    This is a joke. Right?

    Black Californians warn Newsom of 'direct impact' on Harris after Democrats kill slave reparation bills

    Black activists issue warning for Kamala Harris after California legislature kills two reparations bills

    Black activists at the California assembly threatened a "direct impact" on Vice President Harris' presidential campaign after state Democratic lawmakers held off on two bills that would have greenlighted slavery reparations.

    Last week, the California legislature approved proposals allowing for the return of land or compensation to families whose property was unjustly seized by the government, and issuing a formal apology for laws and practices that have harmed Black people. But none of those bills would provide widespread direct payments to African Americans. After hours of heated debate and protests on Saturday, state lawmakers left out two bills – Senate Bills 1403 and 1331 – that would have created a fund and an agency to oversee reparation measures.

      I’m thinking she’ll win California even if a handful of butthurt never-been-slaves don’t vote for her.

          Mmmm, I’ve read up a bit on this, and it could have a bigger impact than you think. While the Assembly chose not to advance anything regarding reparations, they did advance new programs that will provide up to $150,000 in grants for illegals to purchase homes, and will provide free college in California for illegals. The blacks in CA are upset as hell with the democrats, and that could easily spread to other states. This could have profound implications.

                "The governor needs to understand the world is watching California and this is gonna have a direct impact on your friend Kamala Harris who is running for president. This is going to have a direct impact, so pull up the bills now, vote on them and sign them. We’ve been waiting for over 400 years."

                That’s gotta be extra tiresome.

                  Interesting to think about the fact that all the black people who want reparations would never have existed were it not for chattel slavery.

                    Implemented under British rule.

                    Freed by republicans.

                    Let's make sure the tab is picked up by the right people.

                      Keep thinking like that and you'll end up a pro-lifer.
