Jason Whitlock SLAMS Angel Reese’s fake victim act in latest WNBA scandal: ‘It’s a HOAX!’



Last weekend during the WNBA season kickoff, Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark received a flagrant foul when she slapped the arm of the Chicago Sky’s Angel Reese. Reese immediately responded by bowing up to Clark, resulting in a technical foul for verbal taunting.

It wasn’t long before allegations of Fever fans targeting Reese with racial slurs emerged, resulting in the league launching an investigation.

Coincidence?

Jason Whitlock thinks not.

“Angel Reese misbehaves poorly, and the next thing you know — voila, Indiana Fever fans, they shouted racial taunts,” he says, calling the scandal “a hoax.”

The chances of the allegations being true are incredibly slim, given that the only people who go to WNBA games are “black women” and “left-wing lesbians” — none of whom are likely to hurl racial slurs, Whitlock explains.

Further, nobody seems to want to fess up about exactly what happened to fuel the allegations. Last week during a Chicago Sky practice, reporters interviewed Reese, who was willing to talk about everything except what actually happened.

Whitlock plays the clip of the interview.

“How did it affect you Saturday trying to do your job, trying to play and having this going on simultaneously?” one reporter asked.

“It's tough, but I think I have a great support system. I'm loved by so many people,” Reese responded.

“What do you think of the league's response, just coming out right away and getting that investigation going?” another reporter asked.

“They understand that this is the priority. Obviously, there’s no place for this,” Reese said.

One reporter then attempted to shift the conversation to the actual allegations, asking where the alleged racial slurs were coming from in the arena, but he was quickly shut down by Reese, who said, “That’s not a me question.”

Another reporter chimed in, asking, “What would you like the league to do with those fans?” but a Sky PR staffer interrupted, shutting the question down.

Whitlock says it’s obvious they don’t want to talk about what happened precisely because “nothing happened.”

“Nothing happened to her other than she gets to nail herself to a cross and pretend like she's a victim,” he says.

What’s really beneath these fake allegations is a deep hatred for Caitlin Clark, he argues. But because she knows “Caitlin Clark has done nothing to [her],” she’s instead taking out her vitriol on Clark’s fans.

“Caitlin Clark fans — they're the real bad people, and they're in the arena shouting negative things at me, racist things,” Whitlock mocks.

The Left Ultimately Just Wants To Throw Conservatives In Prison

The story of a Yale graduate charged for allegedly using a racial slur should stand as a warning about the left’s true intentions.

Another race hoax? School board member charged after allegedly planting noose on her own desk



A member of the school board of directors in Allentown, Pennsylvania, has been criminally charged after she apparently fabricated a race hoax by allegedly fashioning a noose and planting it on her desk.

Around 7:40 a.m. on January 10, the Allentown Police Department received a call from LaTarsha Brown, a 42-year-old city employee and school board member. Brown reported that a half-hour earlier, she had arrived at her desk on the third floor at City Hall and discovered "what she believed to be a noose" lying there, a statement from the APD said.

'Acts like this have long plagued our communities and serve as a painful reminder of the work still ahead.'

Brown reportedly acknowledged to police that she picked up the item and took a picture of it but did not do "much more than that." She also quickly fired off a lengthy email to her work colleagues, ostensibly about the alleged incident.

Within days, community activists gathered outside City Hall to demonstrate against the supposed "hate crime." "Enough is enough," wailed Union Baptist Church Pastor Benjamin Hailey, who referred to the alleged noose as "a symbol of hatred."

"Acts like this have long plagued our communities and serve as a painful reminder of the work still ahead," added state Rep. Napoleon Nelson (D-Montgomery), chairman of the Pennsylvania Legislative Black Caucus. "I am deeply dismayed but unfortunately not surprised."

By that time, law enforcement was already busy conducting an investigation into the alleged noose. Officers identified all the city employees who accessed the third floor of City Hall between the time Brown left work on the afternoon of January 9 until she returned to work the following day.

Cops also asked each of the employees whether they were willing to provide a sample of their DNA. "Every city employee agreed, except Ms. Brown," the APD statement said, though she eventually reversed course after the Lehigh County D.A.'s office secured a search warrant.

At some point, Brown apparently seemed to lose interest in getting to the bottom of alleged noose. Though she was "initially cooperative," police said, Brown "later requested that the investigation be discontinued."

Her request was apparently denied, because the alleged noose and the DNA samples were sent over to the Pennsylvania State Police crime lab for testing.

On March 10, the PSP Forensic DNA Division issued a report claiming that "Ms. Brown's DNA matched the DNA profile obtained from the swabs of both the outer surface and the inner knotted portion of the noose after taken apart," APD claimed. APD reiterated that "no other person's DNA profiles" were found on the evidence collected in connection with the case.

On Monday, APD announced that Brown had been charged with tampering with or fabricating physical evidence and filing a false report, both misdemeanors. Together, the charges carry a maximum sentence of three years in jail and a $7,500 fine.

'LaTarsha Brown is innocent. LaTarsha Brown deserves justice.'

Not only do police have forensic evidence that indicates Brown concocted a race hoax, but other circumstantial evidence may point to a possible motive.

By the time the alleged noose appeared on her desk, Brown had already filed discrimination complaints against a coworker and had even emailed her superiors on January 9 — the day before she found the apparent noose — to inquire about resolving those complaints via mediation, according to Lehigh Valley News, which cited court documents.

After finding the alleged noose, she emailed her bosses again, claiming to have reached her "breaking point."

Brown did not respond to a request for comment from Lehigh Valley News.

When reports of the alleged noose first broke, Allentown Mayor Matt Tuerk expressed concern, calling it "horrible and unacceptable." However, he now seems less convinced of its legitimacy.

"It’s doubly shocking that an employee would — that she would have fabricated this incident," Tuerk said after Brown was charged.

Still, Brown has some supporters who remain convinced that she is the innocent victim of a vicious hate crime. Activist Josie Lopez, who orchestrated the noose protest back in January, claimed that the charges are a "smear campaign" against Brown in "retaliation" for daring "to stand up against injustice."

"LaTarsha Brown is innocent. LaTarsha Brown deserves justice," Lopez urged.

"I am calling on the people of Allentown, the media, and everyone who believes in justice to stand with LaTarsha. We will not be silent."

Brown is an elected member of the Allentown School Board of Directors, and her term expires this year. However, according to the Lehigh Valley News, she has yet to file paperwork to run for re-election, and the deadline for submission expired last week.

‘That raises a red flag’: Ohio couple used to stir racial division



A new racial profiling story has gone viral, this time featuring a white mother of two who flew into a panic when she thought she was being followed.

Michelle Bishop was out jogging with her young children in a stroller in her suburban Ohio neighborhood when she noticed a car that she found suspicious — and believed it to be tailing her.

Bishop then ran to a neighbor's house, only to be shocked when the driver of the car, DaMichael Jenkins, pulled into the driveway and told Bishop that he lived there.

“I don’t believe that,” Bishop reportedly said, before leaving her stroller on the porch and with her children in tow. However, that was his home, and on that cool November night, he was simply driving slowly around the neighborhood to admire the Christmas lights.


Shannon Sharpe decided this was the perfect opportunity to stir racial division and recently interviewed the couple on “Nightcap.”

“When they say it’s an affluent neighborhood, it’s one of the wealthiest neighborhoods in Ohio,” Jenkins told Sharpe. “My house is the best house in this neighborhood, because I designed it from scratch. I’m an architectural designer. I bought the land, I financed the land, designed it from scratch, and I built it from the ground up using all my resources.”

“So, proud to come home,” he added, while Sharpe cheered him on.

Jason Whitlock of “Fearless” doesn’t believe the story warrants this kind of attention or division.

“That raises a red flag with me. They’re coming on to talk about something that happened in November, that as best I can tell, from all my research, police never got involved. It’s a little disagreement about someone, a woman, that was panicking with her kids,” Whitlock says.

“She’s on tape apologizing for the misunderstanding and trying to explain why she panicked and why she did what she did. She was caught off guard. There’s a car, she’s with her kid in a stroller, and another child’s walking beside them, and the car isn’t passing them by, it’s creeping right behind them,” he continues.

“The man goes on Shannon Sharpe’s show to talk about this, and the first thing that comes out of his mouth is ‘Shannon, this ain't just an affluent neighborhood, it’s the wealthiest neighborhood in all of Ohio,’” he says, adding, “Who would go on a show, ‘Hey, I had some racial incident but let me tell you how rich my neighborhood is’?”

‘The making of a race clown’: ESPN has its very own Jussie Smollett



If you thought society was marked safe from the likes of Jussie Smollett, then you’d be wrong, because there's more than one of him.

And Jason Whitlock says one of those Smollett clones is ESPN host Ryan Clark.

“When everybody was doing their George Floyd gimmick, their Jussie Smollett gimmick, Ryan Clark went on television. I can’t think of the name of this black host who assisted him in telling this far-fetched comical tale about the racism that his son experienced. And Ryan Clark got to crying on TV,” Whitlock says.

According to Clark’s son, he and a couple of his college football teammates went to a Whataburger during lockdowns, when only the drive-thru was open. Because the boys didn’t have a car, they asked a woman who was going through the drive-thru if she would order their food for them and they’d pay her in turn.


Clark’s son claimed that the woman then complained to the manager about their harassment and that he comped her meal. When it was done, she allegedly turned to them and yelled, “Thanks for the free food, n*****s.” He said she said the slur again, and the manager told them they were in the wrong.

“Now, this is a white woman who, according to the story, seems to be in the car by herself, and there’s three college football players, large men, athletic-looking men, and this woman in Arizona just wants to shout the N-word at them without being provoked?” Whitlock asks.

“She’s just looking for trouble with three large, athletic, young black men,” Whitlock continues. “Do you think this story makes sense? And that the manager they’re insinuating overheard all of this and sided with the racist white woman?”

Regardless of whether the story is true or not, Whitlock sees the tale — and Clark’s dramatic reaction on television — as a symptom of a larger issue.

“This is the delusion that we live in. This is the reflection of the matriarchal culture, and this is Ryan Clark, a man that played a combat, predatory sport, football. He doesn’t realize he’s developed the mindset of a woman and he lives off in a fantasy world,” Whitlock says.

“This is the making of a race clown. This is a dance and a ritual. This is something Ryan Clark has to do in order to get that paycheck from people that want you focused on a conflict between black and white people,” he adds.

Students expelled over bogus 'blackface' claims just taught the school a valuable lesson worth over $1 million



A pair of 14-year-old boys donned acne face masks along with a friend in August 2017. Realizing they looked "silly," they decided to take a selfie — having no idea that a mob of thin-skinned ideologues might jump to conclusions years down the road.

The photo resurfaced in June 2020. It was immediately seized upon as an example of the racism that was supposedly everywhere in the aftermath of the deadly Black Lives Matter riots.

Rather than launch a proper investigation, which would have undoubtedly cleared the boys of any wrongdoing, the teens' school effectively branded them as racists then had them expelled.

"We would never wish the pain, humiliation, and suffering St. Francis has inflicted on our families on anyone," said the Hughes family

Saint Francis High School in Mountain View, California, has paid the price for rushing to judgment.

With the help of the Dhillon Law Group, which has represented other minors similarly traduced over racially-charged hoaxes, the teens, Holden Hughes and Aaron Harley, sued the high school with their parents for over $20 million. While ultimately unable to exact the full toll for their malignment, the former students walked walked away this week with $1 million plus tuition reimbursement.

The Los Angeles Times indicated that a Santa Clara County jury sided with the former students who claimed the school breached an oral contract and failed to give them due process before expelling them.

"Twenty percent of our boys' lives have been spent seeing this process come to fruition. But the sacrifice is worth it to clear our boys' names, and to try and make sure that St. Francis can never again assume a child is guilty without giving a child the opportunity to show their innocence. To never again sacrifice any child to protect the school's reputation like they did our boys," the Hughes family said in a statement.

"We would never wish the pain, humiliation, and suffering St. Francis has inflicted on our families on anyone, but we are thankful that the jury has spoken, and vindicated our boys, and forced St. Francis to finally take responsibility for their repeated personal attacks on the boys," added the family.

Background

The original complaint indicated that on Aug. 17, 2017, Hughes and Hartley, then both 14 years old, put on white acne masks that Hartley's mother purchased to help with his skin condition, reported NBC News.

"Believing themselves to look 'silly' in the masks, [Harley] and [a friend from another school identified as Minor III] took a time-stamped photograph of themselves in the masks," said the lawsuit.

The next day, Hughes, Hartley and Minor III instead tried on a light green acne face mask.

"Again, they took a silly photograph in this mask, which had turned dark green by the time it dried on their faces," said the lawsuit.

— (@)

The boys did not share the image online. However, Minor III shared it to a friend, who ultimately "tagged a music playlist on her Spotify account with a copy of the photograph."

Years later, a student at the school reportedly obtained a copy of the photo, named the students, and insinuated that they had engaged in blackface.

Alicia Labana, a parent originally named as a defendant in the suit, made matters worse by allegedly posting the photo on Facebook ahead of a planned march to protest "outrageous behavior" and to pressure the school to act.

According to lawsuit, the image was condemned by school staff and parents alike and prompted a parent-led protest against the minors.

Jason Curtis, president of the school, reportedly rushed to issue a public condemnation. Absent an investigation into the image, a hearing taking up the accusations or the involvement of the school's review board, Hartley and Hughes were told within 24 hours of the scandal breaking they had to withdraw from the school or face expulsion.

The teens left the school in June 2020 and filed suit the following year.

Hughes reportedly indicated his family had to put up security cameras around their home and pled with the Los Altos Police to execute additional patrols in the area for fear of attacks.

Hartley said his family had to move away on account of the persistent harassment and that he had to complete high school remotely, reported the Post.

Vindicated

The Palo Alto Post reported that a jury of 12 reached their verdict on Monday following 20 days of testimony and three days of deliberation. The boys will receive $500,000 each from the high school and be reimbursed for their tuition, an estimated $70,000 for their three years at Saint Francis High School.

Saint Francis High School spokesman Jamie Perkins said in a statement obtained by the Post, "We respectfully disagree with the jury's conclusion … regarding the fairness of our disciplinary review process and are exploring legal options, including appeal as there is no legal precedent applying that claim to a high school."

The former students' legal team suggested that this case establishes a new precedent by extending protections set by the California Supreme Court in Boermeester v. Carry, which requires fair procedure rights for students at private universities. Accordingly, such fair procedure rights will allegedly apply to private high schools.

Krista Baughman, partner at the Dhillon Law Group, stated, "This case is significant not only for our clients but for its groundbreaking effect on all private high schools in California, which are now legally required to provide fair procedure to students before punishing or expelling them."

"The jury's verdict finally cleared our clients' names after four long years of repeated personal attacks from St. Francis High School. Schools are supposed to protect and nurture children, not sacrifice them when it is convenient for public relations purpose," added Karin Sweigart, counsel with the Dhillon Law Group.

The former students' parents expressed hope that this result will prompt the school's board of directors to "hold those responsible for these actions and make needed changes to protect students moving forward."

Young Chiefs Fan Should Sue Deadspin Into Oblivion For Inventing Blackface Hoax About Him

The family of the young Chiefs fan at the center of Deadspin's apparently defamatory blackface smear should sue the outlet into oblivion.
