Schumer Under Fire for Lack of Diversity on Senate Staff

Senate Democratic leader Charles Schumer is getting hit with friendly fire over the lack of diversity in Senate staffers from a veteran black New York party activist with ties to Gov. Cuomo and Al Sharpton.

Charlie King, former executive director of the New York State Democratic Party, plans to stand outside Schumer’s D.C. office to protest the under-representation of minorities employed in top staff positions by Senate Democrats.

King said he’s holding the one-man vigil in honor of civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King.

Has anyone seen Jesse Jackson recently?

No, not the one in prison.

As I have posted before, the Democrat Party will become the party of minorities ONLY within a short time. Whites, even very liberal ones, need not apply.....................

“Chuck, y’all ain’t got enough tokens! Pay my people!”

What about merit-based hiring? Leave skin color and ancestry out of it.

Senator Scott should be sending people to protest outside Schumer’s office.

Any efforts to correct this lack of “diversity” wouldn’t matter because the left’s version of diversity ends at the mere cosmetic. There is no philosophical or political diversity on the left.

In addition, I’ve got more bad news for them.

Trump is going to improve the black inner city conditions dramatically over the next four years.

The solid lock on Blacks is about to crumble to a certain extent.

The crime (illegal alien) element removed from the Hispanic communities, will have the same effect there.

Do you suppose anyone is checking the diversity in staffing of any of the senators or representatives, who are non-Caucasian? Do they have some kind of quota/diversity requirement? Just wondrin’....

Oh Chucky...before you open your big, fat mouth, you might want to clean your own house beforehand. Attorney General Sessions will have to look into your discriminating ways.

Well, it may be that his staff is NOT all old white, bald, chubby, male jews.

It may be that there are mirrors everywhere in his office.

Democrat politicians in general are racist be they black or white or asian or whatever Hispanic is. They group together such as The Black caucus, Hispanic caucus, the KKK....
