses as well as the association between college and graduate education and higher levels of antisemitic attitudes.

Rather than promoting diversity and inclusion, universities may be contributing to an increase in anti-Jewish hatred by expanding DEI staff and power.

While DEI staff are supposed to prevent hate/bias incidents directed at any student group -- in fact, they have "ethical, legal, and practical obligations" to do so, it appears that "not only do DEI staff fail to attend to Jewish concerns, including scheduling events on Jewish holidays but there have been reports of diversity officials expressing antisemitic attitudes."

For example, Kamau Bobb, the head of diversity at Google, wrote that Jews have an "insatiable appetite for war" and an "insensitivity to the suffering [of] others."

His punishment -- he was reassigned to work on STEM education efforts for Google.

The methodology used by Heritage to examine the anti-Semitism of DEI officials consisted of available Twitter accounts. Of the "633 tweets regarding Israel, 96% were critical of the Jewish state. Of the tweets regarding China, 62% expressed favorable sentiment."

It turns out that "DEI have a disproportionate interest in Israel relative to China and are far more likely to be critical of Israel than they are of China" -- the communist nation where totalitarianism reigns supreme with "severe internal repression of political dissent and private corporations," where Muslim Uyghurs are forced to donate their organs, and Falun Gong are tortured in Chinese labor camps.

Surely those who are "genuinely interested in human rights around the world [as the DEI operatives claim] have many more reasons to be paying attention to China than to Israel."

Unsurprising, DEI staff engage in standard anti-Israel sentiment with the use of the word “apartheid” although the only apartheid in the Middle East comes from the Arab world, not Israel where "Arabs are proportionately represented in the Knesset and head all their municipalities, schools and religious courts."

Furthermore, in the Israeli national election of 2021, the Ra'am Party became the first Arab party to join a governing coalition. In addition, "Arabs hold 10 seats in the 24th Knesset, four of which are held by Ra'am. Israeli Arabs have also held various government posts and one Arab currently serves on the Israeli Supreme Court."

Yet, according to the Heritage Report, "public communications of DEI staff embrace the genocidal phrase from the river to the sea" which means the eradication of Israel.

How comfortable DEI organizations are with Critical Race Theory sheds enormous light on the trajectory of their biases.

Crystal Borde, Vice President, Diversity + Inclusion at Vanguard Communications in an article titled "How to Contribute to Black Lives Matter Dialogue with a DEI Lens" is an illustrative example.

Filled with anti-American attitudes about "systemic and structural racism in the United States" Borde asserts that "these organizations no longer want to be neutral in this fight against inequities and injustice."

They want to contribute and support the conversation and reflect the best standards of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) in their communications. But this is a complicated, layered conversation with a long traumatic history and generations of impacted communities. How can communicators help their organizations find the best messaging, strategies and tactics to contribute to this conversation?

And they are not confining themselves to colleges. Timothy Nerozzi explains how "a public school system in Michigan spent 21 days teaching adults in the district how to be good 'equity' allies, with a direct call for them to join a Black Lives Matter political protest."

To the uninformed, Black Lives Matter is an avowed Marxist organization that is bent on destroying America and is filled with hatred for Jews and Israel.

Yet, at the University of Louisville, the DEI is proud to share its commitment with BLM because "White supremacy and anti-Black views have no room in our classrooms, meetings, conferences and scholarly work." Thus, the Department of Comparative Humanities at the University supports

Black Lives Matter and the fight against systemic racism, anti-Black oppression, white supremacy, and police brutality. We will seek to increase the number of African American, Indigenous, and immigrant faculty, staff, and students in our department and at the university."

It is no accident that as universities have become more "woke," anti-Semitism finds a comfortable haven. In an all too familiar scene "during a student-government meeting, protesters slurred Jewish students with conspiratorial charges that the Israeli military has trained American police how better to kill blacks. Campuses now routinely ignore student antisemitic smears; indeed, universities and colleges are becoming the incubators of progressive hatred of Jews." At a recent Rutgers webinar, lies about Israel and Jews abounded as Middle East studies professors engaged in unbridled hatred.

Where are the outcries from the diversity, equity, inclusion staff?

Anti-Semitism is now a staple of the woke activism on campuses across the country. In actuality, "campus anti-Semitism… stems from 'woke' black activism. 'Woke' politics is a radical ideology with roots in a strain of black nationalism that rejected the civil rights movement’s goal to promote racial integration throughout American society."

More telling is the fact that "[w]okeness’ paranoia of whites is… structured similarly to Jew hatred, priming black nationalists to articulate anti-Semitism as they would anti-whiteness."

In a nutshell, the Jew is the enemy because of his religion and his skin color. Consequently, "the toxicity of anti-Semitism, reminding us that even among American blacks, a group once allied with Jews in the struggle for civil rights, can manifest behind a veil of 'woke politics' and 'diversity.' Thus, [r]ace-nationalist demagogues pour contempt on Jews and depict them as a hidden force guiding human events to the misfortune of others."

It was inevitable that the Left would create yet another avenue to spew their vile beliefs and thus was incubated the diversity, inclusion, and equity programs that have not only infiltrated schools but businesses as well.

In fact, the "number of people devoted to DEI efforts has grown to about 45 people at the average university."

At the University of Michigan, for example, 163 people were identified as having formal responsibility for providing DEI programming and services. At the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC), there were 13.3 times as many people devoted to promoting DEI as providing services to people with disabilities. At Georgia Tech, there were 3.2 times as many DEI staff people as history professors. At the University of Louisville, the ratio of DEI personnel to history faculty was 2.9. The University of Virginia had 6.5 DEI staff for every 100 professors.

And yet, the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion folks stand mute in the face of bigotry against Jews. It would appear that the DEI programs at universities are merely the handmaidens of racist BLM activists and other radical Leftist proponents.

https://mexicanoccupation.blogspot.com/2023/05/racist-huckster-al-sharpton-n0-wonder.html

BLM is following a business model where victimhood is the product while outrage is the marketing strategy. This was pioneered by veteran race hustler Al Sharpton.

During his heyday, Sharpton made appearances following an incident where there were racial implications to make inflammatory speeches. Once they poured petrol into the fire he just flew out of the place and used it to raise funds for ‘charity’.

Sharpton seems to have mostly used his charity to enrich himself and his family. Sharpton was also a tax dodger; in 2016, he personally owed over $3 million in federal taxes.

Race Hustler Al Sharpton Says He Told Alvin Bragg To Prosecute Subway 'Vigilante'

Karl Salzmann

May 5, 2023

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.

"To let this go forward in any way is to sanction vigilante-ism [sic] in this city," Sharpton thundered. "This is really giving legitimacy to those that can say, 'I can get up on the subway if somebody's making noise and do what I want to do, including causing their death.'"

Sharpton rose to fame in the 1980s and 1990s through racial rabble-rousing, spearheading the Tawana Brawley rape hoax and the anti-Semitic Crown Heights riot. He has since reinvented himself as "one of the most influential figures within the Democratic Party and media establishment," the Washington Free Beacon reported, with Vice President Kamala Harris last month telling him, "I love you."

Other left-wingers have also demanded that New York City officials act against the people who restrained Neely. Far-left congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) on Wednesday blamed New York City mayor Eric Adams (D.) for Neely's death, saying that Adams "cut the very services that could have helped" Neely. New York City comptroller Brad Lander (D.) and Massachusetts congresswoman Ayanna Pressley (D.) struck similar notes.

None of the left-wingers mentioned New York City's massive crime spike, which started after progressives in the State Legislature passed far-left bail reform laws.

Bragg, a "criminal justice reform" advocate, may listen to Sharpton's demand to prosecute the passenger who put Neely in a headlock. While police let the passenger go without charges, Bragg's office announced Wednesday that it is investigating the man.

BLM student activist’s lies destroy the life of fellow white student

By Rajan Laad

Reason magazine recently reported that Black Lives Matter activist Zyahna Bryant ruined the reputation of a fellow University of Virginia student Morgan Bettinger with claims of racism.

This incident occurred in July 2020 during the George Floyd riots. UVA student Zyahna Bryant, then 19, was a high-profile activist and was a prominent member of the ‘protests.’

Bettinger was driving home from work when she saw a dump truck blocking the road ahead such that she had no room to turn around. When she stepped out, the dump truck driver informed her that he protecting the demonstrators.

“It’s a good thing that you are here, because otherwise, these people would have been speed bumps” replied Bettinger. Bettinger said, her “speed bumps” remark emanated from gratitude to the driver for guarding the demonstrators. The truck driver corroborated Bettinger’s remark to local law enforcement.

But Zyahna Bryant, perhaps purposefully, misinterpreted Bettinger’s comments. Bryant claimed that Bettinger threatened demonstrators calling them “good f–king speed bumps.” Bryant posted the following tweet:

“The woman in this truck approached protesters in #Charlottesville, and told us that we would make ‘good speed bumps'”

“She then called the police and started crying saying we were attacking her.”

The post was retweeted more than 1,000 times.

Bryant also posted videos — not of the alleged “speed bump” remark, but of its aftermath where Bettinger returns to her car while Bryant and other ‘protesters’ follow and begin taunting and attacking her car.

The story was reported by local media and spread like wildfire.

Bettinger was identified online and was barraged with vicious insults from fellow UVA students; she was called a Nazi and a White Supremacist.

Emboldened by the impact of her post, Bryant began a campaign to send mass complaints to school administrators demanding Bettinger's expulsion. She tweeted the following:

“EMAIL these UVA deans now to demand that Morgan face consequences for her actions and that UVA stop graduating racists”

Bryant also filed a complaint with the University Judiciary Committee, a student-run disciplinary system, alleging Bettinger had threatened students’ health and safety. A student disciplinary hearing concluded that Bettinger was guilty of making a legal threat against the protesters.

It is important to state Bryant’s accusation against Bettinger remained uncorroborated, despite the fact that there were over 30 people around.

Yet Bettinger was the subject of numerous investigations in the subsequent months.

Bryant also complained to the school's Office for Equal Opportunity and Civil Rights (EOCR), claiming that Bettinger had used racial slurs five times and had treated Bryant unfairly.

EOCR could not substantiate three of the five charges.

Bryant later acknowledged that she might have misheard Bettinger’s 'speed bumps' assertion.

So, who is Zyahna Bryant?

Bryant received national attention after writing a 2016 petition demanding that Charlottesville take down its statue of Robert E. Lee.

By the summer of 2020, she was on Teen Vogue’s “21 under 21” list.

She even shared a platform alongside Bernie Sanders and was profiled by various liberal mouthpieces such as the New Yorker and the New York Times.

The UVA incident and Bryant’s accusations against Bettinger bolstered Bryant’s profile. She was the subject of a glowing Washington Post profile in 2021 and was named to Ebony magazine’s “Power 100” list. She was also featured in a Juneteenth-themed post on Instagram's official page.

What about Morgan Bettinger?

Bettinger is a first-generation college student; her father was a police officer who died of cancer six years before the incident.

Bettinger told Reason magazine that she “was completely consumed” by the ordeal. She said her phone did not stop “blowing up” perhaps due to calls and social media alerts. She said it ruined her peace and affected her sleep for a long time. She also said the stress of the experience cause her to fall sick and constantly vomit.

Bettinger eventually graduated from UVA but her reputation has been permanently sullied.

With such a severe mark on her disciplinary record, her academic and professional prospects have been reduced. She still lives and works in the Charlottesville area, but lives in fear of being stalked and harassed.

"This whole situation has had a huge impact on my life," Bettinger says. "The university has never had to answer for what their actions have done."

She said she is planning a lawsuit against the school, Reason reported.

To sum it up: Bryant will thrive while Bettinger will struggle, perhaps all her life.

So, what do we make of all this?

BLM is following a business model where victimhood is the product while outrage is the marketing strategy. This was pioneered by veteran race hustler Al Sharpton.

Sharpton seems to have mostly used his charity to enrich himself and his family. Sharpton was also a tax dodger; in 2016, he personally owed over $3 million in federal taxes.

BLM and its protégées such as Bryant have taken the business model to a different level.

They used George Floyd’s death to create a climate of fear. They implicitly urged celebrities, corporate houses, and politicians to donate. These donations were actually protection money and a guarantee that to be regarded as among the good ones.

Their con was lucrative.

In February 2021, BLM published an 'impact report' which states that it closed out 2020 with $60 million in its bank accounts. The outfit failed to file taxes for 2020. Floyd’s family is unlikely to have received even a penny of those funds.

In April 2021, the NY Post reported that BLM co-founder Patrisse Cullors, then its executive director, had spent $3.2 million on various real estate purchases across the US.

New York Magazine reported that in October 2020, BLM bought a 6,500-square-foot Southern California mansion worth $6 million using donation funds. They were also filmed dining in luxury and sipping champagne at the luxury home.

BLM ‘activist’ Bryant probably realized that she may not receive prominence because everyone was protesting against Floyd's death. Hence, she shifted from protesting against Floyd’s death to fabricating claims about Bettinger so she could claim personal victimhood.

It didn’t matter to her that her scurrilous and spurious allegations will ruin Bettinger's life; her goal was publicity, power, and lucrative opportunities to make easy money.

BLM ‘activists’ care for only one cause, and it isn’t the upliftment or welfare of African Americans, it is the upliftment and welfare of themselves.

But unlike frauds such as Elizabeth Holmes, their product isn’t tangible. Holmes’s product was tested and found to be a fraud. This will never happen with BLM because they don’t make any concrete promises that can be measured. They just use create a climate of fear and hysteria and raise funds and disappear till the next outrage.

The result of the likes of BLM is that it spreads despondency, divisiveness, and cynicism in society, especially among African Americans.

Perhaps some of these disillusioned youths could have been the next great inventors, writers, teachers, and leaders, but now their lives are wasted.

This truly is tragic.

New York Responds to Rampant Car Theft by Handing Out Apple AirTag Trackers

May 1, 2023

New York City mayor Eric Adams (D.) is handing out Apple AirTag tracking devices to 500 residents so they can track their car if it's stolen, as car thefts skyrocket across the city.

"The aggravated number of grand larceny autos continues to drive up crime in our city," Adams said on Sunday. He announced that 500 AirTags donated by a local nonprofit will be distributed to New Yorkers. He also encouraged citizens to purchase tracking devices for their cars. Car thefts are up 13 percent from this point last year, with nearly 4,500 cases so far.

Adams said the tracker is a "really amazing piece of ingenuity,"

"It’s easy to monitor," Adams added. "You can see in real-time where the vehicle is located."

Adams's comments come after he urged store-owners in March to ban entry to people wearing face masks in order to crack down on robbers.

Critics of Democratic policies point to the city's bail reform as responsible for a "revolving door of criminals" that's led to an increase in crime. The New York Times reported last month that just 327 thieves, who have collectively been arrested more than 6,000 times, are responsible for a third of the city’s retail crime.

House Republicans held a hearing in the city last month focused on rising crime and Democratic officials' failure to curb it. A bodega owner who was arrested after killing an attacker in self-defense called out Manhattan district attorney Alvin Bragg for arresting "an innocent man like me" instead of "people committing crime."

Two-Thirds of Murders in Dem Stronghold of Chicago Go Unsolved

Two out of three murders committed in Chicago go unsolved, according to an NPR report that comes as the city prepares to welcome a new mayor who has called for defunding the police.

Only 33 percent of homicides led to an arrest between 2016 and 2020, NPR reported, compared with the national clearance rate of around 50 percent. New York City had a clearance rate around 90 percent in the years before the pandemic, and 60 percent in 2020. Los Angeles had a clearance rate of 70 percent in 2019.

Unsolved homicides may have played a role in Democratic mayor Lori Lightfoot's February loss in her bid for reelection. Lightfoot was the first mayor to lose reelection in 40 years. Crime was the greatest concern on voters' minds going into the election. Two-thirds of respondents in one poll said they feel unsafe in the city.

But voters elected to replace Lightfoot with Brandon Johnson, a "Defund the Police" supporter and the only candidate who opposed filling the 1,600 vacancies in the Chicago Police Department. He said in 2019 that the city should "go to neighborhoods and provide supports to community, not just with law enforcement."

Chicago's homicide rate has skyrocketed nearly 40 percent since Lightfoot took office in 2019, watchdog group Wirepoints found.

Walmart in April announced the closure of four Chicago stores, affecting hundreds of workers and tens of thousands of residents who already face difficulty in obtaining food. The company pointed to revenue losses that "nearly doubled in just the last five years." The company said that collectively the city’s Walmarts have not been profitable in the last 17 years.

Illinois ranks second in the nation for most residents leaving, with one resident leaving the state every 3 minutes and 43 seconds.

The Atlanta Police Department released a photo and BOLO (Be On the Lookout) as a suspect remains at large following reports of a shooting on W. Peachtree St. between 12th St. and 13th St.

Police tweeted that as of 12:42 p.m. ET, shots had been fired and “multiple people injured.”

UPDATE: ABC News reports that one person was killed in the attack and three others were wounded. The wounded were transported to a hospital but the extent of their injuries was not made known. The suspected attacker is on the loose and the Atlanta Police Department warned he is “armed and dangerous and should not be approached.”

They asked people in the area to avoid the building and to shelter in place.

Roughly 20 minutes later they noted that the suspect was at large and tweeted photos of him:

WSB-TV reported that “multiple agencies including Atlanta police, Atlanta fire, MARTA police, Georgia Tech police and the Georgia State Patrol have responded to the situation.”

The outlet also said the suspect appeared to be holding a handgun.

Bankrupt Black City to Pay Reparations to Itself

“Eight out of every 10 people here are due some sort of reparation.”

May 3, 2023 by Daniel Greenfield 35 Comments

While the eyes of the nation are on San Francisco’s proposal to pay every black person $5 million in reparations for an estimated total cost of $175 billion, Motor City won’t be left behind.

Last year, 80% of Detroit voters in a 78% black city cast their ballots in support of a reparations commission. That was much higher than 63% poll numbers but local election results tend to outperform the polls due to the civic work of the Wayne County Cemetery Voters Association.

Chairwoman Lauren Hood of the Detroit City Planning Commission said that she didn’t know who the 20% were, but assumed it was maybe newcomers to the city or non-black residents.

But with a 78% black majority, Detroit would be taking money from black people to pay reparations to other black people with the government, run by a white mayor, taking a cut.

“Detroit is the blackest big city in the nation. Eight out of every 10 people here are due some sort of reparation,” Chairwoman Hood argued. “Can you imagine how the landscape of the city might change socially, economically, spiritually, if we actually get what we’re owed?”

If 8 out of 10 people are due reparations, whom does Hood see paying them? The other 2? And what happens if the other 2 leave?

A decade ago, Detroit fell into the largest municipal bankruptcy in history. Millions are being spent to tear down thousands of homes after the city’s population plunged from 1.8 million in 1950 to just 639,111 today. When the last census showed that another 7,150 people had fled, Detroit sued the Census Bureau claiming that its numbers were “divorced from reality”.

Reality actually took out a restraining order against Detroit in the 1980s. And the city and state have made it clear that they won’t even speak to reality until it pays reparations.

The current plan to revive the population is to “attract new residents from states less protective of the LGBTQ+ community and with more restrictive abortion access.”

And when all those abortion-loving transgender folks show up, they can pay reparations.

This replaces a previous proposal headlined in a New York Times op-ed as “Let Syrians Settle Detroit” to bring Islamists fighting a civil war to resettle the city. They’re bound to get along well with the LGBTQ activists and abortion un-moms who can all happily pay reparations together.

Reparations got off to a slow start when the “virtual meeting was hacked several times with displays of explicit content, including images of pornography”.

Detroit was not even functional enough to run a Zoom meeting, let alone distribute reparations from black people to other black people in a city where the most popular crime is copper theft.

Slavery had been banned in Michigan since 1787 by the Confederation Congress almost as soon as the United States came into existence. Before then there had been 170 slaves in Detroit. Tracking down the descendants of those 170 slaves from almost 250 years ago would be an interesting exercise. Not that Detroit is planning to limit reparations to those slaves.

One major problem with reparations is that Detroit doesn’t have the money. There’s another group that has a much more solid legal claim to the failed city’s cash. After it went bankrupt in 2013, Detroit’s recovery was only enabled by the crooked mechanism of declaring a 10-year pension ‘holiday’. The holiday ends in 2023. Detroit politicians kept claiming that they had a $100 million annual surplus, because they were not making $163 million in pension payments.

With the 20-year pension payment plan due, Detroit went to court to ask for a 30-year plan so that it could postpone until 2033.

Worse still, the actual liabilities were $500 million more than the numbers on the books.

Detroit’s political class had three options, make payments they could not afford, go bankrupt again or use a reparations commission to change the subject from all the money it owed to 12,000 retired cops, firefighters and EMTs. What reparations really means is stealing pensions from city retirees who had risked their lives for decades to fund teardowns of more buildings.

And then maybe all the transgender Syrian Muslim refugees seeking abortions will come.

Much like in San Francisco, no one is sure where the

reparations money for 8 out of 10 Detroit residents will

come from. The only idea that has emerged so far has

been to legalize drugs and use the money for reparations.

And even the idea of selling drugs to black people and

then giving them a percentage of the drug money ran into

trouble when its attempt to limit drug licenses to longtime

residents was found to be illegal. While drug sales have

since been legalized, who in Detroit is even going to buy

enough legal drugs to finance reparations?

Black folks in Detroit need to be compensated,” Cecily McClellan, a member of the commission, declared.

“I would like to use this opportunity to make one thing abundantly clear this work is not about handouts,” City Council President Mary Sheffield ranted. “It is about creating generational wealth and creating economic mobility and opportunity in the black community as we stand just mere blocks from the former home of the mother of the civil rights movement, Rosa Parks.”

Rosa Parks was mugged in her own home when a thug broke in, demanded money, and punched the 81-year-old former civil rights activist in the face. It was the 90s, a saner time, and so the George Floyd wannabe was arrested and sent away for 8 years.

Parks is dead and so is Detroit.

The good news is that Detroit’s population continues to decline. Black people have joined white people in getting out. The city suffered the largest loss of black residents of any in the country. The schools are the worst in the nation, the water is tainted and crime is out of control.

But the reparations commission has a $350,000 budget so at least someone is getting paid.

REALITY: CRIME IN AMERICA IS BLACK!

Multi-State Manhunt Ends When Armed Gas Station Clerk Shoots Suspected Robber

BRITTANY M. HUGHES | MAY 2, 2023

Font Size

A manhunt for a suspected robber came to an abrupt end last weekend after the perp was shot by an armed convenience store clerk who decided he wasn’t going to be just another victim.

It all started in Palm Coast, Florida, when a thief reportedly barged into a Circle K gas station store around 3:30 a.m. on Friday and demanded all the money in the register - about $90 - before lifting a bunch of merchandise from the shelves and demanding the clerk hand over a pack of cigarettes, a tank’s worth of gas, and change to put air in his tires.

The incident sparked a cross-state manhunt on I-95 involving Florida Highway Patrol, the St. John’s County Sheriff’s Office, the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office, and the Nassau County Sheriff’s Office, later transferring to the Camden County Sheriff’s Office once the suspect - later ID’d as Qwinntavus Kwame Jordan, not kidding - hit the Georgia state line.

Eventually, officers with the Kingsland Police Department managed to blow out the suspected thief’s tires with a stop stick, and Jordan took off on foot, finally ending up at another nearby gas station where he pulled out a gun and demanded the clerk hand over his car keys. The clerk did, and Jordan took off in the car - only to crash it through the convenience store door moments later.

Whoopsie.

Jordan then reportedly got out of the car and attacked the clerk and a customer who had the poor fortune of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. There was just one problem: in the time it took the thief to crash the car and run back into the building, the clerk had grabbed a gun of his own - and he used it.

According to police, Jordan was transported to the hospital in critical condition. Oh! And it turns out he was already wanted for armed robbery in Coffee County, Georgia.

The moral of the story? First, don't be a garbage person who robs convenience stores. But if you happen to be in one when an idiot like this shows up, make sure you can defend yourself.

KSAT reported that the furniture store employee arrived at work and saw the suspect “running out of the back of the business.”

The suspect was allegedly stealing catalytic converters.

FOX 29 noted the employee and the alleged thief “struggled over the stolen property.” Then the employee shot the suspect, who is now hospitalized in critical condition.

KTSA pointed out that the suspected thief had gotten into his truck and was driving at the employee when the employee shot him.

Police confirmed they found a catalytic converter at the scene, which had been removed from one of the furniture store vehicles.

Robbery suspect shot 8 times by store clerk after fleeing from Palm Coast to Georgia

Staff Report

Early Friday morning, Qwinntavus Kwame Jordan allegedly robbed the Circle K Gas Station at 6125 State Road 100 East in Palm Coast, making off with $90 in cash and other items, and then headed north on I-95, according to police.

But Flagler County Sheriff's deputies, using "investigative means," according to an extensive and detailed Facebook post, were aware of where the man was going. He was located by the St. Johns County Sheriff’s Office.

The chase begins

Jordan's vehicle was pursued by the Florida Highway Patrol, the St. Johns County Sheriff’s Office, the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office, and the Nassau County Sheriff’s Office on I-95 until it reached the Florida-Georgia line, according to the post.

Once Jordan got to Georgia, the Camden County Sheriff’s Office took over the pursuit, and the Kingsland Police Department put out "stop sticks" on I-95 and the vehicle came to a halt. Jordan then fled on foot.

He entered a nearby convenience store, brandished a firearm, and demanded the clerk’s car keys. He then took the clerk’s vehicle and started to flee but somehow managed to crash the vehicle through the front of the convenience store.

Shot 8 times

He then got out of the vehicle and chased the clerk and a customer through the store and a struggle ensued. But the clerk, who was now armed, shot the suspect "approximately eight times," according to Georgia authorities. He was taken into custody and transported to a hospital in critical condition.

More:FPC student arrested, accused of threatening to kill 2 other students, sheriff says.

The investigation is "active and ongoing" with several law enforcement agencies involved including the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office.

Wanted fugitive

At the time of the robbery, Jordan was also a fugitive wanted for armed robbery in Coffee County, Georgia. The warrants had been issued on April 27th. Police don't know why he was in Flagler County.

Flagler County Sheriff Rick Staly commended his team for its fast action and thanked all the agencies that assisted in apprehending the fugitive.

“I also commend the Georgia store clerk that put a swift end to this dirtbag's crime spree," he stated in the post. "If he survives his injuries, he should spend a long time in prison.”

Las Vegas Police: Suspect Arrested for Killing Homeless Man in Drainage Canal

2:18

A Las Vegas man has been arrested on suspicion of fatally shooting a homeless individual in a drainage canal where he lived in February.

The Metropolitan Police Department announced Monday that 34-year-old Jemiah Garner was taken into custody on Thursday, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported.

“At about 2:40 a.m. on Feb. 20, Metro received a report of an unresponsive man beside a drainage canal located near Arville Street and Harmon Avenue. When officers arrived, they found Mark Deandre Grant suffering from an apparent gunshot wound. Grant died at the scene,” the article read.

The victim apparently lived inside the canal. After he had been shot, he somehow got out of the canal and collapsed nearby.

“Garner is in custody at the Clark County Detention Center for unrelated charges. He was re-booked on April 20, 2023, for open murder with a deadly weapon,” law enforcement said.

Police shared a mugshot of Garner in a social media post on Monday:

A woman claiming to be Grant’s girlfriend called him a “terrific friend” and “great boyfriend” after the shooting happened, per the Review-Journal.

The suspect reportedly faces a felony charge of assault with a deadly weapon in connection with a separate case, the outlet said.

According to an 8 News Now report from October, the homeless population rose seven percent in Las Vegas over the past couple of years, with 5,645 people being described as homeless in 2022:

Meanwhile, when it comes to the crime wave plaguing the nation under President Joe Biden’s (D) leadership, “Americans are more likely now than at any time over the past five decades to say there is more crime in their local area than there was a year ago,” according to a Gallup article published in October.

“The 56% of U.S. adults who report an increase in crime where they live marks a five-percentage-point uptick since last year and is the highest by two points in Gallup’s trend dating back to 1972,” the report said.

Garner is expected to appear in court Wednesday for arraignment per his recent arrest, the Review-Journal article said.

Black Lives Matter Self-Identifies as Black Nationalist

By Civis Americanus

BLM has self-identified as a Black nationalist entity, which underscores the need for the Republican Party to focus on the ties between this entity and the Democrats.

I have reported previously how the Black Lives Matter Global Network has glorified foreign and domestic terrorists, cop killers, and Fidel Castro, and has taken actions both the Anti-Defamation League and International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance define as anti-Semitic: denial of the right of Israel to exist. The organization has also encouraged looting and other forms of civil unrest.

The following statement is not from a right-wing news source; it is straight from BLM's official web page. This relates to the group's controversial decision to spend millions of dollars on property for the use of its leaders.

"Second, this property has served as a safe haven to protect the leaders of our Black nationalist movement. Our leaders and their families, including their children, have been targeted by white supremacists. They have been threatened with physical harm. We have a responsibility to protect them, and this property has supported those efforts." [emphasis added]

There is no place in our society for physical threats against other people and their property, whether from white supremacists against BLM or BLM against law-abiding citizens and their property. The central issue here is that BLM has openly self-identified as Black nationalist, and we need to look at exactly what that means.

What is Black Nationalism?

· According to Wikipedia (supported by references in both cases), "Black nationalism is a type of racial nationalism or pan-nationalism which espouses the belief that black people are a race, and seeks to develop and maintain a black racial and national identity.." Wikipedia adds, "White nationalism is a type of racial nationalism or pan-nationalism which espouses the belief that white people are a race and seeks to develop and maintain a white racial and national identity." This comes across as the same kind of trash from two different dumpsters, and I am using the family-friendly version of what I am really thinking. There is only one nation between Canada and Mexico, its citizens come in all colors, and there is no place here for a white nation, a Black nation, a nation of Islam, or anything other than an American nation.

· Black nationalists don't like Jews very much. According to Eunice Pollack [emphasis is mine],

"…racialized forms of antisemitism and anti-Zionism took shape, spread, and intensified among Blacks in the US from the era of Malcolm X through the current Black Lives Matter movement. … one concluded in a Black students’ magazine that 'Caucasian Jews' continue to 'defile and trash and defecate on the rest of the world,' and warned that 'Caucasian Jews . . . should not expect anyone to respect or protect their humanity or even shed a tear when something catastrophic happens to them.'"

This sounds a lot like the dehumanizing and even violent rhetoric that came out of the Nazi Party in the 1930s, and a lot of Black criminals are acting on this in mostly Democrat-run cities.

"Behrman said he believes the assaults are part of a disturbing game by some African-American teens. 'And they're playing a game: 'knockout.' 'Knock out the Jew,' maybe. And they're going around the neighborhood punching Jews,' Behrman said."

This is not to say that white criminals don't also commit anti-Semitic violence; alleged synagogue shooter Robert Bowers is a Caucasian. Most anti-Semitic hate speech comes, however, from the extreme political Left in the United States including diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) "professionals" and women's and gender studies departments.

Eunice Pollack's "Black Antisemitism in America: Past and Present" goes a lot further into the veritable sewer of Jew-hatred that comes from Black nationalists, including Black Lives Matter and Louis Farrakhan. It is therefore reasonable to conclude that Black nationalism and Black Lives Matter are no better than the Tsarist authors of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. They have also, of course, directed vicious hate speech at Caucasians in general, including depiction of white people as "potential humans," and they don't think much of law enforcement professionals of any race. "What does Black Lives Matter call a Black police officer? The N word." That's not an exaggeration because this word is clearly audible in a video of a BLM riot in Detroit, and the rioters are throwing objects at the officers of all races. See "Protests in Detroit" at roughly the minus 24:00 mark for the N word. Warning; the F word also figures prominently in this display.

Who Supports Black Lives Matter?

We cannot repeat enough that the following people and organizations support BLM, which supports in turn cop killers (Joanne Chesimard and allegedly Charles Hill), Jew killers (Rasmea Odeh), vandals, rioters, looters, and Fidel Castro who murdered countless Cubans. We need to keep reminding people until they repudiate their support for BLM and, in the case of Hardin-Simmons University and Cornell's Law School, apologize respectively to the student HSU forced to leave when she criticized BLM and the Cornell Law professor whom the Dean attacked on an official Cornell web page. Until that happens, students should be discouraged from applying to either institution not only for their unfair treatment of the people in question but also for their alignment with an anti-Semitic and racist hate organization.

· Joe Biden's team met with BLM's leaders in 2021, when this behavior by BLM was well known. Even though BLM was not happy with the outcome, Biden's representatives should not have associated with them.

· Kamala Harris praised the "brilliance" of Black Lives Matter.

· Cornell's expensive Law School, as represented by then-Dean Eduardo Peñalver, went on record as supporting BLM under color of "racial justice." State University of New York Buffalo's Law School in-state tuition is roughly a third of Cornell's and you'll probably learn more law, rather than leftist ideology, there as well.

· Hardin-Simmons University, as represented by President Eric Bruntmyer.

· Solid Blue New York City renamed a street for Black Lives Matter, thus putting the mayor’s office solidly behind anti-Semitism and hatred of police.

· The Daily Signal lists major corporations, including Microsoft, that donated money to BLM but adds, "Microsoft Corp. announced June 5 that it would donate $250,000 to the 'Black Lives Matter Foundation,' but the computer and technology giant linked to the Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation." Robert Ray Barnes' BLM Foundation has absolutely nothing to do with the Black nationalist BLM Global Network Foundation, but the latter's web page identified itself as the "BLM Foundation Inc." which may have diverted donations from Barnes' small organization to Patrisse Cullors' entity. The reader can form his or her own conclusions as to BLM Global Networks' ethics in this regard. In any event, all these companies should be called upon to repudiate their support of BLM Global Network.

The Democrat Party's connections to BLM Global Network meanwhile need to take front and center stage for the 2024 national elections.

Civis Americanus is the pen name of a contributor who remembers the lessons of history, and wants to ensure that our country never needs to learn those lessons again the hard way. He or she is remaining anonymous due to the likely prospect of being subjected to "cancel culture" for exposing the Big Lie behind Black Lives Matter.

The Top Ten Jew-Hating Professors in America

American universities: a breeding ground for Jew-hatred.

April 26, 2023 by Sara Dogan 13 Comments

A dire epidemic of Jew hatred is emanating from our college campuses, infecting our larger society and culture. Nearly every day brings a new report of anti-Semitic campus hate crimes. Jewish religious symbols such as menorahs and mezuzot are desecrated, swastikas and comments like “Hitler was right,” and “F—k Israel” are scrawled on residence hall doors and classroom buildings. Jewish fraternities and campus Hillel buildings are repeatedly targeted with anti-Jewish slurs.

A 2023 report from the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) found a 41% increase in antisemitic incidents on American campuses in 2022, as compared to the also horrendous 36% increase in the U.S. at large. Another joint study undertaken by the ADL and Hillel in 2021 found that nearly a third of college Jewish students reported having personally experienced anti-Semitism on campus. Of those who experienced anti-Semitism, 79% reported experiencing it repeatedly. “Their concern about antisemitism can impede their ability to participate in classes, join clubs, and display their Jewish identity proudly,” the study’s authors concluded.

As David Horowitz wrote recently, “Our premier universities have in their liberal arts programs become one-party states ruled by ignorance and bigotry, and thus breeding grounds for civic and racial hatreds and lawlessness.” Among the many insidious ways in which our universities have poisoned American society and public life, Jew hatred looms large among them.

Prestigious academic organizations including the American Studies Association and the Middle East Studies Association, among others, have passed measures endorsing an academic boycott of Israeli colleges and universities—a form of the genocidal Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement that aims to isolate and annihilate the Jewish state.

Instead of using their positions to combat this Jew hatred, many faculty at prestigious universities across America instead deliberately fan its flames. They use the official resources of the University, both financial and academic, to promote terrorist propaganda lies accusing Jews and Israelis of being “colonial settlers” and imperialist aggressors. They publish articles and academic works spreading ancient tropes of Jewish blood libel or seeking to obscure the Jews’ historical connection to the land of Israel. They abuse their positions of authority over students in the classroom to deliver diatribes characterizing Israel as an inhumane aggressor and the Palestinians as its innocent victims. They invite extremist, terrorist-supporting speakers to campus to speak at official university functions or as guest lecturers in class.

The ten professors profiled in this report as the “Top Ten Jew-Hating Professors in America” have done all this and more. Some are employed by public universities, some by private educational institutions, but every school among them receives federal monies in one form or another and is thus bound by Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 which prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, and national origin in programs and activities receiving federal aid. In an executive order issued in 2019, then-president Donald Trump directed federal agencies to enforce this law against institutions that discriminated against Jews, since Judaism is both a religion and a nationality/race. Despite this clear mandate, American universities have continued to flout the law and harbor academics who perpetrate blatant Jew hatred upon the student population.

We call on the universities implicated in this report to put an immediate end to the Jew hatred infecting their campuses and to take action against faculty who continue to promulgate anti-Semitism on campus, creating an unsafe environment for Jewish students. If they should fail to do so, we urge Congress to withhold all federal funding until they eliminate this cancer in their midst.

#1: Rabab Abdulhadi
Associate Professor of Ethnic Studies/Race and Resistance Studies
Senior Scholar of the Arab and Muslim Ethnicities and Diasporas Initiative
San Francisco State University

On a campus already known for extremists and anti-Semites, Professor Rabab Abdulhadi serves as the public face of SFSU’s Jew hatred. To say that Abdulhadi is notorious is an understatement. She is a rabidly anti-Semitic professor of Ethnic Studies who also heads SFSU’s Arab and Muslim Ethnicities and Diasporas Initiative (AMED), an academic program which flouts its anti-Semitism by openly declaring Zionism to be racism and Israel to be the occupier of Palestine. AMED is known for sponsoring events which feature posters reading, “My Heroes Have Always Killed Colonizers,” referring to Israel’s Jews.

Abdulhadi has glorified anti-Israel terrorism in public talks. A letter sent by a coalition of concerned Jewish groups to SFSU President Leslie Wong in 2014 describes in chilling detail how an Ethnic Studies Department event organized by Abdulhadi featured “wild inaccuracies, monstrous distortions, and blatant lies — all intended to demonize and delegitimize the Jewish state and promote a boycott that would hasten its demise.”

Professor Abdulhadi’s husband, Jaime Veve, a union activist, also spoke at the event to exalt anti-Semitic terrorists and murderers. The letter to President Wong describes how Veve “insisted that Palestinians who had injured or murdered Jews were not terrorists but rather ‘heroes or heroines’ who had ‘committed political acts of defiance and resistance,’ and he justified Palestinian terrorism by calling it ‘the cry of a baby calling for the attention of the world.’”

During her tenure at SFSU, Abdulhadi has sought to build relationships with anti-Israel terrorists. While attending a university-sponsored trip to Israel in 2014, she met with anti-Israel terrorists Leila Khaled and Sheikh Raed Salah. Abdulhadi has praised Khaled, a notorious airplane hijacker, as “an icon in liberation movements and…an icon for women’s liberation.” Salah served a prison sentence in Israel for aiding the terrorist group Hamas. He has also been charged for incitement to violence for giving a public speech in which he accused Jews of using the blood of Palestinian children to bake their bread. Despite this, Abdulhadi has insisted that he does not have terrorist ties.

In September 2020, Abdulhadi and AMED held an event featuring Khaled. Abdulhadi planned to stream the event on Zoom, but the platform canceled its coverage citing Khaled’s terrorist record.

Abdulhadi also attempted to open a formal collaboration between SFSU and An-Najah National University in Nablus, Palestine. An-Najah University has been described by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) as “known for its advocacy of anti-Israel violence and its recruitment of Palestinian college students into terrorist groups.”

The notorious professor has not hesitated to use her privileged position as a professor at SFSU to promote her anti-Israel agenda. Abdulhadi is a founding member of the US Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (USACBI), and also supports the wider Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement against Israel, an anti-Semitic, Hamas-funded campaign to isolate and weaken the Jewish state. She frequently promotes BDS at university-sponsored events and forums.

In March 2019, she shared a live video and statement on the official Facebook page for the Arab and Muslim Ethnicities and Diasporas Initiative (AMED). The statement demonized Israel and invoked anti-Semitic conspiracy tropes by accusing the SFSU administration of “collaborat[ing] with the Zionist designs to silence us… staff, faculty and community who view Israel (as I do) as a colonial, racist and occupying power…” and labeled the administration’s conduct as “the weaponizing of free speech in the service of Nazis, Zionists and other white supremacists…” In July 2019, she shared an image of a large banner exhorting “Zionism = Racism, Silence = Death, Palestine is a Queer Issue – Boycott! Divest! Sanction!”

Abdulhadi has repeatedly propagated anti-Semitic tropes accusing Jews of conspiring to orchestrate world affairs and of possessing dual loyalties—a slur implying that Jews have more loyalty to Israel than to America or other nations. In September 2020, the professor said on Facebook: “I think we need to go to [then U.S. vice presidential candidate] Kamala Harris and say to her: ‘…It’s not okay that some of our representatives actually have dual Israeli-U.S. passport. That’s not okay! That’s not okay!…”

In a February, 2019 interview with Arab Talk, Abdulhadi denigrated pro-Israel groups in America, saying [00:07:09]: “These groups are bullies…they push around in Congress and they bribe them, and they give them money, they twist their arms and so on, there are used to basically silencing everybody and crushing everybody.”

While Abdulhadi uses the public resources of San Francisco State to promote her Jew hatred, she is notably less tolerant toward pro-Israel views. When SFSU President Leslie Wong was forced to clarify that he welcomes Zionists at the University, Abdulhadi responded by equating Zionists with the KKK: “I’m waiting for him to say, white supremacists is welcome, KKK is welcome, David Horowitz is welcome, Richard Spenser is welcome, Neo-Nazis are welcome, homophobes are welcome, misogynists are welcome, why stop only at Zionists? Welcome them all. I mean bring the…whole club. Bring everybody who is right wing and racist, bring them to campus, why only stop at Zionists.”

Nor is her promotion of Jew hatred limited in scope to SFSU’s campus. In a guest lecture in a UCLA anthropology class in the Spring of 2019, Abdulhadi equated Zionism with “white supremacy,” refusing to back down even when a Jewish student tearfully attempted to counter her vitriol.

Abdulhadi has also dedicated herself to encouraging the next generation of Jew haters. For several years she served as faculty advisor to SFSU’s chapter of the General Union of Palestinian Students (GUPS), an SJP surrogate group. During her tenure as faculty advisor, organization president Mohammad G. Hammad was exposed as having written a number of threatening social media posts describing his wish to attack students, teachers and Israeli soldiers and to ally himself with anti-Israel terrorists including the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP). Hammad’s posts included a photo of himself holding a large knife with the caption, “I seriously cannot get over how much I love this blade. It is the sharpest thing I own and cuts through everything like butter and just holding it makes me want to stab an Israeli soldier…” Hammad was investigated for terrorism by the FBI.

Despite her atrocious record, Abdulhadi is still being lauded as a leader in her field. In January 2023, the Middle East Studies Association (MESA) awarded its 2022 Jere L. Bacharach Service Award to Abdulhadi—a dubious honor given MESA’s own record of anti-Semitism and extreme hostility toward Israel. Professor Abdulhadi exemplifies the worst of Jew hatred in academia and deserves her place atop the list of Jew-hating professors.

#2: Hatem Bazian
Professor of Ethnic Studies
University of California-Berkeley

UC-Berkeley Professor Hatem Bazian has a notorious record of promulgating Jew hatred, dating back to his days as a student at San Francisco State University where he served as president of the General Union of Palestinian Students, an extremist anti-Israel group that fomented a virulent anti-Semitism on campus. In 2001, while a graduate student at UC-Berkeley, Bazian co-founded the Hamas front group Students for Justice in Palestine to support the Second Palestinian Intifada. The Second Intifada introduced suicide bombing into the attacks on Israel’s citizens in September 2000.

In the two decades since its founding, chapters of SJP have proliferated across the nation, and are now active on approximately 200 American college and university campuses, broadcasting Hamas propaganda and advocating the destruction of the Jewish state. Bazian also founded the Hamas front group American Muslims for Palestine (AMP) and serves as the chairman of its board. AMP funnels Hamas funds to SJP chapters on American campuses to aid the BDS movement to destroy Israel.

Throughout his academic career, Bazian has promoted classic anti-Semitic tropes and fostered Jew hatred. In May 2002, Bazian participated in a Middle Eastern “cultural assembly” at George Washington High School. Under his leadership, the event the was dedicated to extreme anti-Israel rhetoric including a student-sung rap song that compared Zionists to Nazis, which was accompanied by other students parading with Palestinian flags behind the performer. The high school sent out letters of apology after the event.

At a 2004 anti-war rally in San Francisco, Bazian called for an Intifada, or violent uprising, in America:

“Well, we’ve been watching [an] Intifada in Palestine, we’ve been watching an uprising in Iraq, and the question is that what are we doing? How come we don’t have an Intifada in this country? Because it seem[s] to me, that we are comfortable in where we are, watching CNN, ABC, NBC, Fox, and all these mainstream … giving us a window to the world while the world is being managed from Washington, from New York, from every other place in here in San Francisco: Chevron, Bechtel, [Carlyle?] Group, Halliburton; every one of those lying, cheating, stealing, deceiving individuals are in our country and we’re sitting here and watching the world pass by, people being bombed, and it’s about time that we have an Intifada in this country that change[s] fundamentally the political dynamics in here. And we know … they’re gonna say some Palestinian [is] being too radical. Well, you haven’t seen radicalism yet!”

In July 2017, Bazian retweeted an anti-Semitic meme which plays on classic tropes of Jewish blood libel and also compares Jews to the Nazis. The meme was originally tweeted by infamous anti-Semite Ron Hughes, whose account Bazian follows. It featured a photo of a man presumed to be Jewish, with Hasidic style curls, with the quoted statement: “MOM LOOK! I IS CHOSEN! I CAN NOW KILL, RAPE, SMUGGLE ORGANS & AND STEAL THE LAND OF PALESTINIANS *YAY* ASHKE-NAZI”

Bazian has promoted the idea of a world Jewish conspiracy, telling student protestors on one occasion to “look at the Jewish names on the school buildings” and adding “Take a look at the type of names on the buildings around campus — Haas, Zellerbach — and decide who controls this university.” He has also called the U.S. Congress “an Israeli-occupied territory” and has suggested that the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) controls U.S. foreign policy.

Professor Bazian’s Jew hatred extends to his role as an instructor. He now serves as a lecturer in the Department of Ethnic Studies at the University of California, Berkeley. He also founded the Center for the Study of Documentation of Islamophobia on campus in 2009. The Toronto Sun reported in 2014 that Bazian requires students enrolled in his course on “Islamophobia” to create a Twitter account and tweet weekly on Islamophobia. “I can’t help but feel this is unethical,” commented a student taking the class. “This is his agenda not mine.”

The student noted that Bazian “excludes both the Twitter account requirement AND the final project from his official syllabus”—perhaps an indication that he is trying to conceal his use of the classroom to promote Jew hatred.

The controversial professor has repeatedly defended the anti-Israel terror group Hamas, tweeting an article which disputed Hamas’s status as a terrorist organization. The article claimed that “The Europeans who fought Nazism with arms were labeled ‘terrorist’ by Hitler. Hamas is fighting against the occupation of Palestinian lands and is labeled ‘terrorist.’” Bazian also spoke at a 2018 event hosted by American Muslims for Palestine and other Hamas-linked anti-Israel groups which promoted the cause of Hamas-affiliated insurgents who participated in the so-called “Great Return March,” which in truth was an attack on Israel’s borders.

In truth, Israel does not occupy one square inch of Palestinian or Arab land. It was built on land confiscated from the Turks who are neither Arabs nor Palestinians, and given to the Jews by the United Nations in 1948. The Arabs who were given 80% of the so-called Palestine Mandate promptly attacked the new Jewish state with the goal of “pushing the Jews into the sea.”

These facts do not stop Bazian from delegitimizing and demonizing Israel. The professor retweeted a February 2021 tweet which asked rhetorically: “Is there a single Jewish politician of prominence in Israel who does not publiclly call for ethnic cleaning of all Palestinians?”

For his voluminous record in spreading Jew hatred and defending Israel’s terrorist enemies, Professor Bazian belongs on the list of America’s worst Jew-hating professors.

#3: Lara Sheehi
Professor of Psychology
George Washington University

Professor Lara Sheehi’s mandatory diversity class at George Washington University comes with a non-optional quotient of Jew hatred. On the first day of the class, which students enrolled in the Professional Psychology Program at the university are required to take, Sheehi asked students to describe their cultural background and heritage. When a student identified herself as Israeli, the professor responded, “It’s not your fault you were born in Israel.”

According to a complaint filed in early 2023 with the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights by the Jewish nonprofit StandWithUs, “During the Fall 2022 semester, Jewish and Israeli students in the Program’s mandatory diversity course were singled out for repeated and persistent harassment when their Jewish and Israeli identities were disparaged by faculty and peers.”

The first day of class was only the prelude to a long semester of harassment for Jewish students. Sheehi also invited Israeli academic, Dr. Nadera Shalhoub-Kevorkian, to give an address on campus. Shalhoub-Kevorkian is a notorious anti-Semite who has invoked ancient blood libels against the Jewish people by falsely accusing Israel of testing experimental weapons on Palestinian children.

During her speech, Shalhoub-Kevorkian made comments demonizing Jews and Israelis, stating that “good deeds done by Jews and Israelis are done to mask sinister activity.” She stated that Israel’s humanitarian efforts across the globe were an attempt to “use tikkun olam [the Jewish value of bettering the world] to camouflage [Israel’s] oppressive power.” She further advocated for violent “resistance” against Israel (a euphemism for terrorism) and praised a Palestinian teenager who participated in the violent and unprovoked stabbing of an Israeli child in 2015.

Following Shalhoub’s outrageous and anti-Semitic diatribe, Jewish students in Sheehi’s class described in class why the address had made them feel “vulnerable and unsafe.” One Jewish student correctly labeled the talk as a two hour diatribe against the Jews and expressed her doubt that the university would allow any other cultural or religious minority to be thus targeted.

Instead of validating and addressing these students’ legitimate concerns, Professor Sheehi outright denied that the lecture had amounted to anti-Semitism. She claimed that “anti-Zionism is not antisemitism,” and asserted that this declaration was a “non-negotiable truth” like a “historical fact.” Incredibly, Sheehi took this line of thought even further, adding that “Zionism in and of itself indicates that Jewish folks are different. There are many people who say that Zionism in and of itself is an antisemitic movement. Why? Because it locates that Jewish folks are that much more different that they need to have a space unto themselves.”

Having failed to persuade Professor Sheehi of their concerns, Jewish students in the class tried several times to bring their concerns to the university administration and to ask for an alternative to taking her required course. The GWU administration was not responsive. Even worse, once Sheehi learned that these students had complained about her to the administration, she began spreading lies about them, calling them “combative” and racist and ultimately filing disciplinary charges against them.

“She turned the faculty against the Jewish students by spreading lies about us and our conduct, she disparaged us in front of our classmates, calling us Islamophobes,” a student from the course, speaking anonymously, told The Algemeiner. “She smeared our name in a community where success as a therapist really depends on relationships with our faculty supervisors and our colleagues. The disciplinary proceedings effectively silenced us, making it clear that you can’t be a Jew and you can’t speak up about antisemitism safely in this program.”

While Professor Sheehi’s conduct in the classroom has only recently come under scrutiny, it is clear that her Jew hatred—and likely her expression of it in the classroom—has been going on for years.

The Canary Mission, an organization dedicated to exposing anti-Semitism, has collected a number of her tweets and comments. On August 4, 2020, in response to a story about Israel offering aid to Lebanon in the wake of a deadly industrial explosion, Sheehi tweeted: “F**K YOU AND F**K YOUR ‘AID’. Destroy Zionism and commit to land back, then we’ll take you seriously you f**king genocidal f**ks. F**k you.”

In April 2022, Sheehi tweeted: “MY RAGE CAN LIGHT A THOUSAND SUNS RIGHT NOW. F**k ALL settlers. #LongLiveTheResistance #PalestineWillBeFree.” As the Canary Mission website explains, “Among Palestinians and anti-Israel activists, the term ‘resistance’ can be a euphemism for nationalistic terror. It is often used to excuse or even glorify anti-Israel and anti-Semitic violence.”

For her blatant discrimination and abuse of Jewish students and her unwarranted hostility and wishes for violence against the Jewish homeland, Professor Sheehi deserves to be named one of the top Jew-hating professors in America.

#4: Abbas Ghassemi
Teaching Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering
University of California-Merced

UC-Merced Professor Abbas Ghassemi has become notorious for his rabid Jew-hatred expressed in both English and Farsi on a now-deleted twitter account.

In June 2020, Ghassemi shared a cartoon caricature of the “Zionist Brain,” which contained a “frontal money lobe,” “world domination lobe,” a “terrorism centre,” “Holocaust Memory Center,” “Self Pity Lobe” and “compulsive lying olfactory.” A caption under the image reads: “Note: The ‘compassion for others’ gland is not shown due to its small and underdeveloped nature. Best viewed under a microscope.” Ghassemi then commented on this outrageous display of Jew-hatred, stating: “…reality bites!!!!!!”

In November of 2020, he again displayed his deranged hatred for the Jewish people, sharing a graphic titled “Jewish Victim Card” which stated, “As a Jewish person if I am accused of anything I am in no part criminally responsible. All accusations are fueled by anti-Semitism…If there is any doubt, please refer to the Holocaust.” A caption accompanying the image stated, “Here in [America] you can criticize God but not [Israel][chin-scratching emoji].”

Professor Ghassemi has also made numerous tweets promoting classic anti-Semitic tropes about Jews controlling the world media and the economy. “[T]he Zionists and IsraHell interest have embedded themselves in every component of the American system, media, banking, policy, commerce, … just a veneer of serving US interest and population – everyone pretends that is the case,” he tweeted in December, 2020. “[T]he entire system in America, government, banking, media, …. is owned and operated by the Zionists and IsraHell,” Ghassemi stated in another tweet. “Everyone pretends like this is America, land of liberty and beacon of light. Doing criminal acts under this cover is prescribed from the Zionist masters!”

Anti-Semitic blood libel tropes also feature in Ghassemi’s social media activism. In October of 2020, Ghassemi shared a tweet featuring an Israeli plane that had the word “Peace” written in blood on it, alongside a Palestinian child with a knife in his back. The caption for this horrifying image read, “Death to israel.”

In November, 2020, Ghassemi shared a tweet accusing Israel of “50 years of brutality” and added, “They have extorted $$$ from everyone that has been doped everywhere under every auspices including religion, Judaism and Christianity. Zionists and the thugs in IsraHell lack human decency and principles!”

In November 2020, Ghassemi marked the occasion of the presidential election by sharing a tweet stating, “Trump or Biden? Democrat or Republican? What difference does it make when American policy is determined by the Zionists? What difference does it make when the Zionists ask the United States for the colonization and arrogance of other countries? #AmericanDelusion.” The tweet was accompanied by an image of two hands representing the nations of Israel and America shaking, while spilling blood on a map of “Palestine.” Ghassemi commented on this graphic promotion of anti-Semitism: “Right on. Well said. The entire system has been Owens and operated by Zionist and IsraHELL for a very long time, no matter who is propped up in politics and every other sector!”

Ghassemi’s hatred for America and Israel is matched only by his appreciation of the Lebanese terrorist organization, Hezbollah, which has called for the annihilation of Israel and the Jewish people.

On November 4, 2020, Ghassemi shared a tweet pretending to illustrate a write-in vote for Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah in the American presidential election. “Love it!!!!,” Ghassemi wrote.

When news of Ghassemi’s abhorrent and abundant Jew hatred first made headlines in late 2020, UC-Merced initially chose to respond with a statement calling his views “repugnant.” Only after outrage from Jewish groups, did the university open an inquiry into whether the professor had violated the Faculty Code of Conduct. Notably, the twitter account Ghassemi used to share the virulent anti-Semitic conduct made note of his academic title and his attached biography stated that he was a professor at UC-Merced. As of the writing of this report in April 2023, Ghassemi is still listed as a “Teaching Professor” on UC-Merced’s website and abundantly deserves to be labeled one of the most anti-Semitic professors in America.

5: Marc Lamont Hill
Professor in Media Studies and Production
Temple University

Marc Lamont Hill has had a long and storied career in both the media and academia, but his time in both fields has been sullied by his rabid anti-Semitism and support for Israel’s terrorist adversaries.

Hill has repeatedly glorified anti-Israel terrorists and promoted terrorism against the Jewish state. The professor has enthusiastically supported convicted Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) terrorist Ali Jiddah who planted hand grenades in downtown Jerusalem which injured nine innocent people. Hill posted a photo of himself with Jiddah on Instagram, praising him as a “true revolutionary,” and assisted with a GoFundMe campaign for the terrorist, calling him “instrumental in the struggle for Palestinian liberation.”

The professor has also lauded terrorist leader Marwan Barghouti, who is currently imprisoned for participating in suicide bombings and attacks that killed five Israelis during the second Intifada. Hill posted a mural featuring Barghouti that had been painted on Israel’s security fence on Instagram with the caption, “Art as Resistance.”

So enamored is the professor of anti-Israel violence, that Hill proudly boasts a tattoo featuring a man who is masked in a keffiyeh and holding a rock, a form of violent “resistance” against the Israeli Defense Forces that can have deadly consequences.

Hill’s rabid anti-Semitism was even too extreme for leftist media giant CNN. In 2018, Hill gave a speech at the United Nations, labeling the creation of Israel a “Nakba” or “catastrophe” and calling for “a free Palestine from the river to the sea,” a phrase often used by Israel’s enemies and terrorists to promote the total destruction of the Jewish state. Hill also demonized Israel, falsely accusing the Jewish state of “ethnic cleansing” along with “hatred and imperialism, and white supremacy, and patriarchy, and homophobia”—charges that are laughable when Israel is compared to its Arab neighbors where homosexuality is a criminal offense. Following this absurd address, CNN fired Hill from his position as a contributor to the network.

Hill has flaunted his friendship with notorious anti-Semite and Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, who has labeled Jews “termites” and “satanic” and claimed that “They control everything and mostly everybody.” In August 2016, Hill posted a photo of himself with Farrakhan on Instagram, commenting “Been blessed to spend the last day with Minister Louis Farrakhan. An amazing time of learning, listening, laughing, and even head nodding to music. God is Great.”

Also in 2016, Hill shared an interview with Farrakhan on Facebook in which the Nation of Islam leader again declared the Jews to be “Satanic” and responsible for “the blood shedding and the mischief that’s going on in the world.” Farrakhan went on to predict the downfall of the Jews, stating, “Once the world sees this Synagogue of Satan as it really is and knows the players, they fear what will happen to them. The world will turn against them and that is happening now as we speak.”

It is clear from Hill’s own words and deeds that he shares Farrakhan’s views on Israel and the Jewish people. In an online panel discussion from 2021, Hill spoke positively about how “Black Lives Matter very explicitly is talking about the dismantling of a Zionist project, dismantling of a settler-colonial project and very explicitly embracing BDS.” He has repeatedly promoted the genocidal Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel, and has posted videos of BDS movement founder Omar Barghouti. He has also repeated anti-Semitic blood libel tropes, claiming that Israel was founded on laws “that have been co-signed in ink but written in the blood of the innocent” and that the Jewish state is “poisoning” Palestinian water.

For propagating blatant Jew hatred and lies about the state of Israel and valorizing the terrorists who have killed innocent Israeli citizens, Professor Marc Lamont Hill deserves his place among the worst Jew-hating professors.

#6: Jasbir Puar
Professor of Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies
Rutgers University

Professor Jasbir Puar serves as an Associate Professor of Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at Rutgers University and also directs the University’s Graduate Program for the Women’s and Gender Studies Department. Puar is notorious for promoting ancient blood libel tropes against the Jewish people, a form of anti-Semitism that dates back to the Middle Ages.

Among her ridiculous claims, Puar has accused Israelis of harvesting the organs of Palestinians, intentionally maiming them, and stunting the growth of Palestinians by limiting the availability of food and resources to them, a strategy that Puar describes as a “biopolitical tactic that seeks to render impotent any future resistance.”

In a speech at Vassar College in 2016, Puar claimed that the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) was responsible for “more than 120 deaths by field assassinations of young Palestinian men, largely between the ages of 12 to 16,” without mentioning how those young men perpetrated terrorist violence, including stabbings, against Israelis. She also claimed that the nation of Israel had “mined for organs for scientific research” from the Palestinian population.

Puar’s book, The Right to Maim, repeats these anti-Semitic and blatantly false accusations, accusing Israel of “creating injury and maintaining Palestinian populations as perpetually debilitated, and yet alive, in order to control them” and also claiming that children are a “prime target” of Israel, when in fact the IDF goes to extreme lengths to avoid injury to children and civilians despite Hamas’s use of civilians, and particularly children, as human shields.

Puar has repeatedly used her academic position to promote the Hamas-funded Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel, an anti-Semitic plot to weaken and ultimately destroy the Jewish state. She also serves as an Advisory Board member of the US Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (USACBI), which is directed at Israeli universities and cultural institutions.

Puar has defended violent acts of terrorism against Israelis, labeling them acts of “resistance” and stating that “we need BDS as part of organized resistance and armed resistance in Palestine as well.” She has also repeatedly praised anti-Israel terrorists.

In October 2020, Puar tweeted a video of a Zoom panel which featured a taped message from convicted terrorist Leila Khaled, a member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) who participated in two airplane hijackings in the 1970’s. In the video posted by Puar, Khaled promoted violence against Israel, stating: “We have used all means of struggle and we are still determined to continue using all means of struggle including armed struggle.”

While many anti-Israel advocates deceitfully insist that their demonization of Zionism is not anti-Semitic, Puar herself has conflated Zionists and Jews, referring to Jews as “Zios” in a Facebook exchange with another faculty member. That same term, “Zios,” was commonly used by former KKK Grand Wizard David Duke to refer to the Jews.

For her abhorrent record of promulgating Jew hatred and supporting anti-Israel terrorists, Professor Puar is among the worst Jew-hating professors in America.

#7: Hamid Dabashi
Hagop Kevorkian Professor of Iranian Studies and Comparative Literature
Columbia University

Columbia University Professor Hamid Dabashi’s academic career has been repeatedly marred by outbursts of Jew hatred and the promulgation of anti-Semitic tropes and conspiracies. In 2004, the professor’s disdain for Jews and Israel was exposed in the film Columbia Unbecoming, which was produced by Jewish students on campus, and which named Dabashi and a handful of his colleagues in the university’s Department of Middle East and Asian Languages and Cultures (MEALAC) as contributing to an atmosphere of anti-Semitism on campus.

The film cites quotes from Dabashi, including one from an article he wrote where he described Israeli Jews as suffering from “a vulgarity of character that is bone-deep and structural to the skeletal vertebrae of its culture” due to “Half a century of systematic maiming and murdering of another people.” Another student mentioned an incident in which Dabashi suddenly cancelled class in order to attend an anti-Israel rally because he felt it was his “moral duty” to do so.

In the years since these initial accusations of anti-Semitism, Dabashi has only intensified his attacks on Israel and the Jewish people. He has repeatedly promoted anti-Semitic conspiracy theories which claim that the Jews act as a “cabal” to control world affairs and consolidate their power.

In a December 2009 article, Dabashi stated that “the pro-Israeli Zionist lobby in the US banked and invested heavily in infiltrating, buying, and paying for all the major and minor corridors of power.” In an editorial published in July 2008, Dabashi wrote that “[former United States President Barack] Obama began his speech in front of AIPAC by falling right into the oldest trap that the American Zionist cabal has in its bag of tricks — dispatching its lunatic fringe to spread rumours (via emails) of facts and fantasies…” More recently, in May of 2018, Dabashi posted on Facebook that “Every dirty treacherous ugly and pernicious act happening in the world just wait for a few days and the ugly name of ‘Israel’ will pop up as a key actor in the atrocities…”

Professor Dabashi has also promulgated Jew hatred by comparing the democratic nation of Israel with the Islamic terror state ISIS and Nazi Germany, another common trope of anti-Semites.

In April of 2019, Dabashi wrote on Facebook (in a now-deleted post): “What’s the difference between ISIS and ISRAEL? … ISIS murderous thugs conquered parts of Syria and declared a ‘caliphate,’ no decent human being on planet earth recognized their armed robbery or their ‘caliphate’ – their ISRAELI counterparts meanwhile conquered parts of Syria and declared it part of their Zionist settler colony – no decent human being on planet earth recognizes their armed robbery …”

Dabashi added to this rant by again insinuating that Jews exert power over the media: “ISIS does not have a platoon of clean shaven and well coiffured [sic] columnists at the New York Times propagating the cause of the terrorist outfit as the Zionists columnists do on a regular basis.”

In August of 2014, Dabashi authored an article that compared Gaza to Auschwitz, stating that Israelis share a “sustained murderous history – from Deir Yassin in 1948 to Gaza in 2014,” adding “Is that not Zionism, the ideological foundation stone of being an Israeli?”

In a Facebook post from July 2014, Dabashi again implied that the Israelis are tantamount to Nazis. He placed images of the Warsaw Ghetto and Gaza side-by-side and commented: “Warsaw Ghetto 1943 (the site of Jewish uprising against Nazi barbarism)–Gaza 2014 (the site of Palestinian resistance against Zionist militarism).”

During the so-called “Great March of Return” in 2018, during which Palestinian terrorists repeatedly assaulted the Israel/Gaza border, Dashabi reiterated blood libel tropes depicting the Jews and Israelis as bloodthirsty monsters.

In May of 2018, Dabashi claimed, “As of Tuesday 15 May 2018 Israeli army had cold-bloodedly and in full view of the world murdered more than 100 Palestinians… during the Great March of Return protests held in Gaza’s since 30 March.” Dashabi went on to add, “The Israeli flag, the very term ‘Israel’ are now and forever synonymous with mass murderers… with massacres, with land thieves, with incremental genocide, with war crimes, with crimes against humanity.”

In another post that month, Dashabi described the conflict as “an epic battle between defenseless good and viciously armed evil — with their bare hands and their naked souls and their exposed bodies Palestinians went to face pure evil,” depicting the Israelis as “mass murderers who massacred defenseless Palestinians.”

The professor went on to praise the actions of the violent Palestinians who assaulted the border of a sovereign nation, writing, “Palestinians just taught the world a priceless lesson — a master class in their power of dignity and defiance… and in doing so they told the whole pitiful gang of Zionists from Israel to the US to Saudi Arabia they can go to hell — for Palestinians are not going anywhere from Palestine — Palestine is theirs, they are the master of their own destiny— the inhabitants of their own homeland— neither their own corrupt leadership nor those disgusting colonists occupying their country have a say in the matter.”

For his abominable promotion of anti-Semitic tropes and absurd conspiracy theories targeting Jews and Israel, Professor Hamid Dabashi deserves his place among the worst Jew-hating professors.

#8: Nader Hashemi
Associate Professor, Director of the Center for Middle East Studies
University of Denver

University of Denver Professor Nader Hashemi has engaged in numerous forms of Jew hatred over the course of his academic career, which has included stints teaching at Harvard, UCLA, and Northwestern University. As director of the Center for Middle East Studies at Denver, Hashemi has a position of great influence within his field—and he has repeatedly used it to promote the terrorist organization Hamas, to whitewash violence against the Jews and Israel, and to spread anti-Semitic conspiracy theories to the world at large.

In a lecture on Hamas that was broadcast on YouTube in 2015, Hashemi claimed that Hamas’s participation is necessary to resolving the Arab-Israeli conflict. The professor claimed that after the year 2000, there were “significant attempts by the leadership of Hamas to strike out and to present a more moderate face with respect to a political resolution of the Israel-Palestine conflict”—a farcical claim given the 37 suicide bombings and thousands of rocket attacks launched by Hamas in the intervening years.

During his address, Hashemi also downplayed the horrifying sentiments stated in the Hamas charter which calls for the annihilation of the Jewish people and Israel. While acknowledging the “anti-Semitic” nature of these statements, Hashemi implied that this call for murder was nevertheless irrelevant to achieving peace in Israel/Palestine and quoted a statement from Hamas leader Khaled Mashal who claimed that the Hamas charter is “a piece of history no longer relevant but cannot be changed for internal reasons.” Hashemi also seemingly dismissed the significance of this call to murder the Jews, stating fatuously, “If I had a penny every time this topic was mentioned in the context of Israel-Palestine, I would be an incredibly rich person.”

On another occasion in March of 2016, Hashemi responded to a journalist who brought up the Hamas charter’s call to murder the Jews by labeling it “pro-Israel talking points.”

Professor Hashemi has also repeatedly sought to justify the anti-Semitism of others, claiming in November 2005 that Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s call that Israel should “be wiped off the map” was not due to “ancient ethnic hatreds or Muslim anti-Semitism, but primarily [due to] the trauma and enduring legacy of European colonialism and Israel’s perceived connection with this legacy.”

In November 2015, Hashemi tweeted: “Israeli soldiers kill another Palestinian in Hebron.” He linked an article about a Palestinian who had indeed been shot by Israeli soldiers after he attacked them with a knife during a riot (a fact conveniently not mentioned in his tweet).

Unsurprisingly, given his views on Hamas, Hashemi is a supporter of the genocidal Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel that aims to isolate and destroy the Jewish state. He has also promoted an academic boycott of Israeli universities on social media and has repeatedly demonized Israel on social media, referring to it as guilty of “occupation” and as solely responsible for the conflict in Gaza.

Professor Hashemi’s most controversial comments to date concern his bizarre and anti-Semitic conspiracy theories regarding the violent attack on author Salman Rushdie, who was viciously stabbed in August of 2022 while he prepared to give a public lecture at Chautauqua Institution in New York. While discussing the attack on a podcast, Hashemi suggested that the attack was most likely instigated by “someone online who claimed to be an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps supporter… [who] could have been the Mossad operative.”

Mossad is Israel’s national intelligence agency, the equivalent to the CIA in America. Hashemi further claimed that Mossad’s involvement is “much more likely” than other possible motives. Hashemi’s promotion of this completely baseless conspiracy theory is clearly rooted in Jew hatred.

While the University of Denver sought to distance itself from these bizarre claims, the Middle East Studies Association (MESA) scolded the university for “singling out a faculty member for expressing an opinion, however speculative, and by issuing a statement that suggests agreement with the vicious attacks launched against him…”

For his repeated whitewashing of Hamas and anti-Israel terrorism and his blatant promotion of anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, Professor Hashemi belongs on the list of the worst Jew-hating professors.

#9: Kylie Broderick
Lecturer and Ph.D. Candidate in History
University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill

UNC lecturer Kylie Broderick is only beginning her career in academia—she is a Ph.D. student in history at the Chapel Hill campus—but she is already notorious for her anti-Semitic and anti-Zionist views and her total lack of hesitation in injecting those views into her teaching.

For the past several years, Broderick has taught a course at Chapel Hill on the Israeli/Palestinian conflict and the flagrant Jew hatred expressed by the lecturer has made national headlines.

In a series of public tweets from 2020, Broderick stated directly that she “find[s] it difficult to do role-playing games in class” because “the ‘2 sides’ of most subjects we cover are b/t colonizers/imperialists & oppressed native peoples” and “by ‘2 sides’ I mean there is only 1 legitimate side—the oppressed—versus imperialist propaganda.”

“I don’t ever want to encourage them to believe there is reason to take on good faith the oppressive ideologies of American and Western imperialism, Zionists, & autocrats,” she added.

Broderick has used every tool at her disposal to show her disdain for Israel and the Jewish people, even scheduling a quiz on Yom Kippur, the Jewish day of atonement.

The lecturer has mocked the very idea that she could restrain her biases in the classroom, stating in a November 2021 video that the UNC administration “spent a good deal of time examining my ability to be objective, whatever that means” but that she believes professors ought to “teach justice in the classroom” and that requests from UNC administrators that she meet with Jewish faculty were absurd.

Broderick views herself as an activist for the Palestinian cause and even signed a pledge promising to promote the genocidal BDS movement “in the classroom and on campus.”

Taking a page from the classic anti-Semitism playbook, Broderick also subscribes to bizarre conspiracy theories about Jews controlling the media, stating in an address that the “mobilization of the Hasbara network” and the “allegedly secular media” led to UNC officials asking her to respond to “baseless accusations.” She also alleged that UNC is “playing into a Zionist playbook,” and requires her to teach under “Israel’s rules.” She stated her belief that it is necessary to “dismantle the power that Hasbara and other pro-colonial causes have historically had over universities” so that the pro-Israel media can no longer “dominate the airwaves.”

The North Carolina Hillel chapter has also objected to Broderick’s abhorrent anti-Semitism, stating on the organization’s website that they are “very concerned” that “students who support and have a connection with Israel will be unwelcome or unsafe in [her] class” given her stated views that Israel should not exist and her refusal to “engage with people with other perspectives.”

For her single-minded determination to inject Jew hatred into her scholarship and teaching, Kylie Broderick is among the worst Jew-hating academics in America.

#10: Taurean Webb
Associate Director, Center for the Study of Global Change
Indiana University-Bloomington

Dr. Taurean Webb has claimed to be an advocate for a “just peace in Israel-Palestine,” but his slurs against Jews and Israel, advocacy for a Hamas front group, and deliberate minimization of the Holocaust reveal the depth of his Jew hatred.

Webb is the author of “Journey Toward Justice: A Guide for Congregational Study,” which purports to be a “comprehensive curriculum study plan” that was “specifically designed to aid predominantly Black congregations as they become more aware of the Palestinian crisis and begin to take action on behalf of Palestinian freedom and justice.” Instead, the document is a 68-page screed which uses biblical passages and precepts to frame the founding of Israel as “evil” and a “structural sin.”

Webb demonizes the Jewish state when he writes that “Israel currently occupies Palestine… Conflict arises because native Palestinians are having their lands occupied, their homes destroyed, an extremely high number of political prisoners incarcerated for years on end and are resisting in numerous ways.” He further notes that, “Within the US, however, it is common for national media to portray the Israel/Palestine conflict as ‘tiny’ Israel constantly under the threat of violence from Arab-Muslim enemies,” but undermines this accurate description, claiming it “is largely informed by the rampant domestic culture of Islamophobia and strong US political allegiances with Israel.” Webb also repeatedly refers to the Holocaust as the “European Jewish Holocaust” in order to minimize it and portray it as just one among many “holocausts” that have occurred throughout history.

While some anti-Semites target Jews indirectly through their persecution of the Jewish homeland of Israel, Webb has no compunction about naming Jews as directly promoting white supremacy and portraying them as conspiring to consolidate their power in America, a classic anti-Semitic trope. Webb commented in a YouTube interview: “It’s also a historical fact that American Jewish immigrants have always been a foundational building block for the white supremacist infrastructure in this country…We know that from the data.”

In an academic article titled: “Troubling Idols: Black-Palestinian Solidarity in U.S. Afro-Christian Spaces,” Webb claimed that “U.S. Jews constituted an important base for the U.S. white supremacist structure.” He also extended these conspiracy theories to Israel, claiming that the Jewish state [uses “the idea of ‘chosenness’ and the European Jewish Holocaust as a tactic of racial control.”

Webb repeatedly demonizes and delegitimizes Israel, classic tactics of anti-Semitism. He derides the idea that Israel is the historic ancestral land of the Jews, claiming instead that the United Nations placed the Jewish state there arbitrarily. He repeatedly slurs Israel as racist and existing on occupied land, writing, “There is nothing in the world like living under simultaneous racial caste and military occupation, a condition of historic Palestine since the mid-twentieth century.”

Dr. Webb has also repeatedly expressed his support for Palestinian militants who have committed violent terrorism against Israel. He wrote an article citing the death of Ahmed Erekat as an example of “Israeli military killings of Palestinians” and dedicated the article to the Erekat Family among others. Erekat was in fact killed by Israeli security forces, but Webb leaves out the inconvenient fact that his death occurred after he deliberately drove his car into Israeli soldiers at a checkpoint, an incident that was captured on video.

In a Facebook post made in 2018, and since deleted, Webb referred to the “Holy Land Foundation Five” as “great men” and stated “May our lives forever be changed for the better b/c of their heroism, generosity, & great sacrifice.” The “Holy Land Foundation Five” were the five individuals who were convicted in U.S. federal court for the crime of illegally funneling millions of dollars to the terrorist organization Hamas through their nonprofit group, the Holy Land Foundation.

Webb is also affiliated with the notorious Hamas front group American Muslims for Palestine and has repeatedly served as a featured speaker at the organization’s Annual Palestine Convention. AMP is headed by the notorious anti-Semite and jihad supporter, UC Berkeley professor Hatem Bazian, the co-founder of SJP. AMP’s board is dominated by former leaders of the Holy Land Foundation which was successfully prosecuted by the US government for funding Hamas.

For his blatant anti-Semitism and reprehensible praise for terrorists, Dr. Taurean Webb deserves his place among the worst Jew-hating professors.

Watch Live: House Holds ‘Victims of Violent Crime in Manhattan’ Hearing over Alvin Bragg’s Policies

Crime Killed a Quarter of a Million Black People.

And the racist pro-crime Left wants more.

April 14, 2023 by Daniel Greenfield 20 Comments

Over the last decade, BLM, and assorted leftist and libertarian groups dismantled our criminal justice system. Police forces were defunded, pro-crime prosecutors refused to lock up criminals, federal and state prison systems released tens of thousands of them, and a wave of legislative decriminalization legalized everything from shoplifting, to drug dealing and mugging.

The pro-crime policymaking that eliminated public safety and cost over 3,000 lives in 2020 alone was done under the guise of fighting racism. Statistics which showed that black people were more likely to be arrested, imprisoned or shot during criminal encounters with police were used to spread conspiracy theories falsely accusing the criminal justice system of systemic racism.

What all of these racist conspiracy theories popularized by politicians, the media, and the entertainment industry ignored was that black people were also far more likely to be crime victims. Even as the BLM riots got underway, black people in surveys were strongly opposed to police defunding. The opposition was so vehement that Democrats not only abandoned the issue, but claimed that they had always been opposed to it and ran against their own position.

Despite years of false claims portraying black people as victims of a biased criminal justice system whose police forces are descended from “slave catchers” who repress minorities at the behest of white suburbanites, surveys of black people continue to tell a very different story.

A Pew survey found that while only 33% of white Democrats wanted to reduce crime, 63% of Hispanics and 66% of black people thought that fighting crime should be a priority.

And that’s nothing new.

Leftists and libertarians lied that the War on Drugs was racist when it was actually pushed by black groups, including the NAACP, which demanded the death penalty for drug dealers.

That same Pew survey showed that while only 38% of white Dems answered that reducing the availability of illegal drugs should be a priority, 57% of Hispanics and 60% of black people believed that it should be.

Now a Kaiser Family Foundation survey shows that black people are far more likely to suffer from crime than white people. The survey, meant to generate support for unconstitutional gun ban measures, instead unintentionally demonstrated that crime hurts black people more.

The KFF survey noted that “three in ten black adults (31%) have personally witnessed someone being shot”, “one-third of black adults (34%) have a family member who was killed by a gun” and (32%) say that they worry all the time about themselves or a family member being shot.

One in six of black adults say they don’t feel “safe at all” from gun violence in their neighborhood, compared to 2% of white adults. 1 in 4 also bought a gun to protect themselves.

Gun violence is just another way of saying crime.

Black people are disproportionately affected by crime. Pro-crime policies led to the deaths of an additional 2,244 black people in 2020. According to a Johns Hopkins report, “in 2020, one out of every 1,000 young black males (15–34) was shot and killed” and, “more than half of all black teens (15–19) who died in 2020—a staggering 52%—were killed by gun violence.”

CDC numbers showed that homicide is a leading cause of death among black men under the age of 20, and from the ages of 20 to 44. White men are killed by guns at the rate of 3.15 per 100,000 while black men die at the rate of 48.16 per 100,000. Pro-crime policies increase crime and kill thousands of black people. That’s what a real disproportionate impact looks like.

Every time pro-crime politicians free criminals, pro-crime prosecutors refuse to prosecute violent offenders, and legislatures eliminate bail, the impact is felt most strongly in the black community.

Law enforcement isn’t racist, but getting rid of it is. When a community depends more on a particular service, losing it has a clear disproportionate impact. Keeping the peace, arresting offenders and dispensing justice is one of the few primal duties of government. The breach in the social contract when the government fails to provide peacekeeping services is devastating.

Most crimes are committed by repeat offenders. The only way to interrupt the cycle of violence is to lock them up. Successful tough on crime policies in the 90s made cities safe once again and led to an economic boom in inner cities. Manhattan’s Harlem went from a danger zone to hosting Bill Clinton’s office, but in 2022, crime increased 44%. The Clinton offices have mostly moved down to the Wall Street area, but where they remain in Central Harlem, crime is up 32%. Next door in West Harlem, it’s up 133%. That means Bill is less likely to tour the Apollo Theater, but it also means that the mostly black residents are the ones feeling the worst of it.

Pro-crime activists have spent years regaling us with the suffering of convicts while caring very little about the shattered lives they have left in their wake. Foundations, protest groups, activist organizations and even PACs have spent hundreds of millions lobbying for criminals, fighting for their release and remaking our system to favor perpetrators, not victims. Their political success has come with a very high cost. And much of that burden has fallen on black people.

It is hard to think of any single policy in the last generation that has done more harm to black people or claimed more lives than the pro-crime agenda. Pro-crime activists have falsely claimed that police shootings of black men are a form of genocide. They’re not. Crime is.

One study counted 286,075 firearm deaths among black people from 1990 to 2021. That’s over a quarter of a million deaths. Some of them are due to suicide, but suicides are much lower among black people than white people, and the majority of black gun deaths were homicides.

And seeing a quarter of a million deaths, the pro-crime Left wants even more bodies.

Those quarter of a million deaths have been largely self-inflicted, but, much as with the welfare state, they were aided and abetted by white liberal policymakers who had come to believe that what the black community really needed was for the government to enable its criminals.

Racist liberal condescension continues to destroy black communities, families and lives.

2020 demonstrated that tough on crime policies can save thousands of black lives and, over time, perhaps even hundreds of thousands of black lives. Pro-crime policies are a racist disaster which reduced black people to criminals and then set out to free criminals to help black people.

That’s why 1 out of every 1,000 young black men are dead.

Pro-crime policies are racist. They enable a crime epidemic that has killed more black people than the total number of battlefield casualties for all races in the Civil War. More black people died in the year of Black Lives Matter than our entire death toll in the Iraq War.

Can it get worse than this? In 1991, 12,226 black people were murdered. For the first time, more black people were killed than white people. The numbers are trending that way once again. While the Left claims that highways and dress codes are systemically racist, their pro-crime policies are a racist program that promises liberation but offers only mass death.

WATCH: Hakeem Jeffries Won't Condemn Uncle's Anti-Semitic Comments

Ben Wilson

April 20, 2023

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D., N.Y.) in comments to reporters on Thursday did not denounce anti-Semitic remarks made by his uncle, whom he defended in a newly unearthed college op-ed, merely saying he does not "share any of the controversial views."

"I think I’ve made clear consistently that I do not share any of the controversial views that were expressed by my uncle more than three decades ago," Jeffries said during a Thursday press conference.

Jeffries came under fire last month when CNN surfaced a 1992 opinion piece he wrote as a college activist in which he defended his uncle, Leonard Jeffries, against criticism of his anti-Semitic comments. His uncle had claimed that "rich Jews" were responsible for the slave trade and alleged the existence of "a conspiracy, planned and plotted" by Jewish businessmen in Hollywood to portray black people poorly.

The op-ed contradicts Jeffries's claims over the years that he had only a "vague recollection" of the controversies surrounding his uncle and hadn't looked at the anti-Semitic speeches he made.

In the 1992 op-ed, Jeffries further defended Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, an infamous anti-Semite who defended Adolf Hitler and assailed the "stranglehold that Jews have on this government."

"Dr. Leonard Jeffries and Minister Louis Farrakhan have come under intense fire," Jeffries wrote in 1992. "Where do you think their interests lie?" He claimed his uncle "has challenged the existing white supremist [sic] educational system and long standing distortion of history."

"His reward has been a media lynching complete with character assassinations and inflammatory erroneous accusations," Jeffries added.

Jeffries also compared black conservatives to "House Negroes" during American slavery, calling them "tokens" and "opportunists."

"The House Negro of the slavery era and the Black conservative of today are both opportunists interested in securing some measure of happiness for themselves within the existing social order," Jeffries wrote in college.

Hakeem Jeffries Claims Not to Back Antisemitic Uncle’s Views, Despite Previously Defending Him

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), who has claimed to have a “vague recollection” of the controversy surrounding his antisemitic uncle, told reporters on Thursday that he never supported the views of his uncle, Leonard Jeffries, despite defending him and Islam Leader Louis Farrakhan in his college newspaper.

“I think I’ve made clear, consistently, that I do not share any of the controversial views that were expressed by my uncle more than three decades ago. Not now, not ever,” he told a reporter during a press conference on Thursday when asked about a recent news story revealing an editorial he wrote in his college newspaper.

The minority leader pointed to his over two-decade-long “track record” of being in public service and professional. He claims to have focused on “bringing people together and standing up for every single community, including the black and Jewish communities I proudly represent in Brooklyn.”

The reporter was referring to a recent CNN story that revealed Jeffries defended his antisemitic uncle — a black studies professor who lost his job after making antisemitic remarks — and Farrakhan in his college newspaper. At the time, Jeffries explained that the two were unfairly targeted by “white media” for challenging “the longstanding distortion of history”:

Do you think that a ruling elite would promote individuals who would seek to dismantle their vice like grip on power? Of course not. … Dr. Leonard Jeffries and Minister Louis Farrakhan have come under intense fire. Where do you think their interests lie? Dr. Jeffries has challenged the existing white supremist educational system and the long standing distortion of history. His reward has been a media lynching complete with character assassinations and inflammatory erroneous accusations.

CNN also reported that Jeffries, during his time at Binghamton University and as a member of the executive board for the Black Student Union, had invited his uncle to speak on campus after he made inflammatory comments in the early 1990s, such as “rich Jews” being in the African slave trade and about Jewish executives in the film industry.

Additionally, the minority leader’s editorial went on to criticize “black conservatives” as a “phenomenon,” referring to them as “token Blacks” and “right-wing opportunists” that have bought into “the idea of the American dream,” in addition to comparing them to “house negroes” during American slavery.

“The House Negro of the slavery era and the Black conservative of today are both opportunists interested in securing some measure of happiness for themselves within the existing social order,” Jeffries added. “In both cases, the social order has Blacks occupying the lowest societal echelon.”

National Republican Congressional Committee press secretary Will Reinert, looking to define Jeffries negatively, told Breitbart News, “Hakeem Jeffries is gaslighting you by assuming the media and the American people will ignore his well-documented bigoted remarks if he keeps claiming they never happened.”

Biden Justice Department's Holocaust Remembrance Day Speaker Has an Affinity for Anti-Semites

Chuck Ross

April 18, 2023

Justice Department civil rights chief Kristen Clarke, who in college rubbed shoulders with at least two anti-Semitic scholars, spoke at the agency's Holocaust Remembrance Day event on Tuesday.

In her speech, Clarke spoke of "the enormity of the loss of six million Jews" in the Holocaust and the lessons it provides for ongoing atrocities in "Ukraine, Ethiopia, the Congo, and elsewhere around the world." She mentioned a rise in anti-Semitism in the United States, then pivoted to hate crimes against other racial and ethnic groups.

"Attacks against black people—the most targeted group—and against other marginalized communities continue to increase," she said.

Clarke may not be the ideal choice to represent the Justice Department on the topic of the Holocaust. In college, Clarke rubbed shoulders with black liberation activists known for anti-Semitic views. As the president of Harvard's Black Students Association in 1994, Clarke hosted a speech for Wellesley professor Tony Martin, who promoted false theories that a cabal of Jews orchestrated the global slave trade, the Washington Free Beacon reported.

Clarke defended Martin after outcry over the event as an "an intelligent, well-versed Black intellectual who bases his information of [sic] indisputable fact."

Martin in 2002 gave a talk, "Tactics of Organized Jewry in Suppressing Free Speech," at a conference hosted by a Holocaust denial group, the Institute for Historical Review.

Clarke also served on the editorial board of an academic journal with Amiri Baraka, a black liberationist poet who once blamed Jews for 9/11. Clarke concealed her affiliation with Baraka during her Senate confirmation hearing in 2021 when she told Sen. Mike Lee (R., Utah) that she had never served on "the editorial staff of a journal with Amiri Baraka."

Several left-wing Jewish groups during her confirmation hearing defended Clarke against charges of anti-Semitism. She was narrowly confirmed to the civil rights post in a party-line vote.

The Democrat Left Welcomes Anti-Semites, Cop Haters, and Terrorist Supporters

By Civis Americanus

I reported previously how the left wing of the Democrat Party, including Joe Biden, Barack Obama, and Kamala Harris, came out in support of a disruptive display by three anti-Second Amendment lawmakers in the Tennessee Legislature. The Democrat Left's support for what it calls freedom of expression does not however extend to swimmer Riley Gaines, who was shouted down, terrorized, and allegedly assaulted at San Francisco State University for saying that men like Lia Thomas should not be allowed to compete against women or use the women's locker room. The President of SFSU refused to condemn these credibly alleged violent crimes on her campus.

The Democrat Left and Black Lives Matter

I also reported that, after a hiatus that may have been due (my inference, not a statement of fact) to questions about Black Lives Matter Global Network's use of 501(c)(3) tax exempt money to campaign against Donald Trump in 2020, ActBlue Charities has apparently renewed its relationship with BLM. The Democrat National Committee's website also linked to the BLM movement in 2020, and these sites linked in turn to extremist sites that called for boycotts against and even the destruction of Israel. This puts the Democrat party squarely into the camp that condones or even, in some cases, incites behavior that has no place in a civilized nation like the United States.

1. BLM Glorifies a Jew-Killing Terrorist. Here is BLM Chicago honoring Rasmea Odeh and also supporting the so-called Palestinian right of return, whose agenda is to overwhelm and destroy Israel demographically. The national BLM organization, as represented by Patrisse Cullors, called not only for the destruction of Israel but also for support for Odeh. Odeh was convicted of murdering two Jews with a bomb and trying to murder emergency responders, but the Israelis disarmed the second bomb in time.

o Note how, in contrast to thugs at San Francisco State University being permitted to shout down, threaten, and allegedly assault swimmer Riley Gaines, Israel's supporters and Republicans did not invade BLM Chicago's event to shout down, much less assault, a convicted murderess who is no better than church shooter Dylann Roof, supermarket shooter Payton Gendron, and Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh.

2. BLM Glorifies Cop-Killing Terrorists. BLM thanked Fidel Castro, whom BLM says should "rest in power," for giving refuge to Joanne Chesimard, whom BLM calls "Mama Assata Shakur." BLM has also referred to fugitive Charles Hill as "brother." Chesimard was convicted of executing a New Jersey State Trooper and Hill (allegedly until proven guilty) murdered a New Mexico law enforcement professional, menaced a flight attendant with a weapon, and hijacked an airplane to Cuba. BLM has also referred to Hill's alleged accomplices as "brothers."

o Ann Dorn, the widow of murdered police captain David Dorn whose Black life obviously did not matter to the BLM thug who killed him, said of this movement. "If a foreign organization were tied to nationwide rioting in the U.S., we’d probably call it a terrorist organization." In addition, "A coalition of left-wing racial justice groups that includes the Black Lives Matter national organization has launched an initiative calling for the abolition of the U.S. prison system and the release of all prisoners, including multiple convicted cop killers."

o If an organization (and even the Ku Klux Klan has yet to step over this line as far as I know) talked about "brothers" Dylann Roof and Payton Gendron, it would be obvious that that organization agrees that people should be murdered for praying or shopping while Black. When BLM supports Rasmea Odeh, calls Joanne Chesimard "Mama Assata," refers to Charles Hill and his alleged accomplices as "brothers," and demands the release of convicted cop killers, we can opine reasonably that BLM condones similarly the murder of Jews and law enforcement professionals—and the Democrat party as represented by ActBlue Charities has renewed its support of BLM.

3. BLM Glorifies Fidel Castro. Did I mention that BLM said Fidel Castro should rest in power, and also that Barack Obama offered condolences for Castro's death? Here is what BLM is praising and on what Obama is morally ambivalent: "Over six decades, millions of Cubans were forced to flee their own country, and those accused of opposing the regime were routinely jailed and even killed. …And one thing is clear, history will not absolve Fidel Castro; it will remember him as an evil, murderous dictator who inflicted misery and suffering on his own people." This, American voters, is what Black Lives Matter supports—and the Democrat Left supports Black Lives Matter.

4. BLM Meets the Definition of an Anti-Semitic Hate Group. Disagreement with the government of Israel, which the Israelis themselves do as shown very recently, is not anti-Semitic. The International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA), and even the left-leaning Anti-Defamation League (ADL), however, both define denial of the right of Israel to exist (or, in IHRA's case, denial of the right of the Jewish people to self-determination) as anti-Semitic. BLM, as represented by Patrisse Cullors, rather than some rank and file loose cannon, called for the dismantling of Israel. ADL has also defined the BDS movement as anti-Semitic and BLM supports BDS.

o The Zachor Legal Institute has meanwhile alleged BLM ties with "domestic terror affiliates" of foreign terrorist organizations and the Zionist Organization of America has more information on BLM's anti-Semitic activities.

5. BLM Encourages Looting. Here's a BLM organizer (again, not some rank and file loose cannon) who depicts looting as "reparations." Then BLM cries "racism" when those who act on this incitement, including Caucasian "allies," get life-ruining felony records or even get shot when theft escalates to robbery, as it can easily do if the looters threaten the property owners with violence, as Michael Brown did prior to his fatal encounter with a police officer.

Who Supports Black Lives Matter?

Now let's look at who supports this organization, which supports in turn cop killers, Jew killers, vandals, rioters, looters, and a dictator who murdered countless Cubans.

· Kamala Harris praised the "brilliance" of Black Lives Matter.

· Cornell's expensive Law School, as represented by then-Dean Eduardo Peñalver, went on record as supporting BLM under color of "racial justice." Cornell's President and Trustees have yet to take corrective action for this use of a Cornell web page to disparage a member of its faculty and put the school into the camp of something that meets the ADL and IHRA definitions of an anti-Semitic hate group. State University of New York Buffalo's Law School in-state tuition is roughly a third of Cornell's and you'll probably learn more law, rather than leftist ideology, there as well.

· Hardin-Simmons University, as represented by President Eric Bruntmyer, also lined up with BLM.

· Solid Blue New York City renamed a street for Black Lives Matter.

Democrat Left-infested unions like the Seattle Education Association and PSC-CUNY have joined the anti-Semitic boycott, divestment, and sanctions (BDS) movement so it is clear that Jews are not welcome in these unions. Nor do law enforcement professionals, Cuban-Americans, or property owners of all races who don't want their cars, homes, and stores wrecked in BLM loot-a-thons have a home in today's Democrat party. Use your head and vote Red in 2024.

RJC Demands Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries Explain His Defense of Anti-Semites Leonard Jeffries, Louis Farrakhan

(CNSNews.com) -- Although House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) has repeatedly claimed that as a young man he only had a "vague recollection" about the anti-Semitic views of his uncle, Prof. Leonard Jeffries, a college editorial Jeffries wrote in 1992 reveals that he was well aware of his uncle's radical beliefs and those of Minister Louis Farrakhan.

In response to this recent discovery by CNN, the Republican Jewish Coalition (RJC) issued a statement saying, "Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries owes the Jewish community an explanation as to why he lied and attempted to cover up his defense of these revolting antisemites."

"The added hypocrisy here is particularly jarring: Jeffries recently falsely accused Republicans of not wanting to teach children about the Holocaust, but he’s been exposed as defending antisemites who have said Hitler was a 'great man' and called Judaism a 'dirty religion,'" said the RJC.

"Unfortunately, this is yet another disturbing data point of the Democratic Party embracing and promoting antisemites, from Leonard Jeffries and Louis Farrakhan to Ilhan Omar," added organization.

As CNN reported on Apr. 12, Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries has "for years" claimed that he was "off at college and shielded from controversies surrounding his uncle, black studies professor Leonard Jeffries, who eventually lost his job over incendiary comments about Jewish people."

However, CNN uncoved a commentary written by Jeffries in 1992, when he was a college student at Binghampton University and an executive board member of the Black Student Union (BSU). At that time, the BSU invited the radical Prof. Leonard Jeffries to speak at the school.

On Feb. 26, 1992, Leonard Jeffries spoke at the university, a controversial event that prompted Jewish and pro-Israel students to protest. Prior to the event, Hakeem Jeffries, the nephew of Prof. Jeffries, wrote a commentary that was published (Feb. 21, 1992) in The Vanguard, a publication of the Black Student Union.

In the commentary, Hakeem Jeffries compared Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas and "the Black conservative" to a "House Negro," a slave who worked inside and "sought to emulate the white master." He also criticized the "predominantly white media" for accepting Clarence Thomas, Colin Powell, and Shelby Steele, and promoting them as "examples for us to follow."

Jeffries then wrote, "I find it suspect when the white power structure and their propaganda emissaries, the media, tell us who our leaders should be. Do you think that a ruling elite would promote individuals who would seek to dismantle their vice-like grip on power? Of course not."

"Dr. Leonard Jeffries and Minister Louis Farrakhan have come under intense fire," wrote Jeffries. "Where do you think their interests lie? Dr. Jeffries has challenged the existing white supremacist educational system and the longstanding distortion of history. His reward has been a media lynching complete with character assassinations and inflammatory erroneous accusations."

That was Haakem Jeffries at age 21 writing about his uncle, Leonard Jeffries. Clearly, Hakeem Jeffries was well aware of his uncle's radicalism and that of Louis Farrakhan, contrary to his claims today of a "vague recollection."

Prof. Leonard Jeffries was the chariman of the Black Studies Department at CCNY from 1973 to 1993. In 1991, Jeffries gave a speech in Albany, N.Y.

As reported by the Washington Post, in that speech "Jeffries launched into a tirade against whites generally and Jews specifically. He said that there has been 'a conspiracy, planned and plotted and programmed out of Hollywood [by] people called Greenberg and Weisberg and Trigliani,' and that 'Russian Jewry had a particular control over the movies, and their financial partners, the Mafia, put together a financial system of destruction of black people.'"

"Jeffries turned history upside down and informed his audience that 'everyone knows rich Jews helped finance the slave trade,'" reported The Post. "He also focused his attention on Diane Ravitch, formerly professor of teaching and education at Teachers College, Columbia, now assistant U.S. secretary of education. Ravitch, who is one of the most thoughtful, articulate and persuasive critics of 'multiculturalism,' was dismissed by Jeffries as 'a sophisticated, debonair racist' and 'a Texas Jew.'"

Jeffries speech caused a firestorm in the media and in academic circles. In 1992, he lost his position as chairman of the African-American Studies Department but was reinstated in 1993. In 1995, another professor was elected to the position of chairman.

In its statement, the RJC said, "The disgusting remarks Leonard Jeffries made include: comparing Jews to 'dogs' and 'skunks,' saying that 'rich Jews' financed the slave trade, and saying that Jewish Hollywood executives 'planned and plotted and programmed' a conspiracy to denigrate Black Americans in films.

"At the time, these statements were widely condemned, including by the ADL, former New York Governor Mario Cuomo, and former New York City Mayor David Dinkins."

"But not by Hakeem Jeffries," said the RJC. "Not only was Minority Leader Jeffries well aware of his uncle’s vile antisemitism, he invited his uncle to speak on the campus of Binghamton University – and after Jewish student groups protested the visit, Jeffries led a press conference in support of his uncle, and also penned an editorial where he forcefully defended his antisemite uncle and notorious bigot Louis Farrakhan...."

Democratic Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, 52, was elected to Congress in 2012. Leonard Jeffries, 86, is retired.

Dem House Minority Leader Defended Farrakhan, Antisemitic Uncle

"All Western knowledge is a corruption of Egyptian, i.e. black African thought"

April 14, 2023 by Daniel Greenfield 7 Comments

Some may remember Leonard Jeffries for being the public face of academic racism and antisemitism in the 90s. His views seemed deranged then, but have long since become mainstreamed within academia and the Democrats.

Jeffries headed black studies at New York’s City College and had all sorts of exciting racist views.

Before his July 20, 1991 speech, Dr. Leonard Jeffries was already known for his teaching that blacks are racially superior to whites because blacks, whom he calls “sun people,” have more melanin in their skin than whites, whom he calls “ice people.”

In November, 1990, Dr. Jeffries organized the “Second National Conference on the Infusion of African and African-American Content in the High School Curriculum” in Atlanta. Over 1,000 predominately black educators from around the country attended. According to the November 26, 1990 New Republic, the Atlanta conference reflected “the conviction that all Western knowledge is a corruption of Egyptian, i.e. black African thought [and therefore] schoolchildren, black and white, should be taught everything from a black African perspective.”

Dr. Jeffries declares: “All of the human race is African. We know for a fact that the ancient Hebrews came into the Nile Valley. They came into an African context. Thesis, antithesis. They came in without ten commandments, they went out with ten commandments.”

Speaking at the taxpayer-funded Empire State Black Arts and Cultural Festival in Albany, New York in July 1991, Jeffries complained about a “systematic” and “unrelenting” attack “coming from the Jewish community,” against blacks. “Russian Jewry,” he stated, “had a particular control over the movies, and their financial partners, the Mafia, put together a system of destruction for black people.”

During the same speech, Jeffries said that he had once headed a Jewish fraternity in college. Boasting that he had then been known as “King of the Jews”. But according to the President of Greek Life at the college that Jeffries attended the school has never had a Jewish fraternity.

“Let me clarify my views,” Dr. Jeffries said, after a long exegesis on the role of Jews in the African slave trade, “if they say we are destroying Western civilization with our proposals, then I say let it happen quickly, because Western civilization is nothing more than an institutionalized, sophisticated form of barbarism.”

Jeffries came up recently when Biden’s Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson turned out to have been part of the Harvard black students group that invited the racist to speak. But Jeffries has an even more direct connection at the top of the Democrat political establishment.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) is under fire for defending his antisemitic uncle and Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan after an op-ed he wrote in college over 30 years ago resurfaced this week.

After he was elected to Congress in 2013, Jeffries told the Wall Street Journal that he only had a “vague recollection” of the controversy surrounding his uncle, Leonard Jeffries — a former college professor and department chair of Black Studies at the City University of New York.

That was obviously a ridiculous lie. The Jeffries story was huge at the time and it was Hakeem’s uncle. Black nationalists are still furious about it. So there’s no way Hakeem was unaware of it. He was very aware.

“Do you think that a ruling elite would promote individuals who would seek to dismantle their vice like grip on power?” Jeffries wrote in the piece, published in the Black Student Union’s newspaper, The Vanguard.

“Dr. Leonard Jeffries and Minister Louis Farrakhan have come under intense fire,” Jeffries continued. “Where do you think their interests lie? Dr. Jeffries has challenged the existing white supremacist educational system and long standing distortion of history. His reward has been a media lynching complete with character assassinations and inflammatory erroneous accusations.”

Jeffries’ office maintained on Wednesday that he does not agree with his uncle’s view and believes in “bringing communities together.”

Louis Farrakhan. Enough said. But support for Farrakhan, the Nation of Islam and assorted black supremacists pervades politics and academia. Nearly every Congressional Black Caucus member, including Obama, had met with Farrakhan. And the House Dem Minority Leader used to cheer Farrakhan on.

After the story broke, House Dems lined up to defend Rep. Hakeem Jeffries including Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz.

“As native NYers, Leader @RepJeffries and I became fast, dear friends. I saw how he embodied the Jewish values of tikkun olam (repairing the world) and gemilut hassadim (giving love and kindness). While others foment antisemitism, Hakeem Jeffries always leads in the face of hate,” she despicably tweeted.

There’s no antisemitism that Jewish House Dems won’t enable.

Mark Levin: Biden and the Democrat Party Are ‘Tolerating’ a ‘Very Ugly’ Antisemitism

Conservative radio host Mark Levin slammed the Democrat Party for “tolerating” antisemitism, saying the left would sooner call former President Trump a white supremacist than address its own history of Jew-hatred.

On his Fox news show, Life, Liberty & Levin, the TV host on Sunday highlighted a speech by Nation of Islam cult leader and rabid antisemite, Louis Farrakhan, in which he attacked the Jewish people but praised members of the so-called Squad, Reps Ilhan Omar and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

“Jewish power has all of our people the knowledge, wisdom, and talent afraid. But just look at what these people control. And every door that leads to power, they have a sentinel on watch. Somebody has to take on the synagogue of Satan. And here we are. What good is your vote if the man you voted for has to go to somebody that you never elected? Behind the door to get instructions. And the Jews have become wealthy just by loaning money, charging you interest and the stranglehold the Jews have on this government,” Fox News cited Farrakhan as saying at the Saviors Day event.

Farrakhan has a “significant impact” on the Democrat Party, Levin said, and called out President Joe Biden for not condemning the speech or Farrakhan.

“Is there a reason Joe Biden didn’t condemn this? Is the reason Kamala Harris didn’t condemn this? Is a reason why nobody at the White House has mentioned it? Is there a reason why the Washington press corps blows this off? Yeah, there are reasons for this,” he said.

He went on to note that Farrakhan was invited to the Congressional Black Caucus for lunch on Capitol Hill.

“Why did they invite this man? Because the Democrat Party has a problem,” the host argued.

Citing an article from Kevin Williamson at the National Review, he said Democrats have a “minor socialist problem.” Williamson wrote:

They have a major problem in the form of Jew-hating weirdos. Prominent among them, the Reverend Louis Farrakhan of the so-called Nation of Islam. Farrakhan has been out and proud, Jew-hating weirdo for many decades. But Democrats still feel the need to make gestures of obeisance before him. Anti-Trump leaders such as Tamika Mallory or Linda Sarsour of the Women’s March, have embraced Farrakhan and courted his favor. Barack Obama came a-calling in 2005 when he was ramping up his political career. The Congressional Black Caucus has consulted him. Bill Clinton stood alongside him at Aretha Franklin’s funeral, implicitly elevating the cult leader. California Democrats Barbara Lee, now wants to be a senator, and Maxine Waters attended Farrakhan’s public events, and Obama administration veteran, Eric Holder, posed for a picture with him.

Farrakhan is an anti-Semite. About that there is no real debate. Eric Holder. Maxine Waters. Others who confer status and influence on Farrakhan and his gang. Maybe they aren’t anti-Semitic. They certainly are collaborators.

Levin charged the Democrats with unbridled hypocrisy, accusing Biden of racism.

“This effort to try and turn conservatism into the KKK, into neo-Nazi ism is really amazing, especially considering the history of the Democrat Party and its embrace of the KKK and slavery and segregation and Jim Crow. Despite its history of filibustering the 1964 Civil Rights Act and the 1965 Voting Rights Act, despite its current president, Joe Biden being a racist and segregationist early in his career opposing public school integration, calling it a jungle,” he said.

Antisemitism is quickly spreading, Levin continued, and it’s becoming “very, very ugly.”

“The President of the United States is saying almost nothing about any of this. The Democrat leadership is tolerating anti-Semitism.”

Ticketmaster makes money off event where Farrakhan assailed 'stranglehold that Jews have on this government'

The ticketing giant hated by Taylor Swift fans and everyone else who has ever tried to buy concert tickets is now under fire from Jewish activists for selling tickets to a Louis Farrakhan event in which the minister defended Adolf Hitler and predicted another Holocaust against Jews. But many of Ticketmaster's biggest critics on Capitol Hill don't seem to care.

Ticketmaster, which charges service fees on each ticket it sells, raked in money selling tickets to Farrakhan's annual Saviours' Day conference in Chicago last weekend. During his speech at the event, Farrakhan assailed the "stranglehold that Jews have on this government" and claimed "Jewish power is what has all of our people of knowledge and wisdom and talent afraid."

The event was met with crickets on Capitol Hill, with almost no one in Congress speaking out against Ticketmaster for making money off of the Farrakhan event. The reaction is a stark contrast to lawmakers' response when Ticketmaster bungled sales last year for Taylor Swift's much-anticipated concert tour. That fiasco was in the news cycle for weeks and led to a Department of Justice investigation as well as a Senate hearing. Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle say Ticketmaster and its parent company, LiveNation, have a monopoly over the ticket industry, leading to price-gouging and a failure to crack down on automated scalping.

"Daily reminder that Ticketmaster is a monopoly, it’s merger with LiveNation should never have been approved, and they need to be reigned in [sic]," wrote Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) in a Twitter post in November. Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R., Wash.), now the chairwoman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, sent a letter to Ticketmaster last year raising concerns about its practices, while Sens. Richard Blumenthal (D., Conn.) and Amy Klobuchar (D., Minn.) called on the Department of Justice to investigate. None of their offices responded to a request for comment on Ticketmaster's Farrakhan sales.

Only Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R., Tenn.)—who also spoke out about the Taylor Swift debacle—weighed in on the Farrakhan controversy when contacted by the Washington Free Beacon.

"It is extremely concerning that Ticketmaster is choosing to use its platform to elevate and promote a well-known anti-Semite. The targeting of the Jewish people has gone on far too long and must stop," she said.

Entertainment industry leaders and Jewish groups had urged Ticketmaster to drop the Farrakhan event from its sales platform, but Ticketmaster did not waver. The Anti-Defamation League also sent a letter to Ticketmaster on Friday to "note that the Nation of Islam’s annual Saviors’ Day event regularly serves as a platform to amplify this hate and bigotry." The group said it was not calling on the company to halt ticket sales.

The event came as anti-Semitism is on the rise in the United States. Hate crimes against Jews have surged in major cities, while celebrities like Kanye West and Kyrie Irving have promoted anti-Jewish conspiracy theories on social media. Farrakhan during his speech praised West as a "very great brother" and "genius."

"Ye broke into the fashion industry, that’s controlled by Jews," said Farrakhan. "Don’t be mad with them. They’re in every avenue that leads to power."

"Somebody has to take on the synagogue of Satan, and here we are," he said. "We cannot let them take the country."

Farrakhan criticized Jews who use the phrase "Never Again" when discussing the Holocaust.

"You can say that to men, but you can’t say that to God. Because the Bible says, behold, the day cometh that shall burn—as a what?—as an oven. And those who do wickedly, He will slay them."

"God is not unjust; when he kills you, you know you deserved it," he added.

Farrakhan also defended the Nazis by citing an argument he supposedly heard from a Jewish rabbi on TV.

"Usury is what has made [the Jews] strong. I heard a Jewish rabbi, maybe about six weeks ago, he came on television talking about Adolf Hitler," said Farrakhan. "And he said Hitler was right. He said Hitler went against usury and Hitler attacked pornography that the Jews had put on the Germans."

Farrakhan and his group, the Nation of Islam, promote numerous conspiracy theories about Jews, including that Jews control the government, the media, and global financial institutions.

Last week, a group of entertainment industry leaders sent a letter to Ticketmaster CEO Michael Rapino calling on the company to drop the sales of the Farrakhan event and citing the preacher’s long history of anti-Semitism.

Albanian Migrant Murders His French Host After Argument Over Religion

Then he sends a video of the body to a neighbor over Snapchat.

March 2, 2023 by Hugh Fitzgerald 3 Comments

Another month, another murder of his European host by a Muslim migrant. This time, it took place in France, where an “argument over religion” – I think we can figure out what that must have been about – led to a Muslim migrant killing his French host, a man who had generously provided him with board and room for the last two years. More on this horrific event can be found here: “Albanian migrant accused of killing his French host over an argument about religion, sends video of body to neighbor over Snapchat,” France Bleu, February 22, 2023:

An Albanian migrant stabbed his French host to death after the two engaged in an argument over religion earlier in the day, according to French public prosecutors.

The article does not say that the Albanian was a Muslim. But nearly 60% of Albanians are Muslims; as they are less prosperous than Albanian Christians, they are more heavily represented among the Albanians who leave the country as economic migrants seeking to take advantage of the benefits available in the welfare states of Western Europe. Furthermore, had this Albanian migrant been a Christian, it is doubtful that there would have been quite so violent an argument “over religion” with another Christian, but all too plausible an occurrence between an Albanian Muslim and a French Christian.

The stabbing homicide took place during the night of February 14 to 15, 2023, in the west-central French town of Poitiers, according to the public prosecutor.

A bittersweet memory fro students of European history: It was at Poitiers, in 732, that a French force under Charles Martel turned back an invading army of Muslim Arabs and prevented Islam, as Gibbon wrote, from sweeping over Europe. Now in the same city, a member of what can be viewed as a new Muslim invading force, consisting of millions of economic migrants, has slaughtered an innocent Christian in an argument over religion.

The 30-year-old Albanian suspect stabbed the 44-year-old caregiver inside the home they were sharing at the time. The suspect is illegally in France and is subject to a deportation order that was never executed, an issue that has plagued France, including in relation to the Algerian migrant who raped and murdered 12-year-old Paris schoolgirl Lola last year.

Like others in Western Europe, with the notable exception of the Danes, the French have shown themselves incapable of enforcing their own deportation laws. In the second quarter of 2022, France issued 33,450 deportation orders. But for that same quarter, France managed to carry out only 3,590 deportations. That’s an enforcement rate of a little over 10%. It’s not hard to understand. The French police have their hands full, given the high rates of criminality among the country’s six million Muslims, in trying to investigate and track down those committing street robberies, house burglaries, car break-ins and burnings, assaults, sex crimes, and engaged, too, in drug trafficking. They also have a problem in getting North African countries, especially Algeria, to take back their own nationals whom the French are trying to deport.

The suspect apparently gave himself away after he sent a video of the victim’s naked body to a neighbor over Snapchat, according to a report from French newspaper France Bleu.

He told me that he had ‘executed’ the guy who took him in,” this neighbor told La Nouvelle République. “I asked where his roommate was, he said ‘at his house’ before sending me a video.”

The neighbor, who appeared to know the migrant and the man hosting him, said the murder victim was “a very nice person, with a big heart. (…) He let the other man live in his residence for two years and paid his bills. How ungrateful.”

What an understatement: “How ungrateful.” This ghastly murder may be taken as representative of a larger tale, that of large-hearted, much too trusting, Infidel Europe, opening wide its gates during the past two decades, to let in tens of millions of Muslim economic migrants. These migrants have settled in the midst of indigenous Infidels where they take advantage of all the benefits that the generous welfare states of Western Europe have on offer: free or highly subsidized housing, free medical care, free education, family allowances, unemployment benefits, and more. Like the Muslim in this case who took whatever this “very nice person, with a big heart” provided him – he even “paid his [the killer’s] bills” according to the neighbor – the millions of Muslims who have been living on the generosity of Infidels, yet still regard them, as the Qur’an insists, as “the most vile of created beings.” Some of these economic migrants take what they can from the state, then “round out” their monthly take by engaging in petty property crimes, chiefly shoplifting, pickpocketing, street muggings, and house burglaries.

The neighbor then alerted the police who arrived at the apartment to find the victim with numerous stab wounds lying dead inside the apartment’s bathtub. Police found blood located on the walls of the apartment, but the floor had already been cleaned.

According to a source close to the investigation, the suspect explained that he had an argument with the victim during the day on Tuesday related to religion, which police believe may have been the motive behind the murder.”

Now what “argument related to religion” between the two might have led to the Muslim’s homicidal rage? Could it have been a critical comment that the landlord let slip about Islam? Or something about Muhammad not being quite the “Perfect Man” (al-insan al-kamil) and “Model of Conduct” (uswa hasana) that Muslims take him to be? Might the landlord have said something about Muhammad consummating his marriage to little Aisha when he was 54 and she was nine years old? Or could he have criticized the treatment of women in Islam, where husbands are allowed to “beat” their wives if they are even suspected of being disobedient? Could host and guest have been discussing religion for some time, with the Muslim attempting to convert his host to the One True Faith, and becoming angry when the Frenchman refused to consider such conversion? There are so many possible “arguments over religion” that could lead a thin-skinned Muslim, determined to protect his faith from any and all criticisms coming from an Infidel, to suddenly fly into a homicidal rage. Will the police follow that line of inquiry, or will they try to maintain the fiction that the murderer must, of course, have been suffering from a mental illness? When will Islam itself, and what the Qur’an and hadith inculcate, be subject to investigation, and discovered to be the fons et origo of so much of the extreme violence that Muslims too often exhibit?
