PleaseBlitz Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 So it turns out that the Trump appointee responsible for enforcing anti-discrimination laws in consumer financial services is, you’ll be so shocked to hear, an open racist. https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/trump-anti-discrimination-official-once-called-most-hate-crimes-hoaxes/2018/09/26/05438bbe-c0fe-11e8-92f2-ac26fda68341_story.html?utm_term=.047753cf9401 Quote A senior Trump appointee responsible for enforcing laws against financial discrimination once questioned in blog posts written under a pen name if using the n-word was inherently racist and claimed that the great majority of hate crimes were hoaxes. Eric Blankenstein, a policy director at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, expressed those and other controversial views more than a decade ago on a political blog he co-authored with two other anonymous contributors. Quote In a 2004 post, Blankenstein wrote that a proposal at the University of Virginia to impose harsher academic penalties for acts of intolerance was “racial idiocy.” He questioned how authorities could know the motivation of someone using a racial slur. “Fine . . . let’s say they called him n----- ,” he wrote, spelling out the slur. “. . . would that make them racists, or just a-------?” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is this being reported? Edit: nvm I found it. I think this is what they'll do. Just keep saying in public that the FBI has free reign and can do whatever they want, while restricting it as much as they can. I really hope the Senate demands an answer from the FBI as to whether this is true (yeah right). So the WH is telling the FBI that they can only interview who they SAY they can interview and investigate what they SAY they can investigate in a situation where they have an enormous interest in the outcome of the investigation? God I hope this blows right the hell up in their faces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanye lost his mind a long time ago, his main goal is to keep his name in the spotlight so wearing a CK shirt along with his red hat is just a continuation of that. TWA knows this. No idea why I bother to reply to him at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That statement has nothing to do with last night. It has everything to do with the fact that Kanye West is an idiot. He's a musical talent, I'll give him that but his brain is mush. He always puts stuff on social media like, "Be like a drop of water and the ocean is your army" and people act like it's all profound. The reality is that it's completely useless nonsense.
