Biden’s Executive Orders Today On Racial Equity 'A Great Initial Start' | Andrea Mitchell | MSNBC
He’s having a good start, what you mean if he’s going far enough
Biden: *bombs syria!*
MSM defending him: “Trump didn’t bomb Syria as much as he was supposed to, so now Biden has to bomb them twice as much.”
In other words symbolism is not enough but it is a good start. After 400 years of systemic racism specifically against black people putting tubman on the $20 is nice but it’s like trying to put out a fire with a cup of water. More is needed.
@halalslagt en dansk panser og gør Allah glad Biden has not taken any actions in Syria so your really inside a fake news bubble, and if he does do a drone strike against ISIS or other terrorists then that is fine.
Someone please get the mic away from Andrea’s dry mouth.
It sound like she was chewing in my ear 😩
@askari thagreat It’s terrible and happens all the time.
Lmao 🤣
Hey msnbc, any Asian being interviewed for Asian Executive Order for equality? No?
@SMS do you see any Asian being interviewed for the anti racism against Asian?????
@Lily Jade Are you predicting that he made all of his choices? Isn’t Kamala Harris part Asian? Got you there did I. I think your being a bit premature. Furthermore, name a few candidates that are Asian that you think he should have picked?
@SMS Ya she is technically Asian… She has also locked up more black dudes than the entire Republican Party… So careful my dude, she’s not your champion
@Joshua Buffalo I’m sure you’ve been told this, but you seem to take pleasure in the negative things and not positive. Why is that?
@SMS did you read what my first comment said? I ask why there weren’t any Asian Reporting.
Oh my gosh woman stop smacking your lips…that’s all you can hear
Omg can someone please get her some water?? Geeeeeeez
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This land is your land, this land is my land.
Hypocrites.
He’s already doing more than what Obama did.
Unbelievable!

Ah, here is where our money will go: Sec. 6(b) “allocating Federal resources in a manner that increases investment in underserved communities, as well as individuals from those communities. “
“The Ballot or the Bullet”
In his famous “Ballot or the Bullet” speech given in the spring of 1964 at King Solomon Baptist Church in Detroit one month after splitting with the Nation Of Islam, Malcolm X said: “The political philosophy of Black nationalism only means that the Black man should control the politics and the politicians in his own community. The time when white people can come in our community and get us to vote for them so that they can be our political leaders and tell us what to do and what not to do is long gone.”
— Malcolm X
“Equal housing?” Are we really here again?
Guess 2007-2008 wasn’t enough.
You can’t legislate equality while leaving people out. That’s not equality.
Communist Chinese bioweapon released – Communist Chinese puppet installed :-/
This host is just the worst…
On the subject matter however, ending the use of private prisons is amazing! Still a lot of work to do, but it’s a great first step.
Needs to mute herself if she’s going to eat or drink off-screen. That was annoying.
You have a job. This is the land of opportunity not handouts. Handouts is vote purchasing. Create an economy not a welfare state.
NOT MY PRESIDENT
