"Tucker: The White House wants us to shut up about this"
FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument
Regarding politically correct racial equality, both Tucker and "MAGA" House majority "Republicans" forgot to mention the following concerning Biden's unconstitutional, Democratic-vote winning edict.
The only express constitutional power that the states have given to the big, bad feds to establish government remedies for racial bias issues limits the feds power to voting rights issues, evidenced by the 15th Amendment.
"15th Amendment:
Section 1. The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.
Section 2. The Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation."
”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.
Patriots, the bottom line is this imo. What is your threshold of “pain” for peacefully stopping unconstitutionally big state and federal governments controlled by bully, constitutionally undefined political parties, from oppressing the people under their boots?
The inevitable remedy for ongoing, post-17A ratification, corrupt political party treason (imo)...
All MAGA patriots need to wake up their RINO federal and state lawmakers by making the following clear to them.
If they don’t publicly support either a resolution, or a Constitutional Convention, to effectively "secede" ALL the states from the unconstitutionally big federal government by amending the Constitution to repeal the 16th (direct taxes) and 17th (popular voting for federal senators) Amendments (16&17A), doing so before the primary elections in 2024, that YOU will primary them.
If the proposed amendment was limited strictly to repealing 16&17A, relatively little or ideally no discussion would be needed before ratification of the amendment imo.
With 16&17A out of the way, my hope is that Trump 47 becomes the FIRST president of a truly constitutionally limited power federal government.
In the meanwhile, I'm not holding my breath for significant MAGA legislation to appear in the first 100 days of new term for what may still prove to be another RINO-controlled House.
Trump will hopefully do another round of primarying RINOs for 2024 elections.
That was hilarious. “Shut up!”
The non-pres’s cabinet doesn’t exhibit equity!
This government sponsored racist / sexist discrimination must, and I suspect, will end at some point, either by court decree or the barrel of a gun. Discrimination is is discrimination regardless as to how you dress it.
Washington DC became a majority black city in 1957 due to a government campaign to open Federal jobs to blacks. White working class families who had lived in Northeast and Southeast DC for generations were red-lined out by real estate blockbusters, losing access to their communities, churches and graveyards within ten years. Southeast became a no-go zone of decaying rowhouses and gubmit housing projects.
In the early 2000s, 40-some years later, signs went up in black neighborhoods like Brookland, just south of Capitol Hill and Catholic University, decrying whites trying to move back in and reclaim some of the 1930s houses their parents, grandparents or great-grandparents had lived in: "NO GENTRIFICATION OF THIS HISTORICALLY BLACK NEIGHBORHOOD", read one that I saw in 2004. Because history starts the day a marxist agitator says it does—and in spite of the two- and three-generation black families working for the Fed now owning houses in Brookland worth $1.5 million, due to the growth of government's pressure on housing availabiity as well as inflation.
Gentrification of Southeast spread outward from the Eastern Market and RFK stadium, sidestepping the lingering gubmit housing. In Northeast, BigGov worker renovation fever spread upward from Capitol Hill. Rowhouses in Northeast that great-grandpop sold for $6,000 in 1960 now sell for $650,000.
The only upside to this latest Democrat "equity" scheme is that "others" now substantially outnumber the abortion-decimated black demographic. Many legally immigrated Hispanics are diligent workers, consider themselves Catholics and have family values—and they will soon be prominent among the gentrifiers; there are already Taco trucks parked in residential zones in Takoma Park, Mount Rainier and Hyattsville. Blacks are going to have to make common cause with Afganistanis and Somalians to counter the white Ukrainians and offensively smart Chinese incoming.
By the sound of it, a liberal. CT is full of them. CT contains some of the most rudely smug people with whom I've ever worked. You must be lonely there, as a conservative.
That’s what makes it easy to spot invading progressives in East Tennessee...smug, snarky arrogant bastards.
I had a similar experience a while back at the DMV. It was crowded; but, I watched the black guy at the counter just really move people through quickly. He walked away briefly, probably a break, and a white guy took over and everything slowed down. While this was happening a young black woman and her child(maybe about 10-12) sat down next to me. When the black guy returned, I said out loud, oh good. The little black girl looked at me, sort of amazed. I told her, the line moves really fast when he is working. She just nodded. I don’t think she expected me to be complimentary of this man.
Good that you got out!
