Omar: There’s ‘Emotional Exhaustion’ from Talking with People Who Insist U.S Isn’t Racist
Breitbart ^ | 3 May 2021 | Ian Hanchett

Posted on 05/03/2021 6:30:43 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

On Monday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “The ReidOut,” Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) stated that there is emotional fatigue among black lawmakers because they have to have conversations with those “who want to turn a blind eye to the injustices that exist within our systems, who continue to insist that this country is not a country that is racist, that our systems don’t have racism embedded in them.”

Omar said, “I think there is a lot of emotional exhaustion that many of us who are black lawmakers and black people in public service are experiencing. Because every single day you know that there are ways to transform the justice system, the policing system, and you have to have conversation[s] with people who want to turn a blind eye to the injustices that exist within our systems, who continue to insist that this country is not a country that is racist, that our systems don’t have racism embedded in them.”

The U.S. is not racist, but many people in the U.S. are racists. Most are liberals.

Lol. No. They are exhausted because everywhere they look, they see racism.

I guess it’s the special order glasses they all wear. Lindell probably markets them as “My Glasses” in a brillIant ironic marketing ploy. He’s a genius.

But, but but Somalia is a land of the religion of peace, the most tolerant ideology to ever exist.

Making payments only to black farmers but not white farmers sounds racist to me.

She hasn’t spent 5 minutes talking to anyone outside her little racist bubble.

Her real name is Ilhan Nur Said Elmi.

She lied to get in, she lied to get citizenship.

She married her brother to fraudulently get him a Green Card.

If we still had the rule of law we could strip her citizenship and send her back to her beloved Somalia.

I suspect she wouldn’t be happy with Sharia law either.

If the USA is a racist country; it’s also the stupidest country on the planet. Otherwise, why would it continue to allow huge influxes of immigrants, from countries like Somalia?

I can see how pushing a false narrative is like rolling a large stone uphill. Maybe telling the truth wouldn’t be so taxing.

Doesn’t anyone else get the irony?
