President Joe Biden’s administration is lending support to a study of reparations for African-Americans, with the effort part of new Democratic legislation to create a commission on the controversial issue.

The Associated press reported on Wednesday that a House panel heard testimony on a bill to create the commission that would examine the history of slavery in the U.S. and offer solutions, like reparations.

According to Reuters, Biden stated last year that “we must acknowledge that there can be no realization of the American dream without grappling with the original sin of slavery, and the centuries-long campaign of violence, fear, and trauma wrought upon Black people in this country.”

Why not just legalize white-slavery?

You know they want to.

How are they going to prove their ancestors picked cotton? A large number of them came to the U.S. voluntarily since slavery ended.

Xiden is full of sh*t. How are we going to grapple with Dopey Winfrey, LeBrontosaurus James, and all the other entertainers, actors, politicians, braindead college "perfesers", the baseball player who just signed a $340 million dollar contract. "Unemployed" NFL quarterbacks who sign sneaker contracts for 40 million. Xiden is FULL OF SH*T. Hey Xoe! What the hell is YOUR definition of the American Dream? How much does a person have to make?

You can dislike the left, but you have to respect them. They don’t pussyfoot around when they get power. They jam it down your throat and go for broke. Get all the unpopular crap out of the way now and either 1) Harris is not as tainted by it when she takes over or 2) people just forget about all the broken promises by 2024.

And 1-6-21 was a test! President Trump invited his rally people, not paid terrorists to the Capital.

The left/terrorist stepped in and caused a riot. The commie left always look ahead to see how they can use any event to their advantage.

He was a full blown member of the KKK as were the Dermocrats, KKK Byrd springs to mind.

As for “proving slave ancestry” if your white your not your not black, so money for everyone not white, hispanic, european etc etc.

But that could be tiresome, so watch for an E.O stating a Mandated DNA swab of all people in the Country held on file by the feds to help them provide reparations.

And I am Not joking.

Blessings

They had better triple the Guard in D.C. if they pass this.

This isn’t complicated. They are going to devaluate what you have with money printing & then take whatever is left through taxation.

They want everything and will take it all.

They are devaluing your savings & will tax you for the rest. You can’t do anything.

Reparations? Ha! Biden can’t even send out the $1400 he promised everybody for putting up with him.

Everything is like a military offensive with them. Attack attack attack. Always on the offensive. I think, at the root of their militant nature, they’re a bunch of angry, deeply confused homosexuals with a multitude of mommy/daddy issues.

He’s not going to be there long enough to reparate anything.

there are going to be serious issues if the central government fines people that have never enslaved anyone so they can pay people that have never been enslaved — and try to call it “slavery reparations”.

I don’t think huge numbers of them did, until Ted Kennedy ‘gifted’ us with immigration reform in the 60s.

81% of non-blacks recently surveyed are AGAINST reparations.

Sorry Race-Baiter Plugs, this pandering is going nowhere.

As Chuckie Nostrilitis Schumer once threatened: “If you sow the wind, you will reap the whirlwind!”
