Tommy Christopher Investigates: Is Wesley Lowery A Lying ‘Snowflake?’

The post was entitled “TheDC Investigates: Is WaPo’s Wesley Lowery Black?” It examined Lowery’s claim of blackness, versus a contradictory data point from an October traffic stop in Maryland. While Lowery implied that he was black in criticizing Politico’s lack of diversity, the police report from Lowery’s traffic stop told a different story:
The police report lists Lowery’s physical vitals — his height (5’9″) and weight (145 pounds) along with other standard information that included race. As you can see below, it reads: White, Caucasian, Asiatic Indian, and Arab.

Murdoch declared Egyptians are White and not tail was ruffled. I guess Republicans now determine who’s Black too.
