<\/p>\n

Here’s how it starts:<\/p>\n

According to Fox News,\u00a0Kristen Clarke<\/a>, Joe Biden\u2019s nominee to lead the Justice Department\u2019s Civil Rights Division, organized a conference at which left-wing activists championed cop-killers and backed the freeing of violent criminals. Fox News reports:<\/p>\n

According to a previously unseen university transcript obtained by the American Accountability Foundation and given to Fox News, Kristen Clarke was a critical leader and organizer of the controversial Race-ing Justice Conference while she was a student a Columbia Law School in April 1999<\/em><\/p>\n

The transcript points to Clarke as the event organizer multiple times, as many speakers thanked her and other organizers for bringing the conference together. Clarke was previously reported as only being a contact for the conference.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

What was the conference Clarke organized about? It was mainly about freeing cop-killers and radical extremists:<\/p>\n

The conference organized left-leaning students and anti-government activists in their shared support of freeing death row inmates, whom they referred to as \u201cpolitical prisoners.\u201d The list included people convicted for a wide array of crimes, including convicted cop-killers\u00a0Mumia Abu-Jamal<\/a>,\u00a0Mutulu Shakur<\/a>,\u00a0Sundiata Acoli<\/a>, and\u00a0Tom Manning<\/a>, in addition to other radical extremists.<\/em><\/p>\n

The convicted criminals the conference equated to \u201cpolitical prisoners\u201d included Assata Shakur \u2014 who was convicted of murdering a New Jersey state trooper, escaped from prison and remains on the FBI\u2019s Most Wanted list \u2014 and Susan Rosenberg, who was convicted for transporting multiple illegal firearms and over 740 pounds of explosives.<\/em><\/p>\n

Rosenberg was also a member of the American communist terrorist group, the May 19th Communist Organization, that bombed the US Capitol on Nov. 7, 1983.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I guess attacks on the Capitol, the\u00a0\u201ctemple of our democracy\u201d<\/a>\u00a0\u2014 didn\u2019t bother Clarke much back then.<\/p>\n
