Psaki claims Biden wasn't trying to offend
Republicans or voting rights critics when
he likened them to racists
Posted By: Imright, 1/14/2022 7:55:13 PM
President Joe Biden was not making a 'human' comparison between opponents of his voter rights push with racists and segregationists in a speech this week, said the White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki on Friday. Rather he simply meant to compare the actions of those who opposed reform with the likes of George Wallace and other notorious figures. The clean-up came after critics accused Biden of divisive rhetoric, and the president has since seen his initiative collapse as two hold-out Democratic senators said they could not support his plan to change Senate rules in order to pass the legislation.

Asian voters are rejecting the Democratic Party, angered by mounting violence targeting their communities and by other quality-of-life crises plaguing New York City.

Well this takes the cake. Over there at CNN’s web site, journalist and author Jill Filipovic’s seriously projectionist rant accusing House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy and his fellow Republicans of seeking to “undermine” American democracy when it is “at its most fragile in generations.”Uh-huh. The specific cause of Filipo’s wrath is that in the event the GOP takes back the House in November, McCarthy has promised to treat House Democrats exactly as they have treated the GOP minority under Nancy Pelosi’s dictatorial rule. Filipo’s headline: Kevin McCarthy's comment is a warning sign

While the media, especially the leftists at such disreputable outlets as CNN and MSNBC, likes to frame the anti-DNC position as a somehow “racist” one, as if not liking our senile, white president is a racial issue, the facts don’t bear out that talking point.
In fact, according to the recent Quinnipiac poll that pegged Brandon’s approval rating at the embarrassingly low, rock-bottom level of 33%, Hispanics are actually the racial group that dislikes Brandon the most.As a reminder, the poll found that only 33 percent of Americans approve of how Brandon did in year one, with 53 percent of Americans disapproving of how he’s done.

Hillary Clinton took a thinly veiled dig at Sens. Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin on Friday, tweeting out a Martin Luther King quote about 'the white moderate' who ends up blocking 'the flow of social progress.'It came less than 24 hours after the two holdout senators effectively killed President Biden's hopes of pushing through voting rights legislation. As if there were any doubt at what she meant, she cheekily added: 'This is a subtweet.'

They also believe that the public may have moved on from former President Bill Clinton's scandalous past, as the ratings for FX's Impeachment: American Crime Story - produced by Monica Lewinsky - were surprisingly low, Playbook said.

History is replete with story after story of citizens of nations choosing to remain silent as fascist government officials arose from their ranks, eventually leading to the stripping away of their nation’s basic civil rights.The main part of the process is the conditioning of the submissive majority through the educational system and media. The collective identifies and punishes anyone who chooses to speak out, which in return acts a deterrent for anyone else considering taking a stand.In addition, there is a group of global leaders, including John Kerry and Bill Gates, involved in The World Economic Forum,

Just over a year ago, millions of energized young people, women, voters of color and independents joined forces to send Joe Biden to the White House. But 12 months into his presidency, many describe a coalition in crisis.
Leading voices across Biden’s diverse political base openly decry the slow pace of progress on key campaign promises. The frustration was especially pronounced this past week after Biden’s push for voting rights legislation effectively stalled, intensifying concerns in his party that fundamental democratic principles are at risk and reinforcing a broader sense that the president is faltering at a moment of historic consequence.
