«Breaking News» Nation of Islam 'received $364,000 in contracts from the federal government to teach prison inmates'

The Nation of Islam has received hundreds of thousands of dollars from the federal government in the past decade to teach religion to prison inmates, it has been revealed.

Documents show that between fiscal years 2008 and 2019, the Chicago-based organization received at least $364,500 in contracts and awards from the U.S. Bureau of Prisons and the Justice Department (BOP), according to the Washington Examiner.

Nation of Islam is the Louis Farrakhan-led Muslim organization that espouses black nationalism.

BOP records indicate that the contracts were for ‘Nation of Islam religious services,’ ‘Nation of Islam spiritual guide services,’ ‘Nation of Islam study services,’ and other programs.

The Bureau of Prisons declined to offer any details about the contracts. It refused to say what materials were used by the Nation of Islam in its teachings.

‘Contracts are retained six years after final payment, so we are not able to provide details regarding the original contract on which the Nation of Islam began contracting with the Bureau of Prisons,’ a BOP spokesperson said.

Federal regulations stipulate that prisons ‘may contract with representatives of faith groups in the community to provide specific religious services which the chaplain cannot personally deliver due to, ordinarily, religious prescriptions or ecclesiastical constraints to which the chaplain adheres,’ the spokesperson said.

When asked about the reading material which was given to inmates, the spokesperson said that any material needs to ‘be previewed by [Bureau of Prison] staff, or any other staff-designated volunteers, prior to distribution’ and ‘materials shall not denigrate or disparage any other religion or religious groups.’

The Nation of Islam has been deemed a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Its leader, Farrakhan, has made numerous anti-Semitic and anti-white statements in recent years.

In October, video footage surfaced showing Farrakhan refer to Jews as ‘termites.’

‘White folks don't like Farrakhan,’ the Nation of Islam leader said during a sermon in Detroit.

‘Some of them respect me. To the members of the Jewish community that don’t like me, thank you very much for putting my name all over the planet because of your fear of what we represent.

‘I can go anywhere in the world and they've heard of Farrakhan. Thank you very much.

‘I'm not mad at you because you're so stupid,' Farrakhan continued.

‘So when they talk about Farrakhan, call me a hater, you do what they do, call me an anti-Semite.

‘Stop it, I’m anti-Termite.’

In May, Twitter stripped Farrakhan of his ‘blue check’ verification status after he gave a speech denouncing ‘Satanic Jews.’

‘I wonder, will you recognize Satan? I wonder if you will see the satanic Jew and the synagogue of Satan...because Satan has deceived the whole world,’ Farrakhan said.

House Rep. Peter King, a Republican from New York, said that taxpayer funding of the Nation of Islam was 'beyond the pale.' 

'Categorically, no group or entity or individual associated any way with Farrakhan or the Nation of Islam should receive any federal funding,' King said. 

'What Farrakhan preaches is hatred and anti-Semitism and racism, and to use any federal money for any group that’s he’s involved with that do any type of teaching or proselytizing is just wrong.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
