Rep. Brooks: Dems' 'war on whites' behind some criticism of Sessions
CNN Politics ^ | January 11, 2017 | Chris Massie

Alabama Rep. Mo Brooks said in a radio interview on Tuesday that criticism of Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions, who is Donald Trump's pick to be attorney general, is part of an ongoing "war on whites" by Democrats.

"It's really about political power and racial division and what I've referred to on occasion as the 'war on whites.' They are trying to motivate the African-American vote to vote-bloc for Democrats by using every 'Republican is a racist' tool that they can envision," the Republican congressman said on "The Morning Show With Toni & Gary" on WBHP 800 Alabama radio. "Even if they have to lie about it."

Brooks was responding to a question about criticism of Sessions' record on civil rights, which has come under renewed scrutiny as he seeks confirmation to head the Justice Department. Sessions was denied a federal judgeship in 1986 in part because of comments he allegedly made about organizations like the NAACP and the American Civil Liberties Union. Sessions, a Republican, also criticized the 1965 Voting Rights Act as "intrusive" in the 1980s....

Been saying exactly what you said Mo (war on whites) for over a decade. Got called a hater and “racist” then, and I expect more of the same now.

He’s right. I’m an American and Freeper of color and I see it as plain as day. Whites are being demonized by liberals to stoke the flame of hate especially with blacks and Hispanics. This is utterly shameless on the Democrats part, but why should we be surprised. The history of that party is all about promoting hate to get votes!

This is a time for everyone to get together. Or I feel this nation will suffer more than anyone can know. Anarchy is way worse than either party and that seems like where we’re headed.

These communist animals have enlisted American blacks and illegal aliens as a shock troop to destabilize and destroy the USA from within.

Before Trump came on the scene, it was a given that whites would be a minority due to the Immigration Act of 1965, which abolished quotas, and open borders.

This is a GODDAMNED WAR, and only one side was fighting until now.

In 2 minutes on CNN (the FAKE NEWS NETWORK), a black card carrying communist will be given an hour to spew anti-white anti-American, anti-capitalist propaganda, his name is Van Jones and he was appointed by the black communist HUSSEIN OBAMA to a government position until he was exposed.

FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT.

NEVER GIVE IN.

COMMUNISTS OUT!!!

AMERICA FIRST!!!!

Smart man. He understands the rotten neo-Nazi, racist democrat party.

The war on whites is “an inconvenient truth.”

I recall my first exposure to this Leftwing agenda in the early 80s — I was entering the lower-level of the GW bridge, NJ bound while listening to Rush discuss the “Angry White Male” phenomenon.

AWM was unfortunately an effective campaign that ultimately led to the general ‘War on Whites’ we’re seeing today courtesy of the Democrat Thug Party.

I was wondering if Mo would be selected to replace Sessions in the senate. He is my congress man, I also used him as a lawyer to close refinance by in the 80s. Very thorough.

They’re the same scummy party from the Civil War era and that doesn’t change now that it’s switched to going after white people.
