Rep. Wilson: Trump White House is 'full of white supremacists'
The Hill ^ | October 20, 2017 | Brandon Carter

Rep. Frederica Wilson (D-Fla.) said President Trump’s White House is “full of white supremacists” in a new interview Friday.

“The White House itself is full of white supremacists,” she told The New York Times.

It is the latest response in a four-day controversy over Trump's response to military families who have lost a loved one. Wilson earlier this week described a phone conversation she was listening in on between Trump and the widow of Army Sgt. La David Johnson, who was killed in Niger. The White House later accused Wilson of politicizing a "sacred" issue.

Wilson's interview is not the first time a critic has suggested racial bias plays a role in the controversy, although the congresswoman did not get more specific.

Wilson said she feels “very sorry” for White House chief of staff John Kelly after Kelly accused her of using a speech during a 2015 dedication of a new FBI building to take credit for securing the building’s funding.

“I feel very sorry for him because he feels such a need to lie on me and I’m not even his enemy,” Wilson told the newspaper. “I just can’t even imagine why he would fabricate something like that. That is absolutely insane. I’m just flabbergasted because it’s very easy to trace.”

Kelly called Wilson an “empty barrel” on Thursday in a rare appearance in the White House briefing room and criticized her for her speech at the 2015 event.

But video released Friday appears to show that Kelly was incorrect in his remarks about Wilson.

The White House defended Kelly on Friday, with White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders calling it “highly inappropriate” to criticize Kelly because of his record of military service.

"If you want to go after Gen. Kelly, that's up to you, but I think if you want to get into a debate with a four-star Marine general, I think that's something highly inappropriate,” Sanders said in a White House press briefing.

Wilson accused the White House of trying to “assassinate [her] character.”

“They are assassinating their own because everything they say is coming out and shown to be a lie,” she told the newspaper.

No, no we WANT this tranny ghetto pimp in a cowboy hat to keep talking!

As she has done from the very beginning, she’s exploiting and debasing the death of a soldier. She is a shameless loathsome human being, and she’s clearly LOVING all the attention she’s getting from the fake news media. Let the ghetto sow rant about “white supremacists”, she will alienate far more people than those who might sympathize with her.

But I have to say, I think the mother of this fallen soldier REALLY hates Trump and she’s fine with what the ghetto pimp is doing today.

There is a difference between being a white supremacist and recognizing the abject lack of value of particular individuals.

It says video released today contradicts Gen Kelly’s statement that said the rodeo clown took credit for funding that building. Is that true? Anyone hear of this? I have been waiting to see.

I hate to say it, but it really is astounding how deep the Dem bench is for stupid black congress critters. The stupidity is really, really strong.

Only a few intelligent ones come to mind - former Congressman JC Watts, Mia Love, former-Congressman Allen West.

It means that she’s trying to play the race card with less than zero proof.

What a disgrace our government has become. Trump would need at least 4 full terms to drain half of the swamp that is DC.

It just goes to show how racist these Democrats are. The very fact that they keep parading out embarrassing, moronic and idiotic black women on a day-to-day basis is beyond the description of a racist bigot.

Have they no shame?

It’s ok for negroes to make generalized statement, but not ok for white boys to make observations. Got it.

Whenever I see a photo of this tranny pimp in a cowboy hat, I hear “The Theme From Shaft” music playing.

What video was released that shows Kelly was “incorrect”? The it reads is he was incorrect saying she’s an empty barrel.
