    I fully expected this article to state that he’d legally changed his first name to “Doctor.”

    There is nothing remaining nor outstanding to debate about ... its over and the Anti-Umar rebels are defeated.

    DR UMAR JOHNSON - THE HIGHEST PAID LETHAL CONTRACT HIT MAN IN BLACK AMERICA.

    On the International front Iraqi forces backed by the United States have defeated Isis in the fight for Mosul.

    On the domestic home front grassroots anti Dr. Umar rebels make enough loud noise of accusing Dr. Umar Johnson of being a fraud, con man, liar and thief to get the attention of the academic elite.

    The academic elite backed by the anti-Umar rebels summons Dr. Umar Johnson before them to answer for the allegations put forth.

    Pro Umar Johnson loyalist, supporters and followers realizing at the last minute that this is a Kangaroo court and no doubt an ambush by the anti-Umar rebels to isolate and separate them from their leader.

    The meeting is set, time is of the essence and that they must devise a split second strategy to meet this threat and so what started out as $700,000 for a new school immediately got reallocated as $700,000 for a contract that the Pro-Umar forces put out on the anti-Umar rebels and their academic elite guard to silence them once and for all and so without one objection the Pro-Umar forces by defacto gave approval to pay Dr Umar Johnson $700,000 to carry out the contract.

    Dr. Umar Johnson arrived at the meeting and was seated in the hot seat at the table in a face to face sit down with the rebel backed academic elites. The rebels lead out man is Roland Martin along with his black academic elite sub committee that immediately lay siege upon Dr. Umar Johnson.

    Black Twitter and Face Book swarmed with the reminiscence of the Rosewood Forest as anti-Umar rebels hid behind phones, pads, laptops and computers watching with great excitement and anticipation in what was to be the day of reckoning for Dr. Umar Johnson when the world will finally see him indicted, exposed, and publicly humiliated as the fraud, crook, thief and liar they say he is .....

    HOWEVER .......

    It didn’t take long for the anti Umar rebels to get that sinking feeling as they watched and listened to their lead out man Roland Martin tremble, falter, stumble and constantly reiterate during what is suppose to be a blistering onslaught of hard, damning questioning resulting in confessions and explosive revelations.

    As Roland Martins interrogation got worse and worse he passed the baton to his elite cohorts but not before it became rapidly clear to the anti-Umar rebels that they may have made a miscalculation and fatal error to corner an Alpha male and it wasn’t long before everyone seated at the table also realized what the Pro-Umar forces already knew.

    The Pro-Umar forces knew that Dr.Umar Johnson is a skilled terminologist contract hit man with an exceptional linguistic surgical skill set and having been paid $700,000 Dr. Umar Johnson without hesitation, reservation or fail carried out the $700.000.

    Dr. Umar Johnson with lethal precision executed the anti-Umar rebel academic elite guard with linguistically unapologetic, blunt force trauma to the brain and left no doubt behind in the minds, souls and spirits of the Pro-Umar forces that the anti-Umar rebels academic elite guard has been effectively and definitively defeated.

    As Pro-Umar forces celebrate a decisive victory over the anti-Umar rebels still some Pro-Umar forces are continuing throughout social media to mop up small pockets of anti-Umar rebel resistance and hot spots.

    The Pro Umar forces victory over the anti-Umar rebels and their academic elite guard sends the message world wide that Dr. Umar Johnson is hands-off, above suspicion, beyond approach and they also made it understood that if Dr. Umar Johnson never answers another question about himself he has earned the money and with that ... one black soldier walks away.

    Not since the beloved Black Panther Bobbie Rush has black America seen such loyalty whereby no matter the cost ...... NO ONE DIRTIES UP THE MAN.

    I, for one, appreciate your transparency in admitting your error.

    But Dr Hotepenstein can take a short walk off a long cliff with his homophobia, misogyny, hypocrisy and grotesque narcissism. This man’s soul drippings are FEEDING off of the heightened emotions he provokes around him. You can literally see his beard get fuller with each racial epithet he throws in the direction of a black person who dares to disagree.

    I hope you keep covering his nonsense, because someone needs to.

    He has paternity issues and fucks strippers, so he can sit his ass down somewhere trying to tell people how to live. He could have 15 doctorates and that still wouldn’t be enough for me to think he was shit.

      “He has paternity issues and fucks strippers, so he can sit his ass down somewhere trying to tell people how to live. He could have 15 doctorates and that still wouldn’t be enough for me to think he was shit.”

      Simply having a degree does not inoculate anyone from being a simpleton and a con man.

      Donald Trump has a Wharton degree and Jeff Sessions has a law degree.

      Jill Stein is an actual physician.

      None of these people are bright or worth devoting ones self to in the least and neither is Umar.

    I am NOT trying to be obtuse, but I have to ask... Abdullah-Johnson was apparently claiming a doctorate as far back as 2007. The issue of his credentials has been an open question for awhile now and HE has never produced a copy of his diploma (which should be easy, right?). He has NEVER offered a picture of him in PsyD raiment at his commencement (which should be pretty easy, right?). His doctoral paper is NOT posted online and he has never offered it for sale. UMAR JOHNSON has never offered his doctoral thesis for sale... and the paper’s title is directly pointed at the work he does “in the community.”

    Suits is a TV show about two guys sharing a professional degree (I think... I’ve never watched the show). It’s entering its seventh season.

    Your report confirms that A PERSON named Umar Johnson (not Abdullah-Johnson) received a degree from PCOM. Stipulated. I still don’t understand why he claimed to have not renewed his PhD (or PsyD) certification. I still don’t understand why he always hems and haws instead of taking a selfie with his diploma... Hell, he could have Photoshopped one by now. I still don’t know why that thesis hasn’t been posted to quiet the “haters.”

    I can continue to dislike this clown, even if he did finish a doctorate, but I would LOVE to hear from one of his advisory team confirming that THE Umar in question is the Umar that THEY worked with.

      That is EXACTLY my thoughts. This doesn’t prove that HE received his doctorate, nor does it prove HIS certifications. We are still at the same place we were when the mention of the dissertation was still on the school’s website.

    With the high profile that Johnson has now, there’s no excuse for him to not follow-through on his promises. Either raise the money, build/create the school, or don’t. Do the reverse Oprah. Find some wealthy African financiers. Find some experienced fundraisers and grant writers. Build a team of like-minded people to facilitate this endeavor. It can’t boil down to just one guy. have a public plan and proposal online for people to look at in detail so that they can make a more informed decision on if they want to get involved.

    I guess I would put more stock in that single page confirmation... if there were a BIRTHDATE. This document LITERALLY has five different names on it... and nothing that links anything back to the same person. I know you couldn’t get his social from here, but over the course of two? years, he used FIVE different permutations of names? How, Sway?

    The Institution’s website says a degree was awarded to: Umar R. Abdullah-Johnson. That is one name that does not appear on the degree verification form (and there are spaces for middle names/initials). Actually, the form says a degree was awarded to Umar Johnson which is no small discrepancy.

    At the end of the day, the ACTUAL proof would be Jermaine Umar R. Ifatunde Abdullah Johnson Shoemake releasing the document for which “he” earned the degree. Wouldn’t that have been the simplest solution from DAY ONE? It’s pretty odd that the paper isn’t available when so many others are.

    His advisors are listed on the page. Can no one track them down? I would find the testimony of an ACTUAL human who was part of the process a LOT more credible than an online print out. But that’s just me.

    Michael, the mere fact that you had to go through all of that just makes him even more of a snake oil salesman. It should not be that difficult to get someone’s educational background, especially if they have even tangential involvement in government affairs.

    When we ask for receipts, provide em or face the scrutiny. ESPECIALLY when you say you want to help our black boys. That’s where I had my biggest issue with him at. As someone who is an educator, I got hired on the strength of my educational background and personality in dealing with our toughest children (special needs). And that’s just with a bachelor’s degree. He should have been held to the highest standard, no doubt.
