i m very excited about the momentum. tucker: if you are an african-american voter and your family has been in this country for 400 years, a long time and a lot of cases and all of a sudden your party is telling you that the real concern is people who aren t even here illegally,se foreign nationals from other countries, do you ask yourself at some point but what about me, the american citizen? does that turn off voters at a certain point? it s not only turning them off that this hijacking of the civil rights movement is taking place for legal minorities, but illegal for a lesser even more frustrated because now you are looking at an environment to where you have that low-wage workers competing for jobs andor communities and against people who will not speak english, so it s not only affecting the real low-wage, it s affecting the middle-class because if you want to work in any type of public service for the fire, for the police, for the teachers, anything, you have to be bilingual a
african-americans, we think with these new arrivals are. tucker: i think it s a totally fair question. i never even thought about the bilingual question. it s horrible. in california for instance you can take the driver s license test and 40 languages. tucker: i never hear maxine waters or any member of the cdc mentioned that. why? they are very invested in progressivism. it s their job to make sure blacks do not get any of this information. the whole congressional black caucus they had to make sure that no gets any information of freedom and that s been there role for the last 50 years. what s happening now is people are getting more information. my organization, we have our own news site. a black community news.com so people are getting other sources of news. president trump said lately about fake news is very real. there are many instruments now competing against that, the mainstream media, so we can get other information and blacks are hearing that message. tucker: star
that was vetoed by president johnson. the veto was overridden. two-thirds of both houses saying freed black, they are citizens. it also says not subject to any foreign power. some of the southern states came back with 1857, the supreme court ruled in dred scott that no black person, even a free black person could ever be a citizen of the united states so the reconstruction congress had okay then we are going to put this in the constitution. we are not going to let you get away with this. we are going to make this undeniable that every fleet till mike freed slaves and their descendants are citizens. tucker: and amendment designed to enfranchise african-americans being here for hundred years, 500 years is now being used by chinese nationals and russians flying into guam or los angeles to have children here. that would be not the original intent.an absolutely not. one of the things i find incredible and amusing, sadly so, the russian hysteria of our time. a russia is supposed to be th
