GoFundMe has removed a crowdfunding effort aimed at raising $5million toward bail for Darrell Brooks, the Waukesha, Wisconsin 'killer' who allegedly plowed his red SUV into scores of people during a holiday parade on Sunday, killing six and injured dozens more.

Brooks, who was charged with five counts of homicide, was arraigned in court on Tuesday.

Waukesha Court Commissioner Kevin M. Costello set bail at $5million - a move that sparked anger considering Brooks’ violent past that includes convictions for felonies...

...Prosecutors said they're investigating their bail recommendation in that case, calling it inappropriately low..

The media in this country can absolutely go to the lowest bowels of hell for ignoring Afghanistan. All those American citizens still trapped there and they’ve been utterly abandoned, thrown out like yesterdays trash. If we had a REAL media, they would be focusing on this every day.

the clip shown of him being led into the court room and seated beside his white female defender lawyer patting him on the back and whispering in his ear like “its ok don’t worry are they treating you well?” This is also the evil we have to deal with in this country

Good they did this because otherwise they needed to be destroyed. Hubby made a good point, no legal fundraising just disease and other hardships.

"There is a darkness in this country, and it’s seen in the media, politicians and some in performing arts."

Many people have been indoctrinated with a false worldview, and are eager to embrace outright falsehoods, misrepresentations and half-truths to feel a sense of validation, and there are no shortage of those willing to purvey falsehoods for power, influence, money, control, etc.

If you really want to know who is behind it all, merely ask yourself who is the father of all lies...

The OJ trial issue was racism. Remember?

I have relatives in Waukesha and spoke to them yesterday. The mood in the city is like NYC after 9/11.

don’t worry, Kamala Harris will send out a request for donations on his behalf, as she did for the Black Lies Matter rioters last year.

Public spotlight crushed a bit of hypocrisy which otherwise would have gone unnoticed..

Let him bail out... I’m sure there are some locals that would love to have a “meeting” with him. Be careful what you wish for.

Good example how “wokeism” is a poison. If GFM took a principled approach that a person is innocent until proven guilty, they could have avoided the bad publicity. As it is, they’re getting everything they deserve, IMHO.

One of Jack London’s great books comes into play here. Guess which one?
