Violent protests? Shouting down those they agree with? Attacking people leaving
the convention?


Rioting, murder, destruction of property, civil unrest

The tactics are more than these attacks on law and order.  Even more sinister is not passing  COVID stimulus/relief bills, thus purposefully creating more economic pain among many voters.   Even partial bills are denied by the Dems.   Voters in dire economic straits do not vote for incumbents.

I predicted it and sure enough it happened.

The word on social media is Amy Coney Barrett may have adopted her two black kids from Haiti illegally and she should be investigated. We'll see if they use that as a stall tactic but if they can prove the kids were adopted illegally, will they make the judge give them up?

She adopted them because she was racist

Supreme Court Will Make 'Being a Woman' a Pre-Existing Condition, Nancy Pelosi Says

Pelosi warned Americans that should Trump and Republicans rush Barrett onto the court, seniors will be forced to leave nursing homes; college-age children will be kicked off health insurance plans; and women will be forced to return to a time when simply "being a woman" made it obscenely difficult to receive adequate health services.

"What I am concerned about is anyone that President Trump would have appointed was there to undo the Affordable Care Act. That is why he was in such a hurry, so he could have someone in place for the oral arguments, which begin November 10.

Where do these idiots find the limits of their decency? I cannot believe the appalling nature of these Democrats and their ilks and followers. Ibram  Kendi said this about Amy Barrett’s adoption of the two Haitian kids she have.

~ "Some White colonizers 'adopted' Black children. They 'civilized' these 'savage' children in the 'superior' ways of White people, while using them as props in their lifelong pictures of denial, while cutting the biological parents of these children out of the picture of humanity," ~

Unbelievable!

you are a victim of fake news.  lets see if I can help you with the complete quote:

Kendi wrote “Some White colonizers ‘adopted’ Black children. They ‘civilized’ these ‘savage’ children in the ‘superior’ ways of White people, while using them as props in their lifelong pictures of denial, while cutting the biological parents of these children out of the picture of humanity.” He continued, “And whether this is Barrett or not is not the point. It is a belief too many White people have: if they have or adopt a child of color, then they can't be racist.” He added, “I’m challenging the idea that White parents of kids of color are inherently 'not racist' and the bots completely change what I’m saying to “White parents of kids of color are inherently racist.” These live and fake bots are good at their propaganda. Let’s not argue with them.”

Now that the quote is correct, I don't see it as productive to make this sort of statement at this time.   This particular lady doesn't seem to be that bad, so I wouldn't want to see her made out to be a racist when she gets her due grilling. 

This particular commentator Ibram X Kendi isn't of much relevance but his quote will be misused, misquoted, and used as a written screed to mischaracterize the preponderance of people other than conservatives.  I hear his view, and there are parts of it that are sensible yet in the context of this woman they don't appear to apply.

He said bots are changing his words. What bots? Regardless, his challenging the idea that White parents of kids of color are inherently 'not racist' is bad enough. Here is his tweet thread.


http://twitter.com/DrIbram/status/1309918635738173440

Guys like him want to plant a seed in people's heads that white people's intention for adopting kids of another race may not be honorable. Judge Barrett deserves praise. If Dr Ibram doesn't want white people to adopt black people, he should call on blacks to adopt all the black kids. People who have no intention of adopting kids, spending money on them and helping them grow shouldn't be questioning the intentions of those who do adopt kids and sacrifice a lot. We'll see if Democratic Senators stoop to Dr. Ibram's level during the hearings. Looking at the photo attached, I don't see those kids suffering. If they were still living and starving in an orphanage in Haiti, would Dr. Ibram feel they are better off?

Uh oh. Democrats have discovered SC nominee Barrett has ties to the faith based group People of Praise. She will be hammered about this in the Senate hearings. At least she doesn't belong to the Church of Scientology.

She has already answered for that stating she could keep her religious beliefs from interfering with her legal obligations of being impartial.

What she might get hammered on regards any conversations with Trump or WH representatives or anyone else for that matter how she would rule in pending cases.

GQ,

Here are the two tweets to put back into some context.



Followed by this one a half hour later.



He was responding to a since-deleted tweet about White parents adopting Black children.  I can't find a copy of it at this time so don't know the full context of his replies.

The reference to bots likely due to misquotes around the net and other out of context copies with only the first in his series of tweets, much like you posted.

btw I am neither defending nor supporting the tweet.

You posted a partial quote and stated it was in reference to barrett, which I've shown you it wasn't necessarily.
     the Ibram character is an unknown, and doesn't represent a wide audience.   When barrett is getting grilled by democrats, if it is implied she is racist based on her adoption of the black children she will prevail and the democrats will look foolish.  I don't think the democrat senators will go there as it isn't appropriate in this case.  Her record should be reviewed.  Down the road,  I think she is going to make rulings that I may not agree with but from what I've seen she isn't extreme.

The professor needs to present substance to support his statement:  facts about the historical context he raises and an analysis of its relevancy to the Barrett family.     

His words "superior" and "denial" are accusations of racism.  Racism was not a paramount social issue during the colonial period.  Slavery was, but that is not the racism of today's culture.   Think of Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hennings. 


The professor's statements remind me of the outlandish statements of David Duke. Also, the professor certainly was not considerate of the feelings of the Barrett children. 

BU should dismiss the professor.  However, he is probably tenured, so typical of liberal university professors these days.   Question:  why would parents pay $60,000/yr just in tuition to have a child educated by anarchists?

Regarding the Barrett family, it appears a happy one.  Supposedly the favorite sibling is not either of the two  children born in Haiti but the youngest, who has Down Syndrome.  Hopefully the press will not pursue this outlandish matter.

The Dem's have decided that it's far too dangerous with Covid and everything
to meet with the nominee and have hearings etc.

I agree with them. The nominee was vetted already recently and they should
just have an up or down vote right away, so that the Dem's can move on to
important things like not coming up with a covid stimulus or any other legislation.

Someone might want to tell Kamala Harris that she needs to get her American history straight. She claimed that Abraham Lincoln said it would be wrong to fill the Supreme Court vacancy that opened up 27 days before the 1864 election. That is nonsense. Lincoln said no such thing. Furthermore, back then, Congress was in recess from July 4 until December 5, i.e., until after the election, so there would have been no point in nominating anyone to fill the vacancy before the election. Also, Lincoln submitted his nominee the day after Congress returned. He did not wait for the new Congress to take office (which, back then, did not happen until March).
