Missouri state Senator Maria Chappelle-Nadal, D-University City, blasted white Democrats on the Senate floor Tuesday, saying there’s “no difference” between them and members of the Republican Party.
Chappelle-Nadal said Democratic Missouri Sen. Claire McCaskill should add slavery reparations to the national Democratic platform as she says both parties have failed African-Americans, the Kansas City Star first reported. Chappelle-Nadal gained widespread notoriety last year for a Facebook post longing for President Donald Trump’s assassination and a later tweet comparing him to Adolf Hitler, but her comments this week honed in on members of her own party.
"Neither one of them give a heck about the black community, only the votes," Chappelle-Nadal said on the Missouri Senate floor, referring to Democrats and the GOP.
She then urged McCaskill, who called on Chappelle-Nadal to resign over her Trump assassination Facebook post, to repair her image among African-American voters by placing slavery reparations in the national Democratic Party platform. "I have a whole lot of people who don't like Claire McCaskill at all who are African American,” she said. “In Boone County, Missouri, in Callaway County, Missouri — what my family contributed to making the state what it is today is incredible, and my family deserves way more than what it is getting today.”
“The Democratic Party should add reparations for African Americans to their national policy agenda. The measure should be sponsored by Missouri's own @clairecmc,” Chappelle-Nadal tweeted Thursday morning.

The Democrat-Socialists should make slavery reparations and gun control key issues in their election campaigns. I strongly encourage them to do so.
My great-great-grandfather died fighting against slavery in the Civil War.
What am I gonna get?
My, what a lovely woman.
That white guy seems quite taken with her.
300,000 Union soldiers gave their lives so you useless, incompetent, ingrates could demand even more?
Oh, I know facts like that be old skool.
My ancestry is English, up to and including, my mother’s generation. The British Isles were once held by the Romans and the people were treated as serfs and slaves during that time. I will be expecting a check from Italy forthwith!
Same senator that openly hoping for Trump’s assassination. She shouldn’t even be a senator at this point.
I was under the impression that after this assholes unhinged comments about Trump, McCaskill and the rest of the “outraged” Missouri leadership demanded her immediate resignation....guess that changed...all theater, all the time....pathetic.
Yes, it's as simple as that. How long will this crap go on? 200 years? 300 years? 500? 1,000?
How long can these people continue to blame everything on the ancient past? Do hard-working, prosperous, successful black people cringe at this crap? You rarely hear from them.
Eight years of Obama was your “slavery reparations” and we’ll be paying for it for generations....
Bullshit, you fat ugly loud-mouthed moron! African-Americans have (and continue) to fail themselves. Whitey ain’t shooting up Chicago, Senator. If you want to see your worst enemy, look in the mirror.
Oh my, did you just nail the whole problem or what??? Great post!!
Don’t forget:
Which President put in place policies that drove black unemployment to record low levels? A Republican (the current POTUS)
My family came here in 1886 from Russia...decades after the end of slavery.
We lived in a non slave state...
Here’s a dollar and we will call it even...
Reparations were paid to black America in the form of genes
These types of people will not quit whining even if reparations are made. They will just find something else to complain about. With them, the glass is always empty. Pathetic people.
I’m good with slavery reparations.....for slaves and former slaves.
How about we give them $30 an hour for every hour they spent as a slave?
That would mean they get exactly ZERO dollars.
Let Claire write the first check. The rest of us have been footing the welfare/reparations bill since LBJ.
I don;t owe reparations either.
two of my great grandparents fought on the Northern side during the Civil War and when the war ended my great grandfather had to walk home to Kansas City from the south. Along the way the soldiers came across a black couple sitting in front of a burned out house. My great grandfather invited them to walk with the soldiers and he told them that he would find the man a job and a house in Kansas City, which he did, and I looked them up on the Census and there was the former slave couple right across the street from my great grandparents, so I don’t owe anyone any money.
Dude, you should Tweet that. LOL!
My great* grandaddy fought for the Union. We gave at the office.
