BIRMINGHAM, AL (AP) The Trump administration on Friday slashed $400,000 in federal funding for one of the few U.S. groups that combat white extremism but denied it is now focusing only on fighting radical Islamists.
A grant announcement by the Department of Homeland Security eliminated funding for the Chicago-based Life After Hate, which was initially awarded the money in January during the closing days of the Obama administration.
(snip)
In all, Homeland Security awarded $10 million to 26 police and community organizations, none of which has a specific mission to counter groups in the so-called alt-right, a hodge-podge of white supremacists, white populists and white nationalists, many of whom supported Trump for president.

CASE IN POINT:
Obama paid her $175K plus federal perks; yet Valerie Jarrett
pocketed $36K pension from Part-Time Chicago Transit job

Chicago is known for its L-train. But it's the gravy train that White House senior adviser Valerie Jarrett prefers to ride.
In addition to the $173,922 Jarrett earns per annum as President Obama's senior adviser, she is also paid an annual pension of $35,660 for the eight years she served as chairman of the Chicago Transit Authority, according to a Chicago Sun Times investigation.
Jarrett was appointed to chairman of the agency - a part-time position - in 1995 by then-mayor Richard Daley, whose brother, William Daley, served as Obama's chief of staff. Jarrett served as the former mayor's deputy chief of staff and was appointed to numerous other positions during his term. (Excerpt) Read more at dailycaller.com ...
======================================
How many federal and state govt checks is Valerie Jarrett cashing?
How many transportation bonds were issued while Jarrett was at Chicago Transit?
Valerie's pension payout would pale against her hidden income from lucrative Chicago bond deals.
(a) they took control of the US Census;
(b) Obama placed his COS Rahm Emanuel in control of the US Dept of the Treasury (the IRS).
THE SMOKING GUN---WSJ REPORT--On Jan 20, 2009 Timothy Geithner was appointed Obama's Secy of the Treasury. But within three weeks, the Obama White House tightened its grip on Treasury. Obama put his COS, Rahm Emanuel, in charge of Treasury---Rahm Emanuel's dual role was an unusual move.
When he got to Treasury, WH COS Rahm Emanuel was so involved in the inner workings of the Treasury that the phrase "Rahm wants it" had become an unofficial mantra among subservient govt staffers, prostrate in obeisance, scurrying to accede to Rahm's wishes, according to Treasury government officials.

THIS MADE ME LAUGH OUT LOUD shortly after quitting his powerful WH job as Obama's COS, Rahm held a presser declaring he "just remembered" he really, Really wanted to be Mayor of Chicago. Then Rahm announced he had magically "raised" $10 million for his campaign in "just a matter of weeks." (waiting for hysterical laughter to die down). Ya gotta wonder how much Wall Street Rahm wired offshore when Obama put him in charge of the entire US Treasury.
=======================================
CHICAGO MAYOR RAHM EMANUEL STRONGLY DEFENDED "CHICAGO VALUES" (circa 2009)
Ballet dancer Mayor Rahm Emanuel gracefully plied into the controversy created after Alderman Proco Joe Moreno (1st ward) publicly announced his opposition to Chick-Fil-A opening in his ward b/c the Christian food company demurred WRT homo-marriages.
Mayor Rham chuckled while doing a graceful plie: "It's easy to do business in Chicago when you know 'the rules.' Chick-Fil-A can open in our town as long as it adopts 'Chicago Values'.....listed as follows: "
(1) weekly cash pay off to the alderman;
(2) hire six of the alderman's friends who work only random days of the month,
(3) BIG AL from the Mayor's office picks up all cash in brown paper bags at CFA's back door,
(4) Chick Fil A staff trained by Chicago PD to shoot 10-12 customers per month,
(5) Any CFA customers actually killed must be registered to vote as Democrats at the autopsies,
(6) $100,00 campaign contribution to Obama,
(7) free food to Jesse Jackson, Jr, who is now "convalescing in jail," b/c he screwed up buying Obama's Senate seat....and free sandwiches to ex-Gov Blago now in jail for running an auction to sell Obama's Senate seat to the highest bidder.
Raw propaganda. In reality there are more articles found on the internet about the villainy of the KKK than there now are members of the KKK:YOU ARE STILL CRYING WOLF (About Trump Racism)
OMG - "Jihad Turk"- I can't believe these names!
Just clumsy, transparent Leftist propaganda...
I wonder how much of that was taxed.
A grant announcement by the Department of Homeland Security eliminated funding for the Chicago-based Life After Hate, which was initially awarded the money in January during the closing days of the Obama administration.
...
So Obama went nearly the whole 8 years not fighting white extremism? No doubt this “grant” is little more than theft.
For many years Rush used to call for defunding the left. We have been in charge a few times but failed to do so.
Good- keep cutting!
Life After Hate’s head honcho has been calling for the overthrow of the President. It would be insane to keep funding these seditionists.
By combating “white extremism” they mean the existence of white people.
Winning is fun, and I’m not tired of it.

Since the lying left have been doing that for about 2 years now, I don't think anyone will notice.
