Wa Examiner: The co-founder of Black Lives Matter names a convicted cop killer as one of her heroes, and the BLM national organization is fiscally sponsored through a leftist group whose board of directors includes a convicted terrorist.

Alicia Garza, one of three co-founders of the Black Lives Matter national organization, has repeatedly talked about how convicted cop killer and wanted domestic terrorist Joanne Chesimard, also known as Assata Shakur, is one of her main inspirations. Susan Rosenberg, a member of the board of directors for the left-wing Thousand Currents group, which handles the intake of donations made to Black Lives Matter, is a convicted terrorist who, among other things, was suspected of helping Shakur escape from prison.

Rosenberg, who was listed as the vice chairwoman of the board of directors for Thousand Currents until the webpage was pulled down this week, as first reported by the Capital Research Center, had been a member of the radical leftist revolutionary militant group known as the May 19th Communist Organization, affiliated with the Weather Underground terrorist group and other radicals. She was convicted on weapons and explosives charges and sentenced to 58 years in prison, serving 16 years before being pardoned by President Bill Clinton in January 2001.

    …and everyone ELSE on the board is an UNconvicted terrorist, so six of one, half-dozen of another…

    …in a SANE world, they’d all be in Gitmo or dead. But this isn’t a sane world (thanks, Democrats), so here we are with terrorist terroizing the Country at the request, with the approval, and with the support of some of the people paid to RUN the SAME Country, go figure…

  2. A little harsh perhaps…Rosenberg , related to the spies of ww2, was connected to and a part of the infamous Brinks truck robbery that resulted in the death of police and had they not been shot, might have arrested the robbery gang. So, Rosenberg, raising money for the Weather
    underground and Black Panthers is now raising money for BLM ..and works for a Soros front to accomplish the laundering. Our country is fu.kd that this is now the military arm of the Democrats…but there is more…Rosenberg was sought in the Brinks robbery and pulled over by some racist cop who discovered an AK-47, a machine gun with 50cal. bullets and over 730 pounds of explosives. Clinton pardoned her…

  3. Fake news …Wikipedia….omission number one is the scale of the weapons charge as to severity, number two is that wiki points out that the fifty year sentence was 10 times average for this charge ie a single gun. Number three is that she did a plea deal and got58 years because she was scheduled to be tried for cop murder and get the death penalty. Giuliani was prosecutor and wanted to save taxpayer money for another year long ordeal and of course no one would pardon a maniac murderer…except a Democrat. She went out of prison and directly into college teaching and money management…dead cops have not been heard from and their families meant nothing to Bill Clinton.

  4. Armin…thanks for making the distinction between commie Jews and Jews…it is an important point. Non commie Jews are nice, they tell clean and funny jokes, they hate the Kibbutz and like to marry Christians. Commie Jews form unions, began the Communist Party in Germany but lost to the Socialist Party . In South Africa, they started the communist ANC and picked Mandela for the face they needed. They were very upset when asked to leave after getting control of the country. Ali sky was one of them, so is Schumer.
