Coalition of Black Churches Representing 28 Million Americans Demands MSNBC Fire Al Sharpton, Calls for Investigation into Kamala Harris Payments

2024-12-07

[THEGATEWAYPUNDIT] A powerful coalition of African American churches is calling for the suspension and investigation of MSNBC host civil rights hustler Al Sharpton
...Tawana Brawley's spiritual advisor...
, alleging that donations from Kamala Harris

launched her campaign on the “RuPaul’s Drag Race”
's campaign to Sharpton's National Action Network have compromised the integrity of the black Church and journalism.

*Snicker*

Last week, MSNBC admitted it was ''unaware'' that Vice President Kamala Harris's presidential campaign had paid $500,000 to Al Sharpton's National Action Network nonprofit ahead of a favorable interview with the Democratic nominee on October 20, just weeks before the election, according to Fox News.

After Harris's defeat to President-elect Donald Trump
...They hit him with slander, they impeached him twice. Nancy Pelosi tore up his State of the Union address on national TV. They stole an election and put his adherents in jail. They vilified him. They couldn't crucify him, so they shot him. Still, they can't keep him down...
, Federal Election Commission (FEC) filings revealed that the Harris campaign made two $250,000 donations to Sharpton's National Action Network in early September and October.

Despite the apparent conflict of interest, the MSNBC weekend host did not disclose the donations to viewers or to the network executives about the payments before or after the interview.

According to a report by the Washington Free Beacon, who first broke the story, Harris's donation was part of a larger $5.4 million spending spree aimed at boosting her favorability among Black and Latino groups — a strategy that, as we know, fell flat.

Now, the National Black Church Initiative (NBCI), representing 27.7 million churchgoers and 150,000 churches across the country, issued a scathing blurb demanding transparency about a reported $500,000 payment from Harris's campaign to Sharpton's organization.

The NBCI says the payment raises questions about the ethics of both Sharpton and MSNBC, where Sharpton is a prominent host.

Rev. Anthony Evans, President of the NBCI, described the situation as a ''moral stain'' on the black Church and called on Sharpton to provide full transparency regarding the funds.

#7 The fact they hired and keeps retaining this racialist grifter/murderer shows they're not a legitimate news org. As a DNC propaganda outlet they shouldn't have a seat at the WH Press Corps, nor should any Republicans do interviews to legitimize them

#6 Because victory has a thousand fathers. Failure is an orphan.

#5 It's taken them all this time to get wise to Al Sharpton? And why demand that MSNBC fire him? Why not just change the channel or, better yet, turn the damn TV off?

#1 The Democrat party ran and controlled by a bunch of old white people, can no longer count on the Black Voter, alive or dead.
