#BlackLivesMatter

Was a Grammy-winning rapper singing about crimes he committed or simply expressing himself as an artist? New legislation in the US sets guardrails on the use of lyrics as evidence in criminal cases.

Under the alias Young Thug, Jeffery Lamar Williams, 31, has sold more than 2.5 million albums and been hailed as “”the 21st century’s most influential rapper”.

But prosecutors in his native Atlanta are not impressed. In May, Mr Williams was arrested on racketeering and gang-related charges and has been in jail since. This month, he was denied bond for a third time.

Prosecutors allege that Young Stoner Life (YSL) Records, the rap label Mr Williams founded, is the front for an organised crime syndicate responsible for “75 to 80% of violent crime” in the city.

Interesting case.

Two criminal justice PACs founded by Shaun King have spent more than half a million dollars in donations to pay for legal fees in a defamation case, public records show.

Activist King and a group he founded, Real Justice PAC, are both being sued by Carlos Vega, a former Philadelphia prosecutor who lost a Democratic primary race against the city’s progressive District Attorney Lawrence Krasner in May 2021. Vega accused King of spreading “false statements” about his 35-year law enforcement career to his millions of social media followers in order to get Krasner re-elected.

A Black Lives Matter activist whose Boston non-profit was shut down amid a federal fraud case against her after she allegedly blew thousands in charity donations on dinners, vacations and nail salon trips, is now requesting to apply for unemployment benefits.

Monica Cannon-Grant, 41, the former head of the non-profit ‘Violence in Boston,’ and her husband, Clark Grant, 38, were federally indicted in March for allegedly soliciting millions of dollars in donations following the 2020 killing of George Floyd that they used for their own personal gain.

They’re also accused of illegally collecting an estimated $100,000 in pandemic unemployment benefits and lying on a mortgage application.

There’s an old saying: A hit dog will holler.

That’s what progressive grifter Shaun King appears to be doing following a Washington Free Beacon report that he used tens of thousands of dollars of donor money from his social justice PAC to buy a purebred dog. King defended the purchase in social media posts and vowed to “return the pain back to those that have hurt my family.”

Four US police officers have been arrested and charged over the fatal 2020 shooting of Breonna Taylor.

Ms Taylor was killed in her home in Louisville, Kentucky by plainclothes police who were executing a “no-knock” search warrant.

The hospital worker, 26, was shot multiple times as officers stormed the apartment shortly after midnight as she was in bed with her boyfriend.

Her death sparked racial injustice protests around the country.

Controversial Black Lives Matter activist Shaun King claimed he needed a pricey guard dog for 24/7 security for his family due to the barrage of threats from white supremacists, who he alleges have tried to break into his home and harass his children.

On Tuesday, King wrote in a lengthy Facebook post about what his ‘life has become.’

‘I spend more time each day now thinking about how to keep my family safe than I do doing the actually work I’m called to do,’ he wrote. ‘⁣So know this, when you see reports about the money it costs to keep me and my family safe, it’s nowhere near enough. Not at all. Not even close.⁣’

Shaun King’s social justice PAC is going to the dogs. Literally.

Grassroots Law PAC, which the progressive grifter founded to elect soft-on-crime local officials, paid roughly $40,000 since December to the California-based Potrero Performance Dogs, according to campaign finance disclosures. The payments are labeled for “contractor services,” making their purpose difficult to discern. But days after a $30,650 payment in February, King welcomed a “new member of the King family”: an award-winning mastiff bred by Potrero named Marz.

The Black Lives Matter set will exploit any tragedy to further its divisive agenda.

Twenty-year-old Tekle Sundberg met a tragic end last week. Police were called to his Minneapolis apartment block last Wednesday night. Apparently in the grip of an acute mental-health crisis, Sundberg was firing a pistol wildly from inside his apartment. His neighbour, Arabella Foss-Yarbrough, called 911 after several bullets were shot through her apartment walls. She was cooking dinner for her kids, aged two and four, at the time. When the police arrived, Sundberg fired more shots into the hallway, narrowly missing officers. Police evacuated Foss-Yarbrough and her children, moments after more shots had rung out. A six-hour standoff ensued. Sundberg blasted music from his apartment, periodically hanging out of his window and talking gibberish. Police allege he threatened to shoot officers. According to the timeline released by Minneapolis police, he appeared again at his window at around 4.15am, at which point police snipers shot him dead, believing he was brandishing his gun.

Women Against Abuse discouraged black domestic abuse victims from calling the police. Yes, you read that right.

It was just two months after the death of George Floyd that one of the largest domestic violence nonprofits in the United States, Women Against Abuse, brought in several diversity consultants to conduct a racial-equity audit. The goal of the audit, Women Against Abuse told staffers, was to become “a fully inclusive, multicultural, and antiracist institution.”

A Minneapolis mom could be seen on video confronting Black Lives Matter protesters gathered outside the home of a man who was fatally shot by police after a tense six-hour standoff.

The mother, Arabella Foss-Yarbrough, called police last Wednesday night after her neighbor Andrew “Tekle” Sundberg allegedly fired shots into her apartment as she was cooking for her two young children.

Arabella Foss-Yarbrough, who survived the shooting from Andrew Tekle Sundberg argued with protesters to go home.

“He tried to kill me in front of my kids!…There’s bullet holes in my kitchen!—”

“—Not in you though!”

The Queens bus rider assaulted in an alleged “anti-white” crime told The Post on Sunday that one of her attackers accused her of being a fan of former President Donald Trump before the assailants bashed her on the head.

Jill LeCroix, a 57-year-old grandma of five, was left bleeding after she was blitzed by three black women July 9 while riding the city bus — an attack now being investigated by the NYPD’s Hate Crime Task Force.

Jayland Walker, a 25-year-old delivery driver who was killed by police while fleeing a traffic stop last month in Akron, Ohio, suffered 46 gunshot wounds throughout his body, a medical examiner’s office determined.

Walker died of blood loss from his injuries, and his manner of death was ruled a homicide, Summit County Medical Examiner Lisa Kohler revealed Friday.

“The autopsy examination determined that Mr. Walker had 46 gunshot wound entrance or graze injuries. A graze injury results when the bullet runs along the surface of the skin but does not enter a specific area of the body,” Kohler wrote in an autopsy report obtained by the Washington Examiner.
