Given the DEMOCRAT PARTY were the party of Slavery, JIM CROW, and the KKK.
An now they are the champions of funding Voter Plantations.
Plus the promoted and funded single family black households, no matter how many they pump out from different sperm donors. All dependent on Federal $$$, and the Democrats for care and feeding.
Why does any black or anti-slavery Liberal still vote democrat to support this modernized version of slavery? Where the slave product harvested is Votes for mainly $$M's and powerful White DC Swampers?

Why does any black or anti-slavery Liberal still vote democrat to support this modernized version of slavery?
Because they get the handouts without having to work like slaves did.

Extortion dressed up as policy options. When politicians see an ethnic group as a voting block, not individuals, it is a tacit admission they use group-think tactics in dealing with them because they consider them incapable of independent thinking. When it is a black politician espousing this point of view, it is a shameful admission of the same...

They aren't vengeance attacks, it's that those White People owe them something, see?
Reparations ain't happening, at least not for the next three years, and if real Black People are turned off by all this bullshit and leaving the party, then it is all with a neat little bow.
[IsraelTimes] Michael Blake, a former state assemblyman running to represent the Bronx, told ‘Linda Goldstein’ he’d consider visiting her ‘congregation’ in the Strip
A New York politician seeking to unseat US Rep. Ritchie Torres failed to clock as satire a social media account claiming to represent a left-wing "Chief Rabbi of Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... ," praising her work and indicating he’d be open to visiting her "congregation" in the Strip, according to The New York Post.
"Rabbi Linda Goldstein" wrote to Michael Blake, who is running against Torres in a Democratic primary this month, in November of last year, offering to "lend [her] voice to defeat" Torres, the tabloid reported this week.
"I’m about to head to Gaza for two weeks to check on my congregation but please send me an email," wrote "Goldstein" on November 9, according to the Post.
Blake, a former state assemblyman who worked in the B.O. regime, responded: "Powerful. And when not in Gaza, where’s home base?...We need you and your community to be safe. Thank you for leading, inspiring and protecting the people."
When asked if he would consider coming to Gaza, Blake said: "Certainly would consider."
There is not, in fact, a chief rabbi of the Gaza Strip. Israel withdrew unilaterally from the territory in 2005, forcibly expelling the Jewish Israelis who lived in settlements there and even exhuming the bodies of deceased Jews from local cemeteries to prevent their desecration.
Though the Strip had a long Jewish history prior to the creation of the modern State of Israel, it has not had any Jewish presence in the two decades since the unilateral disengagement, with the exception of Israeli soldiers deployed there during wars with the Hamas ..the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,... terror group, Gaza’s de facto government.
The user behind the "Goldstein" account — whose bio describes her as a "nude yogi" and who has joked in posts about hosting orgies between rabbis and Paleostinian refugees — described her account to the Post as a project to expose "the ignorance and absurdity of the ’bandwagon’ Free Paleostine advocates."
"[Blake] started following me on X so I figured I would ask if he needed any assistance on his campaign," the user — who remains anonymous, citing threats — said.
Had the best time marching at the Gaza Pride Parade yesterday. Thank you to the progressive leaders of Hamas for making me Parade Marshall 🥰😇🇵🇸🏳️🌈 pic.twitter.com/DK23ovfUIU

In 2024, anti-Israel progressives Cori Bush and Jamaal Bowman, both of whom were defeated in primary elections by candidates less hostile to Israel, also mistook the account for real.
Mark Treyger, CEO of the Jewish Community Relations Council of New York, said he was concerned by Blake’s susceptibility to the prank, calling it “more than an embarrassing social media moment.”
“It underscores a broader challenge in our public discourse, where misinformation, slogans, and assumptions too often replace knowledge and substance,” he said.
Torres’s district includes the heavily Jewish area of Riverdale as well as several predominantly Black and Latino neighborhoods.
The congressman has been outspoken in his support for Israel’s existence and right to self-defense, though he’s been critical of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government, calling National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir a “despicable disgusting dangerous demagogue,” and those responsible for an online influence campaign targeting US lawmakers “blithering idiots.”
Blake has made Torres’s support for Israel a key campaign issue, accusing the congressman of complicity in what he describes as a “genocide” in Gaza, referring to the war sparked by Hamas’s October 7, 2023, massacres and hostage-taking in Israel.
His campaign website calls for an end to all US military support for Israel, denouncing “the crimes Israel is committing in Gaza.” It does not mention the Hamas terror group.
The site also calls for an end to the US-Israeli war with Iran, which Blake says is being fought on behalf of the Jewish state. The Trump administration has repeatedly rejected that characterization, asserting that where the nations’ interests diverge, American interests will be pursued, even at Israel’s expense.
Blake kicked off his campaign in 2025 with a launch video assailing Torres for taking donations from AIPAC. The video included an influencer who justified the killing of two Israeli embassy workers near the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, DC, last year.
After backlash, Blake called the influencer’s inclusion “a miss,” removing the video and replacing it with a version without him.
Torres is overwhelmingly favored to defeat Blake, with local outlet City and State placing the odds at 98%-2%, in the incumbent’s favor.
[CaliforniaGlobe] California Governor Gavin Newsom received $50,000 in campaign contributions from a top executive at a Chinese electric vehicle company (BYD) that Newsom fawned over during his 2023 visit to China. BYD is now on a Pentagon blacklist due to its ties to the Chinese military, the Washington Free Beacon reports.
If BYD rings a bell for California Globe readers, it should. In 2020, we reported that Gov. Gavin Newsom spent over $1 billion in taxpayer funds to buy masks from the Chinese electric vehicle maker BYD at the start of the COVID pandemic.
An electric car company suddenly pivots to making masks — and Newsom chooses them over American suppliers?
Then he went back for more. Newsom signed a second deal worth another $315 million.
The Globe broke the story. RedState amplified it. Even some mainstream outlets in California covered it.
A handful of unhappy Democrat lawmakers in the Legislature demanded an audit of the unauthorized purchases, but they fell silent after a single demand letter to the governor.
And then — POOF — the media lost interest. At least the mainstream media did.
In 2023, the California Globe covered Newsom’s trip to China and reminded readers exactly who BYD was, and how the governor’s corrupt $1.4 billion mask deal went down.
While the mainstream media chased the next shiny object, the Globe kept digging. What we uncovered was a $1.4 billion contract that smelled like well-connected insider dealing at the highest levels of the governor’s office.
Here’s what we found:
BYD — "Build Your Dreams" — is a Chinese electric vehicle and battery giant headquartered in Shenzhen. The company operates a California subsidiary in Lancaster that employs roughly 1,000 people.
Our reporting exposed a web of influential players tied to the unusual mask contract, with connections reaching directly into Governor Newsom’s inner circle.
The prominent lobbyist representing BYD is Mark Weideman of The Weideman Group. Newsom’s campaign received $40,000 in contributions from BYD’s automotive division.
Weideman also lobbies for Bloom Energy, a San Jose fuel-cell manufacturer that retooled its operations to refurbish ventilators during the pandemic. He additionally represents NextGen America, owned by Tom Steyer — the same Tom Steyer who chaired Newsom’s economic recovery committee after his own failed presidential bid.
When the Globe contacted Weideman for comment, neither a phone call to his office on May 19, 2020, at 1:07 p.m., nor a follow-up email sent on May 25 received any response.
Adding another layer of insider access: Weideman’s wife, Jennifer Wada, runs her own government relations firm, Wada Government Relations Group. Few Sacramento insiders realize the two are married. Wada previously partnered in the law firm Wada Williams Law Group with Anthony Williams — the same Anthony Williams who now serves as Gov. Newsom’s Legislative Affairs Secretary and was once described in news reports as the governor’s "chief lobbyist."
Newsom’s 2023 trip to China raised more questions than answers. The governor never clearly explained its purpose beyond setting up yet another round of sweetheart deals with Beijing.
The most memorable (and telling) moment came when Newsom was filmed behind the wheel of a sleek new BYD electric vehicle. A California Fox News anchor traveling with him apparently never connected the dots, we reported.
The itinerary included stops in Hong Kong, Beijing, and Shanghai. Newsom billed the visit as a "climate-focused tour," complete with a wind farm and Tesla’s Shanghai Gigafactory. Critics saw something else entirely: a governor willfully ignoring China’s industrial espionage, human rights abuses, and military ambitions.
As the Washington Free Beacon reported:
"Ke Li — a Chinese national who serves as BYD’s executive vice president and is reportedly married to the company’s billionaire founder and CEO, Wang Chuanfu, a Chinese Communist Party member and close ally of Xi Jinping — donated $20,000 to Newsom’s 2018 gubernatorial campaign and another $30,000 to his 2022 reelection bid."
That’s more money than Li has given to all other California candidates combined.
As I recall, foreigners are not permitted to donate to political campaigns.
Newsom’s cozy relationship with BYD has only deepened. He has showered the company with state contracts and, during his 2023 visit to its Shenzhen headquarters, test-drove a BYD model that floats on water. "Who needs a car when you can have a car and a boat?" Newsom quipped.
Three years later, that relationship is apparently on a crash course. This week, the Pentagon formally classified BYD as a Chinese military company, adding it to a list of entities that help Beijing fuse private industry with its military buildup.
Newsom’s ties to China go back decades to his time as mayor of San Francisco. Just this week, Peter W. Wood at American Greatness published a powerful new piece titled "How China Captured California," detailing exactly how deep that entanglement has become:
In 2005, the mayor of San Francisco paid a visit to Shanghai, where he worked out some agreements that furthered city-to-city cooperation. Mayor Gavin Newsom was at the beginning of a career that married environmental alarmism to close cooperation with the Chinese state. The memorandum he signed with Shanghai Mayor Han Zheng brought Chinese police officers, attorneys, and judges to the Fog City. Newsom in turn brought bottles of PlumpJack from his Napa Valley winery.
Wood, president of the National Association of Scholars, continues:
My organization, the National Association of Scholars (NAS), has spent a year attempting to trace the connections, the political favors, and the interweaving of Chinese state interests with California’s political establishment. We don’t have subpoena power or deep connections to the regime. We are, instead, specialists in higher education, so we naturally learned more about that side of the picture than anything else. But the political side was unavoidable.
My assessment: California’s energy policy is made in China, and California is in many respects a vassal of China. Best of all, from China’s perspective, few Californians realize it. They live in a dream world where high-price energy is just the cost they pay for a really clean environment. NAS’s report, Behind the Climate Curtain: China’s Hidden Role in California’s Energy Mandates and University Partnerships, presents our evidence to back these audacious claims. I can’t say we have the kind of proof that will lead to future perp-walks of politicians by the FBI. But we have wind farms, solar plantations, and tankers full of the kinds of details that investigators might want to examine.
Gavin Newsom’s relationship with BYD isn’t a series of unfortunate coincidences. It is a damning pattern of favoritism that has funneled billions in California taxpayer dollars to a Chinese company now officially designated by the Pentagon as a military asset of the Chinese Communist Party. From no-bid mask contracts worth $1.4 billion to campaign donations routed through a BYD executive married to the firm’s CCP-connected founder, Newsom has repeatedly chosen Beijing over American interests and California taxpayers.
While he grins behind the wheel of floating BYD vehicles in Shenzhen, the Golden State grows more economically dependent and strategically compromised. As Peter W. Wood exposed this week in American Greatness, California hasn’t merely been influenced by China, it has been captured. And no one has held the door open wider, or longer, than Gavin Newsom.
[CaliforniaGlobe] And one-third of California’s state budget is made up of federal funding
A new federal report released Wednesday by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Administration for Children and Families reveals that California gets 80% of the federal funding for Illegal Immigrant Families.
More than $617 million in taxpayer-funded cash welfare went to California households headed by illegal immigrant parents last year.
In 2024, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families basic assistance was provided to more than 85,000 child-only households headed by a parent excluded from the assistance unit because of immigration status, and California was the primary driver of the national total, accounting for about 59,600 households and about $617.5 million, or roughly 81% of nationwide spending on these cases.
The next-largest states were significantly smaller. New York ranked second at about 7,635 households and about $47.5 million in annual cash assistance, followed by Massachusetts at about 3,777 households and about $27.3 million, and Washington at about 1,796 households and about $12.2 million.
WHY GAVIN NEWSOM IS LOSING HIS MIND OVER FEDERAL FUNDING CUTS
According to the California and Budget Policy Center, almost 4 in 5 federal dollars that are projected to flow through California’s state budget in 2025-26 — $136.6 billion — support vital health and human services (HHS) for millions of Californians, including children, seniors, and families with low incomes.
And one-third of California’s state budget is made up of federal funding. The enacted state budget for 2025-26 includes almost $175 billion in federal funds. This is over one-third (35.2%) of the total state budget.
Is this more California fraud that needs Trump administration scrutiny and prosecution?
