it was conservatives that voted against the 1964 civil rights act!

And the Republican party by and large has been the party of the rich and conservatives for 100 years.


But as you know, Republicans were once the party of civil rights.

Didn't a higher percentage of R's vote for the bill than did the D's? Does that make them the liberal party in '64?

Illinois NAACP President Apologizes After Referring To Immigrants As "Savages"

Ever since the Biden administration began bussing thousands of migrants to Chicago, the city's black community has been less-than enthusiastic about their new neighbors.

"All of a sudden we have deep pockets for people who don't pay taxes," said one resident during a May town hall. "I understand helping people, but you start with your own home."

In today's episode of the left eating its own - meet Chicago NAACP President Teresa Haley, who took things one step further in a leaked Zoom call from October, in which she likened immigrants to "savages, rapists and burglars."

"But these immigrants come over here, they've been rapin' people. They've been breaking into homes. They're like savages as well. They don't speak the language, and they look at us like we're crazy because we were the only people in America who were brought over here against our will, and were slaves.
