Now The Noise Goes After FLOTUS Because Of "Breakfast Tacos!"

Pearl clutching about First Lady Jill Biden mentioning tacos at Hispanic event.

The noise is zeroed in on First Lady, Dr. Jill Biden saying "breakfast tacos" to a group of Latinx supporters. This pearl clutching from the far right is certainly driven the news cycle.
 
Here we go again.

"YOU AIN'T BLACK!"

"WE ARE NOT TACOS!"

This is the latest distraction from low gas prices, a good jobs report, inflation decreasing and another attempt to keep Democrats from voting in the Midterms. With democracy on the line, you see all this noise is being ratcheted up by leftists, far right agitators and of course the "do something" celebrities.

Ignore the noise.

Vote.

If the Republicans get back into power, we will have another deadly insurrection which could uproot democracy. Do not allow media agitators depress the vote.

Black women know what they're talking about. They see the writing on the wall.

White leftists and their enablers are going to let Republicans win with all their noise.

I am reminded that America did not vote for a populist. They voted for a rational boring guy. The very same pearl clutching agitators who call immigrants, aliens are upset over tacos.

The person who represents the National Association of Hispanic Journalists decided to tweet a remark that went viral. The remark says she said courtesy of The White House.

Like all of you, Joe and I think about those families—and all who carry that grief—every day.  

Softball Hannity whines about Biden's remarks.

When we were leaving the school, someone shouted “Do something!” And I’m proud that Joe has. He will continue to do everything he can and to call on Congress to act, including on measures that ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. 

We are committed to building a safer, healthier, more prosperous, and fair America. 

And I know that Unidos is as well—and has been since the very start. 

In fact, I was reminded of the transformational power of this organization when Joe awarded your longtime leader, Raul Yzaguirre, the Presidential Medal of Freedom, our country’s highest civilian honor. 

Raul has dedicated his life to working for so many civil liberties: from fighting poverty to improving education to advancing voting rights. But one of the most powerful things that he did through this organization was to bring the Latino community together. Because he understood that unity is powerful. And he challenges us to be just as brave and bold.

It’s a reminder that we all need—now more than ever.   

A little over a month ago, I had the opportunity to give a commencement to Los Angeles City College students. The crowd was a majority Latino, but the students didn’t share one story. 

There were immigrants, and first-generation Americans, and Angelenos whose families have lived on this land since long before it was called the United States. There were engineers and artists, veterans and students who are going on to four-year colleges. 

They didn’t share one path or dream. But as I saw the joy in their faces, I could see that they did have one thing in common: Each of them will bring exceptional gifts and talents to their corner of our country—and will make their community stronger by being a part of it.

Yes, the Latino community is unique. But what I’ve heard from you again and again is that you want what all families want. Good schools. Good jobs. Safe neighborhoods. 

You want justice and equality—the opportunity to build a better life for your families.

It’s not only what all families want; it’s what all families deserve. But we can’t get those things on our own.

Raul helped build this organization with the understanding that the diversity of this community—as distinct as the bodegas of the Bronx, as beautiful as the blossoms of Miami, and as unique as the breakfast tacos here in San Antonio—is your strength. 

And yet, it’s when you speak with one voice—unidos—that you find your power.   
Thanks to the hard work of you and advocates across the country, we have torn down so many of the barriers that kept Latinos out of our seats of power. But your voice hasn’t always been listened to, has it? 

So the unique as the breakfast tacos got NAHJ's panties in a bunch. She did not refer Latinx voters to being tacos. She was talking breakfast tacos being a part of San Antonio's culture.

Of course they responded in snarky fashion.

“NAHJ encourages Dr. Biden and her speech writing team to take the time in the future to better understand the complexities of our people and communities,” NAHJ said.

It it started from a Karen working at the far right Media Research Center.

They take a 45 minute speech by the First Lady and they clipped 45 seconds.

They end up making this the news instead of the president and first lady's commitment to diversity and openness.

Republicans are a white nationalist party. About 94% of the party is white. The party is trying to male small inroads with Hispanic and Black voters. They are trying to court them with culture wars and Biden's agenda not moving fast enough.

I am sick and tired of the noise. I am not going to allow all these phony scandals depress me from voting. 

If you're outraged over tacos, wait til the Republicans take away your rights to freely protest, your right to marry, your right to film police, your right to privacy, your right to vote and your right to fair representation.

The Supreme Court will take up immigration, civil rights, filming police activity, gay marriage and state powers when it comes to redistricting in the next session.

A 6-3 decision could impact American democracy as we know it.
