Danielle Moodie-Mills told MSNBC host Chris Hayes on Wednesday that Democrats need to “stop pandering to the white working class” which is demographically becoming a minority because they’re not “the future of this country.”
After saying that “white Americans” and “conservative Americans” are “afraid of what’s coming down the pike” demographically, the Woke AF host said:
“What Democrats need to stop doing is stop pandering to the white working class as if they’re the only ones that are part of the working class. This is the problem. When we get into identity politics and we were told, after the 2016 election: ‘stop talking about identity politics, that’s what lost us the election.'”
“No.”
“What lost us the election is constantly pandering to a class that isn’t on your side, that isn’t the future of this country, that isn’t the future of the party. What black Americans have shown time and time again is that they are the backbone of the Democratic Party, and yet receive none of the investment from it.”
“So the idea is this: let us stop pretending that white women and white men are going to save us from ourselves. They’re not going to. They’re always going to vote with their whiteness. That’s the reality. That’s the reality that we’re living in.”
Moodie-Mills went on to say the “base”of the Democratic Party is “people of color” and not those at “the top” of their party’s pyramid, presumably meaning white people.
It’s worth noting the inverse of Moodie-Mills’s electoral strategy is Steve Sailer’s the “Sailer Strategy,” which is for Republicans to aggressively go after white voters.
Incidentally, Steve Sailer was pretty much blacklisted from the media as a result of such theories whereas Moodie-Mills can advocate the same in reverse with the establishment media’s full backing.
Fynn Ajani Arthur, 21, was arrested on Thursday for allegedly scrawling “KKK,” swastikas and “I’m gonna kill all n****rs” across Goucher College campus.
Arthur reportedly wrote the numbers of several dorm rooms along with his threats, one of which was his own.
A black college lacrosse player has been arrested in connection with two incidents of racist graffiti found in a dorm on the Goucher College campus in Maryland.
Fynn Ajani Arthur, a 21-year-old from Brunswick, Maine, was charged with two counts of malicious destruction of property on Thursday night in Baltimore County.
His arrest came after graffiti aimed at black and Latino students was found on the second floor of a campus dorm, one floor above where similar graffiti had been found on November 14, Goucher College administrators said in a statement.
Both incidents that shook the Towson campus involved backward swastikas and targeted specific individuals, according to the statement.
Thursday’s graffiti depicted swastikas, the letters ‘KKK’ and appeared to include the last names of four black students, including Arthur. The previous graffiti reportedly said all ‘n*****s’ on campus would be killed.
Here’s some coverage from Twitter after the incident occurred:
‘Initially they were denied, in violation of U.S. and international law, but I was able to intervene and ensure that they could simply present themselves for asylum in the United States,’ she says
It’s hardly a secret that leftists love the idea of open borders and letting illegal immigration run amok.
It’s also a well-established fact that Democrats typically harbor a seething hatred of all things related to President Donald Trump and will stoop to any depth to needle the president.
But it takes a certain level of brazenness, even for a leftist Democrat, to boast about personally helping and bringing members of the migrant caravan across the border just to stick it to Trump.
U.S. Rep. Pramila Jayapal, a Washington Democrat, apparently has that kind of brazenness.
The 53-year-old Jayapal bragged on her Twitter account about helping migrants get into the United States after they had previously been denied entry.
“I was able to successfully assist 5 asylum seekers – 2 unaccompanied minors, a mother and her 9 year old child, and a young man with a serious medical condition – into the United States,” Jayapal wrote on Twitter.
So, to recap: A United States congresswoman is bragging to the public about bringing in two minors who will inevitably end up in the foster care system, as well as someone who will immediately put a squeeze on taxpayer-funded health care programs with a “serious medical condition.” Wow.
Jayapal didn’t stop there. In a subsequent Twitter post, she also took it upon herself to accuse Trump’s border patrol agents of “illegal” acts.
“Initially they were denied, in violation of U.S. and international law, but I was able to intervene and ensure that they could simply present themselves for asylum in the United States,” Jayapal said.
It’s not abundantly clear what violations Jayapal is speaking of, though presumably she’s referring to United States asylum laws. In that sense, it’s beyond depressing that a United States congresswoman can be so obtuse as to what exactly qualifies a migrant for asylum.
To qualify for asylum, migrants must be fleeing because they have a well-established fearing of persecution for any number of reasons, including political or religious affiliation. Seeking employment or better health care, as many of these migrants admit to be looking for, unequivocally do not qualify for asylum.
U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz, a conservative Florida Republican, took to Twitter to call out Jayapal’s efforts.
“Nuts” is one word for it, anyway.
But even if we were to give the fact that Jayapal did some incredibly humane act of goodness, how pathetic is it that her good deed was done just to attack Trump?
And make no mistake, Jayapal is a huge Trump critic.
According to Roll Call, she has just been elected co-chairwoman of the House Progressive Caucus. She also said in an interview with Politico on Friday that she decided to take her most recent trip to the border because she was horrified by reports last week about the Border Patrol using tear gas on migrants from the caravan who tried to storm the border.
“When I read the report about a week ago that kids and moms were being tear gassed, I just couldn’t sleep,” she told Politico. “I want to go see for myself what is happening, what happens to asylum seekers as they get to the border, how are they turned back, what’s happening to them in between, where the conditions in which they’re living.”
She clearly had no concern about the Border Patrol agents who were involved. They’re just regular American citizens doing their jobs — the kind of people Democrats increasingly have little use for, apparently.
And naturally, she blamed Trump for all of it.
“The president is lying about this caravan, he’s fear mongering,” she told Politico. “He’s trying to use people who are seeking asylum and literally running from death just for his own political benefit and that’s a disgrace.”
To paraphrase Jayapal, she is lying about this caravan. She’s trying to use people who are seeking asylum and literally running to better jobs for her own political benefit.
In what was supposedly a “comedy” act to close out the latest episode of NBC’s Saturday Night Live, the female cast members got together to sing their rendition of Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You”.
But the person they had their eye on was Special Counsel Robert Mueller, or, at least a report that would put Trump in jail. Because, according to the SNL cast, “the only other option is a coup. Straight Africa.”
Aside from comedian Leslie Jones saying she was going to bake “rophies into cookies because this year, I’m going to get [Santa]” (What happened to #MeToo?), the song was comprised of the deranged ramblings of loony liberals.
“This needs to be done by Christmas. I need a fricking ounce of cheer. I just really want my life back. Oh my god, it’s been two years,” the group sang, switching back and forth between them.
Getting more vindictive, they continued, saying: “I don’t need a full impeachment. But we just need a little fun. Please tell us we aren’t crazy. At least indict his oldest son.”“Please tell us we aren’t crazy”… Um, you’re singing a song to a special counsel to indict and lock up a sitting U.S. president. Sorry to break it to you, but you’re already there.
As they went, the group sang about how they were tired of getting “tiny nibbles” and wanted a “true entrée”, possibly talking about the many indictments not connected directly to Trump or collusion. “You better prove that Trump colluded. Or that he kidnapped JonBenet.” And they want to be told they’re not crazy.
Despite the recent cases of politically motivated violence, including last year’s mass assassination attempt of GOP lawmakers at a Congressional baseball practice, the SNL cast seemed to “joke” about overthrowing Trump in a bloody African-style coup: “We don’t need a long-ass doc, just a single page that stocks. Mueller, please come through because the only other option is a coup. Straight Africa.”
“Oh, I got the whole case laid out on my kitchen floor. And if you can’t lock Trump up, at least prove he’s super poor,” they huffed.
As they were nearing the end of the song (and the show), the women made their final plea to Mueller to finish the investigation soon:
Oh, I don’t need a lot for Christmas. Just a perfect magic spell that solves the whole world’s problems and put the white guy in a cell. I just want to sleep at night. Please make sure your case is tight. And make our wish come true. Because, Mueller, all we want for Christmas is you.
Then Kate McKinnon admitted that “unless the report has like zero new information, because then we would rather it never come out.”“Yeah, yeah, because it is our last shred of hope and I’ve already drunk all the wine,” Cecily Strong exclaimed.
This song was from the same show that wept and sang “Hallelujah” when Hillary Clinton lost to Trump. The argument can be made that this Christmas song was funny, but probably not in the way the cast and the writers anticipated. Their attempt to attack Trump wasn’t funny, but it was pathetic. Them showing off their Trump Derangement Syndrome was hysterical.

SONG LYRICS: I don’t want a lot for Christmas. There is just one thing I need. I don’t care about the presents underneath the Christmas tree. I just want a simple thing and the joy that it will bring. The report is finally due. Mueller, all I want for Christmas is you.
You, baby. This needs to be done by Christmas. I need a fricking ounce of cheer. I just really want my life back. Oh, my god it’s been two years.

We are sick of tiny nibbles. We need us a true entrée. You better prove that Trump colluded. And that he kidnapped JonBenet. We won’t ask for much this Christmas, but at least throw us a bone. Tell us what the hell is happening and who the F is Roger Stone.

Dozens of US Customs and Border Protection officers in full riot gear have been marching, running and tossing fake tear gas amid loud bangs, as they trained to repel illegal immigrants trying to enter the country.
The drills, conducted on Saturday, created a truly apocalyptic sight, complete with white smoke and loud bangs.
Traffic at the Otay Mesa Port of Entry was halted for around ten minutes and led to increased waits for travelers planning to cross border.
CBP officials said that the massive readiness exercise was “necessary.” A similar exercise, held at the San Ysidro Port of Entry on Thanksgiving Day, also saw a temporary closure of the border.
Around 8,000 Central American asylum seekers currently remain on the Mexican side of the border, causing havoc in Mexico’s Tijuana as they wait for their applications to be considered by US authorities.
The arrival of the migrant caravan has led to beefed-up security along the entire US-Mexico border, including the deployment of over 5,000 troops as President Trump vowed to use force to prevent the caravan’s participants from making it to America.

Italy’s Interior Minister Matteo Salvini, the most popular politician in the country, is one step closer to making good on his campaign promise to deport 500,000 illegal migrants.
The Italian government passed a law that clamps down on asylum rights and boosts funds for police, handing Interior Minister and right-wing League party leader Matteo Salvini his first major legislative win.
The lower house of parliament voted 396 to 99 late on Wednesday to pass the law championed by Salvini, who took office in June in a coalition with the anti-establishment 5-Star Movement.
The new law eliminates humanitarian grounds for granting protection to refugees — asylum that is not tied to political persecution or war. It also funnels millions of euros to law enforcement and anti-mafia administrators.

The new law eliminates humanitarian grounds for granting protection to refugees — asylum that is not tied to political persecution or war. It also funnels millions of euros to law enforcement and anti-mafia administrators.
“I’m willing to host women and children who are escaping from war … But all the others, no,” Salvini said on Thursday, referring to the new legislation. “I don’t want to be seen as an idiot.”
Italy will still award asylum to war refugees or victims of political persecution. But it will no longer hand out “humanitarian” asylum, which was given to those who had “serious reasons” to flee their home country – a category that has often included homosexuals fleeing harsh anti-gay laws in Africa.
More than 20,000 people, or 25 percent of those who sought asylum, got “humanitarian” protection last year, and the tens of thousands of others received it in previous years will now likely lose their legal status when their documents expire.
The League’s lawmakers celebrated the passage of the law on Thursday by unfurling a banner outside the lower house of parliament that read: “The Salvini decree is law; the good times (for migrants) are over.”
The law also allows for migrants to be stripped of their citizenship if they’re convicted of terrorism.
Parliament erupted in cheers after the law was

✔@matteosalvinimi
Il momento in cui il Decreto Sicurezza e Immigrazione è diventato legge!
Dedico questi applausi e questo entusiasmo a tutti voi, Amici, che come me ci avete sempre creduto. Ed è solo l’inizio.#DecretoSalvini
“The moment the security and Immigration decree became law!” Salvini tweeted. “I dedicate this applause and this enthusiasm to all of you, my friends, who have always believed in me. And it’s just the beginning.”
The League’s popularity is exploding:
Largely as a result of his hard line on immigration, the League, after winning some 17 percent in the March election, has doubled its support, rocketing past its 5-Star partner.
The League’s backing is now 34 percent, compared with 25 percent for 5-Star, a Noto Sondaggi poll published this week showed.
