Sens. Duckworth, Hirono Drop Objections To Biden Nominees After Urging AAPI Representation
BEST QUALIFIED – LEVEL PLAYING FIELD. = NO RACIAL DISCRIMINATION. .
Biden is probably thinking, maybe this wasn’t a good idea, retirement, playing fetch with the dog wasn’t bad. Everyone wants something, the Kamala effect has worn off.
Time to stop, enough is enough.
Just identify as Asian. Problem solved.
Herrrro!!
Duckworth may not have understood it while in Uniform; but she WASN’T blown up & injured bcz she was an “Asian” soldier; but bcz she was perceived as an AMERICAN soldier. Clearly, they perceived WRONG.
This is a pitiful lame attack. May you find your way into the light : (
@Susie Bigelow how is it an attack? It’s the truth she was in the military as an American soldier, not an Asian woman. Facts my dear find the light!
@Susie Bigelow TAmmy DuckWorthless lost more than 2 legs. SHe lost her mind. SHe is a blatant RACIST!
he did have a South Aisan but had to withdraw bc senate didnt have votes to confirm her
Glad they are stopping their reverse racism. It is time to hire qualified people no matter what color their skin is!!!
Reverse? It’s just straight up racism.
@Terra812 exactly. It’s sickening
Let’s be real, the last thing Biden is gonna do hire qualified people. It’s either establishment crooks, diversity hires or a combination of the two.
@Puking Panda Trump just hired the crooks. I wish we got Bernie for President instead of Biden, but the establishment wouldn’t allow that.
Wow so basically discriminate against white people, insane
At least we now know that Hirono and Duckworth are racist!
That threat is racist and disgusting they should be kicked out of their seats ASAP!
The democrats determination to divide is disgusting!
The left is f**king insane!
She said she would oppose all non white candidates until her demands were met and that it wasn’t a strange position to have. Hilarious show of outright racism promoted by the media. Just stop
Backing off open racism. 😂
Hmm racist hiring policies don’t seem to make much of a fuss anymore.
“So woke you’re racist.”
Want to end racism? Quit making it the focus of freaking EVERYTHING!
Explain how using race in any form in hiring decisions is not racist. Amazing.
I guess she figured out she doesn’t have a le………. I can’t finish this.
The joke is on them, as Hawaiians and Blacks in Illinois are exterminated with the Covid bioweapon vaccines. Karma comes quickly…
