Do people really understand why MAGA wants to cut the federal workforce?

[CEE DOG]

Do people really understand why MAGA wants to cut the federal workforce? The racist MAGA has hated the federal work force since the civil rights movement. The federal workforce consist of the largest employer of minorities in America. To these racist low life people they understand this is the path to hurting black middle and upper class families. It's a shame that they have gotten minorities in the MAGA cult to think otherwise. Cutting these jobs as they see will get rid of jobs that make our community strong. Trump is the great white hope they have always wanted since integration. Be careful what you wish for because it will come to forward. When reality sets in it will be to late.

That would hurt a lot of us in the DC metro, but I don't see those jobs going away. Those jobs are important to all groups of people.

Importance may not matter to them....
You would think Education is important too....

Great post. It appears that not only Democrats but black people have a communication problem. IMHO, this isn’t hammered home enough, particularly to those in our community that allege trump is better for the economy….The question is who’s economy? Though it’s a minority, it’s too much for my liking. Unfortunately, again IMHO, there is a minority of AA that don’t want to see black women excel for what ever reason (election reference). Talking about cutting off one’s nose to spite your face.

The federal union is already getting ready for court. It's going to be a battle but the word has come down from the top. 1.5 million are on the chopping block which means 3 to 4 contractors for every civilian jobs. Black people say racism doesn't exist anymore. Many are on social media saying they voted for Trump to do this. What these uneducated functional illiterates don't understand is that it flows down to the private sector such such as service jobs, construction and manufacturing. Ignorance is real.

that's what I told the idiots that voted for this guy, they have no idea what they have done. I have friends that were at the fcc over 30 years and he cut several of them when they pissed him off the first time he was in office. He had total control now, imagine what he is going to do this term smh

When you showcase programs as being mainly BLACK only-guess what you get?

We already KNOW who mainly benefits from these programs-WHITE PEOPLE especially in RED STATES. Like Alabama and Missouri.
Hard to give a BLEEP about education-when you are at the bottom as 9 of the 10 states are who happen to be RED.

The GOP feeds on ignorance. Not all white folks know how to id a Section 8 house. Not everyone knows the coding on a kid who has this or that services. And most services are not limited to poor kids-free breakfast was given to all kids at one point.

Because as Cee said WE work those federal jobs-we know who uses governmental services. Because we are always on the FRONT line.

In 1980 the Southern Strategy used the Black welfare mother in the campaign. The images hit hard. In 1988 there were the Willie Horton commercials.

These were thanks to the late Lee Atwater. Here is a short version of an interview. The longer one was by The Nation magazine.

However, while many probably thought that Reagan would only go after Black folks, he went after others. (Affirmative action was also attacked during the campaign.) Policies like college financial aid was attacked, and unions were attacked. Actually, the Reagan years were not good for unions, and the membership has dropped in percentage to the population (article).

Moffet calls the strike a "calamity," not just for the fired air-traffic controllers, but for unions everywhere. Back in 1981, labor negotiations centered around the size of workers' raises. Subsequently, management began going after all unions for concessions and laying people off, he says.

Georgetown University historian Joseph McCartin is writing a book about the PATCO strike. Prior to PATCO, it was not acceptable for employers to replace workers on strike, even though the law gave employers the right to do so, he says.

The PATCO strike eased those inhibitions. Major strikes plummeted from an average of 300 each year in the decades before to fewer than 30 today.

This is a B.S. narrative. B.W. voted for Harris @ around 92%, B.M. voted for Harris @around 80%. The highest margins of any voter segments by far. People look for a reason to be outraged with each other. If you have smoke talk to W.W. and Latino Men. But y'all probably sked to go at them. So you come at B.M. because we're an easy target.

Walmart and Harley Davidson announced this morning that they aren't giving up contracts to minority suppliers this morning. This is what blacks who support Trump don't understand. They said do to pressure from the Republican senators and Congressman. Black businesses are going to be destroyed over the next 4 years for the lack of knowledge of what DEI is. Sad that black people actually voted to demise our community! I have a roommate from college that's the VP of minority suppliers for the Auto industry. There division is being dismantled over the next year. White folks have used Trump to literally destroy the new black wall Street without guns or riots. They simply used ignorant uneducated Americans like Tim Scott and Clarence Thomas along with Bryon Donaldson. Folks better buckle up because this is going to have major problems in the middle and upper class black families.

Yet come for black folks. Who are yelling to be left alone.

What's sad is that people are running marathons with this lie in their mouths. Between 85-90% of all Black Americans voted for Candidate Harris. What more can anyone ask? Black Americans were Candidate Harris' highest demographic by 30+ basis points. Some people are being emotional and illogical.

If 90% of the Black vote isn't enough. Imagine if 8 million additional immigrant votes were added to the rosters. They are not democratic loyalist. Your vote would mean even less.

Also, remember when people immigrate to this country they don't give a damn about Black Americans agendas or issues. None of them are trying to come here and align with Black Americans unless their using us to make money.

This election was a double edge sword. Black Americans were going to take some L's with either Candidate.

Black men are the lowest hanging fruit on the tree. We have no protections or recourse for attacks to the Black Male Identity, so people feel safe coming after us.

My post wasn't about saying that more black people voted for Trump because we know that is a lie. Mines was towards folks like Tim Scott and Clarence Thomas and Bryon Donaldson who literally support the turning back of getting rid of programs that moved us forward.

Still why are you coming for this small % of Black Men? They didn't put Trump in the White House. I still believe it's misguided, selective, fake outrage.

Have you ever dealt with Walmart corporate? They are one of the largest most important companies in America. Walmart doesn't give a flying fudge what the government says. Walmart has the best lawyers money can buy. If you believe Walmart grew to become as large and powerful as they are without running afoul of the government. I have some ocean front property for sale along the western city limits Las Vegas for sale.

Clarence Thomas has been against every peace of legislation that has helped the black community. His wife which is white has been on record calling black people nikkers. Tim Scott openly stated that there is no such thing as racism in America. He has literally been against every peace of legislation that has helped our community. Bryon Donaldson has done the same as Tim Scott. You seriously want me to respect these dudes? The government system whether city, county, state and federal employees over 65% of the black community whether it is directly or on contracts from janitorial work to manufacturing or white collar work. When DEI and these contracts are reversed the black community from top to bottom will be hurt. I have no respect for black people who harm my community. What these people have done is no different from the Larry Hoovers or Big Meech has done with drugs and gangs. In fact it is more harmful because they had the power to stop it yet they have promoted the harm by supporting legislation. Everyone is entitled to their views but that is mines and I will never change it towards those so called black people in skin only.

Too many folks choose to bask in hyperbole rather than improving their reading skills. I’m pretty sure my post stated, “though a minority” as well….as if two things can’t be mutually exclusive but true. Good post! The problem with social media though is you run into folks with agendas that take things out of context and add manure that you’re not addressing. The extreme left wing race warriors and right wing Nazi sympathizers are twins and a waste of your time and energy.

Some of you are agents of chaos too. Like I said it's so easy to attack black men. Thomas isn't the only one. Where is your outrage for the Caucasian men and women? I just want to know why people are selective in their outrage. Write some articles and make some posts about those Caucasians. Your cowardly little hearts would never allow you to do that because you know their would be repercussions and consequences.
Carry on with the easy targets cowards.

Trump only made marginal gains with Black male voters -- maybe a 1 percent difference between 2020 and 2024, according to exit polls. Of the minority groups, there were significant shifts among Asian and Latino voters in favor of Trump.

The difference between you and Kendrick is I have stood up for black people in corporate America all my career. I was the first and only black test engineer for a major DoD contractor for five years until I challenged them to take it to court. Unlike the Clarence Thomas, Tim Scott and Bryon Donaldson of the world I put my heart to support my community first. Cowards are those who support white supremacy like black Trump supporters.

I think the point Dasleeper is making is a point MANY are actually making as well.

We saw NOTHING but hit pieces at black men. It's always an attack on black men no matter what the actual data says.

Where is that energy to call out everyone else?? Including black women? Including Jill Stein, Chase Oliver and even Cornel West.

Because all we tend to see on social media is what black women are NOT going to do. It's all about them and you see folks BEGGING them for help.

I don't give a dam about what and who they are blaming. My point is fuk the Clarence Thomas, Tim Scott and Bryon Donaldson's of the world. Those who support them and thought who think like them are trash and should be exiled from the black community. If anyone has a problem with my view screw you too!

Typical nego elitists. The DoD is not exactly capitalist corporate America.

Also, how did this become a personal comparison. Someone must be butt hurt.

Hey did you ever see the movie Blackhawk Down?....

Dude just because you are in your feelings because you voted for Trump Trump's love the black sell outs. Anyone who is a fan of Tim Scott, Clarence Thomas and Bryon Donaldson loves white folks.
