Let me be clear. You get paid to shape a liberal narrative. You get paid to attack this president, Jones shot back. "I dont get a dime for this president. I dont get a dime from the campaign. Everything Ive done has been me and based on my principles.

"So dont ask me that. You only ask me that because I dont fit your narrative. I dont want anything from this president. Its what I can do for my country and you need to accept that many other African Americans and others support this president because of his policies. And to insult me to say am I getting paid, that is disgraceful, Jones said

Thats representative of MSNBC and their narrative to keep Blacks silent who happen to support this president, Jones added. Why cant I be like White liberals or other Whites, nobody questions if theyre getting paid, so do you ask Democrats [if] are they getting paid? Are you getting paid by Joe Biden?
Melvin then quickly ended the interview.

Paid liberals to push propaganda.
