President Joe Biden’s nominee to lead the Justice Department’s civil rights division boosted the now-debunked claim that actor Jussie Smollett was the victim of an anti-gay, anti-black hate crime, saying on Twitter in January 2019 that the actor was attacked by two white men.

Kristen Clarke, the nominee to lead the Justice Department’s civil rights division, fell for the false claims made by actor Jussie Smollett that he was the victim of an anti-black and anti-gay hate crime in 2019.

Clarke also accused the Chicago police department of “demonizing survivors” after investigators requested access to Smollett’s cell phone.

“Jussie Smollett was subjected to a racist and homophobic attack,” Clarke wrote on Twitter.
Smollett was later charged with multiple felonies for making the false hate crime report.

If confirmed, Clarke will oversee the U.S. government office that handles hate crime investigations. Clarke, who is president of the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, previously served as prosecutor in the criminal section of the civil rights division, where she handled police misconduct, police brutality, hate crimes and human trafficking cases.



“Jussie Smollett was subjected to a racist and homophobic attack,” Clarke tweeted on Jan. 29, 2019.

“2 white men wearing ski masks attacked him, put a rope around his neck, and poured bleach on him and as they yelled slurs.”

“Prayers to @JussieSmollett for a speedy recovery from this hate crime.”

Smollett, a gay black man, had claimed that two white men wearing pro-Trump hats attacked him near his home in Chicago while shouting “this is MAGA country.”

The now-former “Empire” actor said that the attackers hurled anti-gay and anti-black slurs at him and wrapped a noose around his neck

Wow!
Talk about “believe all women!”
Jussie must be of the feminine side of the gay spectrum the way Ms Clarke swallows everything he said.

But, the web has no links to ties between Ms Clarke and Kamala Harris.
It was Kamala Harris who already had her “anti-lynching” bill ready to go when Jussie presented her with his story of a white supremacist attackers.

It was Jussie with Kamala together before the attack, too.

Clarke argued in the Harvard student newspaper that blacks had greater “mental, physical and spiritual abilities” than whites because of the amount of melanin in their skin, a racist theory advocated by race-baiters like Louis Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam. This same “theory” got Nick Cannon kicked out of his role as host of his show, The Masked Singer, too.
At least the TV media recognizes racism when they see it.
Not so Dems at the top of the Dem food chain.

Just what the DOJ needs; another racist zealot that believes everything that happens everywhere is a racial assault on blacks. THAT’S the way to make sure justice is equally served and reduce racial tensions.

reminds me of cher 1971:

I was born in the wagon of a travellin’ show
My mama used to dance for the money they’d throw
Papa would do whatever he could
Preach a little gospel, sell a couple bottles of
Doctor Good

[CHORUS]
Gypsys, tramps, and thieves
We’d hear it from the people of the town
They’d call us Gypsys, tramps, and thieves
But every night all the men would come around
And lay their money down
