Shirley Jackson Lee and Reparations Group Urge Biden to Buy Black Vote With Reparations Commission
The New American ^ | April 26, 2024 | R. Cort Kirkwood

U.S. Representative Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) and advocates of slavery reparations are openly — and loudly — urging President Joe Biden to establish a commission that would dangle the prospect of free cash in front of black voters to help defeat GOP presidential opponent Donald Trump.

But the report in the Daily Mail about the latest Democratic scam doesn’t just show that Lee and her ilk have no trouble calling for what amounts to legalized theft.

It also shows that Democrats are terrified that Trump might defeat the physically and mentally declining president. Biden trails Trump in the RealClearPolitics (RCP) average of nationwide polls. But, more importantly, Trump leads Biden by substantial margins in six of the seven key battleground states.

The way to shore up support among blacks: Bribe them with reparations talk. The problem: The plan could backfire if non-black voters who oppose reparations turn out to vote for Trump.

The Plan

Lee and her gang “say Biden should bypass Congress and use his executive powers to create a slavery payouts panel to put him over the line against rival Donald Trump,” the Mail reported. Though Lee has been pushing reparations in Congress for years, the idea went nowhere, the Mail rightly noted, even after the George Floyd Hoax of 2020.

But a pro-reparations outfit called the Earn the Black Vote Collaborative claims that a poll of uncertain black voters in Michigan showed that some 58 percent might vote for Biden if he created a commission. Total votes for Biden: 150,000. And, the group’s news release said, Biden beat Trump in Michigan in 2020 by a slim 154,000 votes. He needs every vote he can get.

The headline is wrong.
Sheila, not Shirley.

Yes, and the moon is a planet, mostly made up of gases.

Go away, Sheila.

This website needs a new headline editor. The body of the article is correct.

Reparations paid in Human Sacrifice between 1861-1865.
Over 700,000 dead, tens of thousands gave arms, legs, eyes, homes destroyed, families destroyed.
We owe nothing.

The problem: The plan could backfire if non-black voters who oppose reparations turn out to vote for Trump.

And there has to be a significant fraction of the black population that HATES the obvious transparent pandering and vote-buying. It is a gross insult to all hard working, successful black Americans.

There is a price to pay for all actions including that separation from America. They won’t get to play the sympathy card.

At a Martin Luther King Day event (I went to 20 years of them) a speaker said he feared non-black people would soon be ignoring black people except for when they were providing entertainment and sports for them. “I pray that isn’t coming to pass” he said.

That is coming true.
