Biden began his remarks by referring to a speech made on the Senate floor by Sen. Howell Heflin (D-Ala.), who was speaking in support of efforts by Sen. [[Carol Moseley Braun]] (D-Ill.) to deny renewal of a Confederate flag design patent to the UDC.

===Defund the Police money laundering scam===
:{{See also|Defund the Police|Democrat urban issues}}
Raheem Kassam and Gatewaypundit exposed Black Lives Matter as a [[money laundering]] scheme for the [[Democratic National Committee]].<ref>https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/06/exclusive-donations-including-international-funding-blacklivesmatter-com-go-directly-dnc-money-laundering/</ref> On the BLM homepage, which features a “[[Defund The Police]]” petition front and center, if a user chooses to donate, they’re rerouted to a site hosted by [[ActBlue]], the [[DNC]]'s official payment portal.<ref>https://www.opensecrets.org/pacs/expenditures.php?cmte=C00401224&cycle=2020</ref> ActBlue claims to be tax exempt organization and all donations to it are tax-deductable. The terms and conditions also link to ActBlue and mention “Campaign Finance Laws”.<ref>https://secure.actblue.com/content/fineprint</ref> [[Joe Biden]] is a top beneficiary of the ActBlue’s fundraising efforts.<ref>https://thenationalpulse.com/politics/biden-black-lives-matter-defund-the-police/</ref>
ActBlue contributions comprise 99.64 percent of all funds raised for the “[[Biden for President]]” entity and the total is nearly 773 times greater than the group with the second-highest donation sum. As of May 21, 2020, the organization has donated $119,253,857 to the “Biden for President” effort.<ref>https://www.opensecrets.org/pacs/expenditures.php?cmte=c00401224&cycle=2020</ref>
Violent crime - particularly shootings and homicides - spiked across major U.S. cities in what one law professor dubbed the "[[DFL riots|Minneapolis effect]]." Paul Cassell, a professor at S.J. Quinney College of Law at the University of Utah, explained the phenomenon in a research paper titled ''"Explaining the Recent Homicide Spikes in U.S. Cities: The 'Minneapolis Effect' and the Decline in Proactive Policing."''
{{quotebox-float|"Recently, major cities across the country have suffered dramatic spikes in [[homicide]]s. These spikes are remarkably large, suddenly appearing and widespread. At this rate, 2020 will easily be the deadliest year in [[America]] for gun-related homicides since at least 1999, while most other major crime categories are trending stable or slightly downward."}}
Cities like [[Chicago]], [[New York City]], [[Philadelphia]], [[Milwaukee]] and [[Detroit]] have seen spikes in homicides, aggravated assault and gun assaults this year, according to a July study by the nonpartisan National Commission on COVID-19 and Criminal Justice (NCCCJ).<ref>https://www.foxnews.com/politics/crime-spike-minneapolis-effect-police-cuts</ref> Cassell said the end result is 710 additional homicides and 2,800 more shootings in the U.S. And the professor attributes “several hundred” of the deaths directly to the war on police.

{{quotebox-float|“My estimates are that several hundred additional victims were murdered because of a reduction in policing. There are very significant trade-offs that need to be considered here that have truly life-threatening implications if they’re not handled carefully.”}}
With cities like New York City, moving to defund police by cutting their budgets, or otherwise redirecting funding to social services, this is having an impact as well.
{{quotebox-float|“In the wake of the antipolice protests surrounding George Floyd’s death, less policing has occurred,” he wrote, saying “law enforcement capabilities have been diminished by reduced funding and other setbacks (such as increased retirements due to demoralization).”<ref>https://www.bizpacreview.com/2020/09/30/us-sees-710-additional-homicides-and-2800-more-shootings-attributed-to-minneapolis-effect-978986</ref>}}
