Rep. Karen Bass (D-Calif), chairperson of the 55-member Congressional Black Caucus (CBC), the most numerous in our nation’s history, has set the Caucus’ sights on “reversing the trauma inflicted on people of color by the Trump Administration over the past two years. We will use our tremendous power and influence to undo Trump’s evil plan to force millions of voters off of welfare and into the labor economy.”
“The notion that a job is the answer to curing poverty and improving one’s life is a myth,” Bass contended. “Curing poverty has been the task of government since the 1960s’ Great Society initiative of President Johnson. The programs begun then have liberated millions from the drudgery of wage slavery. The policies of Trump leading to more jobs than job applicants allow Republicans to exert cruel mental pressure on those who have come to rely on government generosity for a more relaxing lifestyle.”
Bass claimed that “the 2018 elections that returned Democrats to a majority in the House were a mandate from voters against the social injustice of attempting to dismantle of a way of life that has spanned generations of our people. The Caucus is united in our determination to take any action needed to thwart Trump’s heartless plan.”
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif) praised the CBC’s “commitment to re-liberate those that Trump’s policies have driven into the workforce” and promised “to do everything in my power to see that the aims of this noble collection of legislators are fulfilled,” and boasted of “the shock and awe that will be unleashed against the enemies of progressive change now that the gavel is back in my hands.”

Forcing millions into the labor economy. Bingo! Therein lies the problem as they see it. The Rat Plantation defined by the Plantation Masters.
Where’s the satire? Ain’t that how it is?
Sorry, I didn’t see the semi-satire. Still believable.
Dip dip dip dip dip dip..get a job.
The Black Caucus demand fellow blacks to get back on the plantation. Why isn’t this considered a terrorist racist caucus?
Didn’t Lincoln buy land in Africa so the slaves could go home and is the land still available
” “The notion that a job is the answer to curing poverty and improving one’s life is a myth,” Bass contended. “Curing poverty has been the task of government since the 1960s’”
Every person that works will completely disagree. If you don’t work … you don’t eat! Like it or not, that’s how it truly is!
On last thing...………...NO-body rides for free!
32 percent black support for PT.
Is this REALLY satire????
“32 percent black support for PT.”
That’s encouraging. Guess my remarks only apply to the others.
