Fake 'Police Leaders' group may want to rethink Harris endorsement after her campaign donated money to defund the police groups

WASHINGTON, DC - Just weeks after the Fraternal Order of Police endorsed Donald Trump for president and a newly-formed organization of law enforcement political hacks endorsed Kamala Harris, Fox News is reporting that the Harris campaign cut multiple six-figure checks last month for left-leaning groups who support defunding the policed and who have supported “famed” anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan. 

The FOP's endorsement irked some with ties to law enforcement, particularly some of the US Capitol police officers who have gained fame by being outspoken critics of President Trump. However, given the news that Kamala Harris’s campaign supports those who wish to put police officers out of their jobs, the endorsement has been shown to be justified. Perhaps the “Police Leaders for Community Safety” may want to rethink their support for Harris. 

According to FEC filings released last week, the Harris campaign donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to several black advocacy groups involved in mobilizing black voters ahead of next week’s general election. 

One of those groups–Black Voters Matter Fund–received $150,000 from the Harris campaign on Sept. 19 and has repeatedly called for defunding the police and is also pushing for slavery reparations, Fox reported. 

“The answer to police violence against communities of color is not more money for police,” the group wrote in February 2023. “It’s time to defund the police and redirect those resources into building strong, healthy communities.” 

Meanwhile, in 2020, the group tweeted, “We are proud to be [a] partner in the #DemocracyFrontlinesFund, created to leverage millions of new dollars to fund black-led organizers fighting for free and fair elections, and working to defund prisons and police.” 

Yet another post read, “There are more than 3,000 sheriffs in the US, nearly all are elected. We are working to defund sheriffs and build voter power. Reimagining the system also comes with taking action!” 

The co-founder of that group, Latosha Brown, has frequently visited the Biden-Harris White House, and has repeatedly posted about the group’s push for reparations, and said in an X post in 2021 that she’s been working on the issue for nearly three decades. 

“We deserve to be compensated for the literal blood, sweat, and tears our ancestors were forced to put into this country,” the group posted in May. Last year, the group said reparations are “crucial for acknowledging past injustices and moving towards a more just and equitable future.” 

Harris has sometimes expressed support for reparations, a lightning rod issue that she has been avoiding since being installed as the Democrat nominee for president. 

Another anti-police group, Black Church PAC, received $150,000 from the Harris campaign last month. The group boasts several radical “religious leaders” on its board, and according to recent posts on social media, it partners with a defund the police group helping with “get out the vote” efforts in Georgia, Pennsylvania, and North Carolina. 

“We’re mobilizing 100K Strong: Knock for Change, Vote for Justice volunteers across GA, PA, and NC to knock on doors and have REAL conversations with REAL voters about the REAL issues that matter the most,” the group posted last week on X. 

Black Church PAC is partnering with Until Freedom, which was founded by “Women’s March” founders Tamika Mallory and Linda Sarsour, two unhinged leftist radicals. 

Until Freedom has repeatedly pushed to defund and abolish the police and sells a “defund the police” shirt on its website. 

Mallory has close ties to Farrakhan, an anti-Semite who has repeatedly called for the extermination of Jews and is a fierce opponent of the state of Israel. A number of pictures on her social media posts show her attending Nation of Islam events and praising Farrakhan. 

“One of the reasons why I support Kamala Harris is because I know about the things she was doing while she was in the Senate,” Mallory said on the “Breakfast Club” a couple of months back. 

Mallory defends Harris from those who claim she doesn’t support reparations, saying she’s heard Harris repeat “over and over again” that she indeed supports reparations. In 2019, Harris told The Root she believes “there has to be some form of reparations” for black Americans. 

Among the radical pastors on Black Church PAC’s board include Jamal Bryant, Frederick D. Haynes III, and Michael McBride, all of whom have either called for defunding the police, reparations, or who have praised Farrakhan, Fox News reported. 

McBride is the lead pastor of The Way Christian Church in Berkeley, California, and has repeatedly called for defunding the police. In a 2020 live stream, he said defunding the police “isn’t a slogan” but instead a “declaration of a future that we deserve.” 

“We do not deserve police departments to have 40, 50, 60% of the general funds of every single black majority, brown majority city in this country while we don’t have food, while we don’t have housing, while we don’t have equitable education, but we got an expanding police budget,” McBride ranted. 

“Yes, we want these [police] departments to be shrunk,” McBride continued. 

In a separate post, McBride suggested followers read an “article by @mearest @arthurrizer if you want an inside look at policing culture.” 

“My takeaway: How do you redeem this? You don’t…abolish and defund the police and reconstruct a new one…” 

McBride also advocates reparations, including one that would cost US taxpayers $15 trillion. 

Bryant hosted Harris at his church earlier in October. He has faced criticism for repeatedly singing Farrakhan’s praises and saying he was “humbled” to be in his presence and “honored” to host him. He has also attacked members of the LGBTQ community and said it was their “responsibility” to make gay people and other sinners “uncomfortable in [their] sin.” 

Bryant posted on Instagram in September that his walk from Baltimore to the White House with another pastor was a “monumental moment” and would “bring attention to the administration that black people deserve #reparations for 400 years of oppression.” 

“We are the only marginalized group in America that hasn’t been compensated,” Bryant wrote. “We went 42 miles because we never got 40 acres! Even if it’s not on the ballot, it needs to be on the agenda!”

The Harris campaign has also donated over $2,050,000 to the National Urban League, $300,000 to the Power Rising Action Fund, an “intergenerational power force of Black women from various sectors,” and $250,000 to the National Action Network, founded by Al Sharpton, an MSNBC “anchor” who has been closely tied to Farrakhan. 

In 2019, Harris appeared at a National Action Network convention, during which Sharpton asked her if she’d sign HR 40, a bill proposed by the late Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, that would form a committee to study reparations for descendants of slaves if it passed and reached her desk during her failed presidential run. 

“When I am elected president, I will sign that bill,” she said at the time. 

Ok, “Police Leaders for Community Safety.” The ball is in your court. How do you “police leaders” feel about the Harris campaign’s push to defund or eliminate the police you claim to lead? 

It looks like the rank and file officers, the ones on the street putting their lives on the line instead of worrying about getting a paper cut, were right to support the man who supports them.
