Rep. Barbara Lee: “I was walking to the Capitol and a man stopped me, a white guy, and told me I could not get into the members’ elevator...He told me it was for members only. I said, 'Sir, I’m a member of Congress' and showed him my pin. And...

She's right, racism does exist. Just not the way she portrays it.

Was he wearing a MAGA hat and carrying a Subway Sandwich Jussie?

So, we’re expected to believe a member of Congress, who has been a member of Congress since 1998, was walking to an elevator and was stopped by some mysterious White dude, who was all “you can’t come in here, GIRL!” and when she stood up for herself, everyone stood and clapped. That’s how it went.

Then, when she stepped into the elevator, she noticed a door pull shaped like a tiny noose that had undoubtedly been put there by some racist that knew she was going to be in there.

Prove it with the security video. Otherwise this is fake news.

This man was criticized for expecting a “thank you” for a good deed. He always saw the same man walking when he drove to work. He assumed the man was walking because he did not have any other means of transportation. He used his own money and bought the man an electric scooter, the man took the scooter and just silently walked away, no thank you or anything else at all. I don’t think that was too much to ask, a thank you goes a long way, otherwise it makes people look ungrateful. Back in college, I had a classmate that I always saw walking home after class. It didn’t matter whether it was raining or snowing, or hot out. Whenever I drove past him he always looked miserable and I could tell he didn’t like to walk all the time. In class I had asked him where he lived, and I found out it was on my way home so I offered to drop him off because it was really cold out and had snowed about a foot. He agreed and we chatted on the way home, nothing serious just pleasant conversation. I dropped him off and went on my way home. For me this was a one time thing, I only offered because how bad it was snowing. After class the next day, he walked with me and when I got to my car he got in. I didn’t agree or offer him a ride that day but he assumed that since I was ok with giving him a ride the day prior that I would be ok with it this day too. I didn’t say anything about it because at this point I didn’t care really. So the next day came and went, once again he walked with me to the car but that day was different. I wouldn’t be going his way because I had to work after class. So before I got to the car I said “I’ll see you tomorrow.” He looked dumbfounded and said aren’t you taking me home? I said no, I have to get to work. He then asked me how he would get home, and I told him the same way you always have. He then gave me excuses for why I was being a jerk because I was making him walk in the cold. I didn’t argue I just told him I helped him out when I could, but I wasn’t about to go out of my way because he didn’t have a car and besides I didn’t want to be late for work. He didn’t speak to me for the rest of the semester because of it, something tells me I was better off not offering to help in the first place.

Former Navy Seal, Doctor, and Astronaut, Jonny Kim (2020) recalls the day his drunk father pulled a gun on the family, and why fighting back left him feeling reborn "When my father died… I feel like it was the day I was reborn into someone else." "I think maybe he felt cornered… and cornered animals can be dangerous." "On this particular day… February 21st, 2002… my father came home… I could smell the whiskey on his breath, so I knew he was very intoxicated." "Some of the last words he said to me was, 'I'm sorry, Jonathan.' And he pepper-sprayed my face." "All I hear in the kitchen is my mother screaming for help and saying, 'he's got a gun.'" "I did my best to fight him and get that gun… as strong as I guess a 140-pound kid could do… But I lost that fight. I still have a scar… from when my father was able to get a hold of a dumbbell nearby and smash my head in with it." "I clearly remember saying that it's not too late. You have the power to decide right now. It's not too late." "I told him to go run, just run. And he did… that was the last time I saw my father." "I told police that I think my father's still in the house and he's in the attic… shots were fired and my father was killed." "I don't mean to sound callous, but in a lot of ways it liberated me… it liberated myself and my brother." "It taught me I'm not the scared little boy I thought I was… I can be a part of something bigger than myself." "The detective… said, 'Son, I'm sorry to tell you, but your father is dead.'… 'I take it that this is not bad news? Is this good?' And I said… 'I'm just relieved, sir.' And he said, 'I understand, son.'" "It's just a day… that helped me be reborn into the person I wanted to become."
