Jussie Smollett's Hate
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
Conservative pundits have pointed out that Democrat elites and the so-called "mainstream" media were quick to accept actor Jussie Smollett's story of being assaulted by two Trump-supporters.
It is clear now that he lied. Smollett said his attackers were white and that he would have been believed without question if his assailants had been "Muslim," "Mexican," or "black." They were black.
When asked why he thinks this happened, Smollett answered, "I have gone hard against 45, I have gone hard against this administration." The mainstream media were all too happy to embrace any story that promotes their belief that President Trump and his supporters are racist and "homophobic."
However, Smollett and the leftist media have a broader focus for their hatred than this president. They hate America. The alleged Smollett attack was designed not merely to prove that this president and his supporters are bigots, but to demonstrate once again that America is a hateful place where racism and homophobia run rampant.
The president's slogan, "Make America Great Again," is interpreted as code language for "make America white again." His opposition to illegal immigration is depicted as a racist ploy to keep nonwhite people out of the country. They know that President Trump is not the originator of what they see as America's sordid legacy of hatred and bigotry, but in their minds, he is its latest and best representative.
After the Charlottesville confrontation between white supremacists and radical leftists, the president's condemnation of both sides was deemed "racist." As a black Virginian, I took the same view. When he pointed out that the Mexicans who cross our southern border illegally are not that country's "best," he was stating the obvious, but that too was considered racist.
No matter what this president does to improve the lives of women, minorities, and all Americans, from the left's perspective, he is beyond redemption because he is the symptom. America is the disease. The left views us as a nation of white supremacy, white privilege, racism, sexism, homophobia, Islamophobia, inequality, oppression, corporate greed, and international imperialism. Instead of "America the Beautiful," they see ugly Americans. Instead of the "land of the free and the home of the brave," they see a land of the selfish and home of the brutal. Instead of compassionate people, they see planetary parasites and climate deniers dragging the world to cataclysmic destruction.
They see America as the world's nightmare. We drive SUVs, eat rich foods, and enrich billionaires while the world starves. We believe in a judgmental God, a bigoted Bible, and an antiquated Second Amendment right to bear arms, all of which makes us a narrow-minded nation of gun nuts. Our unprecedented prosperity was built on the backs of slaves, and our entire continent was stolen from American Indians. Our unparalleled contributions to mankind — industrial and technological advances; humanitarian generosity; the defeat of Nazism, communism, and other genocidal threats — are irrelevant. From the perspective of the left, we are an illegitimate country. Only "fundamentally transforming" America into a socialist state can pay for our sins.

He should be prosecuted for his hate crime. He'll enjoy his prison term.
The 'hate crime' Smollett committed on himself. He will be prosecuted for fraud, which is what he committed.
I hope he’s sent to prison for the max possible time. He has multiple charges some felonies. He committed a hate crime against every Trump voter in America.
God Knows, Trump voters have NEVER EVER been involved in anything like that...
they Hate Crime !
We do hate crime. Conservatives generally don’t do things like that.
If I orchestrated a fake attack against myself claiming it was two black guys from Black Lives Matter to stir up Hate and Bigotry you'd call it a Hate Crime and you'd be right.
Your last paragraph. Why did you say that?
You mean the quoted excerpt from the seeded article? Because the author believes that people like Smollett think like that to the end of the article and so do I.
which parts would you say were inaccurate ?
Which parts of the seeded article? To me and from my viewpoint all of it was perfectly accurate and right on. I stand behind every word of it as if they were my own.
Haven't seen anything from the American Stinker in a while. Shouldn't this be posted as opinion? Not a fact to be found in this pile of . . . . . . . . .
It should be in the opinion section and I thought it was. I’ll move it there if it ended up some where else. Well I check and it is in op-ed where I thought I’d seeded it.
My mistake. Oh well.
I accept your apology.
You never got one.
It Would have been the civil thing to do, thus the comments we each made.
I find the noose offensive. What is this now? The Noose Talkers? Smollett made a dumb career ending grevious criminal mistake but it was not a capital offense. Such an intimation of lynching Smallett is just racist hatred incarnate...
You realize that Smollett used a noose in his staged “hate crime” and that it played a big role in his attempt to frame White pro Trump voters in it? The noose in the picture related to the seeded article would not have been there if not for Smollett and what Michelle Malkin referred to regarding the story as “fake noose” perhaps I should have seeded her creators syndicate article instead of this one that was at Real Clear Politics...
I am aware the pic noose is not on the original article so you added it...
We can only assume you made the decision to add the noose to offend.
Malkin is a bomb thrower. She plainly just intends on offending, too...
Please tell the truth. The picture most certainly IS at the top of the seeded article above the headline. Anyone pressing the seeded content label above can see it for themselves.
Malkin is a great Asian American female writer and a fine contributor to Creators Syndicate which carries liberal, libertarian, and conservative content.
I hope he receives the hate crime charges he earned.
No, it is not and I have checked on several platforms. (Chrome, Firefox, etc.) The gallows picture is not associated with the American Thinker article as far as I can see.
But since there is no picture associated with the article and the noose is relevant, I have no issue with it, regardless of how distasteful some find it.
From the perspective of the left, we are an illegitimate country.
'
"too legit to quit"
A country's parent countries, can be illegitimate, but on fall, and off spring, are always legitimate.
To the right, a few instances of hoax hate crime are more important than thousands of incidents of real hate crime.
sorta like babblin on about this deuche
as
opposed to Coast Guard Cutter em all down.... ?
One of the funnier parts of this farce is the leftwing media professing puzzlement as to how Smollett could do this.
you'd think the fact that the same media treated him as a bigger hero than Sargent York, would make the answer obvious, but apparently not.
Name one thing that trmp has done to improve the lives of women and minorities
Pretty much everything he's done.
Although it's telling you think his job is to improve the lives of specific groups, not Americans. Was he running to be President of Minorities?
The only Americans whose lives he's improved are rich ones!
And he hasn't done one fucking thing for me. I didn't get a tax cut AT ALL!!!!!!!!!!!
Then you are rich, or at least very well off.
90 some percent of Americans saw their taxes go down under trump.
what the fuck are you talking about?
I got maybe 30 bucks every two weeks extra in my paycheck but we got 2000 less in our refund.
I'll say it louder this time because you didn't hear me the last time
THE RICH GOT THE TAX CUTS! NOT THE ORDINARY WORKING AMERICANS!
got maybe 30 bucks every two weeks extra in my paycheck but we got 2000 less in our refund.
. Unless you are very well off with a large property, you paid less in taxes in 2018 then you did in 2017.
That's not the point
Nonsense, tax season isn't even over yet.
Maybe you can provide a link after April 15th ?
The tax tables have been known since the bill passed. What the hell does April 15th have to do with anything?
I think the issue is that a lot of people are finding that they owe taxes this year when they didn't expect to, and that is expected to continue for the people who haven't yet filed. They may be paying a lower effective rate, but if they didn't analyze what the changes in the tax code meant and adjust their withholding, they had too little withheld and ended up owing. Especially with the removal of the personal exception and several other writeoffs.
By my calculations I lost $1280. Pretty sure a tax cut would have meant I would have seen more money
Exactly. I’m in the borderline between working and middle class and I got both more in my bi weekly paychecks and a bigger refund at the end of the year. At the personal income level the rich often paid more because the nation wide cap on mortgage interest deduction at 750k and the nationwide cap on deductions for state and local taxes at 10k very often more than offset the cut in their top tax rate from 39.6% to 37%.
I get Americans sadly equate the size of their refunds with their actual tax burden, but the overwhelming majority owed less in taxes to the feds in 2018 then they otherwise would have without the tax cut.
the only exception are high earners in high tax states that own expensive houses but don’t make quite enough offset the lost tax deductions with the savings from the lowered brackets. That’s about 5% of American taxpayers.
But the standard deduction and per child tax credit each doubled. This is the first year I’m not itemizing since 1996 when I bought my house, and I came out ahead of last year and of itemizing state and local taxes, mortgage interest, and charitable contributions this year.
Not that it's anybody's fucking business but it's a little "savings account" that we use for an annual trip. Yes, I know I get no interest on it, but in the past we knew we would have X amount of money for our annual bowling trip. Now we can't count on that
It's none of your business
Witholding is the greatest invention the tax man ever came up with. People don't pay attention to how much of their money the government takes from them because they never see it. Then they are happy when the government gives them back some of their own money because the government took too much from them and earned interest off it.
Imagine if everyone had to write a check to the government every month for the amount they owed. People would care alot more about much they paid if they saw it come out of their bank accounts.
Same as millions and millions of other people.
I do my best friends taxes every year and she was given the option of keeping her withholding the same rate or as close to the previous rate as possible,
so her salary / take home pay was constant.
I am nearly done her 2018 taxes and her normal refund is down $1600.00
Home mortgage interest, charitable deductions and medical expenses did not increase the refund one bit.
If this law holds up, itemizing will be a thing of the past for most people.
And for those who enjoy a refund, we will have to adjust our withholding to accomplish that.
I prefer getting back around $1000. It's strictly a psychological thing ... and with interest rates so low, I figure I'm giving the IRS what, five bucks?
If interest rates rise, though, I will change my withholding.
I don't have kids and my house is paid off, and my state and property taxes are low, so I haven't itemized in several years. So for me, the doubling of the standard deduction helped and more than made up for the loss of the personal exemption. I wasn't actually using the writeoffs that got taken away since I don't itemize.
I think each withholding Federal, State, and local should be itemized on our paychecks on how the government spends it....lol. That would be a real shocker for most to see.
Just like a property tax bill....good grief I think I have about 20 line items on my property tax bill. Don't even know wtf most of it is for.
You should see the paperwork my Mom gets for our oil well (a grasshopper on the farm that was Grandpa's). She gets maybe $100 a year and it includes 7 pages of one cent here, 3 cents there ... it's ridiculous.
Can you imagine how many pages the tax itemization would be!
You are the one that brought up how much less you are getting. By doing so, you made it our business.
Then don't bring it up?
You made it our business by posting here about it and on this issue he’s exactly right.
Completely untrue.
no,
you didn't see 90% of Americans,
you saw that dude who Putin Trump to begin with....a little premature, no ?
We did in fact see tax cuts for the vast majority of Americans this year. That some due to withholding changes got more up front in their regular paychecks and get a smaller or no refund now does not mean that they didn’t get their tax Bill lowered. I tried to split the difference between having some more money each payday and getting a refund. I’m going to adjust some more now that I’ve experienced a year of it so that I’ll get almost all of it up front and maybe a couple hundred as a refund.
My 1099 for my WellsTrade taxable brokerage account was 22 pages long and cap gains and dividends are not in the itemized section. All that to explain a cover sheet that had all the numbers needed to file. I’m grateful that the Bush and Clinton cap gains and dividends tax cuts are in effect. And they say only the rich benefit from those. I did at the end of December sell and reinvest in something unrelated some holdings in my Stash and Stash custodial investment accounts in order to lock in a slight loss to partially offset the WellsTrade gains. Still looking forward to my last big refund under these rules as I’m changing my with holding.
LMFAO So the government taking your money is a savings acct? [ Deleted ]
Gee, thank god I don't have to rely on the government to regulate my money so I can save up.
Hey I did a quick search on Google and they have amazing free news to help save money so you don't have to rely on the government.
They also have a array of books too....
I thought you all weren't supposed to gang up on other posters.
How mature
Women and minorities are at or near their lowest unemployment rates ever. Wages are increasing. They have proposed a paid family leave act and tried to extend the violence against women act but democrats in congress blocked it.
Oh, brother......
I'm not even gonna dignify your first sentences with an answer because I don't respond to tripe
The VAWA expired because of the government shut down. Who was responsible for that?
from the link I posted earlier:
So your democrats put stopping funding for the wall above resuming the violence against women act. Got it.
You know better than that so don't fucking lie.
Your POTUS said he would take the credit for the shut down all of you were happy as clams that he did.
I will not allow you to lie about this
Yeah. You're not in charge. The Dems shut down the government rather than secure the border. Period.
Coc for name calling noted. The fact is that the senate included renewing it in their bill based on the President’s compromise offer and the democrats voted it down. That’s a true fact.

Trump Told me
Note that I didn't get a ticket because you lied again!
want a couple of mine...
honest,
i'm not lying.
Only I can be called a liar as a member here with impunity over a difference of opinion.
I didn't call you a liar...I said you were lying
There is no difference. To say that I am lying is no different than to say that I am a liar and it’s not true. Saying something that you don’t agree with does not meet the definition of a lie.
Simple enough to deal with, when one gets busted lying make a folder and place it in there.
When one gets busted enough (you'll know because the discussion will get abandoned as has happend frequently) you can whip out a pile of the busts....once proven there's not much defense.

Yeah. I can't generate sympathy for that level of stupid.

I’m not a big Trevor Noah fan, but he really nailed this:
Bravo Sir!!
So in the event he’s found guilty of all that he’s been charged with, what should be his legal penalty?
Whatever the actual charges are...then enhanced because in actuality he commited a hate crime. So, whatever is the standard sentence is plus added time for it being a hate crime reported.
My guess is that he won’t see the inside of a prison cell for his crimes.
