No. LBJ was the instrument. The Black Community itself should be blamed for its own destruction.
"The nation’s laws HAVE torn African American families apart (read: Welfare [??? emphasis added]). Still doesn’t exempt you from your basic responsibilities."
FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument
As a side note to this thread, please consider the following.
Regardless of politically correct, desperate Democratic and RINO vote-winning interpretations of the Constitution's General Welfare Clause, patriots are reminded that the states have never expressly constitutionally given the unconstitutionally big, bad, feds the specific power to dictate, regulate, tax and spend in the name of desperate Democratic vote-winning INTRAstate welfare.
"Article I, Section 8, Clause 1: The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defense and general Welfare of theUnited States[people ???]; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;"
Justice Joseph Story, and other respected constitutional experts, had pointed this out.
"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States." —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
"The power to regulate manufactures is no more confided to congress, than the power to interfere with the systems of education, the poor laws or the road laws of the states [emphasis added]." —Justice Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution 2, 1833.
”Simply this, that the care of the property, the liberty, and the life of the citizen, under the solemn sanction of an oath imposed by your Constitution, is in the States and not in the federal government [emphases added]. I have sought to effect no change in that respect in the Constitution of the country.” —John Bingham, Congressional. Globe. 1866, page 1292 (see top half of third column)
"From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added]." —United States v. Butler, 1936.
“Cherish, therefore, the spirit of our people, and keep alive their attention. If once they become inattentive to the public affairs, you and I, and Congress and Assemblies, judges and governors, shall all become wolves [emphasis added]. It seems to be the law of our general nature.” - Thomas Jefferson (Letter to Edward Carrington January 16, 1787)
Democrats Are Terrified Of An Educated And Informed Public (3.12.23)
Regarding 2024 elections, it's up to Democratic and Republican, Trump 47-supporting MAGA patriots to initiate the final stage of Trump 47's second term mission to finish draining the swamp by primarying as many of our beloved state and federal lawmakers and executives as we can.
After all, lawmakers and executives continue to show that they do not have the patriotism and leadership skills necessary to find legislative support for effective remedies for unconstitutional government policies imo.
In fact, given that one of the very few powers that the states have expressly constitutionally given to the unconstitutionally big federal government to dictate domestic policy is to run the Mail Service (most federal domestic policy actually based on stolen state powers), the worst problem that the peacetime country would otherwise be looking at with a new Congress of freshman lawmakers is a delay with mail delivery.
"Article I, Section 8, Clause 7: To establish Post Offices and post Roads;"
Trump can endorse candidates that Constitution-savvy patriots recommend as long as candidates are not incumbents, candidates also promising to repeal the 16th (direct taxes) and 17th (popular voting for federal senators) Amendments after they win office.
The definition of insanity is reelecting your beloved career state and federal lawmakers and executives over and over again, expecting those same politicians to find remedies for unconstitutional government policies every time.
LBJ and the Democrats tore the black families apart with the creation of welfare moms and perpetual “victimhood”.
This “Reparations Task Force” sounds like a bunch of cellar-dwelling participation trophy collectors who have never achieved anything meaningful in their lives.
They just sit around dreaming up new ways to suck free stuff off of the taxpayers.
In saner times, these parasites would be laughed back into their basements.
Why do they hate children?
Everyone would be better served to know their history when proposing reparations to anyone or any group especially when states like California are bankrupt as is the US government. Politicians are attempting to buy votes at a time when they’re being exposed as corrupt & treasonous.

FIRST slave owner in the Colonies - Anthony Johnson - Forgotten History
https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=PN1KgMwZrJ8
Anthony Johnson was a man known for achieving wealth in the early 17th-century Colony of Virginia. Born in Angola, he was one of the first African Americans whose right to own a slave for life was recognized by the Virginia courts. Held as an indentured servant in 1621, he earned his freedom after several years, and was granted land by the colony. He later became a tobacco farmer in Maryland. He attained great wealth after completing his term as an indentured servant, and has been referred to as “’the black patriarch’ of the first community of Negro property owners in America.”

More attacks on women. Transgenderism is pure misogyny. So is Newscum.
