‘Communist’ BLM Grifter Patrisse Cullors defends her $3MILLION property portfolio claims questions about it are a ‘tactic of terror to silence her’

‘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.

Judge refuses request to acquit Chauvin in Floyd’s death

Judge refuses request to acquit Chauvin in Floyd’s death

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.

Daunte Wright protesters leak Kimberly Potter’s home address online forcing police to guard property: Officer ‘to be charged today’ following 3rd night of national unrest

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.

In Minnesota, attacks on police are escalating in ugly ways

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 had a warrant for attempted aggravated robbery after ‘choking and holding a woman at gunpoint for $820 in 2019’

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.

Rashida Tlaib calls for police to be abolished because force is ‘intentionally racist and cannot be reformed’ – calls Daunte Wright’s death ‘government-funded murder’

Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib has called for the abolishment of police following the fatal shooting of unarmed black man Daunte Wright.

The Michigan Rep. made the radical declaration on Twitter Monday – one day after Wright was shot dead at a traffic stop in Minnesota when a white cop reached for her gun instead of a Taser, which has been characterized as an accident.

‘It wasn’t an accident. Policing in our country is inherently & intentionally racist,’ Tlaib posted to Twitter.

WALSH: Over 500 White People Have Been Killed By Cops Since 2020. There Has Been No Rioting Over Those Deaths.

BLM militants smashed police cars, assaulted police officers, vandalized police stations, and looted local businesses in Minneapolis on Sunday night. Video footage shows the pillagers ransacking shoe stores, auto parts retailers, pharmacies, dollar stores, and even pizza restaurants. As we have learned in recent months, no ointment can numb the pain of systemic racism quite like an armful of stolen merchandise.

Daunte Wright’s parents refuse to accept veteran cop accidentally shot him dead after mistaking her gun for a taser

The parents of the 20-year-old black man shot dead by a veteran police officer during a traffic stop in Minneapolis say they are refusing to accept that the cop accidentally fired her gun instead of her taser.

Daunte Wright was fatally shot by Brooklyn Center Police Officer Kimberly Potter on Sunday after he was pulled over for what police said were expired license plate tags.

Police said a struggle broke out when they tried to arrest Wright after running his name and realizing he had an outstanding warrant.

Officer Kimberly Potter, who fatally shot Daunte Wright, was training rookie at the time

The Minnesota police veteran who fatally shot Daunte Wright was training another officer at the time of her fatal mistake, according to her association rep.

Kimberly Potter, 48, was formally identified Monday night as the officer caught on bodycam footage Sunday thinking she was firing a Taser at the 20-year-old black man — instead gasping, “Holy s–t. I just shot him!”

Officer intended to draw her taser in Daunte Wright shooting

Uh oh. The questions around the shooting last night in the Twin Cities will only multiply after this explanation — and indeed already have. The chief of the Brooklyn Center police department decided on his own to release the body-cam video of the incident that touched off riots at a press conference this afternoon. Chief Tim Gannon told reporters that the officer drew the wrong weapon, intending to tase Wright rather than shoot him…


More… Chief: Officer meant to use Taser, not firearm, on Daunte Wright

The police officer who fatally shot a man during a traffic stop in Brooklyn Center on Sunday appeared to do so accidentally, intending to fire her Taser, not her gun, Police Chief Tim Gannon said Monday.

Gannon made the assertion as the department released a body camera video that appeared to show the officer shouting, “Taser! Taser!” before she fired her gun, hitting Daunte Wright, 20.

“It is my belief that the officer had their intention to deploy the Taser but instead shot Mr. Wright with a single bullet,” the chief said during a packed news conference. “This appears to me, from what I viewed, and the officer’s reaction and distress immediately after, that this was an accidental discharge that resulted in a tragic death of Mr. Wright.”

In Chauvin Trial, BLM Mob Justice Comes Full Circle

There will be no Juror #8.

The BLM website tells us that in 2013 “three radical Black organizers — Alicia Garza, Patrisse Cullors, and Opal Tometi — created a Black-centered political will and movement building project called #BlackLivesMatter.”

On the website, to this day, the organizers proudly share the inspiration for the group’s creation: “It was in response to the acquittal of Trayvon Martin’s murderer, George Zimmerman.” The critical word here is “murderer.” An all-female jury believed rightly that Zimmerman shot Martin in self-defense and acquitted him of all charges, including murder. Their judgment simply did not matter to the three women who founded BLM.

Minneapolis: Brooklyn Center police fatally shoot Daunte Wright, 20, inflaming tensions during the Derek Chauvin trial

A Brooklyn Center police officer fatally shot a man during a traffic stop Sunday afternoon, inflaming already raw tensions between police and community members in the midst of the Derek Chauvin trial.

Relatives of Daunte Wright, 20, who is Black, told a tense crowd gathered at the scene in the northern Minneapolis suburb Sunday afternoon that Wright drove for a short distance after he was shot, crashed his car, and died at the scene.


Evidently the young man had an outstanding weapons warrant.

Reparations shopping proceeded as planned.

The whitewashing of Black Lives Matter

The whitewashing of Black Lives Matter

The Deep State has done its best to portray Black Lives Matter as a moderate movement.  Wikipedia describes BLM as “a decentralized political and social movement protesting against incidents of police brutality and all racially motivated violence against black people.”  Wikipedia says its loose structure has contributed to confusion in the press.  The confusion is convenient because it allows BLM to disavow any comments by its members the public finds offensive.  Wikipedia claims BLM, “protests have been overwhelmingly peaceful; when violence does occur, it is often committed by police or by counter-protestors.  Despite this, opponents have falsely portrayed the movement as violent.”  House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer doesn’t “accept” the premise that Antifa and BLM are violent.  ABC’s Sunny Hostin maintains that violent protests are “manufactured by the Trump campaign.”  All branches of the Deep State assert that BLM is a respectable non-violent movement.

Study: Cities With BLM Protests Had Up To 6,000 More Homicides Than Expected From 2014-2019

…Preliminary findings from a study conducted by Travis Campbell, a Ph.D. student at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, show that cities with protests had “somewhere between 1,000 and 6,000 more homicides than would have been expected if places with protests were on the same trend as places that did not have protests,” from 2014 to 2019, left-wing Vox reported.

The study also showed a reduction in lethal force by police, resulting in some 300 fewer deaths from 2014 to 2019…
