“The Impact Was Devastating”: Chicago’s Cross-Burning Was Set by Liberal, Anti-Trump Protester
19th June 2026
After the Southern Poverty Law Center scandal of actually funding and encouraging racist protests, it appears that at least one individual has created his own orchestrated racist incident.
In Chicago (where Jussie Smollett committed his infamous racist hoax), a burning cross was denounced by Mayor Brandon Johnson as a sign of the racism in society.
Johnson, however, refused to address the fact that the cross burning was actually the work of an anti-Trump liberal student.
University of Illinois senior Merlin Lu said it was never intended as a racist symbol, but the question is whether it could still be charged as a hate crime.
My, what a surprise. Aren’t you surprised? I’m sure surprised.
