Jury Decides Stabbing White People Is Okay If They Use A Racial Slur

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A Portland jury acquitted a man who admitted to stabbing a stranger after video captured the victim using a racial slur in the aftermath of the attack.

Multnomah County prosecutors charged Gary Edwards, 43, with second-degree assault for the July 7 knife attack on Gregory Howard Jr. near the Union Station MAX stop, according to Oregon Live. Edwards faced five years and 10 months in state prison under Oregon’s Measure 11 sentencing law.

Edwards testified he acted in self-defense after Howard yelled the slur at him. Howard denied using the word before the stabbing.

Transit cameras showed Edwards approaching Howard from behind with a fixed-blade knife as Howard sat on a bench. Howard jumped up and pushed Edwards when he saw him. The two scuffled briefly before Edwards stabbed Howard in the shoulder.

Defense attorney Daniel Small told jurors the key evidence came later, when security officers recorded Howard shouting the racial slur on body cameras.

“What other than racism could explain why Mr. Howard perceived hatred, animosity and aggression from a complete stranger,” Small asked the jury. (Read more from “Jury Decides Stabbing White People Is Okay If They Use A Racial Slur” HERE)

Teacher Wins $518K in Defamation Case Over False Racism Claim by School District

/0 Comments/in , /by

A Maryland educator has been awarded over half a million dollars after a jury found a local school board defamed him by falsely accusing him of racist behavior. Dan Engler, a former English teacher at Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School, sued Montgomery County Public Schools after he was wrongly implicated in a “hate bias” incident.

The controversy began in 2023 when two Black students refused to sit in their assigned seats in Engler’s classroom. Later, they reported the teacher allegedly made a racially insensitive remark, claiming he said he wouldn’t be able to tell them apart. The allegation quickly escalated when school principal Shelton Mooney issued a school-wide email stating a “hate bias incident” had occurred—without naming Engler but making it easy for the school community to identify him.

According to court filings, Engler never made the comment attributed to him. Instead, he had told the students he preferred they sit in their assigned seats so he could better learn their names. The lawsuit asserted that Engler was never given a chance to explain his side before the administration publicized the accusation.

On those grounds, the Montgomery County Circuit Court jury sided with Engler, awarding him $500,000 in damages and an additional $18,000 in prejudgment interest, totaling $518,000.

Engler’s legal team criticized the principal for what they called “reckless and defamatory behavior,” stating that Mooney’s email falsely portrayed Engler as racially biased and irreparably damaged his professional reputation. The suit also noted that Mooney had failed to follow the district’s own hate-bias protocols in this and prior incidents—including a separate 2022 antisemitism complaint.

Though the email did not directly identify Engler, it led to public outrage and cost him his coaching job. Engler testified that he was “humiliated,” and that the fallout undermined his rapport with students and the broader community.

The school district argued that it followed internal procedures before sending the email, which was reviewed by at least nine officials. Their attorneys maintained that the email reflected the “general nature of the event” and should not be considered defamatory because it was “substantially true.”

Student testimonies during the trial varied. One student affirmed that Engler never made a racist remark, while another insisted he referenced race during the interaction.

‘They Begged for That Beat Down!’ Top Cincinnati Official Allegedly ‘Grateful’ after Black Mob Pummels Whites

/0 Comments/in , /by

Urgent calls for the firing and arrest of a top Cincinnati councilwoman emerged Wednesday after she allegedly said she was “grateful” for the vicious pummeling of white citizens and that “they begged” to be attacked.

“They begged for that beat down! I am grateful for the whole story,” is attributed to Victoria Parks, president pro tem of Cincinnati City Council, in a comment thread discussing Saturday’s violence in which a mob is shown horrifically hammering numerous white people.

“Cincinnati Councilwoman Victoria Parks needs to step down. So does the Cincinnati Police Chief. They are both defending criminal behavior,” urged one person on X.

“These people are absolute lunatics,” said journalist Eric Daugherty, as he notified the U.S. Justice Department about the remarks.

Other comments online include:

“This should be an immediate termination condoning and supporting this kind of attack.”

“So you sanction a beating because he did what … ? Breathe? Or you just know he deserved it? And I’m sure the woman is equally guilty.” (Read more from “‘They Begged for That Beat Down!’ Top Cincinnati Official Allegedly ‘Grateful’ after Black Mob Pummels Whites” HERE)

The Statue Of The Random Black Woman In Times Square Is Leftist Cultural Warfare

/0 Comments/in , /by

The cultural parasites of the left have struck again. This time, they have erected a bronze statue of a 12-foot-tall anonymous overweight black woman in New York City’s Times Square, where it will stand for the next month.

Matt Walsh asked on X whether it was a particular person “or just a statue of a random black woman for no apparent reason?”

It is indeed a random black woman, and the randomness is for a very specific reason. Having torn down beautiful statues of American heroes and icons, the left is now erecting intentionally ugly statues designed to attack the very idea of greatness and undermine the notion that exceptional people should be memorialized and honored in public. And they’re doing it for the ultimate purpose of seizing and wielding cultural and political power.

But don’t just take my word for it. The statue, we’re told, “disrupts preconceived ideas of what defines a triumphant figure and challenges who should be rendered immortal through monumentalization.”

These people do not come to build but to destroy, and what they erect in the place of what they have destroyed isn’t just boring and narcissistic, it’s also cultural propaganda that insists on a neo-Marxist paradigm pitting the supposedly marginalized and oppressed against the oppressors. And we all know who the oppressors are. (Read more from “The Statue Of The Random Black Woman In Times Square Is Leftist Cultural Warfare” HERE)

Researchers Axed Data Point Undermining ‘Narrative’ That White Doctors Are Biased Against Black Babies

/0 Comments/in , /by

A researcher who argued that infant mortality is higher for black newborns with white doctors because of racial bias omitted a variable from the paper that “undermines the narrative,” according to the researcher’s internal notes.

The study forms a keystone of the racial concordance field, which hypothesizes patients are better served by medical providers of the same race, and has served as a rationale for affirmative action. It faces new questions just as universities move to defund their Diversity, Equity and Inclusion programs or face legal action.

The August 2020 study in the prestigious Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) concluded that the gap in mortality rates between black newborns and white newborns declines by 58% if the black newborns are under the care of black physicians. A possible driver of the phenomenon could include a “spontaneous bias” by white physicians toward the babies, the researchers wrote.

The paper’s most high-profile booster was Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, who cited it as evidence for the benefits of affirmative action in her dissent in the 2023 Supreme Court ruling Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard, which found that universities that considered the race of college applicants had violated the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.

“For high-risk Black newborns, having a Black physician is tantamount to a miracle drug: it more than doubles the likelihood that the baby will live,” reads an amicus brief filed by the Association of American Medical Colleges. “Yet due to the enduring and significant underrepresentation of minorities in the health professions, many minority patients will not receive care from a racially diverse team or from providers who were trained in a diverse environment.”

Kamala Harris Appears to Propose New Race-Based Payments

/0 Comments/in , /by

Vice President Kamala Harris unveiled a new proposal Monday all but promising to distribute forgivable small business loans on the basis of race as she struggles to gain the support of black men.

The Harris campaign rolled out its “Opportunity Agenda for Black Men,” which proposes to give one million $20,000 loans to black entrepreneurs and “others who have historically faced barriers to starting a new business or growing an existing business.” The policy is aligned with the Biden administration’s broad effort to prioritize or otherwise incorporate race into several major government programs and initiatives, such as its payments to black American farmers who faced discrimination before 2021 and its Justice40 agenda stipulating that 40% of the benefits of certain environmental spending and programs flow to “disadvantaged communities.”

“Drawing on insights from her experience throughout her career and her Economic Opportunity Tour, today Vice President Harris is laying out an Opportunity Agenda for Black Men to provide them with the tools to achieve financial freedom, lower costs to better provide for themselves and their families, and protect their rights,” the Harris campaign wrote in its new plan. “This pathbreaking agenda includes: Providing 1 million loans that are fully forgivable to Black entrepreneurs and others to start a business.”

Specifically, the Small Business Administration would team up with “trusted partners on the ground” to distribute the business loans to recipients under Harris’ new proposal. The forgivable loans are designed to boost “entrepreneurs who have a good idea but don’t have the resources, connections, or access to capital to get their business off the ground, as well as entrepreneurs locating in underserved communities.”

The forgivable small business loans are just one part of the new “Opportunity Agenda for Black Men.” Other proposals include enhancing job training programs for black men, launching health initiatives focused on conditions like cell disease that disproportionately affect black men and legalizing recreational marijuana and helping black Americans capitalize on that industry.

Democratic Lawmaker Accused of Pretending to Be Black, Dropping N-Bombs on Twitter Account

/2 Comments/in , /by

A Democratic lawmaker in Pennsylvania has been accused of using problematic language online about minorities around a decade ago, according to several reports.

State Democratic Sen. Jimmy Dillon of Philadelphia, 45, is accused of writing unflattering tweets referencing Black, gay and Asian persons via the handle @Hoops24_7 between 2011 and 2015, The Delaware Valley (DV) Journal reported Tuesday. Dillon operates a children’s basketball academy named Hoops 24-7 Basketball Academy, hence why some are accusing him of being behind the handle @Hoops24_7.

He denied making the comments Tuesday, saying in part, “I’m not a big social media guy. If a basketball player who works with Hoops 24-7 posted something like this more than a decade ago, it’s the first I’ve heard about it, and it doesn’t reflect my values,” according to ABC27 News.

“@A2daO: This [n-word] really a 7ft two guard,” one of the tweets, posted in January 2013 via the said handle, read. “He playing like he is on tour with And1.. Unguardable.”

“@JonDaBB got 2 parties.. Need that [n-word] on board for the facility .. Big Hoops 365 staff meeting on a Friday night…,” ran another tweet dated Nov. 24, 2012. (Read more from “Democratic Lawmaker Accused of Pretending to Be Black, Dropping N-Bombs on Twitter Account” HERE)

New Docs Shed Light on Air Force’s ‘Goal’ to Reduce ‘White Male Population’ Joining Officer Ranks

/1 Comment/in , /by

The Air Force finally handed over a trove of documents pertaining to its sweeping “goal” of reducing the number of white male applicants in a popular officer program after spending months stonewalling requests for their release.

Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman C.Q. Brown — at the time the highest-ranking member of the Air Force — issued a memorandum in 2022 that the branch was updating its racial and gender demographic goals for applicants seeking to become officers, in a bid to prioritize “diversity and inclusion.” Internal documents obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation include a slideshow from 2022 where the Air Force outlines racial and gender quotas and details how it hopes to “achieve” a reduced number of white males in its Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) officer’s applicant program.

The documents reflect the Biden-Harris Pentagon’s intense focus on implementing diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies in the armed forces, even as the military continues to combat dwindling morale among its rank-and-file, recruiting and retention shortfalls and low pay.

“The American people are rightly concerned that, at a time when our country is facing dangerous and increasing threats throughout the world, the Air Force is focused on recruitment efforts based on arbitrary racial diversity goals — not merit or increasing the force’s lethality,” James Fitzpatrick, director of the Center To Advance Security In America (CASA), told the DCNF.

CASA requested records regarding the Air Force’s new officer applicant standards through a federal transparency request, called a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request in 2023. At the time, the Air Force said it couldn’t find any records, according to a letter obtained by the DCNF.

Medical Internship Program Under Fire for Rejecting Anyone Who Doesn’t ‘Identify’ as Black

/5 Comments/in , /by

A medical internship program is under fire for allegedly racially discriminating against otherwise qualified applicants, requiring that applicants must “identify” as black or African American.

Do No Harm filed a complaint on behalf of a member on Thursday requesting the federal government investigate an internship offered by the Alliance for Regenerative Medicine (ARM). The anonymous member was qualified academically and met all other requirements but was rejected because of his race.

The complaint was filed to the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) against ARM for their internship program, GROW. The program offers paid opportunities in regenerative medicine for black undergraduate and graduate students, the website states.

“Once you sacrifice the opportunity to take a more qualified person for a less qualified person simply because of the way they look, you’ve sacrificed the opportunity to really do the best research,” Dr. Stanley Goldfarb, Do No Harm board chair, told the Daily Caller News Foundation.

“We just want them to do the right thing,” Goldfarb said. “We want them to obey the law, and we want them to deal with people based on their individual merit and not based on their racial and immutable characteristics.”

Former Dem Governor Says Black Voters Will ‘Rise Up’ Against Democrats Following Trump Verdict (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former Democratic Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich stated Thursday on Fox News that black voters, one of the Democratic Party’s key voting blocs, will “rise up” and instead support former President Donald Trump following his guilty verdict.

Blagojevich appeared on “Jesse Watters Primetime” to discuss the verdict. A New York jury found Trump guilty on all 34 felony counts for alleged falsified business records. A judge previously sentenced Blagojevich to 14 years for trying to sell then-president-elect Barack Obama’s Illinois Senate seat, and Trump commuted it in 2020. Watters asked the former governor about his thoughts on the former president’s case.

“I see this as déjà vu all over again. I didn’t break a single law, cross a line or take a penny. They failed to convict me at a first trial, tried me a second time, used unlawful jury instructions to criminalize things that were legal. They learned from that, and now they’re doing it at the major-league level — what they did to a Democrat governor at the triple A level — and doing it to the leading candidate of the opposition party, being done by the party in power. My party, the Democratic Party. It’s a very sad day for America on many levels,” Blagojevich stated.

“On a personal level, I’m grateful to President Trump for commuting my sentence. My heart sinks when I think about what he has to go through, what his family has to go through. My heart is broken for our country because this is serious business and these Democrats, my fellow Democrats who run the show now, are coordinating these prosecutions against Trump from the Democratic National Committee in Washington D.C. with assistance from the White House and Biden.”

“It’s so obvious to me because I’ve lived it myself. In my case, these were Bush-appointed Republicans who did it to me. Now the Democrats are doing it to Trump, but what they’re doing is they’re destroying the rule of law, our constitution, which will eventually lead to the loss of our freedom. Nothing is sacred with these people, nothing is sacred. It’s politics at all costs and forget about the law, and forget about injustice and forget about destroying somebody through prosecution, persecution and the politics of personal destruction.” (Read more from “Former Dem Governor Says Black Voters Will ‘Rise Up’ Against Democrats Following Trump Verdict (VIDEO)” HERE)
