Al Sharpton blasted for video showing private jet ahead of Minneapolis visit

The Rev. Al Sharpton was roasted online for posting a tone-deaf video showing him strolling to a private jet for a flight to Minneapolis to join the family of George Floyd at the conclusion of ex-cop Derek Chauvin’s trial.

“Headed to Minneapolis to stand with the Floyd family as closing arguments are set to be made today,” Sharpton, founder of the National Action Network, wrote about 7:20 a.m. Monday.

During a press conference in Times Square last week, the 66-year-old civil rights activist and MSNBC host said Tyler Perry had offered him his private jet for the flight.

He said he asked Gwen Carr — the mother of Eric Garner, who died in police custody on Staten Island in 2014 — to join him on the trip.

But Sharpton was soon lambasted online by social media users who criticized his out-of-touch post.

  1. Sharpton gets a private jet to rush to the side of Floyd’s family but still has never paid his taxes. The rest of this country pays taxes, and don’t race to be seen as race baiters. He is like a dog that chases cars.

  2. Why is this cat have Rev in his title? Where is his church? Sixty six year of age. Looks like eighty six, been around running his mouth even longer.

  3. Al Sharpton does nothing for nothing if you know what I mean. $$$$$$$ I wonder how much of that $27 million he scammed out of this family that the taxpayers gave them.
