"It’s not the messaging, folks. This country simply loves white supremacy," tweeted The Atlantic contributor Jemele Hill.

You guys should see the garbage I get from Black Voters Matter. They sent me a couple of texts last week pointing out that the KKK and Proud Boys are rallying support and asking if they could count on me for my support.

Just absolute, bottom feeding, disgusting political pandering.

All I saw on CNN, MSNBC, etc today was mentions of racism and Trumpism in response to the VA elections.........what they seemed to gloss over though is Virginia elected the first black, female, veteran, immigrant Lt Governor in the history of the state.

If that doesn't put a dent in the racism narrative, not sure if anything will.

Just to be clear, this 1) isnt a reputable organization, and 2) is the same kind of language the leader of the republican party uses daily in his text outreach...

And I grant you that his organization is also not reputable.

I don't know what political orgs are reputable... Black Voters Matter clearly isn't, and is clearly trying to mislead African Americans with dishonest messaging. It's pretty disgusting.

We saw some pretty awful race-based messaging out of the McAuliffe camp too. And even saw the fake rally attendees from the Lincoln Project.

It's quite clear that groups like those don't want to win on good ideas and good policy. They want to lie, deceive and divide in hopes that strategy leads to victory.

I can't imagine people wanting to give these a-holes more money and more influence in the form of expanded federal government. Who would want that?

To be fair, banning books in senior year AP literature classes because one conservative mom got her panties in a wad because her son had nightmares was one of the late moves from Glenn Youngkin's campaign.

Mind you, this is an AP Literature course so the list of books was available from the beginning of the year and is set at the national level. And it is for advanced students seeking college credit. Sure seemed like the mom and the Youngkin campaign were pushing for trigger warnings for parents.
