Holder Pushing to Oust Ferguson Police Chief?

It would appear that unnamed Obama administration officials, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, and their media cheerleaders have coordinated a narrative with regard to the Ferguson, MO Police Department. According to CNN, “government officials familiar with the ongoing discussions between local, state and federal officials” are saying Police Chief Thomas Jackson is expected to step down “as part of the effort by city officials to reform the Police Department.” The proverbial fly in the ointment? Jackson and Mayor James Knowles deny any such plan exists.

“Nobody in my chain of command has asked me to resign, nor have I been terminated,” said Jackson in a phone call with the news network. Knowles affirmed that statement and dismissed the notion that pressure was brought to bear by the feds. “People have been saying that for months, I mean for him to step down, Knowles explained. “But we’ve stood by him this entire time. So there is no change on that.”

He too is trying desperately to keep Ferguson in the spotlight.He must not realize that we know he's keeping it going.He resigned from his post for a reason.He and Obama both concurred that he could inflame racial tensions more effectively and with less attention once he was no longer AG.Just another reason why 2016 can't arrive quickly enough.

Holder, Sharpton, and Jackson should be indicted for inciting a Riot, criminal negligence, resulting in the injury of someone, (all the people that got beaten because of the race baiting).

Racism is alive and strong thanks to Holder, Obama and Sharpton.

Holder will make racial issues his focal point in private practice unless he resumes in another government position.Either way racism will be his mission in life.
