Whitlock: Kyler Murray ‘answers’ Raiders challenge but remains a problem for Arizona



Right now, Kyler Murray is football’s Allen Iverson. You might read that analogy as high praise. It’s not.

It’s recognition of Murray’s dynamic skill, diminutive size, and uncanny ability to answer the problems he creates for the Arizona Cardinals.

A week after an embarrassing performance in the season opener, Murray added two more quarters of uninspiring play to his 2022 resume. At halftime on Sunday, his Cardinals had a real problem. They trailed the Las Vegas Raiders 20-0.

The pint-sized QB with a 2XL contract was a social media laughingstock around 2:30 pm Sunday. Twitter memes blamed Murray’s lackluster performance on a beta test of a new video game. Ninety minutes later, Murray was the toast of the NFL.

He razzled, dazzled, and rallied Arizona to a 29-23 overtime victory. Numbers don’t tell the Murray story. You had to see it to believe it and appreciate it. In a game of giants, the 5-foot-9, 205-pounder made would-be tacklers look like level-one ghosts chasing an elite Pac-Man video game player.

The two-point conversion run Murray converted early in the fourth quarter couldn’t be pulled off in a game of "Madden." Later in the fourth, on a play that will be forgotten, Murray escaped a sack, danced around in the backfield, and forced a holding call on Las Vegas that converted a fourth and four. Four plays later, Arizona tied the game with a Murray touchdown run and a two-point, seeing-eye laser to receiver A.J. Green.

Kyler Murray is the answer.

He’s also the problem. Same as Allen Iverson.

You couldn’t take your eyes off Allen Iverson on the basketball court. The undersized point guard captured your attention and imagination. You marveled at his skill and fearless approach. You were so impressed with his ability to dominate men twice his size, you overlooked his propensity to create his own problems. Iverson was an underdog. Who doesn’t love rooting for an underdog?

My problem with Iverson was he could’ve been Isiah Thomas. I’d rather be Isiah Thomas than Allen Iverson. Thomas was the solution, not the answer. Answers are temporary and change depending on the question.



Iverson won an MVP trophy, but never won an NBA title. Thomas never won MVP, but won two titles in the era of Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, and Larry Bird.

Thomas had a better career than Iverson. Thomas isn’t given the credit his accomplishments deserve. Winning two championships in an era when the NBA was heavily invested in promoting Jordan, Magic, and Bird is one of the most impressive feats in modern team sports.

I enjoy watching Kyler Murray. I don’t envision him winning a Super Bowl. He’s too inconsistent. His decision-making is too erratic. He doesn’t care about preparation. That’s why the Cardinals tried to impose a film-study clause in his contract.

Like Iverson, one day Murray will be captured in an interview mocking the discussion of practice.

“We talking ‘bout practice. Not a game.”

Murray’s career will feature a long list of highlights and Pro Bowl appearances. He might even win MVP one season. Being football’s Allen Iverson will make Murray memorable.

Same as Iverson. No one will forget Iverson’s crossover dribble against Michael Jordan. No one will forget Iverson stepping over Tyronn Lue in the 2001 NBA Finals.

But Iverson isn’t remembered as a winner or champion.

We live in a time when many athletes and fans would prefer Iverson’s legacy over Thomas’. Many people prefer style over substance.

I’m not one of those people. Iverson underachieved. Kyler Murray is headed down the same path.

Whitlock: Self-aggrandizement defines the culture that replaced Martin Luther King Jr.’s dream



One of my most vivid memories of childhood is walking down my neighborhood street telling my best friend, Butch, that I wanted to be the next Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.

It was the mid-1970s. I was 8 or 9 years old. Me, my older brother and mom lived at 3920 Grand Ave, in a 2-bedroom flat on the east side of inner-city Indianapolis. The 650-square foot apartment cost $75 a month. My parents had divorced four years prior. My mom worked as an hourly employee at Western Electric, earning roughly $6 an hour as a factory worker. We were poor. I fit the profile for trouble. Big and athletic, I had a penchant for shoplifting, mischief, and fighting.

Luckily, I was tugged by the culture. Dr. King's legacy and shadow ruled the culture. I wanted to be him. I wanted to wear a suit and tie and command the attention and respect of the world. From my all-black, ghetto setting, I dreamed of furthering his dream of creating a society that reflected the kingdom promised by an allegiance to God and America's founding documents. That was the culture that influenced me. That culture blinded me to my impoverished circumstances, inspired me to see a world of limitless possibilities, and demanded that I capitalize on my parents' and their generation's sacrifice.

Today's culture baffles me. All of it, but most especially the culture corporate media frame as "black."

Yesterday, I wrote about celebrity entertainer Nick Cannon's appearance on the popular urban radio/TV show "The Breakfast Club." During the interview, Cannon justified his irresponsible, seven-kids-with-four-women family life by insinuating the nuclear, traditional family is a racist Eurocentric approach to life. He placed all responsibility for family structure on women.

Cannon's interview helped me understand how distant I am from modern "black" culture, an outgrowth of liberal political manipulation through the adoption of Critical Race Theory as a guiding worldview. The culture is secular. It attributes the behavior and outcomes of black people solely to white people. In modern culture, men are weak, women are leaders, black people are not responsible for our destiny, the n-word is a term of endearment, and, most importantly, blackness is defined by political affiliation.

"You ain't black, if you ain't a Democrat."

I reject it all. I'm not weak. I believe in the patriarchy. I'm responsible for my destiny and outcomes. The n-word — regardless of the speaker's color or pronunciation — is disrespectful and harmful. I'm a lifelong non-voter and refuse a political identity.

This new culture assigned to black people by Hollywood, academic, political, athletic, and literary elites has demonized the tactics Dr. King used to expand freedom to African-Americans. The strategic, nonviolent, dignified approach of the civil rights movement is now ridiculed as "respectability politics." George Floyd, a career criminal and drug addict, has been substituted for Rosa Parks. Skinny jeans worn lower than boxers and wife-beaters have replaced suits and ties.

I'm an old man struggling to deal with change. But you will never convince me that respect, a dignified appearance, and a reputation free of criminality will go out of style or lose their effectiveness.

Rather than capitalize on the sacrifices of its American ancestors — from Thomas Jefferson to Frederick Douglass to Abraham Lincoln to Booker T. Washington to Dr. King — modern culture looks to exploit and/or diminish those sacrifices with a fraudulent, self-aggrandizing imitation.

Self-aggrandizement means to aggressively increase one's power and wealth by any means necessary. Modern culture perfectly reflects the selfie generation, the generation mimicking Dr. King, Malcolm X, Rosa Parks, Medgar Evars, John and Bobby Kennedy for power and wealth.

LeBron James poses as an activist to enrich his primary employer, Nike.

Shaun King poses as a black man and activist to enrich himself.

The NFL and NBA embraced Black Lives Matter to secure sponsorship from major global corporations.

Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Waters, Stacey Abrams, President Joe Biden, and Vice President Kamala Harris pretend that requiring government-issued identification to vote is Jim Crow 2.0 as a means to maintain their power.

Nick Cannon blames racism for his dysfunctional family structure as a means to protect his reputation and rationalize his irresponsibility.

Colin Kaepernick took a knee and quit football because he wasn't man enough to accept his uncanny athleticism could no longer mask his immature approach to preparation and leadership.

Maria Taylor couldn't get the contract she wanted from ESPN, so she claimed Drew Brees, Dave Lamont, Rachel Nichols, and the bosses who fast-tracked her career were all racist.

I'm all for power and wealth. There's nothing wrong with pursuing it.

But when your tactics mirror Confederate President Jefferson Davis' race-based strategy, I find it offensive when you cast yourself as the woke Martin Luther King Jr.

Naw, you're just a bigot promoting a culture that leads to a separate and unequal country.

Whitlock: What do freedom and Olympic sprinter Lamont Marcell Jacobs have in common? Americans too quick to abandon both



The most infuriating aspect of America's fall from grace are the causes: neglect, arrogance, and irresponsibility.

In a little less than 10 seconds Sunday morning, Lamont Marcell Jacobs spotlighted the characteristics knocking the United States off its world perch.

Jacobs blitzed the field, winning the 100-meter dash final at the Tokyo Olympics, claiming the title of world's fastest man for his home country of Italy. Jacobs' victory in the Summer Games' premier event extended America's 100-meter drought to a 17th year, the longest absence for USA in Olympics history.

American Thomas Burke won the inaugural 1896 Olympics 100-meter final. All the way through 1968, Americans won 12 of the 16 gold medals awarded in the men's 100-meter dash. Our longest previous drought lasted three olympiads — '72, '76, and U.S.-boycotted 1980 Games. American Stanley Floyd would've been the favorite to win gold in 1980.

Carl Lewis restored order in 1984 and 1988. Maurice Greene and Justin Gatlin held the title until Jamaica unveiled a 6-foot-5 freak of nature, Usain Bolt, the greatest sprinter of all time. No one in America could complain from 2008 to 2016 as Bolt redefined what humans could do in 100 meters. Bolt was different. Bolt was special.

Lamont Marcell Jacobs? Who is he?

Four years ago, he was a long jumper. He didn't compete in the sprints.

What's worse is Jacobs was born in El Paso, Texas. His black father was a member of the U.S. Army. His white mother was Italian. A month after Jacobs was born, the Army deployed his dad to South Korea. Jacobs' mom returned to Italy. Father and son never reconnected until a year ago, when Jacobs made the Olympic team and got tired of being asked about a father he did not know.

"I lived all my life without a dad," Jacobs told reporters Sunday after winning the gold medal.

America exported the fastest man in the world to Italy. We didn't protect, value, and nurture our seed, our resource.

The combination of arrogance and irresponsibility is killing America. We arrogantly take for granted the Judeo-Christian values and nuclear family culture that made us the greatest nation in the history of the world. And we've irresponsibly allowed the people who don't respect our values and culture to reshape our society.

I don't know the details of what transpired between Jacobs' parents. Maybe the mom fled America and hid her child in Italy. That is a possibility. There are vindictive mothers/parents who use their children as weapons. I don't want to vilify the dad without knowing the facts.

What we do know is the seed of an American man just slayed the world for another country. It reminds me of how businessmen such as Nike's Phil Knight or Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg build great American innovations and then allow them to be used to harm our culture.

We take America for granted. We don't appreciate the gift of being born here. We shirk our responsibility to protect the American way.

The American seed is freedom. We're neglecting it. It's running away from us as fast as Lamont Marcell Jacobs ran away from the American sprinter who finished in second place.

Whitlock: Hollywood, 1619 Project want The Messiah to disappear



This weekend, I watched the movie "One Night in Miami." I know I'm late. It's been out since January. I'm reluctant to watch any movie made in the last decade. I can't take the woke narratives.

Anyway, friends, including Uncle Jimmy, promised me I'd like "One Night."

I didn't.

"One Night" fictionalizes boxer Muhammad Ali's activities after he beat heavyweight champion Sonny Liston on February 25, 1964. Ali, along with NFL great Jim Brown and legendary singer Sam Cooke, is summoned to the hotel room of then-Nation of Islam spokesman Malcolm X. The four men engage in a robust and provocative conversation about race, America, their responsibility to bring about cultural change and their future plans.

It's a terrific premise that fails because the script ignores the elephant in every American room in 1964 — Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.

Six months after King led his historic March on Washington and unveiled his "dream," Muhammad Ali, Malcolm X, Jim Brown, and Sam Cooke spent hours confined in a hotel room combatively debating race and no one mentioned MLK. Really? I'm supposed to believe that?

This is not a small slight. It's yet another reimagining of history, a depiction of history that downplays the role of Christianity. The intent of the New York Times' 1619 Project is to demonize this country's Judeo-Christian roots and ethos. Judeo-Christian signifies America's Old Testament and New Testament biblical principles.

You didn't talk about race in 1964 without mentioning Martin Luther King. It's the equivalent of debating national-anthem protests without mentioning Colin Kaepernick. Christians, led by MLK, forced America to change for the better.

"One Night" cleverly taps into a theme that all movies directed at black audiences now seemingly require — angry black radicals forced America to change for the better.

"One Night" is the kindred spirit of Netflix's "Judas and the Black Messiah," a movie that celebrated Chicago Black Panther leader Fred Hampton. A movie painting Hampton, an unapologetic Marxist and atheist, as the messiah is both ironic and sacrilegious.

Hampton was called the "chairman" in honor of Chairman Mao Tse-tun, the founder of the People's Republic of China, an authoritarian ruler credited with killing millions through mass executions, starvation, and political persecution.

Hollywood movies subtly and overtly entice black Americans to abandon our Christian beliefs. Malcolm X is the protagonist of "One Night." Sam Cooke is the antagonist. Cooke is the godless, money-hungry proxy for Martin Luther King. Cooke represents hope and faith in the American dream. X and Cooke verbally spar throughout the movie. X chides Cooke for failing to make protest music the equal of Bob Dylan's classic "Blowin' in the Wind."

The movie concludes with Cooke performing "A Change Is Gonna Come" on "The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson" and Malcolm X seated on a couch at home nodding approval.

Here's my problem. In real life, Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech, delivered on August 28, 1963, inspired Cooke to write "A Change Is Gonna Come." Cooke said so. Cooke performed the song on Carson's show on February 7, 1964 — 18 days before Ali fought Liston in Miami.

I like Malcolm X. I've read the Autobiography of Malcolm X several times. It's my favorite book. But Malcolm X had nothing to do with Cooke writing "Change." X and the Nation of Islam did not cause America to erase its Jim Crow laws. The Nation should be celebrated for rehabilitating incarcerated men such as Malcolm Little (X). I'm all for that celebration.

But let's be clear on who were the primary drivers of the eradication of slavery and other forms of legalized discrimination.

Christians did that. They're rewriting history, making movies glorifying angry bigots and atheists, so they can convince you that you don't need the real messiah, and neither does America.

Hollywood wants to make Jesus and all his disciples disappear.

Whitlock: Richard Sherman case demonstrates how Jack Dorsey and Mark Zuckerberg are destroying America



ESPN is so afraid of the Twitter mob that the Worldwide Leader in Sports won't put a byline on its stories covering the arrest of NFL star Richard Sherman.

This is significant. It underscores the power of Twitter to manipulate basic journalism and force a two-tiered, racial standard of journalism equity.

ESPN.com has published four stories related to Sherman's domestic-disturbance, drunk-driving arrest. All of the stories are bylined "ESPN News Services." Here are links, links, links, and links to the stories.

Fear — not a search for truth or desire to inform the public — is driving ESPN's coverage of Richard Sherman. ESPN does not want to subject one of its black or white reporters to the racist bile popular with "Black Twitter." So, the network's stories about Sherman post without a byline and are written in a manner sympathetic to Sherman.

ESPN has yet to report that the uncle of Sherman's wife called 911 and stated that Sherman threatened his wife with violence. Yes, it's just an allegation. However, it's no different from Sherman's wife calling 911 and reporting that Sherman threatened suicide, drank two bottles of whiskey, and told his wife he would fight with police if they tried to arrest him.

Furthermore, since the 1994 OJ Simpson-Nicole Simpson tragedy, we've been educated on identifying the early signs of men who cannot control their violent tempers with spouses. I'm not analogizing Sherman to OJ. I'm saying there's a reason the King County Sheriff's office sought an order in February that barred Sherman from possessing a fireman. Sherman is a threat to himself and others.

ESPN is fearful of painting an accurate picture of Sherman. I'm sure some of its restraint is well-intentioned and based in fairness.

But would fear and fairness drive ESPN's coverage of a white athlete in trouble with law enforcement?

Let's take a look at ESPN's coverage of Chad Wheeler.

Police arrested Wheeler, a former backup offensive lineman for the Seahawks, on Saturday, January 23rd for domestic violence. Wheeler appeared in just five games in 2020. It took the news media several days to take notice of his arrest.

The hometown Seattle Times published a story on Monday, January 25th. Here's a link to that story. Approximately 24 hours later, ESPN weighed in on Wheeler's arrest. Here's a link to ESPN's story.

Notice the byline on the ESPN story, Brady Henderson. He covers the Seahawks for ESPN. Henderson is a fine sports writer. In no way am I attempting to cast Henderson in a negative light. He's a victim of Twitter's negative impact on journalism.

Henderson has tweeted about Sherman's arrest. He's even tweeted a link to the ESPN story about Sherman's court proceedings. Henderson and ESPN justifiably recognize the racially radioactive nature of the Sherman story. ESPN is shielding Henderson from the Twitter storm, and shielding itself by sharing a narrative favorable to Sherman.

There's no risk for a reporter attaching his name to a story examining Wheeler's alleged criminal activity.

Wheeler's criminal case became a bit of a social media cause celebre. Wheeler is white. His alleged victim is black and female. Shortly after his arrest was reported, a Twitter mob formed and began pushing the narrative that ESPN television downplayed and/or ignored the Wheeler case because of white supremacy, white privilege, systemic racism, fear of the Proud Boys, Charlottesville, Trump supporters, and Rachel Nichols' private conversations.

The fact that no one outside of Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll and a handful of Seattle players had ever heard of Chad Wheeler had little impact on ESPN's sparse coverage.

"No, ESPN was racist. The network covered Super Bowl champ, three-time Pro Bowler, two-time all-pro Ray Rice's 2014 domestic violence case because he was black," shouted the angry social media mob.

This column is not intended to take cheap shots at ESPN. Its purpose is to further expose just how corrosive Twitter is to fair, honest journalism. Twitter and Facebook are the primary drivers of two forms of separate-and-unequal corporate journalism — one standard for whites, one standard for blacks.

The social media apps are driving a wedge between black and white Americans. Jack Dorsey and Mark Zuckerberg are not journalists. They have installed themselves as the editor-in-chiefs of the news media. They're more toxic and destructive than Roger Ailes, Jeff Zucker, and Phil Griffin.

Politicians love Dorsey and Zuckerberg because of their naïveté, journalistic incompetence, malleability, and willingness to make it financially rain in protection of power.

We're living in the era of mob journalism. Black Twitter's control of the mob won't last forever, or even much longer. Soon, the mob will come for the very people who foolishly delighted in its existence.

Whitlock: ESPN, Dana White, Connor McGregor, and the Trump Missile Crisis at UFC 264



For nearly a decade, ESPN has waged a Cold War with traditional sports fans.

At the behest of its China-obsessed parent company, Disney, and Silicon Valley social media apps, the Worldwide Leader in Sports has done everything in its power to infuse patriotic sports fans with anti-American sentiment and bitterness.

ESPN disapproves of main street, working-class America, and it absolutely despises Trump supporters.

That's what makes the network's shotgun marriage to Dana White's UFC so fascinating. That's why UFC 264, Connor McGregor vs. Dustin Poirier, felt a bit like the Trump Missile Crisis.

Saturday night, moments before McGregor and Poirier entered the octagon, Dana White rolled and readied a ballistic nuclear missile ringside — Donald J. Trump. Frustrated by President Joe Biden's landslide Bay of Pigs Election, White personally escorted the former president to his seat at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

The capacity crowd went wild, chanting "USA! USA! USA!"

ESPN ignored the whole thing. They never mentioned that the former president was in the building. The Worldwide Leader followed the guidelines prescribed by Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. America's social media apps disappeared the 45th president. Like an obedient soldier, ESPN did, too.

This is wild. Trump's appearance was news. White's very public embrace of Trump is fascinating and newsworthy. It's not surprising. White is a longtime Trump supporter. But White and the UFC's stance is completely different from Roger Goodell and the NFL, Adam Silver and the NBA, Rob Manfred and Major League Baseball.

Our major sports leagues and commissioners would run from Trump as if he were a pack of Wuhan bats.

Personally, I don't find mixed martial arts all that entertaining. I don't enjoy street fights. I love boxing, the sweet science. However, I'm attracted to what the UFC has come to represent under White's guidance. The UFC is America first. Its fanbase is patriotic.

White is a combination of old Raiders owner Al Davis and deceased NFL commissioner Pete Rozelle. The NFL surpassed baseball as America's pastime partially because Rozelle intentionally marketed the league as supportive of law enforcement, the military and traditional American values. White is following Rozelle's formula.

It's odd to see the NFL lean in the opposite direction today.

There's a business cliche that the "customer is always right." This is no longer true in America. Major corporations do not care about the customer, not the American customer.

ESPN seems unconcerned with antagonizing its audience. And it has zero concern for giving its audience what it wants. UFC fans would've delighted in ESPN acknowledging Trump's attendance, and probably would've been pleased had a reporter interviewed the former president.

UFC fans don't view Trump as a pariah. They don't believe there was an "insurrection" on Jan. 6. That's a myth created by CNN, MSNBC, and the Democratic Party.

But let's remove Trump from the equation. There was at least one other flaming example of ESPN's disregard for its audience. Broadcaster Stephen A. Smith was part of the pre-fight coverage. He showed up dressed like he'd walked off the set of "Shaft."

Smith is an excellent NBA commentator. He knows virtually nothing about mixed martial arts and the UFC. His lack of MMA knowledge is no secret. He was part of the broadcast because ESPN must justify his $8-million-a-year contract.

Twenty years ago, ESPN would pay a swift and deadly price for treating its customers this poorly. Now? The checks and balances of capitalism have been undermined by China's economic influence and the modern monetary theory of endlessly printing money.

The bad guys are winning the new cold war.

Whitlock: The Washington Post, Racial Maddow, and CNN are bigger problems for black people than Tucker Carlson



The Washington Post is preparing a hit piece on Fox News host Tucker Carlson. Post investigative reporter Michael Kranish left me a voicemail on Tuesday requesting an interview. Carlson, Kranish relayed, was the subject of the request.

This will serve as my response to Kranish's appeal.

Over the past year, Carlson's nightly monologues have become must-see TV for me, and I don't watch much television. I gave up on cable news shows and major network scripted-TV shows years ago.

The last cable news show I watched regularly was "The Ed Show" on MSNBC. I related to the host, Ed Schultz, a former small-college football player who had a brief tryout with the Oakland Raiders. Schultz had a working-class point of view. MSNBC canceled his show in 2015.

Shortly after, I bailed on all cable news. I avoided all the partisan madness throughout most of the Trump presidency. Other than sporting events, Netflix and Amazon Prime, for about four years, I never turned on my television.

COVID changed my habits. I was living in Los Angeles along the Wilshire Corridor. I could no longer hangout at Wally's in Beverly Hills or frequent the iPic movie theatre two blocks from my apartment. Plus, I found our reaction to COVID fascinating and frightening. I began recreational use of cable news.

When Rev. George Floyd Luther III was assassinated, I started mainlining CNN, Fox News, and MSNBC. America was a 20-car pileup, and I couldn't divert my eyes from the wreckage.

By the time our elites finished "fortifying" the election, I was — by my standards — a cable news junkie. In my attempt to make sense of COVID, St. George Floyd, and President Joe Biden's landslide victory, I watched a couple hours of cable news per day.

I started rehab in December. I quit CNN and MSNBC cold turkey. They're just too nuts. They're too godless, too secular. Their religion is race and racism.

I'm now back to watching sports, movies made before 2015, reruns of "The Wire," "Sopranos," and "The Shield," and Tucker Carlson's monologues.

I suspect the Washington Post reporter wants to query me about why I used to make regular appearances on Carlson's show and why I haven't appeared in recent months. I'm sure Michael Kranish wants me to defend Carlson against allegations that he's racist.

I haven't appeared on Carlson's show in recent months because I've been focused on launching my own show, "Fearless with Jason Whitlock," for Blaze Media. And because Fox News hasn't made it financially worth my time to appear on its network. When I was a partner at the startup OutKick.com, it was difficult to generate traction and relevance without appearing on cable news. Blaze Media's infrastructure, team and success form a strong enough foundation to lift and support the Fearless project without assistance.

I may return to appearing on Carlson's show at some point in the future. His show is terrific and important. He's the sole TV personality speaking unvarnished truth to governmental abuse of power. He's the lone TV host practicing journalism on a daily basis.

It's incredible and inspiring to watch.

Is Tucker Carlson racist?

It's a stupid question. Every single human being on the planet is inflicted with biases, including Michael Kranish and everyone else working at the Washington Post, the New York Times, etc.

I've met Carlson several times. I do not know Carlson.

What I see and hear of him on television doesn't remotely strike me as anti-black. He strikes me as a person who loves the U.S. Constitution, the United States of America, Jesus Christ, and American freedom. He appears to have a problem with people who don't love or appreciate this country.

I have the exact same problem.

And, unlike Michael Kranish and Jeff Bezos, the owner of the Washington Post, all of my family and the majority of my friends are black. Also, unlike Bezos and other liberal elites, when I've been placed in a position to influence hiring decisions, black people have benefitted the most.

My family, friends, and co-workers are mostly black.

So let's don't start with the bull$h*t that any black person who defends Tucker Carlson is a sellout or has a problem with black people. Miss me with that.

Carlson doggedly pursues the truth from a pro-America, pro-Christian worldview. I love it! We need more of it.

If being pro-Jesus and pro-America makes you anti-black, then I would respectfully ask black Americans to re-evaluate their political point of view. Or I would ask the white liberal gatekeepers of black culture to reassess their definition of blackness.

That's what's transpiring. Under the guise of combating racism, black people are being asked to turn their backs on Jesus and their country. It has to stop. Black people must recognize that their white political overseers are using allegations of racism to disconnect them from Jesus, their country, and the truth. We, black people, have been programmed to view the world through a racial lens rather than a Christian lens. We foolishly think our racial biases are perfectly acceptable, and white people's are unforgivable.

I don't know Carlson in a real way. Perhaps in his personal life, he is as non-PC as I am. Trust me, when I'm not on camera, I say a lot of things liberal elites would find justifiably offensive.

So does my mom. So did my dad. So do many of my family members and friends. We're all flawed. We should all be grateful that Jesus Christ sacrificed for our sins.

Rather than debate Carlson's worldview, corporate media would rather frame him as a bigot. It's just a ploy to distract from corporate media's unchecked, anti-black bigotry.

Racial Maddow thinks far less of black people than Tucker Carlson does.
