Racism

Proving that it's a cognitive choice when they act like a bunch of liberal buffoons 99 percent of the time, the Wednesday night handoff between CNN Prime Time host Chris Cuomo and CNN Tonight host Don Lemon was a breath of fresh air as they defended the Columbus, Ohio officer who shot a black teen who was inches away from stabbing another person.

Near the end of Wednesday’s White House press briefing, the New York Post’s Steven Nelson irked Press Secretary Jen Psaki with a basic question about whether President Biden “acknowledge[s] his own role” in major crime legislation that leftists argue contributed to the “systemic racism” his administration has claimed they will work to eradicate.

Almost to a team, this week’s conviction of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin is seen as a mandate to double down on social justice activism. USA Today said the verdict was centuries in the making. Sports Illustrated saw the world breathing a sigh of relief.

The long awaited verdict of ex-cop Derek Chauvin was announced April 20, causing the world to erupt in cries of relief and elation. He was found guilty of all charges in the death of George Floyd. Hollywood celebrities shared in the excitement, tweeting their approval of the court ruling and condemnation of the man and the system itself.

The not-so-neighborly social media app Nextdoor revealed a new program that warns users to avoid posting language that it deemed “could be offensive.” Phrases such as “All Lives Matter” will trip Nextdoor’s racism censor, apparently. The social media app for people to communicate within their own neighborhoods about local concerns has taken a decisively far-left turn.

Amidst all the MSM celebration of the conviction of Derek Chauvin, CNN's John Berman sounded a surprising sidenote this morning. He actually teed up a guest to criticize Nancy Pelosi for her absurd statement of yesterday, in which she said: "Thank you, George Floyd, for sacrificing your life for justice." Berman prefaced things by saying: "I want to play what Speaker Nancy Pelosi said about…

God forbid Hollywood C-lister Alyssa Milano needs the help of police anytime soon. She says all cops – maybe all of America (it’s hard to tell) – are “rotten.” She certainly wouldn’t want her pristine virtue soiled by their services.

A Bloomberg Opinion senior columnist joined the noisy cacophony of liberal elitists demanding Fox Corporation executive Lachlan Murdoch cancel conservative host Tucker Carlson.

The United Kingdom commissioned a report on race. It offered an optimistic view, saying institutional racism for minorities no longer blocked minority achievement in the UK. But left-wing pressure groups and their journalistic allies were appalled to read that the country they lived in was not hopelessly bigoted. Now the United Nations’ own batch of “experts” have condemned the findings, and…

Congresswoman Maxine Waters (D-CA) found herself on Tuesday in need of doubling down on her belief that legal intimidation and tampering was the way of achieving her preferred outcomes, so MSNBC’s ReidOut host Joy Reid was happy to both give her that forum and decry those who disagree with Waters’s recent comments in Minnesota and her views on criminal justice reform as racists.

Woke television has apparently gone so far that not even black showrunners are safe from being cancelled. The latest shift comes courtesy of the L.A. Times condemning a supposedly growing rise of “black trauma porn.”

In a bizarre Tuesday press conference following the guilty verdict of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin in the murder of George Floyd, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) thanked Floyd for “sacrificing” his life (as though it was his choice) and crying out for mother. It was a disgusting display that went completely unmentioned by the evening newscasts of ABC, CBS, and NBC, though…

In the wake of the jury in the Derek Chauvin murder trial finding him guilty of all three charges Tuesday, ABC’s World News Tonight wasted zero time kicking things into a disgustingly political gear by suggesting that Republicans were against the Floyd family and police reform just because a bill with George Floyd’s name on it had stalled.

The former eight-term president of the Hollywood Foreign Press Agency, the organization that puts on the Golden Globes awards show every year, is in hot water for criticizing the Black Lives Matter movement.
