Cori Bush: Republicans Don't See Black Women As Equals!

Rep-elect Cori Bush (D-MO) shared on social media her shopping at a thrift store in St. Louis. She said  the Republicans are a bunch of clueless idiots.

BLACK LIVES MATTER

PROTECT BLACK WOMEN! 

END SARS NOW!

HER NAME IS BREONNA TAYLOR!

WEAR A DAMN MASK! SAVE A LIFE!

ELECTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES!

BLOGGER IS TRASH!

The newest member to the Squad is coming with allegations that the Republican Party is a bunch of clueless white nationalists. Like we didn’t know!

Anyway, the Squad is four women of color who represent the most progressive House districts in four states. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) and Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) have won their reelections and will continue to be united in driving the Democrats crazy.

Right now, the Democratic Party is fumed at the women for being too much in the spotlight and causing the Republicans to win back House districts the Democrats won in 2018. They also blame them for the epic failures to capture the Senate. They are now resorting to two run-off races in Georgia as their last hope to win the Senate. It’s going to a tall order to win the Georgia seats but Democrats are hopeful. 

Republicans are really desperate. They have no foreseeable plan post-Donald J. Trump.

Anyway, Rep-elect Cori Bush made history by becoming Missouri’s first Black congresswoman.

But on her first day of work, GOP colleagues mistakenly called her “Breonna” because she wore a face mask with Breonna Taylor’s name on it in memory of the Kentucky woman who was killed by the Louisville Metro Police. The cops were not criminally charged with her death. One of the cops was charged with reckless discharge of the firearm into another apartment.

It’s Day One, so I’m wearing my “Breonna Taylor” mask.

A few of my Republican colleagues have called me Breonna, assuming that’s my name.

It hurts. But I’m glad they’ll come to know her name & story because of my presence here.

Breonna must be central to our work in Congress.

Bush has spoken about the challenges of being a woman of color on the job and tweeted, “it hurts.” 

Bush’s surprise victory against Rep. William Lacy Clay (R-MO) shocked the state. Bush, a Black Lives Matter activist, ran against Clay and beat him by five points.

Once she takes office she will take the seat of the 1st Congressional District. 

The Republicans are embracing white nationalism. They have taken Trumpism to a new level.
