NBA star LeBron James, whose net worth is estimated at $1 billion, endorsed Georgia’s Democrat Senator Raphael Warnock on the day Americans go to the polls for the 2022 midterm elections, saying, “We’ve been oppressed for so long.”
James, who sponsored his left-wing “More Than a Vote” campaign in 2020 to fight mythic “voter suppression” in Georgia, claimed in an Instagram post late on Monday evening that he wants “change” in Georgia, and so he urged voters to vote for the same guy who is already in office there.
“Obviously, tomorrow is Election Day, and there’s only one choice when voting for senator, and that’s Raphael Warnock,” James told his fans.
James told his followers that he believes “change” is advanced by keeping the same people in office.
“I think from the Black community — and obviously our league is predominately Black athletes, Black players, Black men — our community, we talk and speak about change a lot,” James said. “So, in order to have change we have to get out and actually put our mouths and put our hands and put our pens and pencils to the polls. Starting in your community, then it starts in the city, then out to state, and then all the way out the country, we have an opportunity to be able to say that you’ve done your due diligence to try to help create change in your community.”
The billionaire athlete then added that he has been “oppressed for so long.”
“We’ve been oppressed for so long,” James added. “Obviously, I had the More Than A Vote initiative when we was in the bubble. I was very active with that. So many musicians and athletes and leaders was able to come on board with us. But we’ve been oppressed for so long..

Figures he would endorse a radical USA hater
Gee, a multimillionaire who is so repressed. Who knew the trials and tribulations he has gone through in his exalted life?
I’m black; he’s stupid.
Didn’t he tell us that he was afraid to leave home (in a gated White development) because White cops and White racists would kill him?
Stick to basketball moron
Stuff a jock in it LeBron. You’ve had it so damn tough here in America. I don’t know why you don’t take your ass back to your home country.
He’s so oppressed. Poor thing ... straight from high school to a multi-million dollar NBA contract.
Yeah. Poor oppressed black man who lives in such a horrible nation he earned a billion dollars chasing a ball.
I'd like to get a job or a position only because I have darker skin...
I'd like to skate thru college without having to actually take the courses let alone pass them....
I'd like to have free food, housing, meds, summer camps, college, transportation and a free phone.....
in reality, I would like to be able to walk down a street in NYC or Chicago and not fear for my life from these oppressed people.....
The big ape has been oppressed for so long they can’t keep him off TV 🤪
And who have the oppressors been since 1776 - Democrats. Billionaires should keep their mouths shut.
“”He lives in Hollywood. He can’t vote here.”” (Georgia)
When has that ever stopped any democRAT? Come on, man.
I’m reminded of a show by Michael Savage when he played a talk by Maya Angelou of self-pitying blather and he made his comments dramatically “Oh, I feel the slave days. Oh, the pain of slavery even now.”
Angelou passed away in 2014 and at that time had a net worth of $10 million. She was a bestselling author and public speaker.
“As Maya began earning more money, she started turning to real estate and, later, financial advisors. Her builder-husband taught her the value of buying up homes as investments, which she continued to do throughout much of her career....” MarketWatch Jun 20, 2014
Stockholm Syndrome?
Before I saw the one billion dollar reference I assumed he shot hoops for cash against pals in playground pickup matchups and lived in a nailed together shack behind an auto salvage yard. "One of his Brentwood homes is for sale at 20.5 million dollars" March 3, 2021.
Begs the question.
How long has Hershel Walker been oppressing you Labron?
Oh I get it, Mr. Walker is the house Negro.
Right Labron?
Racist.

Great LBJ quotes.
One I remember (according to some versions) is when the worsening LA Watts riots got going on live TV (August 11 to 16, 1965. he held his head and said to aides “The n———s, the n-———s, how could they do this to me?”
Wife-beating Marxist Warnock and Lebron are Satanic brothers.
LeBron James isn't endorsing anyone; his Communist Chinese handlers are.
