BLM Activist Bostonian of the Year Stole Nearly $225,000

Posted on by

A certain moral character could be expected of a Black Lives Matter militant placed upon a pedestal by the liberal establishment media in moonbattery-addled Boston. Monica Cannon-Grant offers no surprises.

Via National Review:

Monica Cannon-Grant, a Black Lives Matter activist who was named “Bostonian of the Year” by the Boston Globe, was ordered to pay back every dime she stole from her nonprofit, unemployment benefits, and other fraudulent practices, amounting to almost $225,000.

Don’t worry, libs. She received only the mildest of wrist slaps from a Biden-appointed Woman of Color judge:

U.S. District Court Judge Angel Kelley sentenced Cannon-Grant to four years’ probation, six months of home detention, and 100 hours of community service.

Here’s why federal prosecutors had recommended 18 months behind bars:

Cannon-Grant pleaded guilty in September to 18 counts, including three counts of wire fraud conspiracy, ten counts of wire fraud, one count of mail fraud, two counts of filing false tax returns, and two counts of failing to file tax returns.

In addition to the usual racial reasons, this may help explain the exceedingly light sentence:

Cannon-Grant founded Violence in Boston Inc. in 2017, coordinated massive protests and marches following the death of George Floyd, and facilitated other progressive social campaigns.

Bleeding heart liberal do-gooders motivated by the Black Lives Matter riots to donate to Cannon-Grant have no cause to complain. They paid for the self-satisfaction of having confirmed their righteous devotion to moonbattery. This they duly received. However, taxpayers were also looted:

“Cannon-Grant not only stole from her own non-profit organization but did so at the expense of multiple public financial programs designed to help those truly in need,” Thomas Demeo, special agent in charge of the Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation at the Boston Field Office, said in a press release in January.

As could have been predicted, considering that from the beginning the purpose of Black Lives Matter has been to empower racially correct criminals versus law enforcement,

Cannon-Grant is one of several well-known BLM activists who defrauded the various social justice organizations they were responsible for leading, prompting the Department of Justice to launch an investigation into the movement, searching for potential donor fraud, following reports of mismanagement of funds.

Investigators had better hurry. Once Democrats regain power, BLM corruption will be swept under the rug by Tim Walz/Keith Ellison types, as with the massive Somali welfare fraud in Minnesota.

Accused Black Lives Matter Grifter Lived Large

Posted on by

When sanctimonious moonbat fools threw fistfuls of money at Black Lives Matter, they were throwing it at this — via National Review:

Oklahoma City Black Lives Matter Executive Director Tashella Sheri Amore Dickerson has been charged with 20 counts of wire fraud and five counts of money laundering after allegedly spending millions in donations on personal indulgences.

BLM BS brought in big money:

Dickerson took over as the director of Black Lives Matter OKC (BLMOCK) in 2016 and since 2020 has raised more than $5.6 million for what donors believed was a national bail fund.

Imagining donating money to bail black criminals out of jail so they can continue to riot and loot, only to have it embezzled — by a black criminal. Who would have seen that coming?

The bail fund was also supplemented by grants through the Community Justice Exchange, Massachusetts Bail Fund, and Minnesota Freedom Fund.

If Minnesota Freedom Fund sounds familiar, that could be because Kamala Harris raised money for this conspicuously pernicious pro-criminal operation while running for VP. It has bailed out the murderer of an 11-year-old and criminals accused of assaulting an 8-year-old girl and a 71-year-old woman. As would be expected, the rioters it freed went on to commit further crimes.

Getting back to Tashella:

Dickerson allegedly embezzled the funds to pay for personal shopping sprees, $50,000 in food and grocery delivery, trips to Jamaica and the Dominican Republic, as well as a personal vehicle and six Oklahoma City properties registered in her name.

Racial justice beats working for a living.

She may not know to keep her finger off the trigger while posing ominously with firearms, but she does know how to bark liberal rhetoric for fun and profit:

Brandon Johnson Lays Out Ideological Basis of Chicago Crime

Posted on by

Crime in the Democrat stronghold Chicago is out of control. Residents cannot even hold a Christmas tree lighting ceremony without people getting killed:

A 14-year-old boy shot and killed Friday night in the Loop, just hours after the city’s annual Christmas tree lighting downtown, is being remembered as a funny, basketball-loving teen with a bright future.

The deadly shooting, which also wounded an 18-year-old man, was the second of two shooting incidents in the Loop less than an hour apart late Friday night. Hundreds of young people had gathered downtown to participate in a so-called “teen takeover” that was advertised on social media, adding to the thousands already downtown for the Christmas tree lighting.

In total, nine young people were shot in the separate incidents.

The source of the crime is cultural; the welfare state has been used breed a population of sociopathic savages. The reason the crime is allow to flourish is ideological. Black Lives Matter Mayor Brandon Johnson lays it out:

To quote:

“We cannot incarcerate our way out of violence.”

Why not? Because:

“It is racist.”

That is liberals’ BLM ideology in a nutshell. Enforcing the law is racist, so criminals must be allowed to run amok terrorizing the law-abiding. If you don’t like it, you are a racist and will be dealt with appropriately as soon as Democrats have the political leverage. That’s when they will have a use for the police.

Venezuela Regime Funded Black Lives Matter

Posted on by

Democrats enraged over airstrikes against narcoterrorists on their way from Venezuela should be reminded that the country’s rogue Marxist regime is effectively at war with the USA. Not only does it dispatch drug runners to invade and poison us, it funds violent internal enemies — namely Black Lives Matter:

It all began in late 2012, when Hugo Chávez, the eternal father of 21st-century socialism, ordered the delivery of at least $20 million in suitcases filled with cash to Opal Tometi, one of the three co-founders of BLM alongside Patrisse Cullors and Alicia Garza.

According to a former high-ranking Venezuelan official who defected and witnessed the meeting, the purpose was to «project the Bolivarian revolutionary project onto the streets of the United States,» meaning to sow chaos and division to erode American democracy from within.

George Soros isn’t the only enemy of America who spends to this purpose.

In 2006, Chávez had already called from the World Social Forum in Caracas for the creation of a «fifth column» of the left in the U.S. to sabotage its policies. BLM fit the role perfectly. …

This alliance is no coincidence but part of a hemispheric Marxist network orchestrated by the São Paulo Forum, promoted by Venezuela. BLM participated in its meetings, strengthening ties with dictatorships that oppress their own peoples, including millions of Venezuelan Afro-descendants massacred by Chavista repression.

Not all black lives matter. Antiracism Racism is only a means to an end — namely, the destruction of America so that it can be replaced with something along the lines of Venezuela.

While BLM raises millions in corporate donations—$90 million alone in 2020—its leaders buy luxury mansions and divert funds to family consultancies, leaving local chapters and victims of police violence with scraps.

They are commies, all right. Members of the inner circle always live large.

In summary, the $20 million delivered to Tometi was not philanthropy but an investment in chaos: violent protests, burning businesses, and the erosion of law. Venezuela, which exports hunger and repression, imported its poison to the U.S. via BLM.

A Solzhenitsyn quote comes to mind:

Evil people always support each other; that is their chief strength. - Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

Black Lives Matter Response to Iryna Zarutska’s Murder

Posted on by

Self-anointed enemies of “fascism” aren’t the only ones who feel entitled to inflict violence on the innocent. Self-anointed victims of oppression do too:

Civil rights now include the right to murder, which is comparable to the right to urinate.

Violence is fundamental to Black Lives Matter, Antifa, and communism. It is fundamental to leftism in general.

Author of “Hands Up, Don’t Shoot” Lie Killed

Posted on by

The Michael Brown hate hoax set the stage for the devastating Black Lives Matter phenomenon to follow. It was fabricated after the sociopath Brown, fresh from a strongarm robbery, attacked a police officer and tried to take his gun. The disproven lie that he was executed for no particular reason set off race riots and created the Ferguson Effect, whereby police feel they have no choice but to sit back and allow crime to spiral out of control.

The lie that the young maniac Brown was shot while raising his hands in surrender was told by his friend Dorian Johnson — who was just killed by the violence he helped facilitate:

Johnson, 33, was the victim of a shooting at about 8:30 a.m. Sunday at a block of apartments less than a mile from where Brown died…

No need for more riots, homies. Despite early rumors, Johnson was not shot by police.

One person was taken into custody but was released with no criminal charges filed, according to Melissa Price Smith, St. Louis County prosecuting attorney.

“This appears to be a domestic incident involving a claim of self-defense,” Price Smith said in a statement, adding the case remains under investigation and her office remains in ongoing consultation with Ferguson police about possible future criminal charges.

Sometimes there is justice, even in this fallen world.

Florida Crosswalk Chaos

Posted on by

Not long ago, people were hunted down and punished severely for leaving tire tracks on crosswalks painted to promote politicized sexual depravity. Now that Americans have begun to reclaim our streets, it is moonbats accused of vandalizing them.

From Orlando:

Traffic signs now warn people on the sidewalk next to the Pulse memorial crosswalk on Orange Avenue and Esther Street that defacing the roadway is prohibited.

This comes after the Florida Department of Transportation [FDOT] has repeatedly painted over the crosswalk to its traditional black and white stripes since the controversy started on Aug. 20.

Day after day, residents and advocates for the LGBTQ+ community have colored in the lines of the crosswalk with either chalk or paint, returning the surface to its former rainbow colors.

Local authorities have been ordered to remove the obnoxious rainbow crosswalks and other distracting in-your-face left-wing eyesores to comply with state and federal law.

Elsewhere in Florida:

Two pastors were arrested after police said they tried to block FDOT crews from painting over the “Black History Matters” street mural in St. Petersburg. …

Andrew Oliver, 45, and Benedict Atherton-Zeman, 59, walked by police officers and sat down in the road, on top of the mural. Officers said they were trying to block FDOT machinery.

They forced the police to arrest them by refusing to move, no doubt proving to their own satisfaction that cops are the bad guys.

Once they have gained ground at the expense of the rest of us, moonbats don’t like to relinquish it. However, people will inevitably cough up the moonbattery that has been crammed down their throats.
