AG Holder accused of ‘stalling’ voter intimidation fringe-wing case in Philly 

A voter intimidation case dating to 2008 is allegedly being stonewalled by US Attorney General Eric Holder. Newsmax magazine said the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights has set an April 12 deadline for Holder to respond.

During the presidential election members of the New Black Panther Party for Self Defense “ were videotaped confronting a cameraman and brandishing a nightstick outside a polling place,” said the magazine.

The US Report covered the voter intimidation story when it happened.

One of the NBPPSD members was carrying a nightstick. A young man approached and asked the weapon-wielding member who he was with.

The response was darkly comedic. “Security,” said the nightstick owner.

Newsmax said, “According to the Commission, the men blocked access to the polls, harassed voters and poll workers, and hurled racial epithets. Police were called to the scene and the two men were ordered to leave.”

Videos of exchanges with the NBPPSD member were widely circulated via YouTube.

Dinosaur media sympathetic to President Barack Obama’s administration have largely ignored the story.

Obama’s AG is in fact following in the Clinton administration’s footsteps.

A case in Noxubee County, Mississippi was stonewalled despite overwhelming evidence of discrimination.

Writing in March, 2009, for National Review, Hans A. Von Spakovsky said, “[T]he Justice Department seems embarrassed about a recent judgment in its favor by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. U.S. v. Ike Brown is a major Voting Rights Act case involving intentional race-based discrimination by local officials in Noxubee County, Miss.”

Spakovsky’s article published shortly after Holder said the U.S. is a “nation of cowards,” because we don’t talk about race enough.

Dinosaur media largely ignored the Noxubee case too.

The Democrat Party routinely focuses on racial issues as a political device, successfully garnering most of the black vote and much of the Hispanic vote in the U.S.

The original Black Panthers group, not affiliated with the NBPPSD, condemned the intimidating actions in Philadelphia.

“The Anti-Defamation League says the New Black Panther Party for Self Defense is responsible for ’inflammatory bigotry,’ calling it ‘the largest organized anti-Semitic black militant group in America.’

In addition to allegations of anti-Semitism, actions in Philly suggest the group is a leftwing fringe group that is also anti-white.

Judicial Watch told Newsmax the case “smacks of a cover-up.”
