There is so much wrong with this four-minute clip I could write a dissertation on it, but let’s just stick with the highlights.
Ok stick with me here.. (and I explain below) After going after Muslim Americans for years now…now the same right wing is trying to get Muslim Americans to go after the trans community.. https://t.co/2glsfKQWWt

For starters, I liked her better as the Press Secretary. Have you ever seen so much smugness radiating from a single bimbo?
I literally paused and restarted this video about eight times because I wanted to start rebutting, but had to tell myself, “Hold fire, let her finish her point.” As it turns out, she did in fact save the best for last– but I’m getting ahead of myself.
Let me begin with the forest before looking at the trees: the entire premise is that Republicans (or right wingers or conspiracy theorists, as all these terms are interchangeable to Jen) see Muslims as a political tool in the new war against transgenderism, despite literally wanting all of their heads on pikes a few years ago. In her words, “The GOP is trying to recruit Muslim Americans. . . against another tiny marginalized group of Americans.”
Muslims in the US are only against the trans movement because Republicans tricked them into it, according to Jen. Never mind that they tend to be rather culturally conservative– in some cases extremely so– and adhere to traditional gender roles. None of that came from the Quran, nope. All straight from the Right Wing Playbook. (Or Grand Old Playbook, as she so wittily has on the screen behind her.)
Well, well, I guess Democrats are pro-equality after all. They just infantilized Muslims to the same degree they do black people.
Not only is this WILDLY insulting to every free-thinking Muslim in America, it’s just intentionally incendiary. And I know it’s intentional because of all the stupid ass things she says throughout the video to try to prove that Republicans = evil.
For starters, she uses quotes from Republicans expressing concern over Sharia law and terrorism to demonstrate how much they hate Muslims. Um. . . none of us think Muslims always equal Sharia law and terrorism. Do you think Muslims are all Sharia terrorists, Jen? Because that’s kind of what it sounds like when you literally use the terms “Islam” and “Sharia” interchangeably.
Then she pulls a quote from Donald Trump in which he offhandedly mentions how the whole transgender ideology seems to have come out of nowhere, introducing it with, “Even he doesn’t exactly know why he’s attacking them.”
What did Trump say?
“It’s amazing how strongly people feel about that, you see I’m talking about cutting taxes, people go like that [small clap], I talk about transgender, everyone goes crazy. Who would’ve thought– five years ago, you didn’t know what the hell it was.”
Which, to you and me, sounds like someone marveling at how this ideology seemingly came out of nowhere and has ignited a lot of strong feelings. Both apt observations.
To Jen Psaki, however, it sounds like the poster boy of segregation himself, George Wallace:
“You know, I tried to talk about good roads and good schools and all these things that have been part of my career and nobody listened. And then I began talking about n*****s and they stomped the floor.”
What Jen didn’t clarify is that Wallace said this after losing an election in which he didn’t touch the race issue and refused the endorsement of the KKK, only to be demolished by his super segregationist opponent. So that’s not the same thing AT ALL.
But it does lead me to the end of the video, in which Jen Psaki reads aloud the aforementioned Wallace quote, but instead of saying the n-word she substitutes it with “black people.”
Yeeeeeikes.
It reminds me of this Dave Chapelle bit:

The thing about a slur is that it’s intended to “disparage” or “harm the reputation” of a person. It’s certainly not a synonym, especially when words are literally violence according to some people on the left. So I find it WILDLY inappropriate for Jen to replace THE racial slur of all racial slurs with “black people.” Because once again, that’s not the same thing at all.
It’s honestly not even remarkable that Jen Psaki managed to pack more racism into one four-minute segment than the entire GOP primary field has managed to cobble together since Vivek Ramaswamy first declared his candidacy. Because racists gonna racist, and Jen Psaki is verifiably a racist.

“see Muslims as a political tool”
Jen would know all about that, seeing as how democrats have been weaponizing demographics for ages. Rile up any given group du jour to get votes with firebrand campaigning (“conservatives want to kill trans people!” except no conservative worth anything has said that). Once the elections are over and democrats sweep, they completely ignore the issue they campaigned on.
Accuse your opponent of that to which you are guilty. That is the Democrat way.
Just a heads-up, people without Twitter can no longer watch the videos. If they are part of the story, you may want to host a copy on Rumble or something.
It’s fixed now, kind of.
