First, Pete; Now, repeat: WaPo publishes Al Sharpton is not a lifelong fighter for justice.
"Sharpton is unworthy of such praise, so much so that the decision to back him reflexively is a massive moral demerit. Calling Sharpton a lifelong fighter for “justice” ignores his history of race-baiting and deadly anti-Semitic incitement."
