“The president is glad to see that one of the participants in that conversation has resigned, but they all should,” said Karine Jean-Pierre, the White House press secretary, calling the language recorded during the conversation “unacceptable” and “appalling.”

Nury Martinez steeped down as president of the council, she did not resign from the council itself.

How this plays out will be very interesting.

And one took a "leave of absence" which is not resigning either. This should be a major political weapon for the GOP - these racist liberals.

Democrats can be as racists as get out, just so long as they aren’t caught saying something that gors viral.

I don’t think its any of biden’s business, but I love seeing liberals eating other liberals when they are caught up in their hypocrisy.

Maybe joe should have the fbi raid her home.

I thought Miss La Raza 2022, had already resigned long before Jo Jo “called up her” to resign.

Why would she? She’s using the Northam playbook.

Why is Biden sticking his Federal nose into Los Angeles politics?

Looks like these folks are going with the Clinton defense. Delay and delay. Then claim it’s old news, and declare that we all need to move on.

And why not? It works.

Politics is a funny business. Leftists almost never apologize or resign from power. The Hispanic voting bloc, which recently has shown signs of disillusionment with the Democrats, may come to resent Biden’s quick call for the resignation of these Hispanic elected officials. Has he ever called for the resignation of other Democrats who have made bad mistakes?

The whole thing is a typical rat clown show. Biden says it’s great she resigned when she didn’t. The clueless morons who support the rats will be placated and Biden gets to pander to the blacks. These people are just a nation killing cancer.

I believe it is to appease his black voting base.

I live locally and every black group here - and up and down the state - is calling - loudly - for the racist council members to resign.

One of the things mentioned on the “hot mic” is that LA is over half Hispanic and only eight percent black - And that out of 15 council members, only four are Hispanic and there should be a far greater representation of Hispanics on the council than there are currently - along with fewer blacks.

She knows the Hispanics in LA “have her back” (she started out on the school board) - so why should she or the other Hispanics resign?

Also they make $207,000 per year, which is among the highest city council salaries in the nation.

Joe certainly doesn't hold himself to the same standards.

Thus, no resignations.

Why?

It is his sister souljah moment (just before an election)

Blacks know they’ve taken a back seat to Hispanics as the “minority du jour”; they’ve fallen behind them in population as well as political and economic clout. At this point they’re demanding reparations from the Bronze Horde before they even dry off after swimming the Rio Grande.

Just bought four new bags of popcorn from the Cub Scots that were selling them outside of REI and Lowe’s.

Was going to use them as gifts - but have already gone through the bag of “White Cheddar.”

This is Hispanics vs. Blacks - with the Biden admin thrown in for fun.

I expect we’ll go through another of the bags today.
