FNC Exclusive: Former DOJ Attorney Discusses New Black Panther Party Voter Intimidation Case

Fox News ^ | 30 June 2010 | MEGYN KELLY

[SkyPilot]

J. CHRISTIAN ADAMS, FORMER JUSTIC DEPARTMENT LAWYER: Well, people were standing in front of the polls with weapons in Philadelphia on the day that President Obama was elected in 2008. The Justice Department brought a case in January under the voter intimidation statutes against the New Black Panther Party, the individuals who organized the deployment and the folks with the weapons in Philadelphia at the polls.

MEGYN KELLY, "AMERICA LIVE" HOST: Ok, and so the guy we see banging the baton, he was one defendant. The guy next to him who was said to have been saying intimidating things, he was a defendant. The New Black Panther Party was a defendant and the head of it was a defendant.

ADAMS: That’s right, all four.

KELLY: Ok, and what was basically the heart of the case against them.

ADAMS: Yeah, this 1965 Voting Rights Act protects voters from voter intimidation. You’re supposed to be able to go vote without somebody with a weapon shouting racial slurs at you like these folks were doing in Philadelphia.

KELLY: What were they saying?

ADAMS: Well, they said, “You’re about to be ruled by the black man, Cracker”. They called people “white devils”. They menaced, they tapped their baton. They tried to stop people from entering the polls.

KELLY: Is there any question in your mind that that violates the law.

ADAMS: No, nor anybody that worked on the case. It’s the easiest case I ever had at the Justice Department. It doesn’t get any easier than this. If this doesn’t constitute voter intimidation, nothing will.

KELLY: And you had, you had not just that video tape, which we’ve all now seen, but you had witness testimony from some credible witnesses who were there.

[anniegetyourgun]

Yep. His Secret Service code name is apt. And they didn’t even know him when they gave him the nick.

[TigersEye]

I guess I missed the memo. What is his SS code name?

“Although it [The New Black Panther Party] says it sees capitalism as the fundamental problem with the world and “revolution” as the solution, the new party does not draw its influences from Marxism or Maoism as the original party did. Instead, in a carefully-worded, roundabout form of ethnic nationalism,[8] they say that Marx based his ideology and teachings on indigenous African cultures, and that the NBPP therefore need not look to Marxism or Maoism as a basis for their program, but can look to ideologies that stem directly from those African origins.”

SEAN HANNITY: But Reverend Jeremiah Wright is not backing down and has not for years and in his strong stance on the teaching of black liberation theology is nothing new. He had the same things to say last spring when he appeared on "Hannity & Colmes:"

WRIGHT: If you're not going to talk about theology in context, if you're not going to talk about liberation theology that came out of the '60s, systematized black liberation theology that started with Jim Cone in 1968 and the writings of Cone and the writings of Dwight Hopkins and the writings of womynist theologians and Asian theologians and Hispanic theologians, then you can't talk about the black value system.

HANNITY: But I'm a — reverend

WRIGHT: Do you know liberation theology, sir?

BTW: That's Jerry Jackson on the right.

So a couple of political appointees had the case dismissed for “political” reasons? Do they think the New Black Panthers are good guys? Do they want to encourage this kind of thing? Will they go on TV to answer these questions?

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

America is in the process of being vanquished. The conquerors are a coalition of perverts and other vice-addicts, actors, actresses, non-Christians, blacks, Mexicans and soon to be added felons. They want your labor, property, women and children.

As the Gaul said to the Roman;"Woe to the conquered!"

( Thanks for the ping!)

Well, they said, “You’re about to be ruled by the black man, Cracker”. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Well, he was right about that, and now we see the demographoc warfare that has resulted.

This is called "historic justice" which is the calling card of every fascist movement in history.

And this is only what we see. You can imagine what it will be like when people will be applying for Social Security and the like, or any federal program.

Barry Soetoro and his running dogs have to go.

[a real Sheila]

I still do not understand WHY the panthers were at ANY polls in Philly, a city that was going to go overwhelmingly for BHO.

What was the point?
Perhaps this was all staged with the plan that later, O would show us white crackers that “the black man” is ruling us and that they can do whatever the H they want to do.

[kitkat]

KAS, please ping me when you put part two on FR.

[Candor7]

PING! Ex DOJ Atty reveals all on Black Panther Case.

[Stentor]

Do they think the New Black Panthers are good guys?

It's the wrong question. The white man is the enemy. "The enemy of my enemy is my friend". There is a great deal of enjoyment had watching the white man get it up the butt. Reverend Wright is exceedingly popular in the black "churches". Never underestimate the depth of hatred out there.

Paradoxically, these NBP idiots better hope this government is always in a position to protect them even as they try to destroy it.

[mojitojoe]

I have no idea. They were on his my space page until FReepers found it and he took it down immediately. Could be ‘98 or maybe the date was just wrong on his camera. Some people don’t make sure the camera date is correct.

UPDATE! (May, 2010): Both the original and cache version of Jackson's MySpace page have been deleted. However, the following linked Washington Times article has several screen captures of the original page, although they apparently don't include any of them waving the guns.

**UPDATE 2! (May, 2010): Now even the Washington Times article has been deleted. Perhaps the WT delete all articles that are months old?

I stand corrected. Looks like the Washington Times piece is back. For a few days at least it had disappeared.

[mojitojoe]

I have screen shots, I just have to find them.

[ETL]

Before it “disappears” again, here is some of what’s there:

“The Department of Justice recently dropped the conviction of Jerry Jackson member of the “New Black Panther Party for Self-Defense” (NBPP). The Washington Times has covered the Black Panther reversal at the Department of Justice revealing, “Associate Attorney General Thomas J. Perelli, No.3 official in the Obama Justice Department, was consulted and ultimately approved a decision in May to reverse course and drop a civil complaint accusing three members of the New Black Panther Party of intimidating voters in Philadelphia during November’s election, according to interviews.”

It all began when Mr. Jackson stood outside a Philadelphia polling area with Malik Zulu Shabazz and another New Black Panther member during the 2008 presidential election. They later faced charges for intimidating voters on November 4th, 2008. Appointed to be a poll watcher in 2008 for the Democratic Party and the Obama campaign, Mr. Jackson is also an elected member of Philadelphia’s 14th Ward Democratic Committee.

The NBPP member has not stayed away from expressing his views on a social media site like MySpace. Mr. Jackson’s original MySpace site is chock full of disturbing images with explicit racial overtones.

***Since Friday evening (July 31st) to Saturday morning (August 1st), Mr. Jackson’s MySpace page has changed radically since the posting of this blog. However, there are screen captures available below from Mr.Jackson’s original MySpace page. A sample of some of the phrases and images on his MySpace page include:(***Warning the following image links are extremely offensive in nature***)

“BLACK POWER,BLACK LOVE,BLACK UNITY,BLACK MINDS,KILLIN CRAKKKAS”

“F*** Whitey’s Christmas”

An image of an execution scene from the cult hit film “Pulp Fiction”

A photo of a man holding a sign saying, “DEPORT WHITE PEOPLE”

A derogatory anti-cop poster titled “BEWARE OF PIG” ...”

“BLACK POWER,BLACK LOVE,BLACK UNITY,BLACK MINDS,KILLIN CRAKKKAS”
“F*** Whitey’s Christmas”
An image of an execution scene from the cult hit film “Pulp Fiction”
A photo of a man holding a sign saying, “DEPORT WHITE PEOPLE”
A derogatory anti-cop poster titled “BEWARE OF PIG”
An image of Saddam Hussein before his execution and profanity towards the police
A photo of a cop sitting next to a black child in a toy car. Beneath the image the phrase “Racial Profiling: It Starts Early”
A photoshopped movie poster of the “Bourne Supremacy” is re-worded to say “The Bourne White Supremacy” A swastika is added to Matt Damon’s cheek, and the scope of his firearm is photoshopped to look as if he is about to shoot a black man. The “n” word is used to describe who “Matt Damon hates” in this movie poster. The phrase, “They should have just stayed in Africa” is photoshopped at the top of the image.
It is hard to believe such web content is coming from an elected party official in Philadelphia, yet Mr. Jackson has been appointed again to be a poll watcher for the upcoming Democratic Primary in Philadelphia’s municipal election. Mr. Obama may think a White House “beer summit” will help smooth over racial ills, but his justice department is doing the country no favors when they give Jerry Jackson and Malik Zulu Shabazz a free pass.
Update 10:00pm: Mr. Jackson’s MySpace page has been removed. A cached version is available through the link now.
Update 11:00 pm: description of The Bourne Supremacy poster has been re-worded to show further detail.
Update July 31, 2009 10:30 am: The Washington Times Editorial page has come out with new information about the Justice Department’s cover up in the New Black Panther Case, and Washington Times reporter Jerry Seper is writing that lawmakers on the Hill are wanting to take a second look into the panther case.
***Update August 1, 2009 3:00 pm: A new MySpace page has appeared in the google cache of Mr. Jackson’s MySpace page. Screen captures are available of the original MySpace page at the links within the body of the blog. (h/t Freerepublic.com)
