The Political Insider – by Rusty
Elizabeth Warren and Kamala Harris, two of the Democrat party’s top contenders for the White House in 2020, have expressed support for providing reparations for black Americans affected by slavery.
Harris, the Senator from California, was asked directly if she is “for some type of reparations” during a radio interview last week, to which she responded, “Yes, I am. Yes I am.”
“I think that we have got to address that again, it’s back to the inequities,” she added, after referencing Jim Crow laws and 200 years of slavery, both concepts that the Democrat party fought tooth and nail to keep intact.
“We have got to recognize … people aren’t starting out on the same base in terms of their ability to succeed and so we have got to recognize that and give people a lift up.”
People aren’t starting out on equal footing because of something that ended over 150 years ago?
Warren Agrees With Harris
Warren, the Senator from Massachusetts, who has struggled to find her own truth since her campaign launch with beer-drinking videos and finally admitting she falsified her own heritage to further her career, jumped on board with Harris.
“We must confront the dark history of slavery and government-sanctioned discrimination in this country that has had many consequences, including undermining the ability of black families to build wealth in America for generations,” Warren told the New York Times. “We need systemic, structural changes to address that.”
From NYT: Elizabeth Warren follows Kamala Harris in supporting payment of reparations for slavery. ‘Embracing specific goals and overtly race-conscious legislation that even the most left-wing elected officials stayed away from in recent years.’ https://t.co/sP8rSUsI8I

Slavery was abolished in 1865 with the ratification of the 13th amendment. Some policy experts say the idea could cost trillions of dollars in an effort to offer financial backing to those who have never actually experienced slavery.
Following the Radical Left
Harris and Warren are two of the more blatantly pandering politicians on the left. Everything they say is calculated – in the case of Harris, craftily, and in the case of Warren, sloppily. But make no mistake, they are saying these things as a means to garner support from their radical base.
Prior to now, reparations have typically been a concept only embraced by the fringe of the Democratic party.
Rep. Maxine Waters, the intellectually void Democrat from California, told a crowd in Selma, Alabama, that the concept of reparations is one she would highly consider.
New York socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said she backs reparations, not simply for slavery but for non-white communities who were negatively impacted by America’s New Deal.
“Slavery was abolished a century and a half ago, nobody today has a grandparent who was a slave, and in that sense I think you reach a point where you need to move on,” Mark Steyn told Tucker Carlson Thursday night.
He’s right.

Perhaps somebody should remind these Democrats that President Trump has done more to help the black community in just over two years than the previous president did in eight. He’s providing minorities jobs and an opportunity. Democrats simply want to hand minorities free money in exchange for a vote.
A poll conducted in 2016 showed nearly seven in 10 Americans oppose paying reparations.
This is great news. Being that it was the democratic party that had and wanted slaves they should do it.
That’s mighty generous of them. If I had anything to do with it, I might even kick in a few shekels myself but I think they can afford it with all the padded billing and extorted wealth they’ve already stolen from US.
Or am I reading this all wrong?
“Elizabeth Warren and Kamala Harris, two of the Democrat party’s top contenders for the White House in 2020, have expressed support for providing reparations for black Americans affected by slavery.”
wow… I’m REALLY surprised that Harris is pushing this BULLSH#T AGENDA.
GET YOUR ‘REPARATIONS’ FROM THE STINKING jEWS, YOU BRAIN-DEAD COMMIE B#TCH. THEY WERE THE MAJORITY OF THE SLAVE SHIP OWNERS/TRADERS!!!!!
I REALLY hate that jewb#tch whore… want to see her hang more than most.
And I have UNDENIABLE PROOF of her TREASON, in writing, with her signature on it.
…because the broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity of their minds they more readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie, since they themselves often tell small lies in little matters but would be ashamed to resort to large-scale falsehoods. It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths, and they would not believe that others could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously. Even though the facts which prove this to be so may be brought clearly to their minds, they will still doubt and waver and will continue to think that there may be some other explanation. For the grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it, even after it has been nailed down, a fact which is known to all expert liars in this world and to all who conspire together in the art of lying.

Absolutely UNCHALLENGED!
Have encountered more than my fair share of the well-‘programmed’ over the years.
Reparations? Ok…I think we the white folks of America should accept them! I mean, THEY are paying US, right?
They were given sanctuary here in the U.S. from a life of being slaughtered by the neighboring villagers, being chased through jungles and across savanahs by animals that were higher on the food chain. And not much has changed over there in the past few hundred years. They have been handed every opportunity up to and including the White House…yet they are angry, violent and ungrateful. You just can’t help some folks.

DAMN!!! A RUSTY TRUMPER!!!!
BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Blacks had fkg slaves as well, WTF??? Elizabeth Warren is a traitor bitch who thinks she is a fkg Indian! Godamn whore bitch.
They deserve to be living in deepest, darkest Africa in mud huts with their mentality (those demanding reparations).
Well, aint this great. Volunteers, are they? Just like the crowd who says there are too many people and wishes a mass die off, but will not get in front and be an example. These retards want everyone else to pay reparations except them. Well, they should re-read history, the greatest equalizer of all. Go ahead! Let them babble on! Hopefully, they will trip over themselves and fall over the cliff.
Well, well! Here ya go folks.
