terrorist

President Barack Obama’s latest round of appointments includes the head
of a nonprofit that gave tens of thousands of dollars to a group run by a
convicted domestic terrorist.
Obama nominated Lisa Green Hall to the Treasury Department’s Community
Development Advisory Board last week. She is the president and CEO of the
nonprofit Calvert Foundation, which gave $30,000 over three years to the
Justice Through Music Project (JTMP).
Brett Kimberlin is the director of the JTMP, which “uses famous
musicians and bands to organize, educate, and activate young people about
the importance of civil rights, human rights, and voting,” according to its
website.
However, Kimberlin is also known as the “Speedway Bomber” for a series
of eight bombings he carried out in Speedway, Ind., in 1978. He is also a
convicted perjurer and has been involved in an alleged campaign of
intimidation against his online critics. |
