The idiot trump has reestablished open Nazism, bigotry, xenophobia, homophobia, and racial hatred as acceptable behavior here in the United States. And, in his speech during his visit to the U.K. the idiot trump tried to spread his poison condemning immigration into Europe.
Understanding this to be true, it is surprising that after nearly 63 years, the idiot trumpās attorney general, Jeff Sessions, would reopen the case of Emmett Till, a 14-year-old black teenager lynched in 1955.
The murder occurred in Money, Mississippi, after Till reportedly whistled at Carolyn Donham, a white woman while both were in a store. Despite the fact that two white men were charged, and later acquitted, no one was ever convicted in his death. Years later, both men confessed to the crime in a paid newspaper interview.
In January 2017, the book āThe Blood of Emmett Tillā by Timothy B. Tyson was published. In his book, Tyson quotes a 2008 interview in which Donham [the white woman] says that she lied when she testified that the black teen grabbed her, whistled and made sexual advances in a Mississippi store six decades ago. Apparently, after five decades, Donham felt bad that her false testimony about being accosted and lewd sexual advances toward her cost Till his life. According to Tysonās book, she reportedly said, āNothing that boy did could ever justify what happened to him.ā Itās too bad, she didnāt have a conscience back in 1955 when Tillās brutal murder could have been prevented.
The bookās author told reporters that he was contacted by the FBI weeks after his book was published in January 2017, and he furnished them interview recordings and other research materials. Tyson has little hope that his research alone could lead to new charges, but with evidence already in investigatorsā possession, could provide the leads necessary to do so.
Naturally, it was not Sessionsā plan to reopen the case, but with the new information from Tysonās book, Tillās family gained the power to pressure Sessions onto making a decision on an issue he would have much preferred to ignore.
As the world watches the idiot trumpās ādeplorablesā push this nationās sense of honor lower and lower, to see the Till family receive some measure of justice so many years after young Emmetās death would be gratifying to rational and honorable Americans.
However, the idiot trumpās deplorables will complain and assert any further investigation and prosecution would be a waste of time and money. Their responses to this thread will prove this.

During his months of violent campaign rhetoric, at certain rallies the idiot trump encouraged audience members to physically attack peaceful protesters who were present. The idiot trumpās inflammatory bombast has emboldened white supremacist groups like the Ku Klux Klan and Nazi organizations to violently demonstrate their racism and bigotry. This newfound freedom the idiot trump has handed to Nazis here in the U.S. inspired vandals to destroy a marker in Money, Mississippi memorializing slain teenager Emmett Till.
This occurred roughly three months before the idiot trumpās defense of white supremacism inspired James Alex Fields Jr. to plow his car into a crowd of peace activists in Charlottesville, Virginia, killing one person and injuring nineteen. Fields had long sympathized with Nazi views, and only hours before had been a participant with other groups of white supremacists at a āUnite the Rightā rally in a nearby park. A rally condoned by the idiot trump.
Yes, the words and actions by idiot trump and his deplorables are destroying the United Statesā standing as a world leader in human rights, and proving to our former allies the United States cannot be trusted to honor treaty obligations that were established many decades ago.
