Some Republicans would rather Black Americans pick cotton than pick their Congressperson. They want politicians to decide who their voters are, instead of the voters determining who their Representatives are. We must use every tool available to defend the sacred right to vote.

This is exactly why so many Americans are exhausted with modern political discourse. Ayanna Pressley jumped straight to slavery imagery and cotton fields because emotional shock rhetoric is easier than defending outcomes. Nobody said Black Americans cannot vote. Nobody removed voting rights. Nobody reinstated segregation. Nobody stopped Black Americans from electing representatives. The actual legal debate is about whether race should dominate the drawing of political districts. But instead of discussing constitutional law honestly, Democrats escalate immediately to slavery comparisons because fear and outrage are politically useful. And here is the deeper irony… If Ayanna Pressley truly cared about the condition of Black Americans, where is this level of passion for: Black overdose victims? Black fatherlessness? Black literacy collapse? Black on Black shootings? Black business flight from unsafe neighborhoods? Black children trapped in failing schools? The destruction of the nuclear family? Those crises are measurable. They are devastating. And they are happening right now in many Democrat controlled cities. Yet somehow every conversation circles back to race based political mobilization instead of tangible community restoration. Reducing Black Americans to permanent victims needing political guardianship is insulting. Black Americans are fully capable of thinking independently, voting independently, succeeding independently, and disagreeing with Democrat ideology without being treated like traitors to their race. This kind of rhetoric is not unity. It is emotional manipulation wrapped in historical trauma. #SilentMajoritySpeaks #AStoneGroove

What a crock of shit, you anti-American, race baiting cunt. 🖕🏼

Your party chose a crazy white woman over a qualified black woman Spare us your racism and cotton picking bullshit

Maybe your deck should contain other cards than just 52 race cards, but I guess you'd have no idea how to play something else.

You’re a liar. No black Americans have lost their right to vote.

Right on brand for you and your ilk to dishonor those who suffered under slavery for your own political expediency. This is a disgusting and historically illiterate conflation, and you are a ghoul and an embarrassment

Court: "Creating congressional districts based on the race of the voters is racist and illegal." Rep. Pressley: "It's just like slavery!" Hilariously, Democrats DID decide who voters were, creating black-majority segregated districts. The court correctly declared that racist.

@Nederland1965 You’re an embarrassment. Remember the court knocked it down because it’s not legal. Black Americans can vote for whoever they want. Democrats really are mentally deranged.

You supported this guy and let him keep his job. Spare me your race-baiting

Sure that's why this happened :

"We must use every tool to defend the sacred right to vote"???

“…would rather black Americans pick cotton…” Shut up, you race-baiting piece of shit.

Really? the party of Jim Crow, segregated lunch counters, and the KKK is going to lecture anyone about the treatment of blacks? I don't give a damn what color you are but you don't give a shit about black Americans, its power only.

Bro, stop the racist bullshit. 7/10 democrat seats that were 86'd are occupied by rich, white men. Please find Jesus. And a wig.

Coming from the party that has continually suppressed Black voters while lying to them and taking advantage of them, maybe you should sit this one out

As racist and stupid as you are, this is your MOST racist and stupid tweet ever. Shame on you

These are the same people that say we need the illegals to pick our vegetables.

Why are you so racist? Everyone’s vote still counts. You’re advocating for institutional racism that democrats have been using for decades. You’re an absolute joke and clearly a DEI hire

Could you tone the racism down a notch? Thanks.

“Virginia Democrats want politicians to decide who their voters are, instead of the voters determining who their Representatives are.” fixed it for you moron

@AyannaPressley

Oh, stop it. That is soooo stereotypical, racist, and false. My white great-grandparents and grandparents picked cotton. So did thousands of other white people.

So clever. Yes, Republicans are all about blacks picking cotton. So many dumb people in politics.

@AyannaPressley Lady, your sacred right to vote is sacrosanct! You & All blacks can still vote as before And you know this when not trying to instill racial animus. As MLK fought for, representatives will not be judged by color of their skin but by content of their character as Obama was.

NO one is taking away your right to vote, you dimwit!

we want quality people who care about and respect America; sex or color doesn't mater, no DEI, no racism, just the best people.

Oh stop with the victimhood bullshit, pinchi pelóna! No one is falling for your crybully cagada, no more preferential treatment based on race! Why? Because it’s fucking RACIST!

Jesus Christ with your fucking Race Cards! All the actual fucking Racists waving Race cards…a fucking JOKE 🤡

You do realize that White people picked cotton, worked in coal mines, built railroads, worked in fields as well, yet we don't bitch about it, don't you?

This is a ridiculous statement, black Americans have the right to do all of these things, no one is trying to deny anyone of the right to vote.

Congresswoman Presley and like minded people are the true bigots. It should be pointed out that she, and her ilk, believe votes should be segregated. She’s advocating for the erasure of white votes? How about Asian votes? Latino votes? Let’s break it down and redistribute by not only race, but, religion, creed, gender identity, gang affiliation, etc…That is what she appears to be advocating. Does she only represent black people? Here, stupid me, thought members of Congress represented ALL her constituents without regard to race, religion, creed, color, or any other characteristic.

You didn't know that cotton picking farm equipment replaced hand labor? Why would any farmers want to give up their machinery that picks 100 acres of cotton a day to hand picking at 1/10 to 1/3 an acre a day? Lady, if all you have to bring to the table is talking shit, at least bring some smart shit. Your stupid shit is causing massive amounts of fatigue.

On Election day, do they have separate places to vote for Black, Hispanic, Asian, and white people? Or are we all supposed to be humans, citizens, that are individuals, and decide for ourselves who we are going to vote for? The Democrat Party used to be the party of segregation and seems to have not changed very much over the decades. I have a feeling that if the Democrat Communists had their way, the following great African Americans would not be allowed to go to the black place to vote. Tim Scott, Byron Donald, Herschel Walker, Scott Turner, Larry Elder, Bob Woodson, Jeremy Hunt, Burgess Owens, Ben Carson, Wesley Hunt, John James, Jason Whitlock, Mamyra Mensah-Stock, Charles Payne, Brandon Tatum, David Webb, Thomas Sowell, Shelby Steele, Sage Steele, Darius Rucker, Clarence Thomas, Jesse Lee Peterson, Leo Terrell, Winsome Sears, Alan Keyes, Hodge Twins, Casper Stockham, & Terrance K. Williams, John McWhorter, Carol Swain, Coleman Hughes, Jason Riley, Allen West, Nicki Minaj.

Wow what a lying bitch! Party of Jim Crow? Democrats! Party that made gun laws so black men could not defend themselves? Democrats Party the created gerrymandering? Democrats! FAFO

You do realize that machines do the work of “picking” cotton now.
