GOP Rep. Tim Burchett referred to Vice President Kamala Harris as a “DEI hire,” as she is on track to become the first woman of color nominated for president by a major party. #CNN #News
"Her record is abysmal at best" says Tim Burchett, the guy who prioritized the Refrigerator Freedom Act and the Dishwasher Standards Act over the DHS Appropriations and Coast Guard Authorization Acts.... because neutering the Department of Energy so his industry backers can do whatevs to the consumers he's supposed to be representing is apparently waaaaaaaaay more important than funding the groups responsible for protecting the security and integrity of our national borders.
@NovicePCBuilder "As VP" is an intentionally loaded and misdirecting question, since the Vice President is a support role with no legislative powers. She has, however, been very active doing the very things the VP position was created for -- since the Supreme Court overturned Roe V Wade she's taken the lead on the Democrat's fight for women's healthcare legislation, led the fight to codify voting rights for all Americans in legislation, and helped develop initiatives in Central America to improve work and living conditions sufficiently that citizens there do not feel the need to migrate to America. Are you opposed to healthcare, voting, or a reduction in immigration?
@NovicePCBuilder There's this thing called Google, you know.... but hey, I get it, you don't like her, and that's fine. I don't like Trump, and quite frankly the Democrats could run a mossy rock with googly eyes glued on it and I'd vote for that over four more minutes of Trump, much less four more years. Even if she were the most mediocre President ever or lapsed into a coma the day after Inauguration or spent four years just playing golf, she would still be leagues ahead of Trump and a thousand times less toxic, divisive, and damaging to this nation. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
They’re desperate for anyway to blame someone else for her failure as vice president. Her record in office isn’t going to be an issue if they can raise enough pity for her.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 KH, She has only 60% of the black vote and what about the independence do you really think any of them will vote for her, knowing how they did a SWITCHEROO and trying to cheat again...😅 In 2018 during a congressional hearing Kamala Harris compared "ICE" to the KKK.. We will debate on all the issues and when you try to bring up anything else we will pivot right back to all the issues that she is connected to with Joe Biden
Bigoted, not racist. Racist is limited to a person's race or ethnicity. Bigotry applies to *all things they don't agree with*. Maybe he's been in American Isis party obstructionism for so long it's like a natural reflex for him.
VERY!!! The first mistake was being so bold as to put Project 2025 in whiting ( I mean writing.. lol) for the world to see... "An idiot doesn't know when to shut his mouth" !
It's not sexism, neither men nor women respect a woman like Kamala. She slept with a bunch of old men when she was in her twenties to advance her career, and destroyed the marriage of a stay at home black mother with 3 kids.
@@2023_justice4all Pretty sure the bible has very little of jesus' *actual teachings*. Book was compiled from sources over 300 years *AFTER* his death by a group trying to shape the message they wanted to spread. SCOTUS even argues what The Constitution, Founding Fathers and the language was supposed to represent and we're nearly 1000 years after jesus and what is essentially the birth of christianity. That isn't even mentioning the additional confusion factor of *competing languages* used to try and compose (because very little actual authoring was done. Just a group of dudes saying, "this story is legit. Nah, leave that one out. Throw revelations in there just because the author's name is John, but we don't know if it's *The John*. But, how many John's can there be??") the text from Ancient Greek to Hebrew and then into Latin, over the course of 300+ years. Then you get into King James Version, Lutheran, the list goes on. How anyone believes anything in a bible is the true word of god is simply beyond me. Hello?! Mormons, anyone??!
Give up his christianity? Seems like he took the same play from a myriad of other historical religious figure's playbook: King James, Joseph Smith, Martin Luther...You take what you want and simply ignore the rest. Assuming you're a christian, how many people have you stoned in your life? I'm sure you abide by wearing tassels on all of your clothing and not mixing fabrics. Simply put: education is now, "woke", understanding history and historical context is "bourgeois", as well as speaking and thinking critically in the face of fascist and bigoted, uneducated speech. Religion has a very long history of being usurped for personal gain and power ambitions and this is no different. The only case with christianity is that if you don't agree with certain parts or how it's being messaged, you can simply say, "I'm going to start my own sect and say I still talk to the jesus because I hear him in my heart!" The best part? Just before you die all you have to do is ask the jesus for repentance and you're in heaven for eternity! Sounds like a pretty good deal, to me! Oh, by the way, the whole concept of Heaven, after life, etc...was not even an idea jesus had. That was a manifestation a few hundred years after jesus. Hell, the whole idea of revelation times has been around a few hundred years after jesus died. We've basically been living in a perpetual revelation holding pattern. Doomsdayers will always be a part of any society that has a christian member in it.
The conversation should be: Is she strong enough to heal the USA. Stop focusing on race and gender. Is she right for the country. She definitely has integrity. She was also a strong senator. Focus on her as a great candidate to lead the country.
@@TheDarkRodent The latter but a whole bunch of white men in America are literal DEI hires. plenty of them incompetent so its funny that we talk about DEI when it comes to minorities. White men have benefited from DEI for centuries.
@@TheDarkRodent I'd want someone who is capable, whereas you people clearly assume that a black neurosurgeon would only be there because they're black. DEI and affirmative action are about choices from among qualified candidates, not elevating the unqualified above the qualified.
@@burntorangehorn. Now who is the racist? Both affirmative action and DEI fly in the face of the civil rights legislation that we have all bought so hard to have implemented at both the state and federal level. Our state and federal laws make it illegal or a person to be hired or promoted based on race, sex, nation, origin, sexual preference, etc. Both affirmative action and DEI is a form of government discrimination because race, sex, national origin and sexual identity give some protected class individuals preference. Both affirmative action and DEI are illegal under our law.
@@AlbertBormant False. She actually earned her way, unlike the one who only got to be president because he was a rich white boy who inherited hundreds of millions and a huge real estate portfolio.
It would be nice when your party makes that admission. It's not us running around saying "people of color or brown people". That's you. ..or lying about their candidate's race because it is not a powerful enough flex. That's called exploitation. ..and again, insulting to actual asian people, who apparently aren't good enough for the job. Evil, hateful racists. Look in the mirror.
British person here. We just had a Hindu Prime Minister of South Asian descent. He celebrated Diwali with his family on the steps of 10 Downing Street. No fuss, no bother. Why are these 20th century issues still such a problem for the US? Don't you get tired of it all?
It was ABSOLUTELY an issue. Don't pretend it wasn't. He was also NEVER voted-for as Prime Minister by the people; he took over from Truss. He lost massively in the only election he faced as Prime Minister.
And what’s his record of achievements??? After only being in office a hot minute, he is a joke not a leader at all. Look how he cried like a baby when McCarthy pushed him…
The GOP is soooooo desperate and ignorant. Keep talking trash like this and you all will be out of a job. WE WILL MAKE SURE OF IT at the ballot box. Voting is our power. 💙🇺🇲💙🇺🇲💙🇺🇲💙🇺🇲
Biden announced he was going to pick a black woman, that's why she got the job. Burchette had the balls to say it. The Black Caucus demanded it, or they'd withhold support. You guys did this.
She won't be handling the reigns, she's a mere figurehead just like Joe. Look at the people behind her, starting with her husband. They're handling the reigns.
Joe Biden's presidential hopes were DOA in 2020. Until Black folks in the South Carolina primary led by Jim Clyburn gave him in much needed shot of adrenaline! So there was nothing wrong with Joe Biden giving back to people who helped him. That happens in politics all the time. But it's only a problem when black people are involved!
Trump is in panic mode. Don't forget, he still has to face his indictments. I'm sure he 's on the hotline to Vladdy asking him to ramp up election interference
The man talks about Kamala yet he can’t button his jacket right! The hypocrisy you cant use bottons but you feel comfortable calling out other people smh….
Harris, served as Vice President, served in the DA's office of San Francisco, was elected as Attorney General of California, and was elected as and served as a senator from California. That's quite a bit of experience in serving the U.S.A. What did trump do before becoming a president? He was a TV personality. His experience with the law was suing anyone he could and breaking the law.
@@patriots6552 look where I got Tim Scott. Had him tap dancing all around Trump and ended up with nothing. So you keep up the show and hanging out with people that really don’t like you. Talk about DEI
They explained it. You were not listening. Trump is not qualified to think yet the poorly educated fawn over him. Smile. The fact that Joe stepped down is wonderful.
And what has Trump done for Black men and women? Take out full page ads calling for their deaths in cases where they were actually innocent? Refusing to rent to them in NYC? Accusing Obama of lying about his birth certificate?
She did her job... i'm black and I aint mad at her... she followed the law.,.. So imagine the law when Trump wins. The will start shooting us like the did Miss Massey!
I'm curious to know in what respect you think she is less qualified to be VP than Dan Quayle, Al Gore , Mike Pence, Walter Mondale... Charles Curtis... Levi Morten...? Because if you have multiple candidates for a role, who are more than qualified, it isn't unreasonable to add other selection criteria, especially in a role that is intended to represent the population of an entire country. So who do you think was unfairly displaced by her selection by Biden? Name him.
@@damianeadie510 This is completely Biden's fault for saying he would only pick a black woman to be his Vice President. He didn't have to say anything, and just picked Kamala and not created this issue.
@@jimmeltonbradley1497Educate yourself ... Mexico made a deal with Trump tô place 26 thousand soldiers in northen Mexico tô watch over the illegals that were In the "Wait in Mexico" program
You really don’t know? Saying she was a DEI hire is racist and misogynistic in that she only got where she is because she is a black woman, not because she is competent and qualified. Y’all are so deep into this, you can’t even see who you really are.
Damn near every delegate in America has backed Harris’ candidacy. Ask any democrat or independent, I’d put money down that they agree with this move. The GOP is just worried that Harris is going to wipe the floor with drumpf 😂
@@jonescharley2105REAL BLACK MEN PROTECT WOMEN KIDS AND THE ELDERLY, U clearly not real or A MAN, dismiss yourself as a BLACK MAN who PROTECTS I WILL BE VOTING FOR KAMALA HARRIS
You really don't have a clue what the "V" in VP stands for, now. Do you?! Or what a "ticket" is..... Be honest my friend: for how long have you advocated that Biden was far too old? 🤔 😅
The more this guy opens his mouth the more 2016 he sounds. The more he talks the greater the disservice, the greater the insult young Southern voters will see and feel. He and his ilk will be voted out.
Murders are already illegal, and reparations are an insulting concept. The hate crime thing is a hollow gesture, and nobody intends to give reparations.
@@AmericanInBrazil458 he's still President. He will still be working hard for the American people and not just for himself. He'll be working hard to get Kamala elected. Bottom line, Biden makes a decision to help our chances at beating Trump.
The democrats just subverted thier own primary election, removing thier own 🥔candidate. But they would never r1g the 2020, that's a rscist conspiracy theory.🧂🧂🇺🇸
You're feeling scared, huh? There was a primary. Voters voted for the Biden/Harris ticket. Your argument if Biden died would be no one elected her president. This is a red herring argument. You're mad because all of the negatives of Biden just got transferred to Trump. She's his worst enemy, a woman that stands up for herself, just like E Jean Carroll. Don't cry... Trump's been losing for almost 10 years now. He's only won 1 general election.
For the love of God pick mark kelly for vp we need a fighter , pilot, combat vet, space shuttle commander ,and a gun owner who can talk about it . There are lots of dem gun owners I am one we need to win them back. Let's be smart and sensible. Everyone else is too soft or establishment and everyone is sick of that. Let's go!
If Kamala picked AOC for the youth vote - would you support her? 2 tough smart strong woman demanding equality. Kamala got Biden the westcoast vote, AOC would get the east coast and the whole country of young voters.
Of course, folk like Vance and Trump are quite simply entitled to whatever position in Government they aspire to (regardless of the actual outcome of an election, even). A woman on the other hand, and especially a colored woman, should always be gratefull for working in Government, regardless of their capabilities, their hard work or their accomplishments.....
The thing is, she doesn't have any accomplishments. She has not proven to be capable in the least. And the only hard work she has put in was in Willie Brown bed.

She will win because of it. The alternative is the dumbest President in American history. Americans want Trump in prison. Not running for office skirting prison.
Enough of the spin and lies! Are you all NOT exhausted and tired of these hate and divisive rhetorics! America doesn’t need leaders who want this nation divided and in chaos…Vote for unity and decency, Vote BLUE!
You can't have it both ways. When you hire someone based on their race and/or gender, you can't complain about people raising the issue of race and/or gender. . .
There’s a difference between hiring someone exclusively because of their race/gender and aiming to find someone with the right background who can perform the job at a high level while also adding an important and previously-untapped perspective. That’s called a “good hiring.”
Joe Biden never, ever said he was gonna "hire" anyone Tim... especially a Vice President. Evidently you've confused trump with our President once again.🤨
