Dem Rep. Jacobs: ‘Truth Commission’ Needed on Racial Injustice to Establish a Common Narrative
Breitbart ^ | February 15 2021 | Pam Key

Posted on 02/15/2021 10:49:24 AM PST by knighthawk

Representative Sara Jacobs (D-CA) on Sunday’s broadcast of CNN’s “Reliable Sources” that America needed a truth commission to establish a common narrative on racial injustice and white supremacy.

Jacobs said, “We know the violence on the 6th was predicated on the idea of the big lie, the fact that this election was stolen, despite the fact that Donald Trump’s own Department of Homeland Security says it was not. You need to be able to perpetuate that kind of lie in order to get the kinds of reactions that you did. I think we need to look at far-right media, which I know, Brian, you have been such a leader on calling out. Also, the role of social media and the whole ecosystem of social media where the kinds of information and the kinds of posts that get the biggest reactions are the ones prioritized by their algorithms.”

They couldn't identify Truth if it hit them in the face......they're entrenched in lies which has smothered the truth.

I’m thinking I should step away from the news.

It’s like a machinegun — a never-ending barrage of over-the-top, baseless pronouncements. America is awash in dangerous right-wing media sources, the violence in Washington on Jan 6 resulted in rivers of blood, anyone who dares to ask a question about the daily Democrat narrative is a dirty liar.

These people are insane. This is not about any sort of “disagreement” about politics. They mean to label us as sub-human so that they can kill us. This has become a lawless, totalitarian society where Truth is enemy #1.

I think I feel a Jack Nicholson meme about to arrive in the thread since it’s about seeking truth.

The basic narrative is Amerca bad, whitey bad. That was what the 1619 project was supposed to be about. It flopped so let’s have a “ truth” commission “! Some how we have to convince the most generous people in the world they are evil.

The big lie is that this was an insurrection. The big lie is that it was deadly. The only deadly part was when government forces shot and killed an unarmed military veteran. The big lies is that this faux Reichstag Fire is justification for the whatever Fascist tyranny the Democrats want to impose.

"Common narrative" sounds better in the original German.

Joe Biden raised “white supremacy” in his inaugural address. One doesn’t use inaugural addresses for cheap political posturing - rather grand stages like that are used to tell society (and your supporters) of your plans.

Truth Commission.

Those of us with above room temp IQ do not think that means what “they” think it means.

The “Truth Commission” would - quite naturally - be contained within the “Ministry of Truth”, administered by the most corrupt organization of all time - the DemocRAT party.

Hmmmm, Ministry of Truth. Where have I heard that before?

In keeping with your reasoned observations, don't you see just how valuable such a leftist
'truth commission' will be to rub our faces in the communist facts of our White guilt?

“There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public.

Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs-partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays.

Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.”

- Booker T. Washington, historical black educator and Presidential advisor

Barf. She is my new congressperson. She is a rich brat. Her grandfather is Irwin Jacobs, founder of Qualcomm Inc. She has a safe seat and she will be in Congress for the next 40 years.

Sounds familiar:

Quotes from "The Russian Revolution" by Alan Moorehead 1958

"… this was a predatory state which the Czar and a small group of noblemen and bureaucrats ruled for their own exclusive benefit...The ruling group owned all the wealth, enjoyed all the privileges and monopolized all the political power, and it did not intend to give up any of its prerogatives. It considered the peasants to be little better than animals..."

LOL - After they repeatedly refused additional security on Jan 6, so as not to interfere with their staged “insurrection” to pin on MAGA, they aren’t looking for a common narrative. They are looking for another way to sell their lies. But no one is buying.
