Jesse Jackson Jr. Rebukes Barack Obama, Bill Clinton and Joe Biden for Not Truly Knowing His Father During Memorial Service

FOXNews.com:

During his father’s memorial service on Saturday, Jesse Jackson Jr. offered a sharp rebuke of the tributes given by former Democratic presidents Bill Clinton, Barack Obama and Joe Biden, noting that the trio shared one thing in common: they didn’t really know his father. 

 

"Yesterday I listened for several hours of three United States presidents who do not know Jesse Jackson," Jackson Jr. said on Saturday. 

 

The reverend’s son called out the idea that his father’s life wasn’t defined by the "political order," but by a commitment to those who were marginalized. "He maintained a tense relationship with the political order, not because the presidents were White or Black, but the demands of our message, the demands of speaking for the least of these — those who are disinherited, the damned, the dispossessed, the disrespected — demanded not Democratic or Republican solutions, but demanded a consistent, prophetic voice that at no point in time sold us out as a people," Jackson Jr. continued.

Of course, no one exploits tragedies better than Democrats, so no surpise here that Biden, Obama and Clinton would take turns and use Jesse Jackson's funeral service to attach Trump. The irony here, of course, is that Trump knew Rev. Jackson better than any of them, helped Jackson out a lot back in the day and genuinely seeemd to like the guy. There's also that time, back in 2008, when Jackson lashed out at Obama for not speaking to issues important to black people and while Jackson would later apologize to Obama for the remarks, after his passing, the irony of Jackson's often strained relationship with establishment Democrats isn't lost today.

Rep. Lauren Boebert Proves Waht a Waste of Time it Was Inviting Hillary Clinton to House Hearings

PBS.org:

The House Oversight Committee's deposition of Hillary Clinton was paused after Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert sent a photo of the closed-door proceeding to a conservative influencer. Benny Johnson, a right-wing Youtuber, posted a photo of Clinton at the deposition online and said Boebert had provided it. 

 

The deposition is being recorded on video, but Comer has said that will only be released after Clinton's attorneys have a chance to review it. The committee's rules do not allow outside press or photographers to take photos of the proceedings. Boebert, R-Colo., was defiant in remarks to reporters as she left the closed-door deposition for Hillary Clinton. 

 

Boebert had violated committee protocol by sharing a photo of Clinton with a conservative influencer who posted it online. When asked why she had shared the photo, Boebert responded, "Why not?" Boebert also sarcastically said she admired Clinton's blue suit and wanted to show it to everyone.

What a complete and utter farce, That is after begging for Hillary Clinton (who outside of the 2016 presidential election, has owned GOP whenever they confront her) to testify on the Epsteain files, knowing damn well she'd deny everything, much less behind closed doors all the while knowing that it's her husband Bill (who should be the focus here when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein). And then an unserious person like Rep. Boebert chooing to leak a photo of Hillary mid-trial to a pro-MAGA figure--any wonder why this GOP can't get anything done?
