Rep. Cori Bush: July 4 ‘Is for White People,’ ‘Black People Still Aren’t Free,’ America Is ‘Stolen Land’
breitbart ^ | 4 Jul 2021 | ROBERT KRAYCHIK

Independence Day is about freedom for whites, while blacks “still aren’t free,” wrote Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) on Sunday, July 4.

In accordance with the left-wing style pushed by news media of capitalizing “black,” but not “white,” in reference to people, Bush tweeted, “When they say that the 4th of July is about American freedom, remember this: the freedom they’re referring to is for white people. This land is stolen land and Black people still aren’t free.”

Bush’s congressional campaign in 2020 aligned itself with the Black Lives Matter apparatus. She became the first black congresswoman from Missouri. She has regularly framed politics in racial terms, using phrases such as “white supremacy,” “systemic racism,” “black liberation,” and “racial justice,” and “structural inequity.”

She called for unspecified “reparations” in pursuit of “equity.” According to Bush, opposition to the neo-Marxist paradigm of “critical race theory” is a “racist dog whistle.”

Good heavens, is this animal DUMB!


Thing is she replaced William Lacey Clay, a black who inherited the seat from his father. He was no longer radical enough for the constituency of his district. She won the primary which was tantamount to winning the election. She beat the Republican by a 4:1 margin.

You are right, she won’t make things better, but she says what ‘her people’ want to hear.

Good news for Cory Bush! During the 4th of July Special, she can save money, if she hurries and reserves her one way flight now! She can go to Africa, or Canada, even Europe, and save! Just don’t book the flight back.

Same crap different day. To be fair to this imbecile, her remarks are for her “community”, the people who keep re-electing her. She could care less what whites, Asians, etc. think.

What on earth do they think oppression looks like? I would like to see a complete list of everything blacks are denied in America. Not vague conclusions but concrete freedoms. Things like get a job, go to college, choose where they live, shop where they want to, say things and criticize who they don’t like, associate with whom they please, travel freely, wear what they want, become wealthy and famous...what exactly is it they’re being denied?

All the Republicans should have to do to win big in every election is just not be insane.

Unfortunately, that didn't work too well in 2020.

“...and to cut a deal to bring their unhappy tenure in this country to an end.”


Where do you think they’ll want to go? It certainly won’t be Africa. They won’t want to go there and I’m pretty sure the Africans won’t want them. The Africans didn’t want them when they sold them into slavery.

How about preferential treatment given to black applicants over Whites and Asians at nearly every major university in the country.

How about the many government loan programs that are exclusively for Black-owned businesses?

Or scholarships that exist exclusively for Black students?

How about grading standards at many colleges that have been lowered since some students cannot meet the standards.

How about math programs being tossed out......considered racist b/c of black students’ low math grades.

What?? Black people today have more rights than white people. To name a few: The right to resist arrest. The right to get away with beating up white people. Racial quotas in hiring, contracting, and scholarships. The right to advocate violence without censorship by leftist tech lords.

Don’t tell Cori but the Apache aren’t all that interested in sharing their dirt with Africans.

They couldn’t even get along with the Mexicans.

Hey Cori, go back to Africa or any other country if you don’t like America.

Slavery is the best thing that every happened to your forefathers and mothers.

Say it on the streets of Chicago. Late at night. Every night. The people there need to hear your message.

“Native Americans” also came from somewhere (Asia?).

Maybe she should take note of the 1000s of blacks that fought for independence in 1776.

Feel free to leave any time, Chlamydia Cori. I hear Somalia, Burundi or the Congo are nice this time of year. Great economies, tidy middle class neighborhoods, truly the lands of milk and honey. Get out and don’t come back.

Cori Bush is nothing more than a black agitator! The Declaration of Independence states ‘all men are created equal’. That was the feeling of most of the founding fathers. It is not just a white thing except to people like her who twist things.

Could be Bush’s African forebears the blacks who made money off of slavery-————selling their black brethren to the white slavers.
