‘Woke’ injustice: Smollett’s escape isn’t even the beginning (corrosive race politics must end)

SNIP----the dismissal of sworn confessions of Smollett’s co-conspirators and reams of physical evidence, is the latest example of identity politics . Chicago feminist prosecutor Kim Foxx is among local progressive prosecutors who came to power playing race politics. Foxx campaigned on the Critical Race Theory credo that the criminal justice system is endemically biased. She inveighed against the so-called school-to-prison pipeline and promised to reduce racial disparities in prosecutions......she dismissed aggravated battery charges against a 16-year-old who attacked two Chicago police officers....a pattern of favoring offenders over police officers.

Foxx operates in an insular cultural milieu that believes prosecuting Smollett could have sent another black man to prison.

Jussie Smollett not only denied responsibility, he proclaimed that his innocence has been vindicated. Smollett spent 16 hours at Jesse Jackson’s Rainbow PUSH headquarters “encouraging visitors to purchase PUSH gear” and offering marketing tips, Jesse Jackson said....... the political fever around “hate” in Trump’s America is a more pressing political concern than garden-variety drive-bys, since both the victim and the perpetrator are almost invariably black.

Before Foxx is Maryland’s State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby, a product of the racism-industrial complex.......she brought inflated charges against six Baltimore police officers for the death of a drug dealer and was rebuked by a judge for her prosecutorial overreach.

More and more law school graduates, steeped in Believe Survivors ideology and Critical Race Theory, will enter positions of power. Whether they erode our expectations of political neutrality in favor of “social justice” remains to be seen. The dismissal of the Smollett indictment will encourage more such social justice-inspired hate-crime hoaxes, and they will continue to find a credulous audience in the media and among academic and political elites.

Smollett is still engaging in victimology, vowing to “fight for justice, equality and betterment of marginalized people everywhere."

Let’s not forget the particularly despicable, and successful, hit on Roy Moore. He did not acquit himself well, but that was probably the dirtiest trick he’d seen in 40+ years of politics. Was at the time one of the dirtiest I’ve seen, and I’ve been involved in a lot nastier political locales than Alabama.

Yes, that’s a good point - include him on “the list”.

George Soros is putting big money behind 'prosecutors' who favor criminals and 'people of color'... it's a travesty...

Correction needed.

Its not the latest “identity politics.”

Its the latest effect of Liberal Fascism,

A Liberal Fascism which gives us all a look at what “justice” would be under Beeto Magneeto, Kamala Harris, Joe the Apologist, or Corey Snooker. One law for blacks, illegal immigrants and others, and another law for white people, Asians and Jews.

Under this system of liberal fascist justice, you have to be “connected” to get due process of any kind.

This Smollett shit is straight out of the novel “Animal Farm.” Everyone who brought this liberal fascist “justice”
needs to be fired, disbarred or otherwise disgraced and terminated.They are felons and racketeers of the 1st water.
Our federal RICO statute should be used against them.

Liberal Fascism is very much here folks, and this is how it was begun:

Partner, Cook County, Illinois is one of the most corrupt counties in this great country of ours and the main reason a lot of folks are leaving the state of Illinois.

It is corrupt to the core and it has been corrupt to the core ever since Mayor Daley and now that "Big Rat Rahm Emmanuel" has been the mayor of the corrupt city of Chicago and Rahm is probably the most corrupt mayor in the U.S.

We should still remember this guy as one of the most corrupt during the Clintoon administration.

That will happen when the races separate themselves into separate countries.

How much more racial discord must we go through before that reality sinks in!

““(corrosive race politics must end)”

Why would it end? It’s incredibly effective.”

That’s a pleading not a call to action. Who exactly does the author expect to end the “corrosive race politics”? Passive statements such as those are the ultimate in passing the buck.

Frank Nitti was the mentor to Saul Alinsky.

“Frank Nitti was the mentor to Saul Alinsky.”

So was Hilary Clinton.
