Van Jones and Jeffry Lord Go Toe to Toe on CNN
Jeffrey Lord, CNN analyst ruffled some feathers last week claiming the KKK is a “leftest group”. I’m sure raising the eyebrows of many historians as well as members of the KKK. .. Not to mention journalists wh have watched the KKK and other white supremacist groups gather around Donald Trump and the Republican Party.
Last night, in a panel discussion having to do with the Super Tuesday Primary results…Lord and Van Jones had some fireworks.
Van Jones on Trump’s “Divide the Races” Strategy
What I think Van misses is that Trump isn’t just trying to divide black and Hispanic – he is trying to pit all the racial and ethnic groups against each other. I have a feeling that if by some grand mistake Trump wins…Jewish folks are going to have their white card confiscated. And all those Cubans who been voting Republican…May just wind up in the back of the bus.
Van Jones and the Tamir Rice Murder Coverup
Activist Laura Cowan –
“That is completely preposterous on its face,” Jones said. “And yet, this prosecutor went above and beyond the call of duty to spend extra money and took extra time to get these cops off. Prosecutors do not act this way under ordinary circumstances. Usually, they throw the book at you and then they tell you, ‘You explain to a judge and jury why you’re innocent. This particular prosecutor did the opposite of most prosecutors in this case.”
McGinty announced on Monday that a grand jury decided not to indict officers Frank Garmback and Timothy Loehmann, who drove close to the boy as he wielded an air pellet gun. Video of the incident shows Loehmann shooting and killing Rice almost instantly after jumping out of his patrol car.
However, Jones said, McGinty brought experts in to testify to the jury on behalf of the officers, a marked departure from the norm.
“To say that nothing happened here, nothing happened that should go to a jury — how about this: no medical aid after the kid is killed? How about criminal medical neglect?” Jones asked. “How about the fact that, under ordinary circumstances, a police officer would never put themselves in peril and then shoot their way out? The fact that the police officer drove into peril and then shot his way out — there’s not a traffic ticket you could issue? There’s not a misdemeanor here?”
