Fani Willis Is an Embarrassment to Black People. She's the Proof That DEI Only Hurts Us
Newsweek ^ | Kim Davis

Posted on 02/17/2024 4:04:20 AM PST by TigerClaws

AAs a Black woman and working professional, I've never been a huge fan of affirmative action and the recent rise of critical theory, and diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives has only bolstered my resistance. While it may seem necessary to some in order to right the wrongs of the past, I can sum up why these measures are an unmitigated disaster for hard-working Black Americans in two words:

Fani Willis.

Willis is the prosecutor in one of the nation's major cities and most high profile cases against former President Donald Trump. Her position and the historic nature of the case she is prosecuting put her in an elite class most Black people will never even dream of reaching. One would expect such a person to be polished and classy, and able to remain so even while responding to an uncomfortable barrage of questions on the witness stand.

Instead, what we got was a defiant, childish, sour woman who spoke with the sophistication of teenage girl at her first college party.

It wasn't simply that she sounded angry—she also sounded stupid.

As I watched her testimony with my husband, an unspoken dread passed between us, weighted by a certain type of sadness. We understood instinctively that we were watching result of a diversity-first system that ends up elevating the weak while simultaneously besmirching the strong.

Willis is an elected official, but to even be in a position to run for one of the highest offices in her state means she has passed through elite job after elite job. She has received degrees, awards, and accolades.

How on earth, then, does such an "accomplished" woman sound like a freshman college student while participating in the trial of the century?

The DEI slut is an embarrassment to law in a Constitutional republic.

We’re no longer a republic.

And nowhere on the planet does a Deep State hire the front office appearance types for brains.

We are in the post-Republic phase of the United States and have been for some time.

The big story this week (and we knew this some time ago) was the CIA worked with six allied intelligence agencies to interfere with our elections in 2020. Didn’t get much coverage or attention. A big yawn from our media.

We are no longer a Constitutional Republic. We are a Deep State oligarchy.

DEI is racism of low expectations...and Fani Willis the Queen of DEI.

What’s happened to Newsweek? I’ve seen several fairly decent, conservative articles posted from there recently.

Put together Newsweek, the author, and the subject matter and I think we can figure out what’s going on here...

Willis is about to be tossed under the bus.

But that’s no prob for Deep State.

There’s more where Willis came from, ain’t there...

It isn't just that Fani Willis is a black woman who has found she can be easily advanced by crying "racist"!

She was selected for the prosecutor position because she is a willing tool being used to bring down western civilization.

Can you imagine this creature in a bikini in Belize or Aruba? What the hell was Nathan Wade thinking...unless this was a career-enhancing affair.

She wore her top backwards in court!

Fani had to pay for it.

No discussions in the office about how his girlfriend Fani was going to give them the hookup to the money spigot for the law firm?

Clearly it was fraud and the law partner knew. Everyone of them lied on the stand but they played the race card. “We don’t gotta follow no rules on disclosure. It’s a black thang!”
