Fox News co-host Juan Williams has accused a White PBS host of disinviting him from a discussion about racism in America after learning he’s from Panama. Mr. Williams, who co-hosts “The Five,” made the comments while giving a virtual acceptance speech Tuesday during the CultureX Awards, in which he claimed he was snubbed from a PBS show addressing the George Floyd unrest last year because he’s apparently not Black enough. “Before I responded to the invitation, it was withdrawn,” he said.(Snip) The White host said he is a fan of my work on television, but my background didn’t fit with a program about

Comments:

Juan's father was born in Jamaica, and his mother was born in Panama to a father from India and a mother from the Caribbean. PBS says he's not black, but takes no issue with pResident Mattressback, who has the same genetic background, posing as an African-American in order to win votes from stupid people.

Um, Juan, maybe you were disinvited because you have never had anything reasonable to add to a conversation on any topic. Then there are all those goofy faces you make toward people with more thoughtful opinions who disagree with you.

Question is, is it because Panamanians are considered to be POC, or because to be a Panamanian is to be too white (read American).

“If you want to eliminate racial discrimination, stop racially discriminating”! BUT just maybe a broad segment of the real racists WANT to retain the “victim” card, forever.

They were just being nice. Easier to say he was Panamanian than to tell him he was just too dumb. And he tells of this “snub” while accepting an award? See my second sentence above.

His nationality - Juan's father was born in Jamaica, and his mother was born in Panama to a father from India and a mother from the Caribbean. A mother from the Caribbean.(=black) Says he's not black, but takes no issue with Kamala Mattressback, who has the same genetic background, posing as an African-American in order to win votes from stupid people. So he is at least a mulatto or mixed race,disavowing his race. He needs to be fired, I can't stand him and his continual racial rants and libnut positions. He is always predictable. Look at his skin, hair, nostrils, etc. Black is black.

If Juan gave it some thought, he would bend down and kiss the ground he walks on. To have a job on television with probably a hefty salary, when he has no discernable talent, should make him very thankful. I am still with a couple of shows on Fox in the evenings but The Five was not one of the ones I watched consistently. But I have seen enough of Juan to know what he is like.

Juan is not stupid. He knows his role is to say outrageous nonsense in defense of dims in order to anger and / or amuse the conservative audience. He is a perfect foil for Gutfeld on The Five. A man with any pride and integrity would have walked away long ago. He is a well paid token minstrel and laughs all the way to the bank. Where's Hunter?

A vehicle mileage tax could be on the table in talks about how to finance the White House’s expected multi-trillion-dollar infrastructure proposal, according to Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg. Buttigieg, who spoke with CNBC’s Kayla Tausche on Friday, also contended that President Joe Biden’s forthcoming plans to rebuild the nation’s roads, bridges and waterways would lead to a net gain for the U.S. taxpayer and not a net outlay. “When you think about infrastructure, it’s a classic example of the kind of investment that has a return on that investment,” he said.(Snip) “I’m hearing a lot of appetite to make sure

AOC’s beef with MCC isn’t over yet. New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is alleging that shadowy political forces handpicked former news anchor Michelle Caruso-Cabrera to primary her last year explicitly because of her “ethnicity” as part of a “disgusting” attempt to confuse voters. Ocasio-Cortez made the blistering claim in a wide-ranging interview this week, charging that “Wall Street” and other unspecified entities selected Caruso-Cabrera for the 2020 primary battle specifically because she’s “also a Latina, down to having a hyphenated last name.” “It was just the most cynical, disgusting thing,” Ocasio-Cortez said in the interview

The Republican governor signed SB 354, the Fairness in Women’s Sports Act, shortly after it passed both chambers by wide margins. The bill was delivered to his desk Tuesday. “I have studied the law and heard from hundreds of constituents on this issue,” Mr. Hutchinson said. “I signed the law as a fan of women’s sports from basketball to soccer and including many others in which women compete successfully.

Oakland plans to start a guaranteed income program this spring for 600 residents—one of the largest such programs in the country, city officials said—as Bay Area leaders search for solutions to rising poverty and inequality in the wake of the pandemic. Through the pilot program, residents will receive $500 a month for at least 18 months with no strings attached, Mayor Libby Schaaf said at a Tuesday news conference. Checks could be in residents’ hands by this spring or summer. Low-income families—with at least one child under 18—who are Black, indigenous or people of color will be randomly selected

Columbia, S.C.—A South Carolina senator has a proposal to make sure no federal law can ever seize guns—make everyone over 17 who can legally own a gun a member of a militia. South Carolina’s constitution allows the governor to call up an “unorganized militia” of any “able bodied male citizens” between ages 18 and 45. State Sen. Tom Corbin’s proposal would automatically expand membership to everyone who is over 17 and could own a gun. Supporters of the bill said if everyone is a member of a militia, then they all fall under the opening clause of the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution
