Rat Rod Rosenstein Admits Under Oath He Would Not Have Signed Carter Page FISA Warrant With Knowledge He Has Now

Former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein said he never would have signed off on the fourth and final Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant targeting Trump campaign associate Carter Page if he knew then what he knows now .
Rosenstein , who also appointed special counsel Robert Mueller while overseeing the Russia investigation after then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions recused himself , testified in a public session with the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday that he was unaware of the serious flaws with the Page FISA process that were uncovered by Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz .
Rosenstein replied in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pressed him on whether he read Horowitz ’ s lengthy December 2019 report on the Russia investigation .
“ If you knew then what you know now , would you have signed the warrant application ?
” Graham asked .
Graham , a South Carolina Republican , asked whether “ the reason you wouldn ’ t have is because Mr. Horowitz found that exculpatory information was withheld from the court , is that correct ?
” Horowitz ’ s report criticized the Justice Department and the FBI for at least 17 “ significant @ @ @ @ @ @ @ FISA warrants against Page in 2016 and 2017 and for the bureau 's reliance on British ex-spy Christopher Steele ’ s flawed dossier .
Steele put his research together at the behest of the opposition research firm Fusion GPS , funded by Hillary Clinton 's presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee through the Perkins Coie law firm .
Recently declassified footnotes show the FBI was aware that Steele ’ s subsources disputed the accuracy of his claims and knew that the dossier may have been compromised by Russian disinformation yet used it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Justice Department determined that the final two FISA warrants , including the one signed by Rosenstein , were “ invalid.

Rosenstein resigned from the Justice Department last spring .
During his initial line of questioning on Tuesday , Graham also referenced former FBI lawyer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have altered a key document in the Page FISA process and was reportedly under criminal investigation by U.S. Attorney John Durham .
Asked if that played a role in why he wouldn ’ t sign off on the Page FISA now , Rosenstein said that was `` correct . ''
“ So there were 17 violations that Mr. Horowitz found , but I can ’ t stress enough to the country that he found the most egregious of all — the dossier was the only reason the Carter Page warrant was issued to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the man who provided Steele with all the information told the FBI it was a bunch of garbage , and they used it twice more , ” Graham said .
“ What kind of country is this ?

” Graham then pressed Rosenstein on whether former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe , who took over in an acting role following Director James Comey ’ s firing , would have known @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Rosenstein said he hoped that wasn ’ t the case but stressed he did not know .
“ Did he ever lie to you ?
” Graham asked of McCabe .

The former deputy director claimed he did not rely only on McCabe ’ s word when he signed off on the Page FISA .
“ I had an understanding of what Mr. McCabe told me , but the document stands for itself @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s a hundred pages , and I relied on what I understood to be in the application .
”

Former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein said he never would have signed off on the fourth and final Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant targeting Trump campaign associate Carter Page if he knew then what he knows now.
Rosenstein, who also appointed special counsel Robert Mueller while overseeing the Russia investigation after then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions recused himself, testified in a public session with the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday that he was unaware of the serious flaws with the Page FISA process that were uncovered by Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz.
Rosenstein replied in the affirmative when Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham pressed him on whether he read Horowitz’s lengthy December 2019 report on the Russia investigation.
“If you knew then what you know now, would you have signed the warrant application?” Graham asked.
Rosenstein replied: “No, I would not.”
Graham, a South Carolina Republican, asked whether “the reason you wouldn’t have is because Mr. Horowitz found that exculpatory information was withheld from the court, is that correct?”
Rosenstein answered: “Among other reasons, yes sir.”
Horowitz’s report criticized the Justice Department and the FBI for at least 17 “significant errors and omissions” related to the FISA warrants against Page in 2016 and 2017 and for the bureau's reliance on British ex-spy Christopher Steele’s flawed dossier. Steele put his research together at the behest of the opposition research firm Fusion GPS, funded by Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee through the Perkins Coie law firm.
Recently declassified footnotes show the FBI was aware that Steele’s subsources disputed the accuracy of his claims and knew that the dossier may have been compromised by Russian disinformation yet used it anyway.
Earlier this year, the Justice Department determined that the final two FISA warrants, including the one signed by Rosenstein, were “invalid.” The FBI told the FISA court it was working to “sequester” all the information obtained through the Page wiretaps, and FBI Director Christopher Wray testified to Congress that he was working to “claw back” information gleaned through the electronic surveillance of Page.
Rosenstein resigned from the Justice Department last spring.
During his initial line of questioning on Tuesday, Graham also referenced former FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith, whom Horowitz found to have altered a key document in the Page FISA process and was reportedly under criminal investigation by U.S. Attorney John Durham. Asked if that played a role in why he wouldn’t sign off on the Page FISA now, Rosenstein said that was "correct."
“So there were 17 violations that Mr. Horowitz found, but I can’t stress enough to the country that he found the most egregious of all — the dossier was the only reason the Carter Page warrant was issued to begin with, and in January 2017 the man who provided Steele with all the information told the FBI it was a bunch of garbage, and they used it twice more,” Graham said. “What kind of country is this? What happens to people who do that? Did you know that? You didn’t know that, did you?”
Rosenstein replied, “No sir.”
Graham then pressed Rosenstein on whether former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, who took over in an acting role following Director James Comey’s firing, would have known about all the Steele dossier flaws. Rosenstein said he hoped that wasn’t the case but stressed he did not know.
“Did he ever lie to you?” Graham asked of McCabe.
“I don’t believe, senator, that there were any occasions in which I identified that he lied to me,” Rosenstein said.
“Do you believe he was truthful to you?” Graham asked.
“I believe, senator, that Mr. McCabe was not fully candid with me, he certainly wasn’t forthcoming. In particular, senator, with regard to Mr. Comey’s memoranda of his interviews with the president and with regard to the FBI’s suspicions about the president, Mr. McCabe did not reveal those to me for at least a week after he became acting director,” Rosenstein said.
The former deputy director claimed he did not rely only on McCabe’s word when he signed off on the Page FISA.
“I had an understanding of what Mr. McCabe told me, but the document stands for itself,” McCabe said. “It’s a hundred pages, and I relied on what I understood to be in the application.”

Sen. Ted Cruz ( R-Texas ) laid into former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein during Wednesday ’ s Senate Judiciary Committee Hearing on the FBI ’ s investigation into Russian election interference .
In a heated exchange between the two , Cruz said Rosenstein presided over a “ profoundly politicized ” Department of Justice , accusing him of being either “ complicit ” in wrongdoing or “ grossly negligent ” in the execution of his duties .
Cruz began his questioning with the rather hyperbolic claim that Obama administration ’ s alleged “ abuse of power ” in overseeing the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ even contemplated pale in comparison , ” saying Nixon “ rightfully faced impeachment ” before his resignation over the Watergate scandal .
Cruz claimed that the publicly available evidence indicated that the Obama administration “ targeted ” President Donald Trump and weaponized the Department of Justice and the intelligence community .
Cruz failed to mention that the FBI had also been conducting an aggressive investigation into Trump ’ s then-opponent in the election Hillary Clinton over her use of a private email server during her time as Secretary of State .
The Texas @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that have grown from the “ Obamagate ” conspiracy and the idea that “ Joe Biden himself personally unmask [ ed ] Michael Flynn ’ s name.
” But Flynn ’ s name was never redacted from the FBI ’ s report on his conversations with then-Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak .
Critics say the general capturing of citizens ’ communications while U.S. authorities listen in on foreign conversations is the root of the problem .
Cruz then moved on to discussing Rosenstein ’ s role in the Russia investigation .
“ Mr .

” Cruz then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ investigation into Flynn .

thelibertydaily--2020-06-04--FLASHBACK: Rat Rod Rosenstein Laughs When Asked If He Volunteered To Wear A Wire With President Trum

FLASHBACK: Rat Rod Rosenstein Laughs When Asked If He Volunteered To Wear A Wire With President Trump

Former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein laughed when he was asked if he volunteered to wear a wire to record conversations with President Trump , PJ Media reported in May , 2019 .
Remember , it was former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe who publicly stated that Rosenstein made the offer .
“ We talked about why the president had insisted on firing the director and whether or not he was thinking about the Russia investigation and did that impact his decision and in the context of that conversation , the deputy attorney general offered to wear a wire into @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ‘ I never get searched when I go into the White House .
I could easily wear a recording device .
They wouldn ’ t know it was there.
’ Now , he was not joking , ” McCabe said during a 60 Minutes interview .
“ He was absolutely serious .
And in fact , he brought it up in the next meeting we had .
I never actually considered taking him up on the offer .
I did discuss it with my general counsel and my leadership team back at the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ first time , ” McCabe added .
Rosenstein testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday .
Sara A. Carter followed the hearing in this live blog .

UPDATE:
In a significant turn of events, Attorney General Merrick Garland made a surprising announcement on Friday, elevating Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss to the role of special counsel. This decision marks a shift in focus towards the investigation of the Biden family’s financial matters. The probe, which encompasses Hunter Biden’s tax affairs and any potential connections his father, President Joe Biden, might have with his foreign associates, is slated to extend into the 2024 election cycle. Interestingly, this move comes as former President Donald Trump is simultaneously facing two federal indictments from the same department.
Garland stressed that the decision to appoint Weiss as an independent prosecutor aligns with the “public interest” and adheres to departmental regulations. Importantly, this transition was initiated by Weiss himself, who, earlier this week, conveyed his belief that the investigation had reached a point where he should proceed as a special counsel.
Weiss is no stranger to this intricate landscape. He is the federal prosecutor responsible for bringing charges against President Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, in Delaware. Recent times have witnessed the unfolding of legal proceedings involving Hunter Biden, including a probation-oriented plea arrangement that was ultimately rejected by a judge. In June, Hunter Biden agreed to a deal with federal prosecutors, admitting guilt in two tax-related offenses and a firearm charge, potentially leading to the dismissal of the latter charge. This latest development underscores the intensification of scrutiny into the financial affairs of the Biden family and highlights the evolving legal landscape involving prominent political figures.
—
Attorney General Merrick Garland will speak to the public Friday afternoon. It is highly anticipated because I believe, as do many others, that he may be getting ready to announce the appointment of a Special Counsel to investigate “Hunter Biden” and his financial dealings overseas. Although, welcome there are still too many concerns with the DOJ that need to be addressed and there is little faith among many Americans that anything will be done.
Americans have witnessed the makings and the result of a two tiered justice system since President Trump was elected and then the continuing targeting of Trump even after his term as president.
I’ve spoken about the need for an outside investigation into Hunter Biden and President Biden at length on my podcast, The Sara Carter Show and on Fox News. But I’ve been jaded by the failures of past investigations and the weaponization of the Justice Department to do its job. The failure of the DOJ to be blind and just has been devastating to our nation.
Will Garland appoint a special counsel? I don’t know but as Americans we must demand that our leadership, our bureaucracies and our law makers follow the rule of law without prejudice. If they do not, as we have seen over the past decade with the establishments attacks on President Donald Trump and the weaponization of the system to target him, then our foundation will not only be fractured but it will be irreparable.
Either way, the alleged crimes and obvious financial connections linked to the Biden family with adversarial nations like China and Russia must be thoroughly investigated and the investigation must be made public. The Biden connections and large sums of money taken from government connected energy companies in Ukraine must also be thoroughly vetted and any improprieties must be made public.

thelibertydaily--2020-06-04--White Coat Supremacy — When Larry Kramer Met Fascist Fauci

The backstory of white coat supremacy , the coronavirus lockdown , and destruction of the American economy .
Larry Kramer , writer of the Oscar-nominated screenplay for Women in Love , and author of the 1978 novel Faggots , passed away last week at the age of 84 .
His name might draw a blank , but Kramer ’ s significance during the current pandemic is greater than people might think .
“ Larry Kramer was one of the first activists against AIDS , back when the disease didn ’ t even have a name , ” recalled NPR .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ witnessed hundreds , then thousands of gay men die before the government took action to stop the spread of HIV .
He became a high-profile , high-volume , one-man crusade against the disease.
” In 1981 , Kramer read a newspaper story about “ gay cancer , ” then starting to claim lives .
In 1982 , Kramer teamed to found the Gay Men ’ s Health Crisis , and in 1983 wrote the essay “ 1,112 and Counting , ” in the New York Native .
“ For the first time in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ leading doctors and researchers are finally admitting they do n't know what 's going on.
” The possible causes included “ promiscuity , poppers , back rooms , the baths , rimming , fisting , ” and so forth , along with “ a new virus.
” A similar picture emerged in the 1983 How to Have Sex in an Epidemic , by Richard Berkowitz and Michael Callen , endorsed by Dr. Joseph Sonnabend , one of the first to identify AIDS .
Sonnabend thought the cytomegalovirus ( CMV ) could be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , no “ new ” virus had been shown to play a “ causative role in the disease.
” To avoid AIDS , the pamphlet warned about unprotected anal sex , along with “ swallowing piss ” and the practice of “ rimming , ” also known as analingus , activity that could not be made “ risk free.
” How to Have Sex in an Epidemic also cited the amyl and butyl nitrite “ poppers , ” heavily used in the bathhouses .
In conclusion : “ the party that was the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ the AIDS crisis may prove to have been a crystal clear reflection of just how little we knew about protecting our health.
” Kramer became convinced that the real problem was government inaction , and in 1987 founded ACT UP , the “ AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power , ” which staged demonstrations at the Food and Drug Administration while accusing officials of “ murder ” and “ genocide.
” In a 1988 open letter in the San Francisco Examiner , Kramer called out Dr. Anthony Fauci , director of the National @ @ @ @ @ @ @ NIAID ) .
“ Your refusal to hear the screams of AIDS activists early in the crisis resulted in the deaths of thousands of Queers , ” Kramer wrote .
“ Your present inaction is causing today ’ s increase in HIV infection outside of the Queer community.
” That caught the attention of Fauci , who reached out to Kramer and began hailing HIV as the official cause of AIDS .
Scientists who questioned the HIV cause included Kary Mullis , winner of the Nobel Prize in chemistry for the polymerase chain @ @ @ @ @ @ @ foreword to Peter Duesberg ’ s Inventing the AIDS Virus , Mullis wrote , “ We have not been able to find a good reason why most of the people believe that AIDS is caused by a virus called HIV .
There is simply no scientific evidence demonstrating that is true.
” Fauci , a medical doctor , not a molecular biologist , never refuted Duesberg ’ s work .
Instead Fauci claimed it amounted to “ murder ” and predicted a vast breakout of AIDS among heterosexuals .
As Michael Fumento showed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , that never happened .
AIDS was supposedly an “ epidemic , ” but from 1981 through 1990 , a ballpark figure for the number of quarantines is 10 , and no economic shut-down took place .
Dr. Fauci got it wrong but in bureaucratic style suffered no penalty for his mistakes .
When the coronavirus arrived from Wuhan , Fauci said China was being transparent and parroted the propaganda of WHO boss Tedros .
Fauci was on every side of every question about the pandemic .
He shunned hard data and touted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to recommend that the entire country be shut down .
The NIAID boss wanted to keep it that way , based on prophecies of a new outbreak .
An entirely fallible federal bureaucrat , who in 36 years never once had to face the voters , justified vast economic destruction and suffering for American workers .
If the workers saw that as white coat supremacy in action , it would be hard to blame them .
It all traces back to Anthony Fauci , who made a name for himself by caving to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was “ a very , very sad day , the passing of a true icon , ” Fauci told the Associated Press .
“ I had a very long and complicated and ultimately wonderful relationship with him over more than three decades .
We went from adversaries to acquaintances to friends to really , really dear friends.
” This was a man-crush with enduring consequences .
Larry Kramer believed that , facts aside , if you yell loud enough , government will give you what you want , and there ’ s no @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s very hard to deal with Mr. Kramer , ” complained Ed Koch , mayor of New York City from 1978-89 .
“ No matter what you do , you ’ re going to be attacked and pilloried and smeared and slammed , no matter what you do !
” On any issue , that is now standard operating procedure for the left .
Larry Kramer is forgotten , but not gone .

A similar picture emerged in the 1983 How to Have Sex in an Epidemic, by Richard Berkowitz and Michael Callen, endorsed by Dr. Joseph Sonnabend, one of the first to identify AIDS.
Sonnabend thought the cytomegalovirus (CMV) could be a factor but as the pamphlet explains, no “new” virus had been shown to play a “causative role in the disease.” To avoid AIDS, the pamphlet warned about unprotected anal sex, along with “swallowing piss” and the practice of “rimming,” also known as analingus, activity that could not be made “risk free.”
How to Have Sex in an Epidemic also cited the amyl and butyl nitrite “poppers,” heavily used in the bathhouses. In conclusion: “the party that was the ‘70s is over,” and “the AIDS crisis may prove to have been a crystal clear reflection of just how little we knew about protecting our health.”
Kramer became convinced that the real problem was government inaction, and in 1987 founded ACT UP, the “AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power,” which staged demonstrations at the Food and Drug Administration while accusing officials of “murder” and “genocide.” In a 1988 open letter in the San Francisco Examiner, Kramer called out Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID).
“Your refusal to hear the screams of AIDS activists early in the crisis resulted in the deaths of thousands of Queers,” Kramer wrote. “Your present inaction is causing today’s increase in HIV infection outside of the Queer community.” That caught the attention of Fauci, who reached out to Kramer and began hailing HIV as the official cause of AIDS.
Scientists who questioned the HIV cause included Kary Mullis, winner of the Nobel Prize in chemistry for the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). In his foreword to Peter Duesberg’s Inventing the AIDS Virus, Mullis wrote, “We have not been able to find a good reason why most of the people believe that AIDS is caused by a virus called HIV. There is simply no scientific evidence demonstrating that is true.”
Fauci, a medical doctor, not a molecular biologist, never refuted Duesberg’s work. Instead Fauci claimed it amounted to “murder” and predicted a vast breakout of AIDS among heterosexuals. As Michael Fumento showed in see The Myth of Heterosexual AIDS, that never happened. AIDS was supposedly an “epidemic,” but from 1981 through 1990, a ballpark figure for the number of quarantines is 10, and no economic shut-down took place.
Dr. Fauci got it wrong but in bureaucratic style suffered no penalty for his mistakes. When the coronavirus arrived from Wuhan, Fauci said China was being transparent and parroted the propaganda of WHO boss Tedros. Fauci was on every side of every question about the pandemic. He shunned hard data and touted meaningless figures from “models,” to recommend that the entire country be shut down. The NIAID boss wanted to keep it that way, based on prophecies of a new outbreak.
An entirely fallible federal bureaucrat, who in 36 years never once had to face the voters, justified vast economic destruction and suffering for American workers. If the workers saw that as white coat supremacy in action, it would be hard to blame them. It all traces back to Anthony Fauci, who made a name for himself by caving to militants like Larry Kramer.
His passing was “a very, very sad day, the passing of a true icon,” Fauci told the Associated Press. “I had a very long and complicated and ultimately wonderful relationship with him over more than three decades. We went from adversaries to acquaintances to friends to really, really dear friends.” This was a man-crush with enduring consequences.
Larry Kramer believed that, facts aside, if you yell loud enough, government will give you what you want, and there’s no two ways about it.
“It’s very hard to deal with Mr. Kramer,” complained Ed Koch, mayor of New York City from 1978-89. “No matter what you do, you’re going to be attacked and pilloried and smeared and slammed, no matter what you do!” On any issue, that is now standard operating procedure for the left. Larry Kramer is forgotten, but not gone.

thelibertydaily--2020-06-04--Debunking the Left’s Pernicious Lies: The Truth about Interracial Violent Crime

John Perazzo is the author of Betrayal : The Democratic Party 's Destruction of America 's Cities .
Prior to the May 25th death of George Floyd in Minneapolis , a major focus of the media during the preceding two weeks had been a video showing an incident where a young black man named Ahmaud Arbery was fatally shot by two white men in Glynn County , Georgia .
The killers say that they pursued Arbery , whom they suspected of having been involved in some recent local burglaries , when they spotted him running through their neighborhood – though @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out for a jog .
Eventually a fight broke out , and Arbery was shot and killed .
After a video of the deadly altercation went public in early May , there were massive protests in Arbery 's behalf .
On May 8 – which would have been Arbery 's 26th birthday – activist Al Sharpton used the Internet to lead a “ virtual rally ” in the young man 's memory , drawing some 105,000 participants .
In an interview four days later , Sharpton , exhorting members of the black community @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” vis-a-vis the Arbery case for as long as possible , portrayed the Georgia killing as an extension of racist American violence dating back to the epoch of slavery : “ It was expected that if you saw a black , that you would suspect that he was a runaway slave , and you had the runaway slave laws that … they would use that to hunt down blacks for vigilante groups , the KKK and others , all the way up until the modern era.
” Television personality Oprah Winfrey likewise characterized @ @ @ @ @ @ @ intransigent white racism : “ He went out for a jog while being Black .
I wonder what was he thinking in those last seconds of his life ?
Unimaginable to go for a run in 2020 and end up dead because of the color of your skin.
” Notably , there is no record of either Sharpton or Winfrey uttering even a single public word in memory of 34-year-old Zackary Randalls , 37-year-old Mark Gassett , or 58-year-old David Jackson .
You 've never heard of these individuals , of course , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who were murdered three years ago in Fresno , California by Kori Ali Muhammad , a black racist who candidly sought “ to kill as many white males as possible ” – killings for which the perpetrator was convicted just six weeks ago .
Regarding the Zackary Randalls murder , Mr. Muhammad has since explained : “ When I walked up to the truck , I saw a Mexican driver and a white guy .
I didn ’ t want to target the driver because he was Mexican , so I shot the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ some mysterious reason , did n't find the story compelling enough to cover .
Neither is there any record of Sharpton or Winfrey lamenting the deaths of 86-year-old Paul Marino and his 85-year-old wife , Lidia , both of whom were murdered in cold blood by a black gunman on May 8 – the very day of Sharpton 's “ virtual rally ” in honor of Ahmaud Arbery – while they visited the gravesite of their late son , Anthony , in a Delaware cemetery .
To borrow Oprah 's pithy maxim , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Marino were just “ visiting their son 's grave while being white.
” Other victims whose recent murders were ignored by media outlets and camera hogs like Sharpton and Winfrey include : • Joyce Whaley , Patricia Nibbe , and Nettie Spencer – three middle-aged white women who were brutally stabbed to death by a black killer at a Tennessee truck stop in early April ; • Heather Perry , a 21-year-old white woman who was shot to death in a Denver alleyway on May 9 by Cornelius Haney , a convicted armed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ prison in order to protect him from contracting the coronavirus ; • Logan Allen Stacks , a 17-year-old white boy who was gunned down by two black teens on March 27 in Lancaster County , South Carolina ; • Dr. Beth Potter , a 52-year-old white physician who dedicated her career to helping “ underserved communities , ” and her husband , educational consultant Robin Carre , who were shot execution-style by a pair of black teens on March 30 in Madison , Wisconsin ; and • Kristopher Dacus , a 33-year-old white @ @ @ @ @ @ @ multiple times and killed by four black teens in the North Little Rock , Arkansas cemetery where he worked .
Let us assume for a moment that Ahmaud Arbery – who quite obviously was a volatile and menacing character with a criminal history – was in fact the innocent victim of a horrific , wholly unjustifiable murder .
Even if that were the case , why should his death garner more attention from American media outlets and civil rights activists , than , say , the deaths of the 13 aforementioned whites whose @ @ @ @ @ @ @ killers in 6 different states ?
Perhaps a case could be made in favor of such a double standard if white-on-black killings were commonplace in American society – on the theory that the condemnation of such occurrences might help raise people 's collective consciousness about the deadly ramifications of white racism .
But in fact , white-on-black homicides in the U.S. have been exceedingly rare for many decades .
Conventional “ wisdom ” maintains that violent crime tends largely to be an intra-racial affair , where whites target mostly whites , and blacks @ @ @ @ @ @ @ true for homicide , but much less true for other crimes of violence such as assault , rape , and robbery .
Let us look first at homicides that involved whites and blacks during 2012 and 2013 .
During those years , white killers nationwide chose to target white victims approximately 93 percent of the time , and black victims 7 percent of the time .
Meanwhile , black killers targeted black victims 84.7 percent of the time , and white victims 15.3 percent of the time .
But violence in America crosses @ @ @ @ @ @ @ crimes in question are rape , robbery , and assault .
In 2012 and 2013 , for instance , blacks in the U.S. committed an annual average of 560,600 violent crimes ( excluding homicide ) against whites , while whites committed a yearly average of 99,403 violent crimes against blacks .
In other words , blacks were the attackers in about 85 percent of all violent crimes involving blacks and whites , while whites were the attackers in 15 percent .
[ 1 ] Those broad figures , however , do not even @ @ @ @ @ @ @ interracial crime .
To get a complete picture , we must also look at crime statistics from the perspective of the offender .
That is , when a given violent offender chooses a victim to target for a crime , does he tend to target a victim who is a fellow member of his own racial group , or does he tend to go after a victim from another racial group ?
Here are the facts : • When white offenders committed crimes of violence ( excluding homicide ) against either whites or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ victims 95.8 percent of the time , and they went after black victims a mere 4.1 percent of the time .
• By contrast , when black offenders committed crimes of violence against either whites or blacks in 2012-13 , they targeted white victims a whopping 48.5 percent of the time , and they went after black victims 51.4 percent of the time .
[ 2 ] If we factor into the equation the relative sizes of America 's white and black populations , we find that , statistically , any given black @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more likely to attack a white , than vice versa .
In more recent years , the disproportionate prevalence of black-on-white crime has only gotten worse .
According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics , in 2018 there were 593,598 interracial violent victimizations ( excluding homicide ) between blacks and whites in the United States .
Blacks committed 537,204 of those interracial felonies , or 90.4 percent , while whites committed 56,394 of them , or about 9.5 percent .
Moreover : • When white offenders committed crimes of violence against either whites @ @ @ @ @ @ @ white victims 97.3 percent of the time , and they went after black victims 2.6 percent of the time .
• By contrast , when black offenders committed crimes of violence against either whites or blacks during that same year , they targeted white victims 58 percent of the time , and they went after black victims 42 percent of the time .
[ 3 ] City Journal also reports that according to Justice Department data , blacks in 2018 were overrepresented among the perpetrators of offenses classified as “ hate crimes ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ underrepresented by 24 percent .
These numbers are staggering .
If America were teeming with white racism , those guilty of interracial crime would be disproportionately white .
But instead , the exact opposite is the case .
Thus , the enormous amount of attention given to white-on-black attacks – which are statistically rare in the United States – is an obscene and senseless absurdity .
The notion of ubiquitous white racism manifesting itself in unacceptably high levels of white violence against blacks , is one of the most destructive and monstrously evil @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of racial mistrust and animosity that are wholly unwarranted .

Logan Allen Stacks, a 17-year-old white boy who was gunned down by two black teens on March 27 in Lancaster County, South Carolina;
Dr. Beth Potter, a 52-year-old white physician who dedicated her career to helping “underserved communities,” and her husband, educational consultant Robin Carre, who were shot execution-style by a pair of black teens on March 30 in Madison, Wisconsin; and
Kristopher Dacus, a 33-year-old white man who on February 26 was shot multiple times and killed by four black teens in the North Little Rock, Arkansas cemetery where he worked.
Let us assume for a moment that Ahmaud Arbery – who quite obviously was a volatile and menacing character with a criminal history – was in fact the innocent victim of a horrific, wholly unjustifiable murder. Even if that were the case, why should his death garner more attention from American media outlets and civil rights activists, than, say, the deaths of the 13 aforementioned whites whose lives were mercilessly snuffed out by black killers in 6 different states? Perhaps a case could be made in favor of such a double standard if white-on-black killings were commonplace in American society – on the theory that the condemnation of such occurrences might help raise people’s collective consciousness about the deadly ramifications of white racism. But in fact, white-on-black homicides in the U.S. have been exceedingly rare for many decades.

In 2012 and 2013, for instance, blacks in the U.S. committed an annual average of 560,600 violent crimes (excluding homicide) against whites, while whites committed a yearly average of 99,403 violent crimes against blacks.

If we factor into the equation the relative sizes of America’s white and black populations, we find that, statistically, any given black person in 2012-13 was about 27 times more likely to attack a white, than vice versa.
In more recent years, the disproportionate prevalence of black-on-white crime has only gotten worse.

Since the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, commonly known as novel coronavirus, first broke out in Wuhan, China, the World Health Organization (WHO) repeated the Chinese regime's talking points. It initially parroted the Chinese regime’s official statements that there was little or no risk of human-to-human transmission of the virus. Mounting evidence, including from leaked internal documents, however, shows that the regime knew about the outbreak’s severity and hid it from the public. The virus has since spread to more than 200 countries and territories, with more than 4 million people infected and more than 300,000 deaths worldwide.
A growing number of countries are calling for an evaluation of the WHO's pandemic response.

In unrelated news Trump also had a few tweets about John Kelly, who said this about Trump today:
Former White House chief of staff John Kelly said Thursday that President Donald Trump “has clearly forgotten” the circumstances of former Defense Secretary Jim Mattis’s departure from the administration, breaking with his former boss to side with a fellow retired Marine Corps general. In an interview with The Washington Post, Kelly contradicted Trump’s claim that he had fired Mattis. Kelly called Mattis “an honorable man” and described Trump’s Twitter attack on the former Defense secretary as “nasty.” “The president did not fire him. He did not ask for his resignation,” Kelly, who was Trump’s chief of staff when Mattis departed the administration, told the Washington Post. “The president has clearly forgotten how it actually happened or is confused.”
Trump tweeted:
John Kelly didn’t know I was going to fire James Mattis, nor did he have any knowledge of my asking for a letter of resignation. Why would I tell him, he was not… — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 4, 2020
…in my inner-circle, was totally exhausted by the job, and in the end just slinked away into obscurity. They all want to come back for a piece of the limelight! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 4, 2020
The problem with asking for someone to give you a letter of resignation, which you do as a courtesy to help them save face, is that it is then harder to say you fired them. I did fire James Mattis. He was no good for Obama, who fired him also, and was no good for me! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 4, 2020

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — A towering statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee will be removed “as soon as possible” from Richmond’s Monument Avenue, Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam said Thursday.
The statue, which sits on state property, move to storage while Northam’s administration works “with the community to determine its future,” the governor said at a news conference where the announcement was met with extended applause.
Northam made the decision after days of angry protests in Richmond and across the country over the death of George Floyd, a black man who died after a white police officer pressed a knee into his neck while he pleaded for air
“You see, in Virginia, we no longer preach a false version of history. One that pretends the Civil War was about ‘state rights’ and not the evils of slavery. No one believes that any longer,” Northam said.
The decision came a day after Richmond’s mayor, Levar Stoney, announced he will seek to remove the other four Confederate statues along Monument Avenue, a prestigious residential street and National Historic Landmark district.
Together, the decisions mark a striking departure from recent years when even after a violent rally of white supremacists descended on Charlottesville in 2017 and other Confederate monuments started falling around the country, Virginia did not make the same changes.
In part, local governments were hamstrung by a state law that protects memorials to war veterans. That law was amended earlier this year by the new Democratic majority at the statehouse and signed by Northam. When the changes go into effect July 1, localities will be able to decide the monuments’ fate.
As for the Lee statue, Northam and his predecessor, fellow Democrat Terry McAuliffe, have not previously pressed the issue.
McAuliffe said in the aftermath of the Charlottesville rally, where a woman was killed after an avowed white supremacist drove a car into a crowd, that he lacked the authority to remove the statue without General Assembly approval. Some activists and attorneys, including staff of the American Civil Liberties Union of Virginia, disagreed.
Northam said earlier this year that he was still studying the issue.
The statues on Monument Avenue are among the most prominent collection of tributes to the Confederacy in the nation.
Today, Lee’s 21-foot (6-meter) bronze equestrian sculpture rises atop a pedestal nearly twice that tall on a grassy circle 200 feet (about 61 meters) in diameter.
Northam noted the enormous size of the monument in his remarks Thursday.
“We put things on pedestals when we want people to look up,” he said. “Think about the message that this sends to people coming from around the world to visit the capital city of one of the largest states in our country. Or to young children.”

A descendant of Lee, the Rev. Robert W. Lee IV, has also endorsed the monument’s removal.
“Today is a day of justice not for my family but the families of countless enslaved persons who continually have fought for justice both long before and long after the Civil War,” Lee, who attended the governor’s press conference, said in a statement. “Though I know the statue’s eventual promised removal won’t fix the issues we face it is a sign that sentiments and hearts are changing toward justice.”
Northam’s decision on the statue marks his most visible action so far to make good on his pledge to devote his term to promoting racial equity after a scandal over a racist photo that appeared on his medical school yearbook page nearly forced him from office last year.
