Credibility Alert

Tweet from Joy Reid, MSNBC 7pm Anchor


Of course House progressives could easily say to Joe Manchin & Kyrsten Sinema: fine. Good luck in your midterm elections with zero infrastructure bills to show because if the big bill dies, yours does too. Those House seats are likely safer than WV & AZ.

Interesting. Going back to where your ancestors were sold into slavery by other blacks.

Some folks get it, though: https://www.pri.org/stories/2019-08-20/willful-amnesia-how-africans-forgot-and-remembered-their-role-slave-trade

Complicated stuff, and worth examining, when teaching world history.

You ever hear of capitalism?

Supply and demand, ya dig?

No demand no supply.


Europeans created the demand for slave labor in the New World.

AUKUS  new alliance.
ScoMo, Boris, and Joe.
I like it.
ScoMo and Joe bumped elbows and were all smiles when they met yesterday.

Why don't you post a direct quote from somebody, anybody, who has said that  those who are not getting vaccinated are "solely...white Trump backers."


Mission accomplished!!!!

Yep.  Haven't seen anyone make that claim. Just another strawman. The more accurate claim is that Trump followers have adopted the anti-vax liturgy in greater proportions than other groups/factions.  And they went so far as to loudly boo Trump at a rally when he suggested they should get vaxxed.  When you can get a Trumper to boo Trump, you've got a seriously potent belief system there.

Deadline Whitehouse - MSNBC

Every day
How about that quote: Those who are not getting vaccinated are "solely...white Trump backers."  You are what's known, in the vernacular, as liar.

You piss and moan everyday about CNN's misleading headlines and then you posts that MSNBC states (and you quote them) that non-vaxed are solely white Trump supporters.  Don't ever change, Kid.

Anybody who doesn't believe that Republicans are going to regain control of Congress next election is using the wish to be the father of the thought.

Not a good sign for Democrats and the 2022 election.

Biden got walloped in the Iowa primary (caucuses) by Bernie and Mayor Pete and he got thumped by Trump in the general.

Iowa is not a good representation of the Democratic Party

Neither is Georgia.

Yeah.

That is why Biden won Georgia and Georgia elected two democrats to the Senate one who is Jewish and the other a Black Preacher

It seems you have a small tent Democratic Party in mind.

That's not the Democratic Party.

Ever hear of revisionist history? If you took the time to listen to that radio piece, you'd have heard the tale of the willful West African involvement in the slave trade.

Many West Africans were only too happy to comply with that demand, and many african Americans don't like to acknowledge that fact. Just like many Germans cooperated with Hitler, and many Germans don't like to discuss Herr Schickelgrubber today.

Denial ain't just a river that flows north through that continent, ya dig?

Default mechanism of claiming racism kicks in. Maybe josh or Steve the lawyer from AZ is advising this group.

A small tent?

Compared to the cisgendered White male party of the GOP?

Why do you believe Republicans have such a good chance to get control back?
