Dr. John Lott has a new piece up at The Hill on the issues of false media claims on race, Trump’s U.S. Department of Justice investigating civil rights violation charges in the Charlottesville case, and the question of what orders were given to the police in Charlottesville. The op-ed starts this way:
The media just can’t stop lying about President Trump’s views on racism and hatred.
The media has been awash in praise for the joint statement that former presidents George W. Bush and George H.W. Bush put out on Wednesday concerning the violence in Charlottesville. The statement was viewed as a rebuke of Trump’s statements.
The Dallas Morning News headline said, “Former presidents Bush rebuke Trump’s neo-Nazi stance.” The New York Times called it “a rare joint rebuke of Mr. Trump.” The New York Times praised George W. Bush for leading the condemnation of former KKK leader David Duke in 1991, and then accuses President Trump of being “equivocal in his public or private statements against white nationalists and other racist organizations.” The Times alleged Trump is “embracing” America’s “racially charged past.”
This all comes despite the Times’ Julie Davis quoting Trump as saying last November, “I disavow and condemn them,” in reference to a neo-Nazi conference in Washington, D.C.
But the strange thing about the Bush statement is that it so closely parallels Trump’s own statements. They wrote: “America must always reject racial bigotry, anti-Semitism, and hatred in all forms.” How is that fundamentally different than Trump saying on Saturday, “We condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence on many sides, on many sides…. It has no place in America.”
What about Trump’s statement on Monday? “As I said on Saturday, we condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry, and violence. It has no place in America. And as I have said many times before, no matter the color of our skin, we all live under the same laws.” Or Trump’s statement on Tuesday? “I’m not talking about the neo-Nazis and the white nationalists, because they should be condemned totally.”
Is the only difference that the Bushes condemned bigotry “in all forms,” whereas Trump condemned it “on many sides”?
In any case, Black Lives Matter is a racist group. Even the left-wing Huffington Post has called out its most visible members as “directing violent, hateful language towards people with white skin.” . . .

The Skull & Bones Bush family and people such as George Soros are globalists who do not want borders between countries. These various hysterias are simply organized to cause people to become fearful enough to give up freedom in return for feeling safe. Both political parties are complicit in working against the U.S. Constitution, and those in favor of preserving the Constitution should be called “Americanists”, not “Conservatives”. Neo-Cons are wolves in sheep’s clothing, and are full of deceit.
