New Senior Dept. Of Interior Hire Vocally Hates Black Lives Matter, Defended Kenosha Shooter Online

[hatrack]

Ed. - The Hill - I know, sorry . . .

A recently appointed Interior Department official has called the Black Lives Matter movement racist and defended Kyle Rittenhouse, the teen charged with killing two people after opening fire at a protest in Kenosha, Wis. Jeremy Carl was appointed as Interior’s deputy assistant secretary of fish, wildlife and parks in early October, joining the department without any publicity from the agency. His appointment, as well as his history of controversial comments, was first reported by HuffPost.

Interior did not respond to multiple requests for comment on his appointment, instead referring The Hill to the White House, which also did not comment.

In July, Carl penned a piece arguing the Black Lives Matter movement “is not marxist, it’s racist.” “I don’t mean to pick on these individuals in particular; many of them are good patriots and conservatives who have explicitly denounced BLM’s racial politics,” Carl wrote on the American Greatness blog after referencing posts from a number of other conservatives.

“But at the same time, we must be clear: Marxism doesn’t define the Black Lives Matter movement—anti-white racism does.” On the same blog, he argued the peaceful protests over George Floyd’s killing were more harmful than the looting that followed. “[T]he non-violent protesters actually are far more damaging to the long-term fabric of our civil society than the rioters,” he wrote. “Though many of the protesters have entirely sincere intentions, they are dangerous because their protests — often using ritual humiliation of their adversaries — are based fundamentally on lies and slander about white people, about police, and about America.”
