   The same people, same people who criticized the CBC to no end and accused them of not doing a damn thing when PBO was President are suddenly supporting them now when it comes to AOC, Pressley, Omar and Tlaib. They talk out of both sides of their mouth. They suddenly forgot how the CBC supported Van Hollen over Donna Edwards. I sure in hell haven’t.

    In 2018, the ADOS founder was discussing Africans…saying Nigerians needed to "show their lineage" to "prove they didn't own slaves".
    This is a glimpse into the anti-African/anti-immigrant rhetoric where ADOS uses them as scapegoats for a systemic racist system.

    Trump rhetoric appears to be going off the rails (with an assist from Tucker Carlson at Fox.) This is how he intends to rally his supporters for 2020, just keep ramping up the racism. After all, that is all that binds them. But I’m still afraid that he (and Tucker Carlson) might be trying to get one or more of these Congresswomen killed.

    Hey @realDonaldTrump: What makes America exceptional is we are a nation of immigrants. As an immigrant who served on active duty, I am appalled you are telling us to "go back."

    I'm not going back. America is our home. And I will still be in Congress after your racist ass leaves. https://t.co/GHNkTlBEJr
