Lily white Nicole Wallace assails a black man Posted by DrJohn on 29 April, 2021 at 6:29 am. 3 comments already!
MSNBC anchor Nicolle Wallace on Wednesday night criticized Sen. Tim Scott’s (D-SC) rebuttal of President Joe Biden’s first congressional address.
Defending Georgia’s voting law, Scott said, “I’m an African American who has voted in the South all my life. I take voting rights personally. Republicans support making it easier to vote and harder to cheat. And so do voters. Big majorities of Americans support early voting, and big majorities support voter ID, including African Americans and Hispanics. Common sense makes common ground. But today, this conversation has collapsed.”
Last year, under Republican leadership, we passed five bipartisan COVID packages. Congress supported our hospitals, saved our economy, and funded Operation Warp Speed, delivering vaccines in record time. All five bills got 90 or more votes in the Senate. Common sense found common ground.
In February, Republicans told President Biden we wanted to keep working together to win this fight. But Democrats wanted to go it alone. They spent almost $2 trillion on a partisan bill that the White House bragged was the most liberal bill in American history! Only 1% went to vaccinations. No requirement to re-open schools promptly. COVID brought Congress together five times. This Administration pushed us apart.

Republican Senator Tim Scott took on the Democrats last night with an issue-by-issue rebuttal of their claims since essentially taking control of the federal government in January – then ended his talk with a scriptural blessing over the nation.

Senator Scott used the opportunity to counter many of the president s claims about his first 100 days in office – but also to dispute one of the administration s major talking points: racism in America.

Good evening. I’m Sen. Tim Scott from the great state of South Carolina.
We just heard President [Joe] Biden’s first address to Congress. Our president seems like a good man. His speech was full of good words. But President Biden promised you a specific kind of leadership. He promised to unite a nation. To lower the temperature. To govern for all Americans, no matter how we voted. This was the pitch. You just heard it again.
But our nation is starving for more than empty platitudes. We need policies and progress that brings us closer together. But three months in, the actions of the president and his party are pulling us further and further apart.
