“Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclination, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” —John Adams (1770)

I always check my socialist Democrat Party email inbox to see which of its surrogates are fomenting hate and division today.

This week that included a donor appeal from the so-called Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) — that cadre of consummate leftist hate-hustlers with an outfit that has little connection to the South, poverty, or the law. What followed was predictable.

After last year’s analysis of the 2021 FBI summary of hate crimes did not show sufficient increases to help with fundraising, the SPLC lamented, “The latest numbers fail to capture the scope of the problem even more miserably than in previous years.” It added that “very little reliable data can be found on the full range of hate crimes against people — based on their race/ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, disability, gender and gender identity.” You know, the ever-expanding SCOTUS list of protected civil rights categories that can expand hate crime categories needed to keep the big bucks flowing.

But this year, apparently the FBI managed to get the hate crime stats back into fundraising territory for the hate hoax hucksters.

The result is apparently “disturbing” and prompted the SPLC to proclaim October “Hate Crimes Awareness Month” and declare, “We promise to continue our groundbreaking work to prevent hate and extremist violence.” (This, by the way, despite the fact that SPLC employees have lodged charges that the SPLC itself is racist.) All above the red “DONATE” button.

Other hate-hustlers were quick to jump on, including the Human Rights Campaign, which declared, “Anti-LGBTQ+ hate crimes hit staggering record highs.” Biden had already buttered their bread by repeating the lying “homophobia” narrative about the murder of Matthew Shepard. In fact, the “Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2009” was based, in part, on the false Shepard murder narrative.

Biden had also just tossed the SPLC a pandering bone by recognizing the birthday of drug thug George Floyd. As you recall, Biden used Floyd’s death to persecute police officer Derek Chauvin for murder. And Floyd became the primary fodder Biden’s big “systemic racism” lie and the subsequent riots ahead of the 2020 election.

For the record, the unavoidable conclusion regarding the conviction of Chauvin is that it was politically motivated to appease the social justice mob. (A well-researched argument by former federal prosecutor TJ Harker, that Chauvin’s conviction was unjust, is posted in two parts here and here.)

The SPLC tossed a bone back, pleading, “Please make a special gift today to ensure the SPLC can continue to fight for those harmed by hate, violence and white supremacy.”

Ah, yes, singing Joe Biden’s oft-sung tune about the rampant “white supremacy” bogeymen, who are, apparently, responsible for all “those harmed by hate and violence.”

So, you may ask, “Who cares about the SPLC?” Well, because the socialist Big Tech oligarchs are using the SPLC as an arbiter of what constitutes “hate speech” in order to justify their unmitigated suppression of free (conservative) speech, everyone interested in American Liberty had better care.

Thus, it followed that amid Biden’s ramblings on the expanding Israeli crisis, he could not resist trotting out some references to haters in his remarks from the Oval Office.

That speech was, ostensibly, about the latest of his national security debacles — the invasion of Israel by Iranian-backed terror surrogate Hamas, an invasion enabled by Biden’s appeasement of Iran. That is Biden’s third deadly national security failure, following his disastrous surrender and retreat from Afghanistan, and, as a consequence, the resurrection of al-Qa'ida. That was followed by the bloody and totally predictable invasion of Ukraine by Vladimir Putin, also empowered by Biden’s incompetence.

Sidebar: In his remarks Biden declared: “Most importantly, our adversaries and competitors are watching [our response in Israel]. They’re watching our response in Ukraine as well.” Up next, having watched all of the above, the ChiComs will come across the Taiwan Strait and, among other things, then control the world’s largest production of semiconductors and microchips found in everything Americans take for granted.

Back on point…

Smack in the middle of his bumbling remarks, Biden, who looks more like his family’s ChiCom benefactors every day, trotted out this dire warning: “You know, and here at home, we have to be honest with ourselves. In recent years, too much hate has been given too much oxygen, fueling racism, a rise in antisemitism and Islamicphobia [sic] right here in America.”

He added: “You know, I know many of you in the Muslim American community or the Arab American community, the Palestinian American community, and so many others are outraged and hurting, saying to yourselves, ‘Here we go again,’ with Islamophobia and distrust we saw after 9/11. We can’t stand by and stand silent when this happens. We must, without equivocation, denounce anti-Semitism.” And then equivocating he declared, “We must also, without equivocation, denounce Islamophobia.”

Biden then insisted that we must “remember who we are.” Of course, he rarely remembers who he is.

It is not clear what his fake “Islamicphobia” narrative has to do with Hamas/Palestinian terrorists raping and murdering Israeli women and children, and decapitating babies. But it all dovetailed nicely with the fundraising activities of his leftist hate-hustling constituencies.

It is clear that the highest-profile anti-Semites in America are the Demo House Jew-hating Islamists, Reps. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) and Ilhan Omar (D-MN). That helps explain a surge in attacks against American Jews and the growing anti-Semitic sentiments on university campuses. Big Tech is giving those haters a pass, but prospective employers are not.

I can assure you that the incidence of hate threats and violence agains Jewish victims will rise, and despite Biden’s rhetoric, the perpetrators will primarily be leftists.

So, what about the spin on the most recent FBI report on murder and mayhem in 2022, and all those haters? Despite the dramatic fundraising appeals, actually, as Nate Jackson detailed: “The FBI says that ‘national violent crime decreased an estimated 1.7% in 2022 compared to 2021 estimates.’ That’s great news, right? Maybe.”

Unfortunately, though Biden was quick to claim credit for the reduction, the violent crime rates are still far above the levels in 2019, prior to the ChiCom Virus pandemic. Of course, Biden and his minions have all blamed that on “gun violence” rather than the record surge of violence he and his Demos provoked and promoted. I am referring to the mass lawlessness that started with the “Summer of Rage,” featuring their so-called “Black Lives Matter” thugs and grifters, and their fascist “antifa” constituents.

Oh, and don’t be concerned about the murder of that synagogue board president in Detroit. We are assured by The New York Times and CNN, who were quick to blame Israel for that Hamas hospital bombing, that there is “no evidence of a hate crime.” I suspect that Reps. Tlaib and Omar, who also propagated the lie that Israel targeted and bombed that Gaza hospital and killed “500 Palestinians,” would concur.

Apparently, that was just a regular murder, unless you consider that all murders are hate crimes — as do I. That victim simply did not fit into one of the special classes of people useful for fomenting division.

So now, Biden and company are using hyped hate crime chatter as a distraction from the real violent crime epidemic, while taking credit for a slight downtick in “gun violence.”

For the record, amid all the rhetoric, according to the FBI definition for “hate crime,” these incidents rarely involve murder. They can include physical altercations, verbal threats or property damage targeting “an individual, a business/financial institution, a government entity, a religious organization, or society/public as a whole.”

Despite Biden’s hate dog whistle, what Demos and their Leftmedia publicists do not want you to focus on, as I have thoroughly documented before, is the inconvenient truth about race and violence. The reality is, if they actually believed “black lives matter,” they would not continue to propagate failed urban policies that proliferate the black-on-black culture of violence, which accounts for a grossly disproportionate amount of violent crime nationwide.

The racial disparity associated with violent crime victims and perpetrators has not changed.

In 2019, there were 8,438 black victims of homicide, the vast majority of them black-on-black. In 2022, there were 11,565 black victims of homicide, the vast majority also black-on-black. You can do the math and see the trend.

And about that hate crime data, of the 10,299 known offenders in the latest report, notably while black people are 12.4% of the population, 21.0% of offenders were black – again, an alarmingly disproportionate percentage that Biden will not mention. Meanwhile, the number of white offenders was 20% lower than the white population.

Despite the much-heralded slight decrease in violence, incomplete data notwithstanding, that is the trend we should all be talking about.

Finally, regarding the uptick in “hate crimes,” there is no FBI report on the number of murders and other violent crimes committed by the illegal immigrants Biden has invited across our southern border.

Footnote: Biden would also like to avoid discussion of surging crime in his D.C. neighborhood, which even has Demo Mayor Muriel Bowser backtracking on her “progressive reforms,” as citizens in crime-infested cities nationwide blame Biden and Democrats. Some Demos have attempted to deflect blame to “Red States,” but violent crime is overwhelmingly associated with urban centers under Democrat control regardless of who that state supported in 2020.
