Taxpayer Money funding Anti-ICE activism

Minnesota Taxpayers Are Funding This War Activists Are Waging Against ICE

Minnesota turned into a war zone between ICE and leftist activists

Your tax dollars are paying for it.

And Minnesota taxpayers are funding this war activists are waging against ICE.

The Legal Rights Center collects nearly $5.7 million in government grants every few years. Taxpayer money — federal, state, and local.

The center uses that cash to fund the People's Bail Fund of Minnesota through its Know Your Rights MN project.The fund launched this summer with one mission: keep anti-ICE activists cycling through arrests and back onto the streets.
  • Activist gets arrested blocking ICE.
  • Bail fund posts bail using taxpayer money.
  • Activist shows up to court, bail money returns.
  • Same money springs the next criminal.

His only "crime"-- supporting Trump

Former Black Voices For Trump Director Still In Jail As Co-Defendants Post Bond

Harrison Floyd, the lone co-defendant in former President Donald Trump’s election interference case in Georgia who is still in custody, was denied bond by a Ga. state judge on Friday, keeping the Black Voices for Trump leader at the Fulton County Jail despite his pleas for release.

He has no money for this crap or even money to hire a lawyer. And these Democrat prosecutors rely on that to turn these defendants against Trump.

Floyd, a former Trump campaign employee during his 2020 campaign, had previously been charged in May with assault for attacking an FBI agent who served him a subpoena in the Department of Justice’s investigation into efforts to overturn Trump’s loss in the 2020 election. He wanted them to identify themselves which they did not other than one opening his jacket to show his gun.

Harrison William Prescott Floyd surrendered to authorities at the Atlanta detention center Thursday. Floyd was previously charged with assaulting federal agents and was the only defendant who didn't negotiate his bail before turning himself into the Fulton County Sheriff's Office.

Fulton County Superior Court Judge Emily Richardson deemed Floyd a flight risk and more likely to commit additional felonies if released on bail. She noted that his bond would be addressed by Judge Scott McAfee, whom Floyd had been previously assigned to.

We all know that Harrison’s real crime was supporting Trump. And they are coming after you!

Silicon Valley Bank gets Biden Bailout

‘Woke’ Bank Getting Biden ‘Bailout’ Was a Massive Contributor to Black Lives Matter

Silicon Valley Bank, the Woke bank that went belly up, only to be seized and shuttered by the Feds, was a major donor to the discredited activist group “Black Lives Matter.”

A new report suggests one potential reason for the Biden administration’s pivot from its early adamant position that no “bailouts” were forthcoming: Silicon Valley Bank is a bigtime contributor to leftwing activism.

According to the Claremont Institute, records show that Silicon Valley Bank had pledged approximately $74 million to “Black Lives Matter” and associated groups.

Will Hild, the executive director of Consumers’ Research, told The Federalist that SVB’s failure “is yet another indication that SVB was focused on woke virtue signaling instead of protecting their customers’ deposits.”

The Bribe? Money to the Mob

Biden Caught Funneling Money to the Mob

There arguably has never been a presidential administration as corrupt as the Biden regime. I used to think that the Obama administration had problems, but my word, the Biden regime beats all I’ve ever seen.

We’ve never seen the level of crime involvement, gaslighting, and misappropriation of taxpayer dollars than we’ve seen from the Big Guy. And now matters just got worse because we now see that he’s been funneling money to the mob.

In recent months, the US government has handed out billions of dollars in taxpayer money with seemingly no end. One particular instance came in December 2020, when a $36 billion bailout package was given to the Teamsters Union for their mismanaged pension fund.

Insanity Abounds! Biden wants to Eiminate Cash Bail

Biden releases ‘gender equity’ plan that calls for eliminating cash bail

Fox News reports: President Biden’s plan to promote gender equity includes a proposal to eliminate cash bail for suspects, despite a rise in violent crime across the country. “We are also committed to increasing federal oversight and accountability for police departments and prosecutors’ offices to address systemic misconduct, including gender bias and sexual misconduct,” reads part of a 42-page White House report entitled the National Strategy on Gender Equity and Equality.

“And we will work to end cash bail and reform our pretrial system, recognizing the harm these processes cause, particularly for Black women and families.”

Who is really running this funny farm? Do they have anything to talk about other than a false narrative of racial discrimination, you know, the racism that Omari Hardy promotes every day to divide our country?

Multi-Billionaire Jeff Bezos might get Bailed Out

Democrats Try to Give $10 Billion Bailout to Jeff Bezos for Failed Space Flight Company

"Jeff Bezos is one of the richest men in the world, but Democrats are trying to give him $10 billion of our tax dollars to bail him out for his losses from his failed space flight company.

Bezos created his Blue Origin company but the whole thing fell apart for him when a multibillion-dollar NASA contract went to SpaceX instead of his company.

Now the Democrats want to help bailout the world’s richest man… with our tax dollars.

Sen. Rand Paul exclaimed, “cry me a river” over Bezo’s loss."

The irony that is not lost is that Bernie Sanders, a socialist, submitted an amendment to which I agree--“To eliminate the multi-billion dollar Bezos Bailout.” Bezos is a capitalist and capitalism is taking the calculated risk, a fundamental precept of capitalism.

A procedural vote Thursday, after some last-minute deal-making, advanced that bill by a vote of 68-30 — a veritable landslide in the 50-50 split body.

Mayor of Minneapolis wants Trump to bail him out

Minneapolis Mayor Asks Trump For Aid After Riots Cause At Least $55 Million In Damage

'The Minneapolis mayor is asking for federal help cleaning up and rebuilding his city after rioters caused at least $55 million plus worth of damage through looting, burning, and defacing public and private property."

President Trump called him "weak" and he responded, "Donald Trump knows nothing about the strength of Minneapolis. We are strong as hell."

Yeah, your strength is a figment of your imagination. Poor leadership is what we would call it. Now, on top of asking for the federal government to give him $$$$ after he allowed his city to be decimated, he wants to revamp the Minneapolis Police Department because of the George Floyd untimely death.

The Bail Project - A Radical Move

Nonprofit Pays Bail For Man Who Attacked His Wife, Hours Later He Murders Her

"St. Louis, MO – Just hours after a nonprofit group posted bail for a man accused of assaulting his wife, the suspect went to the woman’s home and brutally murdered her, according to prosecutors."

This is what you get when bleeding heart liberals want to protect the criminals and when they believe that there is discrimination and racism in the bail process. They want to help these poor criminals and get them home to their families.

The Bail Project says “We believe that paying bail for someone in need is an act of resistance against a system that criminalizes race and poverty and an act of solidarity with local communities and movements for decarceration,” the page read. “Bail is not necessary to ensure people return to court. We won’t stop until meaningful change is achieved and the presumption of innocence is no longer for sale.”

Chase Imposes capital controls on small businesses

Comment Up
Per infowars, Chase Bank confirmed to Infowars that all business account holders were being subjected to these new regulations. They indicated that customers would have to pay a fee on every dollar withdrawn over the limit. Given that even a relatively small grocery store or restaurant is likely to turnover more than $50k a month in cash payments, this appears to be part of a wider move to shut down businesses who mainly deal in cash. Chase told Infowars that customers would have to upgrade to much more expensive accounts to avoid the capital controls, meaning larger corporations will not be affected.

The bottom line is that banks think your money is their money and will do everything in their power to prevent you from withdrawing it in large quantities. Chase Bank has moved to limit cash withdrawals while banning business customers from sending international wire transfers from November 17 onwards, prompting speculation that the bank is preparing for a looming financial crisis in the United States by imposing capital controls.

I got my letter in the mail yesterday. So, what's really going on? Should we be using the "under the mattress" approach for saving our money?

The Treasury Department has invested about $200 billion in hundreds of banks through its Capital Purchase Program in an effort to prop up capital and support new lending. Didn't the U.S. taxpayers bail out JPMorgan/Chase at the tune of $25,000,000,000?

China's buying up the world

Comment Up

Another failed Obama bailout--Does anyone in the 51% ever get ticked off at this?

Our own National Intelligence Council predicts that the United States will lose its superpower status by 2030, but that no country -- including China -- will be a hegemonic power. Instead, the report says, power will shift to "networks and coalitions in a multipolar world."  It doesn't appear that way when you read about China's latest acquisition.

The United States Federal Reserve Bank on September 16, 2008 created an $85 billion credit facility to enable the company to meet increased collateral obligations consequent to the credit rating downgrade, in exchange for the issuance of a stock warrant to the Federal Reserve Bank for 79.9% of the equity of AIG. In March 2009, AIG announced that they were paying $165 million in executive bonuses. Total bonuses for the financial unit could reach $450 million and bonuses for the entire company could reach $1.2 billion.

American International Group Inc (AIG.N) will sell nearly all of its aircraft leasing business ILFC (ILFC.N) to a Chinese consortium for up to $4.8 billion, in a deal that gives the fastest growing aviation market easier and cheaper access to planes.

But the sale is at a far cheaper price than AIG sought and will lead to a substantial loss, the insurer's price for getting out of its last major non-core asset following the U.S. government bailout of the company in the financial crisis.

General Motors pushing Obama

The Treasury Department is resisting General Motors' push for the government to sell off its stake in the automobile maker, The Wall Street Journal reports. Following a $50 billion bailout in 2009, the U.S. taxpayers now own almost 27% of the company. But the newspaper said GM executives are now chafing at that, saying it hurts the company's reputation and its ability to attract top talent due to pay restrictions.

Earlier this year, GM presented a plan to repurchase 200 million of the 500 million shares the U.S. holds with the balance being sold via a public offering. But officials at the Treasury Department were not interested, as selling now would lead to a multibillion-dollar loss for the government, the newspaper noted.
