Team Obama Surfaced in Corporations, backed Black Lives Matter Radicals
FreePressers ^ | 2020-06-08 | Joe Schaeffer

Posted on 06/08/2020 4:08:41 PM PDT by MurrietaMadman

As large corporations trip over themselves to virtue signal on behalf of Black Lives Matter in the wake of George Floyd's killing in police custody in Minneapolis, there has been quite a bit of debate over whether this is all mere theater meant to boost sales or sincere identification with a radical cause.

As we've documented in this column over the past year, the commitment by well-known corporate brands to progressive ideology has been extensive.

Since taking up this beat last June, we’ve detailed a dizzying and often-numbing array of examples of major companies financially supporting massive Third World immigration, abortion, transgender children, the shadowy machinations of George Soros and the corrupt political grifting of Barack Obama, the Bush family and the Clintons...

Two days ago https://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/3852791/posts was posted and some doubt was raised about corporate financial support because no money amounts were connected to the corporate contributions.

I was looking for the copies of the platinum, gold and silver corporate contributors to LaRaza ( they no longer use that name ) I saved from 2005 that contained that information but they must have been aboard that rubber raft that sunk a few years back.

Lo and behold... the timely arrival of https://freepressers.com/articles/team-obama-surfaced-in-corporations-supporting-black-lives-matter-radicals.

Hope it helps

They also have become more left as we lowered their taxes. I supported lowering every ones taxes for many years. Now that the only economic group of Caucasians to vote for Hillary were those earning over 100k and the more they were over the more they voted for her I believe we should raise their taxes now. People who vote Republican do so because they are over taxed so it Is now obvious that the wealthy are not paying their taxes and need a significant jump. And this article now gives more evidence to this need.

Its a shake down for further radicalization at a time when they could get the most money. After people catch their breath and think about it, they would have given much less

a most telling tale regarding Salmah Rivzi:

Paul & Daisy Soros Fellowship for New Americans
Fellows:
Salmah Y Rizvi, 2014
Attorney, Ropes & Gray
Salmah Y Rizvi is an immigrant from Indonesia
Fellowship awarded to support work towards a JDin Lawat New York University (NYU)
Born in Indonesia, Salmah Yasmeen Rizvi is the daughter of a Pakistani father and Guyanese mother. As a Muslim growing up in Laurel, Maryland, Rizvi has fought for justice her whole life.

At age 16, she was her district’s youngest ever Human Rights Commissioner, politically engaging the County Council and Board of Education on issues of racial injustice and educational inequality. While completing her B.A. at the Johns Hopkins University, Rizvi founded and led the humanitarian relief organization Vision XChange which produced competitive fundraising events to creatively tackle issues, such as child soldier recruitment and human trafficking, in the global grassroots...

Combining her interests in local, national and international public service, Salmah worked for the U.S. Department of State and National Security Agency during and after college. She mastered multiple foreign languages and impacted missions that countered terrorist financing and nuclear proliferation. While working full-time, she also completed an M.S. in Foreign Service from Georgetown University.

As a leader in government, Rizvi was appointed the first Chairwoman to the Defense Department’s Islamic Cultural Employee Resource Group by the Deputy Director of the N.S.A. She elevated the profile of Muslims as assets to U.S. national security and led ninety-two analysts in progressing reporting and demanding accountable intelligence on the Muslim world, while also enhancing diversity and inclusion in the workplace...

Numerous politicians and executive branch leaders, ranging from members of U.S. Congress to the President’s office applauded Rizvi for her public service with awards and various forms of recognition. After serving in government for nearly ten years, Rizvi left the DMV-area to complete a J.D. at the New York University School of Law. There, she served as Chair for the Women of Color Collective, where she worked to elevate the status of immigrant women institutionally and build a community that uplifted, rather than shunned, aspiring women of color attorneys who engaged in courageous, controversial, and bold activism.

Rizvi is currently a community leader and attorney for the law firm, Ropes & Gray in Washington DC.

4 Jun: NY Post: (Salmah Rivzi) Ex-analyst under Obama guarantees bail for alleged bomb-throwing lawyer
By Bob Fredericks
A former intelligence analyst who worked in both the State and Defense departments during the Obama administration guaranteed bail for a New York lawyer who allegedly firebombed an NYPD vehicle — calling her “my best friend.”

Salmah Rizvi, an NYU Law grad who now works for the prestigious DC firm Ropes & Gray, helped secure the release of fellow lawyer Urooj Rahman by agreeing to be a suretor for her bail during a bail hearing in Brooklyn federal court Monday, the Washington Free Beacon reported. (LINK).

“Urooj Rahman is my best friend and I am an associate at the law firm Ropes & Gray in Washington, DC. I earn $255,000 a year,” Rivzi told the judge, who sprang Rahman over prosecutors’ objections.

Rizvi’s intelligence work for the feds involved “focusing primarily on sanctioned finance operations,” according to her bio on Ropes & Gray’s website, which also touts her pro bono legal work.
She “maintains an active civil rights and human rights pro bono practice, focused on prison reform, LGBTQ equality, and immigration. She represents asylum seekers at various stages of litigation,” it says.

Her LinkedIn page says she worked for the feds from May 2008 to August 2013.
She also worked as a legal intern for the NYCLU from September 2014 to May 2015, and for the US Attorney’s Office in Manhattan from September 2015 to January 2016, according to the page.
Her bio at the Islamic Scholarship Fund added that “her high-value work would often inform the President’s Daily Briefs.”...

5 Jun: Breitbart: Bail Revoked for Attorneys Charged with Molotov Cocktail Attack on NYPD
by Joel B. Pollak
Rahman’s bail was posted by fellow attorney SALMAH RIZVI, who worked in President Barack Obama’s administration as an intelligence official, providing information for Obama’s daily briefing.
Prosecutors in the Eastern District of New York were dissatisfied with the suspects’ release and filed an appeal...
“The pair also passed out Molotov cocktails Friday night to crowds who were clashing with police so others could cause more destruction, prosecutors said. Authorities said they later found additional incendiary devices in their car,” Fox News reported.

They were taken into federal custody by U.S. Marshals after the appeals court ruling.

NOW TRY TO FIND ANY OF THE INTERESTING STUFF ABOVE ABOUT RIZVI IN THE MULTIPLE THOUSANDS OF WORDS GLOWINGLY WRITTEN BY 3 PROPAGANDISTS AT NYT ABOUT THE CASE:

7 Jun: NYT: The 2 Lawyers, the Anti-Protests and the Molotov Cocktail Attack
He was a Princeton-educated corporate lawyer. She provided legal services for the poor. Now they are accused in a Molotov cocktail attack on a police car.
By Nicole Hong and William K. Rashbaum; Susan C. Beachy contributed research
Both children of immigrants, they rose from working-class Brooklyn neighborhoods to win a long list of awards and campus leadership positions. Mr. Mattis graduated from Princeton University and New York University Law School, while Ms. Rahman went to Fordham University for college and law school.
As one friend put it, they were “N.Y.C. kids from impoverished backgrounds who made something of themselves.”...

If the charges prove to be true, were the two spurred by an ill-advised moment of anger — or did they act out of a deeper, darker disillusionment with the political system in the wake of Mr. Floyd’s death?...
A portrait of Mr. Mattis and Ms. Rahman was assembled from interviews with more than three dozen of their friends, relatives, colleagues, neighbors and former professors...

somehow this got edited out of the NYT excerpts I posted, while another line got repeated.
funny how it mentions Rizvi says Rahman is her “best friend”, yet NYT had nothing more to say about Rizvi!!! FakeNewsMSM usually relish any opportunity to make reference to their Messiah Obama:

(excerpt) Salmah Rizvi, who was also at the May 29 Zoom talk with Ms. Rahman, said nothing seemed unusual about Ms. Rahman’s recent behavior.
“She was in a good spiritual state this past month,” said Ms. Rizvi, who called Ms. Rahman her best friend...

Eyah but what else is new?

Lefties are in plenty of circles, and terrorists are part of the deep state.

The whole point I was making was that individual businesses have been supplying these extremists with money because this is the most dramatic time to do it.

Salesmen all know you get the client to sign ASAP once the sale is made. This was the perfect time when no one has been thinking clearly and its all part of the shakedown. a simple threat, “Do this or else you get branded a racist,” is enough.

Excuse me for butting in but that's a valid point for the time prior to the Bush/Clinton/Bush/Obama takeover. It falls short of communicating an understanding that what their actions have left US to deal with is a manipulated, splintered nation being led into the NWO they crave.

In a December 2018 column, Froman, who is a "Distinguished Fellow" at the globalist Council on Foreign Relations, flat-out declared that when it comes to the U.S. role in global trade, the American people do not come first:

"Nationalism, populism, nativism and protectionism exploit people’s sense of being left behind and excluded from the system. That is why we need to focus on ensuring universal inclusion in the economic networks that allow individuals and families to achieve financial security and pursue opportunities for betterment. This imperative applies as much to a Kenyan farmer or an Egyptian garment worker as it does to an American now eking out a living in the gig economy."...

I'm trusting the article gets read in its entirety. It's an explanation not likely to be seen elsewhere anytime soon.
