After reportedly going on a “real-estate buying binge,” purchasing “four homes with a price tag totaling upwards of $3 million,” Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Khan-Cullors has been the target of bipartisan criticism accusing the self-proclaimed “trained Marxist” of being a hypocrite.
Patrisse Cullors is a co-founder of Blacks Lives Matter. About her background, she said in 2015: “The first thing, I think, is that we actually do have an ideological frame. Myself and Alicia (Garza, BLM co-founder) in particular are trained organizers.” Cullors also said: “We are trained Marxists. We are super-versed on, sort of, ideological theories. And I think that what we really tried to do is build a movement that could be utilized by many, many black folk.”

And Facebook is censoring the NY Post’s story.
One day after eight women were murdered in Atlanta, six of whom were Asian American, Christopher Hamner posted on Facebook that we’ve “all had bad days but it never justifies hate crimes.” But the day before, Hamner allegedly committed a hate crime against an Asian American woman in Seattle. It wasn’t his only alleged victim.

An elderly Mexican-American woman was badly beaten by a racist bus passenger who mistook her for an Asian-American, the victim’s son said.
The 70-year-old victim, named only as Becky by her son Pete, suffered a concussion, a broken nose, swollen eyes and had her hair pulled out last Friday.
She was attacked while on her way to go grocery shopping in Los Angeles’ Eagle Rock neighborhood.
The ex-officer accused of killing George Floyd says he will not testify in his defence as the murder trial hears from its final witnesses.
Derek Chauvin denies killing Mr Floyd. Jurors are due to begin deciding his fate early next week.

As outrageous as this next event is, the media refuses to cover it. A mob protesting the Daunte Wright shooting broke into the Columbus, Ohio police headquarters. One ‘protester’ assaulted an officer with a wooden club.
The police had to pepper spray the mob as they poured in.
They identified as Black Lives Matter.
Kudos to Andrew Kerr of the Daily Caller News Foundation for digging up documents filed with the state of California that reveal some of the big bucks that Patrisse Cullors, AKA Patrisse Khan Cullors, has raked in to help pay for her amazing real estate buying binge. So far, she and her partner, Janaya Khan, have reportedly laid out $3.2 million for four properties across the United States, including a hideaway in lily-white Topanga Canyon, suitable for watching rioters burn urban neighborhoods in complete safety.
For the fourth night in a row, protesters gathered Wednesday night outside the Brooklyn Center Police Department, many of them demanding that more serious charges be brought against the former police officer who fatally shot Daunte Wright.
“What she did is murder! How do you not know your Taser from your gun?” asked Loretta VanPelt of TCC4Justice, a group seeking police accountability, before a 7 p.m. rally began.
Earlier Wednesday, former Brooklyn Center officer Kimberly A. Potter was arrested and charged with second-degree manslaughter. She resigned on Tuesday.
Officer arrested, charged with second-degree manslaughter in killing of Daunte Wright
Former Brooklyn Center police officer Kimberly A. Potter was arrested late Wednesday morning at the offices of the state Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, the agency said in a statement.
Potter, who resigned from the police department on Tuesday, was charged with second-degree manslaughter in the shooting death on Sunday of Daunte Wright, the Washington County Attorney’s Office said.
She was booked into Hennepin County jail shortly after noon, jail records show. Potter posted $100,000 bond and was released from custody Wednesday evening.

Black Lives Matter co-founder and executive director Patrisse Cullors earned nearly $20,000 a month serving as the chairwoman of a Los Angeles jail reform group in 2019, according to campaign finance records obtained by the Daily Caller.
Records show that Reform LA Jails paid Cullors a total of $191,000 in 2019 through her consulting firm, Janaya and Patrisse Consulting with the description: “P. Cullors, Principal Officer, Business Owner.” The payments were distributed to Cullors in multiple deposits, with the first deposit of $51,000 occurring between January 2019 and the end of June 2019.
Kimberly Potter, the former Minnesota police officer who fatally shot Daunte Wright after mistakenly drawing her gun instead of her Taser, will be charged with second-degree manslaughter, prosecutors said Wednesday.
Washington County Attorney Peter Orput, who is prosecuting the fatal incident, said details of the charges will be released later, according to the Twin Cities Pioneer Press.

‘Communist’ BLM founder Patrisse Cullors defends her $3MILLION property portfolio – including private jet hangar in garden – and claims she’s not been paid since 2019 and questions about it are a ‘tactic of terror to silence her’
Critics of a Black Lives Matter co-founder’s recent multi-million dollar property spending spree have been described as promoting ‘a tradition of terror by white supremacists’ for questioning the $3 million portfolio accumulated by the self-professed ‘trained Marxist’.
Patrisse Cullors, 37, raised eyebrows last week when it emerged that she had spent $1.4 million on a Los Angeles property – her fourth home, and her third in the city – in an overwhelmingly white neighborhood.
The New York Post reported Cullors had also bought two other LA homes in recent years, and paid $415,000 for a 3.2 acre property in Georgia.
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The judge at Derek Chauvin’s murder trial Wednesday turned down a defense request to acquit the former officer in George Floyd’s death.
Judge Peter Cahill pressed on with the case after Chauvin attorney Eric Nelson argued that prosecutors had failed to prove that Chauvin killed Floyd. Requests for an acquittal are routinely made midway through a trial and are usually denied.
Nelson said the prosecution’s expert witnesses gave conflicting opinions about what caused Floyd’s death after the 46-year-old Black man was pinned under the white officer’s knee for what authorities say was 9 1/2 minutes last May.
Derek Chauvin trial: Use of force ‘justified’ says defence expert
A police officer was “justified” in pinning George Floyd to the ground before his death, says a use-of-force expert called by the defence team.
Barry Brodd told the trial in Minnesota that Derek Chauvin – who denies murder – acted with “objective reasonableness” during the arrest last May.
Video of Mr Chauvin kneeling on the neck of Mr Floyd led to worldwide protests against racism and policing.

The third night of Daunte Wright protests turned violent as demonstrators clashed with police in Minneapolis while Portland’s police union building was set on fire during the riot.
At least 60 people were arrested at protests in Portland, Minneapolis, New York, Philadelphia and Chicago overnight on Tuesday.
Curfews had been in place for Brooklyn Center, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Crystal, Columbia Heights, New Hope and Maple Grove from 10pm local time, but had done little to stem the demonstrators.
We learned yesterday that Daunte Wright’s death in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota occurred after Wright wildly fought off the arresting officers, only to have an officer mistake her gun for her taser. The complete absence of information about Wright’s cause of death didn’t stop the usual suspects from going to war against their own community, looting and destroying property. However, unlike last year, the escalation against the police is getting more vicious because people are being encouraged to dox police and threaten their families.
Daunte Wright choked a woman and threatened to shoot her if she did not hand over $820 she had stuffed in her bra, court papers obtained by DailyMail.com allege.
That is the case that led to a warrant for his arrest at the time he was shot and killed by police officer Kimberly Potter in Minnesota on Sunday, leading to days of unrest.
And online speculation that he did not know there was a warrant out for his arrest is false, DailyMail.com has learned. A letter returned to the court for having a wrong address was giving notice of a court date in August and had nothing to do with the warrant.
