MLK and the FBI

The mafia branches of the US government target people who threaten their power. The FBI began its persecution of Dr. King back in the fifties when he was involved with the Montgomery bus boycott. Hoover wanted to silence him calling MLK "the most notorious liar in the country."

Hoover, who headed the FBI for decades, obsessively despised King on a deeply personal level. He kept files on the civil rights leader in which he'd scribble hateful comments on memos he received about King, apparently for no purpose other than his own gratification and catharsis. On a memo about King receiving the St. Francis peace medal from the Catholic Church, he wrote "This is disgusting." On the news of King's meeting with the pope, he scribbled, "I am amazed that the Pope gave an audience to such a degenerate."

While you were probably distracted by MSM nonsense, a new study came out showing that the consensus believes that MFA would cost less than the current system.

This “body language expert” also says Bernie gave Warren the “cold shoulder, he doesn’t turn to her” when he actually stuck his hand out to shake her hand. pic.twitter.com/HrMHl6pcTf
