Dem Rep. Tlaib to Pelosi: "Acknowledge The Fact That We Are Women Of Color"
RCP Video ^ | 7-16-2019 | Ian Schwartz

Posted on 07/17/2019 6:03:57 AM PDT by Sir Napsalot

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) said they would be willing to meet face to face with Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi to work out differences in an interview with 'CBS This Morning' host Gayle King....

"She has every right to sit down with her in any moment, in any time, with any of us. She is speaker of the House. She can ask for a meeting to sit down with us for clarification," she (Rashida Tlaib) said. "Acknowledge the fact that we are women of color, so when you do single us out, be aware of that and what you're doing, especially because some of us are getting death threats, because some of us are being singled out in many ways because of our backgrounds, because of our experiences and so forth."

The race war is already very much in progress. Only one side is really fighting, though.

That was done in South Africa and other countries over there.
White farmers were displaced and the people of color stole their land and farms.

A few short years later, the population was starving.

Rashida Tlaibis an Arab, Arabs are Caucasians. AOC is a Hispanic. Hispanic is not a race. Neither of them are colored people.

Oh, no one doubts their motives. And Trump handed what they wanted to them—it completely destroys Pelosi’s grip on power. It was brilliant.

But, Pelosi now needs to consolidate her position—and that means minimizing their (the “Squad’s”) role in the party.

She has to acknowledge them, but she needs help from the rank and file to get them under control.

The Squad (which is a silly name)is the “Trump” of their side: Outrageous, disruptive, and they are not following the traditional route to power.

This is hilarious to watch: Expose them, shine light on them, and show the rest of the country what these young fools want to do to them.

Of course.

That would be like saying French is a race.

Or German is a race.

Actually, that one is bad example, I think the Germans may believe that they are a race, or at least they did.

Is it any wonder that today’s progressives, lieberals and miscreants would blend in perfectly on that ST planet!?
