in 2023.

Rep. Eli Crane, a member of the hard-right House Freedom Caucus, referred to Black people as "colored people" today, in 2023, in America.

It was one of a variety of Republican-proposed amendments to the defense bill that dealt with culture war issues. And towards the end of a spirited debate, the Arizona Republican argued that his amendment wasn't about race.

"My amendment has nothing to do with whether or not colored people..."


Democratic Rep. Joyce Beatty of Ohio, a Black woman, moved "to have the words 'colored people' struck from the record. I find it offensive, and very inappropriate. I am asking for unanimous consent to take down the words of referring to me, or any of my colleagues, as 'colored people.'"

Crane then attempted to amend his remarks to "people of color".

"I asked unanimous consent, Mr. Speaker, to have the words stricken," Beatty replied. "I didn't ask to have the words amended."

But, hey, back to your rationalizing that Republicans saved the CRA.

Or somethng.

Better to use whatever the Great White Fathers on the Left tell us.

"People of Color"

And their favorite...

"African American Males"

Sadly, the White Liberal Fathers will never ever let some people be "men", period.

But then again that's how they have subjugated an entire race for 50 years, taught them how anything from SATs to AIDS is purposely rigged against them.

As Liberal Stalin taught - if you pull feathers off a bird one by one, the poor bird wont get mad - - he'll be thankful that your palm provides him warmth.

"It's how the sausage is made" - at the new age Plantation Owners of America - White Liberals.
