A Maryland man's public threat to "purge" and "kill all the white people" in his town has landed him behind bars, police said.

Carlos Anthony Hollins, 20, was arrested Wednesday after the La Plata Police Department says he urged people to 'kill all the white people' on his Twitter page.

Carlos Anthony Hollins, 20, allegedly shot off his racist threat to the town of La Plata on Twitter Wednesday while including the hashtag: "BlackLivesMatter."

"I’M NOT GONNA STAND FOR THIS NO. MORE,” Hollins, who is black, allegedly tweeted. "TONIGHT WE PURGE! KILL ALL THE WHITE PPL IN THE TOWN OF LA PLATA.”

Hollins was arrested at his home in neighboring Waldorf, Md., about 25 miles south of Washington, D.C., and charged with threats of mass violence.

Out of caution, La Plata's Police Department said they’ve added extra officers to patrol the area.

Francis, meanwhile, will use his address to Congress to call for bipartisanship (aka Republican capitulation)...

The Department of Justice has accused a business of discrimination due to the company requiring employees to show proof of citizenship for employment.

The DOJ claims that Nebraska Beef Ltd., a Nebraska-based meat packing company, “required non-U.S. citizens, but not similarly-situated U.S. citizens, to present specific documentary proof of their immigration status to verify their employment eligibility.”

After receiving pressure from the government, Nebraska Beef agreed to pay $200,000 in a civil penalty settlement and said they will establish an uncapped back pay fund for people who lost wages because they could not prove they are in the country legally.

The settlement also requires the business to undergo compliance monitoring for two years, train employees on the anti-discrimination provision within the Immigration and Nationality Act, and to revise policies within its office.

Judicial Watch reports:

The DOJ’s Office of Special Counsel for Immigration-Related Unfair Employment Practices objected to non-U.S. citizens being “targeted” because of their citizenship status. “The department’s investigation found that the company required non-U.S. citizens, but not...
