Dem Heavyweights Back BLM Bail Fund That Freed Would-Be Assassin

The bail fund that freed a Louisville Black Lives Matter activist charged with trying to murder a Jewish mayoral candidate is backed by Democratic fundraising juggernaut ActBlue, a progressive political group affiliated with the "Squad," and a liberal nonprofit funded by George Soros.

The Louisville Community Bail Fund, an affiliate of the city's Black Lives Matter chapter, posted $100,000 bail to spring Quintez Brown from jail following his arrest on charges of trying to assassinate Jewish Democratic mayoral hopeful Craig Greenberg.

The bail fund has an active page on ActBlue, the political fundraising platform used universally by Democratic candidates across the country. Justice Democrats—a far-left PAC supporting Alexandria Ocasio-Cortezand Ilhan Omar—also actively fundraises for the bail group on the platform. Contributions sent to the Louisville Community Bail Fund through ActBlue are routed through the Tides Center, a liberal dark money behemoth that has received millions of dollars from Soros. Tides gave nearly $740,000 to the bail fund in 2020.

The Democratic National Committee used ActBlue to rake in nearly $500 million in 2020, the same year Vice President Kamala Harris used the platform to promote a similar bail fund that freed an alleged domestic abuser weeks before he was arrested again for murder.

Police charged Brown with attempted murder and four counts of wanton endangerment after he allegedly entered Greenberg's campaign office, pulled a gun, and began shooting. Greenberg is an unabashed supporter of police—his campaign is centered on a plan to root out violent crime by hiring more law enforcement officers.

Roughly two days after Brown's arrest, the Louisville Community Bail Fund submitted $100,000 to secure his release. The fund has also paid to bail out accused rapists and murderers, including one woman who beat her boyfriend to death before hiding his remains.

In a Thursday morning statement, Greenberg criticized the Louisville Community Bail Fund's decision to secure Brown's release, saying the move "traumatized" him and his family.

"It is nearly impossible to believe that someone can attempt murder on Monday and walk out of jail on Wednesday," the Democrat said. "If someone is struggling with a mental illness and is in custody, they should be evaluated and treated in custody. Sadly, like others who suffer from a broken system, my team and family have been traumatized again by this."

If you are truly traumatized by this, why then are you running as Democrat?

Greenberg is himself a Leftist kook. Doesn’t stop blacks and Muslims from hating and violence.

Do they have no shame? Rhetorical question.

Doesn’t the judge bear responsibility for granting bail?

A fascist attempting to kill another fascist is something well below my level of caring.

I see no issues with democraps financing and bailing out assassins that try to kill their own party candidates. For the 1st time they can’t blame this on Republicants!

So, at least we know where $100,000 of the missing 60 million in charitable donations to BLM went. To bail out an attempted murderer trying to kill a mayoralty candidate. I have one thing to say to the virtue signaling airheads who donated to BLM - SUCKER!!!!

I was surprised to read that he was a Dem. I wonder if Quintez, who is probably certifiable, knew. Or whether his buttos were pushed by Jew, or by police support. If the latter, didn’t ne realize that fake police support is the Dem trickery of the day? Not likely to be followed up after the election.

Suppose "Democratic fundraising juggernaut ActBlue" was named "ActRed"?
