Missouri Congresswoman Cori Bush sparked controversy on Sunday with a tweet in which she said Independence Day was only a holiday for white people.
'When they say that the 4th of July is about American freedom, remember this: the freedom they’re referring to is for white people,' she wrote. 'This land is stolen land and Black people still aren’t free.' Bush, who was first elected to the House of Representatives in November, has been widely viewed as the newest member of the so-called 'Squad' of congresswomen known for being outspoken on their left-wing views, and she is no stranger to controversy.

Let’s all just sit back and let it ride until they get around to removing the white people.

Getting really tired of these people and the damage their causing America. Please, if you hate it so much here, leave. You know, like Hollywood stars who were going to leave if an election didn't go their way. Funny, they're still here.

I wonder if she “owns” “stolen land.”
I wonder who it was “stolen” from and where they got title to it. I wonder if violence was involved.
The Dims” level of hatred can only be supported by an equal level of unreasoningness.

There is one great thing about this country, if you hate it so much you can't stand it, you are completely free to leave anytime you want.

To paraphrase Frank Sinatra, if a black person can't make here, they can't make it anywhere.

An elected black congresswoman says black people are not free. They're working overtime on the victim thing. She doesn't believe it anyway, it's all for show, to make noise, to try and get white people angry, to further divide.

Blacks aren't free in the US? Just like some places in North Africa that have actual real buying and selling of human beings (all black, both buyers and sellers) as slaves?
Can I buy a black person on Amazon? Because if something exists you know you can buy it from Amazon.

She and all the other poor 'ol me pseudo-victims are free to drop their American citizenship and move to another country where they are 'more free'. But for some reason I never see them do that...makes you wonder how sincere they are in their erroneous beliefs.

Black people aren’t free because they always have their hand out. When you take something from the government, they own you. That’s why they still think they’re slaves. Get a job and some dignity.

Don't focus on her comments as much as the silence from the democrat leadership, and their major donors.
Wonder how she defines freedom?
Freedom to say what she just said without any threat of action against her?
Freedom to peacefully demonstrate?
Freedom to own a firearm?
Freedom to move from one address to another address at your pleasure?
Freedom to obtain an education?
Freedom to rise above one's circumstances?
I wonder what she believe she, and millions of others, are not free to lawfully do?

This type of nonsensical rhetoric from people like Missouri Congresswoman Cori Bush, claiming that Independence Day was only a holiday for white people and that black people are still not free, is what makes bigots out of ordinarily nice, decent folks who don't have a prejudice bone in their body.

During the height of the pandemic, the hospitals in our deep South, racist, white privilage communities depended on slave labor to keep hospitals, grocery stores, trunking, automotive repair, fire fighters, EMTs Police and countless other 'essential' services functioning. One wonders why so many chose to be slaves instead of free men and women working for the common good. Its sad that we accomplished great things in very hard times when we work together. Yet nobody seems to recognize E Pluribus Unum in this country anymore.

If the black Bush had been born in Ethiopia, or any other African country, she would be one of the "citizen's of the world" illegally crossing our National border to get into our thoroughly racist country.

Oh, shut yer yap, Sandy. You aren't aiming to free the blacks, but to put EVERYBODY into the same Socialist chains that your likes put the blacks in the so-called Great Society. The way to serve the goal of defending the freedom of all people is to put idiotic Leftists like you and the "squad" out of power.
You blame the Right for what the Left did to the blacks under Jim Crow the same way that you blame them today for your moronic "Defund the Police" movement. Just go away. And stick your "Green New Deal" Sovietization vision where the sun don't shine.

So you aren’t free, huh? You are making $174,000 per year with extraordinary benefits, are free to go wherever you want, free to associate with whomever you want, free to say whatever you want, free to worship as you want…shall I go on? You are an angry, manipulative individual trying to leverage racism to your advantage. I am sick to death of your feigned outrage. There is not another country on earth where you could have accomplished what you have but you show no sense of gratitude, only anger. Just. Stop. It. America has had enough.

Does she own any "stolen" land? She should give it back to the Indians but which ones? They all fought and absorbed the land they won. Or, move to a country that never got land that others owned first. Actually it all belongs to God. Start there.

Cori Bush acts as the slave master over the people in the Congressional District that she represents. She wants to ensure that that "her people" remember their place and oppression so that they continue to fall under her (and the rest of the SQUAD's) negative influence. These people are being willingly enslaved by their Democrat slave masters. They will remain enslaved and not free until they remove the shackles Democrat's keep on them. Dependence of government programs, black on black crime, blaming everything on racism, and false "leaders" whose only goal is to remain in power are why they are not free. Once Cori's people open their eyes to this and get the chip off their shoulders, they will be truly free.

Hey Cory how about young black girls have "baby's daddy" instead of husbands, the sure way to be 'not free' is being an unwed mother with no high school diploma.
From the Brooking institue:
Since 1970, out-of-wedlock birth rates have soared. In 1965, 24 percent of black infants and 3.1 percent of white infants were born to single mothers. By 1990 the rates had risen to 64 percent for black infants, 18 percent for whites.

I’ve got a good idea. Renounce your US citizenship and move to Africa. Find a tribe in the poorest country on the continent and make yourself happy.

She's free to celebrate Juneteemph, a special federal holiday that celebrates freedom for bLACK people, but of course that's not enough, even atop Black History Mumph, and allowing her handlers to tear down historic monuments. No, we need to discredit and eventually remove Independence Day, as we've done with other cultural touchstones that now bear the Marxist sin of racism, to pave the way for international communism.
