on Thursday over objections from Republicans. Pence voted no, saying he opposes changes to the qualified immunity system that shields officers from liability.
Elliott, 69, has also been traveling to Black Lives Matter protests around the district, which includes Little Rock and its suburbs and has been represented by a Republican for more than a decade. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the kidney donor speaks to crowds from the back of a pickup truck, often to predominantly white audiences. She tells her story of overcoming adversity, mentioning the people in school who didn’t want her or other Black students there.
“I’m feeling now as if a door has opened,” Elliott said. “People can look at someone like me and say, ‘Why not Joyce Elliott? Isn’t she the right person for this moment?’”
The race card is all they have. Trump 2020
This is all you have to know.
_Politics Typical that it’s the RACE of the candidate that matters not what they stand for....hell’s bells..
_Politics Blacks are NOT stupid they get what’s going on and will vote Republican in mass come November!
Never let a good crisis go to waste
I think they have read the situation badly....most people see these last few weeks as terror and violence
The racist part here is thinking Black candidates are only Democrats.
“Never let a good crisis go to waste” - Democrats
The Issue is Never the Issue
So in other words the Democrat party accepts that they’ve been playing and using people to get funds through BLM for their campaigns and NOT TO HELP BLM AT ALL!!!
Silly to support a political party which has failed minority communities vote the same get the same
How about you guys first deciding on a presidential candidate that cares about racial equality, not someone who thinks what happened 300 years ago has no relevance to him. Is this the best guy to represent you? Hell, even Obama didn't do much for you.
Black people should be more focused on black on black crimes and killing THEN unite against racism
Vote democrat and we can destroy the whole country and we'll be the ones getting deported trying to leave this country.
I'm sure the Republicans just want to go back. No thank you
Certainly, the media's campaign to inflame racial tensions is, in reality, nothing more than a get-out-the-vote campaign for Joe Biden.
Lol... u think this “movement” is still about equality and justice? 😆🙄
In the world, money and power are not the only values. The most important value is that I am born and raised as a person, It is a way to survive with human love and tenderness. Life is wonderful because there are so many things. It is best to cherish your own heart.
The President of the United States is a racist!
I see a lot of Black Republican candidates out there too and in red states. Many of them have my support but unfortunately they’re not in my districts so I can’t vote for them. But I would for many of them if I could. There is no reason more minorities can’t run as conservatives
So we should vote because of skin color? Not for leadership!
Racial Marxism. Get ready, these numbers are going to start getting a lot worse than they already are...
Hasn't 55 years of Affirmative Action , special treatment, addressed the inequalities? Damn how many more non black more qualified people been denied College, Jobs and promotion for racial quotas? Don't black people ever get tired of blaming others for their failures? Shame
Now is admitting it’s all about elections 😀
Well given that all the money raised by the BLM movement is being funnelled into the DNC and its candidates they certainly have enough money to fund their campaigns to win seats.
The only black legislator to do anything for black Americans is Tim Scott....Obama ruined it for minorities.
The Democratic Party message to White women...we know you’ve been a big part of us for a long time....we also know you’re nothing but r—-t s—-m who’s every achievement has been because of white privledge..but come Nov we know we can count on you..we got your back!
Black candidates will get my vote when they begin addressing this sort of violence. Solving this is the hard work, because it requires taking a long look at yourself and your community. Police are just an easy target for quick political gain.
Bullsshit all this BLM is getting out of hand now
The BlackLivesMatter movement are the puppets of richer, more powerful masters. Just watch videos of the 'protestors'. They have failed to win people to their cause. But they've been a very effective Distraction. 🤔
Blacks have been voting Democrat for decades and have nothing to show for it. Maybe it's time for a change?
JohnJamesMI is an African American veteran and entrepreneur running against a white Democrat in the US Senate. No coverage on his candidacy from the media, though. 🤔
Economic collapse No jobs coming back Companies filing for bankruptcy Unemployment ending.... Rent protection ending 🔜 They are going to keep this up until November? rentisdue stimuluschecks ❓
'The reenergized movement FOR racial inequality'. NOBODY hides this FACT but it doesn't keep you from trying. money can't fix stupid, stupid. can't fix racism either. only parents can.
Hahaaha. How you figure?
Democrats will do anything for power . Investigate Impeachment Riot Protest
So long as the DNC has most of the media in their pockets I’m sure they will do well.
Anyone need anymore proof the last month has been nothing but another political stunt by the unhinges left?
They need to flip their own democratic seats first. That is where they have been failed.
Even Though We Seem Different To Each Other, We Bleed, We Bleed, The Same Color: song tribute to George Floyd:
This is a mute point but worth saying; the democrat party is completely corrupt.
