Here’s how CA Legislative Black Caucus leaders responded when I asked about how the group blocked their own reparations bills last year, after a CLBC member got a bill passed allowing a billionaire’s club to be the only one in California to serve alcohol until 4am.

This is the Democrat Party in a nutshell. When it comes to Illegal Alien Latinos & Democrat Billionaires, they pass bills lightning quick BUT when it comes to doing something for Black Americans specifically, they have EVERY EXCUSE in the world. I’m so SICK of these DEVILS.

If Ashley is too intimidating for the press conference speakers, why hold one at all? Strange.

LOL so I guess they’re missing the point on purpose the point is it’s not hard to get things to pass when you want it to pass asap and when it benefits cronies And billionaires and has nothing to do with the average California and there well-being. Like that can be done within a day, but when it comes to getting a bill to move through committees - something that you say is a historic monumental crisis in California that will help a particular demographic - you guys sit around and spin your wheels make up excuse after excuses, and basically play politics with something you demagogue. But when it’s time to put your money where your mouth is you’re a bunch of fakers

The democrats are going the way of the dinosaurs. Benign neglect is a helluva drug. Good riddance per the grassroots.

Wow! As a staunch reparations advocate, the CLBC should be absolutely. ASHAMED of themselves. They are all bought and paid for political puppets. This is WHY it is important for grassroots reparationists to get in front of every single effort and not let these shills pretend like they care about us. Unbelievable

Thank you so much!!!! Bryan is a disrespectful PUNK! His actions are a big reason why I voted Republican down ballot in Nov2024. He keeps this up and I will continue to be anti-Democrat just like the democrats are anti-Black

CA needs an Ashley revolution. Everyone needs to start questioning authority to surface all the hypocrisy and dysfunction. It won’t stop until forced be sheer will of the people.

CAUGHT ON TAPE BLOCKING REPARATIONS: Disgraced Assemblyman Isaac Bryan (Isaac G. Bryan) was captured on cellphone footage willfully, intentionally, and deliberately obstructing Assemblyman Bill Essayli (Bill Essayli) from approaching the Speaker of the House to introduce the Reparations Bills #SB1403 and #SN1331. In a troubling move, the California House Speaker turned off the Assembly In-House Cameras, preventing the public from seeing what was happening on the floor. When Bryan realized he was being filmed on a cellphone camera, he became aggressive, confronting Essayli and accusing him of not supporting reparations. However, it was Assemblyman Essayli who had called for the reparations bills to be brought to the floor after the California Legislative Black Caucus refused to support them for a vote. The Democratic Party of California and the California Legislative Black Caucus blocked these bills from being signed.

CAUGHT! Chair of the California Legislative Black Caucus California Legislative Black Caucus Akilah Weber-Pierson MISLEADS the state Senate Education Committee by telling Senators her bill to divert millions of taxpayer dollars originally budgeted for Reparations implementation away from implementing Reparations and instead to a multi-million dollar genealogy research project (with no start date and no end date) at California colleges, universities, and non profits was recommended by California's Reparations Task Force! Watch: In this clip, the Chair READS from the Reparations Task Force’s report. The part she READS from is a recommendation calling for the creation of a STATE AGENCY and a Genealogy Office to give PEOPLE access to genealogy services (she leaves THAT PART out), and then CLAIMS what she is reading is about her genealogy research study project bill giving millions of dollars California colleges, universities and non profits.

At about 4am on the Senate floor I asked my Republican colleagues: how rich is too rich to get a giant tax giveaway? I thought we could all agree someone making $100 million doesn’t need one, but they blocked it. That’s ridiculous.
