Congresswoman Makes R********ns Demand on the House Floor: 'Pay Us What You Owe Us'

Massachusetts Rep. Ayanna Pressley appeared to call for r********ns for the country’s black citizens during a House floor speech Thursday.

The far-left Democrat and member of the self-proclaimed “squad” spoke at length about a perceived systemic bias against b***k A******ns.

Pressley, describing the Black L***s M****r movement as a “mandate” on all of America, said it is time for the country to “pay us what you owe us.”

“I rise today on behalf of every black family that has been robbed of a child,” Pressley said.

“On behalf of every family member that has been forced to see their loved one lynched on national television. Driving while black. Jogging while black. Sleeping while black. We have been criminalized for the very way we show up in the world. Under the harsh gaze of far too many, my black body is seen as a threat, always considered armed,” she added.

“Centuries of institutionalized oppression will not be undone overnight, for r****m in America is as structural as the marble pillars of this very institution,” Pressley continued.

“With the power of the pen, we must legislate accountability, dismantle these systems and move in the direction of justice and healing.”

Referring to widespread racial and civil unrest since the May 25 death of G****e F***d in Minnesota, Pressley appeared to demand r********ns for b***k A******ns.

“There is a rallying cry in communities across the nation. Black L***s M****r is a mandate from the people,” she said.

“It’s time. Pay us what you owe us. Our black skin is not a crime, it is the beautiful robe of nation builders.”

Rep. Ayanna Pressley: "Black L***s M****r is a mandate from the people. It's time -- pay us what you owe us. Our Black skin is not a crime. It is the beautiful robe of nation-builders."

Pressley has previously expressed support for efforts to defund police departments and to end qualified immunity, which protects police officers from lawsuits.

“Qualified immunity shields police from accountability, impedes true justice, and undermines the constitutional rights of every person in this country,” Pressley said in a statement earlier this month.

Pressley’s apparent call for r********ns, though, might not find a great deal of support in Congress.

A Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted this week found that only one in five respondents said they support using “taxpayer money to pay damages to descendants of ens***ed people in the United States.”

The poll revealed that around 80 percent of Republicans said they were opposed to financial r********ns, while roughly a third of Democrats supported r********ns.

Only one in 10 white respondents supported the idea, compared to roughly half of black respondent.

Democratic p**********l nominee Joe Biden has said he is in support of exploring the feasibility of offering financial r********ns to both black and Native Americans, Newsweek reported.

“If, in fact, there are ways to get direct payments for r********ns, I want to see it,” Biden said earlier this month during a virtual conversation with the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.

Pressley was floated as a potential Biden running mate last week by Vanity Fair.

“I’m just following the work and wherever the work takes me. I wasn’t planning to run for City Council. I wasn’t planning to run for Congress. I’m just following the work. So wherever the work takes me, that’s where I’m going,” she told the outlet.

I have reoperations for her, the tobacco is only about a foot high, the corn is maybe two feet and I don't see any cotton this year though we had a bunch last year here in southern Virginia. We could probably use her help with chopping tobacco, I'd like two ears boiled with butter on the side and salt and pepper and she can forgo having her tender finger cut by cotton burls later this year.

Oh, that's right, she and her ilk didn't have to go through that and still don't. If she wants r********ns, which to me means her being paid money, she needs to get her sorry ass out and nurture that tobacco, hoe that corn and praise the lord that cotton ain't being raise this year.

I have reoperations for you, it involves a couple of black eyes you'll get from your boyfriend, the garbage left on you door step by the winos and shootersup.

Please Woman, get a real life and realize how good you have it here as apposed to how your long ago and present ancestors had and have it. Quit your b***hing and try, though I realize that'll be hard for you, to quit being an obstacle and actually be a contributing member of society. Mike

Are you calling her a hoerer.

I used to go with a girl in Iowa and every time I went to pick her up she was working the garden.
Turned out that she was the best dammed hoerer in the county.

Yeah, Ms. Pressley, and what about all the Black babies who have been robbed of a LIFE!! Go sit in an a******n clinic and watch all those little human beings being murdered by the hundreds of thousands, and then let's talk about who owes who what!

HOW MANY BLACK CHILDREN HAVE BEEN ROBBED OF A FAMILY??

Yes, non-Black women have a******ns, too, but not nearly as many as Black women. The a******n rate for black women is almost five times that for non-Black women. Wouldn't that equal about as many s***es there were??? I really wish she would answer that question for me...

If we cough up money for these asses, in a few years they will demand more. It will never end. I say, let's counter offer. A one time only one way ticket for every black man, woman, child and this is inclusive for everyone who is even .01 percent black who is unhappy, to any country that will take them. No return visa will be considered. Clean out the jails and send them too! If we have more funds, open up the deal to every muslin, atheist, brown or yellow skinned or white and all malcontent trouble makers. Give them 6 months to decide and prepare for departure and relinquish citizenship as an American citizen. For those who stay, make sure they realize that all special treatment will stop and they will be like every other US citizen, no better or worse! No more b***hing about s***ery, monuments, f**gs or war of aggression. Let us go deeper in debt if necessary, but let's end this crap now.
