Senator Kamala Harris announced that she is running for the Democratic Party’s nomination for President. Thought that it was coming….and so I wasn’t surprised to wake up on Sunday to this foolishness:
What is this foolishness?
She really is a simpleton.
Folks had her number, though.
Along those lines,Kim Foxx, the Cook County States Attorney that brought charges not only against the officer who murdered Laquan McDonald, but also the officers who falsified reports for said murderer.
Or, the young man who just won in Missouri, and fired the prosecutor who wouldn’t bring charges against Mike Brown’s executioner.
Or, I’m not supposed to be happy for the new DA in Philadelphia, while not Black, has different ideas when it comes to the Prison Industrial Complex…
Or, I’m not supposed to be pleased that the entire judiciary in Harris County, Texas- the state’s largest county, has had a complete turnaround in representation in November 2018…
Or, the same for Hinds County, Mississippi…
Folks get it twisted when they see Black people protesting the police. Like that means we’re against all laws, and have no use for police or prosecutors…
Not true. We have use for the law…we just want it to be applied EQUALLY….
EQUAL JUSTICE UNDER THE LAW…
That means something to the Black community.
So, these simple azz simon attacks on Senator Kamala Harris because she was a Prosecutor and Attorney General, as if that disqualifies her..
Um…no.
No, will she have to defend her record, absolutely. Have no problem with it.
But, her existence in those jobs IS NOT disqualifying.

Uh huh
Uh huh
No less than 2Pac said this about Black people and their relationship to law enforcement:
Oh, yeah, and this too:
I don’t know how Senator Harris will do in the Democratic Primaries, but this nonsense of her being a Prosecutor is supposed to get me and other Black folk to discount her….Nope.

Pay Black people reparations for their enslaved ancestors working and enduring untold sufferings for over 200 + years for free just like you’ll pay federal workers back pay for working for free. Time to pay up!
If someone at NBC had at least as much common sense as a jackass, they would NOT DO THIS.

There is a culture of racism in this country. The country was founded upon it. Genocide & Enslavement. That’s why a person like Trump can get into the Oval Office and wreak havoc on the country & the leaders allow it. They are elevating & glorifying racism

When Senator Sanders (Ind) puts a (Dem) behind his citation as a Senator, then I will listen to him and his supporters – until then, he belongs in same box as Jill Stein and Ralph Nader. Box of also rans who helped hand country to GOP dolts and shills for KKK, White Nationalists, Anti-Vaxers, Anti-woman, Pro-Russian and other dictator wannabes!

SG2,
Silverman at BJ has done a second post about the lies of Dolt45 and The Turtle on the Immigration Fake Ass Proposal:
And, the damages to DACA are broken down into a fraction. In essence, they want to end DACA, and replace it with something that everyone already in DACA wouldn’t be guaranteed of getting into the new program.
Nothing but a goddamned fraud!!
They are sooo disgusting

A tragedy in four acts:
-Army can’t meet recruiting goals
-Pentagon kills immigrant recruit program that drew 10,400+ enlistments
-Army tells NYT it needs to be more creative about recruiting
-Pentagon “pleased” its narrowing its own enlistment pool https://t.co/MUpUqwHJC5

Haley had a seafood project and her grandpa made Gumbo for her. He can cook too. He made a huge pot. Daughter is sending me some. Mmmmmmm…
Oh, yes. How I would love some of that seafood gumbo. And how about some bread pudding with whiskey sauce for dessert?
I’m waiting on it, Liza. Josh says it’s so good. Haley knew her grandpa could make it, so that’s why she said she’d bring Gumbo. LOL
Sounds delicious!!!
Gumbo sooo good. Chicken, sausage, shrimp, crabs……..
Silverman at BJ has a breakdown of how much Dolt45 and The Turtle LIED in the ‘compromise’ Dolt45 put forth.
Sigh….
The Senate Majority Leader and the President Lied About the Contents of Their Immigration and Border Security Compromise Bill
Dear SG2,
Please tweet out about this horrible bill. if you can add a link back to Silverman’s post where he breaks it down even further, I would appreciate it. It’s a damn lie. And, of course, the point is to prevent NON-WHITE IMMIGRATION.
DONE

Skimmed through the GOP’s funding/wall/temp DACA & TPS bill, and this will (and should) get zero votes from Democrats.
It makes it so Central American minors are ineligible for asylum if they don’t apply at a processing center (to be established) in Central America.
