A United Nations watchdog has warned that “racist hate speech” used by President Donald Trump and other US politicians has fuelled human rights violations.
A report by the Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination (CERD), a UN-backed panel of independent experts, urged the US to respect international law and review its human rights policies.
It said the portrayal of migrants, refugees and asylum seekers “as criminals or as a burden by politicians and influential public figures at the highest level of the state party, particularly its president” may incite racial discrimination and hate crimes.
The White House dismissed the report, calling it “useless” and “biased”.
Does anyone really not understand yet?
Violence is the plan. Then use the violence as an excuse to “suspend” the Constitution.
And yes, I know that’s not legal, but with this gutless nutless brainless Congress? Who would stop him?
Is this headline from 2015?
If they did this and if others did this in 2015 we’d be an entirely different world.
They did. Trump constantly raved about how the media loved to hate him, which was true. Unfortunately, he had a disenfranchised base who saw this as the “elite” media controlling the narrative, which only served to embolden his racist excuses for why they felt disenfranchised.
Let me fix this and make it truthful for you BBC:
Trump’s immigration comments have incited hate crimes
Trump’s immigration comments are intentionally inciting hate crimes
Yeah, he has a billion dollar army out there committing hate crimes, there’s no “may” about it.
Do you mean $75 billion?
Even worse he explicitly ordered the immigration service to do them.
And that’s exactly what they want
Lol. This pedo felon racist has been inciting hate crimes for the last decade.
Why do “news” agencies keep catching onto things a decade too late?
The article is about what the UN said, not what media reported.
Trump’s insane comments are long past being shocking or surprising. I’m more interested in knowing if something is going to be done about it, and the answer is always no.
Has been for the past 10 years
Trump has a river rapids worth of turbulent priests
