BLM rejects Kamala Harris nomination

[TastySuckToy]

From the official BLM Twitter/X account:

Timeline of Events

Sunday
•Joe Biden drops out.
•Kamala Harris announces campaign with Biden endorsement.
•Kamala Harris says she is going to work hard to earn the nomination.
•Kamala Harris makes calls to party delegates.

Monday
•Kamala Harris continues making calls to party delegates.
•Kamala Harris makes two public speeches.
•AP announces Kamala Harris has secured enough delegates to be the Democratic Nominee (Monday night).
•Kamala Harris releases this statement, noting she has worked hard to “go out and earn this nomination” as promised (Monday night).

A 24-hour process of talking to party bosses is not democratic, nor is it a process Democrats should be proud of. We do not live in a dictatorship. Delegates are not oligarchs.

Installing Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee and an unknown vice president without any public voting process would make the modern Democratic Party a party of hypocrites.We call on the @DNC to create a process that allows for public participation in the nomination process, not just a nomination by party delegates.

Even BLM recognizes what the democrat party is doing, and calls it out for being the dictatorship party that it is.

The party 'saving' democracy.

The GOP has filed a complaint with the FEC over Harris being given access and control over the Biden for President campaign war chest.

Until that complaint is resolved, any money spent on Harris may have to be repaid if the complaint is found in favor of the GOP. Money Harris doesn't have.

 

[Sean Renaud]

Why is the GOP filing a complaint. I thought Harris was a clown?

 

[Chobham]

The party of Jackson has become a joke. Their name is an aberration of the language because they are anything but what they call themselves. They've corrupted everything they've laid their pustulous fingers on. Liars and wannabe tyrants.

 

[Saint_Ann]

I guess Trump is the blacker candidate.

Thought POTUs had immunity…….

Harris has the money she raised since Sunday. She doesn't need the Biden money right away.

Surprised BLM doesn't embrace Kamala seeing they care as much about actual black lives as she does.

Its insane that this domestic terrorist group is calling out the Dems while they still don't have the stones to admit BLM is nothing but a violent scam.

 

[schism666]

right, now they will all vote for trump.

 

[YDB95]

Let's see if they're stupid enough to keep it up with the predictions of massive gains for Trump among Black voters now...I certainly wouldn't put it past them.

You don't even know the names of the political parties, so your opinions are worthless.

Funny, in this case I'm just agreeing with the BLM opinion. But apparently you think the BLM opinion is worthless, gotcha.

This may be.

But at least they concede when they lose.

Not clear at this point why you’d think having a convention that feels like a cult, looks like a yard party for WWE fans and is 80% Botox - and that’s just the fucking guys - would strike you, or Jefferson, as any less of an aberration.

BLM used the correct name of the Democratic Party. You got it wrong.

So are you trying to tell everyone that Trump is still barricaded in the White House?

BLM didn’t “reject Harris”.

BLM wants some kind of instant national primary. That’s not feasible.

There are no other candidates so a primary would just be a pointless formality.

Much ado about nothing.

You’ll have to find something else to pretend to care about.

 

[glamorilla]

it's code for "what do we get out of it?".

You've whined about me saying democrat party instead of democratic party before. I didn't care then and still don't care now.

BLM is also a pretty nebulous organization, so an "official" statement is somewhat meaningless.

The fact that the B LM "leadership" has also had some issues with institutional propriety makes their pronouncement even less impactful, imho.



This election was always going to come down to grassroots voters, not "elites".

Let’s see how the grassroots BLM members, etc, respond to Kamala.

The flood of first time donations to ActBlue, and the volunteers lining up to help with the campaign, portends well for Kamala, imho. (And she still needs to maintain the support of older, moderate Biden voters in the Democratic coalition.)

Referring to the Democratic Party as the “democrat party” is a sure sign that someone has been marinating in right-wing propaganda for so long that their opinion is worthless. All they do is parrot right-wing talking points.

As opposed to what you do...lol.

Their brain has likely been “marinating” in a mixture of consciousness altering legal and illegal substances as well.

Recent events have proven that there's nothing democratic about that party.

And you're a democrat, therefore your opinion is worthless.
