A radical Democrat congresswoman used Independence Day to demand reparations on Twitter. Congresspeople are earning $174,000 salary right now, so talking about free money just totally fits the Democrat narrative. As many people know, slavery was abolished in 1865 and no living people today owned any slaves from that time period. And, no living people today were slaves in that time period either. Therefore no one today should be paying any reparations to people who were never slaves. The days of old are behind us and we’re moving forward. It’s time for Democrats to stop giving and looking for handouts and consider telling their voters to start working a little bit harder to get ahead in life.
With that said, it was Democrat Cori Bush who made the horrendous statement on the 4th of July and was rightfully mocked right after she posted. It said: “The Declaration of Independence was written by enslavers and didn’t recognize Black people as human. Today is a great day to demand Reparations Now.”
Some of the replies are below. These replies are put in quotes with the username who posted it. This is how the common people responded when Cori Bush demanded reparation handouts instead of telling her voters to work hard and do great things in life. This is the just one subtle difference between Democrats and Republicans. Watch this video about Cori Bush:
Enjoy the comments from the Twitter thread:
Brenden Dilley: “gOoD oNe cORi! AyOu tElL tHoSe mEaN oLd wHiTe pEoPlE!”
ALX: “cringe” and “Demand reparations from Obama“
Cernovich: “Who sold them the slaves, and should they also pay reparations?”
Benny Johnson: “I will personally out of my own bank account pay for a raft to send you on a one way trip to Cuba where you can enjoy the Marxism you so crave. Win win for all of us”
Chelle: “This right here is why Hispanics are leaving the democrat party in mass. Cory is the epitome of keeping us on a plantation and is representing the new slave owners.”
Melissa Tate: “Everyone in the world gets reparations then b/c EVERY race, including whites, has been enslaved at one point of another. Black people in America owned slaves too. Arabs are buying African slaves in 2023.. why don’t you raise awareness about that Cori?” And: “Pure trash. How far this country has fallen when people like this are elected to office.”
Boss Babe: “I want reparations from you. It was BLM AND ANTIFA that torched, looted, and destroyed public and private property. BLM embezzled money from their donations. Not one dime made it to a Black community that was destroyed by you through your support of these thugs. You spew hatred and divisiveness. You are racist and unfit to serve the public. You are bad for society as a whole. You are shameless and choose to roll around in self pity making yourself a victim. You got there because of your own poor decisions, your own ignorance and your own laziness. You inspire no one.”
Washingtons Ghost: “Leave then. Stop extracting and providing absolutely nothing of value to American society.”
John Strand: “You’re a disgusting race baiter and dishonest propaganda scammer. Today is a great day, period—because America was founded on equality AND meritocracy, and we are ever-closer to that ideal than any other nation in history…a subject you are failing miserably.”
Xi Van Fleet: “You are a Communist grifter, @CoriBush. While the Declaration of Independence is a gift to humanity seeking freedom, the Communist Manifesto is a guarantee for enslavement. The Reparation you will get under Communism is the plantation called Gulag.“
Dewey Finn: “The Constitution was the one document that made it possible for America to end slavery within 100 years of the founding of the country. Slavery still exists around the world in countries that had it before America was born. This doesn’t even address s-x slavery and trafficking including children that is running rampant here thanks to a reckless open border.”
Jeffrey Floyd: “There is so much wrong with this statement. If you had actually studied the history of the convention, you would know that many signers debated the issue of slavery. It nearly derailed the entire debate over Independence. And yes, America paid a bloody cost by deferring the issue for 80 years. But continue to ignore the truth and spread lies for political and monetary gain. The majority of people don’t take you seriously.”
Blue Starr: “You write this crap on Independence Day? If you don’t like it here, get out and don’t come back.”
Mike Ray: “Glad to see a slave made it to congress. Oh wait you weren’t a slave so what you want reparations for. You seem to be doing better than most white people sitting up on your high horse acting like you are oppressed.”
