Republican presidential candidate Larry Elder said Monday that MSNBC host Al Sharpton no longer held the title of “biggest race card hustler,” citing President Joe Biden’s recent remarks at Howard University.
Biden claimed white supremacy was “the most dangerous terrorist threat to our homeland” during his remarks at the May 13 commencement at Howard University. The president also invoked the Jan. 6, 2021 riot at the Capitol building, when supporters of former President Donald Trump stormed the building and delayed the certification of the 2020 election for several hours.
“I used to think Al Sharpton was the biggest race card hustler in America,” Elder told “Fox News Tonight” host Lawrence Jones. “I no longer think that now. It’s Joe Biden. Joe Biden goes to Howard and says the biggest threat to the homeland is white supremacy. Are you kidding me?”
“The Anti-Defamation League keeps track of how many people are killed by extremists of any race,” Elder said. “Last year 25. In 2020, there were 11,000 black homicide victims, almost all killed by other blacks and Joe Biden has been lying about his civil rights record for decades.”
Biden has claimed that Trump and his supporters are threats to democracy and attacked them multiple times during his presidency. His rhetoric escalated after the Aug. 8 FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago, the Florida estate owned by Trump, as part of an investigation into allegations the documents were improperly removed from the White House when Trump left office in January 2021.
Biden received four “Pinnochios” from Washington Post fact checker Glenn Kessler in January 2022 after he claimed he was arrested during the civil rights movement. He also opposed busing, a controversial policy in which white students were taken to schools in black neighborhoods and black students to schools in white neighborhoods, in a 1977 press conference, during which he claimed that it “set the civil rights movement in America further back.”

Independent Journalism Is Dying
Ever since President Trump’s miraculous victory, we’ve heard an incessant drumbeat about how legacy media is dying. This is true. The people have awakened to the reality that they’re being lied to by the self-proclaimed “Arbiters of Truth” for the sake of political expediency, corporate self-protection, and globalist ambitions.
But even as independent journalism rises to fill the void left by legacy media, there is still a huge challenge. Those at the top of independent media like Joe Rogan, Dan Bongino, and Tucker Carlson are thriving and rightly so. They have earned their audience and the financial rewards that come from it. They’ve taken risks and worked hard to get to where they are.
For “the rest of us,” legacy media and their proxies are making it exceptionally difficult to survive, let alone thrive. They still have a stranglehold over the “fact checkers” who have a dramatic impact on readership and viewership. YouTube, Facebook, and Google still stifle us. The freer speech platforms like Rumble and 𝕏 can only reward so many of their popular content creators. For independent journalists on the outside looking in, our only recourse is to rely on affiliates and sponsors.
But even as it seems nearly impossible to make a living, there are blessings that should not be disregarded. By highlighting strong sponsors who share our America First worldview, we have been able to make lifelong connections and even a bit of revenue to help us along. This is why we enjoy symbiotic relationships with companies like MyPillow, Jase Medical, and Promised Grounds. We help them with our recommendations and they reward us with money when our audience buys from them.
The same can be said about our preparedness sponsor, Prepper All-Naturals. Their long-term storage beef has a 25-year shelf life and is made with one ingredient: All-American Beef.
Even our faith-driven precious metals sponsor helps us tremendously while also helping Americans protect their life’s savings. We are blessed to work with them.
Independent media is the future. In many ways, that future is already here. While the phrase, “the more the merrier,” does not apply to this business because there are still some bad actors in the independent media field, there are many great ones that do not get nearly enough attention. We hope to change that one content creator at a time.
Thank you and God Bless,
JD Rucker
