Women’s rights activists and allied Democrats are growing increasingly vocal about what they call the unfair targeting of women and people of color nominated by Joe Biden to top posts in his administration.

Their fears had been bubbling for weeks, as Biden’s nominees of color came under sharp attack from conservative groups or saw their nominations delayed or opposed in greater numbers. But the worries burst out into the open over the weekend as Neera Tanden’s nomination to lead the Office of Management and Budget neared defeat at the hands of a Democrat.

“the unfair targeting of women and people of color nominated by Joe Biden to top posts in his administration.”

It’s unfair to point out that they are idiots and totally unqualified for the posts? They don’t get a free pass simply because of their gender and skin color? They don’t want to compete on their qualifications, only on the leftist group hierarchy?

Enough of the free rides for every leftist imbecile who comes down the path.

LOL! The double standard, if there is one to begin with, is that they oppose her because she was mean to them in her Tweets.

Are we nearing the point were people getting labeled some slander du jour will simply reply that when someone has nothing of substance to offer they will always turn to insults.

People just need to remember Alinksy 9. “The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.”

The public at large is growing tired of the constant labeling of the opposition of the woke. Time to just reply with “Whatever”

You mean that Neera has been getting some strangely woke tail on the side from Dinesh D'Souza?

Sheesh, no wonder Joe Manchin will vote no, she is a fully cloaked TRUMP SUPPORTER and closet friend of Melania Trump?

The Republicans should be unified in voting against every last thing Joe and the Ho do or propose

As far as I can tell, she has not done one thing outside of getting a law degree, government, and well funded leftist groups. Yet, she is somehow qualified to rule over everyone?

Methinks their race cards are over limit and expired.

Confiscate their cards at the next press gaggle, and cut them up.
