    I highly doubt Omar will have anything to do with pork or bacon. As for this country's business, that's a hell no.

    Never said that. Are you claiming that pork and bacon are the only ways a congress person can help their district?

    Take Elijah Cummings who represents his state's 7th district, a rat infested shithole, over the last five years, Baltimore has received $903 million in federal grants for operating and capital expenses, according to city budget documents. Over the same period, the federal government also provided $1.1 billion to the Housing Authority of Baltimore City, according to USASpending.gov.

    Cummings’ more expansive congressional district received $15.7 billion in grants, benefits and contracts from the federal government during the past two fiscal years, according to the federal government website. That includes Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security payments and defense contracts.

    That money went somewhere, Elijah and his crooked wife live lives of splendor compared to those they represent that live with the rats in failing schools and crime ridden neighborhoods.

    Maybe instead of running down to the border to try to get free stuff for illegals trying to enter from Central America, Elijah and his crooked wife should be working for the people of Baltimore.

    I went to school with a guy who is now a journalist with CBS in NYC and two years ago we got into a big argument about what is and isn’t racism. To him pretty much everything is racist, he kept arguing that blacks can do everything white people can do if and when they’re allowed to do it. I countered with black communities and why the ones we hear about are always struggling, which, of course, he blamed on white people. But then I pressed him to name a single upscale, low crime black neighborhood in this country, that’s when he called me a racist and I haven’t heard from him since.

    So to my liberal friends on this beard, does an upscale, low crime black community exist in this country? If so, where?

    Wow, nice meme. I guess if I made cartoons and attributed them to CNN you’d believe them.

    Four of the worlds most dangerous cities are Baltimore, Detroit, St. Louis and New Orleans...and then there’s Chicago. Care to mention who runs those cities and their demographics? I doubt you will, you guys never do.

    If you are a conservative, you should be happy with the success of supply-side socialism: The redistribution of wealth from the poor and the middle to the rich.

    Making America a shithole is a dream of the shithead, Third-World Donnie: Trickle-down economics.

    According to your link, Desoto is the second most affluent African American suburbs in the US. They have an average income of 61K and house value average at 164k. Bawahaaa. I got laborers that make more than that.

    All who have employed me were better off than me, and I owe them a debt of gratitude. I'm DIYer and take care of my land, do my own plumbing and pressure washing, etc., because it ain't easy to write the check to somebody who does work for you.

    "Dude...."... you ever hear the term that Congress brings "" pork " ( as in federal dollors and federal programs) back to their districts? That is what I was referring to.

    Both parties were hooked on pork. If you do not know that then you are playing ostrich or are not being honest with yourself.

    She is the modern day Adam Clayton Powell. She is sticking it to "the man." She will be reelected.

    All I can say is, "If you think Clay Davis is going to jail you don't know Clay Davis."

    That's correct.

    Omar's district worst for black people

    [​IMG]

    Headline-grabbing Democrat Congresswoman Ihlan Omar heads the worst district for black people in America, a survey showed.

    24/7 Wall Street listed the 30 worst congressional districts for black people.

    Omar's district won the title of Worst Place To Be In America If You Are Black.

    She inherited the district from fellow Muslim and Democrat, Keith Ellison, another grabber of headlines. He parlayed his fame into a deputy chairmanship of the DNC. He is now Minnesota's attorney general.

    The 24/7 Wall Street site said, "For each measure, we constructed an index from the gaps between black and white Americans. The index was standardized using interdecile normalization so that outliers in the data would not skew results."

    It is not that she represents an impoverished district. It is that black people in her district are four times as likely to be poor than her white constituents.

    From her report card:

    • Poverty rate: 37.2% black; 9.4% white
    • Unemployment rate: 12.3% black; 4.0% white
    • Homeownership rate: 19.8% black; 63.1% white

    Obviously, she has not been in office long enough to make a difference. Ellison was. And she has not made improving her district a priority. Instead, she brags about being the president's worst nightmare.

    Under President Donald John Trump, black employment is at an all-time high, which is a threat to Democrats like Ellison and Omar.

    Make no mistake, they want to keep black people poor. Democrats represent 25 of the 30 worst districts for black people.

    How bad are these districts? The rat-infested, crime-ridden district represented by Elijah Cummings ranked 22nd.

    That means there are 21 worse places for black people to live in America.

    My suggestion to black people in those ratholes: Move!

    Shameful.

    And now Michael Moore is saying the squad being the face of the democrat party is the only way they win in 2020.

    Other than poorly educated whites, no other group is stupid enough to believe that trickle-down economics does not cause poverty.

    All 3 sentences are blatant lies.

    I'd love to see you try to defend them.

    In the Alice-in-Wonderland world of con artists, the truth becomes lies and lies become truth. Other than poorly educated whites, the American-hating bigot, KKK Donnie, does not have the majority support of blacks, Hispanics, Asians or members of the gay community.
