The “mainstream” left doesn’t even attempt to hide its hate, intolerance and racism. These are indeed astonishing times we are living in.
Bill Clinton sits with Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan at Aretha Franklin funeral
Former President Bill Clinton was seated in the front row of singer Aretha Franklin’s funeral Friday with controversial Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan.

Farrakhan, who has headed the Nation of Islam religious group since 1975, has been a controversial leader because of anti-Semitic and anti-white comments. He made controversial remarks this year during a Saviours’ Day 2018 address, in which he claimed “the powerful Jews are my enemy” and “white folks are going down.”
Story continues below advertisementOver the summer, Rep. Keith Ellison, D-Minn., was criticized for meeting a few times with Farrakhan, after Ellison said he has no relationship with him.
In January, it was revealed that Farrakhan was photographed in 2005 with then-Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., by photojournalist Askia Muhammad. Muhammad confessed that the Congressional Black Caucus requested the photo be hidden so as not to undermine Obama’s chances of becoming president.

Clinton and Farrakhan were also pictured at Franklin’s funeral on stage together, along with Rev. Al Sharpton and Rev. Jesse Jackson. Clinton spoke at the funeral and remembered her “courage.”
“She lived with courage,” Clinton said in his remarks. “Not without fear, but overcoming her fears. She lived with faith. Not without failure, but overcoming her failures. She lived with power. Not without weakness, but overcoming her weaknesses. I just loved her.”
Franklin was awarded the National Medal of the Arts and Humanities by Clinton in 1999. She sang at Clinton’s inauguration in 1993, in addition to the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner in 1999.
Franklin passed away on Aug. 16, following a battle with pancreatic cancer. The funeral was held Friday at Greater Grace Temple in Detroit.

He may not be a convert but it doesn’t guarantee goats or donkeys are any safer if Slick Willy is checking out the farm’s stock.

Most Demonrat “leaders” are crooked scumbags.
Dems were paid by Iranian lobbyists to support Nuke deal http://tinyurl.com/mcake4d
And their holdovers still support it.
And here’s old photo of clintons mocking the dumb blacks they claim to support !

Well, Farrakhan wouldn’t have been there without Franklin’s ok before she died, IMO. And that front row certainly “speaks” volumes, doesn’t it?

They all wanted the front row so they could watch Ariana Grande’s behind while she performed…..

Slick Willy and Jesse sure were eyeing her behind. A couple of self-aggrandizing lechers with a track record that would put J.F. Kennedy to shame. Slick Willy should be a marked sexual offender, any other citizen with his record would be wearing an ankle monitor.

I have been listening to her music since high school, but when I saw that POS Farrakhan in the pulpit at her funeral, there went fifty years of pleasant memories.

You should how little money was many ‘legally’. Ask Bill, how much did he steal from the people of Haiti?

For Clinton, or any other government official to meet with Farrakhan or his ilk is “COLLUSION”! Collusion to perform sedition and treason against America.
Now if the meetings took place on the ‘mother ship’ that would be a different thing.

The USA has long nurtured a bizarre double standards, it’s “okay” for certain groups to hate others, but not for other groups to do likewise.

Former AG Eric Holder, who says he might make a 2020 run for president was at funeral too. Debbie Stabenow was there and spoke.
It would have been very easy for Clinton, Holder or Stabenow to ask the family to ask Farrakhan to leave. Since they are Democrats (anti-Semites) they did not bother.

Bill Clinton? He’s old news. Let’s talk about how everyone was talking about Alex Jones, and him and free speech, and so many defending him. Well, I wonder if everyone would still defend him, if they knew he spent a little over an hour, being buddies with Farrakhan, in talking about a subject, they both are against, albeit in different ways! I have to admit, I listened to Jones, for a few years, but quit about a year ago, because it’s always the same ole, same ole….but when I saw this, I was glad I quit. I don’t support ANYONE who supports islam (and I’m sure I don’t have to tell the 109 reasons why).
The NOI (Nation Of Islam), appreciated this infidel Jones, so much, that they put the talk, on their home page!!
