Amazon founder and Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos announced that he would award $100 million to CNN commentator Van Jones as part of a project to promote civility in politics.

“I am announcing today a new philanthropic initiative … It is called the Courage And Civility award. It recognizes leaders who aim high to improve solutions with courage and always do so with civility,” Bezos said at a Tuesday press conference, shortly after his successful Blue Origin space launch. Jones will direct the money to charities of his choosing.

Guess I better follow Thumper's mom's rule and not say anything about the rocket flight this morning. If that ain't bad enough, take a look at x-wife Muckenzee's dispersal of gazillions of dollars. Obviously have YUGE money does NOT make you intelligent. (One persons civility--------ain't!)

Van Jones the card carrying communist?

Bezos supports communism. Got it.

[Tell It Right]

Expecting civility from donating money to Van Jones is like expecting a potpourri scent when your roommate eats butter beans.

Giving Van Jones $100M to promote ‘civility’ is like giving Jeffrey Dahmer money to promote veganism.

i bet you $100 million that Van Jones has his own charity, or creates one, and gives the money to it. That is typically what leftists do.

The rich want as much disruption as possible. Which explains why they are propping up the likes of CNN and MSNBC. If their business model was based on actual performance and profits, those two channels would have closed up shop several years ago.

Let’s remember Van Jones was an advisor to Obama.

Communist Van Jones is going to lecture us about civility in political discourse????? Mr. Whitelash himself is going to promote civil discussion????

[monkeyshine]

Just what we need. Another politically motivated virtue signaling charity. I guess there just aren’t enough good charities that would feed and house the poor, shelter the abused, educate children, train people in various trades, provide medicine for the indigent etc to give that money to.

People are strange.

Bezos has affluent brain rot.

You thinkin’ $blm former head cheeze patty coulors and her real estate investing........ uh I mean providing homes for her family. Yeah, that’s it............

[butlerweave]

Jones will direct the money to charities of his choosing. Himself

[Nateman]

What porn star is he going to give 100 Million $ to promote Celibacy?

[knarf]

I was suspicious when his name suddenly popped up as a Republican.

This " Courage And Civility award " thing is a lefty buzz phrase of meaninglessness.

kaitlin jennings fits that description.

buy from amazon donate to a communist

nothing like funding your own demise

but hey that amazon prime is such a good deal

thats like going to a restaurant that sells crap sandwiches and saying yeah but they have free soda

Translation: More voter fraud.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Jones will choose this “charity”…

Has anyone ever told you, you have a way with words?

I’m still cleaning off my screen. :)
