BLM Says Black Communities Are Being ‘Terrorized’ More Under Biden Than They Were Under Trump

President 👤Joe Biden is allowing police to become more of a threat to black Americans than former President Donald Trump ever did, at least in one aspect, Black Lives Matter now claims.

A tweet posted Tuesday criticized Biden over federal rules allowing police agencies to receive surplus military equipment.

“Biden is currently sending more military equipment to our neighborhoods than Trump did. You read that right,” Black Lives Matter tweeted.

“Our communities are being terrorized at a greater rate than they had been under Trump,” the tweet said.

On its website, Black Lives Matter explained that it wants an end to the policy of allowing police departments to access surplus military equipment under what is known as the 1033 program.

“Over $7 billion has gone to the 🚓Law Enforcement agencies since its creation under the Clinton administration. Disappointingly enough, the flow of military equipment to police under the 1033 Program has accelerated under the Biden administration — and based on recent reporting, police might just receive even more military equipment under the Biden administration than they did with the Trump administration,” the website said.

“No responsible leader should be increasing the weapons police have access to — and if President Biden cares about the countless Black folks who showed up to put him in office, he would recognize that. If we want President Biden to take swift action before his 100th day in office (just 10 days from now), then we need a lot of voices speaking out right away.”
