A group of House progressives led by Rep. Cori Bush, D-Mo., have revived discussions at the federal level about giving reparations to Black Americans who descended from slaves and Americans of African descent. Bush held a press conference on Wednesday unveiling her Reparations Now resolution, which declares "that the United States has a moral and legal obligation to provide reparations for the enslavement of Africans and its massive harm on the lives of millions." She spoke alongside fellow Squad members Reps. Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., and Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., as well as Senate candidate Rep. Barbara Lee, D-Calif., and freshman Rep. Summer Lee., D-Pa., and a host of activists from around the country.

Comments:

There are probably over 50,000,000 POC in the USA. Another 100,000,000 are of mixed races. All those extra zeroes on top of the budget don't mean a thing. (My math teachers never said that!) It's never going to happen; it's just something for perpetual malcontents on the communist left to holler about. Don't you just love "activists"?

While they are waiting for reparations, would it not be more expedient for blacks to get an education, learn a trade and find a good-paying job? Seems to me that would be a lot quicker. The beauty of this path is that it applies to all races.

Pound sand, you race baiting scum. Reparations have already been paid. You will find them buried in Union Cemeteries, and in the trillions already paid into welfare which accomplished nothing but demands for more welfare, while destroying the black family.

I am here to demand that the black community pay reparations for having taken jobs from which the Irish were excluded (No Irish Need Apply) when, notably, those exact same Irish had just saved the black community from slavery. On hte other hand, it was kind of good for the Irish to have to save themselves... Hm.

Blacks already got their reparations via trillions of taxpayer dollars spent on welfare ( &redundant) programs, food stamps, free school breakfast and lunch programs, subsidized public housing, AA programs, college scholarships, medical care, Obama phones, etc,, since the mid 60s. Too bad they squandered them.

I want pay related to my great-Grandfather's part in liberating said slaves. Perhaps this will be a teaching moment for the wokies on EXACTLY how that "slavery thing" really worked, and who was affected by it, starting with the Irish followed by Danish, Portuguese, and French sailors captured by British warships. Then there's the "inconvenient truth" of Freed Blacks who owned their own Plantations worked by their very own "not-free" slaves.

Why doesn't the US go buy a bunch of land in Africa. We can then give out the "40 acres and a mule" to any person who wants their reparations as actual 40 acres of land in the Black's beloved Africa. If they want their reparations, they must move to their 40 acres in Africa and take care of their mule, and never come back. No cash, just the 40 acres and a mule as so many say was promised to them.

The United States Supreme Court, in all its wisdom, declared that reparations are unconstitutional the demcommie federal government is trivializing matters of major importance and magnifying matters of lesser importance and the tactic is, to keep people involved in the latter and not focusing on the former, typical communist revisionist method of initiating "change" the communists never sleep when it comes to initiating governmental change

Demanding “reparations” from those who either never owned slaves or whose families immigrated to America long after slavery was over, shows an America-hating desperation unrelated to reality. Welcome to the radical Democrat bigotry at all costs.

I might be OK with this if the caveat was that everyone - and their progeny - who chose to receive "reparations" payouts were obliged to leave, and forever stay away from, the United States. Those black Americans who did not opt in for the reparations thing are welcome to stay, of course.

I recall Juan Williams stating he was against any reparations since it was likely going to be linked to cancellation of most of the programs that employ many African-Americans. Wondering what the math is on this type of payment considering there would be drastic cuts to most government programs? How much would be saved by not having such large expenses for Medicaid, EBT, unemployment, housing subsidies, etc... In the long-run the Federal deficit would be cut quickly in a few years, and likely be balanced too. Remember, all of those folks administering those programs would no longer have a job either. All of the companies selling supplies, phones, computers to those government agencies would see their sales decline accordingly too, I would suspect.

The leftist, progressive, and socialist Democrats have figured out that backing so-called “reparations” is a pretty sure way to “buy” the votes of a percentage of the Black minority population group who have been operating at an intelligence level somewhere between being politically low information and being completely stupid. One thing is for sure, one day a big majority of the Black population will figure out that the Democrats have been lying to them since the Lyndon Johnson era back in the mid 1960s and after that happens the Democrats are going to be in a serious hurting status.

Time was when a politician like Patrick Henry (“Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace–but there is no peace!”) or Abraham Lincoln (“A house divided against itself cannot stand”) could quote from the Bible and assume that pretty much everyone in his audience got the reference. Those days are gone, of course. But most Americans still have at least a nodding acquaintance with the Book. Not, however, those who write and edit articles for the New York Times.

A printer error in Nassau County, New York turned every registered voter in the county Democrat. The printer reportedly botched over 976,000 voter registration cards and labeled every voter in the county Democrat. Republicans make up over 60% of registered voters in Nassau County which left many Conservatives in the county feeling absolutely blindsided by the error. Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman told NBC 4 News “We’re already starting to get phone calls from people, saying ‘I’m a registered Republican, I’m a registered Conservative – how come I’m being identified as a Democrat? Who changed my registration?’ And they’re quite upset about it.”

Every so often, the race industry in America — let’s call it what it is — seemingly feels like they are not getting enough attention, and so they come forward with some new absurd way to get that attention, apparently clinging to the notion that there is no such thing as bad publicity.

Bush has glommed onto an idea that is certainly not new and is hugely unpopular with roughly half the country. But Bush has decided to give it the old college try and float it once again.
