“Insight” from Democrat Congressperson
Holy Toledo. This woman serves in The United States House of Representatives. She’s not somebody’s drunk aunt, or a wild eyed drug-addled conspiracy-screaming homeless person, or even a Sociology professor.
She’s a congressperson. Holy Toledo. I don’t even know how to respond to this. The police engage in government funded murder. Because America is inherently racist. So no more police, and no more jails. Right. Ok. That should go well. Brilliant idea.
The Democrat Party has serious problems.

They all live in a glass house.
She vexes me – I can’t tell is she believes this nonsense or not. But she seems unassailable due to her strange status.
Hasn’t happened yet. Do you still hold out hope?
And who would she call if her own car were stolen, or something? Ghostbusters? They don’t exist either!
Criminals do indeed fear and hate the police. As do Marxist revolutionaries. She is one of the latter and he natural constituents include the former.
But who does she think will protect her from her constituents, when they come for HER?
I believe she’ll be counting on the Cheka (or the American equivalent) for her protection…
That’s how all Marxists think.
And then it turns out that since the regular people have been disarmed, it’s the Cheka that comes for them.
I’m not on Facebook or Twitter but I understand there is a (probably small?) movement to not call the police over property crimes. If someone steals your stuff it is more honorable to let them, then to call the police and be a snitch. I suppose to the socialists, possessions are a crime, so maybe you deserve to have your property stolen.
As long as whoever stole them doesn’t keep them as their own possessions, I suppose.
But if the police aren’t around period – defunded, etc – then they aren’t around if you get attacked, your children kidnapped, etc.
Each time that Glaude opens his mouth (which is most of the time) he betrays an ignorance that is hard to fathom. And this from The James S. McDonnell Distinguished University Professor of African American Studies at Princeton University. (Where the tuition is close to $55,000 per year.)
“We have to be honest with ourselves”. Good Lord, what a pompous buffoon; no wonder that the vacuous twit Nicolle Wallace hangs on to his every word.
Virtually any field with “Studies” in the name is not scholarship but malevolent propaganda and a jobs program for parasitic mediocrities.
And grifters; don’t forget the grifters.
The Left is one-third grifters, one-third lunatics, and one-third power-mad monsters.
This is a pretty dense discussion, but I would recommend trying to listen to it. It’s only 10 minutes.

Not too long after I sent Ricochet money somebody endorsed John Batchelor and I’ve listened almost every day since.
It’s the greatest thing, because he breaks up the podcast for every guest and topic. He just gets wonderful people, and he’s so damn smart himself. It’s a super easy way to get more educated, as well.
